A cushion includes a cushion core, adopting blasted sponge, and the cushion core comprising a main bearing area and an auxiliary bearing area; an outer cover layer, wrapping an outer layer of the cushion core, and the outer cover layer adopting a fiber material which is of a reticular structure; and a reinforcing skeleton comprising a plurality of bone bridges, and each bone bridge comprising an arch base and an arch bridge. For each bone bridge, the arch base is located at two side-by-side corners of one side of the cushion core, and is close to one side of the main bearing area; one end of the arch bridge is connected to the arch base, and the other end of the arch bridge extends to a diagonal opposite corner of the other side of the cushion core, and is close to one side of the auxiliary bearing area.

The present invention relates to a spine orienting device for integration into a variety of types of seats, for example, automotive seats or office type seating, in order to properly position the sacrum of the individual using the seat, which in turn will properly pivot the pelvis to assist in maintaining the spine in equilibrium.

A method for manufacturing a seat shell for a chair includes three method steps (a) to (c). According to a first step (a), a carrier made of a plastic material is provided, on the front side of which a plastic film is arranged. According to a second step (b), the carrier with the plastic film is deep drawn by a deep drawing tool such that the front side of the carrier with the plastic film has a predefined three-dimensional surface contour after the deep drawing. According to a third step (c), a rear side of the carrier is encapsulated by injection molding with the plastic material.

A multi-positional chair assembly comprises a frame portion defined by a pair of sinuously-shaped bars. The frame portion includes a back support section, a middle section, and a buttocks support section. The sections are joined at multiple junctions defined by a bowed shape. A resilient panel traverses the pair of sinuously-shaped bars, providing a supportive surface for a user. The panel may include a resilient metal sheet, apertures, or parallel strips of material. The frame portion can be positioned in multiple positions to provide a sitting surface, including a lounge chair position and a higher elevated stool position. The chair assembly reconfigures between the lounge chair position and the stool position through rotation. Rotating the buttocks support section and the legs to engage the ground surface achieves the lounge chair position. And rotating the back support section and the legs to engage the ground surface achieves the stool position.

A portable seat cushion providing enhanced seating comfort while also enabling the use of self-contained heat sources is disclosed which provides greater comfort to users during cold weather outdoor entertainment events. The cushion includes especially configured recessed pockets and carriers for containing and strategically placing heat generators such as lighter fluid fueled and electric hand warmers in close contact with a user's legs while sitting. Sufficient ventilation is provided to enable combustion type hand warmers to access sufficient oxygen and vent exhaust.

A sofa with an upholstered arm panel has an arm frame with a layered composition comprising an underlayment material layer, a fiber material layer positioned on top of and contacting the underlayment material layer, and a covering upholstery material layer positioned on top of and contacting the fiber material layer. The underlayment material layer is comprised a planar sheet of Ethylene-vinyl acetate closed cell foam. The EVA foam extends forwardly on the arm frame to create a forward extending lip. The use of EVA foam reduces the number of structural and cushioning materials, fasteners, and labor currently required in arm panel construction.
