Abstract
A collapsible infant bathtub in the present invention is made of a base, a headrest, a footrest and pressing devices. On each end of the headrest and footrest is respectively provided with a slider to receive each head end and foot end of the base. When being pulled outward along each skirt of the base, each slider will touch the slant surface of the button of each pressing device to force each button to shrink inside for each slider to pass on, and then each button will protrude outward the hole of each slider and stop each slider so as to prevent the headrest and footrest from being wholly pulled outward. On the bottom of each slider is provided with a catching member so as to stop against each stopping block of the base to firmly secure the headrest and footrest. After each button being pressed to shrink inward, each slider can be pushed inward along each skirt of the base to a secured position so as to collapse the infant bathtub for storage or carriage.
