NURSERY-CHAIR.
Specification of Letters Patent.
' Patented Nov. 5, 1918.
Application filed October 18, 1917. Serial N0. 197,264.
To all whom it may concern: 1
Be it known that I, FELIX ROBINSON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Vancouver, in the county of Clarke and State of Washington, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Nursery-.
Chairs, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to infant chairs and more particularly to the folding type adapted for nursery use. jects of the present invention is to provide a simple and practical chair of durable construction and neat appearance. A further object is to provide a chair having relatively few parts which may be inexpensively made. A further object is to provide a chair of the above general character which may be conveniently folded up when not in use.
Other parts will be in part obvious from the annexed drawing and in part indicated in connection therewith by the following analysis of this invention.
This invention accordingly consists in the features of construction, combination of parts and in the unique relations of the members and in the relative proportioning and disposition thereof, all as more completely outlined herein.
To enable others skilled in the art so fully to comprehend the underlying features thereof that they may embody the same by the numerous modifications in structure and relation contemplated by this invention, a drawing depicting a preferred form has been annexed as a part of this disclosure, and in such drawing like characters of reference denote corresponding arts throughout all the views, in which Figure 1 is a front elevation partly in section showing the chair in operative position;
Fig. 2 is a vertical section taken from front to back of the chair;
Fig. 3 is a sectional plan view taken just above the seat, Fig 2;
Fig. 4: is an elevational view showing the chair in folded position.
Referring now to the drawing in detail and more particularly to Fig. 1, the back of the chair includes two legs 6, a transverse stay member 7 and a back proper 8. Secured to the back by means of hinges 10 are sides 11, including lower forward legs 12 and upper side arms 13. It will be noted One of the obthat the sides are provided with a forwardly projecting shoulder 1% adapted to support a tollet seat 15 which is hinged to a transverse member 16 connecting the rear legs. Thls seat is provided with laterally extending hooks 17, Fig. 3, at the forward side edges adapted to embrace or engage three sides of the arms 13 and rest upon the projections 14. A main seat 18 shown in swung down position and resting against stops 19 on the forward legs in Fig. 2 is secured to the auxiliary seat 15 by means of hinges 20 whereby this seat member may be swung upwardly and rearwardly as indicated by the dotted line 21 to occupy a position above the toilet seat when the latter is not in use. Also secured to the back member by means of pivots 22 are arms 23 having offset parts or blocks 2% adapted to rest and be supported by the arms 13. These side arms carry a tray 25 which may occupy the position shown in Fig. 2 or be swung upwardly and rearwardly over the back and hang down adjacent the rear legs 6 when the same is not in use, or in folded position as shown in Fig. at.
It is believed from the above that the construction and operation of this device is perfectly clear, as well as its operation and method of use. The entire structure may be easily and quickly folded intothe compact position shown in Fig. 4 by swinging the tray 24: upwardly and downwardly against the rear legs and then folding the main seat and auxiliary seat 15 upwardly about the pivots 16 into engagement with the back 8.
The sides 11 then fold inwardly about the hinges 10 to hold the parts in place. By means of the peculiar constructlon of the seats the side arms are held in properly spaced relation and prevented from havmg either inward or outward movement.
It is to be particularly noted that the upper edges of the arms are straight and in a horizontal plane, and that the tray arms 24 are supported upon the upper edges of the chair arms 13, so as to be disposed in a horizontal and more room for the childs elbows, while at the same time the tray is firmly and solidly supported by the portions 2%.
It will likewise be seen'from Fig. 2, that the main seat 18 is provided at its pointed end with a flange 26, which extends at right angles to the plane of the seat- 18, this flange having trunnions at its ends which are engaged by the hinge members 20. This flange 26, when the seat 18 is extended over the commode seat 15, covers the edges of the two seats, so as to conceal the fact that there are two seats, and increase the likeness of the chair to an ordinary chair.
It will be noticed also that the hingeanembers 20 are disposed immediately upon the shoulders 1%. so that there is very little strain upon the strips which constitute the hinges 20, the downward pull on the hinges being resisted by the contact of the eye of the hinge with the forward edge of the corresponding leg 11.
The stop 19 supports the seat 18, when it is in its depending position, in an outwardly and downwardly inclined plane, and prevents the seat 18, under the circumstances of its use. from being kicked inward by the child and striking, and possibly overturning the vessel placed beneath the chair.
It is thus seen that the present invention provides a simple and practical chair particularly adapted for nursery use of inexpensive but durable construction and neat appearance. In short, the invention is believed to accomplish, among others, all the advantages and objects herein set forth.
I realize that considerable variation is possible in the details of construction and arrangement of parts without departing from the spirit of my invention, and I therefore do not intend to limit myself to the specific form shown and described.
Having thus described my invention what I claim as new and desire to secure by Let ters Patent is:
1. A folding chair including a back, arms hinged to the back for movement in a plane at right angles to the back, said arms having straight upper edges for a part of their length, a tray, and tray-supporting arms, operatively pivoted to the back for movement in vertical planes exterior the chair arms, said tray arms having inwardly offset portions adjacent the forward ends, resting upon the upper faces of the arms when the tray is in operative position, the upper faces of the tray supporting arms forming rests for the arms of a child.
2. A. chair including a commode seat, and a main seat adapted to be disposed to cover the commode seat or hang vertically therefrom, said main seat having a flange at one end, having a width equal to the thickness of the commode seat, the flange having lateral trunnions at its extremity, and hinge members attached to the commode seat, and with which the trunnions swingingly engage.
A chair including a back, side members each having a horizontal shoulder at its forward edge, and each hinged to the back for folding movement into or out of a position against the back, a commode seat pivoted to the back, and having laterally disposed hookshaped portions embracing the forward edges of the side members when said hook-shaped portions rest upon said shoulders, hinge strips attached to the under faces of the hookshaped portions, projectingforward beyond the seat, and then bent to form an eye, and a main seat having a flange at one end formed with trunnions engaging in the eyes, the eyes bracing against the edges of the side members where the commode seat is in a horizontal position.
In testimony whereof I atliX my signature in presence of witnesses.
FELIX ROBINSON.
