The provided is a magnetically-driven control method for a smart rocking chair. The magnetically-driven control method for a smart rocking chair includes the following steps: S1: starting-up: turning on a state detection and control system, and selecting a gear; S2: gear detection; S3: rocking starting: allowing the state detection and control system to power on an electromagnetic drive mechanism; and S4: comprehensive data processing and condition determination: if a real-time angle uL of a rocking chair is less than a preset rocking angle of the selected gear, proceeding cyclic excited rocking; or otherwise, proceeding force-applied free rocking. The magnetically-driven control method solves the problem that the prior art has the stiff action, and cannot simulate natural rocking under an action of the gravity to cause the poor comfort and affect the user experience.

A glider seating unit with a selectively powered gliding motion is provided. The glider seating unit includes a base frame and a glide assembly movably connected to the base frame.

A swing mechanism and an electric recliner are provided. The swing mechanism includes: a pedestal; a swing support frame, located on the pedestal and including left and right support sheets, where both ends of an upper part of the left and right support sheets are respectively provided with a suspension point A and a suspension point B; two iron frame bearing frames, respectively located at outer sides of the left and right support sheets and each including a first rocking arm and a second rocking arm; and Upper ends of the first rocking arm and the second rocking arm are respectively hinged to the suspension point A and the suspension point B of the corresponding support sheet, and lower ends of the first rocking arm and the second rocking arm are respectively hinged to a hinging position C and a hinging position D of a corresponding bearing piece.

The present invention relates to apparatus 1 for supporting and rocking a person, the apparatus comprising a base 2, a platform 3 that is configured to support a person thereon in a prone position, and a mounting system 4 that mounts the platform to the base and enables the platform to be rocked relative to the base. The mounting system 4 comprises at least one linkage mechanism 60 including a plurality of rigid linkage members that are pivotally connected to each other, to the base 2 and to the platform 3. In particular, the linkage mechanism 4 includes a first linkage member 61, a second linkage member 62 and a third linkage member 63, each of which has a first end and a second end. The first end 61a of the first linkage member 61 is pivotally connected to a first one of the base 2 and the platform 3 at a first pivot point P1. The first end 62a of the second linkage member 62 is also pivotally connected to the first one of the base 2 and the platform 3 at a second pivot point P2 spaced apart from the first pivot point P1. The first end 63a of the third linkage member 63 is pivotally connected to the second end 61b of the first linkage member 61 at a third pivot point P3 and pivotally connected to the second end 62b of the second linkage member 62 at a fourth pivot point P4 spaced apart from the third pivot point P3, and the second end 63b of the third linkage member 63 is pivotally connected to a second one of the base 2 and the platform 3 at a fifth pivot point P5.

The massage machine frame of the present invention comprises a base and a seating unit which is supported to the base in such a way that the seating unit is movable relative to the base, wherein one of the base and the seating unit has a guide rail and the other has a mating portion cooperating with the guide rail, the guide rail including: a first guide rail in the shape of a circular arc projecting forward; and a second guide rail in the shape of a circular arc projecting rearward and having a different center of circle than the first guide rail, the mating portion including: a first mating portion switchable from moving on the first guide rail to moving on the second guide rail; and a second mating portion which moves on the second guide rail.

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.

A powered rocking or gliding furniture piece includes a base frame and a movable furniture assembly. The movable furniture assembly of the powered rocking or gliding furniture piece is configured to rock or glide about the base frame. A powered motor or linear actuator is affixed to the base frame. A connecting member is on the movable furniture assembly of the powered rocking or gliding furniture piece. Linkage is connected between the powered motor or linear actuator affixed to the base frame and the connecting member on the movable furniture assembly of the powered rocking or gliding furniture piece.
