An adjustable electric bed, comprising a bed frame, a plurality of mutually articulated bed boards and a driving motor for driving the bed boards to rise and fall, wherein the plurality of bed boards at least comprise a head bed board, a fixed bed board, a leg bed board and a foot bed board which are articulated successively, wherein the fixed bed board is fixed with the bed frame, the undersurface of the head bed board is fixedly provided with a head connector, wherein the driving motor at least comprises a head motor and a leg motor, two ends of the head motor are respectively articulated with the bed frame and the head connector, the undersurface of the leg bed board is fixedly provided with leg connector, two ends of the leg motor are respectively articulated with the bed frame and the leg connector.

Linear dual actuator for lying or sitting furniture having at least two sections (2,3), which with one end is rotatably embedded in the article of furniture and where each section (2,3) with an arm (5,7) secured to a pivot shaft (4,6) can be adjusted. The dual actuator comprises a housing (8) with a recess (10) in each end for each of the pivot shafts (4,6) on the article of furniture and where the arms (5,7) on the pivot shafts (4,6) after the dual actuator has been mounted on the article of furniture reach into the housing (8). Each end of the housing is furnished with a drive comprising an electric motor (11), which through a transmission (12) drives a spindle (13a) with a thrust element (18) having one end in engagement with the arm (5,7) for 'adjusting the sections (2,3). The electric motors (11) are located axis-aligned with the respective spindles (13a). Thus, the housing (8) can be constructed as a flat box with a relatively low height, as the only thing which should be considered in terms of the height is the thickness of the electric motors and not their length. As the housing (8) can be constructed as a flat box without bulges and indentations the mould is thus also relatively uncomplicated.

An adjustable base is provided that includes a fixed frame and an articulating frame connected to the fixed frame. The articulating frame includes an upper body frame pivotally connected to the upper section of the fixed frame, a seat frame pivotally connected to the upper body frame and movable along a central section of the fixed frame, and a leg frame pivotally connected to the fixed frame. An actuator is further included and has a first end connected to the seat frame adjacent to the leg frame and a second end that is connected to a linkage attached to the articulating frame. Upon activation of the actuator, the upper body frame is articulated upward and the seat frame moves linearly along the central section of the fixed frame toward the upper section of the fixed frame. Systems and methods for controlling an adjustable base assembly are further provided.

An embodiment of the invention is a terminal device controlling a body support apparatus capable of a first operation and a second operation; the terminal device includes a displayer and a controller; the displayer displays an operator controlling an operation of the body support apparatus; the controller switches between a first display format and a second display format based on an instruction from an outside; the first display format displays a first operator and a second operator in the displayer; the first operator controls the first operation; the second operator controls the second operation; and the second display format displays one of the first operator or the second operator in the displayer.

A recliner for variable adjustment between a substantially horizontal position and an ergonomic seating position includes right-hand and left-hand side parts, which are each made up of an outer side part and an inner side part. The recliner also comprises a backrest element and a seat-surface element, which are connected to one another for rotation via a first bearing rod, as well as a foot-part element, which is connected to the seat-surface element for rotation via a second bearing rod. The foot-part element is mounted between the right-hand and left-hand side parts via a third bearing rod. The first, second and third bearing rods are each mounted for translatory movement in a corresponding guide in the right-hand and left-hand side parts such that the backrest element, the seat-surface element and the foot-part element can be adjusted in a variable manner between a substantially horizontal position and an ergonomic seating position.

A backrest pivoting system can have a backrest and an actuator for pivoting the backrest. The actuator is pivotably connected to the backrest by a pivot defining a first pivot axis. The backrest can pivot about a guide member which defines a second pivot axis coaxial with the first pivot axis. A backrest pivoting system can include an actuator and a resilient member mounted in series with the actuator. There is also provided an extendable user support assembly comprising a lower body support panel and a core support panel supported by a frame, the lower body support panel being translatable relative to the frame such that an opening is created between the lower body support panel and the core support panel when the lower body support panel is translated away from the core support panel. There is also provided a method for placing a bed in a vascular position.

A smart adjustable bed system combines an adjustable bed, a smart hub, a server, and smart devices to provide a system for controlling the raising and lowering of the adjustable bed. The smart hub acts as a gateway interconnecting the smart adjustable bed and a remote server capable of powerful voice recognition and artificial intelligence at a shared price. The system includes methods of using the system to allow an additional smart device such as a tablet computer to act as a remote control for the smart adjustable bed. The system further enables voice controls to be used to raise and lower the adjustable bed. Lastly, the voice recognition of the smart hub can be used to detect snoring and to send a signal to the adjustable bed to raise the bed to a position until the user reaches a position where snoring stops.
