Baby Carrier Rocker

Abstract

An improved portable baby carrier rocking system in which allows almost all existing car seat carriers, baby carriers and baby bassinets to be attached to it. This baby carrier rocker mounts underneath the baby carrier and attaches to it by a simple strap. This baby carrier rocker can be battery operated or powered by an external power supply. It has different rocking speed settings and it will rock any bottom shaped carrier profile from flat to curved. An electric motor drives an offset link in which raises and lowers four supporting arms underneath the baby carrier, thus rocking the carrier back and forth from its center pivoting position. This baby carrier rocker has extendable and retractable legs in which flips out for greater rocker stability. Its novel compact size makes this rocker easily transportable and can be used in small confined areas like in restaurants, camping tents, in crowded rooms, areas etc.

         9 . A portable and collapsible baby car seat and baby carrier rocker comprising:
 a. of four retractable legs, in which can be extended outwards to lift the rocker if the ground and to increase the rocker stability, and these legs could fold inside bottom of the frame, thus preventing any need for further securing these legs in this position;   b. of these legs being able to be pivoted and locked outwards, forwards, and 90 degrees from the rocking motion direction from the frame for increased stability and greater sideways support without the need of any tools or the removal of any parts;   c. of four pivoting and folding arms in which can be extended and locked outwards 90 degrees from the rocker plate, and supports the bottom of different size and styles of baby car seat carriers, bassinets and baby carriers;   d. of four support arms in which pivots around the arm pins without the use of tools and folds and locks inside of the rocker plate for transport;   e. of four support arms in which it's ends are sloped to better match the bottom curve profile of a typical baby carrier, thus increasing the surface contact between the sloped bottom surface and baby carrier;   f. of support arms in which could have non slip rubber or hook and loop grip pads on its sloped end surfaces in order to help prevent the rocking item from sliding off of these arms, hook and loop should also be attached to the bottom surface of the item being rocked for additional grip;   g. of the support arms having sides on their outer edge in order to limit the sideways movement of the item being rocked acting as a positive stop;   h. of a clamp block in which is lifted to physically lock and to act as a wedge in between the two opposite support arms in both the extended and retracted position without the use of tools.   
     
     
         10 . A baby rocker comprising of
 a. a rocker plate in which pivots around its center and supports the four support arms;   b. a rocker plate in which pivots, and rocks around the center of gravity of the object being rocked, thus reducing the power requirements of the motor and battery consumption;   c. a rocking plate in which is connected by a motor and yoke near one end in which lifts and lower this rocker plate, thus rocking it back and forth;   d. an electric motor in which is variable speed and can be stopped and started from any angle or position with in its rocking range that positively drives the rocker plate in both the up and downwards position by a yoke towards one end of the rocking plate;   e. an electric motor in which will maintain a constant positive rocking speed regardless of any allowable rocking weight changes or with blankets added and which will stop turning if it stalls, or if the rocker should tilt or flip over;   f. an adjustable quick release safety strap connected to each side of the rocker plate, and follows the same path of a typical car-seat seat-belt, and is also used for attaching a baby bassinet, and a front and back adjustable strap could be attached to the rocker plate in this same way although not shown here, this strap could be attached by a buckle, by hook and loop, or by any other common attachment method.   
     
     
         11 . A baby rocker comprising of:
 a. a low profile frame in which maintains a low center of gravity of the item being rocked, as low to the ground as possible, thus increasing the rocking item stability and the baby safety;   d. having the capability of stopping and locking the rocking motion at any position with in its rocking range, thus allowing different fixed seat angles to better facilitate feeding, sleeping the baby, and for playing etc.;   e. a bassinet adapter frame in which attaches on top of the rocker plate support arms in its open position in which a baby bassinet, or any other type of baby carrier, stability and the baby safety;   f. the same strap as in  claim 10  attaching over the baby bassinet securing it to the bassinet adapter frame and to the four rocker support arms;   g. a bassinet adapter frame with fixed end plates on both opposite ends, to help stop the bassinet from sliding forward or backwards during rocking, or yet another method is adjustable end plates in which are lockable, and could be extended or retracted in the forward and rear rocking position as required;   h. a bassinet adapter frame that is hinged and can be folded onto itself for easy transport and storage, or another method of folding a bassinet adaptor frame is by having pivoting links in which folds into its self.
