A chair mechanism includes a frame structure with a seat bottom supported by the frame structure and a seat back supported by the frame structure and pivotable to a reclined position relative to the seat bottom. A leg rest assembly is supported by the seat bottom and movable between a stowed position and an extended position. A rocking support structure connects the seat frame to a base structure.

An electric glider, rocking chair and swing based on a friction pair structure, the glider comprising: a base configured for standing directly on the ground for load-bearing; a chair for bearing a user; and a friction pair installed between the base and chair and configured for providing relative movement of the base and chair.

The dual infant rocking device is adapted for use with two infant/toddlers. The infant/toddlers sit in the dual infant rocking device. The dual infant rocking device is a rocking structure. By rocking structure is meant that the one or more selected individuals seated in the dual infant rocking device are moved in a rhythmic motion relative to the force of gravity. The dual infant rocking device includes a pedestal structure, a plurality of seats, and a control circuit. The pedestal structure, the plurality of seats, and the control circuit are attached to form a single object. The plurality of seats receive the one or more selected individuals. The control circuit provides the motive forces that rock the plurality of seats. The pedestal structure transfers the loads of the plurality of seats, the one or more selected individuals, and the control circuit to a supporting surface.

A recliner or lift and recliner chair is provided having a recline or lift and recline chair mechanism with preferably with at least one recline or lift-recline actuator that controls a reclining movement or a lifting and reclining movement. The chair mechanism has a recline or lift-recline base, a seat and a back connected thereto. For additional functionality, a cradle assembly is provided in order to provide a cradling movement to the recline or lift-recline base. The cradle assembly can be provided by a system of standoffs and pivot connections, which can be direct or use links, or can be configured with a track and roller or slide system in order to achieve a desired cradling movement. A cradle actuator is connected between the cradle base and the recline or lift-recline base. A controller is provided that controls movement of the cradle actuator and preferably at least one recline or lift-recline actuator.

A zero gravity chaise chair includes a seat frame providing a head rest, a back, a bottom and a leg rest, a first bow member connected to one side of the seat frame, a second bow member connected to the other side of the seat frame, a first rolling guide connected to the first bow, a second rolling guide connected to the second bow, and a base connected to the first rolling guide and the second rolling guide. A motor may operate the first rolling guide to vary incline position of the seat frame. The motor may be algorithmically controlled to vary incline position of the seat frame such as to aid blood flow and minimize pressure points of a body positioned on the seat frame.

A universal powered rocking system is disclosed with the ability to change between different styles and size chairs and different rocking motion styles in a single embodiment and with a unique mounting method to easily interchanging the universal powered rocking system with different chairs by a single user or permanently replace the feet or foundation of a chair. A universal powered rocking system with the ability to rock the chair while allowing the chair to use its original functions such as a pawl ratchet latching system and stationary style chair which have no means of manually rocking. A universal powered rocking system that the chair is constantly balanced on the rocking apparatus for operations and eliminates the jerky motion inherent to the linear motion.

The adjusting mechanism serves for the setting of a restoring force acting on the backrest of a chair. A back support and a seat support are fastened on a support. A setting mechanism configured in the manner of scissors is provided for the weight setting. Said setting mechanism has two scissor arms which are connected to one another via a scissor pin. One of said scissor arms is formed by a spring element and is fastened with its front-side spring end on said support. The back spring end is fastened on said scissor pin. Said first scissor arm is connected to said back support in the manner of a connecting rod. An active lever length is defined between said scissor pin and a support pin about which said back support is mounted pivotably. A compact construction mode is achieved by the configuration of said scissor arm as a spring element.

Disclosed is a rocking chair for children, the rocking chair comprising a seat body (1), a supporting frame (2), a seat body limiting mechanism (3), a driving electric motor (5), a driving electric motor power output portion (6), and a rotating shaft (7). One end of the rotating shaft (7) is fixedly connected to the driving electric motor power output portion (6); the seat body (1) pivots around the other end of the rotating shaft (7); when the rotating shaft (7) rotates, the pivot point between the other end of the rotating shaft (7) and the seat body (1) moves relative to the fixed connection point between one end of the rotating shaft (7) and the driving electric motor power output portion (6) at a certain distance.

A furniture member may include a seat base, a seat assembly, a legrest platform, a drive rod, and a sequencing mechanism. The seat assembly is movable relative to the seat base. The legrest platform is coupled to the seat assembly. The drive rod is rotatable relative to the seat assembly, and rotation of the drive rod causes the seat assembly and the legrest platform to move. The sequencing mechanism includes a cam that is attached to the drive rod and a follower wheel that is attached to the seat assembly. The cam is configured to prevent the seat assembly from moving between a first recline position and a second recline position while the seat assembly moves between first and second tilt positions and while the legrest platform moves between first and second legrest positions.
