STAND EQUIPPED WITH COUNTERBALANCE UNIT
A stand includes first to fourth links, first to fourth joints, a front link, first to fifth extension links, and first to fourth extension joints. The first to fourth links are arranged in a parallelogram configuration, wherein the first and third links are arranged on opposite sides and the second and fourth joints are arranged in a diagonal direction. The front link extends from the first link. The first extension link is rotatably connected to the second joint. The second extension link is rotatably connected to the first extension joint. The third extension link is rotatably connected to the second extension joint. The fourth extension link is arranged between the third extension joint and the fourth extension joint. The fifth extension link is arranged between the first joint and the second extension joint. The first, fourth, and fifth extension links are in parallel with one another.
Adjustable tablet arm with one-handed release mechanism
A position- and length-adjustable arm (10) for supporting a tablet computer or other electronic device that is capable of numerous adjustments as desired by the user, and that includes a magnetic tablet attachment assembly (32) that permits the user to remove the tablet computer from the tablet arm with one hand.
Display mount assembly
A TV wall mounting device includes a wall mount box with vertical supports, a display mount receiving a TV, and an extending/contracting portion between the box and the display mount. The extending/contracting portion has lower and upper arms rotatably attached to the wall mount with rear axles, a pair of linear actuators rotatably attached to the wall mount, a front portion that rises and lowers with action of the actuators, and a horizontally-swiveling portion that is raised and lowered with the front portion and is capable of rotating right-left with respect to the front portion. The display mount is attached to the horizontally-swiveling portion. Parallel operation of the linear actuators, wherein each actuator extends and retracts while keeping the same length as the other actuator, causes the display mount to go up and down. Differential operation of the actuators causes the display mount to rotate right and left.
Load balancing arm for medical device support system
A load balancing arm for a medical device support system. The load balancing arm includes a proximal hub, an adjustable bearing element, a support arm, a spring and a link. A distal end of the support arm is configured to support a medical device load and a proximal end is pivotably mounted to a main bearing element for pivotable movement about a main pivot axis. The spring extends within a cavity of the support arm and is mounted to exert a biasing force between the main pivot axis and a distal end of the spring. The link has a proximal end pivotably mounted to the adjustable bearing element for pivotable movement about an adjustable pivot axis, and a distal end pivotably mounted to the distal end of the spring such that the biasing force exerted by the spring is transmitted through the link to the adjustable bearing element.
Frame lifting mechanism for fitness equipment
A frame lifting mechanism includes a base, a motor, a lead screw, a sliding member, a lifting member and a supporting shaft. The motor is connected to the lead screw, and the lead screw is fastened onto a transmission tube, allowing the transmission tube to move forward and backward while being driven by the lead screw. The sliding member is installed on a sliding track arranged on the base and connected to the transmission tube, allowing the sliding base to actuate with the transmission tube synchronously. A rear end of the lifting base is pivotally attached onto the base for support, and the supporting member uses its two top and bottom ends to be pivotally attached onto the lifting member and the sliding member respectively, allowing the supporting shaft to utilize the movement of the sliding member to drive the lifting member to move upward and downward.
Multi-positional articulating ergonomic device with modular features
An assembly composing of a robust articulating armature with optionally interchangeable platform like components which incorporate and adapts the core armature assembly into a multitude of product configurations each having ergonomic benefits. The core articulating armature is configured to be a variably lift assisted and repositionable in a manner when combined with the other elements, configures to become a device with demonstrably beneficial features in each of its configurations. In some of the configurations, lift assistance and positional support is the primary feature, whereas in other configurations, flexing and returning back to a user designated set position becomes the primary feature. This application discloses a device with the flexibility to be configured in such a manner as to bring benefits to both the consumer and to the manufacture due to its uniquely modular and configurable elements which can be utilized to create a multitude of ergonomic product configurations.
Adjustable Support Arm for Use Between Camera and Camera Support
A support assembly for supporting a camera relative to a camera support includes an elongate support arm, a first bracket assembly for mounting the camera to the support arm and a second bracket assembly for mounting the support arm to the camera support. Each bracket assembly includes i) a clamp member for clamping onto the support arm, ii) a support member pivotal coupled by a pivot shaft on the clamping member, iii) a mounting member supporting the camera equipment relative to the support member; and iv) a locking member adapted to be coupled between the clamping member and the support member so as to simultaneously fix the mounting member relative to the clamping member at a selected angular position and fix the clamping member relative to the support arm at a selected longitudinal position.
Telescoping monopod system for boat seat connection
A monopod for mounting to the boat seat mount of a marine vessel, such as a bass boat or speed boat, which is capable of providing power for mobile accessories via a second monopod affixed to the navigation light port of the boat. The monopod is extendable to heights up to or exceeding eight feet (8′) above the deck of the boat, providing exceptional views for recording with a mounted camera while users participate in sports or other events within the boat. A release mechanism allows one portion of the monopod to telescope away from a second portion, thereby extending the monopod.
Clamping Device And Clamping Arrangement For A Medical Instrument
A clamping device and method for human-medicine or veterinary-medicine applications for the frictionally engaged locking of at least two holding segments, the clamping device has a first holding segment, a second holding segment; a driveable spindle, via which a rotational movement can be converted into an axial longitudinal movement for spindle-locking the second holding segment, and a threaded plate. In this case, the threaded plate can be moved axially in the opposite direction during the spindle movement, wherein, by counter-movement of the threaded plate, at least one wedge body is moveable in a ramp system, in order to clamp the first holding segment.
Short throw projector mount with micro-adjust feature
A short throw projector mount enabling a finely tuned distance adjustment and/or finely tuned height adjustment of an attached projector. The mount includes a wall interface, a projector positioning head, and an elongate arm operably coupling the wall interface and the projector positioning head. A first end of the arm is coupled to the wall interface, and the projector positioning head is operably coupled proximate an opposing second end of the arm such that the projector positioning head is shiftable along a longitudinal axis of the arm. The arm further includes a positioning mechanism arranged to selectively drive shifting of the projector positioning head. A vertical positioning mechanism may be provided to shift the projector vertically relative to the wall interface.
