Patent number: 9743771Abstract: Dynamic furniture for supporting a seated or reclining user includes a base, an actuator assembly supported by the base, a front boom in circular orbital connection to a portion of the base, a rear boom in circular orbital connection to another portion of the base, a seat platform supported by the actuator assembly, and a back platform supported by the actuator assembly. The seat platform and the back platform are capable of remaining stationary relative to the actuator assembly while the actuator assembly moves relative to the base. The seat platform and the back platform are also capable of moving relative to the actuator assembly while the actuator assembly remains stationary relative to the base. The seat platform and the back platform are also capable of moving relative to the actuator assembly while the actuator assembly moves relative to the base.Type: GrantFiled: February 10, 2015Date of Patent: August 29, 2017Assignee: Exciting Inc.Inventors: Scott Erb, Mark M.

Patent number: 8979201Abstract: Dynamic furniture supports a seated or reclining user. The furniture includes a base, an actuator, a seat platform, and a back platform. The actuator is in circular connection to the base. The seat platform is in circular or excentric connection to the actuator assembly. The back platform is in circular or excentric connection to the actuator assembly. The actuator assembly, seat platform and back platform may be restricted in movement along paths by assemblies of the circular or excentric connections.Type: GrantFiled: November 25, 2013Date of Patent: March 17, 2015Assignee: Exciting Inc.Inventors: Scott Erb, Mark M. Erb

Patent number: 7850238Abstract: Dynamic furniture having platforms in dynamic attachment to an actuator assembly that in turn is in dynamic attachment to a base. Use of motional platforms supported by a motional actuator assembly permits an article of the furniture to conform to the many and varied body positions a user wants, and allows a user to more easily change body positions while remaining within the furniture, and in medical scenarios may obviate most needs to transfer a patient from one article of furniture to another.Type: GrantFiled: July 16, 2007Date of Patent: December 14, 2010Inventors: Scott C. Erb, Mark M. Erb
