| 20080238177 | Stretch strap of a chair - A stretch strap of a chair has multiple stretch ropes and a soft sleeve. The soft sleeve receives the two stretch ropes therein. Each stretch rope has multiple rubber cords and a covering layer binding the rubber cords therein. Since the covering layer is a weave, so there are gaps on the covering layer and a concave is formed between the two adjacent stretch ropes, when the stretch ropes are tied together. However, the woven covering layer is inside of the soft sleeve, the soft sleeve prevents dirt from receiving in the gaps and the concaves. In addition, a chair user directly sits on the soft sleeve not on the woven covering layers and feels comfortable. | 10-02-2008 |
| 20100133893 | CHAIR HAVING ELASTIC BANDS FOR SUPPORT SURFACES AND DEVICE FOR SECURING THE BANDS TO THE CHAIR - A chair uses multiple elastic bands to form the seating surfaces. The elastic bands are held in place with a mounting bracket which facilitates easy assembly of the chair and reduces the likelihood of breakage or improper assembly of the elastic bands. The elastic bands are positioned nearly level with the chair side rails and mounting bracket, and the elastic bands cover the mounting screws to provide a chair which is more comfortable and more aesthetically pleasing. | 06-03-2010 |

| 20140049091 | APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING TENSION OF ELONGATE STRAP USED IN STRAP FURNITURE - A strap-tightening structure for a furniture item having a frame that supports an elongate strap. The elongate strap includes a rearward section that overlies the back rest of the furniture and a forward section that overlies the seat section. A rearward end of the elongate strap overlies a transversely disposed rearward end of the frame and is secured against longitudinal displacement when the forward end of the elongate strap is pulled taut at the forward end of the furniture. A pair of tensioning belts are secured to a forward end of the elongate strap. Each of the tensioning belts is disposed in overlying relation to a transversely disposed forward end of the frame. A pair of releasable buckles is secured to a bottom side of the elongate strap and adjustably engages the tensioning belts so that the elongate strap can be pulled taut whenever it develops a sag. | 02-20-2014 |
