Benefits of technology

"The present patent provides a chair that can be used in a chair lifting ritual at celebratory events. The chair has handle means attached to the legs of the chair, which can be fixed or hinged. The handle means can be a circular member with a central receiving portion and a handle portion, or a receiving ring and a handle ring with straps. The chair is securely fastened into the receiving ring and the handle ring, allowing for easy lifting. The technical effects of this invention include providing a chair with provisions for a chair lifting ritual and making it easier to secure the chair for the occasion."

Problems solved by technology

For those who have been involved in such rituals, it is very clear that the so called “chairs” used for the chair lifting ritual are not suited for such purpose.
As such, and is often the case, the chair is difficult to hold by simply grabbing and holding onto the vertical leg of the same.
