A chair is provided with a seat support frame which may be comprised of at least two tubes spaced apart by a polymer connector. The seat support frame supports a foam cushion and the frame may be embedded in the foam and may include flexible supports across the support frame also embedded in the foam. A rigid panel has a cavity and the rigid panel is arranged adjacent an outer surface of said foam cushion with at least part of said foam cushion positioned within the cavity, wherein said rigid panel is affixed to said support frame and an inner surface of said rigid panel faces the outer surface of said foam cushion.

The present disclosure relates to a chair back assembly with an outer frame and an inner frame, wherein the outer frame is manufactured of different material than the inner frame to allow for a variety in support throughout the chair back assembly, resulting in localized support throughout the back of the chair. The availability of localized support results in an improvement in comfort and may also improve production in embodiments utilizing a foam covering. Specifically, the inner frame of the chair back assembly may include at least one vertical member and at least one horizontal member to provide additional support to the user.

A body support assembly includes a seat assembly and backrest assembly supported by a tilt control assembly. Methods of using and assembling the body support assembly are provided.

A chair assembly includes an arm assembly that includes an armrest supported by a vertically adjustable support assembly and an arm base, where the arm base extends at an acute angle with respect to a longitudinal centerline of the chair assembly, an upholstery arrangement including a ring member attached to a cover, where the ring member includes a plurality of reliefs having a width that reduces as the ring member is wrapped about a shell member of the chair assembly, and a control arrangement having a biasing member that moves through an arcuate path as the biasing member is adjusted between varying bias settings.

A chair comprises a seat and a backrest carried between opposite frame sides each with a backrest support, a front leg and a rear leg. The seat comprises an upholstered seat cushion disposed on the seat. The upholstered seat cushion comprising a cushion layer carried by a backing and covered by a layer of upholstery. The layer of upholstery extends over the cushion layer and the backing, and wraps around a perimeter of the backing. A snap connection attaches the backing of the upholstered seat cushion to the seat. The snap connection comprises resilient hooks extending from backing of the seat cushion and into holes in the seat.

An internally supported cushion for a seating unit is provided. The internally supported cushion includes an internal structure that provides rigidity when used adjacent a back upright or a side upright of a seating unit. The internal structure generally includes a rigid core element that is sandwiched between foam layers. The rigid core element is approximately upright and extends in the lengthwise and widthwise directions of the internally supported cushion. A batting layer is positioned immediately beneath an upholstery covering to prevent the covering from contacting the internal foam layers, which encapsulate the rigid core element.
