NON-SLIP CUSHION
A non-slip cushion includes a layer of a honeycomb gel for diminishing high pressure areas to reduce pressure ulcers.
CHAIR ASSEMBLY WITH UPHOLSTERY COVERING
A chair assembly includes an arm assembly that includes an armrest supported by a vertically adjustable support assembly and an arm base, where the arm base extends at an acute angle with respect to a longitudinal centerline of the chair assembly, an upholstery arrangement including a ring member attached to a cover, where the ring member includes a plurality of reliefs having a width that reduces as the ring member is wrapped about a shell member of the chair assembly, and a control arrangement having a biasing member that moves through an arcuate path as the biasing member is adjusted between varying bias settings.
Cooling support cushion and method of producing the same
A support cushion and a method of producing a support cushion are provided. The support cushion includes a base layer having a lower surface and an upper surface, and a plurality of surface coatings positioned atop the upper surface of the base layer, the plurality of surface coatings configured to allow an amount of air to flow through the base layer and the plurality of surface coatings, and the plurality of surface coatings further configured to provide a cooling effect. The method of producing a support cushion includes the steps of providing a base layer having a lower surface and an upper surface; applying a plurality of surface coatings to the upper surface of the base layer, the plurality of surface coatings configured to allow an amount of air to flow through the base layer and the plurality of surface coatings and further configured to provide a cooling effect.

Modular furniture assembly
A modular furniture assembly includes: a base member having a frame assembly, a transverse member having a frame assembly, a foot configured to contact a support surface, and a mounting platform having a plurality of apertures therethrough. The mounting platform is configured to be mounted on the base member frame assembly and the transverse member frame assembly, thereby connecting the frame assemblies. The foot is selectively mounted on the mounting platform, such that the foot is configured to contact the support surface when the modular furniture assembly is in an upright configuration. The mounting platform connects the base and transverse member frame assemblies together and also acts as a platform for receiving a variety of different types of feet.

METHOD FOR ENHANCING COMFORT OF A SEAT
A method is provided for enhancing comfort of a seat with a hip/thigh support and a back support. The method includes providing a seating pad assembly with a foam cushion made at least partly of a viscoelastic foam and having a cover formed from a dimensionally stable non-stretch material. An upper area of the seating pad assembly is attached to an upper area of the seat back. Pelvic and upper back areas of a person sitting on the seat deform the viscoelastic foam sufficiently to provide a comfortable support and to define anchors for the seating pad assembly. The non-stretch cover extends between those anchors for effectively supporting and cradling the lumbar back area of the person in the seat above and forward of the corner between the seat back and the hip/thigh support.
Waffle-board patterned B-surface for seat cushions
A seat cushion includes a cushion body defining a first body surface and a second body surface opposite the first body surface, wherein the first body surface is configured to face the seat occupant, and the second body surface is configured to face away from the seat occupant. The cushion body defines a plurality of holes extending into the second body surface or columns extending from the second body surface. The holes or columns are arranged on a pattern to allow the cushion body to passively conform to the seat occupant, thereby enhancing comfort.
