Claim 1
Independent Claim
306 words
A baby crib comprising: a pair of longitudinally extending side frames; a pair of grille members extending transversely on opposing longitudinal ends of said side frames and fixedly secured to said side frames, said side frames and said grille members forming an internal crib cavity; a pair of bed floor members rotatably mounted to said side frames, each of said floor members having an axle member mounted on one end thereof; a pair of circular recesses formed within each of said side frames at a lateral mid-point for insert of said axle member; a plurality of locating holes formed through each of said side frames on opposing longitudinal ends of said side frames within said crib cavity; said locating holes being formed along an arc such that the distance from each of said locating holes to a corresponding circular recess in said side frame is a constant; said axle members extending transversely beyond the transverse extension of said side frames; said floor members for mounting within said crib cavity to provide a crib bottom by placing said extended axle members into respective circular recesses formed within said side frames, said floor members positionally located at a predetermined inclination by inserting an extended bolt member of said floor members into pairs of said locating holes of said side frames for supporting upper and lower portions of a baby's body; a pair of microphones mounted internal to said crib cavity, each of said microphones being mounted to a respective one of said side frames; a pair of moisture sensors located within each of said floor members for sensing moisture content of said floor members; means for vibrating said floor members responsive to an audio input to said pair of microphones; and, blower means for expelling air internal said crib cavity responsive to moisture sensing by said moisture sensors.
