A foldable supporting device includes a linkage unit, a supporting unit and a converting unit. The supporting unit includes a main supporting member that has a first main supporting surface, and at least one auxiliary supporting member that has a first auxiliary supporting surface. The converting unit has at least one converting part that is drivable by movement of the linkage unit to convert the supporting unit between a folded state in which the first main supporting surface and the first auxiliary supporting surface cooperatively form a first angle, and an unfolded state in which the first main supporting surface and the first auxiliary supporting surface cooperatively form a second angle.

Embodiments of chair systems incorporating trekking poles include a low-back design employing fixed-length trekking poles, and a high-back design employing adjustable-length trekking poles that allow for adjusting the recline angle of the chair. The chair system generally includes a tubular frame that releasably engages a flexible seat. The tubular frame includes a front hub and a rear hub spaced one from the other by a cross bar, plus front and rear footings which stabilize the chair system on the ground or undersurface. A V-shaped upper support extending from the front hub supports and holds open the leg portion of the flexible seat, while the trekking poles are releasably engaged with and extend upwardly from the rear hub to support, and hold open and upright the back portion of the flexible seat.

The invention relates generally to a lightweight, collapsible, and portable wheeled seat, e.g., a wheeled office chair or stool, for travel, storage, and mobility. The seat includes a seat base member and a seat surface member collapsible between an open, extended position, which is configured to provide a seating surface, and a collapsed, closed position. The seat surface member includes a central seating surface member fixed to the seat base member that has an outer perimeter, and a pair of oppositely disposed and generally u-shaped seating surface members pivotally secured to the seat base member. Each of the generally u-shaped seating surface members include a pair of leg portions that extend from a base portion thereof, or an inward directed perimeter and a portion of each inward directed perimeter has a shape that substantially complementarily corresponds to a shape of a portion of the outer perimeter of the central seating surface member.

A folding frame and an outdoor table or outdoor chair using the folding frame. The folding frame comprises a base, a plurality of support legs, and a plurality of extension support bars. Both sides on the upper end of the support leg are configured with a teeth part, and every two neighboring support legs are connected through meshing teeth. The base is configured with a locking module to lock the support legs when they are relatively unfolded. The locking module includes a pull rod seat, a spring sheathing the pull rod seat, a plurality of locking blocks, and the pull rod seat is pushed upward under the elastic force of the spring so that the locking block is pushed into the lock slots of the support legs. Thus, the support legs unfolded in relation to the base can be fixed and supported.

The invention relates to a portable chair (1) having two front chair legs (2, 3), two rear chair legs (4, 5), two front chair arms (6, 7), two rear chair arms (8, 9), and two connection elements which are connected via a connection rod. The front chair legs and the rear chair legs each have a free end (2a, 3a, 4a, 5a) which is oriented towards an underlying surface (10), and the front chair arms and rear chair arms each have a free end (8c, 9c) which is oriented towards a seat surface (11) that is defined or can be defined by free ends (6a, 7a) of the front chair arms and free ends of the rear chair arms (8, 9).

To create a stable and safe frame, more particularly in the form of a tripod, having a plurality of rod-like legs (2), which are fastened centrally to a connection part (3), wherein the frame (1) can be folded up into a space-saving transportation position, in which the legs are oriented substantially in parallel, and the frame can be folded out into a usage position, in which the legs are crossed, the invention proposes that at least one concavely rounded support surface (5) for providing support over an area of the leg surface is arranged between the legs (2), more particularly that two support surfaces (5, 5′) of this type are provided, which in the usage position are in contact with an area of the respective leg surface opposite one another.

An assembly for a seat includes a pivot hub defining multiple rotation axes, and a displacing module attached to the pivot hub. Extendable legs are rotatably coupled to the pivot hub and comprise locking devices movable between an unlocked position, in which the legs, when extended, are enabled to retract, and a locked position, in which the legs, when extended, are prevented from retracting. The legs are rotatable between an intermediate position and a deployed position. When the legs are extended, and when in the intermediate position, the displacing module engages the locking devices to move the locking devices from the locked position to the unlocked position. When the legs are extended, rotating the legs from the intermediate position to the deployed position brings the displacing module out of contact with the locking devices.

Embodiments of chair systems incorporating trekking poles include a low-back design employing fixed-length trekking poles, and a high-back design employing adjustable-length trekking poles that allow for adjusting the recline angle of the chair. The chair system generally includes a tubular frame that releasably engages a flexible seat. The tubular frame includes a front hub and a rear hub spaced one from the other by a cross bar, plus front and rear footings which stabilize the chair system on the ground or undersurface. A V-shaped upper support extending from the front hub supports and holds open the leg portion of the flexible seat, while the trekking poles are releasably engaged with and extend upwardly from the rear hub to support, and hold open and upright the back portion of the flexible seat.

A folding seat support frame includes an upper support frame detachably connected to a seat fabric and a lower support frame connected to the upper support frame, where the upper support frame includes an upper connector, short rods rotationally connected to the upper connector at a first limited angle, and upper connecting rods rotationally connected to the short rods at a second limited angle; the lower support frame includes a lower connector and lower connecting rods rotationally connected to the lower connector at a third limited angle; the lower connector and the upper connector are coaxially and rotationally connected; when the folding seat support frame is in an unfolded state, the lower connecting rods and the short rods are oriented to a side of the lower connector; when the folding seat support frame is in a folded state, the short rods are butted against the lower connector.
