A seat connection mechanism and a seat employing that mechanism where the mechanism is constructed from a combination of metal, for example extruded or cast, plastic bushings and plastic covers to create a fully enclosed tilt mechanism for seats which is reliable, easy to maintain and allows for easy removal of seats for repair thereof so long as the person removing the seat knows the removal process. Thus vandalism is inhibited and a relatively economical bracket and seat is provided with substantial durability and reliability.

A boat chair configured such that it may be converted between several storage and/or use configurations which may be detachably affixed to and removed from a boat. The boat chair may be configured such that one or more of the storage configurations may allow for the boat chair to be more easily transported and/or store. The boat chair may further be configured such that the use configurations may allow for customized position and/or use of the boat chair on a boat.

A chair including a support, a backrest with a backrest frame hingedly connected to the support, a seat bottom with a seat frame hingedly connected to the backrest and a bracket extending rearward from the seat frame, a linkage arm with a proximal end hingedly connected to the support at a fixed vertical position and a distal end hingedly connected to the bracket, and a return mechanism. Rotation of the seat bottom from a closed position to an open position causes, by way of interaction between the linkage arm and the bracket, the seat bottom to move forward from the support and the backrest to rotate about the support and recline.

A seat cushion provided for supporting a sitting person, including a seat portion having an upwardly facing surface and a downwardly facing surface; a plurality of mutually spaced inclined grooves formed in the seat portion; wherein the inclined grooves extend along at least a portion of the distance between the upwardly facing surface and the downwardly facing surface.

A chair has a base and a support articulated thereon. The support is coupled to a seat and supports the seat. The seat is connected to the support rotatably or pivotably around a rotation axis between a sitting position and a raised position, and the support has at least one receiving region for aligned abutment of a juxtaposed chair of identical design. Provision is made in this context that in the raised position, the seat is pivoted out of the receiving region of the support and exposes the receiving region. The result is to create a chair that, for storage, can be juxtaposed in space-saving fashion with chairs of identical design.
