摘要:
A novel method of spinal catheter insertion via seated lumbar puncture using a surgical chair in which the patient is forward-facing is provided. The chair provides a stable, safe platform for patients, and reduces the need for additional personnel to maintain the patient's position. The seated position provides for ergonomically desirable alignment of the spinous processes, aiding in the successful lumbar puncture and spinal catheter insertion.

A reclining passenger seat, including a seat frame for being attached to a supporting deck, a seat bottom carried by the seat frame, and a seat back carried by the seat frame and moveable with the seat bottom from and between the upright and sleep positions. A legrest assembly is mounted adjacent a forward end of the seat bottom for being selectively extended generally downwardly and outwardly from the seat bottom for supporting the legs of the passenger. An armrest assembly is carried by the seat frame and includes an armrest moveable between a horizontal position with an upper support surface supporting a forearm of the seat occupant in the upright seat position and a forwardly-inclined, lowered position wherein the upper support surface is aligned with an upper surface of the seat bottom for providing a wider sleeping surface for the seat occupant when the seat is in the fully-reclined sleep position.

A leg rest and a seat back are rotatably mounted at the front and rear of a seat cushion of a passenger seat respectively, and a footrest is mounted on the leg rest in such a manner that it can be extended and retracted. Adjustment of the angle of the seat back and the leg rest, and positioning of the footrest are performed using a seat back actuator, a leg rest actuator, and a footrest actuator. A proximity sensor is provided at the end of the footrest, wherein, when the proximity sensor detects that the footrest is approaching an obstacle, downward rotation of the leg rest is stopped and the footrest is moved backward. When the leg rest or the footrest is moved, the interference of the obstacle such as a baggage with the footrest can reliably be prevented.

A kneeling tray, for use by a worker when kneeling upon a ground surface, comprising a housing having a bottom which is positionable on the ground surface and a top having a cushion. A heating element is located within the cushion for warming the cushion. The heating element may be powered by line current and by rechargeable battery packs. The rechargeable battery packs may be recharged when the tray is connected to a line power source.

A footrest is fastened via a telescopically extendable connecting element to an office chair, in particular to an office chair having a backrest that can be tilted into a rest position. This results in an especially comfortable and ergonomic seating position, and in particular a situation in which the office chair is pushed away from the footrest when the footrest is not needed.

A mechanic's body support including first and second horizontally-oriented and spaced-apart base rails and first and second spaced-apart support rails. Each of the support rails has one end connected to a respective one of the first and second base rails. Each support rail also extends upwardly from and is in vertical alignment with the base rails for supporting a mechanic as he kneels in an elevated position over the engine compartment of a motor vehicle. A chest pad and a knee pad are mounted in spaced-apart relation between the support rails for securing the support rails in a fixed, spaced-apart relation, and for supporting the chest and knees of the mechanic while in the kneeling position, thus allowing the skeletal structure of the body to support the weight, rather than the back and leg muscles.

A motor-driven footrest device of a seat, comprises a footrest; an expanding mechanism having one end equipped with the footrest, the expanding mechanism being movable to assume a shrunk condition wherein the footrest is received in an opening formed in a seat cushion of the seat and an expanded condition wherein the footrest is projected from the opening to permit the feet of a seat occupant to be put thereon; an electric drive unit connected to the other end of the expanding mechanism to move the same to assume the shrunk condition and the expanded condition by the force of an electric power; and a mounting structure secured to a base structure of the seat, the mounting structure carrying both of the expanding mechanism and the electric drive unit.
摘要:
A bench that is adjustable between a folded configuration and an unfolded configuration. The bench includes a frame, a leg, and a pivot member coupled between the frame and the leg. The leg and the frame are configured to pivot about the pivot member. The bench also includes a slidable member coupled to the frame and configured to prevent relative movement between the frame and the leg when the slidable member is in a locked position. The slidable member is configured to disengage the frame to allow relative movement between the leg and the frame when the slidable member is in an unlocked position. The bench also includes a biasing mechanism positioned between the slidable member and the pivot member. The biasing mechanism is coupled to the slidable bar and configured to maintain the slidable bar at the locked position when the bench is in the unfolded configuration.

A support device for kneel-down work comprises two spaced support members each support member comprising an end plate and an extension member including an end securely connected to the end plate. A knee plate comprises an end pivotally connected to the other end of the extension member of each support member. A seat frame comprises a seat and two parallel connecting plates respectively extending from a side of the seat. Each connecting plate is pivotally connected to an associated one of the end plates. The knee plate and the end plates are in contact with the ground and the seat provides a support for a hip of the user when a leg of the user wearing the support device kneels down.
摘要:
An articulated footrest assembly for a seating unit comprises a footrest member moveable between a retracted position and an extended position, a telescopic linkage for extending and retracting the footrest member between the retracted and extended positions, and an actuating linkage. The footrest member comprises proximal and distal portions while the telescopic linkage comprises a stationary support member mounted to the seating unit, a first telescoping arm, and a second telescoping arm. The first telescoping arm has a distal end connected to the proximal portion of the footrest member through a first pivot. The second telescoping arm has a distal end connected to the footrest member between the proximal and distal portions through a second pivot spaced apart from the first pivot. The actuating linkage comprises a first linkage portion interposed between the stationary support member and the first telescoping arm and a second linkage portion interposed between the first and second telescoping arms. When the actuating linkage is operated, the first linkage portion moves the first telescoping arm in one of forward and rearward directions relative to the stationary support member and the second linkage portion moves the second telescoping arm in the same direction relative to the first telescoping arm thereby simultaneously moving the footrest member in that direction and pivoting the footrest member about the first and second pivots.
