A foldable articulated structure for supporting a seat or a bearing surface includes a first bracket which can be fastened to a wall and a second bracket which can be associated with a seat or a bearing surface. A first arm has a first end hinged to a first portion of the first bracket and a second end hinged to a first portion of the second bracket. A second arm has a first end hinged to a second portion of the first bracket and a second end hinged to a second portion of the second bracket. The foldable articulated structure is movable from a closed configuration in which the second bracket lies on a plane substantially parallel to the plane of the wall, to an open configuration in which the second bracket lies on a plane substantially orthogonal to the plane of the wall.

A retractable seat assembly which can be attached to a vertical structure and which, in the upright position, presents a profile which is relatively thin and in any event poses virtually no impediment to going very close to the vertical structure. The retractable seat assembly having a rear support, a seat, a front support, and a biaser which releasably biases said seat to the generally upright position.
