A folding chair includes U-shaped first to fourth supporting frame members, U-shaped first to third legs, inverted U-shaped first and second armrests, first to fourth seat receivers, first to fourth front supports, first to fourth rear supports, first to fourth front connecting members, first to fourth rear connecting members, first to third backrest supports, a locking element, a seat and a backrest. All these members can be smoothly pivotally turned about corresponding couplers or unions, enabling the folding chair to be collapsed into a slim-folded state to occupy a very small space and be easily portable, or be fully extended from the collapsed state to provide improved stability and load capacity in use.

A collapsible sheltered bench operable to have a first collapsed configuration and a second erect configuration. The sheltered bench includes a base member comprising a bench surface for sitting. The sheltered bench further includes a canopy member having first and second support members and a cover. In the erect configuration the first and second support members extend from a first side of the sitting surface to a second substantially opposed side of the sitting surface along opposite sides of the longitudinal axis of the sitting surface. The first and second support members support the cover such that the cover extends over at least a portion of the sitting surface.

An auxiliary armrest is designed to be supported between two adjacent armrests of a seat in a seat row. The auxiliary armrest comprises an elongated body having two sides, and connectors on said two sides, wherein the connectors are configured to be reversibly connected to the adjacent armrests while the elongated body is between them.

A seating assembly for athletes includes seats having a back and seat portion, a base, an adjustable element, a user interface device, and a controller. The back portion includes a back heating member that provides heat to a user's torso. The seat portion includes a lower limb heating member that provides heat to the user's lower limbs. The base supports each seat. The adjustable element is coupled to the base and one of the seats and adjusts height of the seat. The user interface device receives an input regarding a desired temperature of the back heating member and the lower limb heating member. The controller receives the input and adjusts an operation of the back heating member and the lower limb heating member to achieve the desired temperature. The user interface device receives a second input to adjust the a height of the seat relative to the floor surface.

A beam seating assembly has a frame supporting a seating surface. A beam secures to a first support and extends in a longitudinal direction. A channel is located the beam free of the first support. The frame has a lower portion with a connector that is insertable into the channel transverse to the longitudinal direction and the connector, once inserted into the channel, is retained from removal out of the channel in a direction. The connector is insertable into a first portion of the channel and a second portion of the connector rotatable into a second portion of the channel and then slidable away from the first portion such that the first and second portions of the connector are retained within the channel but are slidable in the longitudinal direction until the connector is fixedly secured to the beam. The frame is made in certain aspects from a flat plate.

A portable lumbar support and ergonomic chair having a lumbar support. The lumbar support has a seat hingedly coupled to a seat back having a teardrop-shaped lumbar support seat back cushion. A rigid back support portion may be rotated forward about hinges to collapse substantially parallel to the seat frame and backward to open to a variety of angles with respect to the seat frame. The seat back freely pivots around an upper lateral axis, and the rigid back support portion is linearly adjustable to space the seat back toward and away from the hinges to enable raising or lowering the upper lateral axis and thus the seat back with respect to the lower lateral axis. This provides multiple ways of changing which part of the teardrop-shaped lumbar support curve hits your lumbar curve for proper support. Variable lumbar lordotic support is thus provided.

An expandable seating furniture comprising a center section for providing a first seating position, the center section providing center chair legs and at least one lateral section, concealable into the center section, each of the at least one lateral section being laterally expandable for providing one or more additional seating positions. The center section conceals one or more lateral chair legs, and may also conceal back support and/or armrest, for each of the at least one lateral section when the expandable seating furniture is unexpanded. The lateral section(s) may be concealable into the center section as interleaved sliding sections (e.g., along a seating plane and/or vertically).

A drink holder assembly for attaching cup holders to outdoor chairs includes a block that is positionable between a respective arm rest on a pair of outdoor chairs. A strap is coupled to the block for wrapping around the respective arm rest on each of the outdoor chairs to removably couple the block between the outdoor chairs. A panel is positioned on the block and a pair of spacers is each positioned on top of the panel. A cup holder is positioned on each of the spacers such that the cup holder is spaced from the panel. The cup holder has a pair of cup holes therein and each of the cup holes insertably receives a cup having the cup resting upon the panel.

The disclosed technology can include a dual chair folding system having rigid support poles joined by pins to form a collapsible chair support frame. Fabric sections can be affixed to the collapsible chair support frame to form a plurality of chairs. The dual chair folding system can also include vertical support poles and sunshade support poles that can be joined by pins to form a collapsible sunshade support frame. A continuous fabric section can be affixed to the collapsible sunshade support frame to form a sunshade positioned above the collapsible chair support frame. Attachment brackets can be attached to the collapsible chair support frame to receive the sunshade support frame such that the collapsible sunshade support frame can be removeably attached to the collapsible chair support frame. Furthermore, adjustable brackets affixed to the vertical support poles and the sunshade support poles can adjust the sunshade between a plurality of angles.

A seating unit (102, 104) is disclosed as including a seat (106, 110) with a seat back (106a, 110a) and a seat pan (106c, 110c) which are movable relative to each other to convert the seat (106, 110) between a sittable configuration and an un-sittable configuration, and a seat (108) with a seat back (108a) and a seat pan (108c), the angle subtended by the seat back (106a, 110a) and the seat pan (106c, 110c) when the seat (106, 110) is in the sittable configuration being larger than an angle subtended by the seat back (106a, 110a) and the seat pan (106c, 110c) when the seat (106, 110) is in the un-sittable configuration, the seat back (106a, 110a) of the seat (106, 110) and the seat back (108a) of the seat (108) being connected with each other by a web (120, 122).
