A walking chair having a pair of opposed arcuate side frames and a front rod pivotally connected with corresponding first distal ends of the arcuate side frames, a rear rod opposed to the front rod and pivotally connected with corresponding second distal ends of the arcuate side frames, such that when a folding device which is provided at joints of the front rod and the first distal ends of the arcuate side frames and of the rear rod and the second distal ends of the arcuate side frames is activated, the arcuate side frames are able to be folded and then positioned in place to allow the arcuate side frames to engage with the ground to allow a walking chair converted into a rocking chair.
A combined baby walker/rocking chair comprises a chassis, a support, an upper frame, and a seat. The chassis and the upper frame are connected via the support. Two parallel transverse beams are mounted to a lower end of the support. Plural casters are mounted to an underside of the chassis. The chassis comprises two symmetric arcuate frames and two control devices that are constructed to allow a baby walker to be converted into a rocking chair, and vice versa, while providing a stable structure.
A support frame having a plurality of wheeled assemblies, mounted at corners of the support frame, each wheeled assembly including a substantially identical mechanism for extending and retracting a respective wheel assembly. Each mechanism has a locking member which includes a locking portion for selectively engaging locking apertures on a rotatable member which rotatably supports the wheel assembly. Each mechanism also includes a grip, spaced from the locking member, to facilitate rotation of the rotatable member and the respective wheel assembly between extended and retracted positions when the locking portion is disengaged from the locking apertures. When each wheel assembly is in an extended position, the support frame is able to roll on a suitable surface. Each wheel assembly is also capable of being retained in a retracted position housed within a recess in its associated housing.
