Patent attributes
A balance chair includes a central vertical post with a base attached at a lower end of the central post; a flexible joint attached at an upper end of the central post, a seat attached atop the flexible joint; and a plurality of resistance members attached to the central post and the seat, wherein the plurality of resistance members are arranged around the post in a spaced-apart manner, wherein the flexible joint supports the seat and enables the seat to pivot about an effective pivot point as defined by the shape and composition of the flexible joint, and wherein the resistance members resist but do not prevent pivoting of the seat about the effective pivot point. The flexible joint and the resistance members support pivoting of the seat both side-to-side and fore-and aft and any combination thereof. The resistance members limit a degree of pivoting of the seat.
