An adjustable chair comprising a seat part, a seat back disposed along one side of the seat part, the seat back being configured for supporting at least a person's back or shoulders, a chair base configured for being placed on a floor, at least one adjustable chair feature including a motor capable of being selectively controlled and driven so as to adjust at least one of: the rotation or tilt of the seat part, a vertical distance between the seat back and the one side of the seat part, an angle position between the seat back and the seat part, and a distance between the chair base and the seat part.

A backrest portion supported, such as to be pivotable around an axis extending along its width direction center line, by a base, a left arm holding portion projecting forward from a left side portion of the backrest portion and supported, such as to be pivotable up and down around its base end portion, by the backrest portion, a right arm holding portion projecting forward from a right side portion of the backrest portion and supported, such as to be pivotable up and down around its base end portion, by the backrest portion, a left leg holding portion extending downward from a vicinity of a left side portion of a front edge of a seat portion at a front side of the base and supported, such as to be pivotable up and down around its upper end portion, by the base, and a right leg holding portion extending downward from a vicinity of a right side portion of the front edge of the seat portion at the front side of the base and supported, such as to be pivotable up and down around its upper end portion, by the base are included.

A furniture system includes a base, a first linkage and a second linkage. The base is configured to be disposed on a flat surface and to be connected to an article of furniture. The first linkage is connected to the base and configured to be connected to the article of furniture. The first linkage is configured to be actuated to cause the article of furniture to translate relative to the base. The second linkage is connected to the first linkage. The second linkage is biased into a locked state in which the second linkage prevents movement of the first linkage. The second linkage is configured to be actuated by an applied force into an unlocked state in which the second linkage allows movement of the first linkage (and the article of furniture to which the first linkage is configured to be connected).

A chair-type massage machine includes a main body on which a person to be treated is to be seated, a holding part at least part of which is placed inside a container recess to hold a first operation unit, and a moving mechanism for moving the holding part. The holding part is reciprocatably moved between a first position in which the first operation unit is contained in the container recess and a second position in which the first operation unit is exposed. The chair-type massage machine further includes a second operation unit for moving the holding part.

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.

The invention relates to a seating assembly (100) comprising a basic frame (101), a seat unit (102), and a back-support unit (103) wherein the seat unit and the back-support unit have a common pivoting axis (P) with respect to the frame at the level of the hip joint. Hence, based on human body like biomechanics and physiognomy, the seating assembly, particularly for ergonomic chairs or wheelchairs, provides a highly improved seating comfort, even with therapeutic effect.

A furniture member includes a base frame and a seat assembly supported by the base frame. The seat assembly includes a seat frame, a seat bottom, a seatback and a legrest. The legrest is movable relative to the base frame and seat frame between a retracted position and an extended position. The furniture member further includes a legrest mechanism attached to the legrest and the seat frame and driven by a drive rod configured to move the legrest between the retracted and extended positions in response to rotation of the drive rod. A wall-proximity mechanism is configured to translate the seat frame forward relative to the base frame. A trigger release mechanism is operable between a locked position in which a trigger limits rotation of the drive rod and a released position in which the trigger permits rotation of the drive rod.

An office chair comprises a seat element (3) mounted movably on a fixed support element (1) and a back support element (2). The arrangement simultaneously allows the seat element (3) to move and tilt backwards when the user leans backwards. The seat element (3) carries the chair seating panel (4) in such a way that when the user leans to a side, said chair seating panel (4) tilts to the same side according to the user's movement and independently of the chair's back element (2).
