The combined table and chair assembly in accordance with the present invention is shown in perspective view in Fig. 1, which presents several improved features over similar assemblies as are known in the prior art.
A rectangular frame F is supported by four legs 20 which are mounted near the four corners thereof, and in turn supports the collapsible chair C for an infant within the outlines thereof. A removable table top 1, which the infant may use as a feeding table or play table, is slidably mounted in the frameand is provided with an opening 2 which accommodates the infant sitting on the chair C below the level of the table top. The frame F is preferably formed of four lateral walls of suitable hard wood, finished in a natural clear lacquer that is heat resistant, water and stain-proof, and consists of a front wall 10, rear wall 11, and side walls 12 and 13. A slot 15 is provided in the front wall and guide grooves 11a, 12a and 13a are provided on the inner faces of walls 11, 12 and 13, respectively. This arrangement permits the table top 1 to be inserted and removed from the table frame through slot 15, the lateral edges of which slide in grooves 121: and 13a, and the rear edge of which is seated in groove 11a when the table top is completely within the table frame. A pivoted latch 3 may be moved to the position shown in Fig. 1 when the table top 1 is in its seated position and is turned or more upwardly to permit the withdrawal of the table top through the slot 15.
The legs 20 supporting the frame of the table, are preferably of any suitable tubular metal such as aluminum, stainless steel or the like, of cylindrical configuration. The upper ends of these legs are fastened securely to the table frame by the provision of semi-cylindrical grooves 12b extending downwardly near the opposite ends of the lateral wall 12 of the frame, and semi-cylindrical grooves 13b near the opposite ends of the lateral wall 13. These grooves are slightly inclined to the vertical and diverge downwardly from the table top in order to direct the legs in corresponding directions to impart stability to the table top atall levels thereof. Bolts 22 extend through openings in the lateral walls and the legs 20 for fastening with cooperating wing nuts 23 so that a tightening of the wing nuts 23' will seat the legs 20 within the semi-cylindrical grooves provided therefor in the frame walls, and no amount of kicking or jarring by the infant can cause a shifting of position of the legs. To collapse the table, the wing nuts must be loosened a sufficient extent to permit a clearance of the tubular legs 29 from the grooves 12b and 13b, whereupon they may be folded adjacent to the walls 12 and 13 and substantially within the confines of the frame F.
The height of the table may be varied by the provision of telescopic extension within the legs 20. The lower ends of the legs are fitted with cylindrical rods 24' provided with diametral openings 25 at spaced points thereof which may be selectively lined up with openings 20 near the lower ends of the legs 20 through which are adapted to pass bolts 27 with cooperating wing nuts 28 in order to adjust the amount of extension of the rods 24 from the lower ends of the legs 20. The rods 24 are fitted at the lower ends thereof with caster wheels 26 for the purpose of permitting an easy rolling and manipulation of the table from place to place.
Fig. 8 shows the table with the tubular extensions 24 from the four legs extended an equal amount so that the table may be used as an extra serving table, or as a card playing table, or even as a feeding table for the infant if it is desired that the feeding table be raised to the level of a conventional table. The apertures 25 in the extensions 2 4 permit an adjustment of the table from a height of 23" to 30". 7
By extending the rods 24 from only a pair of the legs, the table top may be tilted, as shown in Fig. 9, to provide a convenient drawing board or blackboard for a child. In such cases a full rectangular insert, having a playing table surface on one side and a blackboard surface on the other side, of a size corresponding to the top inner dimansions of the frame of the table top, as shown in Fig. 1, may be superposed upon the feeding table 1 to extend the field of utility of the assembly. In such situations the back of the chair is collapsed below the table top or is removed completely from the frame as explained more fully below.
Fig. shows the reverse side of the table top from that shown in Fig. 1. Whereas the surface shown in Fig. 1 may be finished with a colored lacquer which may be easily washed or wiped off to maintain it clean for feeding purposes, the reverse side may have a different durable surface more suitable for the playing activities of the child.
In order to adjust the detachable seat within the table frame so that the child may be seated comfortably and safely at all times, provision is made for adjusting the mounting of the seat relative to the back wall 11 so that the child may be seated adjustably with respect to the front edge 2b of the opening 2 while the side edges of the opening 2a remain the same for all positions of adjustment of the seat.
