Modular seat assembly having a female connector that is positioned and configured to releasably connect to a corresponding male stud connector on an adjacent seat module. Each female connector includes a plate comprising a raised portion defining an upper opening leading to a downwardly angled channel extending at about 20 degrees to about 70 degrees from a vertical axis into a horizontal portion, such that each male stud connector is slidably and releasably connectable to each corresponding female connector, and such that the channel and the horizontal portion have a width that is narrower than a head of the male stud connector, but wider than a neck of the male stud connector; and wherein said male stud connector is configured to be guided downward by said channel and then loosely contained within said horizontal portion.

Discussed herein are modular frame assemblies, and methods of forming modular frame assemblies. A modular frame assembly includes a first and second lateral frame member each comprising an elongated transverse portion including a flange portion, the transverse portion including an upper edge, a first and second side frame member each comprising a first end, a second end, and a cross panel extending therebetween, the first and second end including one or more receiving members to receive the flange portions of the first and second lateral frame members, and a top planar member having an upper surface and lower surface, the lower surface including one or a plurality of chambers to receive the upper edge of the transverse portion of the first and second lateral frame members.

A kit of parts, shippable to an end user in boxes for assembly of the parts by the end user into seating furniture, includes seat bases and seat backs removably attachable to the seat bases; a first armrest with a channel connector having a first channel for slidably receiving a first slide member of a first seat base for securing the first armrest and the first seat base together; and a second armrest with at least a second slide member for slidable insertion into a second channel of another channel connector of a second seat base for securing the second armrest and the second seat base together. Each channel connector secured to the first seat base has a third channel for receiving a third slide member of a slide connector of any other seat base for securing together said other seat base and the first seat base.

A novel form of furniture where various types of seating arrangements which can be provided with interchangeable hexagon shaped cushions to achieve swivel chair, sofa and stool configuration. The assembly allows easy to assemble and disassemble structure where multiple configurations can be achieved with slide adjustments. The assembly allows enhanced air circulation, easy removal and placement of cushions, easy storage, interchangeable cushions and allows user to replace or service individual cushions without the need to replace the entire furniture piece. The cushions are also interchangeable for aesthetic choices where user can create different color combinations based on their aesthetic preference. Cushion units can be replaced to change its visual appearance without the need to replace the entire chair.

An audio-enhanced furniture system comprises: a furniture assembly; an upholstery fabric at least partially covering the furniture assembly; and a speaker system positioned within the furniture assembly, the speaker system including a speaker covered by the upholstery fabric. The speaker is configured to be tuned to compensate for sound being emitted from the speaker through the upholstery fabric. A method of tuning a speaker to compensate for sound being emitted through upholstery fabric comprises: selecting a baseline equalization, configuring the speaker to emit sound at an actual equalization approximate to the baseline equalization; covering the speaker with an upholstery fabric; measuring a resultant equalization as the speaker emits sound through the upholstery fabric; calculating a differential equalization; and reconfiguring the audio system to emit sound from the speaker through the upholstery fabric according to the baseline equalization by adjusting the actual equalization by the differential equalization.

A modular seating kit for producing a modular seating apparatus, comprising one or more rectangular base platforms, at least one connecting bracket, one or more vertical supporting structures, one or more secondary vertical supporting structures, a plurality of fasteners, and one or more support legs, each base platform has a plurality of attachment points adapted to receive the support legs and fasteners, the vertical supporting structures and the secondary vertical supporting structures are adapted to be attached to one of the base platforms to function as backrests or armrests, and two or more of the base platforms are adapted to be linked together using the connecting brackets to provide the modular seating apparatus with expandable seating capacity.

A flat plate based system for securing legs to a chair is provided wherein a chair support has two catches and two leg pieces each have a tab at one end, the tab configured to interact with one of the two catches, each leg piece including an opening through which a tension member passes. Anchor pieces are configured to secure to the tension member such that the tension member pulls the anchor pieces together. The leg pieces each have an edge such that the edges face each other and the tabs interact with the catches and the tension member is positioned in the opening and the anchor pieces and tension member pull the edges together to hold the tabs against the two catches.

The invention relates to event furniture comprising at least one table and/or at least one chair as an event furniture component (100, 200, 250, 300, 350), wherein at least one table (11, 250), a table part (120, 300, 350) of the at least one table (11), the at least one chair (110, 200), and/or a combination of the above-mentioned event furniture components have means for carrying out an individual machine-controlled movement.

A furniture system implementing an internal frame in each panel pieces where the panel pieces can be easily and securely coupled together using toggle latches. Further, the toggle latches can have a safely lock to minimize and prevent accidental disassembling.

A seating furniture with a base member, an armrest member and first and second mounting devices that fix the armrest member to the base member in a horizontal direction. The first mounting device is slidable in parallel to an inner surface of the armrest member between an upper position and a lower position. When positioned in the upper position, an angled part of the first mounting device is rotatable relative to the armrest member between a locking position and a release position. In the locking position a first flange portion of the first mounting device is positioned such that an upper edge of the base member may be received into a gap between the first flange portion and the inner surface of the armrest member, whereas in the release position the first flange portion is positioned to release the upper edge of the base member from the gap.
