The at least one sliding latch includes a first engaging portion and at least one second engaging portion. The first engaging portion is for engaging with the at least one support portion. The at least one second engaging portion is for engaging with the at least one lower tube inserted within the at least one assembling portion at a locking position.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A child tray assembly adapted for a child seat, the child tray assembly comprising:
at least one support portion slidably disposed on the child seat; and
a tray detachably disposed on the at least one support portion, the tray comprising a tray body and at least one sliding latch slidably disposed on the tray body, at least one assembling portion being formed on the tray body for insertion of at least one lower tube, the at least one sliding latch comprising:
a first engaging portion for engaging with the at least one support portion; and
at least one second engaging portion for engaging with the at least one lower tube inserted within the at least one assembling portion at a locking position.

2. The child tray assembly of claim 1 , wherein at least one engaging recess is formed on a side of the at least one support portion, and the at least one sliding latch is located at a position corresponding to the at least one engaging recess for engaging with or disengaging from the at least one engaging recess.

3. The child tray assembly of claim 1 , wherein the at least one sliding latch further comprises an operating portion connected to the first engaging portion and the at least one second engaging portion.

4. The child tray assembly of claim 3 , wherein the operating portion is fixedly connected to the at least one second engaging portion, and a relief slit is formed on a connection between the operating portion and at least one second engaging portion.

5. The child tray assembly of claim 3 , wherein the operating portion is at least partially exposed out of the tray body, the first engaging portion is exposed out of the tray body, and the at least one second engaging portion is received inside the tray body.

6. The child tray assembly of claim 3 , wherein a sliding slot is formed on the operating portion, a middle portion of the at least one second engaging portion is pivotally installed on the tray body and located at a position outside the sliding slot, a sliding pin protrudes from an end of the at least one second engaging portion through the sliding slot, another end of the at least one second engaging portion is adapted for engaging with the at least one lower tube, and the operating portion drives the another end of at least one second engaging portion to pivotally disengage from the at least one lower tube by cooperation of the sliding pin and the sliding slot.

7. The child tray assembly of claim 6 , wherein the sliding pin is driven by the at least one lower tube to slide relative to the sliding slot during a process that the at least one lower tube is inserted into the at least one assembling portion to reach the locking position.

8. The child tray assembly of claim 1 , wherein a slot is formed on the at least one assembling portion and located at a position corresponding to the at least one second engaging portion for allowing the at least one second engaging portion to pass therethrough to engage with the at least one lower tube.

9. The child tray assembly of claim 1 , wherein a ramped surface is formed on a side of the at least one second engaging portion for cooperating with the at least one lower tube during a process that the at least one lower tube is inserted into the at least one assembling portion to reach the locking position.

10. A multi-function high chair comprising:
a child seat;
at least one leg component installed on the child seat for supporting the child seat, the at least one leg component comprising an upper tube installed on the child seat and a lower tube detachably connected to the upper tube; and

at least one support portion slidably disposed on the child seat; and
a tray detachably disposed on the at least one support portion, the tray comprising a tray body and at least one sliding latch slidably disposed on the tray body, at least one assembling portion being formed on the tray body for insertion of the lower tube, the at least one sliding latch comprising:
a first engaging portion for engaging with the at least one support portion; and
at least one second engaging portion for engaging with the lower tube inserted within the at least one assembling portion at a locking position.

11. The multi-function high chair of claim 10 , wherein at least one engaging recess is formed on a side of the at least one support portion, and the at least one sliding latch is located at a position corresponding to the at least one engaging recess for engaging with or disengaging from the at least one engaging recess.

12. The multi-function high chair of claim 10 , wherein the at least one sliding latch further comprises an operating portion connected to the first engaging portion and the at least one second engaging portion.

13. The multi-function high chair of claim 12 , wherein the operating portion is fixedly connected to the at least one second engaging portion, and a relief slit is formed on a connection between the operating portion and at least one second engaging portion.

14. The multi-function high chair of claim 12 , wherein the operating portion is at least partially exposed out of the tray body, the first engaging portion is exposed out of the tray body, and the at least one second engaging portion is received inside the tray body.

15. The multi-function high chair of claim 12 , wherein a sliding slot is formed on the operating portion, a middle portion of the at least one second engaging portion is pivotally installed on the tray body and located at a position outside the sliding slot, a sliding pin protrudes from an end of the at least one second engaging portion through the sliding slot, another end of the at least one second engaging portion is adapted for engaging with the at least one lower tube, and the operating portion drives the another end of at least one second engaging portion to pivotally disengage from the at least one lower tube by cooperation of the sliding pin and the sliding slot.

16. The multi-function high chair of claim 15 , wherein the sliding pin is driven by the at least one lower tube to slide relative to the sliding slot during a process that the at least one lower tube is inserted into the at least one assembling portion to reach the locking position.

17. The multi-function high chair of claim 10 , wherein a slot is formed on the at least one assembling portion and located at a position corresponding to the at least one second engaging portion for allowing the at least one second engaging portion to pass therethrough to engage with the lower tube.

18. The multi-function high chair of claim 10 , wherein a ramped surface is formed on a side of the at least one second engaging portion for cooperating with the lower tube during a process that the lower tube is inserted into the at least one assembling portion to reach the locking position.
