ABSTRACT:
The present device is directed to a hanging chair, which may also be characterized as a swing. The chair utilizes a plurality of elongated lateral crosspieces. Some of these form a base or bottom and some form a back to the chair. All have orifices at opposite ends. There are also a plurality of elongated side crosspieces which likewise have orifices at opposite ends and one end of these crosspieces are aligned or interweaved or otherwise arranged with the lateral crosspieces forming the back of the chair. There is optionally at least one front crosspiece likewise having orifices at opposite ends. A flexible cord passes through at least some of the orifices so as to align and hold in place both the lateral crosspieces and the side crosspieces, as well as the front crosspieces so as to conform the pieces into a hanging chair arrangement. The suspension is achieved by one and the same rope or cord which passes through the orifices in the aforesaid pieces so that there is direct suspension. Spacers are used between the forward ends of the side crosspieces and an optional center stack of spacers may be included to create a divider for user or users. The critical feature of the present invention is that the suspension vectors, that is, the forces from suspension, pass directly rather than indirectly through the rope or cord which holds the crosspieces in place.
