CHILD'S TRAINING CHAIR Filed April 11, 1946 7 2'4; why/ll,
INVENTOR 2/ %Q ZQZQ AT ORNEY Patented Apr. 3, 1951 UNITED srArss 2 Claims.
- 1 j This invention relates to a toilet chair for children, and more especially to an improved training chair for promoting proper physiological training of the child in regularity of toilet habits.
One of the prime objects of the invention is to design an adjustable toilet chair that can be readily adjusted to suit the childs size and sit ting posture. 7
Another object is to design a junior toilet chair in which the distance fro-m the back of the chair to the front edge can be readily adjusted to enable the child to assume a physiological position instead of sitting with its legs held horizontally in an unnatural, strained, and unrelaxed position, which hinders rather than promotes ease of training in elimination.
A further object is to provide a toilet chair that can be readily manufactured and assembled, that is easy to adjust to suit the individual child, and
that promotes correct sittin and proper elimination.
To the accomplishment of the foregoing and ways in which the principle of the invention may H be used.
In the drawing:
Fig. 1 is a part-sectional, side-elevational view of my improved training chair, one of the side sections being broken away, the broken lines showing the seat in various positions of adjustment.
Fig. 2 is a top plan View thereof.
Fig. 3 is a front-elevational view.
Fig. 4 is an enlarged, detail view illustrating the removable pin for securing the seat in position.
Fig. 5 is an enlarged, fragmentary, front-elevational view showing a clamping means for securing the chair to a toilet seat, the broken lines showing the clamp in locked position.
Referring now more particularly to the drawing in which I have shown the preferred embodiment of my invention, the chair comprises a pair of spaced-apart side panels or sections 8 and 9 respectively which can be formed of wood, metal, or any other desired material. Arm rests iii and I! are provided on the respective side sections, and a back rest l2 rigidly connects and spaces said side sections from each other, this back rest extending above the side sections 8 and 9 and being slightly inclined as usual.
The seat 53 is formed as shown in Figs. 1 and 2 of the drawing, the rear end section I i being curved in a horizontal plane, and spaced openings l5 and Ea are provided in the rearward and forward portions of the side edges of the seat,
related ends, said invention then consists of the 7 a single opening It being provided in each side panel section toward the lower rear thereof, and when the openings it are brought into alignment with the selected openings I5 in the edge of the seat, the pins '4'! are inserted therein and serve to secure the seat in adjusted position. A sanitary shield (not shown) is provided on the front edge of the seat as usual.
The chair is designed to permit the seat to be tilted to accommodate the individual child, a plurality of vertically spaced openings i9 being provided adjacent the front edge of each side section, and when the front end of the seat is swung to adjusted position to brin the selected openings 19 into register with one of the openings I50; in the edge of the seat, the pins l'ia are then inserted to secure the seat in adjusted, tilted position. This tilting can be easily and quickly ac complished to suit the individual child and the chair is of neat and pleasing appearance.
The seat opening 20 is of conventional design,
and to adjust the seat horizontally with relation to the back rest, the pins H and Ila are first removed and the seat shifted horizontally to adjust the distance from the back of the chair to the front edge of the seat, the openings in the side sections and the edges of the seat are then brought into register, after which the pins I l and [la are inserted to hold the seat in adjusted relation.
Small rubber pads 2| are provided on the lower edge of the side sections to prevent marring of the toilet seat (not shown), and a clamping means C' is provided on the sides of the side panels for clamping the chair in position, and I do not deem it necessary to describe these clamps as they form no part of the present invention.
From the foregoing description, it will be clearly obvious that I have perfected a very simple, practical, and convenient lightweight childs training chair, which can be easily manufactured and assembled, handledand attached, with but one hand, enabling the person to carry the child with the other.
What I claim is:
1 A childs training chair adapted to be attached to a conventional toilet seat, comprising spaced-apart, stationary side panels, a backrest rigidly connecting said side panels and securing them in spaced-apart relation, a seat pivotally mounted on said panels and adjustable longitudinally therein, said seat being formed with a plurality of spaced-apart apertures in the side edges thereof adjacent the rear edge of the seat, pivot pins in the side panels for engagement with certain selected apertures in the seat, a plurality of spaced-apart apertures in the side edges of the seat adjacent the front edge thereof, and vertically spaced passages in said side panels for register with an aperture in the seat when the seat is swung to predetermined position, and support pins removably mounted in said passages and apertures for holding the seat in adjusted position.
2. A childs training chair adapted to be detachably mounted on a conventional toilet seat and comprisin spaced-apart side panels, arm rests thereon, inwardly inclined backrest connecting the side panels, a seat releasably and pivotally mounted between the side panels, longitudinally spaced apertures in the rearward portion of the side edges of the seat to permit 1ongitudinal adjustment thereof, longitudinally spaced apertures in the forward portion of the side edges of said seat and vertically spaced passages in said side panels adjacent the front edges thereof, said seat being tiltable to bring certain apertures in the forward edges of the seat into register with certain predetermined passages in the side panels, and support pins for securing the seat in its adjusted position.
