que, como el aquí preconizado, estando destinados a su uso por parte de niños de corta edad, se convierten de trona en silla o en silla con pupitre y viceversa.that, like the one recommended here, being intended for use by young children, they become high chairs or chairs with desks and vice versa.

Sin embargo, además de que la estructura y modo de transformación de dichos muebles es muy distinta a la del aquí propuesto, las posibilidades de transformación de dicho tipo de muebles se reducen exclusivamente a ello, es decir, solo sirven como trona y como pupitre, o solo como trona y como silla, pero ninguno de ellos se transforma, además, en una torre de aprendizaje, la cual, por su parte, constituye por sí misma una novedad totalmente desconocida hasta ahora en el mercado.However, in addition to the fact that the structure and mode of transformation of said furniture is very different from that proposed here, the possibilities of transformation of said type of furniture are reduced exclusively to that, that is, they only serve as a high chair and as a desk, or only as a high chair and as a chair, but none of them is also transformed into a learning tower, which, for its part, constitutes by itself a novelty totally unknown until now in the market.

En dicho sentido, la mencionada torre de aprendizaje constituye un innovador elemento que viene a cubrir una carencia en el abanico de tipos de mueble infantiles existentes actualmente en el mercado, y que, diseñada para su aplicación como herramienta inspirada en la metodología de vida práctica Montessori, permite ayudar a los más pequeños a desarrollar la curiosidad e independencia, ya que tiene como finalidad proporcionar una plataforma elevada y segura para permitir a los niños de corta edad subirse en ella y poder llegar por sí solos a la altura de la encimera de la cocina, del baño, de un mostrador, de una mesa o de otras superficies demasiado altas para su estatura y con ello poder realizar más cómodamente labores de forma autónoma o poder colaborar en las que realizan los adultos, por ejemplo el aseo personal o la elaboración de una receta de cocina, etc., lógicamente siempre bajo la supervisión de un adulto, en todo caso evitando la utilización de taburetes u otro elementos para encaramarse que pueden ser inestables y provocar accidentes.In this sense, the aforementioned learning tower constitutes an innovative element that comes to cover a lack in the range of types of children's furniture currently in the market, and which, designed for application as a tool inspired by the Montessori practical life methodology , it helps children to develop curiosity and independence, as it aims to provide a high and safe platform to allow young children to climb on it and be able to reach themselves at the height of the countertop of the kitchen, bathroom, a counter, a table or other surfaces too high for your height and thus be able to perform more comfortably work autonomously or to collaborate in those performed by adults, for example personal hygiene or processing of a recipe, etc., logically always under the supervision of an adult, in any case avoiding the use of stools or tro elements for perching that can be unstable and cause accidents.

Por otra parte, una segunda finalidad de la presente invención es, integrar la descrita torre de aprendizaje en un mueble de uso casi imprescindible para los niños pequeños como es la trona, gracias a la cual se les puede dar de comer y dejar que coman en la mesa, de tal modo que la descrita torre no suponga un mueble adicional de notable volumen al que haya buscar un espacio de colocación y almacenamiento, especialmente por la carencia de espacio que suelen tener hoy en día la mayoría de viviendas y hogares.On the other hand, a second purpose of the present invention is to integrate the described learning tower into a piece of furniture almost essential for young children such as the high chair, thanks to which they can be fed and allowed to eat in the table, in such a way that the described tower does not suppose an additional piece of furniture of remarkable volume to which there is to look for a space of placement and storage, especially for the lack of space that the majority of houses and homes usually have today.

Finalmente, un último objetivo de la invención es integrar en el mismo mueble, además de la torre de aprendizaje y la trona, otro elemento de gran utilidad y versatilidad para los niños pequeños como es un pupitre, y en el cual pueden comer, jugar, pintar o hacer tareas escolares durante bastante más tiempo del que usarán la torre de aprendizaje o la trona.Finally, a final objective of the invention is to integrate in the same piece of furniture, in addition to the learning tower and the high chair, another element of great utility and versatility for young children such as a desk, and in which they can eat, play, paint or do homework for much longer than they will use the learning tower or high chair.

