POWERED CHAIRS FOR PUBLIC VENUES, ASSEMBLIES FOR USE IN POWERED CHAIRS, AND COMPONENTS FOR USE IN ASSEMBLIES FOR USE IN POWERED CHAIRS
A remotely controlled powered chair may include a support frame, a seat pivotally mounted on the support frame, an rotary actuator mounted between the support frame and the seat to drive the seat to move relative to the support frame, a backrest pivotally mounted on the seat, and a linear actuator mounted between the seat and the backrest to drive the backrest to move relative to the seat. Thus, the rotary actuator may be controlled by an electrically control device to drive the seat to pivot relative to the support frame reciprocally in a pendulum manner so that the seat is pivoted relative to the support frame automatically. In addition, the linear actuator may be controlled by the electrically control device to adjust the inclined angle of the backrest so as to provide a comfortable sensation to the user. A remotely controlled powered chair may include a base assembly. A chair frame is supported on the base assembly. An actuator mechanism may communicate with the base assembly and the chair frame, and is operable to actuate the chair frame between first and second positions.

INTERCONVERTING SUPPORT FRAMES HAVING PACK-SUPPORTING AND SEAT-SUPPORTING CONFIGURATIONS
The interconverting support frames include a plurality of interconnecting frame members that are configured to be selectively assembled in a pack frame assembled configuration and a seat frame assembled configuration. The plurality of interconnecting frame members includes a central frame member, a plurality of longitudinal frame members, and a plurality of transitioning frame members. The longitudinal frame members are configured to support a pack of the load-carrying device in the pack frame assembled configuration. The transitioning frame members are configured to interconnect with and selectively disconnect from the central frame member to transition the interconverting support frame between the pack frame and the seat frame assembled configurations. In the seat frame assembled configuration, the plurality of longitudinal frame members and the plurality of transitioning frame members are operably interconnected with the central frame member, and the interconverting support frame is configured to support a seat fabric on a ground surface.

Suspension seating surface edge encapsulation method, seating surface carrier and seat made therewith
A seat includes a seat surface having a periphery and a carrier overmolded onto the seat surface over the periphery. The carrier has a periphery and a frame is overmolded onto the carrier over the carrier periphery. The seat is assembled without fasteners. A method for making the seat includes overmolding a carrier onto a periphery of a seat surface to form a seat surface/carrier assembly, tensioning the seat surface/carrier assembly in a mold and overmolding a frame onto a periphery of the seat surface/carrier assembly.
Chair with molded panel
A chair is provided with a seat support frame which may be comprised of at least two tubes spaced apart by a polymer connector. The seat support frame supports a foam cushion and the frame may be embedded in the foam and may include flexible supports across the support frame also embedded in the foam. A rigid panel has a cavity and the rigid panel is arranged adjacent an outer surface of said foam cushion with at least part of said foam cushion positioned within the cavity, wherein said rigid panel is affixed to said support frame and an inner surface of said rigid panel faces the outer surface of said foam cushion.
Portable chair
A portable chair may include a first front leg and a second front leg connected by a front sled and a first back leg and a second back leg connected by a back sled. The first front leg and the first back leg may be pivotally connected to a sliding pivot on an armrest, where the sliding pivot moves relative to the armrest to adjust the chair from an upright position to a reclined position. The seat assembly may include a fabric member that is attached secured to a seat frame by a plurality of fabric retention members. In some examples, the portable chair may include a fabric member is releasably connected to the seat frame and back frame and also extends from a forward rail of the seat frame to a top rail of the back frame.
