Abstract: A support pin matrix features a number of support pins densely two dimensionally arrayed and individually springily suspended such that a patient's body or body portions may be bedded directly on the support pins. The pins are preferably pressurized by a fluid pressure system for highly balanced contact pressure irrespective the individual pins' load deflection. A control system may provide a pin retraction wave of the support pins. A body resting surface accessing device may be moved across the support pin matrix and beneath a bedded patient in conjunction with the pin retraction wave. The resting surface accessing device may be configured for cleaning, drying, inspecting, irradiating, and/or massaging the body resting surface and/or for maintaining the body support pin matrix. A body carrying net may be retracted and raised in between the body support pins to lift the patient off the support pin matrix.

Abstract: Simple and rigid attachment of a child seat to a vehicle seat that is not degraded by the seat's cushioning is provided by a head rest fixture and two latch anchor fixtures combined by an operationally rigid frame structure. The frame structure has horizontal and vertical telescopically adjustable and lockable features to fit the system to varying dimensions of vehicle seats, head rests and child seat latch anchors. The child seat may be attached to the system via an object connecting structure that is combined with the frame structure via an in between damping element. The damping element opposes vehicle vibration eventually induced via the latch anchors on the operationally rigid frame from reaching the child seat.
