Application April 12, 1954, Serial No. 422,394
3 Claims. (Cl. 155'-24) This invention relates to baby walkers.
As is well understood, a baby walker is primarily a device for assisting a child just prior to its learning to walk alone. The walker adequately supports the child and he can ambulate about the room or outdoors. Of
course, a walker may be employed for supplementary purposes in the nature of a high chair, a feeding tray, or even a stroller.
The walker of the instant invention is notable for its simplicity of construction. It substantially eliminates requirement of bolts so as to provide an article which may be conveniently shipped in knocked down condition and may be easily assembled by either a retail outlet or a purchaser. Notwithstanding the simplicity of assembly, the device is of considerable sturdiness as will hereinafter appear.
Apart from the above mentioned special advantage, the walker has a variety of other favorable features. For example, the construction is such that a baby cannot succeed in tipping the walker over notwithstanding considerable activity on his part. This is accomplished in various ways, such as by the elevation of the rollers or casters relative to the bottom of the walker. Further, one or more supplementary rollers is provided which serves to inhibit tipping of the article in that a tipping force is translated into a rolling force. Other features contribute to this general objective as will be hereinafter made clear.
The invention will be further understood from the following description and drawings in which:
Figure 1 is a side, perspective view of the improved baby walker;
Figure 2 is an exploded view thereof;
Figure 3 is an enlarged cross-sectional view, partly broken away, taken along the line 3-3 of Figure 1;
Figure 4 is a cross-sectional view as taken along the line 44 of Figure 1; and
Figure 5 is a cross-sectional view as taken along the line 55 of Figure 4.
The frame of the walker comprises the rings or rails and 11 connected together and spaced by the legs 12. In the form shown, the legs are three in number and the frame is fabricated of metal tubing such as aluminum or the like. Ring 11) is supported by a top member or planar platform 13 which may include a tray 14, these elements comprising the upper section of the walker, while ring 11 comprises the lower section thereof.
Means are provided on the outer ends of the legs 12 for carrying a supporting caster in a somewhat elevated position relative to ring 11. Of course, this is not intended to implly that the caster roller 22 is higher than the ring 11 but, on the other hand, it is maintained in a higher vertical position relative to ring 11 than would be the case were the caster to be directly connected to such ring 11.
The outer end of tubular leg 12 is cut downwardly at an angle so as to form a concavo-convex portion having an elliptical mouth. A caster holder 23 having an inwardly directed arm 24 is connected to each of the legs 12. The assembly is effected by frictionally forcing the leg 24 into the elliptical mouth of the outer end of the leg 12 so as to retain it therein. Caster holder 23 is advantageously molded of a resilient plastic material such as polyethylene, nylon or the like. In order to insure such assembly, the tubular leg 12 may be crimped as at 25 so that the metal is caused to bite into the plastic arm 24.
In order to prevent inadvertent tipping of the walkei with consequent danger to the baby, the following additional expedients are employed:
A wheel 35 is rotatably disposed around one portion of ring 11. Referring to Figure 5, it will be noted that a bearing 36 which may be of bronze is provided around which the wheel 35 rotates. Cotter pins 37 maintain the bearing against shifting. In the form shown, a satisfactory embodiment was constructed wherein the wheel 11 was maintained about 1" above the floor. The diameter of wheel 35 was approximately 1 /2" so that ordinarily, wheel 35 is suspended above the level of the floor. Accordingly, wheel 35 will not ordinarily be functional during normal usage of the walker. However, should the baby, in a normal tendency to go forward, shift the center of gravity forwardly so that the article might tip over, wheel 35 will touch the ground and will thereupon roll forwardly so as to prevent any such tipping. Of course an additional number of wheels 35 may be disposed around ring 11 but it has been found that a single such wheel is satisfactory. In addition, the relative diameters of rings and 11 are useful in this respect in that should the baby, while walking, meet an obstacle and should he then continue forwardly so as to risk tipping over, the ring 10 would soon stop such any forward motion.
The invention will be briefly described as follows:
The user will frictionally insert the legs 12 as above indicated and he may also then connect the ring 10 as indicated. The caster holders will then be inserted into the outer ends of the legs so that the C-shaped concavities 28 are outermost. The ring 11, supporting the wheel 35, will be placed in the position illustrated and the legs 12 will be drawn back slightly against the normal tendency of the somewhat resilient nature thereof to diverge or extend outwardly and the G-shaped concavities 28 will be snapped over the ring 11 at the three spaced points thereof. The C-shaped concavity 28, being of resilient material will permit such snapping action and it will snugly retain the ring. It will be evident from the foregoing that no bolts are required to affect this assembly but that the normally outward position of the legs is taken advantage of to produce a simple although sturdy snap fit. In this connection it may be noted that the weight of the baby will even increase the sturdiness of the assembly since his Weight will tend to urge the legs into greater divergence.
Finally, means have been employed to minimize the scratching of furniture and the like by the walker. Such means including the absence of one of the legs at the front of the walker and further includes a plastic tubular coating or jacket 38 which embraces the lower ring 11. Although this expedient may be realized by coating or dipping the ring 11, it has been accomplished by simply expanding a thin tube of resilient plastic material by compressed air and then inserting one end of the open ring 11, the ring 11 thereafter being closed in any conventional manner such as at the point 39 below the bronze bearing 36. The plastic jacket has the effect of cushioning the ring 11 and minimizes scratching of furniture.
Should the baby tip sideways, the ring 11 will soon touch the ground so as to prevent him from tipping over in that direction. Any other danger of tipping is prevented by the means above set forth.
What is claimed is:
1. A baby walker comprising an upper ring, a substantially planar platform embraced by said ring, a lower ring, a plurality of legs connected between said platform and said lower ring and maintaining them vertically spaced from each other, said platform being formed with outwardly inclined recesses and the upper ends of said legs being retained by said recesses and diverging outwardly at a normal angle of divergence dictated by the angle of inclination of said recesses, concave projections disposed at the lower ends of said legs, said projections embracing said lower ring, said lower ring being of a diameter so as to force said leg lower ends inwardly from their normal angle of divergence so as to create a pressure against said lower ring and support it, the upper ends of said legs being frictionally retained in said recesses, said legs and rings being fabricated of resilient metal, said platform being formed with peripheral grooves, said upper ring being resiliently engaged by said grooves, a caster holder supported by the lower end of each leg, said concave projections being integral with said caster holders, said legs being tubular, an arm on each caster holder entering the hollow of the leg and being engaged by the inner walls of the leg, and a supporting roller wheel supported by each caster holder, each of said wheels being of a height so as to project vertically above the level of said lower ring.
