Abstract

A child support apparatus includes a standing frame, and a juvenile support assembly supported on the standing frame, wherein the juvenile support assembly has a left and a right side and includes a resilient wire extending between the left and right sides, the resilient wire forming a bearing support for a child that is elastically deformable along an upward-downward direction of the juvenile support assembly.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A child support apparatus comprising:
a standing frame;
a juvenile support assembly supported on the standing frame, wherein the juvenile support assembly has a left and a right side and includes a resilient wire extending between the left and right sides, the resilient wire forming a bearing support for a child that is elastically deformable along an upward-downward direction of the juvenile support assembly; and
two side bar portions respectively disposed at the left and right sides of the juvenile support assembly, wherein the standing frame includes a first and a second leg frame connected with each other so that the first and second leg frames are rotatable relative to each other during folding and unfolding of the child support apparatus, each of the two side bar portions being connected with the standing frame, and the resilient wire having two opposite ends respectively attached to the two side bar portions, the resilient wire extending above the two side bar portions.

2. The child support apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the juvenile support assembly further includes a fabric that covers the resilient wire.

3. The child support apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the resilient wire includes a plurality of bent portions between the two opposite ends, the bent portions respectively forming a plurality of hinges allowing elastic deflection of the resilient wire along the upward-downward direction.

4. The child support apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the resilient wire is bent to form a wave shape that stretches back and forth between a front and a rear end of the juvenile support assembly.

5. The child support apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the resilient wire is bent into a shape including a plurality of first and second sections, the first sections extending generally parallel to one another along a lengthwise axis of the juvenile support assembly and the second sections extending generally parallel to one another along a transversal axis of the juvenile support assembly, the lengthwise axis extending from a front to a rear of the juvenile support assembly and the transversal axis extending from the left to the right side of the juvenile support assembly.

6. The child support apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the resilient wire is bent to form a spiral shape.

7. The child support apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the resilient wire is made of steel.

8. The child support apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the two side bar portions are respectively connected pivotally with at least one of the first and second leg frames.

9. The child support apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the two side bar portions are respectively connected pivotally with a transversal portion, the transversal portion being positionable to extend in front of the resilient wire.

10. The child support apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the child support apparatus further includes a handle frame that is pivotally coupled to the standing frame, and each of the two side bar portions is respectively linked to the handle frame and the standing frame.

11. The child support apparatus according to claim 10 , wherein the handle frame, the first and second leg frames are pivotally connected with one another about a common pivot axis.

12. The child support apparatus according to claim 10 , wherein the two side bar portions are respectively linked to the handle frame via two linking bars, each linking bar having two ends respectively connected pivotally with one side bar portion and the handle frame.

13. The child support apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising a guard member extending above the resilient wire, the guard member being configured to restrict a child sitting on the juvenile support assembly.

14. The child support apparatus according to claim 1 , being implemented as a child stroller apparatus.

15. A child support apparatus comprising:
a standing frame; and
a juvenile support assembly supported on the standing frame, wherein the juvenile support assembly has a left and a right side and includes a resilient wire extending between the left and right sides, the resilient wire forming a bearing support for a child that is elastically deformable along an upward-downward direction of the juvenile support assembly;
wherein the standing frame includes a first and a second leg frame connected with each other so that the first and second leg frames are rotatable relative to each other during folding and unfolding of the child support apparatus, and the resilient wire includes two opposite ends respectively attached fixedly to the first leg frame at the left and right sides of the juvenile support assembly, each of the two opposite ends of the resilient wire being respectively attached to a wire anchoring part that is fixedly connected with the first leg frame.

16. The child support apparatus according to claim 15 , wherein the juvenile support assembly further includes a fabric that covers the resilient wire.

17. The child support apparatus according to claim 15 , wherein the resilient wire includes a plurality of bent portions between the two opposite ends, the bent portions respectively forming a plurality of hinges allowing elastic deflection of the resilient wire along the upward-downward direction.

18. The child support apparatus according to claim 15 , wherein the resilient wire is bent to form a wave shape that stretches back and forth between a front and a rear end of the juvenile support assembly.

19. A child support apparatus comprising:
a standing frame; and
a juvenile support assembly supported on the standing frame, wherein the juvenile support assembly has a left and a right side and includes a resilient wire extending between the left and right sides, the resilient wire forming a bearing support for a child that is elastically deformable along an upward-downward direction of the juvenile support assembly;
wherein the standing frame further includes a first and a second leg frame, and the juvenile support assembly further includes a seat board that is respectively coupled to the first leg frame via a pivot connection and to the second leg frame via a linking bar portion, the resilient wire being disposed above the seat board.

20. The child support apparatus according to claim 19 , wherein the juvenile support assembly further includes a fabric that covers the resilient wire.

21. The child support apparatus according to claim 19 , wherein the resilient wire includes two opposite ends respectively anchored at the left and right sides of the juvenile support assembly, and a plurality of bent portions between the two opposite ends, the bent portions respectively forming a plurality of hinges allowing elastic deflection of the resilient wire along the upward-downward direction.

22. The child support apparatus according to claim 19 , wherein the resilient wire is bent to form a wave shape that stretches back and forth between a front and a rear end of the juvenile support assembly.

23. The child support apparatus according to claim 19 , wherein the resilient wire is bent into a shape including a plurality of first and second sections, the first sections extending generally parallel to one another along a lengthwise axis of the juvenile support assembly and the second sections extending generally parallel to one another along a transversal axis of the juvenile support assembly, the lengthwise a