Por todo ello, el propósito de la presente invención es dotar al mercado de un novedoso mueble infantil que aglutina, en un único volumen, los tres muebles descritos proporcionando a la vez las ventajas de cada uno de ellos.Therefore, the purpose of the present invention is to provide the market with a novel children's furniture that brings together, in a single volume, the three furniture described while providing the advantages of each of them.

Por otra parte, y como referencia al estado actual de la técnica, cabe señalar que, si bien como se ha señalado existen algunos muebles transformables de trona en pupitre o en silla y viceversa, al menos por parte del solicitante, se desconoce la existencia de ningún mueble infantil transformable ni ninguna otra invención similar que presente unas características técnicas, estructurales y constitutivas iguales o semejantes a las que presenta el que aquí se reivindica.On the other hand, and as a reference to the current state of the art, it should be noted that, although as indicated there are some transformable highchair furniture in a desk or chair and vice versa, at least by the applicant, the existence of no transformable children's furniture or any other similar invention that has technical, structural and constitutive characteristics equal or similar to those presented here.

Para ello, las mencionadas dos partes de la estructura del mueble consisten, preferentemente, en una primera parte inferior fija, que comprende una balda transversal sujeta a media altura entre dos tabiques laterales, y una segunda parte móvil, que comprende una base plana sujeta ente otros dos tabiques laterales, estando ambas partes, que tienen la misma anchura, unidas de modo articulado entre sí y con posibilidad de pivotar, de tal modo que la parte móvil, se puede situar encima de la parte inferior para que el mueble se transforme en torre o trona, o delante de esta para que se transforme en pupitre.To this end, the mentioned two parts of the furniture structure preferably consist of a first fixed lower part, which comprises a transverse shelf held halfway between two lateral partitions, and a second movable part, which comprises a flat base held together. two other lateral partitions, both parts being the same width, joined together in an articulated manner and with the possibility of pivoting, so that the movable part can be placed above the lower part so that the furniture is transformed into tower or high chair, or in front of it so that it becomes a desk.

De este modo, con la parte móvil situada sobre la parte inferior fija, la base de la misma define una plataforma para la torre de aprendizaje en la que se sube el niño, y los tabiques laterales de dicha parte móvil definen respectivos antepechos a ambos lados de dicha plataforma, para evitar que el niño pueda caerse por los lados, mientras que la balda de la parte inferior define un escalón para poder subir fácilmente a la plataforma que define dicha base, ya que, preferentemente, los tabiques laterales de la parte inferior son algo más largos, al menos en su mitad inferior, que los tabiques laterales de la parte móvil, de modo que dicha balda queda ligeramente adelantada respecto de la antedicha plataforma.Thus, with the mobile part located on the fixed lower part, the base thereof defines a platform for the learning tower on which the child climbs, and the side partitions of said mobile part define respective rails on both sides. of said platform, to prevent the child from falling down the sides, while the shelf of the lower part defines a step to be able to easily climb to the platform that defines said base, since, preferably, the side partitions of the lower part they are somewhat longer, at least in their lower half, than the side partitions of the movable part, so that said shelf is slightly forward with respect to the aforementioned platform.

Además, preferentemente, los tabiques laterales de ambas partes, al menos en los de la parte móvil, están unidos entre sí a través de unos travesaños que, cuando el mueble se posiciona como torre quedarán la parte anterior del mismo, es decir, la que se adose a la superficie alta a que se desea acercar al niño, y cuando el mueble se posiciona como trona quedarán en la parte posterior del mismo como respaldo para la espalda del niño sentado sobre el asiento, los cuales travesaños actúan de refuerzo de la estructura y, además, en dicha parte móvil, se elevan hasta el borde superior de los tabiques laterales que a su vez presentan cierta altura, de manera que entre unos y otros actúan de antepecho de seguridad para evitar que el niño pueda caerse de la plataforma elevada que define la base de dicha parte móvil del mueble.In addition, preferably, the side partitions of both parts, at least in those of the movable part, are connected to each other by means of crossbars that, when the furniture is positioned as a tower will remain the front part thereof, that is, the one it is attached to the high surface to which the child is to be approached, and when the furniture is positioned as a high chair they will be on the back of the child as a backrest for the child sitting on the seat, which crossbars act as reinforcement of the structure and, in addition, in said movable part, they rise up to the upper edge of the lateral partitions that in turn have a certain height, so that between them they act as a safety sill to prevent the child from falling off the raised platform which defines the base of said movable part of the furniture.

