Abstract
An infant care apparatus includes a base. A drive mechanism and a vibratory mechanism are coupled to the base. A movable stage is movably mounted to the base. An infant support is coupled to the movable stage. The drive mechanism imparts a first cyclic motion to the movable stage, and imparts a second cyclic motion to at least part of the movable stage independent of the first cyclic motion and to the vibratory mechanism so that the vibration motor vibrates the movable stage. The infant support is coupled to the movable stage and moves cyclically in both the first and second cyclic motions. The controller is configured to move the infant support in a selectably variable motion profile with selectable vibration modes selected from different selectably variable motion profiles and selectably different vibration modes for each of the different selectable variable motion profiles.
