Abstract: An adjustable seat bracket particularly useful in connection with vehicular seats, and a set assembly including a seat affixed to the adjustable seat bracket are disclosed. The bracket has first and second support means joined by a hinge at their respective rear portions. The bracket is provided with latch means for releasably maintaining the support members in a fixed angular relationship with each other. In a preferred embodiment, the latch means comprises a slotted catch bar projecting from one support member, and a bolt means movably attached to the other support member and adapted to engage the slotted catch bar.A seat may readily be affixed to the present bracket which is in turn easily attached to a seat support surface.

Abstract: A rockingly movable chair includes a leg portion, a seat portion mounted on the leg portion and a circular arc surface provided on either of the leg portion or the seat portion for cooperating with an element which is provided on the other of the leg portion or the seat portion and which is displaceable along the circular arc surface so that the seat portion can rockingly move relative to the leg portion. A spring is provided between the leg portion and the seat portion to bias the seat portion with respect to the seat portion in one direction during the rocking movement. A locking device is provided to lock the rocking movement at a desired position.

Abstract: A device for adjusting the inclined angle of the seating surface of the seat cushion of an automotive seat essentially mounted in a vehicle. A pair of seat slide adjusting units are fixed to seat slide upper rails arranged on a floor surface and are disposed at both sides of a seat cushion frame. A sector gear plate is so secured to a bracket fixedly secured to the seat slide adjusting unit as to be elevationally rocked at its base around a fulcrum. Another bracket is fixedly secured to the seat sliding adjusting unit. A pinion gear rotated by a handle knob is journaled at the another bracket at a fulcrum. The pinion gear is coupled through a non-reversing unit with the handle knob in a manner that the gear may be freely rotated by the operation of the knob but may not be rotated by the rotating load applied from the pinion gear side. The pinion gear is engaged in mesh with the teeth of the gear plate.

Abstract: An adjustable automotive vehicle seat has independent front and rear edge adjusting and supporting means to provide for vertical adjustment of the seat between raised and lowered positions, and for tilt adjustment of the seat between an untilted position and a forwardly tilted position while preventing rearward tilting of the seat. A first control member is operable to provide only downward movement of the front edge of the seat, while a second control member is operable to provide only upward movement of the rear edge of the seat. A third control member is operable to provide either upward or downward movement of both front and rear edges simultaneously. Preferably the adjusting and support means comprises separate motors and the control members are switch operators.

Abstract: An improved inclinable chair structure is disclosed in which a laterally movable lever (6), mounted on the seat frame (4) for easy access from the front, moves along a laterally disposed cam surface (2, 2a, 2b) which is rigidly secured to the chair base (1).

Abstract: There is shown an infant car seat having a seat, back and sides. Support stands are connected to a plate member within compartments on either side of said seat which are in turn, pivotally connected to the side members of the seat. These plate members have an arcuate upper face with internal teeth extending downwardly therefrom. Buttons are spring biased within each of the compartments and extend through the upper walls thereof. The button has an extending portion which includes a compartment wherein the spring is placed between the upper section of the compartment and the pivot retaining means in order to bias the button upwardly. The upper portion of the button compartment contains teeth which mate with the teeth of the plate. The seat may be adjusted to various positions by depressing the buttons on either side of the seat and rotating the seat about the pivot point.

Abstract: A rockable against-the-wall type reclining chair in which the rocking and reclining elements of the chair are mounted upon a carriage gravitationally maintained at either of a forward or rearward end limit of movement upon a carriage supporting track assembly pivotally mounted upon a stationary base. Rocking or reclining of the chair elements may take place at the option of an occupant of the chair when the carriage is at its forward end limit of movement, at which time rocking or reclining movement of the chair back will clear any wall surface which may be located closely adjacent the rear of the base. The carriage is automatically returned to its rearward limit when the occupant arises from the chair, and upon return of the carriage to its rearward limit, the chair elements are automatically latched against reclining or rearward rocking movement.

Abstract: An electrically powered vehicle for an invalid has a track drive with pivoted idlers accommodating travel over obstacles and through uneven terrain and an electrically adjustable seat with an open front to facilitate seating of an invalid therein. Remote control affords the invalid user with the capability of calling the vehicle to bedside or the like whereby the invalid could use maximum freedom of movement.

Abstract: The chair described has a single support leg carrying a support plate. An elongate member is pivotally secured to the support plate. A back rest is rigidly secured to the rear end of the elongate member while a seat portion bearing support is pivotally secured to the front end of the elongate member. Separate means are provided on the support plate to vary the inclination of the rear end of the elongate member, and therefore the back rest, and to vary the inclination of the bearing support and therefore the seat portion which it supports.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an infant carrier assembly having an infant carrier which is mounted to the carrier frame by means of brackets and pins such that the infant seat may rest in a variety of positions or in some embodiments may be removed from the carrier frame to be used to carry the infant about.
