A portable chair may include a first front leg and a second front leg connected by a front sled and a first back leg and a second back leg connected by a back sled. The first front leg and the first back leg may be pivotally connected to a sliding pivot on an armrest, where the sliding pivot moves relative to the armrest to adjust the chair from an upright position to a reclined position. The seat assembly may include a fabric member that is attached secured to a seat frame by a plurality of fabric retention members. In some examples, the portable chair may include a fabric member is releasably connected to the seat frame and back frame and also extends from a forward rail of the seat frame to a top rail of the back frame.

An enclosure may be positioned underneath a chair seat to at least partially enclose the under-seat space and may open and close in conjunction with the expanding and collapsing of the chair. In one aspect, the under-seat enclosure is usable with side-to-side folding chairs (e.g., director-style folding chairs), with or without a footrest. Among other things, the under-seat enclosure may include accessory pockets and panels. In addition, the under-seat enclosure may optionally include dividers that sub-divide an interior compartment into multiple compartments.

An armchair includes a base, a backrest pivotally connected to the base by a first rotating shaft, an armrest connected to the base and an elastic assembly fixed on the armrest. The backrest and the elastic assembly are pivotally connected by a second rotating shaft. The elastic assembly is configured to provide elastic force when the backrest swings around the first rotating shaft. The elastic assembly arranged between the backrest and the armrest permits the backrest to be able to swing relative to the base. In use, the elastic assembly controls the swing amplitude of the backrest according to the pressure exerted by the user's back on the backrest. When the user reclines backward, the elastic assembly acts as a cushion to support the backrest to slowly swing backward due to the elastic force. When the user rises, the elastic force of the elastic assembly urges the backrest to reset.

A vehicle seating assembly includes a frame with an engagement portion, a carrier, and a strap disposed between the frame and the carrier, wherein if the carrier is in an attached position relative to the frame, then application of an actuating force to the strap moves the carrier to a detached position relative to the frame.

A foldable seating accessory for a vehicle comprising a backrest assembly, a seat assembly, and a rear support. The backrest assembly is connected by a hinge joint to the seat assembly. The rear support is connected by a hinge joint to the backrest assembly. A trunk latch is connected to the seat assembly, allowing the seat assembly to secure onto the trunk of a vehicle. Other aspects are also described and claimed.

Embodiments of chair systems incorporating trekking poles include a low-back design employing fixed-length trekking poles, and a high-back design employing adjustable-length trekking poles that allow for adjusting the recline angle of the chair. The chair system generally includes a tubular frame that releasably engages a flexible seat. The tubular frame includes a front hub and a rear hub spaced one from the other by a cross bar, plus front and rear footings which stabilize the chair system on the ground or undersurface. A V-shaped upper support extending from the front hub supports and holds open the leg portion of the flexible seat, while the trekking poles are releasably engaged with and extend upwardly from the rear hub to support, and hold open and upright the back portion of the flexible seat.
