A chair of the type having a pivotal armrest or armrests in which an extension is provided at the end of the pivotal armrest that is attached to the chair back with the extension being substantially perpendicular to the armrest and extending downwardly when the armrest is in a horizontal operative position. When the armrest of the chair is pivoted upwardly to a position alongside the side edge of the back of the chair, the extension on the armrest is oriented in generally a horizontal position. The extension is substantially shorter than the armrest to provide a short armrest for the elbow area of the arm thereby enabling the chair having a pivotal armrest or armrests to be utilized in the normal manner so that the armrest can be pivoted upwardly to an out of the way position alongside the chair back when it is desired to gain access to a desk drawer or the like with the extension providing a support for the elbow area of the arm even when the armrest is pivoted upwardly to the stored or out of the way position.
A golf bag which is adaptable for carrying or for cart use has a length-adjustable shoulder strap assembly with a slotted shoulder pad. The shoulder strap can be shortened to a configuration in which it lies flush against the bag exterior and a rigid carrying handle secured to the bag protrudes through the slot in the shoulder pad. Other features of the bag include a shock absorbing rubber bumper ring on the base and a magnetic bag top for magnetically attracting steel-shaft clubs stowed in the bag to organized engagement around the rim.
Vertically Adjustable Swivel Support With Lock For Use With Seating
A swivel support for seating such as a boat chair, various vehicle seats and other types of chairs or seats which can swivel and be vertically elevated or lowered that includes a lock structure which will automatically lock the support in angularly adjusted position about a vertical axis when the support is lowered from its elevated position to its lowered position. Many boats are provided with chairs which can be elevated to provide occupants of the chair with a better position for fishing. Chairs of this type are conventionally capable of being swiveled or rotatable about a vertical axis to enable the occupant to assume different angular positions in relation to the gunwales of the boat for a more effective fishing position. The boat chair lock structure will automatically lock the boat chair against rotation or swivel movement when the boat chair is lowered such as when the boat is underway from one location to another. The lock structure for the chair includes components on the stationary base and the movable component of the chair which interengage in one of a plurality of selected positions about a vertical axis when the boat chair is lowered to lock the boat chair in the selected angular position automatically when the boat chair is lowered.
