Abstract:
1. A method of affording a foldable support structure comprising: providing a frame assembly having a system of support members, the system of support members including frame support members, seat support members, back support members, and support connector members, the back support members each coupling a frame support member to a seat support member; coupling a seat structure to the frame assembly; the seat structure including a seat material and a back material, the seat structure being coupled to the frame assembly at the frame support members, the seat support members, and at the back support members, the back support members allowing the seat structure to firmly support a person seated therein; connecting the frame support members together and the seat support members together with a plurality of foldable frame brace assemblies, a first one of the plurality of foldable frame brace assemblies connecting the frame support members, and a second one of the plurality of foldable frame brace assemblies connecting the seat support members, wherein the system of support members and the plurality of frame brace assemblies allow the frame assembly to fold in a front-to-back manner and in a side-to-side manner; coupling the upper ends of the frame support members to the lower ends of the seat support members with support connector members, wherein the support connector members are coupled together at a point of intersection, such that each support connector connects a frame support member to an opposing seat support member within the frame assembly.
