Dynamic furniture for supporting a seated or reclining user includes a base, an actuator assembly supported by the base, a front boom in circular orbital connection to a portion of the base, a rear boom in circular orbital connection to another portion of the base, a seat platform supported by the actuator assembly, and a back platform supported by the actuator assembly. The seat platform and the back platform are capable of remaining stationary relative to the actuator assembly while the actuator assembly moves relative to the base. The seat platform and the back platform are also capable of moving relative to the actuator assembly while the actuator assembly remains stationary relative to the base. The seat platform and the back platform are also capable of moving relative to the actuator assembly while the actuator assembly moves relative to the base.

An adjustment apparatus for a wheelchair back that can be used with various backs, that can be adjusted in a plurality of ways using a single adjustment point, and that can be adjusted without the use of tools. In another aspect, includes a support mechanism for mounting an adjustment apparatus for a wheelchair back that can be engaged using gravity, that provides at least one support point, and that can be utilized without the use of tools. Still another aspect of the wheelchair back assembly includes a mounting clamp that is simple in construction, that provides at least one support point, and that can be easily disassembled and adjusted to accommodate upright frame members of various diameters without the use of a tool.

The stand-up unit comprises a support a stand-up frame, which is articulated on the support and has a seat carrier carrying a seat, and a backrest carrier carrying a backrest. Furthermore, a first lever parallelogram is provided in order to maintain the backrest upright in any position. The backrest can be displaced by the first lever parallelogram by means of a rod, in order to ensure that no undesirable relative movement occurs between the backrest and the back of the user when getting up or sitting down. A second lever parallelogram controls the movement of the seat when getting up and sitting down to ensure that no relative movement develops between the seat and buttocks of the user. The stand-up unit may be provided with a base to serve as a chair, particularly a therapy chair. The stand-up unit, however, may also serve as a stand-up wheelchair, when connected to an undercarriage. Spring joint elements support the standing up.

An adjustable chair assembly comprising a frame, a seat assembly, a back assembly and at least one of a seat space-filling element and a back space-filling element. The seat assembly extends along a seat plane and comprises a first seat element and a second seat element adjustably positionable with respect to one another along the seat plane and together defining a support surface of the seat assembly. The back assembly extends along a back plane and comprises a first back element and a second back element adjustably positionable with respect to one another along the back plane and together defining a support surface of the back assembly. A central gap is defined in at least one of the support surfaces and the at least one of the seat space-filling element and the back space-filling element is removably insertable in the central gap of the corresponding support surface.

Techniques are disclosed to enable a mobility device for a toddler with gross motor disabilities. The mobility device has a skid plate of substantially rigid material having a front end and a back end and two rigid side plates. The mobility device also has two wheels rotatably attached to the rigid side plates by way of first and second axles. Additionally, it has a seat for supporting an underside of the child in an upright, seated position and an adjustable leg holder that moves up and down to support the child's legs and to keep the child in the upright, seated position. An adjustable backrest is provided to position the child an appropriate distance from the leg holder so that the leg holder holds the appropriate part of the child's legs.

The invention discloses a care bed including a bed frame and a wheelchair. A head panel, a tail panel, a foldable first lateral connecting portion and a second lateral connecting portion of the bed frame constitute an accommodating space of the bed frame. The bed frame has a notch formed at the folded first lateral connecting portion. The wheelchair is moved by the carriage base into the accommodating space through the notch. The backrest, the first armrest, the second armrest, the leg-rest and the footrest of the wheelchair are regulated into a co-plane with the seat to constitute a mattress. The mattress fits the accommodating space of the bed frame.

The electric vehicle according to the present invention includes a moving base capable of traveling by electromotive drive, a seat including a seating part having a seating surface and disposed on the moving base, and a back plate used as a seat back corresponding to the seating surface and disposed on the moving base, the seat can move between a seating position with the seating surface facing upward, and a retracting position with the seating part retracted forward from the seating position, the back plate can be moved between a standing-up position located rearward and upward with respect to the seating part of the seat when at the seating position, and a lying-down position located forward of the standing-up position, and the back plate includes a baggage carrier formed on a back surface facing upward when at the lying-down position and allowing baggage to be placed thereon.

A patient support apparatus, such as a bed, cot, recliner, operating table, stretcher, or the like, includes a control panel with multiple controls for controlling functions of the patient support apparatus. A control system disables at least a first control and changes an illumination state of a backlight when the patient support apparatus is in a particular state. In some embodiments, the particular state is the arming of an exit detection system and/or the deactivation of a brake on the patient support apparatus. The particular state may also or alternatively be tied to a particular mode of the patient support apparatus, such as a diagnostic mode, a maintenance mode, and/or a normal mode. The control system may also never illuminate a first icon on the patient support apparatus if it was initially configured in a particular manner, such as being intended for sale in a particular geographic market.

Provided is a robot. The robot includes a main body provided with a traveling wheel, a seat disposed above the main body, a backrest spaced apart from the seat, a link configured to connect the seat to the backrest, a first tilting mechanism embedded in the seat, the first tilting mechanism being configured to tilt the link with respect to the seat, and a second tilting mechanism embedded in the backrest, the second tilting mechanism being configured to tilt the backrest with respect to the link.
