A juvenile chair has a seat portion, a back rest connected to the seat, two front legs and two back legs with each leg being pivotally connected to the seat portion. A pair of braces is included each of which respectively connects a front and back leg on each side of the chair. A cross brace removably connected to the pair of braces holds the legs in normal chair position, or on disconnection can be reconnected to the braces when the legs are pivoted upward so that they extend above the seat. A juvenile table having a table top, a joint and a support base is provided with the joint connecting the table top to the base. The joint has an outer sleeve with resilient flexible support structure disposed therein and spaced from the internal walls of the sleeve and connected to the table top so that the table top is free to move up and down, rock from side to side, or rotate. Carrier supports attached to the underside of the table, receive the cross brace of the juvenile chair when the legs are folded upwardly whereby a plurality of similar juvenile chairs can be pivotally attached to the table and the combination used as a merry-go-round.
A juvenile table combination comprising, in combination, a table top, a joint and a support base, said joint connecting said table top to said support base, said joint comprising, in combination, and outer sleeve, and resilient flexible means disposed within the outer sleeve and connected to said table top, said outer sleeve being sufficiently large so that said resilient flexible means is spaced from the internal walls of said outer sleeve and together with said table top is free to move up and down or rock from side to side, further including carrier attaching means connected to said table top for attaching one or more chairs to said table top, said carrier attaching means being disposed on the underside of said table top, and further including one or more juvenile chairs including means for engaging said chairs to said carrier attaching means, said juvenile chair including a seat portion, a back rest connected to said seat, two front legs and two back legs each leg being pivotally connected to the seat portion, a pair of braces, one brace connecting the left front and left back legs and one brace connecting the right front and right back legs and a cross brace removably connected to said pair of braces or to said front legs, so that said cross brace may be disconnected from said pair of braces or front legs, the four legs pivoted upwardly so that they extend above the seat portion, and said cross brace may engage the carrier attaching means disposed on the undersurface of said table top and thence attached again to said front legs or said pair of braces, whereby said chair is supported on or carried by said table top.
A juvenile table combination comprising, in combination, a table top, a joint and a support base, said joint connecting said table top to said support base, further including carrier attaching means connected to said table top for attaching one or more chairs to said table top, said carrier attaching means being disposed on the underside of said table top, and further including one or more juvenile chairs including means for engaging said chairs to said carrier attaching means, said chair including a seat portion, a back rest connected to said seat, two front legs and two back legs each leg being pivotally connected to the seat portion, a pair of braces, one brace connecting the left front and left back legs and one brace connecting the right front and right back legs and a cross brace removably connected to said pair of braces or to said front legs, so that said cross brace may be disconnected from said pair of braces or front legs, the four legs pivoted upwardly so that they extend above the seat portion, and said cross brace may engage the carrier attaching means disposed on the undersurface of said table top and thence attached again to said front legs or said pair of braces, whereby said chair is supported on or carried by said table top.
A juvenile chair adapted for attachment to carrier attaching means disposed on the undersurface of a table top, said chair comprising a seat portion, a back rest connected to said seat, two front legs and two back legs each leg being pivotally connected to the seat portion, a pair of braces, one brace connecting the left front and left back legs and one brace connecting the right front and right back legs and a cross brace removably connected to said pair of braces or to said front legs, so that said cross brace may be disconnected from said pair of braces or front legs, the four legs pivoted upwardly so that they extend above the seat portion, and said cross brace may engage carrier attaching means disposed on the undersurface of said table top and thence attached again to said front legs of said pair of braces, whereby said chair is supported on or carried by said table top.
