Pendulous support
Abstract
A pendulous support includes a base support having two opposed supporting ends, two support frames each of which including a first and second resilient arms wherein the first and second resilient arms respectively have two connecting ends spaced apart and connecting to the respective supporting end of the base support and two hanging ends upwardly and inclinedly extending until the two hanging ends meet together to form an inverted V-shaped structure of the support frame and defining an upper hanging portion thereof, and a fabric made body support suspendedly supported between two hanging portions of the support frames in such a manner that the body support is capable of swinging in vertical and sideward directions.

5 . The pendulous support, as recited in claim 2 , wherein said base support comprises two spaced apart floor stands transversely extending with respect to said support frames that said supporting ends are formed on two outer longitudinal sides of said floor stands respectively, and two retaining arms spacedly and detachably extended between said two floor stands to retain a distance between said floor stands to support said support frames.
6 . The pendulous support, as recited in claim 4 , wherein said base support comprises two spaced apart floor stands transversely extending with respect to said support frames that said supporting ends are formed on two outer longitudinal sides of said floor stands respectively, and two retaining arms spacedly and detachably extended between said two floor stands to retain a distance between said floor stands to support said support frames.
7 . The pendulous support, as recited in claim 5 , wherein said hanging ends of said first and second arms are pivotally connected with each other such that when said connecting ends of said first and second arms are detached from said base support, said first and second arms are pivotally folded to minimize a distance between said two connecting ends thereof so as to fold up said respective support frame.
8 . The pendulous support, as recited in claim 6 , wherein said hanging ends of said first and second arms are pivotally connected with each other such that when said connecting ends of said first and second arms are detached from said base support, said first and second arms are pivotally folded to minimize a distance between said two connecting ends thereof so as to fold up said respective support frame.
9 . The pendulous support, as recited in claim 2 , wherein said base support comprises two spaced apart floor stands longitudinally extending with respect to said support frames that said first and second arms are connected to said floor stands respectively in an end-to-end manner, and two retaining arms spacedly and pivotally extended between said two floor stands to retain a distance between said floor stands to support said support frames and to fold up said base support to minimize said distance between said floor stands.
10 . The pendulous support, as recited in claim 4 , wherein said base support comprises two spaced apart floor stands longitudinally extending with respect to said support frames that said first and second arms are connected to said floor stands respectively in an end-to-end manner, and two retaining arms spacedly and pivotally extended between said two floor stands to retain a distance between said floor stands to support said support frames and to fold up said base support to minimize said distance between said floor stands.
11 . The pendulous support, as recited in claim 9 , wherein said hanging ends of said first and second arms are pivotally connected with each other such that when said connecting ends of said first and second arms are detached from said base support, said first and second arms are pivotally folded to minimize a distance between said two connecting ends thereof so as to fold up said respective support frame.
12 . The pendulous support, as recited in claim 10 , wherein said hanging ends of said first and second arms are pivotally connected with each other such that when said connecting ends of said first and second arms are detached from said base support, said first and second arms are pivotally folded to minimize a distance between said two connecting ends thereof so as to fold up said respective support frame.
13 . The pendulous support, as recited in claim 1 , wherein said base support comprises two retaining frames coupling with said first and second arms in an end-to-end manner and means for retaining said retaining frames at a support distance, wherein each of said retaining frames has a predetermined curvature such that when said support frames are coupled with said retaining frames, said support frames are allowed to swing at said longitudinal direction.
14 . The pendulous support, as recited in claim 13 , wherein said retaining means comprises an elongated chain having two ends securely mounted to said retaining frames respectively such that said support distance between said retaining frames is defined as a length of said elongated chain.
15 . The pendulous support, as recited in claim 13 , wherein each of said first and second arms is coaxially inserted into said respective retaining frames in a slidably movable manner such that said first and said second arms are outwardly and coaxially slid out from said retaining frames to extend a distance between said two hanging portions of said support frames respectively while said first and said second arms are inwardly and coaxially slid into said retaining frames to minimize said distance between said two hanging portions of said support frames respectively for folding up said pendulous support.
16 . The pendulous support, as recited in claim 14 , wherein each of said first and second arms is coaxially inserted into said respective retaining frames in a slidably movable manner such that said first and said second arms are outwardly and coaxially slid out from said retaining frames to extend a distance between said two hanging portions of said support frames respectively while said first and said second arms are inwardly and coaxially slid into said retaining frames to minimize said distance between said two hanging portions of said support frames respectively for folding up said pendulous support.
17 . The pendulous support, as recited in claim 14 , wherein each of said first and second arms further comprises an inner tubular member defining said connecting end to coaxially extend from said respective retaining frame slidably and an outer tubular member defining said hanging end to coaxially extend from said inner tubular member in a slidably movable manner such that each of said first and second arms is adapted to fold up when said outer tubular member is coaxially slid into said respective inner member to minimize a distance between said connecting end and said hanging end.
18 . The pendulous support, as recited in claim 16 , wherein each of said first and second arms further comprises an inner tubular member defining said connecting end to coaxially extend from said respective retaining frame slidably and an outer tubular member defining said hanging end to coaxially extend from said inner tubular member in a slidably movable manner such that each of said first and second arms is adapted to fold up when said outer tubular member is coaxially slid into said respective inner member to minimize a distance between said connecting end and said hanging end.
19 . The pendulous support, as recited in claim 17 , wherein said base support further comprises an arm locker provided at each said supporting end of said retaining frames to lock up said respective first and second arm in a slidably movable manner.
20 . The pendulous support, as recited in claim 18 , wherein said base support further comprises an arm locker provided at each said supporting end of said retaining frames to lock up said respective first and second arm in a slidably movable manner.Cited by (0)