Asimismo, en la estructura del mueble, como se ha comentado, se contempla la existencia de unos elementos intercambiables, entre los que comprende, al menos, una barra acoplable horizontalmente entre los tabiques laterales de la parte móvil, en la parte superior de estos, que actúa de barandilla de seguridad para evitar que el niño, subido en la plataforma, pueda caer por la parte posterior de la misma al quedar dicha barra a su espalda y pueda trabajar con seguridad sobre la superficie alta a la que dicha torre de trabajo leLikewise, in the structure of the furniture, as mentioned, the existence of interchangeable elements is contemplated, among which it comprises, at least, a horizontally attachable bar between the lateral partitions of the mobile part, at the top of these, which acts as a safety railing to prevent the child, up on the platform, can fall down the back of the platform when said bar is behind his back and can work safely on the high surface to which said work tower

permite llegar cómodamente.allows to arrive comfortably.

Para ello, preferentemente, ambos tabiques laterales presentan respectivos orificios en los que se inserta la barra, siendo asegurada, por ejemplo, a través de correspondientes pasadores.For this, preferably, both side walls have respective holes in which the bar is inserted, being secured, for example, through corresponding pins.

Paralelamente, en dicha posición de la parte móvil sobre la parte inferior fija, y sustituyendo o no a la descrita barandilla de seguridad, el mueble cuenta también con un asiento como elemento intercambiable para transformarlo en trona. Para ello, dicho asiento, preferentemente, está conformado a partir de una tabla que encaja ajustadamente entre los tabiques laterales de la parte móvil de la estructura del mueble e incorpora, en su lado frontal, una defensa con pilar central que sirve como barrera de seguridad para impedir que el niño se pueda resbalar por la parte anterior de la torna. En dicha posición, la balda de la parte inferior fija actúa como reposapiés.In parallel, in said position of the movable part on the fixed lower part, and replacing or not the described safety railing, the furniture also has a seat as an interchangeable element to transform it into a high chair. For this, said seat is preferably formed from a table that fits tightly between the side walls of the movable part of the furniture structure and incorporates, on its front side, a central pillar defense that serves as a safety barrier to prevent the child from sliding down the front part of the lathe. In this position, the shelf of the fixed lower part acts as a footrest.

Preferentemente, dicho encaje del asiento entre los tabique laterales de la parte móvil se puede efectuar a diferentes alturas, para regular la altura de la trona según va creciendo el niño. Para ello, preferentemente, los tabiques cuentan, en su parte interna, con dos o más guías paralelas, por ejemplo definidas por fresados practicados en ellas, en las que encaja la tabla del asiento.Preferably, said seat fitting between the side walls of the moving part can be made at different heights, to regulate the height of the highchair as the child grows. For this, preferably, the partitions have, in their internal part, two or more parallel guides, for example defined by milling made in them, in which the seat table fits.

Conviene mencionar, además, que los tabiques laterales de la parte móvil, que como se ha comentado tienen cierta altura para actuar de antepecho cuando el mueble se transforma en torre de aprendizaje, están provistos de respectivos entrantes para permitir, cuando el mueble se transforma en trona, arrimar la misma a una mesa de altura convencional, de tal modo que una parte de los mismos encaja por encima del tablero de la mesa y la otra queda por debajo, facilitando un óptimo uso del mueble como trona.It should also be mentioned that the side partitions of the mobile part, which, as mentioned above, have a certain height to act as a sill when the furniture is transformed into a learning tower, are provided with respective recesses to allow, when the furniture is transformed into high chair, to bring it to a table of conventional height, so that a part of them fits above the tabletop and the other is below, facilitating optimal use of the furniture as a highchair.

