Abstract
A demountable indoor/outdoor arena seating system includes a plurality of seat groups in seating modules. The seat group modules are supported by a plurality of floor board deck members of joined planks, wherein the deck members have attachment extensions attachable to the seat group modules. The deck members are supported by inner struts insertable in outer hollow struts. The inner struts are grooved to accommodate the heads of shortened locking bolts having spring loaded cam rings to lock the bolts in place.
Claims20
An indoor/outdoor seating system of at least one seating module of spectator seats, which system can be assembled and disassembled efficiently while providing an attractive, safe and comfortable seating area for a wide variety of spectator events, comprising:
- a plurality of lower hollow post sections insertable within upper hollow post sections, said lower hollow post sections having longitudinally extending grooves accommodating the head of at least one locking bolt therethrough,
- said joined post sections supporting at least one floor board deck member having at least one attachment extrusion flange extending therefrom,
- said at least one attachment extrusion flange supporting at least one of said seating modules thereon;
- and,
- said seating system having at least one safety handrail banister at an edge thereof,
- wherein said at least one locking bolt has a rotating cam ring shoulder portion out of alignment with a shaft, a spring having a first portion bearing against said shaft, and a second portion moving said rotating cam ring shoulder portion bearing against an inner surface of a center hole in said ring.
An indoor/outdoor seating system of at least one seating module of spectator seats, which system can be assembled and disassembled efficiently while providing an attractive, safe and comfortable seating area for a wide variety of spectator events, comprising:
- a plurality of lower hollow post sections insertable within upper hollow post sections, said lower hollow post sections having longitudinally extending grooves accommodating the head of at least one locking bolt therethrough,
- said joined post sections supporting at least one floor board deck member having at least one attachment extrusion flange extending therefrom,
- said at least one attachment extrusion flange supporting at least one of said seating modules thereon;
- and,
- said seating system having at least one safety handrail banister at an edge thereof,
- wherein said floor board deck includes a plurality of hollow planks fitted in respective grooves of adjacent front extrusions and rear extrusions, said planks being welded together to said extrusions to create a rigid light-weight one-piece assembly, said planks having an upper skid resistant surface.
A locking bolt for an indoor/outdoor seating system of at least one seating module of spectator seats, which system can be assembled and disassembled efficiently while providing an attractive, safe and comfortable seating area for a wide variety of spectator events, said seats supported by a plurality of hollow post sections joined to other hollow post sections by said locking bolt,
- said joined post sections supporting at least one floor board deck member having at least one attachment extrusion flange extending therefrom,
- said at least one attachment extrusion flange supporting at least one of said seating modules thereon;
- said locking bolt comprising a rotating cam ring shoulder portion out of alignment with a shaft, a spring having a first portion bearing against said shaft, and a second portion moving said rotating cam ring shoulder portion bearing against an inner surface of a center hole in said ring.
A floor deck for an indoor/outdoor seating system of at least one seating module of spectator seats, which system can be assembled and disassembled efficiently while providing an attractive, safe and comfortable seating area for a wide variety of spectator events, said seating system having a plurality of hollow post sections joined to other hollow post sections,
- said joined post sections supporting at least one floor board deck member having at least one attachment extrusion flange extending therefrom,
- said at least one attachment extrusion flange supporting at least one of said seating modules thereon;
- and,
- said floor board deck comprising a plurality of hollow planks fitted in respective grooves of adjacent front extrusions and rear extrusions, said planks being welded together to said extrusions to create a rigid light-weight one-piece assembly, said planks having an upper skid resistant surface.
