A collapsible and portable seating apparatus may include a seating assembly and a media mast with at least one image generation device. The seating assembly may be collapsible via at least one linkage assembly or pivot assembly, and portable via at least one wheel assembly. The media mast may be couplable to the seat assembly and removable to be set on a ground surface. The media mast may be portable when coupled to the seating assembly and/or separately portable in a hand-truck configuration when removed from the seating assembly. The media mast and/or the seating assembly may include components to provide increased stability and resistance against external and internal forces, where the components are deployed when the media mast is on the ground surface or the seating assembly is unfolded. A canopy may be couplable to the seating assembly.

A furniture system with reclining assembly is comprised of: (a) a modular furniture assembly and a reclining assembly. The recliner base of the recliner assembly remains within substantially the same footprint specifications as the modular furniture assembly in the non-reclined position. A passageway in the reclining assembly allows coupling to a slit in the modular furniture assembly. A recliner base mounted on a support surface comprises a housing and a footrest assembly that moves with respect to the housing. The footrest assembly selectively extends outwardly in a manner that the reclining mechanism is generally not visible from the sides or from the front of the footrest assembly.

A foldable bench having a seat and front support members that may be rotated between a folded position and an unfolded position includes a backrest, first and second front support members, a seat, and a latch. The front support members are mounted to the font of the backrest and rotate laterally between a folded and unfolded position. The seat is mounted to the front of the backrest and rotates vertically between a folded and unfolded position. In the folded position, the seat is sandwiched between the backrest and the front support members. In the unfolded position, the seat prevents the front support members from rotating inwards to the folded position. The seat is supported in an unfolded position by seat supports located on each of the front support members, which are received by receivers in the seat. A latch located on one of the arms selectively engages an opening in the seat to secure the seat in the unfolded position.

A bench and frame component for holding individual planks to be used in a sitting bench where fastening an individual plank to the frame can be avoided. The frame is configured to allow a plank to be received in a holding pocket defined by an upper pocket piece and a lower pocket piece. The upper pocket piece may be connected to and removed from the lower pocket piece. The lower pocket piece may include a series of pocket segments and when connected with the upper pocket piece form a series of two-piece holding pockets for receiving a plurality of planks. The frame component is combined with other components and planks to form a bench. The bench may comprise individual bench sections that connect with similar modular sections to form a sectional bench.

Embodiments of the present invention provide an improved pivot articulation for a kinematic seat. Certain embodiments provide an elastic pivot that is formed as flexion weaves that connect upper and lower portions of a seat back. The flexion weaves may be inner and outer legs that are curved in configuration or that have bent dimensions.

Modular components which enable the formation of customized outdoor bench assemblies may include any combination of straight seat components, angled seat components and/or angled end seat components, backrest components, leg components, planter components, and coffee/side table components. These modular components can be assembled together in any of a variety of different manners to form an almost limitless number of different seating solutions.
