Patent ID: 8387178

Claim:
A juvenile product comprising: a frame including a rail, the rail including first and second rail sections; a latch assembly coupling the first and second rail sections and configured to reside in a latched state for an in-use orientation of the rail; and a pair of torsion springs disposed between the latch assembly and a respective one of the first rail section and the second rail section and configured to be under increasing tension as the latch assembly nears the latched state such that a bias force applied by the pair of torsion springs increasingly drives the rail away from the in-use orientation when the rail is near the in-use orientation with the latch assembly not in the latched state; wherein each torsion spring includes a pair of windings disposed along opposing sides of the first or second rail section, and further includes a bail extending from the pair of windings in which the first or section rail section is captured.
