Abstract: An infant crib in which the mattress is mounted on the frame in a secure position from which the mattress cannot be dislodged by an upward force beneath the mattress. A support panel has a plurality of straps affixed thereto which are of sufficient length to wrap around the surrounding rails or frame members of the crib and to be removably secured such as by Velcro fasteners. The mattress is placed on top of the thus secured panel. The fasteners are of sufficient strength such that when the fasteners are engaged the crib support panel can withstand a force from below the mounted panel of at least 224 pounds to meet safety standards and to prevent unintended dislocation of the crib mattress from its operative disposition. The invention can be embodied in a permanent crib structure or in a portable crib structure. The invention can also be embodied in a playpen or other infant furniture in which a mattress is to be secured.

Abstract: A collapsible infant's crib is provided with hinged sides which fold inwardly. The side hinges are constructed to be slightly non-linear when in the open position, to provide an inward bias which prevents undue flexing of the joint when the crib is in use. The crib is held in open position by a tightly fitting bottom which opposes the inward bias of the sides and holds them straight. The sides are attached to the end of the crib by means of brackets of unequal length such that the crib folds down very compactly.

Abstract: The bed frame having a swivel bracket for headboard mounting of the instant invention provides a wide range of lateral adjustment for mounting headboards of varying sizes and types. The disclosed invention includes a Hollywood or other type bed frame having side rails. First and second plates having elongated slots are rotatably mounted eccentrically to the ends of the side rails. The plates are manually rotatable between first and second positions. In the first position, the slots extend inwardly of the side rails, and in the second position, the slots extend exteriorly of the side rails. Means are provided for limiting the rotation of the plates, for guiding the plates during rotation, and for retaining the plates in selected ones of the first and second positions.
