ABSTRACT:
A child enclosure includes J-shaped frame base members that extend beyond the footprint of a fabric compartment preventing tipping. The fabric compartment of the enclosure closely fits the upright corner posts using tubes allowing a side support rod to be inserted in the upper side rails of the enclosure preventing downward side flex. The close fitting of the post tubes provides increased support to the side rails. The fabric compartment corners are covered at the top edge by a fabric panel to prevent a child from standing up in the corner to and provide increased strength to the side panels enhancing the side panel flex prevention feature. A rectangular frame is stabilized along the short axis by a separator support that prevents the short axis from collapsing. The rectangular frame also includes a U-shaped end piece that provides further support to the compartment along the end.
