Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a novel chair with a rotating table and an easy-to-use book storage box, which helps to relieve eye and spine stress during long study / work sessions for students, office workers, and the elderly, thereby improving health and posture for all. Background Technology

[0002] There are no study chairs on the market that fully integrate a simple table or bookcase. Existing chairs, separate tables, and separate bookcases are all flawed and difficult for students, computer users, or office workers. Pull the chair back, sit down, lean against the table, and read. To study another book, stand up, pull the chair back, and walk to get the new book. Why not reduce standing and walking, thus allowing for longer study sessions? Our invented chair, table, and bookcase are also cheaper, use less material, and offer better posture. Existing writing chairs have a writing pad that must be lifted up and down on hinges each time you change books. These chairs require clearing the books from the writing pad before each time you stand or sit down. Our new invention doesn't lift the writing pad; it simply allows you to easily push and pull the table with books on it. Writing chairs often have a book storage space under the chair, requiring you to bend your spine to reach or place books under the chair. With our design, books are placed on the table and easily pushed and pulled. We make reading and studying easier and eliminate spinal curvature and eye strain.

[0003] Technical issues

[0004] The existing individual chairs, tables, and bookcases have the following drawbacks in use:

[0005] 1. Pull the chair back, stand in front of the table, pull the chair next to the table and sit down.

[0006] 2. After reading, stand up, pull your chair back, pick up the new book / notebook, and place it on the table.

[0007] 3. Pull the chair back to the table and sit down to study.

[0008] 4. Most chairs are not height-adjustable for children aged 10 to 18.

[0009] 5. Most children develop spinal curvature from sitting, which can damage their eyes and spine.

[0010] 6. It will quickly distract you, leading to a decline in your learning skills.

[0011] 7. We have to buy multiple chairs as we grow up to avoid eye and spinal strain, wasting money, environmental problems, and disposable furniture issues.

[0012] Problem Solution

[0013] Our new chair with a table and book storage box is a simpler solution:

[0014] 1. Pack books and notebooks into the side bookcase for study at your scheduled time.

[0015] 2. Sit in the chair,

[0016] 3. Use the wheels to pull the table and place the required books / notebooks on the table.

[0017] 4. After studying, without bending your spine like you would with your current writing chair, replace the books / notebooks you studied in the side book box and pick up the new books to study.

[0018] 5. After finishing your studies, put your books / notebooks in the book storage box. Pushing the table in front of you is less strenuous than pushing the chair.

[0019] 6. The chair and table legs have height-adjustable elements—pin / bolt mechanisms—to accommodate the sitting height needs of different age groups, allowing the chair to be used for a long time, even into old age.

[0020] The new chair allows students to have safe eyes and a straight spine—a correct posture.

[0021] Therefore, the object of this invention is to determine a solution to the problem of good posture during growth, while keeping the cost of long-term use of the chair / table low. This is an investment in good posture and longer study time, and is easy to use for extended periods. Extensive searches were conducted using the internet, and relevant patent specifications for chairs with swivel tables and side bookcases were examined. Because this invention is entirely different, the inventors were unable to find any patent specifications in available databases when using a novel chair with a swivel table and side bookcase. Searches of the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, the European Patent Office, other agencies, known literature, and literature from chair and table companies did not reveal anything similar to ours. We were unable to cite any prior art novel chairs with a table that rotates (not about an axis) via a hinged joint and with a bookcase of similar structure or function. Summary of the Invention

[0022] The new chair features a four-legged body, a seat, and a backrest that supports an upright spine and provides comfortable seating. The four legs have height-adjusting pins / bolts for easy height adjustment as the child grows. For right-handed users, the left front leg connects to one of the table legs for easy right-hand rotation. For left-handed users, the right front leg can have a table joint to push the table to the right. The other table leg is a caster or wheel for rolling the table. The table has only two legs – one for pivoting and one wheeled. Our table differs from existing four-legged tables. The wheeled table leg has height-adjusting pins / bolts, similar to a cane, with a series of holes on the moving tube. The table legs support the tabletop, which can be a wooden / plastic writing board of the desired size. The other side of the chair has a bookcase for storing study books / notebooks. The new chair is easy to use: simply place the books / notebooks in the bookcase, sit in the chair, pull the chair to the table, adjust the table's tilt / height, and place the books for studying. After studying, place the book in the side bookcase and choose a new book / notebook for longer study sessions. The chair has water / coffee / snack holders to prevent damage / splashing onto the table / bookcase while studying. It's a height-adjustable chair with a low-cost table—saving parents on furniture costs—and features good ergonomics for spinal / eye health. Attached Figure Description

[0033] The following description describes the salient features, construction method, usage method and advantages of the novel invention.

