Abstract
A modular seating system including at least two horizontally oriented support members and at least one core base component of recycled plastic having a top and a bottom adapted to engage the horizontally oriented support members. The plastic core base component includes a series of feature attachment points molded directly into the top and the bottom of the plastic core base component, and the bottom of the plastic core base component includes defined receptacles for at least four vertical support members. The modular seating system may include a core back and armrest component adapted to engage the horizontally oriented support members and the core base component and the feature attachment points.
Claims18
A modular seating system comprising:
- a seat, the seat comprising:
- at least two horizontally oriented support members;
- at least one core base component of recycled plastic comprising;
- a top and a bottom adapted to engage the at least two horizontally oriented support members;
- a series of feature attachment points integral with and positioned on the top and the bottom of the at least one core base component;
- at least four sides, four sloping inner walls and a hollow centre, and
- at least two parallel channels that run a length of the at least one core base component, wherein each of the at least two parallel channels are positioned on either side of the hollow centre, and each receives one horizontally oriented support member of the at least two horizontally oriented support members;
- wherein the bottom of the at least one core base component includes defined receptacles positioned on an outer side of the at least two parallel channels to receive at least four vertical support members and support webbing.
A modular seating system comprising:
- a seat, the seat comprising:
- at least two horizontally oriented support members;
- at least one core base component of recycled plastic comprising;
- a top and a bottom adapted to engage the at least two horizontally oriented support members;
- a series of feature attachment points integrally molded directly to and positioned on the top and the bottom of the at least one core base component;
- at least four sides, four sloping inner walls and a hollow centre;
- and
- at least two parallel channels that run a length of the at least one core base component, wherein each of the at least two parallel channels are positioned on either side of the hollow centre, and each receives one horizontally oriented support member of the at least two horizontally oriented support members;
- at least one core back component of recycled plastic having a front, a back, a top and a bottom and adapted to engage the series of feature attachment points of the at least one core base component;
- wherein the bottom of the at least one core base component includes defined receptacles positioned on an outer side of the at least two parallel channels to receive at least four vertical support members and support webbing.
