Abstract

Abstract A lifting gate controlling device for controlling the front lifting gate of a baby's crib, comprising one pair of upper mounting bars respectively secured to the front two opposite corner posts of a baby's crib at an upper level, one pair of lower mounting bars respectively secured to said two opposite corner posts at a lower level, one pair of upper sliding blocks respectively movably mounted on said upper mounting bars to hold a transverse top rail of said lifting gate, and one pair of lower sliding blocks respectively movably mounted on said lower mounting bars to hold a transverse bottom rail of said lifting gate, wherein said upper mounting bars each has a V-shaped track incorporated in a P-shaped sliding track on a front face thereof for sliding either one of said upper sliding blocks by a sliding rod; said lower mounting bars each has a stop bolt at an upper end thereof to confine the upward movement of said lower sliding blocks. When the sliding rod of each upper sliding block is stopped at the V-shaped track, the front lifting gate is closed on the baby's crib. The front lifting gate is let down to open the baby's crib when the sliding rod of each upper sliding block is moved to a bottom terminal end of the P-shaped sliding track.
