Actual Inventor: Chuan-Kaj HSU Address for service A J PARK, Level 11, 60 Marcus Clarke Street, Canberra ACT 2601, Australia in Australia: Invention Tide: BABY PLAYPEN WHOSE ENCLOSURE CLOTH WILL NOT BE RUBBED OR WORN OUT BY THE POSTS The following statement is a full description of this invention, including the best method of perforMing it known to us& 1762269-1' COMS ID No: ARCS-216220 Received by IP Australia: Time (I-tm) 14:41 Date 2008-12-08 08/12 2008 MON 16:38 FAX +64 4 472 3358 E1005/019 0 BABY PLAYPEN WHOSE ENCLOSURE CLOTH WILL NOT BE o RUBBED OR WORN OUT BY THE POSTS The present innovation relates to a playpen and, more particularly, to a baby playpen or cot for receiving a baby.
00 5 A conventional baby playpen comprises a support frame and an Senclosure cloth mounted on the support frame. The support frame includes 00 four support posts for supporting the enclosure cloth. The enclosure cloth has four corners each provided with a mounting portion mounted on a respective one of the support posts of the support frame to attach the enclosure cloth to the support posts of the support frame. However, the mounting portions of the enclosure cloth directly contact the support posts of the support frame, so that when the enclosure cloth is mounted on or detached from the support frame, the mounting portions of the enclosure cloth are easily rubbed or worn by the support posts of the support frame due to a frequent frictional contact, thereby decreasing the lifetime of the enclosure cloth.
In accordance with the present innovation, there is provided a playpen, comprising a support frame, an enclosure cloth mounted in and spaced from the support frame, and a plurality of fixing bars each mounted between the support frame and the enclosure cloth and each having a first portion connected with the support frame and a second portion connected with the enclosure cloth.

0 Another objective of the present innovation is to provide a playpen, 00 O 5 wherein the enclosure cloth is secured on the connecting strip of each of the O fixing bars, and the connecting strip of each of the fixing bars protrudes 00 Soutwardly from the opening of the mounting tube of the respective support post to separate the enclosure cloth from the mounting tube of each of the support posts so that the enclosure cloth will not directly contact with the mounting tube of each of the support posts to prevent the enclosure cloth from being rubbed or worn out due to a frequent frictional contact.
Further benefits and advantages of the present innovation will become apparent after a careful reading of the detailed description with appropriate reference to the accompanying drawings.
In the drawings: Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a playpen in accordance with the preferred embodiment of the present innovation.
Fig. 2 is an exploded perspective view of the playpen as shown in Fig.

The support frame 1 includes a plurality of support posts 11 for mounting a respective one of the fixing bars 2 and a plurality of fasteners 12 each abutting a respective one of the fixing bars 2 and each detachably locked onto a respective one of the support posts 11 to limit the respective fixing bar 2 on the respective support post 11 so as to prevent the respective fixing bar 2 from being removed from the respective support post 11.
Each of the support posts II of the support frame 1 has a sidewall provided with at least one mounting tube 111 for mounting the respective fixing bar 2. Each of the support posts 11 of the support fi-ame 1 is an elongate hollow body and has an inner portion provided with a hollow space 110. The mounting tube 111 of each of the support posts 11 extends into and is located in 3 COMS ID No: ARCS-216220 Received by IP Australia: Time 14:41 Date 2008-12-08 08/12 2008 MON 16: 39 FAX +64 4 472 3358 21008/019 00 the hollow space 110 of each of the support posts 11 I. The mounting tube 111 of each of the support posts 11 extends longitudinally through a whole length of 00 each of the support posts 11. The mounting tube I111 of each of the support posts 11 has a side provided with an opening 112. The opening 112 of the 00 mounting tube 111 of each of the support posts 11 extends longitudinally through a whole length of the mounting tube 1l1.
00 Each of the fixing bars 2 is mounted between a respective one of the support posts 11I of the support frame 1 and the enclosure cloth 3. The first portion of each of the fixing bars 2 is provided with an elongate fixing column 20 inserted into the mounting tube 111 of the respective support post 11I to attach each of the fixing bars 2 to the mounting tube 111 of the respective support post 11. The second portion of each of the fixing bars 2 is provided with an elongate connecting strip 21 connected with the enclosure cloth 3. The connecting strip 21 of each of the fixing bars 2 separates the enclosure cloth 3 from the mounting tube 111 of each of the support posts 11. The connecting strip 21 of each of the fixing bars 2 has a wedge-shaped profile. The connecting strip 21 of each of the fixing bars 2 extends from the fixing column 20 and has a size smaller than that of the fixing column 20. The connecting strip 21 of each of the fixing bars 2 extends through and protrudes outwardly from the opening 112 of the mounting tube 111 of the respective support post 11.
