Abstract
A children's high chair comprises a supporting frame (11,111) for a high chair (12,112) for receiving the child. The frame (11,111) comprises in turn a pair of legs (14,15) openable compasswise and with lower ends (19,119) for resting on the ground and stiffening crosspieces (20,120) arranged on both sides of the frame and movable between a non-operational position allowing closing of the frame and an operational position in which the crosspieces engage the legs to hold them steadily in open position. The crosspieces (20,120) can be moved to another more lowered operational position to rest on the ground to constitute high chair rocking members. Advantageously an automatic battery-powered mechanical rocking device can be provided.
Claims24
A children's high chair comprising a supporting frame for a high chair for receiving a child, said frame comprising:
- a first and second pair of pivoting legs with lower ends for resting on the ground, each of said pair of legs being movable between an open, use position and a closed, non-use position;
- a stiffening crosspiece arranged at each side of the supporting frame and movable between a non-operational position allowing collapsible folding of the supporting frame to the closed, non-use position and an operational position in which said crosspieces enable said pair of legs to be held steadily in the open position, said crosspieces each having a lower surface forming a ground support;
- and
- a positioning means connected to each crosspiece for positioning each pair of legs into said closed, non-use position, each crosspiece into said non-operational position and into said operational position, and into a lowered crosspiece position with said lower ends of said legs spaced from the ground to provide a rocker.
A children's high chair comprising a supporting frame for a high chair for receiving the child, said supporting frame comprising:
- two pairs of legs openable from a closed, non-use position to a open, use position, said teas having lower ends for resting on the ground;
- two stiffening crosspieces arranged on both sides of said supporting frame and movable between a non-operational position with said supporting frame in a closed, non-use position and an operational position in which said crosspieces which are equipped with a lower surface designed for ground support can be moved to a further lowered operational position to rest on the ground with said lower surface for lifting said lower ends of said legs from the ground to constitute high chair rocking members, said crosspieces each having one end hinged to a first leg of each of said two pairs of legs to pivot between a raised crosspiece position and a lowered crosspiece position, and each of said crosspieces having another end connected to a running member movable along a second leg of said two pairs of legs.
A children's high chair comprising a supporting frame for a high chair for receiving the child, said frame comprising;
- a first pair of articulated legs with lower ends for resting on the ground, said first pair of legs being movable between an open, use position and a closed, non-use position;
- a second pair of articulated legs with lower ends for resting on the ground, said second pair of legs being movable between an open, use position and a closed, non-use position;
- a first stiffening crosspiece arranged at a first side of the frame connecting said first pair of legs;
- a second stiffening crosspiece arranged at a second side of the frame connecting said second pair of legs;
- and
- a first crosspiece connection means for connecting one end of said first stiffening crosspiece to a leg of said first pair of legs and with another end of said first stiffening crosspiece hinged to another leg of said first pair of legs to position said first pair of legs into the closed, non-use position and said first crosspiece into a non-operational position, said leas into the open, use position to rest respective lower ends of said legs on the grounds and said first crosspiece into an operational rocker position wherein a lower surface of said first stiffening crosspiece rests on the ground to provide the operational rocker position;
- a second crosspiece connection means for connecting one end of said second stiffening crosspiece to a leg of said second pair of legs and with another end of said second stiffening crosspiece hinged to another leg of said second pair of legs to position said second pair of legs into the closed, non-use position and said second crosspiece into a closed, non-operational position, said leas into the open, use position to rest respective lower ends of said leas on the ground, and said second crosspiece into an operational rocker position wherein a lower surface of said second stiffening crosspiece rests on the ground to provide the operational rocker position.
