A textile deck assembly, method of fabricating, and method of installing onto a seat frame assembly. The textile deck assembly includes a platform portion and a plurality of straps coupled to a rearward edge of the platform portion. The materials of the textile deck assembly are matched so that the plurality of straps undergoes most or all of the elongation under load (e.g., when a person sits thereon), while the platform portion, even though it is flexible and compliant, is stretch resistant and undergoes little or no stretching under load. A battery of durability tests were performed on the textile deck assembly, including deflection testing, fatigue testing, and drop testing, and compared with conventional seat decks that utilize sinuous springs. The durability of the textile deck assembly to was found to outperform conventional seat decks.

The present invention relates to interlocking blocks suitable for use at the corners of skeletal frameworks in general and especially at the corners of skeletal frameworks to which rattan mats or other flexible meshes or materials may be attached. Interlocking blocks are disclosed that provide strong and stable corners in skeletal frameworks. Advantageously, rattan or other material may be easily affixed to the interlocking corner blocks while the rattan or other material is slack due to the capability of the interlocking corner blocks to be temporarily disengaged from one another. Tension may then be applied to the attached rattan or other material as the corner blocks are brought into a state of stable and interlocking engagement.

The utility model relates to a crimping structure of a surface coating fabric of an article, which is mainly applied to a soft package of soft furniture and wall decoration. The crimping structure includes a coating fabric and a coated object, wherein the coating fabric includes a fabric body and a free end, the free end is folded upwardly and then fixed with the fabric body to form a strip-shaped accommodating hole, the accommodating hole is internally provided with a fixing rod in a penetrating manner, an accommodating groove is provided in the bottom of the coated object, and the fixing rod is engaged within the accommodating groove. A product coated by the crimping structure of the utility model is attractive, natural and full in effect, and difficult to crimp.

A furniture barrier apparatus for preventing items from getting beneath furniture includes a barrier body having a first end, a second end, and a sidewall extending therebetween forming a body cavity. The barrier body is flexible such that it can be shaped to match a profile of a furniture item and a height of the sidewall is configured to fit securely between an underside of the furniture item and the floor. A filling is coupled to the barrier body within the body cavity. A pair of end loops coupled to the barrier body, the pair of end loops being coupled to the first end and the second end and is configured to selectively engage a pair of back feet of the furniture item.

An edge strip (10) is provided for a seat cover (6, 20). The edge strip (10) includes an edge strip core (10.1) that is surrounded, in particular cladded, by a fastening material (10.4). A seat cover (6, 20) is provided for a seat (5) and includes the edge strip (10). A seat (5) is also provided that includes the seat cover (6, 20).

A clip for securing a cover to an opening defined in a base includes a base defining a lower surface and an upper surface distal from the lower surface, the base further defining a cutout extending from the lower surface to the upper surface; a first wall extending from the upper surface of the base of the clip and defining a first latch nail at a distal end of the first wall; and a second wall extending from the upper surface of the base and defining a second latch nail at a distal end of the second wall, the first latch nail and the second latch nail defining a gap therebetween at the distal end of each of the first wall and the second wall, the cutout defined in the base between the first wall and the second wall.

A sling chair may include a frame having one or more side rails, each side rail having a J-channel, and a fabric having one or more edges. The J-channel may include a neck and a foot, and be configured to receive a rod connected to a fabric edge. A locking strip may be inserted and force fit into the J-channel to lock the fabric edge and rod in the J-channel. The locking strip may include one or more lateral protrusions for mating with a ridge along an inner surface of the side rail.

A chair comprises a seat and a backrest carried between opposite frame sides each with a backrest support, a front leg and a rear leg. The seat comprises an upholstered seat cushion disposed on the seat. The upholstered seat cushion comprising a cushion layer carried by a backing and covered by a layer of upholstery. The layer of upholstery extends over the cushion layer and the backing, and wraps around a perimeter of the backing. A snap connection attaches the backing of the upholstered seat cushion to the seat. The snap connection comprises resilient hooks extending from backing of the seat cushion and into holes in the seat.

An upholstered component, such as panels, assembled onto a furniture frame or a chair mechanism by way of a connection system provides a robust connection and economical manufacturing process. The connection includes a T-nut and a spacer attached on opposite sides of a wood form to be upholstered. The threaded barrel of the T-nut inserted in a hole through the wood form and with T-nut prongs embedding into a surface of the side of the wood form that will be facing outwardly on the furniture. The spacer is inserted into the hole at the opposite side of the wood form and is retained therein by an interference fit. The wood form is upholstered and is then attached to the furniture frame or mechanism with a bolt connecting to the furniture frame or mechanism and then extending through the spacer, into the hole and into the threaded barrel of the T-nut.

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.
