HIGH CHAIR.

Application filed July 26,
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ANTHONY M. Tnn'rrnn, a citizen of the United States, residing at Covington, in the county of Kenton and have invented certain new and useful Improvements in High Chairs, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to highchairs especially adapted for. use by babies.
An important object is to provide a highchair having simple means whereby the space betweenthe side and the space between the front and rear of the chair may be varied according to the size of the child.
' A further object is to provide novel means whereby the seat' and the step of the chair may be adjusted vertically. l Further, the invention aims to providea highchair which is neat'in appearance, of highly simplified construction and cheap to manufacture.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will be apparent during the course of the following description.
In the accompanying drawing forming a -part of this application and in which like numerals are employed to designate like parts throughout the same,
Figure 1 is a side elevation of the im proved chair.
- Fig. 2 is a plan view of the same. 7
Fig. 3 is a fragmentary perspective of a step embodied in the invention.
ig. 1 is a vertical sectional view taken on line H of Fig. 2.
Fig. 5 is a fragmentary perspective of one of the rear legs of the chair.
Fig. 6 is a fragmentary perspective of a seat embodied in the invention.
' Fig. 7 is a fragmentary perspective of one of the sides and the back of the chair.
Fig. 8 is a fragmentary rear elevation of the chair.
In the drawings wherein for the purpose of illustration is shown a preferred embodiment of the invention, the numeral 5 generally designates the chair which consistsof a pair-of rear legs 6 and a pair of front legs 7, the said front and rear legs being permanently connected by means of side arms 8. The side arms 8 may,-if desired, be secured to the upper ends of the front legs 7 and to the forward edges of. the rear legs Specification of Letters Patent. Patented Dec. 2'7, 1921.

6 at points spaced from the upper ends of the same.
The seat 10 may be adjusted vertically by means of engagin the forward portion of the same with pegs 11. carried by the rear sides of the legs 7. The rear portion of the seat may also be engaged with the rear legs 6 by means of rods 12 which are pivoted to the seat as indicated at 13. As illustrated in Fig. 6 the terminal portions of the rods 12 extend beneath-cutouts or recesses in the rear side of the seat and are adapted to be received Within inclined grooves 14 formed in the opposed side of the rear legs. When it is deslred to adjust the rear side of the seat vertically it is merely necessary to insert the terminal portions'of the rods 12 into the proper grooves 14 and the weight of the seat will cause the terminal portions of the rods 12 to engage the lower ends of the grooves 14 whereby the seat is securely held against further downward movement;
The back 16 may also be adjusted for wardly and rearwardly by means of pairs of links 17 pivoted to the back 16 as indicated at 18 and to across bar 19 as indicated at 20. The links of each pair of links are pivotally connected as indicated at 21 and permit the back 16 to be moved forwardly or rearwardly as may be desired. When the back 16 is moved to its rearmost position the same is engaged by holding catches 24 pivoted to the rear legs 6 as indicated at The holding catches 241 are also provided with transverse -slots which receive headed pins 26 carried by the rear side of the back 16. With the catches 24 thus engaged with the rear side 16, the rear side or back is securely held against movement. When the back 16 is positioned beneath the cross bar 19 the links of each pair are arranged in superposed relation and do not interfere with the use of the chair.
When advanced, the back 16 is adapted to be engaged by a pivoted arm 28 connected to the side 29 as indicated at 30. With reference to Figs. 2 and 7 it will be observed that the arm 28 is partially received in a transverse groove 32 in the upper side of the back 16 and that the arm 28 is provided with an angularly extended end portion 33 which engages the back and thereby prevents the acc1denta1 disconnection of the side 29 from the back. The side 29 may be held in the position illustrated in Fig. 2 by means of a link pivoted to one of the side arms 8 and to the intermediate portion.
of the side 29. a When the side 29 is moved inwardly it is simultaneously advanced so that the rear end of the same is in a position to flatly contact with the back 16 when the latter is advanced.
It is thus seen that the back and one of the sides may be adjusted to accommodate children of various sizes. When the child is seated in the chair it is prevented from standing up and possibly falling out ofthe chair since it is snugly held in a seated posi- 1 tion by contact with the sides and the back.
The step 38 is provided at its ends with adjusting loops 39 which engage inclined notches t0 formed in the rear sides of the legs 7. When it is desired to adjust the step 38 it is merely necessary to engage the loops 39 with the proper notches 40. The step 38 is provided with cutouts defining shoulders 42 which have engagement with the legs 7 to cooperate with the loops 39 in holding the step in position.

A highchair comprising front andrear legs, side arms connecting said. front and rear legs, a back arranged between said legs, side arms connecting said legs, a side member arranged adjacent one of said side arms, a single link pivoted to said side memher and the adjacent side arm-and adapted to advance said side member when the same is moved inwardly, a crossbar connecting said rear legs, a back, pairs of links pivot ed to said crossbar and to said back, the links of each pair being pivotally connected whereby the back may. be advanced, said back being provided with a transverse groove, and a pivoted arm adapted to be received within said groove and having connection with said side member, one of said. legsbeing provided with a pin adapted to be engaged by said pivoted arm.
