An ergonomic chair (300) comprising a seat (310), a lower leg support (320), a chest support (330), and a hip support (360); the seat (310) for supporting the posterior thigh (11) and/or buttocks (12) of a seated user (10), the seat (310) being configured to urge the hip of a seated user (10) in a forward direction; the lower leg support (320) for supporting the anterior side of the lower legs (14) of the seated user (10); the chest support (330) for supporting the chest (15) of the seated user (10) in a forward leaning position of the seated user (10); the hip support (360) is configured to support the anterior hip of a seated user (10) as the seat (310) urges the seated user's (10) hip forwardly towards the hip support (360).

Rigidity is improved at a part where side frame pieces overlap each other in a side frame. In a vehicle seat provided with a seat back frame, a side frame 10 of the seat back frame has a first side frame piece 20 and a second side frame piece 30 partially overlapping each other in a direction of extension of the side frame 10. The side frame 10 has an overlapping part 40 where both the first side frame piece 20 and the second side frame piece 30 overlap each other. At the overlapping part 40, the side frame pieces overlap each other in a state where a plurality of closed regions 41 and 42 closed by being surrounded by both side frame pieces are formed in a cross section of the overlapping part 40 intersecting with the direction of extension of the side frame 10.

A height adjusting mechanism for a dentistry stool comprises a support member, a movable height adjusting assembly and a pushbutton actuator. The support member is coupleable to the stool adjacent a seat of the stool. The movable height adjusting assembly is selectively movable up and down relative to the support member. The pushbutton actuator is positionable on a side of the movable height adjusting assembly adjacent a seated user, and is manually actuatable by the seated user to release the movable height adjusting assembly from a locked position at a current height to allow the movable height adjusting assembly to be moved to a new height. The height adjusting mechanism can be implemented to provide a height-adjustable seat back and/or a height-adjustable torso bar.

A stretching device for a leisure chair includes a base. Stretching assemblies are symmetrically and pivotally connected to two sides of the base. The stretching assembly includes a seat plate mechanism. The front part of the seat plate mechanism is pivotally connected to a leg mechanism. The rear part of the seat plate mechanism is pivotally connected to a backrest mechanism. A drive mechanism is provided between the stretching assemblies. The drive mechanism includes a front drive rod and a rear drive rod. The front drive rod and the rear drive rod drive the stretching assemblies to unfold or fold by a reciprocating motion device. Two ends of the front drive rod are fixedly connected to the leg mechanism. Two ends of the rear drive rod are pivotally connected to a first drive member. The middle part of the first drive member is pivotally connected to a second drive member.

A home or office chair is disclosed having a flexible mesh back rest and a full lumbar back support including upper and lower lumbar supports that are located one above the other at the back of the chair to press against the outside of the mesh back rest. The upper and lower lumbar supports are connected to the back of the chair by a bolt so as to move back and forth in first and opposite directions in response to a user seated in the chair moving his back against and away from the flexible mesh back rest. The upper and lower lumbar supports of the full lumbar back support apply continuous pressure through the mesh back rest to provide support for upper and lower lumbar areas of the user's back regardless of whether the user's back is at rest or pressing against the mesh back rest.

An apparatus that supports a user in a variety of positions to comfortably perform tasks, such as applying one or more tattoos to skin of a subject is herein disclosed. The apparatus can be reconfigured to optimally position and support the arms and/or chest of the user. The apparatus includes a vertically movable armrest assembly. Armrests can support the user's forearms while supporting the user's chest such that the user can comfortably perform tasks in front of a chest support of the stool. The armrest assembly can be translated vertically to accommodate the user's body to achieve desired positioning.

A chair is described herein. The chair includes a first back support coupled to a base of the chair using one or more first support arms. The chair also inclues a second back support coupled to the base of the chair using one or more second support arms. The first and second back supports are independently rotatable.

A folding chair includes front and rear supports that fold and/or retract into central beams to reduce the space occupied by the chair in a folded configuration. A backrest is coupled to the central beams with a hub that allows an angle of the backrest relative to the central beams to be selected and for the backrest to be folded flat relative to the central beams. One or more actuators and pin actuators may control the relative movements of the backrest, front support, rear support, and central beams.

A back adjustment system for a chair having a frame that includes a top end and bottom end. The back adjustment system may further include a chair back having a first end and a second end. The first end of the chair back may be mounted solely to the top end of the frame of the chair and also includes an adjusting means, which may be mounted at the bottom end of the frame. The adjusting means may allow for engagement between the bottom end of the frame and the second end of the chair back. The adjusting means may be adapted to telescopically engage between the bottom end of the frame and the second end of the chair back thereby solely moving the second end of the chair back from a retracted position to an extended position.
