BASE SEAT FOR BED, CHAIR OR SOFA
A base seat, which is adapted for being used with a bed, a chair or a sofa, includes a fixation base, a first rocking mount disposed above the fixation base and driven by a first drive device to reciprocatingly swing back and forth relative to the fixation base, a second rocking mount disposed above the first rocking mount and driven by a second drive device to reciprocatingly swing from side to side relative to the first rocking mount, and a swivel mount disposed above the second rocking mount and driven by a third drive device to rotate about an imaginary vertical axis. As such, the base seat can swing back and forth, swing from side to side, and rotate, independently or simultaneously.
ROCKING CHAIR MASSAGER
A rocking chair massager includes a frame support including a plurality of arcuate guide rails to support a plurality of massage rollers, the frame support further including a back area coupled to the frame support, the back area including at least one padded layer disposed over the plurality of massage rollers; a headrest coupled to the frame support; a base coupled to the frame support, the base comprising a bottom surface and an arcuate top surface, the base holding at least one electric motor to power the plurality of massage rollers, the frame support coupled to the arcuate top surface via the plurality of guide rails to enable rotation of the frame support with respect to the base to provide a fully reclined position; and a pair of curved bands coupled to the bottom surface of the base support, the pair of curved bands to enable rocking.
Recliner or lift and recliner chair with variable lift profile
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.
Exercise chair
A chair includes a movable part including a seat on which a user sits, a supporting part configured to support the movable part in such a way that the movable part can be moved to the right and to the left; and a restoration unit, which is a biasing member configured to bias the movable part toward the neutral position in the right and the left. The supporting part supports the movable part in such a way that the movable part descends as the movable part is away from the neutral position.
CHAIR AND SEAT SUPPORT MECHANISM
A chair includes a support mechanism 2 interposed between a leg 1 and a seat 3, wherein the support mechanism 2 is arranged below the seat 3, is configured to each individually and movably support the seat 3, at least at two locations in a front-rear direction and two locations in a left-right direction, along a predetermined trajectory, and the support mechanism 2 includes: a seat inclining mechanism Q or a seat inclining function configured to downwardly incline a tip side in a movement direction of the seat 3 in accordance with movement of the seat 3, and further includes: a center-of-gravity movement mechanism P or a return-force generation mechanism configured to generate a return force in a direction of returning the seat 3 having moved from a reference position (S) in a front-rear or left-right direction, to the reference position (S) by using a center-of-gravity movement.
LEISURE ROTARY SWING CHAIR
A leisure rotary swing chair including a chair frame, a base, a rotary assembly, a chute assembly, and a sliding rail assembly is provided. The base is connected to a bottom part of the chair frame to support the chair frame. The rotary assembly is rotatably connected to the base. The rotary assembly includes a fixed frame that rotates about the base and facilitates rotation of the chair frame. The chute assembly is disposed on the fixed frame of the rotary assembly. The sliding rail assembly is operably coupled to the chute assembly and disposed in the bottom part of the chair frame. The sliding rail assembly slides in the chute assembly to swing the chair frame back and forth.
MULTI-DIMENSIONAL ROTATION AND TRANSLATION APPARATUS
A multi-dimensional rotation and translation apparatus includes a base frame, a yaw frame mounted on the base frame to rotate about a yaw axis, a pitch frame mounted on the yaw frame to rotate about a pitch axis, a roll frame mounted on the pitch frame to rotate about a roll axis, and an occupant support slidably mounted on the roll frame. The base frame may be mounted to translate along a translation frame. The yaw, pitch, and roll axes intersect at a selected location relative to an occupant of the occupant support. A yaw motor is engaged between the base and yaw frames; a pitch motor is engaged between the yaw and pitch frames; and a roll motor is engaged between the pitch and roll frames. The motors are selectively activated to cause relative rotation of the respective frames.
RECLINER OR LIFT AND RECLINER CHAIR WITH VARIABLE LIFT PROFILE
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.
Zero Gravity Chaise Chair System and Method
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.
RECLINING COLLAPSIBLE CHAIR
A collapsible chair may be supported by a base. A slider receptacle may be mounted on the base and comprise two arched slider receiving areas. Each arched slider receiving area may be shaped as an arched guide, track or hollow cylinder suitable for receiving two arched sliders, where each arched slider may be inserted and adjustably moved by hand in one of the two arched slider receiving areas. Moving the arched sliders towards a front of the collapsible chair reclines the collapsible chair while moving the arched sliders towards a rear of the collapsible chair raises the collapsible chair. The collapsible chair may also have two back rest poles and two seat poles that create the frame of the collapsible chair. A material may be extended between distal ends of the two back rest poles and two seat poles to create a seating area of the collapsible chair.
