Infant changing pad system

Abstract

The present invention relates to an infant changing pad system configured for changing the clothes and diapers of an infant and more particularly a changing pad system that includes an activity member held in contact with a changing pad. Optionally, the activity member is held in contact with the changing pad through the use of a base member.

1 . An infant changing system comprising: 
 (a) a changing pad; and,    (b) at least one activity member held in contact with the changing pad.    
     
     
         2 . The changing system of  claim 1 , wherein the changing pad and the activity member are held in contact with one another by an attachment member.  
     
     
         3 . The changing system of  claim 2 , wherein the attachment member is selected from the group consisting of a snap, hook and loop attachment, zipper, buckle, button, material loops, pivoting hinges, rotating members, and combinations thereof.  
     
     
         4 . The changing system of  claim 1 , wherein the contact of the activity member with the changing pad are selected from the group consisting of removeably attached, fixedly attached, in a position proximal to the changing pad, and combinations thereof.  
     
     
         5 . The changing system of  claim 1 , wherein the activity member is configured in the shape selected from the group consisting of an arch, a half arch, a curved or u-shaped member, and combinations thereof.  
     
     
         6 . The changing system of  claim 1 , wherein the activity member is composed of material selected from the group consisting of plastic, metal, wire, wood, and combinations thereof.  
     
     
         7 . The changing system of  claim 1 , wherein the changing pad is a cushion member with a top surface that is concave in shape.  
     
     
         8 . The changing system of  claim 1 , wherein the activity member and changing pad are held in contact through the means of a base member.  
     
     
         9 . The changing system of  claim 1 , wherein the base member is selected from the group consisting of a flat planar member, a stand member, feet members, straps, and combinations thereof.  
     
     
         10 . An infant changing system comprising: 
 (a) a base member; and,    (b) at least one activity member attached to the base member.    
     
     
         11 . The changing system of  claim 10 , wherein the base member and activity member are attached by an attachment member.  
     
     
         12 . The changing system of  claim 11 , wherein the attachment member is selected from the group consisting of a snap, hook and loop attachment, zipper, buckle, button, material loops, pivoting hinges, rotating members, and combinations thereof.  
     
     
         13 . The changing system of  claim 10 , wherein the base member and activity member are held in contact with a changing pad.  
     
     
         14 . The changing system of  claim 11 , wherein contact between the base member and activity member with the changing pad is fixedly attached, removeably attached, in a position proximal, and combinations thereof.  
     
     
         15 . The changing system of  claim 10 , wherein the activity member is composed of material selected from the group consisting of plastic, metal, wire, wood, and combinations thereof.  
     
     
         16 . The changing system of  claim 10 , wherein the base member is selected from the group consisting of a flat planar member, a stand member, feet members, straps, and combinations thereof.  
     
     
         17 . An infant changing system comprising: 
 (a) a changing pad;    (b) a base member; and    (c) at least one activity member held in contact with the changing pad.    
     
     
         18 . The changing system of  claim 17 , further including an attachment member for attaching the base member to the activity member.  
     
     
         19 . The changing system of  claim 18 , wherein the attachment member is selected from the group consisting of snap, hook and loop attachment, zipper, buckle, button, material loops, pivoting hinges, rotating members, and combinations thereof.  
     
     
         20 . The changing system of  claim 17 , wherein the base member and activity member are attached to one another and held in contact with the changing pad.  
     
     
         21 . The changing system of  claim 17 , wherein the contact between the base member and activity member with the changing pad is selected from the group consisting of actual contact, in a position proximal, and combinations thereof.  
     
     
         22 . The changing system of  claim 17 , wherein the activity member is composed of material selected from the group consisting of plastic, metal, wire, wood, and combinations thereof.  
     
     
         23 . The changing system of  claim 17 , wherein the base member is selected from the group consisting of a flat planar member, a stand member, feet members, straps, and combinations thereof.
