Abstract: An inclinable stool for supporting the weight of the body and permitting a variety of inclined positions comprises a tripod base, supporting a vertically extending spring hinge assembly, a support column mounted on the spring hinge assembly and inclinable relative thereto, and a seat assembly disposed on the support column. A pair of spaced stabilizing members slidably and pivotally mounted to the support column rotate with the seat assembly and support column, thereby supporting the seated user against backwardly directed inclinations while allowing forward and lateral inclinations, regardless of the rotated position of the seat.

Abstract: A stool type seat having a base with floor engaging suction cups to hold the stool in place, the single supporting post having a spring centered hinge to allow the post to tilt in any direction. A saddle type seat is rotatably mounted on top of the post. Stabilizing legs are attached to the post and are hinged to allow the post to swing forward and to some extent to either side, but the legs lock when the post is upright to prevent the stool from tipping over backwards. The structure folds and breaks down into compact components for transportation and storage.
