Abstract: A security gate apparatus for attachment across an opening defined by first and second vertical surfaces, including a first gate panel and a second gate panel slidingly connected to the first gate panel so as to permit horizontal extension and retraction of the gate apparatus to a desired horizontal dimension. A first vertical leg is pivotably attached to an outer vertical member of the first gate panel by a first link means and a second vertical leg is pivotably connected to an outer vertical member of the second gate panel by a second link means. The security gate apparatus also includes means for locking the first and second gate panels in the desired horizontal dimension and at least one contact pad on a surface of the first and second vertical legs opposite the outer vertical members of the first and second gate panels, respectively.

Abstract: A swing assembly is provided in which low profile side members are used to support a seat member for gliding back and forth movement. The seat member may be rotated between sitting and inclined positions and includes a movable T-bar which is adapted to be pivoted forwardly in order to facilitate movement of an infant into and out of the seat.

Abstract: The present invention provides an infant seat which includes a shell for receiving an infant and an arcuate handle attached to opposing sides of the shell. The handle is movable to three operative positions including a rest position wherein the handle is positioned below the shell and above a plane defined by a lower surface of the shell, a rocking position wherein the handle is positioned below the lower surface of the shell to form an arcuate rocking support surface, and a carry position wherein the handle is positioned above the shell to be used as a carry handle.

Abstract: A bath ring is provided which is collapsible from a use to a storage position whereby the bath ring may be reconfigured to a compact configuration. The bath ring includes a base portion, a ring portion pivotally mounted to the base portion, a support post for supporting a rear section of the ring portion in spaced relationship to the base portion, and a T-shaped restraining bar pivotally mounted to the base portion and forming a front restraint which may be pivoted out of the way to place an infant on the base portion. In its collapsed position, the support post may be pivoted to a location underneath the base portion and the ring portion and T-shaped restraint may be pivoted rearwardly and downwardly toward the base portion.

Abstract: An infant seat which functions as an infant carrier, a glider, or a car seat. The car seat includes a base with an upwardly open cavity and a carrier connected to the base and at least partially contained within the cavity. The positioning of the carrier relative to the base may be adjusted to allow the carrier to move relative to the base or to lock the carrier to the base. In a locked configuration, seat belt receivers are properly positioned to receive an automobile seat belt, when the car seat is positioned on the seat of an automobile.

Abstract: A gate is provided for use as a closure device within a doorway and includes an L-shaped frame member which may be positioned in stationary relationship to the doorway and a panel member which is pivotally mounted to the frame member. The panel member carries a latching mechanism including a latch for engaging a lower horizontal extension of the frame member to prevent pivotal movement of the panel portion. In addition, a contact member is provided for contacting a surface of the doorway when the latch member is engaged with the frame. A release lever is provided for moving the contact member out of engagement to allow pivotal movement of the panel relative to the frame. A locking member is provided for preventing operation of the lever such that the locking member must be operated simultaneously with the lever in order to release the contact member.

Abstract: A crib light is provided having front and rear housing portions which cooperate to clamp the light to a horizontal rail of a crib. The rear housing portion may be removed to permit the front housing portion to be mounted flush to a vertical wall surface. In addition, a lens cover is provided adjacent to a light emitting aperture of the front housing portion for controlling the brightness of light emitted and a control circuit is further provided for automatically shutting the light off after a predetermined interval of time.
