Patent ID: 8893326

Claim:
Frame suitable for use in a child's cradle ( 30 ) or in similar devices ( 50 ) wherein a structure ( 32 , 33 ) for containing a dynamic load requires support, the frame ( 31 ) comprising two flexible longitudinal laminae ( 40 , 41 ), parallel one to another and joined by at least one crosswise lamina ( 43 ), said longitudinal laminae being curved at least in one part ( 40 c , 41 c ) of their length to form a first section ( 40 a , 41 a ) resting on the ground, and a second section ( 40 b , 41 b ) for supporting said containing structure, each longitudinal lamina ( 40 , 41 ) being subjected to a torsion during a shaping process that produces a permanent deformation; characterized in that: said second section ( 40 b , 41 b ) being upwardly inclined; at least in the curved part ( 40 c , 41 c ), each longitudinal lamina ( 40 , 41 ) is subjected to either clockwise or anticlockwise torsion and the radius of curvature at the side of the lamina in the direction of torsion is less than the radius of curvature at the opposite side.