As shown in Figs. 2, 3 and 11, the table frame is reenforced by a pair of bracing bars extending from the front wall 10 to the rear wall 11, which in nowise hinder the collapsing of the legs 26 adjacent to the walls 12 and 13. These bars 30 and 31 are spaced to accommodate the collapsible seat C therebetween. The seat may be constructed in any suitable manner and is shown as formed of Masonite or plywood. In the embodiment shown in Fig. 11, the seat consists of a wooden framework formed of side bars 32 and 33, removable front bar 34 which fits within the front ends of the side bars 32 and 33 by mortise and tenon joints and interfitting detachable pins, and a rear bar 35. The supporting member of the seat 38 is suspended from pairs of straps on each side of the seat. On one side or" the upper ends of the straps 36 are bolted to the bar 32 while the lower ends thereof are pivoted to straps 36', which in turn are pivoted to supporting brackets for the seat 38, as well as to links which support the legrest 40 and adjustable foot rest 41 for the child. Similarly, on theiotherside of the seat the upper ends of the straps37 are riveted to the side bar 33 and the lower ends thereof are pivotally connected to straps'37 which connect with brackets supporting the seat 38 and links connecting the leg and foot rests of the seat. The back 39 is hingedly connected to the bottom 38 to provide a comfortable back rest for the child in either sitting or reclined position which may be varied by the engagement of the free end of the strap 48 with a hook 47 provided at the median of the front bar 34, or with a hook 49 provided at the median of the inner face of the front wall 10 which serves to adjust the seat to a reclining position. The detailed structure of the seat forms no part of the present invention and may be varied to suit different conditions.
The seat is removable as a unit to adapt it as an auto mobile seat or the like, the important feature being that the seat is removable as a unit to adjust it to different positions within the table frame-work relative to the opening in the table top and particularly the edge 2b thereof.
For the purpose of mounting the seat adjustably, each of the side bars 30 and 31 is provided with a plurality of spaced bored openings 43a, 44a, and 45a which as a group are spaced from another group of openings in front thereof, 43b, 44b and 45b.
A pair of pins 42 extend from the bottom face of the side bars 32 and 33 and these are engageable selectively in one of the openings in the front group and one of the openings in the rear group on each side. Therefore the seat may be shifted forwardly or rearwardly depending upon the size of the child and the desired positioning relative to the edge 2b of the table top.
in Figs. 12 and 15 are shown two different embodiments for obtaining an adjustable mounting of the seat relative to the opening in the table top.
In the form shown in Figs. 12 and 13, the bracing bars 5d and 51 extending from the front to the rear walls of the frame may be of cylindrical configuration and groups of notches 63a, 64a and 654: may be cut adjacent the rear portion of these bars while identically spaced notches 63b, 64b and b are cut forwardly thereof. Supporting straps 56 on one side of the seat and supporting straps 5'7 on the other side of the seat have the upper ends thereof turned at 58 for seating in any selected pair of notches from the front and rear groups on each side. A U-shaped strap 58 may extend from the rear straps 56 to provide a support for the back 39 and the lower ends of the straps 56 and 57 may have pivoted thereto the straps 5 6 and 57' to provide a rigid or swinging support for the infants seat in a manner similar to that described in connection with the first embodiment.
In the embodiment shown in Figs. 14 and 15, the seat may be constructed identically to that shown in the embodiment illustrated in Figs. 12 and 13. In this case the reenforcing straps for the table frame may be bracing bars and 71 of rectangular or cylindrical configuration, in which a slot 69 is cut in the upper edge of each along the whole length thereof or only partially as shown in the drawing. The upper ends of the straps 56 are turned downwardly in projections 68 (Fig. 15), which may be moved anywhere along the slot 69 to obtain an infinite number of adjustments of the seat relative to the front edge of the opening in the table top rather than a limited number of adjustments as provided in the first and second embodiments, depending upon the number ofbored openings or grooves in the supporting bars, respectively.
if desired, the notches 63a, 64-11, 65a, 63b, 64b and 65b in the bars Stland S1 in the embodiment shown in Figs. 12 and 13 may be formed on a lathe so that they will extend around the complete periphery of the bars rather than merely on the tops thereof as shown in the drawings.
