Abstract: A scissor-type banquet or event table comprises a tabletop removably coupled to and disposable upon a stand. The stand comprises a pair of leg frames pivotally coupled together at an intersection. The pair of leg frames comprise adjacent spars with each of the spars associated with a different one of the pair of leg frames. A safety spacer is disposed between the adjacent spars of the pair of leg frames and separates the adjacent spars. The safety spacer has a thickness so that the adjacent spars are spaced-apart by a gap greater than ¾? to resist pinching a user's fingers. In addition, the tabletop and the stand are coupled together with a snap-fit. The snap-fit comprises detents between the tabletop and the stand. Each detent is biased into a respective hole along an axis between the detent and the respective hole.

Abstract: A stacking chair system with a plurality of stacking chairs each comprising a seat frame and a backrest frame, and a pair of side legs on each side of the seat frame. A pair of side supports extends from a top of the backrest to a front of the seat. An upper chair is stackable upon a lower chair, with the pair of side legs of the upper chair inside the pair of side supports of the lower chair, and the pair of side legs of the lower chair inside the pair of legs of the upper chair.

Abstract: A banquet chair comprises a seat and a backrest carried by a plurality of legs. A pair of arcuate leaf springs flexibly couples the backrest to the plurality of legs. The pair of arcuate leaf springs is spaced-apart, and each is located closer to a different outside edge of the seat and the backrest than to each other or a middle of the seat and the backrest. Each of the pair of arcuate leaf springs has an outermost edge exposed through a lateral perimeter of the backrest.

Abstract: A two-piece chair frame assembly comprises a back piece and a front piece joined together to form a chair frame. The back and front pieces are separate and discrete pieces until joined together. The back piece comprises a pair of rear legs, a backrest frame, and a back seat frame portion. The front piece comprises a pair of front legs and a front seat frame portion. The front and back seat frame portions join together to form a seat frame. The back and front pieces have different surface characteristics.

Abstract: A chair has a frame with legs, a seat hoop carried by the legs, and a backrest extending above the seat hoop. A seat is carried by the seat hoop of the frame, and has a seat base with a cushion. A perimeter lip circumscribes the seat base and rests over the seat hoop. The seat base has a flexible and resilient corrugated interior capable of deflecting under weight and returning when the weight is removed. An annular bottom projection projects from the seat base between the perimeter lip and the corrugated interior and into the seat hoop, and has an annular bottom surface substantially flush with the lower surface of the seat hoop.

Abstract: A folding table has an integrated electrical power outlet. The table has a tabletop with a horizontal orientation supported in an elevated position by at least a pair of legs or leg assemblies pivotally coupled at opposite sides of the tabletop and pivotal between a closed storage position against the tabletop and an open elevated position extending transverse to the tabletop. The tabletop has a bottom framework with a perimeter rail extending along at least a portion of a perimeter the tabletop and defining at least a portion of the perimeter of the tabletop. The perimeter rail is segmented and defines a rail gap in the perimeter rail, with the perimeter rail having opposing ends at the rail gap. The electrical power outlet is spliced into the perimeter rail at the rail gap and spans the rail gap in the perimeter rail.

Abstract: A foldable stool comprises legs pivotally coupled together and a seat pivotally coupled to and carried by the legs. The seat is split into a pair of seat portions that is pivotally coupled together. A handle is formed in, and is coextensive with, one of the pair of seat portions. The handle is pivotal with respect to another of the seat portions. A lock positively holds the handle with respect to the another of the seat portions when the pair of seat portions are in a seat orientation.

Abstract: A folding mesh chair includes a seat and a backrest carried between opposite frame sides. The chair has an unfolded seating position in which the seat pivots to extend from the frame sides and bottoms of front and rear legs move apart, and a folded position in which the seat pivots toward the frame sides and the front and rear legs move together. One or both of the seat and the backrest have a continuous sheet of flexible and elastic mesh or patterned open texture plastic held across and substantially covering an opening in an all-plastic hoop fixed between the frame sides.

Abstract: A chair has a frame with legs, a seat hoop carried by the legs, and a backrest extending above the seat hoop. A seat is carried by the seat hoop of the frame, and has a seat base with a cushion. A perimeter lip circumscribes the seat base and rests over the seat hoop. The seat base has a flexible and resilient corrugated interior capable of deflecting under weight and returning when the weight is removed. An annular bottom projection projects from the seat base between the perimeter lip and the corrugated interior and into the seat hoop, and has an annular bottom surface substantially flush with the lower surface of the seat hoop.
