Abstract
In a described example, an artificial Christmas tree includes a base and an elongated support. The support has a proximal end portion coupled to the base and an opposite distal end portion. The support is adapted to move relative to the base between a prone position and an erect position, and the distal end portion is above the base in the erect position.
Claims20
An artificial Christmas tree, comprising:
- a plurality of frame sections configured to be assembled to form a tree frame, the tree frame having an outer frame portion configured to support artificial tree features;
- a base configured to support at least a portion of the artificial Christmas tree on a surface;
- an elongated support having a proximal end coupled to the base and an opposite distal end spaced longitudinally apart from the proximal end, a length of the support being commensurate with a height of the tree frame;
- and
- means for moving the support between respective prone and erect positions.

An artificial Christmas tree, comprising:
- a base;
- a mounting post coupled to the base and moveable between a prone position and an erect position;
- an elongated support having a proximal end and an opposite distal end, in which the proximal end of the support is configured to couple to the mounting post to so the support is moveable with the mounting post between respective prone and erect positions;
- and
- a plurality of frame sections configured to be assembled to form a tree frame, the tree frame having an outer frame portion configured to support artificial tree features, and at least some of the frame sections are configured to circumscribe the support.
