The invention includes a diaper changing station comprising a station housing having an internal collapsible frame and an outer cover. The internal collapsible frame includes: a front frame having a horizontal base, opposing sides extending generally vertical from the base and an arched top interconnecting the opposing sides; a rear frame having a horizontal base, opposing sides extending generally vertical from the base and an arched top interconnecting the opposing sides; opposing collapsible side frames having a plurality of hingedly connected framing rods interconnecting the front and rear frame. The cover includes a flexible fabric enclosing the frame and forms a base, opposing side walls, a rear wall, an open front and a domed hood extending between the arched tops of the front frame and the rear frame and along the entire length of the base; whereby the housing is moveable between an erected position and a collapsed position.

What is claimed is: 1. A diaper changing station comprising: a station housing having an internal collapsible frame and an outer cover; said internal collapsible frame including; a front frame having a plurality of framing rods forming a horizontal base, opposing sides extending generally vertical from said base and an arched top interconnecting said opposing sides; a rear frame having a plurality of framing rods forming a horizontal base, opposing sides extending generally vertical from said base and an arched top; a first collapsible side frame and a second collapsible side frame opposing said first collapsible side frame, each of said collapsible side frames having a plurality of hingedly connected framing rods interconnecting said front frame and said rear frame, wherein each of said framing rods includes a first hinge disposed generally at a first distal end and on a first side of said framing rods and a second hinge disposed generally at a second end opposite said first distal end on a second side opposite said first side so that each of said first and second distal ends hingedly cooperate with a distal end of adjacent framing rods and said collapsible side frames collapses along a single horizontal axis; said cover including a flexible fabric enclosing said frame and forming a base, opposing side walls, a rear wall, an open front and a domed hood extending between said arched tops of said front frame and said rear frame and along the entire length of said base; whereby said housing is moveable between an erected position for use as a diaper changing station for an infant and said collapsed position for allowing easy transport and storage. 2. The station of claim 1, wherein said flexible fabric includes UV ray protecting fabric. 3. The station of claim 1, wherein said flexible fabric includes liquid and fire resistant fabric. 4. The station of claim 1, wherein each of said opposing, collapsible side frames includes an upper rail and a lower rail, wherein each of said upper rail and said lower rail includes at least 2 of said hingedly connected framing rods that are hingedly connected to said front frame end said rear frame. 5. The station of claim 1, wherein said first and second hinge comprise a safety clip pivotally interconnecting said framing rods and having a locked condition for maintaining said erected position of said housing by preventing said framing rods from pivoting in relation to said safety clip and an unlocked condition for allowing movement of said framing rods and thus allowing movement of said housing between said erected position and said collapsed position. 6. The station of claim 1, including a threshold base extension for extending said base outwardly from said open front. 7. The station of claim 1, including a vent disposed on one of said opposing side walls and said rear wall. 8. The station of claim 7, including an adjustably secured vent cover for partially or completely obstructing said vent. 9. The station of claim 8, wherein said cover is disposed on an exterior surface of one of said opposing side walls and said rear wall. 10. The station of claim 1, including a fastener disposed on an exterior surface of said housing for securing said front frame to said rear frame when said housing is in said collapsed position. 11. The station of claim 1, including a pocket disposed on one of said opposing side walls and said rear wall for allowing objects to be stored in said station housing. 12. A diaper changing station comprising: an internal collapsible frame collapsible along a single axis; an outer flexible cover enclosing said frame and forming a base, opposing side walls, a rear wall, an open front and a top extending along a length of said base; a collapsible housing formed by said inner collapsible frame and said outer cover, said collapsible housing having an erected position for accommodating an infant in the housing as a diaper changing station and a collapsed position for portability and storage of articles in the housing when in said collapsed position; said internal collapsible frame including a front frame and a rear frame, each having a horizontal base, opposing sides extending generally vertical from said base and an arched top interconnecting said opposing sides, said internal collapsible frame further including a first collapsible side frame and a second collapsible side frame opposing said first collapsible side frame, each of said collapsible side frames having a plurality of hingedly connected framing rods interconnecting said front frame and said rear frame, wherein a first framing rod is hingedly connected to one of said front frame and said rear frame and is capable of pivoting in a clockwise direction and a second framing rod is hingedly connected to said first framing rod and is capable of pivoting in a counterclockwise direction so that said framing rods are placed in a generally perpendicular position relative to said single axis when said collapsible housing is placed in said collapsed position. 13. The station of claim 12 including a closure for closing said open front when said housing is in said erected position and for retaining articles when said housing is in said collapsed position. 14. The station of claim 12 wherein said framing rods are placed in a generally perpendicular position relative to said single axis with a distal end of each of said framing rods of said first collapsible side frame being laterally spaced within a single plane from an opposing distal end of said framing rods in said second collapsible side frame when said first and second collapsible side frames are placed in a collapsed position. 15. The station of claim 12, wherein each of said opposing collapsible side frames includes an upper rail and a lower rail, wherein each of said upper rail and said lower rail includes at least four of said hingedly connected framing rods that are hingedly connected to said front frame and said rear frame. 16. The station of claim 12, wherein said internal, collapsible frame includes a safety clip interconnecting said framing rods and having a locked condition for maintaining said erected position of said collapsible housing and an unlocked condition for allowing movement of said collapsible housing between said erected position and said collapsed position. 17. The station of claim 12, including a fastener disposed on an exterior surface of said housing for securing said front frame to said rear frame when said diaper changing station is in said collapsed position. 18. The station of claim 12, including a threshold base extension for extending said base outwardly from said open front. 19. The station of claim 18, wherein said threshold base extension has an open position for creating a barrier to said open front and a closed position for creating a barrier to said open front.
