Abstract (en)

The invention relates to a cot, particularly a nursery cot, having a drop side 2 wherein there is a mechanism 3 for raising and lowering the drop side 2 comprising complementary relatively slidable means 4, 5 on opposite ends of the drop side 2 and adjacent members 6 of the cot, and biassing means 7 adapted to secure the drop side 2 in the raised position and which allows the drop side 2 to move to the lowered position when the bias thereof is overcome. The relatively slidable means 4, 5 comprises a groove 8 in each end member 6, and projecting spigots 4 with enlarged heads (not shown) projecting from the opposite ends of the drop side 2. The enlarged heads are spaced from the opposite ends of the drop side 2 a sufficient distance to engage in the respective grooves 8, and allow relative sliding motion vertically. The grooves 8 are of T-shape in cross section, the enlarged heads essentially engaging in and sliding up and down in the "head" 9 of the "T", the shank of the "T" allowing for passage and sliding of the spigot 4, which is of less lateral dimension then the head. The groove 8 has an enlarged part 10 at the bottom, as viewed, for initial entry of the head and there is mounted therein a resilient buffer (not shown). <IMAGE>
