Portable tray with attachment clip

Abstract

A portable tray assembly for infant and toddler dining comprises a flexible mat portion with a spring-loaded clip attachment mechanism. The mat portion, formed from food-grade thermoplastic rubber, features a top surface for food placement and a bottom surface that contacts the table. The clip portion includes a spring element covered with thermoplastic rubber and a padded section positioned at a radius section to cushion contact between children and table edges. Unlike traditional suction-based designs, the spring-loaded clip exerts constant pressure to securely grip table edges of varying thicknesses while maintaining stability across diverse surfaces. The tray includes optional features such as a raised perimeter lip for spill containment, attachment points for accessory tethers, and a flexible construction that allows the mat to roll into the clip for compact storage and transport.
