Abstract: Various implementations include a convertible swinging seat assembly. The assembly includes a seat and at least four suspenders. The seat includes four segments. A first end of a second segment is pivotably coupled to a second end of the first segment at a first joint. A first end of a third segment is pivotably coupled to a second end of the second segment at a second joint. A first end of a fourth segment is pivotably coupled to a second end of the third segment at a third joint. The first, second, and third joints are independently pivotable relative to each other. The suspenders each have a first suspender portion and a second suspender portion. The second suspender portion of each suspender is coupled to a different one of the first, second, third, and fourth segments.
