Definitions

  • This invention relates to support means, particularly but not exclusively seats used in sailboats and cruisers by helmsmen, which seat supports the body of the helmsman, but permits the helmsman's feet to remain in contact with the deck of the boat and allows him to change his body position to compensate for the pitching of the boat.
  • Another version of these support means can be used with a desk or draft table in an office or home.
  • a seat which is adjustable in height relative to the floor of a vehicle and which is pivotally connected to a base member attached to the floor of the vehicle.
  • the seat can be moved to, and retained in, a plurality of angular positions relative to the floor, but when located in any one of the locations, it is rigidly retained in that position.
  • Canadian Patent No. 719,119 discloses a seat or resting support which is adjustable in height and is supported by three leg-like members which, when the seat is in use, are free-standing on a factory floor.
  • support means include a base, a resilient member extending upwardly from the base and a seat attached to said member.
  • the member may be " S " shaped to provide better clearance for the operator to move when the support means are not in use.
  • the seat may be made to pivot to an upright position when not in use or when used as means to lean against.
  • the height of the seat may be adjustable by known means.
  • numeral 10 indicates support means in accordance with the invention comprising a member 12 having a lower portion 12b and an upper portion 12a, a seat 14 connected to member 12 by a connection 16, such as a rack or the like which allows the height of the seat to be adjusted relating to the base.
  • the member is preferably "S" shaped to provide better clearance for the operator's movements when the support means are not in use.
  • member 12 is preferably constructed so that it has the properties of a leaf spring thus allowing some movement towards and away from the apparatus being controlled or the work place.
  • the said member is connected to a base 18 by means 20 which permit movements in lateral directions but resist movements in any other directions.
  • These means 20 are preferably provided with means such as friction disks or the like which displacement allow the seat to remain in the position it occupied when lateral forces are removed.
  • the pivoting means may also be provided with means such as a spring or the like which bring the seat back to its upright position when such forces are removed.
  • the seat 14 preferably has two (2) positions. A first seating position 14a, when seat is lowered, and a second unused or leaning position 14b, when seat is upright.
  • the seat may be biased so that it will automatically return to its upright position when not in use.
  • the said base 18 is preferably removeably secured to the deck of the boat. It can thus be removed to limit dead weight during competitions.
  • the support means 50 comprise a member 52 having a lower portion 52b and an upper portion 52a, a seat 54 secured to member 52.
  • the member is preferably "S" shaped and is constructed so that it has the properties of a leaf spring to allow some movement towards and away from the work place.
  • FIG. 1 there is shown a base 148 which is another way to achieve this purpose.
  • the material used to make said member can be wood and preferably laminated wood, plastic and plastic with reinforced fiber, metal or other similar resilient materials.
