POWERED CHAIRS FOR PUBLIC VENUES, ASSEMBLIES FOR USE IN POWERED CHAIRS, AND COMPONENTS FOR USE IN ASSEMBLIES FOR USE IN POWERED CHAIRS
A remotely controlled powered chair may include a support frame, a seat pivotally mounted on the support frame, an rotary actuator mounted between the support frame and the seat to drive the seat to move relative to the support frame, a backrest pivotally mounted on the seat, and a linear actuator mounted between the seat and the backrest to drive the backrest to move relative to the seat. Thus, the rotary actuator may be controlled by an electrically control device to drive the seat to pivot relative to the support frame reciprocally in a pendulum manner so that the seat is pivoted relative to the support frame automatically. In addition, the linear actuator may be controlled by the electrically control device to adjust the inclined angle of the backrest so as to provide a comfortable sensation to the user. A remotely controlled powered chair may include a base assembly. A chair frame is supported on the base assembly. An actuator mechanism may communicate with the base assembly and the chair frame, and is operable to actuate the chair frame between first and second positions.

ELECTRIC HOUSEHOLD APPLIANCE WITH TOUCH PROTECTION FOR ELECTRICAL CONTACTS
An electrical household appliance includes electrical contacts. The electrical household appliance includes accesses to the electrical contacts for establishing an electrical plug connection.
Locking electrical device
An electrical receptacle including a body having a plurality of electrical connections, a device face connected to the body and movable with respect to the body, a plurality of electrical plug contacts positioned behind the device face, and wherein the electrical plug contacts retain an electrical plug prong at a first tension when the device face is in a first position and the electrical plug contacts retain the electrical plug prong at a second tension when the device face is in a second position.
Powered wall plate with plug prongs
A powered wall plate comprising a wall plate, at least two electrical plug prongs, an electrical circuit, and an electrical feature. The wall plate has a front surface opposite a rear surface and at least one opening sized to expose a first electrical receptacle of an electrical device. The at least two electrical plug prongs originate within the wall plate and extend rearward from the rear surface, and are configured to removably mate with a second electrical receptacle of the electrical device. The electrical circuit is located between the front surface and the rear surface. The electrical feature is exposed on the wall plate and is configured to receive power from the at least two electrical plug prongs through the electrical circuit. The wall plate may have a profile with a first thickness and a second thickness. The second thickness may be less than three times the first thickness.
Common Point Ground Fault Detector
A common point ground fault detector monitors an outlet. The detector includes a power connection having at least hot, neutral, and ground leads for connecting to the outlet, a bench ground connector, an earth ground, to which both the ground lead and the bench ground connector are electrically connection, and through which the bench ground connector discharges electrostatic charge, and a switch electrically coupled between the earth ground and the bench ground connector. The switch enables an electrical connection between the earth ground and the bench ground connector in response to a normal operating condition of the outlet, and the switch disables the electrical connection between the earth ground and the bench ground connector in response to an abnormal operating condition of the outlet.
