ABSTRACT:
The present invention discloses an improved vertically adjustable seat. The seat includes a guide post upon which an adjustable post is telescopically mounted. A spacer or engagement member is mounted between the guide post and the adjustable post to distribute forces applied to the seat over a broad area longitudinally extending between the adjustable post and the guide post. Additionally, the spacer member also provides frictional contact between the adjustable post and the guide post when the adjustable post is locked with respect to the guide post. In order to provide additional friction, a secondary engagement member is provided between the adjustable post and the guide post. This secondary engagement member provides greater friction at the point of locking to facilitate easy locking of the seat at a desired height.
