Abstract

A chair comprises a stowable tray in which the tray is shaped like a rhomboid and folds across the seat of the chair at an angle with respect to the chair back. A spring provides assistance when the stowable tray is drawn from its housing. Additionally, a number of noise mufflers are provided, which make the chair well suited for use in settings where silence is valued.
