   This pin 133 constitutes a. component for a releasable or frictionally releasable latch 135 for securing infant seat 113 to support assembly 112 and is described in more detail below.



   In. Referring to Figures 11 and 15, the assembly 115 formed the hind legs or feet, comprises a generally U-shaped bar 136 which is attached to the top of the cross bar to define with the cross bar a rectangular slot , usually centrally located and intended for rece. see a tab or the like, for uses which will be described below.



   Referring to Figures 10, 11, 12 and 14, the infant seat 113 comprises a metallic tubular frame 137 consisting of a horizontal U-shaped tube 138 and an elbow tube 139 fixedly connected, for example by rivets 140, to the tube. tube 138.



  The elbow tube 139 is bent into a configuration which presents a pair of spaced upright upright arms 141 and a horizontal connecting piece 142 aligned or flush with and adjacent to the top tube 138. A cap 143, for example of plastic material, is attached to each end of tube 139 below the plane of horizontal tube 138 to support infant seat 113 on a level surface. Infant seat 113 also includes a chair or armchair 144 which conforms to receive an infant or small child in a usual sitting position.

   The armchair or the chair 133 is in a material

 <Desc / Clms Page number 22>

 suitable plastic and is articulated - or pivotally fixed ... for example by journals or pins 145, at intermediate points of the arms 141 of the tubular frame 137, so that it can pivot substantially within the limits of the arms 141 (fig. Station 14), the center of gravity of an occupant being located below the plane of the pivot points.



   Referring to Figures 1112 and 14, in order to secure the chair or armchair 144 in place within the tubular frame 139 a pair of orifice brackets 146, each of which contains a number of slots 147, for example 4 in number, is attached to the back surface of the chair or armchair
144 and cooperates with a U-shaped bar 148 articulated or mounted to pivot on the arms 141 and passing through the consoles 146 Each console 146 comprises small- pins, lugs -button (not shown), provided on the side walls of the -slits 147, which are spaced so as to retain the bar 148 in a slot after the bar 148 has passed sharply past these studs or lugs.

   Bar 148 is biased by a pair of torsion springs 148 ', connected to arms 141 and bar 148, toward the chair or chair. 144 and manually rotated to enter any of the slots 147 in the console 146, so as to secure the chair or chair 144 relative to the tubular frame 137.

   Since the console 146 is a closed orifice, the bar 148 cannot fall out or. out of the chair or armchair 144 and thus constitutes an automatic stopper to prevent the chair or armchair 144 from continuing to pivot towards the bitter relative to the tubular frame 137 In a similar manner the continuous pivoting forward is prevented through the lowest-lowest slot 147 in console 146.



   Referring to Figures 11 and 14, where the infant seat
