A chair adapted for no-tool assembly that includes a lower chair frame supported by an upper chair frame. A first, e.g., front, interface prevents relative movement between the chair frames, e.g., via orifice engaging a protrusion of, e.g., a hook member, or engagement of mating caps of the upper and lower chair frames with protrusions and orifices. A second, e.g., second interface includes a latch receiver and latch. In use, the upper chair frame is placed on the lower chair frame. The first interface is engaged for preventing relative movement between the upper and lower chair frames and the second interface between the lower chair frame and the upper chair frame is also engaged.

A unique and novel ready to assembly chair base is broken down into several component parts so that it can be packed in a smaller volume of space, and then easily assembled by the consumer. The chair base is formed in a manner that the base comes apart into at least two components. A first removable leg component and a second hub component consists of a central support with a tapered hole therein, a plurality of fixed legs and a truncated leg receiver configured and arranged receive and retain the removable leg component when the chair is assembled.

A modular seat and method of assembling the same are provided. The modular seat includes a first seating component having one or more seating component attachment apertures. The modular seat also includes a first arm component having a first arm component shelf support configured to be received by one of the seating component attachment apertures. The modular seat may include one or more other components, such as attachment members, additional seating components, back support components, and/or additional arm components. A corresponding method of assembling a modular seat is also provided.

A modular furniture assembly including a wedge shaped base for use with other modular furniture system rectangular bases and transverse members, all of which components adhere to an (x)=(y)+(z) relationship, wherein (x) is the length of the back of the wedge shaped base, the length of the transverse member, and the length of the rectangular base. (y) is both the length of the angled side(s) of the wedge shaped base, and the width of the rectangular base. (z) is the width (i.e., thickness) of the transverse member. The angled sides of the wedge shaped base can be at or about 45° relative to one another. The rectangular bases and wedge shaped bases are of the same height, and all can be coupled together in a wide variety of modular furniture configurations.

The present disclosure provides a packable assembly comprising an apparatus. The apparatus may comprise a main body comprising one or more openings or grooves; one or more support members that are insertable into the one or more openings or grooves of the main body; one or more additional support members positioned external to or remote from the one or more openings or grooves of the main body; and one or more attachment mechanisms configured to releasably couple the one or more support members to the one or more additional support members to provide structural support for the main body.

A kit for assembling a piece of seating furniture includes a back assembly including a rear beam having a pair of opposing distal ends designed to be received by a pair of side assemblies. The back assembly includes a plurality of support beams defining a passage. The kit includes a front assembly including a front beam having a pair of opposing distal ends designed to be received by the pair of side assemblies. The front assembly is disposed within the passage.

A gas cylinder quick release device has a cylindrical upper assembly, a cylindrical lower assembly arranged below the upper assembly on a common axis, and a handle which is mounted to move between a first position and a second position. Movement of the handle from the first position to the second position imparts axial displacement of the upper and lower assemblies away from each other along the axis, thereby breaking a press-fit engagement of a wheelbase otherwise secured on the gas cylinder.

Various systems and methods relate to an adaptive chair system having (i) a stowed mode in which the members of the chair frame are contained within a compact flexible multi-function bag (MFB), and (ii) a deployed mode in which the MFB is adapted to releasably couple to an arm of the chair to provide a multipurpose accessory chamber. In an illustrative example, the MFB may, for example, fold in on itself in an accessory mode. The MFB may provide various utilities for hikers, for example, by providing a case to receive an inflatable bladder so as to form a pillow. The MFB may receive a thermal liner adapted to maintain, for example, food or beverage temperature. Various embodiments may advantageously provide a rugged, water resistant MFB system in an ultralight form factor that serves as a multipurpose accessory (e.g., to store items), yet provides a compact, adaptive chair frame containment.

Disclosed are bendable panels for furniture, and sofa frames and sofas composed of bendable panels. A bendable panel for furniture includes a panel formed with one or more bending lines. The one or more bending lines divide the panel into a panel body and one or more panel extensions. A respective panel extension in the one or more panel extensions is bendable with respect to the panel body along a corresponding bending line in the one or more bending lines between a first angle and a second angle.
