System and method for enhanced viewing of an event

摘要

A system and method for enhanced viewing of an event that provides a level, stable resting surface for viewing an event by adjusting at least one support member until a desired level surface is achieved, securely engaging a weighted member to the ground surface, elevating the seat above an obstructive object, and providing facilitated portability. The system includes a portable seat with a strap for carrying the seat on the back. The system also provides adjustable telescoping support assemblies that individually extend and retract to create a level surface for viewing the event. A release assembly biases the support assemblies towards extension, and locks them into a desired height with a spring-biased lock pin. A weighted member attaches to a mounting end of the telescoping support assembly for helping extend the support assembly. The weighted member pivots and includes a sharp end for digging into the ground.

主权项

1. A system for enhanced viewing of an event, the system comprising:
at least one support assembly, the at least one support assembly comprising a substantially square tubular shape, the at least one support assembly further comprising a first telescoping member and a second telescoping member, the second telescoping member being configured to slidably engage with the first telescoping member for extending and retracting, the second telescoping member being biased to extend from the first telescoping member, wherein the at least one support assembly extends and retracts independently; a release assembly, the release assembly being operatively biased to secure the first telescoping member and the second telescoping member together, the release assembly comprising a lever, the lever comprising a substantially Z-shape, the lever comprising a lever first end and a lever second end, the release assembly further comprising a first fastener for at least partially passing through an aperture in the first telescoping member and latching into one of a plurality of vertically aligned apertures in the second telescoping member, the release assembly further comprising a Z-shaped spring member, the spring member being configured to support the lever second end, wherein downward pressure on the lever second end vertically displaces the first fastener to release the first telescoping member from the second telescoping member for extending and retracting the at least one support assembly; and a seat, the seat being disposed to position on the at least one support assembly, the seat being configured to provide a resting surface for viewing the event.
