Abstract:

A changing station includes base portions pivotally attached to a joining portion that also define receptacles for receiving arms of a barrier. A gap between the arms of the barrier is sized to receive the torso of an infant. A deformable insert secures to the barrier and engages the torso of the infant. A mat rests on the base portions and joining portions. The mat and base portions may be folded against the barrier for storage and transport. An actuator on the barrier is coupled to latches on the arms for releasing the barrier from the joining portion. In one embodiment, push rods couple the actuator to pins that disengage spring-loaded hooks from tabs protruding into the receptacles.
