Abstract: The safety barrier for aircraft seats is configured for use with a commercial aircraft. The commercial aircraft further comprises one or more seats. Each individual seat selected from the one or more seats further comprises an armrest. The individual seat is configured for use with by a client. The client sits in the individual seat. The safety barrier for aircraft seats is configured for use with the armrest. The safety barrier for aircraft seats comprises a knee shield and elbow parapet. The knee shield attaches to the armrest. The elbow parapet attaches to the armrest. The knee shield is a rotating barrier. The knee shield forms a barrier that prevents a knee of the client from entering the aisle of the commercial aircraft. The elbow parapet is a stationary barrier. The elbow parapet prevents the elbow of the client from entering the aisle of the commercial aircraft.

Abstract: An electrically powered wheelchair has a main frame, a seat frame, a seat back frame, a footrest frame, a wheel section, and an obstacle detection sensor. The seat frame is disposed above the main frame, and supports a sitting seat which supports buttocks and thighs of a user. The seat back frame is disposed behind the main frame, and supports a backrest which supports a back of the user. The footrest frame is disposed in front of the main frame, and supports a footrest which supports feet of the user. The wheel section movably supports the main frame. The obstacle detection sensor is installed in front of the seat frame, and detects an obstacle.

Abstract: In an aspect, a leg support for a vehicle occupant is provided, and includes a leg support base and a leg engagement member. The leg support base is connected (or is connectable) to a center console of the vehicle. The leg engagement member may be integral with the leg support base or may be extendable from the leg support base. The leg engagement member is configured to engage the laterally outer face of a lower leg of a vehicle occupant. The leg engagement member has a leg engagement surface that has a lower edge and an upper edge. The lower edge is positioned to engage the lower leg of the vehicle occupant above the lateral malleolus of the fibula of the vehicle occupant. The upper edge is positioned to engage the lower leg of the vehicle occupant above a midpoint of the fibula and below the superior epiphysis of the fibula.

Abstract: A seating device for use in a liquid, the seating device including a body having a closed first end, an open second end and a wall running between the closed first end and the open second end, the closed first end and the wall defining a cavity that is accessible through the open second end, the closed first end defining a seating surface having one or more holes formed therethrough, the one or more holes enabling flow of a fluid therethrough as the seating device is submerged in the liquid.

Abstract: An adjustable footrest includes a pair of side members connected edge to edge by a plurality of hinges. A plurality of padded semi-circular apertures, located along the connected edges between the hinges, allows a user to rest his feet and legs in an elevated position, as required by certain medical conditions. The level of elevation is incrementally adjusted by widening or narrowing and subsequently locking the apex angle. An additional means of incremental elevation adjustment includes a plurality of telescoping legs and floor pads.

Abstract: The invention relates to a dimensionally-stable leg part that can be allocated to a seat device, which leg part is respectively allocated to a left or right upper leg of a person from the knee to the hip and is in close contact with the upper leg form, wherein the leg part contacts flat to the outside of the hip, on the underside of the thigh at least on the distal end, and at least inside and outside on the knee. The invention is further directed to seat devices, particularly vehicle seat devices and vehicle seat extraction systems having said leg parts. In addition, the invention relates to a seat device, preferably a vehicle seat device or vehicle seat extraction system having a U-shaped support device for the back underneath the shoulder having lateral support for the chest, which solely surrounds the adjacent back and chest.

Abstract: A device, which is removably attachable to a wheelchair. The device comprises a footrest having a top section and a bottom section, which is spaced apart from the top section. The distance between the top and bottom sections may be spanned by a facing, braces or other distance spanning support structures. Attached to the footrest is a cushion support. Preferably the cushion support is attached to the top section of the footrest, but alternately may be attached to the bottom section or support structures. In one embodiment the cushion support is attached by at least one, preferably two, L-shaped brackets. Alternately, the cushion support may be unitarily formed onto the top section, such as when using injection molding or the like. Finally the cushion support may have width adjustment in order to fully vary the width of the cushion support.

Abstract: The body support chair for the physically challenged and disabled comprises a frame supporting an articulated structure comprising a back, a seat, a foot rest (33) supported by two uprights and means for holding the legs, at least in part immovable. The holding means comprise: two cross-members, each fitted on an upright (27) of the foot rest for extending into a working position (T) towards the front of the chair and provided in the front part with fastening means (80) arranged in the working position (T) at a corresponding distance from the upright (27); and an immovable front support element for the user's two legs, fitted on the fixation means (80) of the cross-members, in such a fashion as to extend between the cross-members.

Abstract: A footrest apparatus according to the present invention enables change of the position of a footrest and fixation of the same both in a position in which a surface for massaging lower limbs is oriented frontward and a position in which a lower limb resting surface is oriented frontward.

Abstract: A legrest-carrying chair is formed of a chair body 1A provided with a seat 2 on which a user sits, and a legrest 5 provided on a front side of the chair body 1A, the legrest 5 having front and rear surfaces, a leg holding unit 20 provided on the front surface and adapted to hold the user's legs, and a substantially flat leg resting portion 25 provided on the rear surface and capable of placing the user's legs thereon, the leg holding unit 20 having massaging members 23 adapted to massage the user's legs held in the leg holding unit 20, the legrest being mounted to the chair body 1A so that a front and a rear surfaces thereof can be reversed.

Abstract: A juvenile seat assembly includes a seat and a frame including front and rear legs coupled to the seat. The seat includes a seat bottom and a footrest mounted to the seat bottom. The footrest is formed to include a front-leg support coupled to each one of the front legs to block side-to-side movement of the seat relative to the frame.
