The present disclosure provides personal multimedia pods that convert from an enclosable premium theater system with seating for one or more users to an unenclosed chair and/or to an output audio/video device capable of connecting (e.g., wirelessly connecting) to other audio/visual equipment.

A system includes (i) a caster having a first stem portion with a first stem portion connection configuration; and (ii) a set of second stem portions having an identical second stem portion connection configuration but having outer dimensions differing from outer dimensions of another second stem portion in the set of second stem portions. The caster first stem portion connection configuration is adapted to mate with the second stem portion connection configuration of the second stem portions in the set of second stem portions.

A caster-wheel assembly (100; 200) for a vehicle, for example a wheelchair or powered wheelchair. The caster-wheel assembly comprises a switch (13) coupled to a housing (3); a castering wheel bracket (9) configured to receive a wheel (10), wherein the bracket is rotatably mounted about a caster pivot axis (28) with respect to the housing; biasing means (15) configured to provide a biasing force such that the wheel bracket is biased away from the housing; and a switch-actuating member (13) coupled to the wheel bracket such that movement of the wheel bracket towards the housing and against the biasing force causes the switch-actuating member to actuate the switch.

A castor structure includes a wheel support unit, an operation unit, a locking member, a directional member, a directional brake member, a bent elastic bar, and two resting members. The operation unit includes a drive shank formed with an annular groove which has an upper tapered face and a lower tapered face. The locking member includes a plurality of locking teeth. The directional brake member includes a plurality of directional toothed grooves. The elastic bar extends through the directional member and the annular groove. Thus, the elastic bar is stretched outward by the annular groove of the drive shank when the drive shank is moved downward, to provide a micro-adjustment effect, such that the directional toothed grooves of the directional brake member align with and exactly engage the locking teeth of the locking member.

A traction enhancement device and system for the rear wheel(s) of a wheelchair is provided. The traction enhancement system generally includes a tooth bar assembly that includes a plurality of spikes/teeth and an actuation assembly that includes a lever and swashplate. In use the lever can be moved into ground engaging position and the swashplate will contact and provide a force the tooth bar assembly causing the spikes to extend beyond the diameter of the wheelchair wheel and into engagement with the surface on which the chair is riding. The lever can be pulled out of ground engaging position and the swashplate will not cause the spikes to push outwardly beyond the diameter of the wheel.

A mobile support for seats (1) comprising a support bar (2) for the seats (1) which has feet (3) for resting and moving on a floor (4) of the installation site of the seats (1), wherein each foot (3) comprises a casing (5) which in the lower portion incorporates anti-slip blocks (6), while inside of said casing (5) an articulated structure (7) is arranged provided with wheels (8) which can tilt between an upper position wherein they stay above the bearing level of the anti-slip blocks (6) and a lower position wherein the wheels (8) stay with a bearing point below the bearing level of the anti-slip blocks (6) for movement by rolling on the ground (4).

An adjustable highchair. The adjustable highchair includes attachments for seating multiple children simultaneously for convenience when seating multiple children for feeding or other activities. An interchangeable chair assembly is attachable to a height adjustable stem. Each chair assembly includes one or more seats that support a child.

A caster includes a caster unit and at least one braking unit. The caster unit includes a receptacle, a wheel shaft disposed through the receptacle, a wheel assembly sleeved on the wheel shaft and rotatable relative to the receptacle, and a spring assembly which acts on the receptacle and the wheel shaft. The receptacle is movable relative to the wheel assembly in a vertical direction. The braking unit includes a surrounding teeth structure formed on the wheel assembly and having a hardness ranging from 65 to 75 on a Shore D scale, and a braking piece mounted on the receptacle. The braking piece includes a braking surface in form of a curve surface having a hardness ranging from 40 to 46 on the Shore D scale to be engaged with the surrounding teeth structure to retard rotation of the wheel assembly.

A tube assembly for a wheelchair frame comprises a tubular member having at least a first portion and a second portion angled relative to the first portion, the first portion configured to be in a seating zone of the wheelchair frame. The second portion is configured to be in a bottom front zone of the wheelchair frame, the tubular member defining a surface concavity in its peripheral surface delimited by a peripheral step, the surface concavity located at a junction between the first portion and the second portion of the tubular member. An interface member has a peripheral contour shaped and sized for the interface member to be received in the surface concavity and contoured at least partially by the peripheral step.

Work aid for a hairdresser, comprising a mobile frame on which frame a seat surface or at least one storage surface is arranged, wherein the frame comprises at least one castor being arranged rotatably in a fork head, and the castor being arranged on an axle, which axle is arranged insertably in each case with a first end portion on a first fork-shaped receptacle on the fork head and with a second end portion on a second fork-shaped receptacle on the fork head.
