Then, by turning theseat 2, thepin 85 will move along the slidingchute 87 and thus continue turning back. At the same time, thefront legs 3 andrear legs 4 move together through therotation shaft 32 which results in decrease of the angle between the two legs. The relative movement of thesecond end 22 of theseat 2 and thefront legs 3 through therotation shaft 31 also results in decrease of the angle between theseat 2 and thefront legs 3. - Both sides of the
seat 2 are connected to thefront legs 3 byrotation shaft 31. Therear legs 4 are connected to thehookswitch 8. The minimum distance between the actuating ends of theguide rods 82 is set as twice of the maximum operating range of theguide rod 82. This maximum operating range should correspond to the distance that can be manipulated by one hand of an adult so as to ease the operation by a hand. In addition, when a user pushes theguide rod 82, theseat 2 is released (unlocked) to a freedom status. Then, after user's fingers are released from theguide rod 82, theinserts 83 will spring back with theguide rod 82 due to the elastic force applied by thespring 84 which is compressed between theinsert 83 and thehousing 81. Thereby, theguide rod 82 is reset. - As mentioned above, the
seat 2 is in a freedom status after theguide rod 82 is pushed. At this point, thefirst end 21 of theseat 2 turns down and drives thepin 85 moving along the slidingchute 87 until thepin 85 is stuck in the lowest end of the slidingchute 87. Therefore, the baby dining chair is completely in a folded status. - Through co-working of the two
rotation shaft guide rod 82 by tilting the chair slightly onwards. Moreover, the rotation shafts can make therear legs 4 folded toward thefront legs 3 when in folding, which makes the dining chair just standing when it is completely folded. - As a preferred embodiment of the invention, an
auxiliary rod 7 is connected between the upper ends of the tworear legs 4. The two ends of theauxiliary rod 7 are fixedly connected to therear legs 4. When the baby dining chair is in use, theauxiliary rod 7 can form a face support or line support structure together with thehookswitch 8. When the baby dining chair is unfolded, theauxiliary rod 7 is in abutment to thehousing 81. Furthermore, the support structure between thehookswitch 8 andauxiliary rod 7 can also be designed as a concave shape so that it can form a face support acting like a bearing shaft. Such structure can prevent thehookswitch 8 from being damaged due to too much stress. Meanwhile, theauxiliary rod 7 can also play a role of stabilizing the chair seat in order to prevent a baby from falling to the ground when he or she is sitting on the front part of theseat 2. - As shown in
Fig. 5 ,Fig. 6 ,Fig. 7 andFig. 8 , despite working as a part of the chute-type hookswitch, theseat 2 has asecond end 22 under which apedal member 6 is provided. Furthermore, thesecond end 22 of theseat 2 is also provided on its upper side with abracket 52 for connecting with thedinner plate 5. - The
pedal member 6 comprises apedal frame 61 and apedal hookswitch 62. Thepedal frame 61 is connected to thesecond end 22 of theseat 2 by thepedal hookswitch 62. When an insert of thepedal hookswitch 62 is retracted, thepedal frame 61 rotates about a joint connected to thesecond end 22 of theseat 2 towards theseat 2 and then contacts with the bottom side of theseat 2. Thepedal frame 61 is a wide U-shaped frame structure and includes asecond locking hole 611 as well as a slope slide-guidingmember 612. As a preferred embodiment, at the bottom side of the seat there mounted a hook wedge in order to facilitate secure of thepedal frame 61 to the bottom of theseat 2. The hook wedge is arranged at the boundary of the contact surface between the bottom of theseat 2 and thepedal frame 61, which is used to secure thepedal frame 61 to the bottom ofseat 2. The pedal hookswitch 62 mainly comprises the following 3 assemblies. The first assembly is comprised of arotation shaft slot 621 and aslot cover 622. This assembly is connected to thepedal frame 61 through a rotation shaft while the pedal frame is also connected to alock slot 623 through the above rotation shaft. The second assembly is comprised of thelock slot 623, alock slot cover 624 and a second clutch 625 mounted in thelock slot 623. This second assembly is used to lock thepedal frame 61 at a certain angle. The third assembly comprises ahook wedge structure 626 for securing thepedal frame 61 when thepedal frame 61 is folded onto the bottom of theseat 2. Thesecond clutch 625 in thelock slot 623 has one end designed as acylindrical protrusion 629 to be stuck in thesecond locking hole 611 of thepedal frame 61. Furthermore, inside thesecond clutch 625 there are also provided with asecond button 627 and asecond spring 628. Thelock slot cover 624 is provided with an opening so that a part of thesecond button 