ABSTRACT:
An infant mobile or other toy has a main housing which is attached to a crib, travel bed, changing table or other article of infant's furniture. For use with a furniture piece such as a crib with slatted sides, a screw on a pressure knob is threaded into the housing to clamp the slats are clamped between the pressure knob and a vertical clamping surface on the housing. For other furniture items such as travel beds and changing tables which have configurations unsuitable for use with such a pressure knob, a clamping assembly is used. The clamping assembly has a base which is removably attached to the housing, a bracket mounted on the base, and a screw threaded to an arm of the bracket. By rotating the screw, a part of the furniture piece can be clamped between a pressure pad on the screw and a vertical clamping surface on the base. To position the mobile over an infant when the base is attached at or near a corner of the furniture piece, the base is wedge shaped. The vertical clamping surface of the removable base is at an acute horizontal angle to the vertical clamping surface of the main housing, thus skewing the main housing. The inclination of the bracket arm can be changed and locked to provide lateral adjustments in the position of the pressure pad.
