A reclinable chair is provided which has a seat rest, a backrest; a footrest; two side arm portions; and a reclining mechanism arranged to move at least one of the backrest and the footrest from a substantially upright position into a reclined position. The reclining mechanism is mounted to the side arm portions. The reclining mechanism includes an extendable member which acts on a footrest support to move the footrest from a substantially upright position to a reclined position. A linkage bar may be provided to connect the footrest support to a backrest support so that a single driving mechanism causes movement of the footrest into the reclined position and simultaneously causes movement of the backrest into a reclined position. Alternatively, the linkage bar may be omitted so that only the footrest is reclinable. Other advantageous features include adjustable substantially upright and reclined positions for the backrest, a tiltable seat rest, a tiltable headrest and a removable container for rubbish or other objects located under the seat rest.

The present invention relates to power motion furniture, power motion furniture systems and methods of using the same. In particular, the present invention provides systems and methods for controlling power motion furniture positioning comprising a physical alert (e.g., to indicate furniture component positioning).

A chair includes a seat, a backrest, and a leg rest. A tilt actuator and lift actuator tilt and lift the seat, respectively. A leg rest actuator extends and retracts the leg rest. A backrest actuator pivots the backrest with respect to the seat. A controller simultaneously controls the actuators such that they move sequentially between multiple predefined states. A control panel enables a user to automatically move the chair to any of the predefined states. Progress indicators are included that provide a visual indication of how far the chair has progressed to a commanded state. A controller controls the actuators such that they simultaneously arrive at each state. One or more functions on a control panel may also be automatically disabled and/or automatically enabled as the chair moves into or out of certain ones of the predefined states.

Dynamic furniture for supporting a seated or reclining user includes a base, an actuator assembly supported by the base, a front boom in circular orbital connection to a portion of the base, a rear boom in circular orbital connection to another portion of the base, a seat platform supported by the actuator assembly, and a back platform supported by the actuator assembly. The seat platform and the back platform are capable of remaining stationary relative to the actuator assembly while the actuator assembly moves relative to the base. The seat platform and the back platform are also capable of moving relative to the actuator assembly while the actuator assembly remains stationary relative to the base. The seat platform and the back platform are also capable of moving relative to the actuator assembly while the actuator assembly moves relative to the base.

The invention is a rotating or non-rotating reclining and/or declining chair having various reclining and/or declining mechanisms or systems allowing a greater range of recline and an easy way to recline and decline. Optionally, the chair can also have a reclining and declining backrest and leg rest and/or footrest and also optional storage compartments. The reclining and/or declining systems of the invention cause the plate or frame of the chair seat to recline or decline.

Powered recliner chairs, assemblies for use in the chairs, and components for use in the assemblies are provided. Electrical systems for use in the chairs, and components for use in the assemblies are provided. Control systems and methods for operating powered recliner chairs are also provided. Any given chair may be locally and/or remotely controlled.

An apparatus that supports a person in a variety of positions so that a tattoo artist can comfortably apply a tattoo to the skin of the supported person is herein disclosed. The apparatus can be articulated to cause a person's legs and arms to be optimally positioned and supported to receive a tattoo.

The invention is an electromechanical stretching apparatus of a convertible sofa, which consisting of a mechanical stretching apparatus and an electric actuator, the mechanical stretching apparatus being provided with an electrically-driven connecting rod, wherein, the electric actuator consists of a motor, a motor connecting tube, a motor movable slider, and a motor head fixing part, the motor adopted is a motor with a guide rail, the motor movable slider is installed on the guide rail of the motor, the motor head is rotationally connected through a second rotor shaft to the motor head fixing part fastened on the electrically-driven connecting rod, the motor connecting tube is connected to the motor movable slider through a first rotor shaft and the motor connecting tube is fastened on the mechanical stretching apparatus. The said motor connecting tube is fastened on a linkage part of the mechanical stretching apparatus. The said first rotor shaft and the second rotor shaft are both a bolt. By changing the electronic driving device, the invention increases automaticity and comfort of the convertible sofa, and improves installation, removal, maintenance, and operation efficiency of an electric actuator of the convertible sofa.
