Abstract: A combined teapoy and footrest includes a rectangular table top having a bottom provided with four seats, an outer leg frame including two first legs and a cross bar mounted between the two first legs, each of the first legs having a through hole close to an upper end thereof pivotally connected with a respective one of the seats, an inner side of each of the first legs having an intermediate portion formed with a J-shaped groove having an indentation, and a notch between the through hole and the J-shaped groove, and an inner leg fame including two second legs and a cross bar mounted between the two second legs, each of the second legs having a through hole close to an upper end thereof pivotally connected with a respective one of the seats, an inner side of each of the second legs having an intermediate portion provided with a protuberance configured to be engageable with the J-shaped groove and the notch.

Abstract: A system for supporting a user's arm, comprises an armrest. The armrest is suspended and supported from a horizontally movable structure comprising a vertically movable member through which the armrest is suspended, a counterbalancing return-force producing assembly connected to the vertically movable member to counterbalance at least in part the weight of the user's arm, and a movement-resisting assembly connected to the vertically movable member to resist to vertical movement of the vertically movable member. According to a preferred embodiment, the vertically movable member comprises a cable, the counterbalancing return-force producing assembly comprises a first, spring-loaded reel, and the movement-resisting assembly comprises a second reel on which turns of the cable are wound and provided with at least one lateral face, and at least one friction disk applied to the lateral face of the second reel to resist to vertical movement of the wire.

Abstract: The clip includes two locking arms with proximal segments joining the outer periphery, distal segments forming a tube pocket, and hinge elements between the proximal segments and the distal segments. The distal segments include outwardly turned locking elements. An interior frame joined to said outer periphery includes locking pockets complementary to the locking elements. A tube pocket is formed between the distal segments of the locking arms and a portion of the interior frame. As the distal segments of the locking arms flex outwardly in response to the insertion of a tubular element, the outwardly turned locking elements are urged into the locking pockets.
