Is a high chair patented?

Short answer: specific designs of a high chair have been patented many times, but "a high chair" as a general idea is not what is protected. What matters is the exact combination of features in your version.

What our index shows
  • 233 US and WO patent publications since 2000 have a title matching “high chair” or a close variant (our index of 9.7 million patent families; one publication per family).
  • Among the 199 best keyword matches we examined, 49 were published in 2020 or later, and the earliest was published in 2000.
  • Most frequent assignees in those matches: WONDERLAND NURSERY GOODS (13), WONDERLAND SWITZERLAND AG (10), LINK TREASURE LTD (7), REGALO INT LLC (4).
  • Most common patent classes (CPC subclasses): A47D (192), A47C (35), A47G (10), A41B (9).

Counts come from keyword matching on titles and abstracts, so they are indicative, not a legal count. Some matches are different products that share a word.

What this means for your idea

Because patents cover specific combinations of features, the useful question is not “has a high chair been patented?” but “has my combination of features been described before?” Baby and child products are heavily patented and safety-driven; compare the locking, restraint and cleaning features carefully.
