  • Publication number: 20110057488
    Abstract: A bouncing baby chair comprising a seat assembly supported by a frame and a resilient biasing device provides a bouncing motion which parents or other caretakers may use to soothe a colicky baby. The baby chair provides a bouncing motion which is substantially vertical that is soothing without creating or exacerbating a baby's digestion problems. The baby chair also supports a parent in a seated position on a seat assembly which reduces fatigue. In one embodiment, the seat assembly is supported by one or more resilient biasing devices. The seat assembly may bounce by moving downward distorting the resilient biasing device and upward assisted by the biasing device returning to a substantially undistorted state. The soothing bouncing motion may be produced by repeating these motions on the bouncing baby chair.
