Abstract: A buoyant pool lounge chair frame and buoyant pool lounge chair using the same are disclosed. In one embodiment of the buoyant pool lounge chair for supporting a person while the buoyant pool chair is floating in water, frame members collectively form an open chair frame including a back frame and leg frame pivotally coupled thereto. Buoyant cushions are attached to the frame members to form a chair seat, a backrest, and a leg rest. A pair of rear pivotal coupling and clutch assemblies are coupled to the seat frame and to the back frame to adjust and fix the angle of recline of the back frame relative to the seat frame. Similarly, a pair of front pivotal coupling and clutch assemblies coupled to the leg frame and to the back frame to adjust and fix the angle of extension of the leg frame relative to the seat frame.

Abstract: A buoyant pool lounge chair is disclosed. In one embodiment of the buoyant pool lounge chair, frame members collectively form an open chair frame with buoyant cushions forming a chair seat and a backrest as well as a left arm rest and a right arm rest. The left arm rest and the right arm rest are each intersected by a cup holder. A recess in the cup holder has a forward tilt relative to a horizontal axis having an angle between approximately 20 degrees and approximately 40 degrees toward the front end of the buoyant pool lounge chair. In operation, when the buoyant pool lounge chair is supporting a person while the buoyant pool chair is floating in water, the forward tilt of the cup holder provides a compensating-leveling mechanism that mitigates spilling of liquid in the cup when the cup is placed within the cup holder.

Abstract: A buoyant pool float for floating in water is disclosed. In one embodiment, the buoyant pool float includes a body having a four-piece construction including an upper flotation member and a lower flotation member having a sidewall and bulkhead interposed therebetween. The upper flotation member is generally flat and sized to accommodate a human in a semi-reclining or reclining position, for example. Further, the upper flotation member is superposed above the lower flotation member, which is sized to correspond to a front end of the upper flotation member. The sidewall is positioned about the exterior of the body and the bulkhead within the interior of the body such that two sealed air holds are provided within the buoyant pool float. The two sealed air holds contribute to stability and buoyancy.

Abstract: A buoyant pool float for floating in water is disclosed. In one embodiment, the buoyant pool float includes a hingedly connected upper flotation member and lower flotation member. In a deployed position, the buoyant pool float provides an open unfolded engagement between the upper flotation member and the lower flotation member such that a continuous human reclining surface is provided from the upper end of the upper body to the lower end of the lower body. In a storage position, the buoyant pool float provides a closed folded-flat engagement between the upper flotation member and the lower flotation member such that the lower flotation member is nested against the upper flotation member.

Abstract: A buoyant pool lounge chair frame and buoyant pool lounge chair using the same are disclosed. In one embodiment of the buoyant pool lounge chair frame for supporting a floatation device while the buoyant pool chair frame is floating in water, a pod frame is provided including a rigid base portion and a window having a vertical opening therethrough. A substantially inverted parabolic surface is positioned at the front of the pod frame and a centra including a rigid back is positioned at the rear of the pod frame such that the window is therebetween. The pod frame is sized to accept a floatation device such that the substantially inverted parabolic surface and the centra engage the floatation device in a load-bearing relationship.
