Patent ID: 8341781

Claim:
A containment assembly for a child structured for multiple uses, said containment assembly comprising: a wall assembly having an inflatable construction and disposable in an expanded orientation and a collapsed orientation, said wall assembly comprising a closed, continuous configuration disposed in surrounding relation to a containment area when in said expanded orientation, said wall assembly further comprising a plurality of wall sections successively interconnected and collectively disposed to define said closed, continuous configuration, at least one of said wall sections comprising a window segment at least partially formed of an air permeable material and disposed and dimensioned to facilitate ventilation of said containment area, said window segment comprising at least two air permeable panels transversely spaced within said wall section, with an inflatable portion of said wall section extending about a periphery of said window segment in at least partially surrounding relation thereto, a closure assembly connected in covering relation to one end of said wall assembly and in closing relation to a corresponding end of said containment area, said wall assembly comprising an access opening oppositely disposed to said closure assembly and dimensioned to allow passage of a child there through into and out of said containment area, said wall assembly having a sufficient structural integrity when in said expanded orientation to be selectively disposed in either a first operative position or a second operative position, said first operative position at least partially defined by said closure assembly disposed in adjacent relation to a supporting surface of the containment assembly, said second operative position at least partially defined by said closure assembly being disposed at an upper end of said wall assembly, with said access opening being disposed adjacent the supporting surface of the containment assembly in an inverted orientation relative to the first operative position, and wherein said closure assembly is disposed and cooperatively structured with said wall assembly to define a support platform for a child, when said wall assembly is in said second operative position, and a base removably disposed within said containment area and dimensioned and configured to correspond to an interior surface portion of said containment area adjacent said closure assembly, said base further comprising a sufficient corresponding peripheral dimension relative to a correspondingly disposed interior surface of said wall assembly to frictionally and removably engage said interior surface of said wall assembly.
