Abstract:
Mobile folding restaurant booth style benches are provided, which may be arranged in opposed pairs to form restaurant style booths. An individual bench incorporates a mechanism for shifting the weight of the bench between a mobile base, which may be supported by swivel casters, and a stationary base, which may be supported by non-slip feet, actuated by pivoting a bench seat down from a folded storage position to an unfolded seating position. The weight shifting mechanism may include an engagement member, which is initially spaced apart from an actuator at a folded angle of the seat, and which contacts and begins transmitting force and movement to the actuator at a partially unfolded angle of the seat. Preferably, the bench further includes a biasing component that biases the stationary base upward relative to the mobile base.

Claim (Index 9):
The folding bench of  claim 6 , the actuation member comprising a generally horizontal bar housed in a bushing, the bushing configured to be contacted by the engagement member and to rotate around the bar during movement of the engagement member in contact with the bushing to inhibit rubbing between the engagement member and the actuation member.
