Patent ID: 8162333

Claim:
An apparatus comprising: a resilient tubular frame body comprising a telescoping arrangement of tubular elements; a base attached thereto a lower portion thereof said tubular frame body; a tray assembly attached thereto an upper portion thereof said tubular frame body; an interchangeable seat assembly attachable thereto an upper portion thereof said tubular frame body; wherein said tubular frame body further comprises a pair of mounting bars mounting said lower portion of said tubular frame body to said base, arranged parallel to each other, and positioned and affixed along opposing inside surfaces of said base and affixed thereto; an adjustable tubular support structure forming a vertically expanding scissor-like structure affixed thereto said pair of mounting bars, further comprising: a first pair of lower tubes comprising a first lower end mounted to and extending upwardly from a first mounting bar in an offset and converging configuration to form a crossing junction, and a first upper end; a first pair of lateral tube clamps attaching said first pair of lower tubes to said first mounting bar with a first pair of pivot pins, each slidingly engaged with said first mounting bar; a second pair of lower tubes comprising a second lower end mounted to and extending upwardly from a second mounting bar in an offset and converging configuration to form a crossing junction, and a second upper end; a second pair of lateral tube clamps attaching said second pair of lower tubes to said second mounting bar with a second pair of pivot pins, each slidingly engaged with said second mounting bar; a first tube joint locking mechanism providing a first vertical and angular positioning and securing means to said first pair of lower tubes; a second tube joint locking mechanism providing a second vertical and angular positioning and securing means to said second pair of lower tubes; a first pair of upper tubes, comprising a third lower end extending upwardly to a third upper end pivotally attached to said tray assembly; a first pair of tube locking collars for securing said third lower end of said first pair of upper tubes to said first upper end of said first pair of lower tubes; a second pair of upper tubes, comprising a fourth lower end extending upwardly to a fourth upper end pivotally attached to said tray assembly; and, a second pair of tube locking collars for securing said fourth lower end of said second pair of upper tubes to said second upper end of said first pair of lower tubes; wherein said first pair of lateral tube clamps and said second pair of lateral tube clamps each provide an offset and hinging means to said first pair of lower tubes and said second pair of lower tubes, respectively; wherein said tubular support structure provides a vertically adjusting and securing means for said tray assembly between a lower position and an upper position; and, wherein said apparatus is selectably transformable therefrom a child walker configuration thereto a high chair configuration.
