A seating arrangement includes a base member, and an integrally formed support member coupled to the base member and supporting a seat moveable from an upright position to a reclined position, wherein a portion of the support member is bendable as the seat moves from the upright position to the reclined position such that a first side of the support member is put in tension and a second side generally opposite the first side is put in compression, and wherein the first side includes a tensile substrate so that the first side has as higher modulus of elasticity than the second side.

A connecting structure for connecting support feet and a center piece, a support foot, a center piece, a chassis and a seat are provided. The connecting structure for connecting support feet and a center piece includes: center piece connecting portions provided on the outer periphery of the center piece for connecting with the support feet; support foot connecting portions provided on one end of the support feet for connecting with the center piece. Two side walls of each of the center piece connecting portions are further provided with rotation limit grooves, with a clamping platform arranged inside; two side surfaces of the support foot connecting portion are respectively provided with rotation limit protrusions outwardly protruding, an abutting portion is provided on the lower surface.

A chair of an aspect of the present disclosure includes: a support base; and a chair body including a seat frame that extends in the forward-rearward direction and forms at least part of a seat, and a back frame that is provided in the rear end of the seat frame to be pivotable around an axis O1 extending in the left-right direction, extends upward from the seat frame, and forms at least part of a backrest. The support base includes a slider that supports, in front of the axis O1, the seat frame movably in the forward-rearward direction, and a backrest-supporting shaft that supports, below the axis O1, the back frame pivotably around an axis O2 extending in the left-right direction.

A chair includes a leg 1, a seat 5 including a pressure receiving surface PS, a backrest 6, and a support mechanism SM. The seat 5 can move in the front-rear or left-right direction along a predetermined trajectory and to downwardly incline a tip side of the seat 5 in a movement direction in accordance with a movement of the seat 5 from a predetermined reference position (S). The support mechanism SM includes a return-force generation unit configured to generate, in accordance with an amount of movement, a return force in a direction in which the seat 5 moved from the reference position (S) in the front-rear or left-right direction is returned to the reference position (S), and movably supports the backrest 6 in the left-right direction together with a movement of the seat 5 in the left-right direction.

A patient support apparatus includes a frame, a stationary member mounted relative to the frame, a movable member having a pivot member rotatably mounting the movable member about the stationary member, and a fastener securing the pivot member to the stationary member. The patient support apparatus also includes a joint between the pivot member and the stationary member, which is configured to apply a tension force on the fastener.

The disclosure belongs to the technical field of support structures, and in particular relates to a detachable five-star base. In the disclosure, the clamping plate, the arc-shaped groove plate and the support block are arranged on the center block, and the connecting groove, the arc-shaped connecting plate and the jacking block are arranged on the detachable foot to achieve the effective disassembly and assembly of the five-star foot. The disclosure has a reasonable and effective detachable structure of the five-star foot, the detachable feet are easy to be engaged and positioned before disassembly and assembly, the resistance is moderate, the operation is convenient, the support strength after installation is large. The friction and fixing effect between the detachable feet and the center block is good, the detachable feet are not easy to rotate and fall apart, and the number of detachable feet can be adjustable.

A system may include a seat assembly. The seat assembly may include a seat base, a seat portion mounted to the seat base, and an armrest assembly configured to be in an up position or a down position. The armrest assembly may include a handle operable by a user to lock or unlock at least one functionality of at least one adjustable seat assembly feature. Operation of the handle may be configured at least to: unlock the at least one functionality of at least one adjustable seat assembly feature while locking the armrest assembly from moving between the up position and the down position.

A seating unit for use in a space including a supporting floor surface, the seating unit comprising a seat structure comprising a mounting bracket having a female connector, a tablet assembly comprising a support arm having a mounting collar on an end and a base having a lower end to be supported by the floor surface and including a base mounting assembly and wherein the base mounting assembly comprises a cup attached to the base, a base tube having a first end inserted into the cup and a second end extending through the mounting collar and mateably engaging the female connector.
