The invention relates to a seat, such as a chair or stool, which comprises a frame including at least one leg, an undercarriage which is configured to receive the leg, and a seat pan. The seat pan is rotatably mounted to the undercarriage, wherein the seat pan is rotatable about an axis of rotation relative to the undercarriage. The undercarriage also includes a recess and a resilient component in the recess, while the seat pan includes a stop located on a bottom surface of the seat pan. On rotation of the seat pan relative to the undercarriage, such as may occur when the person seated leans forward or back, the resilient component is compressed between the undercarriage and the stop. In one embodiment, an axle passes through the axis of rotation and connects the legs, and potentially backrest if present, to the undercarriage.

A chair has a base and a support articulated thereon. The support is coupled to a seat and supports the seat. The seat is connected to the support rotatably or pivotably around a rotation axis between a sitting position and a raised position, and the support has at least one receiving region for aligned abutment of a juxtaposed chair of identical design. Provision is made in this context that in the raised position, the seat is pivoted out of the receiving region of the support and exposes the receiving region. The result is to create a chair that, for storage, can be juxtaposed in space-saving fashion with chairs of identical design.

The present disclosure is directed to a one-piece, injection-molded stackable rocking chair. More specifically, it is directed to the configuration of the rockers that join the rocking chair's front and rear legs. The rockers' interiors contain a plurality of closely-spaced thin-wall ribs configured so that the rocker's interior structure provides the rigidity and structural integrity necessary to pass the government and industry strength tests. The thin-wall ribs may be, for example, configured in a zigzag manner, forming acute angles with respect to the rockers' sidewalls to form triangular-shaped and/or parallelogram-shaped cells. The rockers' top surface may be open so that the thin-wall ribs and cells are visible from above and the rockers' bottom surfaces are closed to spread the weight of an occupied rocking chair over an area large enough to not damage the floor upon which the rocking chair sits. Alternatively, to provide a different aesthetic, the top may be closed and the bottom open. Two such rockers are integrally injection-molded with a rocking chair body to form a one-piece, injection-molded, stackable rocking chair, preferably in resin and preferably in a two-part mold.

A folding chair may include a frame that is configured to transition the folding chair between use and storage positions. A seat base may be pivotally coupled thereto at a first particular length from a front end and a receiving portion may be disposed in an upper surface. The receiving portion may include left and right lateral edges, front and rear longitudinal edges, and a depth. The padding material may be disposed in the receiving portion and may have a lateral dimension related to a distance between the front and the rear longitudinal edges, a longitudinal dimension related to a distance between the front and the rear longitudinal edges, and a thickness related to the depth. The padding layer may cover a majority of a top surface of the padding material and of the upper surface. The cover may retain the padding material and the padding layer relative to the seat base.

An outdoor chaise lounge including a lock-box integrated therein. The chaise lounge may have a photovoltaic device mounted to a portion of a seat member where a user rests his or her head, and the lock-box may be positioned below a foot portion of the seat member. The foot portion of the seat member may be configured to be rotated upwards to enable a user to access the lock-box. In an embodiment, electronic devices may be integrated into a member of the chaise lounge, such as a leg member, frame member, or armrest, and be configured to enable a user to order food, beverages, attendants, or perform other communications with a billing or other system of a venue (e.g., hotel, cruise ship, etc.) via a wireless communication.

Various embodiments of the present invention are directed to a convertible children's high chair. According to various embodiments, the convertible high chair generally comprises a first child seat supported above a floor by a high chair frame, and a second child seat configured for being removably coupled to first child seat. The second child seat is configured such that, when detached from the high chair's first child seat, it can be used apart from the high chair as a booster seat (e.g., secured to the seating surface of a standard chair or another support surface). In certain embodiments, the second child seat includes a base surface configured to stably support the second child seat on a separate support surface (e.g., without the need to be attached to or mounted on a separate base or support member).
