An adjustable booster-type seat having a base 10 for supporting the seat on a flat surface, a riser 12 mounted for height adjustment on the base, a body support 14 having a seat and back mounted for arcuate motion on the riser 12 for changing the angular position of the body support 14 and being adjustable in height by virtue of the adjustability of the riser on the base. A restraint bar 16 is detachably connected to the body support and in turn adjustably carries a tray 18 enabling the tray to be moved toward and away form the back and to be mounted at different angles with respect to the body support 14.
1. A booster seat for use on a supporting surface, the booster seat comprising,
a base and a riser on the base,
a track carried by the riser and a body support mounted on the track enabling said body support to move between an upright and reclined position,
a restraint including a tray mounting portion and a post mounted on the body support for retaining a child in the body support,
and a tray moveably received on the tray mounting portion and configured for adjustment between at least a first tray position, a second tray position, and a third tray position, wherein the tray, in the first tray position, is closer to the body support than in the second tray position, and wherein an angular relationship between the tray and the body support in the first and second tray positions is different than the angular relationship between the tray and the body support in the third tray position.
2. A booster seat as defined in claim 1 wherein the body support includes a seat and backrest.
3. A booster seat as defined in claim 2 wherein the body support is a unitized structure that moves as a unit on the riser.
4. A booster seat as defined in claim 2 wherein the backrest is collapsible for reducing the size of the booster for travel and storage.
5. A booster seat as defined in claim 1 wherein the riser is moveably mounted to the base and is configured to assume several riser positions, including at least a first riser position where the body support is positioned away from the supporting surface and a second riser position where the body support is positioned proximate the supporting surface.
6. A booster seat comprising,
a base and a body support having a pair of arcuate tracks running fore and aft, one on each side of the base,
a seat and back assembly having a fixed angular relationship mounted on the tracks for fore and aft and tilting motion to selectively move the assembly between an upright, reclined and intermediate orientations,
and adjusting mechanism operatively connected to the base and support for raising and lowering the seat and back assembly with respect to the base,
a restraining member attached to the seat and back assembly,
a tray moveably received on the restraining member and configured to be adjusted along the restraining member toward and away from the back assembly and for tilting adjustment with respect to the seat and back assembly, wherein the tray is configured to be placed in a substantially horizontal orientation when the seat and the backrest assembly is in both upright and tilted positions,
said back assembly having upper and lower portions enabling the upper portion to collapse down on the lower portion to reduce the volume of the booster seat for storage and travel.
7. A booster seat as described in claim 6 wherein the restraining member is detachable from the base.
