  • Publication number: 20190059611
    Abstract: A child support device includes a support frame having a base portion and an upright portion extending upwardly from the base portion. The upright portion is generally V-shaped and includes an upper junction. A handle is formed with the upper junction to facilitate transporting the child support device and wheels are attached to the base portion to facilitate movement. The arrangement of the support frame allows the support frame to fit through a 30-inch wide door opening. A support arm is pivotally suspended from the upper junction and a child-receiving receptacle is pivotally coupled to the at least one support arm. A capacitive touch control panel adjacent the upper junction controls operation of the child support device in response to user touches. Base and upright portions of the support frame, when viewed from the side, are collectively generally S-shaped.