[0034] This novel device features a chair with a table and bookcase, designed for years of use and with a pleasing appearance. Existing chairs and individual tables have remained unchanged. The purpose of this invention is to overcome the inherent shortcomings of individual chairs, tables, and bookcases in terms of use and cost. To this end, a novel invention has been proposed. Our chair, table, and bookcase are superior, easy to use, easy to maintain, cost-effective, time-saving, and even healthier. Our improvement is not a workshop improvement, but rather the result of long-term research into changing the table from four legs to two legs, requiring a perfect joint that allows the table to be easily held and rotated. The issues of table height adjustment and tilting have been researched and resolved. This is not only novel but also significant because most furniture companies in most countries have failed to address this problem due to the long-standing need for a large student / worker population to purchase good ergonomic chairs.

[0035] The novel invention comprises: a chair with joints in the front legs; a double-legged table frame supporting various tilted work / study angles for comfortable eye reading; a side bookcase for easy placement or use of books / notebooks; and a height-adjustable chair with wheeled table legs, saving the cost of a new chair for growing children. These five components in our chairs, tables, and bookcases offer new, innovative, and functional options for everyone's work / study.

[0036] This innovative device helps children develop safe eye and spinal posture, thereby reducing the energy and stress of long hours of work / study.

[0037] This new type of chair is a necessity for growing children who have less energy for studying, a problem faced by children in all countries.

[0038] The new chair according to the invention is better because it is compact and easy for children / adult workers to use.

[0039] The present invention has a chair 1 ( Figure 1 Table 2 and a bookcase 3 on the other side. Chair 1 has four legs, a seat, and a backrest (not numbered in the drawing). The lower part of the four legs has height adjustment elements (such as pins / bolts 4). Figure 9 The table is shown with two sliding tubes for increasing or decreasing the height of the chair. A joint 5 is located on the front left leg of the chair for stable fixing and easy rotation of the table for a right-handed person. For a left-handed person, the joint can be located on the right front leg. A diagram has been provided for a right-handed person. It is easy to imagine the reverse image for a left-handed person, with the right front leg having a pivot for rotating the table to the right.

[0040] A table leg 6, now referred to as a pivot leg, is fixed to the other side of the chair joint. The pivot leg does not contact the floor. The table has another wheeled leg 7 with bottom wheels 8 for rolling on the floor. A cross tube 17 secures and holds the two legs to stabilize the table's rotation. The wheeled leg 7 has a height adjustment element—a pin / bolt 9—located on a sliding tube at its lower part. Figure 2 , Figure 3 ), for height adjustment for use over many years by growing children. Pivot-type and wheel-type table legs have upper height adjustment pins / bolts 19 on the sliding tube. Figure 2 The table is designed for height adjustment while seated in a chair. The tops of the two table legs have a central table support tube 10 for securing the table mat. Both ends of this support tube 10 are bent short tubes for attachment to the tops of the pivot legs and wheel legs. The wooden / plastic writing / study mat 11 has two bottom rings or clamps 12 for attachment to the upper table support tube 10. The clamps hold the table mat in place and facilitate folding or raising the writing / study mat 11 to maintain the correct comfortable height and tilt for eye comfort during study. The sides of the table mat have rings 13 for bottom tilt bars 13 to securely hold the table study mat 11 in use. Each side of the table may have two tilt bars for stable and secure use. A simple form of tilt bar is a hook-fitted ring on the bottom of the table legs 6, 7 and the table mat 11. The tilt bar 13 engages with the ring. One side of the tilt bar is as follows... Figure 3 As shown. In Figure 2 The image shows two tilting rods 13. The tilting rods 13 are simply mounted on the rings of the legs and the table mat. Each side of the table mat can have three or four rings to create three or four tilt angles. The two rings on the table mat 11 are as follows... Figure 3 As shown. The tilt bar helps to firmly support the desk mat for studying, and the good tilt angle makes it comfortable for the eyes. The desk has a locking mechanism 14 ( Figure 2 , Figure 7 This locking device, such as a short chain, bolt, padlock, or hook type, is used to secure the desk to the chair during study to prevent the desk from being accidentally pushed away while studying. It is also a safety device.

[0041] The other side of the chair has 3 book / notebook storage boxes. Figure 2It can have a chair fixing part 15 welded or threaded to the side legs of the chair, a book support base 16 for holding books / notebooks, and side supports 8 to prevent books from falling. It can have folding / expanding slides or tubes for smaller or larger books. A stack of books / notebooks can be kept in the book storage box for study as needed.

