Sofa bed
A sofa bed including a support structure configured to be placed on the floor, a main seat base arranged on the support structure, a front foldable leg rest fixed to the structure by a first articulation, and a cushioned flexible body that covers the main base and the leg rest is disclosed herein. The first articulation includes parallel mechanisms configured to provide a movement on a vertical plane with a combined movement of folding and a forward motion of the leg rest, the leg rest includes at least one lower leg, the cushioned flexible body includes machined parts and an upper layer with a greater elasticity than the rest of the cushioned body in an area that coincides with the first articulation. The sofa bed further includes foldable support elements located under the cushioned body in an area coinciding with the at least one machined part.
Furniture member having circuit board assembly
A furniture member may include a base frame, a seat assembly, a motor, and a circuit board assembly. The seat assembly is supported by the base frame. The motor is operable to drive at least one component of the seat assembly. The circuit board assembly includes a circuit board and an enclosure. The circuit board is housed within the enclosure and is in communication with the motor. The enclosure may include a body, a first clip attached to the body, and a second clip attached to the body. The first and second clips may be resiliently flexible and may removably engage a beam of the seat assembly.
Leg extension for procedure chair
An extension assembly for a procedure chair leg pad includes a frame and a leg pad assembly. The frame attaches to deployment tracks of the procedure chair through frame arms and includes a slot(s). At least one slot includes detents configured to receive and selectively restrain a guide member. The leg pad assembly is disposed in proximity to the frame and includes a guide member(s) extending therefrom, through a slot and movable relative to the frame. The leg pad assembly may be moved forward and rearward by manual adjustment, moving the guide members through their respective slots. Detents along the slots restrain the guide member at predefined positions until sufficient force is applied to overcome the geometry of the detent. A detent(s) is configured to prevent vertical movement of the leg pad assembly when stowed vertically, but still allow movement in a deployed position.
Apparatus for assistance in putting on and removing footwear
Apparatus to facilitate putting on and removing footwear. The apparatus may be swivelably coupled to a chair where handles are provided to rotate an arm which is coupled to a footrest. By moving the arm, which is at seat level, the footrest is movable between a stowed position and an operative, forward position.
Reclining armchair with lifting seat and extending footrest
An armchair comprising a seat chassis supported on a support chassis by a pair of support columns, a chair back structure pivotally attached to a rear end of the seat chassis and to the support chassis, and a leg support structure pivotally attached to a front end of the seat chassis and connected to a beam, wherein the beam is attached the chair back structure. A first actuating device is mounted to the chair back, where a protracting end of the first actuating device is connected to the seat chassis. The armchair further comprises a second actuating device mounted to the support chassis, a footrest connected to a protracting end of the second actuating device, a third actuating device attached to the seat chassis, and a seating structure connected to a protracting end of the third actuating device and mounted above the seat chassis, wherein the seating structure includes an operative position projecting upwards and forwards by the third actuating device at a tilting angle from the seat chassis.
Sleep system
A furniture system (600) includes an inner back (620) and a conversion mechanism (800) which operates so as to move the inner back (620) from a sofa configuration to a sleep configuration. A table assembly (700) is also provided which utilizes a table mechanism (710) so as to permit a user to manually adjust the height of a table top (701) among three functional positions.
Methods and apparatus for variable user position seating
A system for seated support. A seat rest may be configured to support the posterior of a user, a leg rest may be configured to support a leg portion of a user, and a combined translate-and-cant reposition carriage may be configured to simultaneously translate and cant the position of the leg rest in relation to the position of the seat rest. The seat rest, leg rest, and combined translate-and-cant reposition carriage may comprise an equipoise balancer for a user. The equipoise balancer may be free-floating, lockable, partially lockable, seat-rest driven, or leg rest driven in various embodiments.
Rotation driven footrest translation
A footrest system is disclosed. The footrest cushion is supported by a frame that is hinge-mounted onto the front of a chair frame. The rotation of the footrest frame by a user creates, through a mechanical system, rotation in a spool. The spool is wound with first and second lines, each being wound in the reverse direction as the other. The lines are connected through rerouting systems and then anchored to the translating member such that they pull the member out upon a deployment, and return the member back in when the footrest is retracted.
Collapsible and Portable Chair with Independently Movable Leg Rest
A collapsible and portable reclining chair includes a leg assembly, a seat assembly defining a seat support and a back support, and an independently movable leg rest support. Such a chair can be folded and unfolded between a set-up condition of the chair for use, and a collapsed and folded condition of the chair for transport and/or storage. In use, the seat assembly can be shifted between an upright position and a reclined position where the back support angularly pivots backwards. In use, the leg rest support can be pivotally shifted from a lowered position to an upright position relative to the seating assemblyoperating similar to a conventional LA-Z-BOY recliner using a handle disposed on a side of the chair frame that is moved by the user to effectuate movement of the leg rest support independent of any reclining adjustment of the seat assembly.
Furniture Member Having Circuit Board Assembly
A furniture member may include a base frame, a seat assembly, a motor, and a circuit board assembly. The seat assembly is supported by the base frame. The motor is operable to drive at least one component of the seat assembly. The circuit board assembly includes a circuit board and an enclosure. The circuit board is housed within the enclosure and is in communication with the motor. The enclosure may include a body, a first clip attached to the body, and a second clip attached to the body. The first and second clips may be resiliently flexible and may removably engage a beam of the seat assembly.
