Abstract: Disclosed herein are portable, collapsible rocking chairs for outdoor use. These rocking chairs have a plurality of chair arms (each chair arm having a proximal end and a distal end), a removable seat coupled to and supported by the distal ends of the plurality of chair arms, and a rocker assembly for rocking. An exemplary rocker assembly includes two rocker rails, one or more cross bars coupled to the rocker rails, and a plurality of arm ports for removably receiving the proximal end of each chair arm. Some rocker assemblies also include one or more hubs coupled to each rocker rail. The chair arms may comprise one or more hollow pole segments and an elastic cord coupling the pole segments and the rocker assembly.

Abstract: A device for indicating the approach of the end of a rope includes a stiffening mechanism located at or near the end of the rope which is sufficiently stiff and sufficiently long to warn a user moving along the rope that he is approaching its end, and the method of using such a rope.
