Abstract: An adjustable bench-mountable cupholder has a bench connection bracket, an arm positioning bracket, an arm adjustment mechanism, a linkage arm, and a cupholder. The bench connection bracket is a rigid member that clamps the bench against a mounting surface of the arm positioning bracket. The arm positioning bracket enables the linkage arm to be articulatably connected to the bench. Specifically, the arm adjustment mechanism is a coupling system that is connected in between one end of the linkage arm and the arm positioning bracket; thereby enabling the linkage arm to be transitioned between a stowed configuration and a deployed configuration. The cupholder is detachably mounted onto the linkage arm and is positioned away from the arm positioning bracket. This enables the cupholder to be positioned at a desired location when deployed.

Abstract: A multi-axis headrest system for simultaneously locking or adjusting all axis of an adjustable headrest with a single lever or a single point of adjustment is provided. No external tools are required but may be used if desired. The single lever or point of adjustment allows the headrest to be correctly positioned optimizing the comfort, function and safety of the user. The single lever or point of adjustment provides the caregiver, or attending individual, the ability to adjust the positioning of the headrest with greater ease, more control and confidence. The single lever or point of adjustment causes a locking mechanism or means to generate a clamping force that locks the headrest in place. The same lever or point of adjustment also causes the locking mechanism or means to release the clamping force to allow adjustment of the headrest. The ease of adjustability is achieved without compromising security and durability.
