A battery pack to be used in motorized furniture is provided. The battery pack includes a plurality of polymer cells. The plurality of polymer cells is connected such that a threshold voltage is achieved. The battery pack also includes a motherboard coupled to the plurality of polymer cells. The motherboard is configured to monitor and regulate each cell in the plurality of cells, as well as the entire plurality of cells as a whole. The motherboard is further configured to regulate power flow throughout the plurality of cells such that more than two motors may operate at the same time.

Described and represented is a swivel fitting of seating furniture for adjusting a foot part from a retracted non-use position to an extended use position, with a mounting section for mounting on a chassis of the seating furniture, with a foot part section for mounting the foot part, with a foot part fitting for adjusting the foot part, wherein the foot part section has a front foot part connection swivel region in the use position and a rear foot part connection swivel region in the non-use position and a rear foot part connection tilt region in the use position and a front foot part connection tilt region in the non-use position, and wherein the foot part connection swivel region and the foot part connection tilt region are held via an adjusting lever and a control lever of the foot part fitting and are adjustable relative to one another. In order to better take into account the requirements placed on seating furniture and at the same time to manufacture the swivel fitting quite cost-effectively and use it reliably, it is provided that, during the entire adjustment from the non-use position to the use position and back, the adjusting lever and the control lever are arranged extending adjacent to one another in a common longitudinal section, which extends at least over 20 cm in the longitudinal direction of the swivel fitting, in a direction at least substantially perpendicular to the adjusting lever and/or to the control lever, in that the longitudinal section in the use position is arranged in front of the foot part connection tilt region in the non-use position and in that in the longitudinal section, the longitudinal extension of the adjusting lever is inclined by less than 15° with respect to the longitudinal extension of the control lever.

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.

The invention concerns a seat back (10) for an article of adjustable furniture comprising: a frame (12), at least one movable support section (14, 80) mounted for angular adjustment with respect to the frame; cam means (64) associated with one of the frame and the movable support section, cam follower means (58) associated with the other of the frame and the movable support section; actuator means (38) for moving said cam means or cam follower means associated with the frame with respect to the frame; whereby movement of said actuator means effects relative movement of said cam means with respect to said cam follower means and said relative movement effects angular adjustment of said support section relative to the frame to alter the seat back configuration. The present invention contemplates embodiments where the support section(s) comprise(s) an adjustable head rest (14), an adjustable lumbar support (80) or both.

A battery pack to be used in motorized furniture is provided. The battery pack includes a plurality of polymer cells. The plurality of polymer cells is connected such that a threshold voltage is achieved. The battery pack also includes a motherboard coupled to the plurality of polymer cells. The motherboard is configured to monitor and regulate each cell in the plurality of cells, as well as the entire plurality of cells as a whole. The motherboard is further configured to regulate power flow throughout the plurality of cells such that more than two motors may operate at the same time.

A linkage mechanism provides motion capabilities for various chair types. For example, a linkage mechanism includes a combination of links that facilitate ottoman extension/closing and backrest recline/incline. In addition, a linkage mechanism includes a compact design that is usable with hi-leg style chairs having a relatively low seat height. A seating unit with a motorized linkage mechanism is also provided.
