A lifting support device that includes a linear actuator including a first end configured to support an object, and a load sensor positioned to determine application of a first load on the load sensor by at least the object. The linear actuator is maintained in equilibrium when supporting the first load. The lifting support device further includes a controller coupled in communication with the load sensor, and the controller is configured to selectively actuate the linear actuator in response to application of a second load on the load sensor.

Disclosed is a lifting display screen hanger, comprising a movable rack assembly, a fixed rack assembly and a balance assembly. The balance assembly comprises a balance spring, a tension spring, a pulley component and a linkage component, the linkage component comprising a first linkage component and a second linkage component arranged to intersect each other at an intersection and hinged at the intersection thereof, and an uppermost hinged point of the first linkage component and the second linkage component being connected to the movable rack assembly. A draw cord is connected to a lower end of at least one of the first linkage component and the second linkage component by the pulley component.

A stabilizing device for stabilizing a payload includes a handle assembly, a payload stabilization assembly, and a constant force assembly. The handle assembly includes one or more grips. The payload stabilization assembly is configured to support a payload and permit the payload to rotate about at least one axis of rotation. The constant force assembly is operably connected to the handle assembly, is configured to support the payload stabilization assembly, and includes a parallelogram linkage. The parallelogram linkage includes four pivots and a resilient member obliquely arranged within the parallelogram linkage. The constant force assembly is configured to provide a force that equipoises a gravity force of the payload stabilization assembly with the payload in a vertical direction such that a net force of the payload stabilization assembly with the payload in the vertical direction is substantially zero.

Embodiments of the invention include an apparatus for positioning an electronic display. The apparatus can be combined with an existing work surface to provide a multi-position workstation. In some cases the apparatus includes a mounting portion configured to support an electronic display and a keyboard. The mounting portion may be movable with respect to the work surface between multiple positions, including for example, a sitting position and a standing position. Methods for positioning an electronic display and a keyboard are also included.

A mount for adjusting a mounting plane is disclosed. The mount comprises a first adjustable device, a second adjustable device and a third adjustable device. A first intersection between the first adjustable device and the second adjustable device forming a first principal axis and a second intersection between the second adjustable device and the third adjustable device forming a second principal axis substantially perpendicular to the first principal axis. The first adjustable device, second adjustable device and third adjustable device rigidly coupled together. The first adjustable device is configurable to be adjusted in a first translational degree of freedom, and substantially constrain the first adjustable device in remaining translational degrees of freedom, wherein adjustment of the first adjustable device in the first translational degree of freedom causes a rotation of the mounting plane about the second principal axis. The second adjustable device is configurable to be adjusted in a second translational degree of freedom, and substantially constrain the second adjustable device in remaining translational degrees of freedom, wherein adjustment of the second adjustable device in the second translational degree of freedom causes a rotation of the mounting plane about a third principal axis, perpendicular to the first and second principal axis. The third adjustable device is configurable to be adjusted substantially in the first translational degree of freedom, and substantially constrain the third adjustable device in remaining translational degrees of freedom, wherein adjustment of the third adjustable device in the first translational degree of freedom causes a rotation of the mounting plane about the first principal axis. A first end of each adjustable device is configured to be fixed in location and a second end forms the mounting plane. Each adjustable device comprises a rotation device located between the first end and the second end of each adjustable device, the rotation device configured to allow the second end to rotate about three degrees of freedom.

A display device including a display unit, a support mounted on a floor and having a battery mounted therein, a stand extending in a vertical direction from the support, a slide bracket coupled to a rear face of the display unit and slidably coupled to the stand, and a station detachably coupled to the support to charge the battery is able to be used, so that a degree of usability is high.

Embodiments of the invention include an apparatus for positioning an electronic display. The apparatus can be combined with an existing work surface to provide a multi-position workstation. In some cases the apparatus includes a mounting portion configured to support an electronic display and a keyboard. The mounting portion may be movable with respect to the work surface between multiple positions, including for example, a sitting position and a standing position. Methods for positioning an electronic display and a keyboard are also included.

A kiosk apparatus with a first carriage assembly attached to an interface member. A second carriage assembly is attached to one or more weights and a linkage connects the first carriage assembly to the second carriage assembly in a movable relationship such that as one of the first carriage assembly or the second carriage assembly moves in a first path, the other assembly moves in a second path, the first path being different than a second path.

A display cabinet includes: a case with an opening at a side thereof, a transparent display screen disposed at the opening, and a drive device connected with the transparent display screen. The drive device is configured to drive the transparent display screen to be movable between a position covering the opening and a position exposing the opening.

A floating mechanism (300) and an ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus. The floating mechanism (300) and the ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus can implement the direct superposition of lifting movements and rotational movements, so that the floating mechanism (300) can move in more directions. In addition, a lifting structure and a rotation structure in the floating mechanism (300) are integrally linked in design, accordingly, the link performance is good, the response is fast, the occupied space is small, and the operation range is great.
