Patent number: 7610917Abstract: The present invention is directed to a device that supports an individual's spine while the individual is in a forward bent position. The device includes a padded rest on which an individual could lean while working in a forward bent position and brackets for adjusting the angle, height, and position of the device. Since the individual leans against the rest, the stresses experienced in the lower, middle and upper back are substantially decreased. Reducing such stress decreases the pain experienced by the individual as well as extends his or her productive life.Type: GrantFiled: June 26, 2002Date of Patent: November 3, 2009Assignee: Pilgrim Innovations, LLCInventor: Kurt Klemm

Patent number: 7422016Abstract: The present invention is directed to a device which supports a user's spine while the user is in a forward bent position. The device includes a padded rest on which the user can lean while working in a forward bent position, and support structure enabling at least three of lateral adjustment of the rest along the projected perimeter of the work area, adjustment of the rest across the projected perimeter, height adjustment of the rest, and angular orientation of the rest. Since the user leans against the rest, the stresses otherwise normally experienced in the lower, middle and upper back are substantially attenuated. Attenuating such stress attenuates the pain experienced by the user as well as potentially extending his or her productive life.Type: GrantFiled: April 30, 2003Date of Patent: September 9, 2008Assignee: Pilgrim Innovations, LLCInventor: Kurt Klemm

Publication number: 20080054698Abstract: An anterior support device for use with a dental chair is disclosed which can provide support for a user's torso while he is in a forward leaning position. The anterior support device includes an adapter secured to the dental chair and a first pivotable connector secured to the adapter. A first movable rod engages the first pivotable connector. The support device further includes a padded rest against which a user can lean his torso and a second pivotable connector secured to the padded rest. A second movable rod engages the second pivotable connector and is also rotatably connected to the first movable rod. An actuating mechanism is connected to the first and second movable rods and enables the two rods to be locked in a set position to maintain the padded rest in a desired orientation relative to the dental chair.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 26, 2007Publication date: March 6, 2008Applicant: Pilgrim Innovations, LLCInventors: Kurt Klemm, Gregory Books, Greg Macheel

Publication number: 20030183236Abstract: The present invention is directed to a device that supports an individual's spine while the individual is in a forward bent position. The device includes a padded rest on which an individual could lean while working in a forward bent position and arms for adjusting the angle, height, and position of the device. Since the individual leans against the rest, the stresses experienced in the lower, middle and upper back are substantially decreased. Reducing such stress decreases the pain experienced by the individual as well as extends his or her productive life.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 30, 2003Publication date: October 2, 2003Inventor: Kurt Klemm
