Abstract: A seat assembly is constructed such that the consumer can secure the base to the seat without using any tools. A consumer inserts a tab at one end of a mounting plate into a slot at one end of a base plate secured to a seat. An opening on the mounting plate is moved to receive a latch on the base plate. An actuator allows the consumer to retract a spring-loaded latch bolt on the latch to move the latch through the opening. The spring-loaded latch bolt then secures the mounting plate against the base plate. In order to limit the ability of the mounting plate to slide with respect to the base plate, projections on the base plate pass through mounting plate apertures. The seat assembly may also include controls for seat height and seat reclining resistance, as well as a seat back.

Abstract: A no-tools chair and chair arm assembly is disclosed. The assembly includes an armrest support configured and arranged to connect to a seat of a chair. The armrest support has mating formations thereon. A backrest support is configured and arranged to connect to a backrest of a chair. The backrest support is pivotally connected to the armrest support. A chair arm has an armrest portion and support member depends from the armrest portion. A connector extends from the support member and has reciprocal mating formations thereon configured and arranged to interlock with the mating formations on the armrest support. The chair arm locks the backrest support in position when coupled to the armrest portion.

Abstract: A panel television support and mounting kit allows the consumer to employ any of the three modes of support, namely stand mount, elevated console mount and wall mount. The elevated console mount incorporates a vertical spine to elevate the panel television above the console and an offset arm to support the television over an upper shelf of the console. A mounting structure is provided that can be attached to the spine or to a wall. Pivoting and tilting is accommodated by the mounting structure.

Abstract: A ready to assemble chair base includes three leg components. First and second leg components each include two of the five legs, and a third leg component includes a single leg. A hub portion of all three components includes a portion of the central tapered hole. The hub portions of the first and second components join together with vertical interlocking surfaces slidably locking together in the direction of the axis of the central tapered hole. The hub of the third leg component is formed in the shape of a tenon blade and is inserted into a horizontal mortise slot (perpendicular to the axis of the central hole) formed by the interlocked hubs of the first and second leg components. A gas lift post is received into the center, tapered hole of the assembled base locking all three components together.

Abstract: A storage rack system is provided that includes an improved cross bar attachment to create the framing for storage shelves. The cross bars are locked or secured against undesired movement and rolling to create a shelf that properly supports loads. The cross bars extend between the deck beams such that flanges at the ends thereof overlap the top of the deck beams. The flanges include a tab that extends downwardly to engage with an opening on the top of the deck beams. The lateral support further includes a stabilizer that is fastened to the side wall of the deck beams to prevent rolling or dislodgement of either member.

Abstract: A corner joint system for fastening two perpendicular furniture panels to form a box corner includes first and second male connector rails and a female connector rail. The male connector rails each include a base having a longitudinal spline extending inwardly from an inner surface. The male connector rails are secured in adjacent relation to adjacent corner surfaces of the furniture panels such that the respective splines are arranged in adjacent perpendicular relation. The female connector rail includes a main body portion having an upper end and a lower end, and two perpendicular, longitudinal, spline channels extending upwardly through the main body portion from the lower end to the upper end. The spline channels of the female connector rail are slidably received in interfitting relation over the adjacent splines of the male connector rails to cooperatively capture the splines and interlock the rails, forming a rigid, right angle box corner.

Abstract: A panel television mounting assembly includes a mounting frame, and a reversible shelf for supporting a television accessory either above or below the panel television. The mounting frame includes a back configured and arranged to be secured to a support structure such as a wall or a supporting spine structure on a console, and a front configured and arranged to receive and support a flat panel television. The reversible shelf can be assembled with the mounting frame in a first configuration wherein the shelf is adjacent the top of the mounting frame with for supporting a television accessory above a panel television, or in a second configuration wherein the shelf is adjacent the bottom of the mounting frame for supporting a television accessory below a panel television.

Abstract: A universal TV support and mounting kit allows the consumer to employ any of the three modes of support, namely stand mount, console mount and wall mount. The console mount incorporates a vertical spine and a cantilever arm to support the television over the console. A mounting frame is provided that can be attached to the cantilever arm or to a wall. Pivoting and tilting is accommodated by the cantilever arm.
