An automated task chair with foot support that assists the user in sitting, working and resting in more optimal positions that promote both task effectiveness and user comfort.

A seating device includes a seat 4, a back frame 3 and a head frame 1 carried by a base 5. The back frame 3 is rotatably suspended in the base 5 at a first pivot point E, and the head frame 1 is hinged to an upper end of the back frame at a third pivot point A. The seating device further includes a motion control lever 7 rotatably attached to the base 5 in a fourth pivot point D. A motion resisting element resists the motion of the motion control lever 7 in relation to the base 5. A pulling element 2 extend from a fifth pivot point F at a first end of the motion control lever 7 to a sixth pivot point B on the head frame. The back frame is arranged to engage the motion control lever 7. The head frame will automatically and seamlessly find the correct position in relation to the angle of the back frame 3 and the motion of the head frame will change direction from a forward motion to a backward motion when the back frame 3 is moved from an upright position, past a reclined position and to a further reclined sleeping position.

A seat includes a chassis and a working attachment. The chassis has a seating surface, a backrest, and an armrest. The working attachment is fixedly secured to the chassis and includes a worksurface. The worksurface has a first position in which the worksurface is positioned at a height above a top surface of the armrest on a first side of the armrest such that the worksurface is positioned over the seating surface. The worksurface has a second position in which the worksurface is positioned at a height below the top surface of the armrest on a second side of the armrest opposite of the first side.

The present invention relates to a collapsible chair. The chair includes a backrest for engaging with a sitter's back. A seat extends from the backrest and is where the sitter can sit. A retractable leg support may extend from the seat and can be extended to support the sitter's legs with feet off the ground. Advantageously, the sitter's feet may be safely off the ground away from ants and sand.
