A swivel mechanism for a vehicle seat includes a base plate configured to be fixed relative to the vehicle and to provide support to the vehicle seat. The vehicle seat is mounted to a seat mounting plate having a first side configured to receive the vehicle seat and a second side opposite the first side, mechanically coupled to the base plate. The seat mounting plate and the base plate are mechanically coupled so that when the seat mounting plate is rotated about an axis of the base plate the seat mounting plate translates in a plane that is substantially perpendicular to the axis of the base plate. A locking recess is formed in one of the base plate or the seat mounting plate, and is adapted to receive a locking pawl pivotably mounted to the opposite one of the base plate or the seat mounting plate. The locking recess is biased toward the locking recess such that when the locking pawl and locking recess are engaged, the seat mounting plate is inhibited from movement relative to the base plate.

A tiedown system foundation adapter system provides greater flexibility in spotting equipment on a support surface. An adapter module includes a plate assembly that drops into a slotted track system and is slid along the track system until it fits into an attachment point that restrains the plate assembly from vertical pullout and motion transverse to the track. The plate assembly is then locked into position to restrain it from further translation along the track. An equipment fitting is translatably mounted with respect to the upper surface and attaches to a complementary attachment fitting on the bottom of a piece of equipment. By locating a number of modules in desired locations along the tracks and locating the equipment fitting in each module, a piece of equipment can be oriented in virtually any position and location in the space to be furnished. A deck system for a flush floor is also provided.

A pedestal assembly for supporting a seat including a first cylinder having an inner surface with a plurality of longitudinally-extending channels, and a second cylinder having an inner surface with a plurality of longitudinally-extending channels and an outer surface with a plurality of longitudinally-extending grooves. The assembly also includes a first bushing that is operably coupled to one end of the second cylinder by a plurality of fasteners received within an end of the channels of the second cylinder, and a second bushing that is operably coupled to one end of the first cylinder by a plurality of fasteners received within an end of the channels of the first cylinder. The second bushing includes a plurality of tabs slidably received within the channels on the inner surface of the first cylinder and is adapted to telescopingly guide the second cylinder within the first cylinder.

A jockey seat assembly is adapted to be used on a motorized vehicle and includes a saddle seat having a substantially inverted U-shaped configuration. A height adjusting mechanism is provided for the seat and has an upper frame mounted beneath the saddle seat, a lower frame adapted to be secured to a bottom surface of the vehicle and a collapsible lever assembly interconnected between the upper and lower frames. A biasing arrangement is secured between outermost ends of the lever assembly in the upper frame and the lower frame for urging the upper frame and the seat away from the lower frame. A pair of adjustment plates are fixed externally to the lever assembly and provided with a series of slots defining a number of vertical height adjusting positions. An actuator extends forwardly of the seat and the upper frame and is pivotally connected to the upper frame. The actuator has a pair of links normally biased into engagement with the slots for normally establishing a desired vertical height adjustment for the seat relative to the lower frame upon pivotal movement of the actuator. The jockey seat assembly may optionally include a pair of adjustable leg supports, a pair of handlebars and a backrest for further support.

A support mechanism comprises a base member, first and second support arms, first and second synchronizing arms, and a load-supporting platform. The first support arm is connected to a pivot bracket and the based member in a manner to permit pivoting movement of the first support arm between stowed and deployed positions. The second support arm is connected to the pivot bracket and the load-supporting platform in a manner to permit pivoting movement of the second support arm relative to the load-supporting platform between stowed and deployed positions. The first and second synchronizing arms are also operatively connected to the based member, pivot bracket and load-supporting platform in a manner so that the first synchronizing arm and first support arm maintain a substantially parallel relationship with one another throughout the entire range of movement of the first support arm, and so that the second synchronizing arm and second support arm also maintain a substantially parallel relationship with one another throughout the entire range of movement of the second support arm.

Described herein is a shock mitigation apparatus. The shock mitigation apparatus may be utilized in a marine environment, able to absorb shocks transmitted to a seat system from a structure to which the seat is affixed. The shock mitigation apparatus includes at least one leaf spring wherein the leaf spring is cantilevered at one end and pivoted at a distal end thereof, and wherein the pivoted end is free to articulate upon flexure of the leaf spring.

A retractable boat extension. The retractable boat extension is a platform that is attachable to a boat, such as a pontoon boat, that provides additional space to transport items or lounge upon. The platform includes a sliding mechanism having an actuator for sliding relative to the boat, pedestal mounts for attaching a plurality of interchangeable accessories thereto, such as grills, fishing chairs and food preparation tables, an outboard motor mount configured to receive a variety of outboard motors including, but not limited to, trolling motors, and a mounting bracket configured to receive a forward ramp for handicapped access to the pontoon boat.

A personal watercraft comprising: a) a generally vertical outer hull; b) a bottom member affixed to the lower edge of said outer hull and closing the watercraft from the encroachment of surrounding water into the vessel; c) a generally concave inner hull rigidly attached at its upper edge to the upper edge of said outer hull and extending downwardly toward said bottom; and d) a generally horizontal deck fixedly attached at its edges to the lower edge of said inner hull to form an enclosed space with said outer hull, inner hull, and bottom member; said deck having a size sufficient for the support of at least one person in a standing or reclining position and of sufficient cient strength and support to avoid undue bending from the weight of the user.

A seat slider assembly is disclosed. The slider seat includes a seat mount and a first slider guide extending along at least a portion of the perimeter of the seat mount. A second slider guide extends from the surface of the seat mount at a position distally located from the perimeter of the seat mount. A slider plate to which a vehicle seat can be mounted includes a first channel for slidably engaging the first slider guide and a second channel for slidably engaging the second slider guide such that the slider plate is slidable between a first position and a second position relative to the seat mount. A locking lever is movably coupled to the slider plate and includes a locking structure to prevent the slider plate from moving relative to the seat mount. A control member operatively coupled to the locking lever to cause the locking lever to move toward an unlocked position wherein the locking structure allows the slider plate to move relative to the seat mount. In some examples, a trim piece is adapted to at least partially cover fasteners mounting the assembly to a vehicle support surface.

A seat for marine use including a hollow primary seat structure. The primary seat structure has a generally upright back portion and a seat portion formed integrally with the back portion and extending forwardly therefrom. The back portion includes at least a pair of first female connector structures, and the seat portion includes at least a pair of second female connector structures. The seat further includes a pair of armrests having integral hook-shaped connectors at first ends thereof. The hook-shaped connectors are received in the first female connectors of the primary seat structure. The armrests also include integral male connectors at second ends that are received in the second female connector structures of the primary seat structure.
