A chaise lounge includes an elongated, substantially planar seat frame having a front distal end and a rear distal end. An imaginary mid-plane bisects the seat frame. The chaise lounge also includes a backrest frame. The backrest frame is attached proximate to the rear distal end of the seat frame. The backrest frame may be reclineable relative to the seat frame. A swivel base supports the seat frame such that the seat frame is capable of rotating relative to a support surface about a rotation axis. The rotation axis is substantially normal to the seat frame and the support surface, and the rotation axis intersects the seat frame rearward of the imaginary mid-plane. The chair also includes at least one support leg extending downward from the seat frame at a location forward of the imaginary mid-plane for selectively contacting the support surface.

A reclining device includes a first member having a closed-bottomed cylindrical shape and having internal teeth formed on an inner circumferential surface along a circumferential direction, a pawl having external teeth capable of meshing with the internal teeth, a second member provided on an opening side of the first member and having a pawl guide for guiding movement of the pawl between a lock position and an unlock position, and a cam provided between the first member and the second member turnably in relation to the first and second members and urging the pawl to a direction of engaging the external teeth with the internal teeth according to an angle of turn. The pawl has opposite surface-roughened side walls facing and guided by guide wall surfaces of the pawl guide.

A pivotal fitting includes a bearing element on which a first pivot lever and a second pivot lever are rotatably mounted about spaced-apart axes, the first pivot lever and the second pivot lever engaging one another on the side facing one another and being rotatable together, a movable locking element being provided on the bearing element which is movable between a position locking the first and second pivot levers and a position unlocking the first and second pivot levers, in which the pivot levers are rotatable. The locking element is manually movable by an operating element from the locking position into the unlocking position. As a result, the pivotal fitting can be used to mount a seat part and a back part on a piece of furniture so that they can pivot relative to one another.

A foldable chair, including a first bracket and a second bracket that are hingedly fixed in an X-shape, and an adjusting mechanism connecting an upper portion of the first bracket and a lower portion of the second bracket. The adjusting mechanism includes a fixing member and a movable member, the fixing member including a slide groove, and the movable member including a limit member movable within the slide groove; the slide groove has a serrated first inner side wall and a smooth second inner side wall, and the limit member is snapable to the first inner side wall.

A seat tilting mechanism comprising a main body, a seat support, a backrest support and an articulation mechanism comprising a lever, a first portion of which defines along with a first arm, the seat support and the main body a first quadrilateral hinge, and a second portion of which defines alone with a second arm, the backrest support and the main body a second quadrilateral hinge. Interior corner angles and lengths of each side of the first and second quadrilateral hinges are such that a predetermined angular displacement ratio of the backrest support in relation to the seat support is provided. An extension resistance device is mounted between the main body and the first portion to provide resistance to rotation of the lever. A first end of the extension resistance device is rotationally mounted to the lever at a first mounting point, which is located between the midpoint and upper point, and is angularly displaced from a line extending between the midpoint and the upper point.

A recliner mechanism for a seat. The recliner mechanism may have a first plate and a cartridge. The first plate may define a through hole that may receive the cartridge. The cartridge may have a pawl spring slot that may receive a pawl spring that may exert a biasing force on a pawl.