Y, al mover la parte móvil y colocarla frente a la parte inferior fija, haciéndola pivotar sobre la unión articulada que une ambas partes, la estructura define un pupitre, donde la base de la parte móvil, que ahora queda en la parte superior de dicha parte, determina el tablero de una mesa y se sitúa frente a la parte fija donde la balda actúa de banco para que el niño se siente.And, by moving the movable part and placing it in front of the fixed lower part, pivoting it on the articulated joint that joins both parts, the structure defines a desk, where the base of the movable part, which now remains at the top of said part, determines the board of a table and is placed in front of the fixed part where the shelf acts as a bench so that the child feels.

Preferentemente, los laterales de la parte inferior fija cuentan, en su parte superior, con unaPreferably, the sides of the fixed lower part have, in their upper part, a

pieza de unión en forma de arco que, además de reforzar el conjunto, amplia la superficie de la mesa, ya que queda coplanaria con la base de la parte móvil en dicha posición de pupitre.arc-shaped connecting piece that, in addition to strengthening the assembly, widens the table surface, since it is coplanar with the base of the movable part in said desk position.

Es importante destacar que la configuración estructural del mueble permite realizar dicho movimiento pivotaje de la parte móvil sobre la parte fija, para transformarlo en pupitre, independientemente de que incorpore la barra de seguridad prevista para su uso como torre o el asiente de la trona, ya que ambos elementos, una vez colocados, quedan fijados a ella.It is important to emphasize that the structural configuration of the furniture allows to perform said pivoting movement of the mobile part on the fixed part, to transform it into a desk, regardless of whether it incorporates the safety bar intended for use as a tower or the seat of the high chair, since that both elements, once placed, are fixed to it.

Preferentemente, además, la estructura contempla la existencia de unos cierres de seguridad para bloquear el movimiento entre las dos partes de la misma una vez dispuestas en las diferentes posiciones, en las posiciones de torre y trona en que la parte móvil queda situada sobre la parte fija, evitando cualquier posibilidad de que, con el movimiento del niño se puedan mover entre sí, y en la posición de pupitre para que ambas partes queden perfectamente unidas y no puedan moverse con el consiguiente riesgo de pillarse los dedos.Preferably, in addition, the structure contemplates the existence of safety locks to block the movement between the two parts thereof once arranged in the different positions, in the tower and high chair positions in which the mobile part is located on the part fixed, avoiding any possibility that, with the movement of the child, they can move with each other, and in the desk position so that both parts are perfectly joined and cannot move with the consequent risk of catching their fingers.

Finalmente, también como medio de seguridad, la estructura contempla, preferentemente, la existencia de unas patas de seguridad para aumentar la estabilidad del mueble en su posición de torre y de trona, donde la parte móvil queda situada sobre la parte inferior fija, las cuales patas, además, son escamoteables, es decir, se puede ocultar para ocupar menos espacio cuando el mueble no se usa y se quiere guardar arrimado a algún sitio, ya que dicha patas están determinadas por respectivos listones que se prolongan por la parte posterior e inferior de ambos tabiques laterales de la parte inferior fija de la estructura del mueble.Finally, also as a security means, the structure preferably contemplates the existence of safety legs to increase the stability of the furniture in its tower and highchair position, where the movable part is located on the fixed lower part, which In addition, the legs are retractable, that is, it can be hidden to occupy less space when the furniture is not used and you want to keep it close to some place, since said legs are determined by respective slats that extend along the back and bottom of both lateral partitions of the fixed lower part of the furniture structure.

Por último, cabe señalar que, en la realización preferida, la estructura del mueble y todos sus elementos son de madera maciza, y opcionalmente, por ejemplo en los tabiques laterales de ambas partes, incorpora elementos gráficos y/u ornamentales.Finally, it should be noted that, in the preferred embodiment, the furniture structure and all its elements are made of solid wood, and optionally, for example in the side partitions of both parts, it incorporates graphic and / or ornamental elements.

El descrito mueble infantil transformable representa, pues, una innovación de características estructurales y constitutivas desconocidas hasta ahora, razones que unidas a su utilidad práctica, la dotan de fundamento suficiente para obtener el privilegio de exclusividad que se solicita.The described transformable children's furniture represents, therefore, an innovation of structural and constitutive characteristics unknown until now, reasons that, together with its practical utility, provide it with sufficient grounds to obtain the privilege of exclusivity that is requested.
