Abstract: A folding or stacking chair has a seat and a backrest carried between opposite frame sides each with a backrest support, a front leg and a rear leg. One or both of the seat and the backrest has a continuous sheet of flexible and elastic knitted mesh or patterned open texture plastic held across and substantially covering an opening in an open-end hoop coupled between the frame sides. An open-end of the hoop faces in a front or a back orientation for the seat, or a top or a bottom orientation for the backrest, with sides of the hoop attached to the frame sides. The sheet of mesh or textured plastic has a finished edge spanning the open-end of the hoop.

Abstract: A bench includes at least two feet, a plurality of seat plates, a back plate, and an armrest. A back portion is extended from an upper edge of each foot, and a cushion portion is formed at a bottom of the back portion. The seat plates and the back plates are fixed to the cushion portions and the back portions of the feet by bolts, and the armrests are fixed to the back plate and two lateral sides of the seat plate by bolts so as to form a strong and fine bench.

Abstract: A seat frame is manufactured from a single continuous elongated member or which has the appearance of being formed from a single continuous elongated piece of material. For example, the seat frame may be formed from a single continuous elongated member such as a tube or wire which is bent or twisted into shape. Alternatively, a plurality of elongated members generally having similar cross-sections may be used to form the seat frame, which has the appearance of one-piece construction. The back may be integral with the seat frame thereby not requiring additional back support material. Further, the back may represent an abstract or a recognizable object.

Abstract: A collapsible high chair is provided. The collapsible high chair comprises a front frame including a pair of middle front tubes and a substantially U-shaped lower front tube, the pair of middle front tubes and the lower front tube being detachably engaged with each other by fastening devices; and a rear frame including a substantially U-shaped upper rear tube and a substantially U-shaped lower rear tube, the upper rear tube and the lower rear tube being detachably engaged with each other by fastening devices. The front frame and the rear frame are pivotally connected to each other so that the front frame and the rear frame pivot and approach with respect to each other, thereby allowing the high chair to be in a collapsed state.

Abstract: A sign holding device for a folding chair that allows the user to display customized messages on a back rest of the chair. The sign holder is attached to the back rest in various manners so as to permit messages to be displayed when the chair is unfolded. The sign holders are configures such that when the chair is folded, the chair can be carried and stacked without having to remove the sign holders from the back rest. One embodiment of the folding chair also includes an integral carrying handle that permits the folded chair to be carried by one hand. The integral carrying handle further comprises an opening that permits the carrying hand to grasp the handle better, and also permit the chair to be unfolded without removing the hand from the handle, such that the unfolding action does not pinch the carrying hand.

Abstract: A folding chair is provided having a first front leg, a second front leg, a first rear leg, a second rear leg, a first link, a second link, a chair seat, and a backrest. The chair seat includes a seat member, a first support bracket, a second support bracket, and a cross-bar connecting the first and second support brackets. The first front leg, the first rear leg, the first link, and the first support bracket form a first four-bar linkage. The second front leg, the second rear leg, the second like, and the second support bracket form a second four-bar linkage.

Abstract: A lightweight, inexpensive folding chair may have a seat with an interference fit support bracket may be provided. The seat may have a lightweight seat member constructed of a lightweight material, such as a blow-molded plastic, that is generally supported by two such support brackets. The support brackets may be affixed to the lightweight seat member by sliding the lightweight seat member into interference engagement with the support brackets. Thus, the lightweight seat member is supported against bending when the chair is in use, in a way that does not concentrate stresses in the lightweight seat member to cause deformation and failure. The support brackets may have an enclosing shape so that the lightweight seat member is unable to move laterally or transversely out of engagement with the support brackets. The support brackets may thus have lips extending into the lightweight seat member to provide the enclosing shape.

Abstract: A folding chair with a front chair leg pivotally connected to a rear chair leg at a pivot point. The front leg has an elongated slide with a slide washer. A slide magazine having a U-shaped cross-section is movably disposed in the slide of the front chair leg. A bottom end of the slide magazine includes a fitting hole to receive a rear pivot shaft of the seat. The rear chair leg is pivotally connected to the front chair leg at the pivot point. The pivoting sections of the seat and front and rear chair legs are all hidden, with only the pivot point exposed. The chair is light and easy to operate.

Abstract: A tilting chair comprising: a support board integrating a seat and back support to be elastically transformable backwards when a user places pressure onto the back support; a frame having a back support part, horizontally coupled at an external surface of the back support, a pair of rear legs extending from both left and right sides of the back supporting part downwards the floor, a pair of feet bent at ends of the rear legs and extending forwardly along the floor surface, a pair of front legs extending upwardly from the front ends of the feet, a front side seat support part bent and extending at both upper ends of the front legs to support the front portion of the seat, and a rear side seat support part connecting a center portion of the rear legs to support the rear portion of the seat; and flanges and coupling units respectively assembled at an external surface of the back support part and the lower surface of the seat to make a user feel comfortable because the back support is smoothly tilted backwards wh

Abstract: A folding chair has a support frame with a back support portion, front leg portions, and rear legs. A seat is pivotally coupled to the support frame. A flexible back support is coupled to the support frame, and has a lumbar support member extending down from the back support to reach a lumbar region of a user's back. The lumbar support member extends from the back support into a space between the back support and seat. The seat pivots in a downward direction away from the back support and lumbar support ID member, so that the seat folds without interfering with the lumbar support member. The back support also has a perimeter flange disposed across the rigid back support perimeter, and free to move with respect to the rigid support frame in response to a load applied to the flexible back support.

Abstract: A structure A for supporting the seat of a height-adjustable chair, the construction comprising leg members including a front leg unit 1 and an auxiliary leg 2 which are longitudinally disposed, and a bracket 4 having a front engagement piece 6 and a rear engagement piece 7 which are disposed in both of the front and rear sides of the leg members. When the bracket 4 is inclined rearward, it can be moved in the vertical direction along the leg members. When the bracket 4 is returned forward in a use state, the front and rear engagement pieces come into engagement with the leg members and the bracket 4 is fixed. A projection 13 is provided on a side face of the bracket 4. The projection 13 comes into contact with a side face of the leg member with a frictional action when the bracket 4 is inclined forward, and the contact is cancelled when the front side of the bracket 4 is lifted.
