ABSTRACT:
An improved infant crib includes a top frame, and a base panel. The crib side walls each comprise a pair of hinged side panels which are hinged to each other, to the base panel, and to the top frame so as to collapse inwardly drawing the base and top frame together. The crib includes two end panels which are hinged to the top frame so as to rotate inwardly from a vertical position to a horizontal position on the same plane as the top frame. When the end panels are in a vertical position, the side panels are locked in place forming a rigid structure. Extendable legs slide downward from channels within the end panels to support the crib above the floor. The resulting structure is strong when assembled, yet is easily and quickly collapsible to form a compact package suitable for stacking storage.
