basketball stand chair

basketball stand chair by xinmin liu from china

designer's own words:

(1)Teenager is sporting and playing age with full of fantasies, teenager is "cool" age. So the teenager furniture
should be mixed the function of furniture and sporting ware. It should be multiple in function and appearance.
Their furniture should be "cool" with full of creation. I designed this basketball stand chair just for this idea.
(2)This Basketball stand chair is not only a chair,but also a real basketball stand,even a dartboard. Its appearance
looks like a small basketball stand with a folding hoop, You can see that the chair's netting-seat is made from
the same material of the netting of the basket. So, the netting-seat looks like a large square hoop, and the two
arms are also used as string bags made of the same material, they may store some small articles in common use,
e.g. walkman; music disks; tennis-ball; even magazine and drink bottle when teenager relaxes in this basketball stand
chair.(See Pic.1 attached)So,its formal aspect as well as its functional ones.
(3 )Structure and materials: Steel pipe,MDF board and nylon string-net form this basketball stand chair. The knocked-down
structure makes all of the chair parts to be packed into a small carton for saving the packing and freight charge.
Teenager can assembles it easily according to the assembly manual.
The seat height can be adjusted by a screw key according to the teenager's growing on the basis of ergonomics.
(See Pic.1 attached) The basketball stand can be adjusted from 18" to 70" by additional steel pipes easily.
4 plastic bladders formed basketball shape as the ballast can make the basketball stand steady. the plastic bladders
can be filled by water, and total weight of 4 plastic bladders water-filled are about 33kgs. The ballast of basketball shape
matches the basketball stand well. One ballast is put on the netting-seat,another 3 ballasts are hung on the
basketball stand(the length of the sling can be adjusted according to the height of the stand.). This special sling ballast can
make the stand more steady than other teenager basketball stands. (See Pic.2 attached)
The dartboard designed specially can be fixed on the backboard of this chair. It makes one more game function to this
multifunctional chair. Teenager can unfix and fix the dartboard on the backboard easily and freely.(See Pic.3 attached)
