A folding chair includes U-shaped first to fourth supporting frame members, U-shaped first to third legs, inverted U-shaped first and second armrests, first to fourth seat receivers, first to fourth front supports, first to fourth rear supports, first to fourth front connecting members, first to fourth rear connecting members, first to third backrest supports, a locking element, a seat and a backrest. All these members can be smoothly pivotally turned about corresponding couplers or unions, enabling the folding chair to be collapsed into a slim-folded state to occupy a very small space and be easily portable, or be fully extended from the collapsed state to provide improved stability and load capacity in use.

A system and method to house and/or charge electric vehicles, such as scooters, by resolving their integration into public spaces or establishments through a solution that preserves them from inclement weather as well as vandalism or robbery, while offering a bank that can be used, at the same time, to sit down. This avoids the serious problems that are generated when these vehicles occupy the sidewalks and other spaces and solves charging problems especially in fleet services. The bank can present individualized cabins with space for security elements such as vests or helmets, as well as media for remote management. Additionally, versions that incorporate a space for vending may be implemented.

A collapsible sheltered bench operable to have a first collapsed configuration and a second erect configuration. The sheltered bench includes a base member comprising a bench surface for sitting. The sheltered bench further includes a canopy member having first and second support members and a cover. In the erect configuration the first and second support members extend from a first side of the sitting surface to a second substantially opposed side of the sitting surface along opposite sides of the longitudinal axis of the sitting surface. The first and second support members support the cover such that the cover extends over at least a portion of the sitting surface.

Disclosed is a rocking cart table, which is moved forward/backward and in a seesaw manner by passenger's motion and thus can provide enjoyment following play through a rock to the passenger. The cart table comprises: a cart body installed on a rail and moved forward and backward by passenger's motion; a seesaw movement member moved in a seesaw manner by the passenger's motion; a table member; and a light-blocking member.

An auxiliary armrest is designed to be supported between two adjacent armrests of a seat in a seat row. The auxiliary armrest comprises an elongated body having two sides, and connectors on said two sides, wherein the connectors are configured to be reversibly connected to the adjacent armrests while the elongated body is between them.

A self-locking parcel delivery apparatus and method includes a tamper-resistant compartment beneath a lid of a porch bench seat and insulated for protecting delivered parcels. The apparatus includes a lid that is held open magnetically until proactively released to close and lock (such as by a delivery person) or by a remote user via a primary software application running on a mobile communications device. The apparatus may be operated in conjunction or cooperation with a supplemental software application associated with a video motion detection system so that a remote user can authenticate a supposed delivery person and then, using another software app, activate a remote delivery container to be made ready to receive a delivered parcel.

A seating assembly for athletes includes seats having a back and seat portion, a base, an adjustable element, a user interface device, and a controller. The back portion includes a back heating member that provides heat to a user's torso. The seat portion includes a lower limb heating member that provides heat to the user's lower limbs. The base supports each seat. The adjustable element is coupled to the base and one of the seats and adjusts height of the seat. The user interface device receives an input regarding a desired temperature of the back heating member and the lower limb heating member. The controller receives the input and adjusts an operation of the back heating member and the lower limb heating member to achieve the desired temperature. The user interface device receives a second input to adjust the a height of the seat relative to the floor surface.

This outdoor structure, which is installed outdoors, such as a bench, a fence, or a wooden path, includes a plurality of metal support posts each including one or more rectangular through holes and arrayed at least in one row in a first direction; and a wooden slat laid across the through holes of the plurality of support posts, in which a cross section of each of the through holes in the first direction includes tapered portions which are narrow at an approximately center portion and become wider toward outside.
