The invention relates to an analyzing unit (9′) for connecting to at least one sensor (12) which can be coupled to sleeping or reclining furniture in order to detect vibrations, movement, and/or sound. The analyzing unit (9′) is designed to process and analyze the signals of the at least one sensor (12) and detect physiological parameters (P) of a person using the sleeping or reclining furniture, and the analyzing unit (9′) is designed to transmit data to or exchange data with at least one external component. The invention further relates to a method for analyzing signals of at least one such sensor (12) and to sleeping or reclining furniture, in particular a bed (1), comprising at least one such sensor (12).

The invention relates to an electric motor furniture drive for sleeping or reclining furniture, comprising a number of adjusting motors (7, 8) for moving at least one movable furniture component relative to an additional furniture component by means of an electric motor and comprising a manual operation unit (10) for operating the adjusting motors (7, 8). The electric motor furniture drive is characterized in that at least one sensor (12) is provided for detecting vibrations and/or sound, said sensor being coupleable to the sleeping furniture, and an analyzing unit is provided which is connected to the at least one sensor (12). The analyzing unit is designed to process and analyze the signals of the at least one sensor (12) and detect physiological parameters of a person using the sleeping or reclining furniture.

An examination table that can be used in other places than a hospital is provided. A portable examination table comprises a seat part for supporting a bottom of a patient, an angle-changeable backrest part for supporting a back of the patient, a pair of angle-changeable arm parts, abutting parts configured to be raised or lowered when the angle of the arm parts relative to the seat part is changed and abut the back of the knees of the patient, and link parts configured to link the arm parts to the backrest part and change the angle of the arm parts, and is configured to convert between an end-sitting positioning state, a lithotomy positioning state, and a folded state.

A sofa bed includes: a plurality of elastic modules; a body frame having slide rails arranged thereon; and armrest frames disposed at two sides of the body frame along a longitudinal direction of the body frame, respectively. The slide rails on the body frame are configured to enable the plurality of elastic modules to be mounted on the body frame from an outside of the body frame and to slide thereon to predetermined mounting positions, such that the body frame at one side facing the user is provided with the plurality of elastic modules. The angle between the seat and the backrest portion can be locked for improved operation. The elastic modules, which can be easily installed and uninstalled, can improve the comfort of the sofa bed.

A convertible furniture system or futon includes a convertible frame assembly that is mountable in an interior space and is deployable between a bench configuration and a flat, bed configuration. The frame assembly includes a back frame and a bottom frame that are pivotably coupled together and coordinate to form either the bench configuration that provides a user an upright seat or the bed configuration that provides the user a flat, substantially horizontal bed to lie down on. A user can maneuver the system from the bench configuration into the bed configuration and vice versa. The system may be installed inside of various interior living quarters, including inside of mobile vehicles. The system includes various support elements mounted to the interior space, the support element may be selectively engaged to support the system in the bed or bench configurations and during deployment and stowage of the system.

An adjustable reclining chair having zero wall clearance has a frame and an adjustable support platform with a plurality of articulated support sections pivotally mounted with respect to one another for relative angular adjustment. An actuator means for effecting co-ordinated movement of said support sections to reconfigure the chair between a seated position and a sleeping position in which the articulated supporting sections lie in a substantially horizontal plane (H). One of the articulated support sections is a seat support inclined relative to the horizontal plane when the chair is in the seated position and substantially in the horizontal plane when the chair is in the sleeping position.

Disclosed herein is a portable bed having particular application for use in an aircraft. The aircraft bed includes a folding frame and a folding mattress to lay on and be supported by the folding frame. The folding frame includes a plurality of upstanding panels that are hingedly coupled side-to-side one another so that the frame can be collapsed from an expanded unfolded configuration at which to support the mattress to a compact folded configuration at which to be suitable for storage. In one embodiment, the folding frame is located between a pair of aircraft seats that face one another, and the mattress extends between the seat portions of the facing seats. In another embodiment, the folding frame is located between an aircraft seat and an upstanding structure (e.g., a wall) of the aircraft, and the mattress extends between the reclined back portion of the aircraft seat and the upstanding structure by way of the folding frame.

A convertible sofa bed system positionable on a floor. The convertible sofa bed system includes a back support assembly having a frame, and a back cushion assembly connected with the back support assembly and movable between a raised condition and a lowered condition thereof. The system also includes one or more body modules secured to the frame. The body module includes an at least partially planar top surface positionable at a predetermined elevation above the floor. The body module is formed to cooperate with the back cushion assembly in the raised condition to define a seating configuration, and to cooperate with the back cushion assembly in the lowered condition to define a sleeping configuration.

Seat frame for a seat arrangement of a vehicle having a seat substructure, a seat surface supporting structure, an attachment structure and a backrest supporting structure. The seat substructure is arranged on a vehicle floor and the seat surface supporting structure fastens a seat surface element of the seat arrangement thereto. The seat surface supporting structure is movable on the seat substructure and/or on the attachment structure. The backrest supporting structure fastens a backrest element of the seat arrangement thereto. The backrest supporting structure is pivotably movable on the seat substructure. The backrest supporting structure is pivotable out of a first use position of the seat frame into a second use position of the seat frame. In the second use position, the backrest supporting structure acts on the seat surface supporting structure and forces the seat surface supporting structure out of the first use position into the second use position.
