Abstract:
A lightweight childbed, comprising:a supporting panel comprising a first layer having a tension surface and a second layer overlapped with said first layer to define an edge holder, having a holder opening, between said first and second layers, wherein a tension of said tension surface is larger than a weight to be supported by said supporting panel, wherein said second layer is formed by folding four outer edges of said first layer to a bottom surface thereof overlappedly so as to form four edge sections of said second layer connected together end to end in such a manner that said four edge holders are formed between said four edge sections of said second layer and said first layer respectively while said holder opening opens inwardly; at least a side panel comprising a first sheet having a tension portion and a second sheet overlapped with said first sheet to define a receiving groove, having a groove opening, between said first and second sheets; and a bed frame, comprising: a boundary frame defining a central main window and having a size and shape adapted to be fittedly received in said edge holder so as to mount said first layer covering said main window to form said tension surface, wherein said boundary frame comprises two pairs of supporting arms connected end to end to form a rectangular structure that supports said supporting panel in a corresponding rectangular shape; at least a side frame, which is mounted on a longitudinal side of said boundary frame, defining a central side window and having a size and shape adapted to be fittedly received in said receiving groove so as to mount said first sheet covering said side window to form said tension portion, wherein said side frame is firmly connected at two ends of said first pair of supporting arms; and a pair of mattress guiders upwardly extended from said two second supporting arms of said boundary frame for retaining a mattress on said boundary frame in position, wherein said supporting panel further has two side notches provided on said first layer for registering with said two mattress guiders respectively.