627 can extend outside thelock slot cover 624 through the opening to facilitate the user to operate thesecond button 627. Therotation shaft slot 621 and thelock slot 623 are mounted at both sides of the U-shaped ends of thepedal frame 61. When in use, the user can firstly release thepedal frame 61 from thehook wedge structure 626. Then, during the rotation for unfolding thepedal frame 61, the slope slide-guidingmember 612 ofpedal frame 61 comes into contact with thecylindrical protrusion 629 of thesecond clutch 625 and guide theprotrusion 629 smoothly stuck into thesecond locking hole 611 so as to secure thepedal frame 61. After thepedal frame 61 is fixed, if a user pushes thesecond buttons 627 from outer sides towards the inner sides, thesecond clutches 625 will accordingly be driven by thesecond buttons 627 and thus translate to the inner sides. This movement will release thecylindrical protrusion 629 of the second clutch 625 from thesecond locking hole 611, which brings thepedal frame 61 into a freedom status. - The
second spring 628 acts similar to theaforementioned spring 84. After a user pushes thesecond button 627 to release the second clutch 625 from thesecond locking hole 611, if the user's fingers are released from thesecond button 627, elastic force of thesecond spring 627 compressed between the inner side of thelock slot 623 and thesecond button 627 will cause thesecond clutch 625 bring back thesecond buttons 627 to its original position. - Function of the
pedal frame 61 is that it can make a baby place his or her feet on thepedal frame 61 comfortably without a feeling of hanging of the feet. Besides, such a retractable design makes the baby dining chair more flexible and convenient when it is folded or unfolded. - As shown in
Fig. 9 , afoldable dinner plate 5 can be provided above theseat 2. Thisdinner plate 5 has twoelongate poles 51 which pass through two openings set in thebackrest 1 and are buckled at the back sides of thebackrest 1 by means of hook wedge. With such arrangement, thedinner plate 5 is fixed to thebackrest 1. Furthermore, thedinner plate 5 is also provided with abracket 52 connected at the bottom side of thedinner plate 5 through a rotation shaft. Thebracket 52 is connected between thedinner plate 5 and theseat 2. As described above, on thesecond end 22 ofseat 2 is provided with an interface for connecting to the other end of thebracket 52. Thedinner plate 5 can be more stable in both horizontal and vertical directions with connection to thebracket 52. - As shown in
Fig. 10 , the baby dining chair further compriseslateral plates 53 that are foldably connected to thedinner plate 5. Thelateral plates 53 are located at two sides of the chair and are rotatable about ashaft 51a set in theelongate poles 51. When thelateral plates 53 rotate down to a position vertical to theelongate poles 51, tails of theplates 53 will return into slots set in theelongate poles 51 andinverted wedge 54 will tighten thelateral plate 53 by virtue of elasticity of plastic. - By pressing the
inverted wedge 54 inward, thelateral plate 53 can be lifted up. After the tails of thelateral plate 53 are disengaged from the slots, tails of thelateral plates 53 can be stuck in the slots by pressing inward down thelateral plates 53. Then, thedinner plate 5 is folded into a plane that can be hung on ahook 71 set on theauxiliary rod 7. As shown inFig. 2 , theauxiliary rod 7 may be provided with ahook 71. As shown inFig. 11 , a hanginghole 91 may also be designed on the corresponding position of the bottom of thedinner plate 5 at the place where it is overlapped with theauxiliary rod 7 when it is folded. The hanginghole 91 can engage with thehook 71 of theauxiliary rod 7. Consequently, thedinner plate 5 can be folded when not in use, which makes it easy to carry. - It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the sole embodiments of as described above. On the contrary, it will encompass all the alternative embodiments thereof.
- For example, in the above description, the
first end 21 of theseat 2 is lockably connected to therear legs 4 by means of ahookswitch 8. After thefirst end 21 of theseat 2 is unlocked from therear legs 4 through thehookswitch 8, theseat 2 is able to turn back down and slide along the extending direction of therear legs 4 so as to enable the baby dining chair to be folded. However, it would be also expected that theseat 2 can similarly be lockably connected to the front legs through a hookswitch. In this case, thefirst end 21 of theseat 2 can be rotatably connected to therear legs 4 through a rotation shaft while the middle or front part of theseat 2 is connected to the front legs through thehookswitch 8. Meanwhile, thehookswitch 8 can be provided beneath the middle of front part of the seat with the corresponding first locking hole and sliding chute being arranged on thefront legs 3.
