Abstract: A leaning chair can include a base defining a lower surface that rests on a floor, the base including a support surface; a shaft coupled to the base, the shaft defining a first end and a second end; a flexible mount coupling the first end of the shaft to the base, the shaft extending through the mount; a pivot pin located underneath the mount, the first end of the shaft resting on the pivot pin, and being configured to be housed inside the mount, the pivot pin being configured to pivot on the support surface; and a user support member coupled to the second end of the shaft.

Abstract: A constricting member of a chair footrest ring is revealed. The constricting member is mainly a constricting sleeve with a hole mounted on a center thereof. A plurality of tapered-shaped mounting and fixing parts is disposed projectingly on an outer surface of the constricting sleeve, from top to bottom and expanded outward. At least one trench is also formed on the outer surface of the constricting sleeve. A positioning projective ring is projecting from and integrally formed on an outer edge on a top end of the constricting sleeve. The structure is simple so that the manufacturing cost is reduced and the assembling is more convenient and faster.

Abstract: An item of seating furniture contains a seat providing a seat surface, a generally circular foot panel positioning the item of seating furniture on a floor, and a central part, which connects the seat to the foot panel and of which a vertical center axis runs centrally through the foot panel. The foot panel is of at least partially convex configuration and that side of the foot panel which is directed toward the floor is configured, at least in part, as a non-slip surface. This creates an ergonomic item of seating furniture which stands in a stable state.

Abstract: A chair structure comprises a seat frame having a first coupling element, a support base, and a pivot link assembly mounted on the support base. The pivot link assembly includes a pivot axle, and a second coupling element pivotally mounted around the pivot axle. The second coupling element includes a latch operable to lock the first coupling element with the second coupling element when the seat frame is assembled with the support base, and unlock the first coupling element from the second coupling element for allowing separation of the seat frame from the support base.

Abstract: An ergonomic pedestal seat that interacts with the sitter's musculoskeletal system in a way that optimizes their use of gravitational forces is provided. This seat orients a sitter toward an alignment that encourages a balance between gravity's descending force and its ascending counterforce, the ground reaction force. The seat comprises a four-tier seat base, a non-vertical central supporting column and a contoured seat pan. The base has a surface that allows the sitter to sustain a stable alignment and to rock forward or sideward or both, as well as a Lazy Susan mechanism that permits turning. This seat supports the sitter through a range of seated activities, including quiet activities such as meditation and complex tasks requiring reaching, bending and turning. When on this seat sitting becomes a source of pleasure rather than an activity of drudgery.

Abstract: The present invention provides a telescoping leg with a seat configured to collapsibly nest there within during a stowed mode and configured to be extracted and provide a seating surface atop the telescoping leg for supporting a person during a deployed mode. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention a portable stool is provided comprising a leg and a seat configured to collapse and nest within the leg during a stowed mode, the seat configured to be extracted from the leg for providing a seating surface atop the leg for supporting a person during a deployed mode. The present invention can be compacted to a small size so that is can be easily carried in a purse, bag, or pocket.

Abstract: A body support system for providing support to a user is provided. In certain embodiments, a body support system comprises a single leg having a first end and a second end; a seat attached to the first end of the single leg; a base attached to the second end of the single leg, the base having a curved surface capable of securely engaging a ground surface at a range of angles; and a strap having a first end and a second end wherein the first end of the strap is attached to the single-legged body support system and wherein the second end of the strap is capable of attaching to a user.

Abstract: A hunter's chair specifically designed for use in hunting blinds and/or tree stands includes a cushioned seat member with a cushioned backrest portion vertically extending therefrom. On the rear surface of the backrest portion is a pouch for receiving accessory items. Extending from the bottom surface of the seat member is a telescoping leg having a base structure on the lower end thereof The base structure includes a plurality of radially extending arms, each having an aperture at a distal end for receiving a fastener means to secure the chair to a support surface. A lever on the lower surface of the seat member operates a pneumatic lift assembly that extends and retracts the telescoping leg to adjust the height of the seat member.

Abstract: A stool having an elongated post with a top and a bottom along a generally longitudinal axis. A first threaded member is disposed at the top of the post and a second threaded member is disposed intermediate the top and bottom. The second threaded member is disposed about an axis substantially transverse to the axis of the first threaded member. A seat member having a third threaded member in or on the bottom thereof is adapted to selectively mate with the first and second threaded members so that the seat member has an operative position when the third threaded is engaged with the first threaded member and a storage position when the third threaded member is engaged with the second threaded member.
