Abstract
The connection unit for the swivel rocker employs a hollow vertical pivot pin which is received within the base to permit rotation about a vertical axis. The connection unit employs a pair of U-shaped flexures which provide for a soft rocking motion. These flexures are connected to the pivot pin via a composite beam which imparts side-to-side stability to the swivel rocker.
