Abstract: Provided is a rocking chair having a seat body for a user to sit on, a support body for supporting the seat body from below, and a connecting mechanism provided between the seat body and the support body to move the seat body along a surface of a sphere centered on a base point above the seat body in response to an external force applied to the seat body. The connecting mechanism is composed of at least three sub-mechanisms, each of which has a circular track section on the support body side, a linear track section on the seat body side, and a connecting section to interlock their movements. The circular track section has a first traveling member and a first guiding member for traveling the first traveling member along a circle.

Abstract: An electronic furniture assembly of the present invention comprises: (i) a furniture assembly comprising: (A) a base (e.g., a seat portion), (B) at least one transverse member (e.g., a side, armrest or backrest), and (C) a coupler for selectively coupling the base to the transverse member; and (ii) artificial intelligence mounted within one or more portions of the furniture assembly. A speaker system can also be provided within the furniture assembly. The artificial intelligence (AI) can respond to and/or obey voice or other commands from a user. The AI can provide numerous functions, e.g., control of the speaker system within the furniture assembly, control of a recliner assembly that is part of the furniture system, or the like. The furniture assembly can include a selectively dockable speaker as part of a speaker system.

Abstract: A pivoting seat for a vehicle comprises a seat frame mountable to the vehicle, the seat frame including a pivot mount and a plurality of roller assemblies. A seat cushion assembly includes a seat cushion and a seat pan assembly supporting the seat cushion that is pivotably mounted to the pivot mount so that the seat cushion assembly is pivotable relative to the seat frame. The seat pan assembly includes a flat perimeter plate at an outer perimeter of the seat pan assembly, wherein each of the plurality of roller assemblies is arranged to contact the flat perimeter plate to support the seat cushion assembly while permitting pivoting of the seat cushion assembly relative to the seat frame.
