A reconfigurable chair includes features that open up new sitting and resting positions for the user. The chair includes rotatable lateral side rests and a tilt adjustable back rest which when reconfigured, provide auxiliary resting platforms to support the body in different sitting and resting positions. The backrest may include a rotatable feature so that the backrest may be moved from an upright position to a flat position adding another level of support. A height adjustment mechanism may adjust the height of the backrest to add to the reconfigurability of the chair. Some embodiments include one or more gas pistons providing user-controlled adjustment of elements into any of an infinite number of user-controlled positions.

A furniture accessory may include an armrest body and an insertion plate moveably coupled to the armrest body and configured for mounting to a furniture item. A moveable cover plate may provide access to a hollow interior of the armrest body. The furniture accessory may include a power output assembly for receiving and providing power to a detachable electrical accessory. The furniture accessory may include a power input interface and a power supply circuit for providing power from an external power source to the power output interface.

A chair includes a back member and arm brackets. The back member is tapered toward an end that is adjacent to a seat. The arm brackets are attached under a bottom portion of the seat. Each arm bracket is adjustable to provide a seat clearance area for the seat when one or more of the arm brackets are adjusted up to approximately 90 degrees from an original upright position.

A body support assembly includes a seat assembly and backrest assembly supported by a tilt control assembly. Methods of using and assembling the body support assembly are provided.

A seating arrangement includes a seat portion, a back portion, a support member caused to move between first and second positions, and a back recline lock arrangement that includes an actuator, a lock member caused to move between a locked position when the actuator is in an engaged position where the lock member prevents the support member from moving from the first position toward the second position, and an unlocked position when the actuator is in a disengaged position, and wherein the actuator is configured to move from the disengaged position to the engaged position when the chair back is in the reclined position, and the lock member is prevented from moving from the unlocked position to the locked position until the back assembly is moved from the reclined position to the upright position.

A piece of furniture, in particular a piece of seating furniture, has a base part on which a movable furniture part is pivotably mounted via at least one pivot fitting, wherein the at least one pivot fitting is fixed to the base part by means of a first lever and is fixed to the movable furniture part by means of a second lever which is arranged pivotably with respect to the first lever, and a method for assembling a piece of furniture.

An adjustable armrest assembly provides for quick and easy height and tilt adjustments to the armrest. Generally, the armrest assembly disclosed herein includes a base, an armrest, and one or more shafts extending from the base and being pivotably coupled to the armrest. By moving the one or more shafts relative to the base, the height and/or tilt of the armrest relative to the base can be adjusted.

An armrest pad assembly includes: an armrest pad, wherein the armrest pad includes a first support section, a bendable section, and a second support section that are successively connected along a lengthwise direction of the armrest pad; wherein the armrest pad is internally provided with a first inner frame and a second inner frame, the first inner frame being fixed to the first support section, and the second inner frame being fixed to the second support section; wherein the first inner frame and the second inner frame are configured to be connected to an armrest frame of a chair, such that during upward and downward folding adjustment of the armrest frame of the chair, the first inner frame and the second inner frame drive the first support section and the second support section to be folded upward and downward about the bendable section to a predetermined position.

A cam adjustment device for lifting and lowering an armrest includes an armrest assembly and a support frame. The armrest assembly includes a connection base. The support frame has a support rod. The connection base is slidably connected to the support rod. A locking mechanism includes a cam wrench disposed on the connection base and rotatably installed on the connection base. The cam wrench is rotated such that a cam on the cam wrench presses and acts on the support rod. In a locked state, the cam wrench presses the support rod such that the connection base and the support rod are kept to be relatively fixed. In an unlocked state, the cam wrench is rotated to allow the cam to be released from the support rod, such that the connection base is lifted, lowered, and adjusted relative to the support rod.

A seating arrangement includes a seat portion, a back portion, a support member caused to move between first and second positions, and a back recline lock arrangement that includes an actuator, a lock member caused to move between a locked position when the actuator is in an engaged position where the lock member prevents the support member from moving from the first position toward the second position, and an unlocked position when the actuator is in a disengaged position, and wherein the actuator is configured to move from the disengaged position to the engaged position when the chair back is in the reclined position, and the lock member is prevented from moving from the unlocked position to the locked position until the back assembly is moved from the reclined position to the upright position.
