Disclosed is a fastening structure for a seating foam, comprising a foam and a reinforcement fabric, and characterized in that the fastening structure is directly provided at a reinforcement fabric at a location corresponding to a fastening position, and is connected to the reinforcement fabric. The fastening structure of the present invention simultaneously meets two functional requirements of a foam, namely reinforcement of a side B of the foam and fastening of an exterior side A of the foam. The novel fastening structure of the present invention saves space, is thin and light, enhances the strength of the foam against a pull-out force, and optimizes a foam production process.

Rocker style chairs and rocker style chairs with pivoting seats are provided along with modular components for use within rocker style chairs and parts for assembling within the modular components. The related components and chair assemblies minimize manufacturing time, maximize material usage and decrease related installation time. The related rocker style chairs may provide comfort to chair occupants and minimize noise during related chair component motion.

A detachable elastic pad for furniture includes a flexible cover and a plurality of elastic modules. The elastic modules are mounted in an array on rail beams on a bottom layer. Each elastic module includes a conical spring and a spring bracket for receiving and holding the conical spring. The detachable elastic pad can be disassembled and reassembled, to replace components.
