ANTI-FATIGUE SEATING SYSTEM
20230355462 · 2023-11-09 ·

A seating system includes a configurable electro-pneumatic mechanical device designed to be installed on any seat that is occupied for an extended period. The seating system incorporates a sequential stimulus process that is programmable and configurable to a user's needs. The seating system is adaptable and can be used in automotive, commercial vehicles, office chairs, lounging chairs, gaming chairs, hospitals, waiting rooms, theaters, schools, aviation and many military environments. In various embodiments, this invention is a completely new seating experience. The seating system, when added to any chair, combats static seating fatigue due to the absence of muscular contraction.

Preloaded personal augmentation suit and method for assisted human motion

A human motion assistance device has an upper torso harness and a preloaded leg strap arrangement affixed to the upper torso harness. The preloaded leg strap arrangement has an X-bracket connected to the upper torso harness. The preloaded leg strap arrangement further uses a plurality of blocks and a preloaded strap routed through the blocks and connected to the X-bracket. The preloaded leg strap arrangement further uses a knee pad with a split seam. The preloaded strap is under tension, even when the human motion assistance device is in a relaxed state. The preloading provides an immediate force which increases under a loaded state. The potential energy stored during the loaded state is released when transitioning from a standing position to a crouched, squatting, or seated position. The configuration allows for maximizing the energy storage without putting excess shoulder pressure on the user when standing.
