A reclining chair assembly includes a reclining chair that has a backrest portion and a chair portion for having a user sit therein. A pair of footrests is each disposed on the chair portion of the reclining chair and each of the footrests is positionable in a lowered position or a raised position to raise the respective user's leg. Moreover, the pair of footrests is independently positionable in the raised position to facilitate one of the user's legs to be lifted while the other of the user's legs is not lifted. A pair of lifting units is each in mechanical communication with a respective one of the pair of footrests. Each of the lifting units independently urges the respective footrest into the raised position or the lowered position.

Disclosed herein is a collapsible unit for facilitating multiuse of the collapsible unit, in accordance with some embodiments. Accordingly, the collapsible unit may be deployable on at least one surface. Further, the collapsible unit may include a frame. Further, the frame may include a plurality of primary members disposed vertically in relation to the at least one surface. Further, the frame may include at least one secondary member coupled with the plurality of primary members. Further, the collapsible unit may include a seat member disposed in the frame. Further, the seat member may include a seat panel disposed in the enclosure. Further, the collapsible unit may include at least one wheel coupled to the frame. Further, the at least one wheel may be configured for moving the collapsible unit on the at least one surface.

A chair preferably configured for conversion between a preferred storage configuration and at least one preferred use configuration. When in one of the use configurations, the chair may have a recliner mechanism which allows the angle of the back support assembly relative to the seat frame to be progressively changed such that the back support assembly may be positioned at a reclined angular position. When in the preferred storage configuration, the back support assembly may be positioned at least partially within the seat frame to decrease the area of the footprint of the chair to facilitate storage of the chair.

A footrest for a chair or an armchair, includes a support platform for the feet of a user of said chair. Said platform is configured to be rotatably fastened to a leg of the chair or armchair, enabling the rotational movement of said platform in a horizontal plane. The platform includes at least one wheel which serves as a support on the ground, preventing the feet from being loaded on the cantilevered platform. In this manner, the footrest moves with the chair, always being available for the user, regardless of whether the chair moves, being able to be retracted underneath the legs of said chair when the platform is not being used by the user.

An adjustable chair frame with a back and seating surfaces that flex to conform to the shape, weight and movement of an occupant is disclosed. The chair form and proportions provide for a recumbent position that disperses the weight of the occupant more evenly, thereby reducing external and internal physiological point loading. The form also provides ergonomic articulation to minimize internal physiological stresses such as neck/back vertebral compression. Eccentric connections driven by a motor assembly allow positioning adjustment of the components of the chair. Additionally, an air pump assembly may be included to automatically adjust one or more air bladders provided on the interior of the chair frame.

A chair includes a frame unit including a seat frame, a leg rest that is pivotally mounted to the seat frame, and a rest adjusting mechanism that is connected between the leg rest and the seat frame. The rest adjusting mechanism is convertible between an unlocked state, where the leg rest is permitted to pivot relative to the seat frame, and a locked state, where the leg rest is not permitted to pivot relative to the seat frame.

A footrest device for supporting feet apart from a cylinder includes a central hub, an outer ring spaced apart from the central hub, and spars, each extending radially from a proximal end, on the first jaw of the hub, to a distal end on the ring. The hub is a clamp with an open condition and a closed condition for clamping onto the cylinder, and it includes first and second jaws pivoted to each other to open and close the hub about a space configured to receive the cylinder. A latch assembly opens and closes the first and second jaws with respect to each other.

A chair includes a seat (2) and also includes a pair of thigh support elements (17) pivotal n a generally downwardly direction about front pivot axes (20) from a first state forming with a central seat element (15) a substantially common plane, to a second downwardly extending state. The elements (17) are also pivotal about second pivot axes in a generally rearwardly direction for urging the user's thighs away from each other for stretching the adductor muscles. Foot support members (49) extend transversely and sidewardly on respective opposite sides of the chair (1) from a support element (46) for supporting the foot during a stretching exercise with the corresponding thigh of the subject extending downwardly from the seat (14) and the lower leg extending from the knee in a upwardly inclined direction to the foot support member (49) for stretching the quadriceps and the hip flexor muscles of the subject.

A modular furniture seat assembly comprises a seating portion having a front end, a rear end, a pair of opposing side edges, and a seating connector component on each of the opposing side edges. A back portion is provided and has a lower end, an upper end, and a pair of opposing side edges. The lower end of the back portion connects to the rear end of the seating portion. A pair of lateral support arm assemblies is provided, each having an inner surface and an outer surface, with each of the pair of lateral support arm assemblies having a first arm connector component which is releasably connectable to the seating connector component. The lateral support arm assemblies comprise an armrest portion and a leg portion, with the leg portion supporting the modular furniture seating item when it is an assembled condition.

A chair preferably configured for conversion between a preferred storage configuration and at least one preferred use configuration. When in one of the use configurations, the chair may have a recliner mechanism which allows the angle of the back support assembly relative to the seat frame to be progressively changed such that the back support assembly may be positioned at a reclined angular position. When in the preferred storage configuration, the back support assembly may be positioned at least partially within the seat frame to decrease the area of the footprint of the chair to facilitate storage of the chair.
