  • Patent number: 4181352
    Abstract: A children's furniture piece which can be used for different purposes by merely placing the furniture piece on different sides thereof so as to serve as desk, straight seat, inclined seat, and shelves. The furniture piece comprises side panels with straight and with inclined edges which latter have cutouts and protrusions that are so arranged that the cutout of one furniture piece receives the protrusions of the other furniture piece when stacking the furniture pieces one upon the other whereby automatically a slipping of the furniture piece in either one of two opposite directions will be prevented. The cutouts are correlated with the seat and desk position so that the elbow freedom of a child using the furniture piece as seat will be increased. The furniture piece is furthermore provided with lateral discs having the double purpose of increasing the stability of the furniture piece while also serving as armrest.