[0042] Coffee and snack rack 25 ( Figure 2 It can be attached to the top side of the desk, the side of the chair, or the legs of the desk to prevent spillage on the writing pad 11. The tilt of the writing desk can be adjusted by changing the ring on the legs or the side ring of the support tilt bar 13.

[0043] The table may have a key-operated shelf 22 ( Figure 8 This is used for storing assets. It may have one or more wheeled legs to allow for the placement of necessary books and notebooks in the bookcase 3, enabling the use of a rotating table in the office. The table is located on one side of the chair ( Figure 6 Sit in the chair and pull it towards the table. Figure 7 Adjust the table height using the height pin / bolt 19 to straighten the spine and achieve the correct viewing distance. The tilt bar l3 can adjust the tilt of the table mat for eye comfort. Figure 7 As shown, lock the table lock 14 to the other front legs of the chair, between the chair legs and the wheel legs 7. Place books / notebooks / laptops on the table for studying and writing. For clarity, not all books are shown in all diagrams. When finished, place the studied books / notebooks into the side bookcase 3 and take out new books / notebooks. Study all the books. Then release the table and chair lock 14 and walk away for next use. The seat and backrest provide good back support. Figure 6 , Figure 7 The table's position on the side or front of the chair is shown for easy reading. When using a regular chair and table alone, the wheeled table requires less effort than pulling the chair!

[0044] The metal tubing of the chair and table frames is cut into parts of various sizes and welded or bolted together as shown in the diagram. The seat is secured to the chair, the writing pad is fixed to the top of the table frame, and the adjusting pins / bolts 4 for the chair legs and wheel legs 7 are installed to secure the joint between the chair and table. The table can easily rotate forward from one side at the joint. Furthermore, plastic tubing can also be used for children's model chairs and tables with joints bolted or glued to the front legs of the chair and the pivot legs of the table. The required steel plate thickness and strength can be used instead of tubing. Square tubing can be used instead of round tubing.

[0045] The equipment can be modified. The seat can be plastic, foam material in cold climates, or wood / porous metal material in hot countries. The chair legs can be bent into a good shape using height-adjustable pins / bolts 4. The backrest can be just the spine, full neck or head height with lumbar support, or cervical spine support in a full head height model. The design and shape of the chair can be varied. The chair legs can have screws 23 ( Figure 9 The screw 23 has a wide, molded plastic head at the bottom and operates as a nut welded to the inside of the chair leg for height adjustment. Other alternatives for chair height adjustment can also be used. The chair-table connector 5 can be as follows: Figure 4 The hinge type 20 shown has two plates for window or door hinges. The chair sits firmly on the floor, and the table rotates forward from one side via the hinges, with wheels turning silently for studying / working. Alternatively, a tube 21 with internal top and bottom bushings / bearings 24 ( Figure 5 The internal rotating pivot table legs 6 are retained. The pivot table legs 6 rotate via hinge / bearing tubes 21 to place the table in front of the chair or slide it to the back, saving space. The desktop writing and study mat 1 can be available in different sizes to accommodate various books (a book, notebook, or larger), drawing size, or office laptop size. Different sizes can be planned for different adults and children of each age group. Children aged 2 to 5 can read without a bookcase, and the table and chair height can be adjusted for meals. From 6 to 10 years old, the seat width is appropriately hip-sized. A small bookcase can help. The table can also be used for reading or eating. After age 11, the chair may be wider to fit adult hip sizes, with longer height adjustments for the table / chair legs, allowing for use into old age. Any additional coffee stand 25 can be used. Figure 2 The chair includes secure mounting points for items such as snacks and a computer for comfortable use. A coffee rack (25) can also be included. Figure 2 The design of the chair or table can vary in shape and color to suit different aesthetics. A tilt bar can be replaced with a hydraulic or electric mechanism with controls, but this is more expensive. The height of the bookcase can also be adjusted using bolts in a series of holes on the chair legs. Wheels can be screwed into nuts at the bottom of the wheel legs. Chair / table locks can be magnets fixed to the table legs, similar to magnetic latches on doors, attached to the chair legs or the main body.

[0046] Chairs and tables can be made of engineering plastics, wood, or metal to suit the required age and weight.

[0047] This invention can be modified in various embodiments, and the scope of this invention is not limited to the embodiments described above. Therefore, if a modified embodiment includes structural elements within the scope of protection claimed by this invention, it should be considered to fall within the scope of the claims of this invention.
