  • Patent number: 5590927
    Abstract: A baby highchair designed to be stored in a shallow storage compartment, which may be a conventional drawer, and when slid out therefrom to unfold and to lock into a rigid structure adapted to support a child therein. The unit engages with conventional full drawer extension slides mounted in the compartment permitting the unit to be slid in or out when in its folded configuration. The compartment may be further modified to provide a hinged closure for the front thereof which swings upwardly to permit entry into or exit from the compartment. The unit is designed to both save space and expense and is preferably installed in a kitchen drawer. The compartment may also be formed by a bracket member adapted to be bolted or otherwise fastened to the underside of a kitchen table, shelf or the like. Except for steel hinges, the unit is preferably formed from easily-cleaned, smooth plastic materials.
