ABSTRACT:
A toddler swing (10) includes a restraining bar assembly (11) having a cross bar (12) and a lower extension member (13), the restraining bar assembly (11) being positively attached to and releasable from the swing (10). A latch mechanism (19) connects the lower extension member (13) to the seat (14) of the swing (10) by engaging a generally J-shaped hook (25) of the lower extension member (13) with a generally J-shaped catch (21) located beneath the seat (14) of the swing (10) as part of a spring (20). In addition, the restraining bar assembly (11) includes bosses (34) formed on the cross bar (12) of the restraining bar assembly (11) to be received in recesses (38) in the arm rests (16) of the swing (10). Together, the latch mechanism (19) and the bosses (34) positively position and hold the restraining bar assembly (11) in place.
