Self-Leveling Chair Arm

View page
US Patent:
6361114, Mar 26, 2002
Filed:
Jan 6, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/478747
Inventors:
Thomas C. Rumler - Bristol IN
Assignee:
Dura Global Technologies, Inc. - Rochester Hills MI
International Classification:
A47C 754
US Classification:
29741139, 29741129, 29741132, 29741138
Abstract:
A chair having a self-leveling armrest is disclosed, comprising a seat bottom and a seat back which rotates between a full up position and a full back position. The arm is moveable between an up position and a down position, and is positioned generally parallel with the seat bottom when in the down position. A first link member is pivotably connected to the seat bottom and to a second link member, and the second link member is pivotably connected to the seat back. The arm is pivotable with the seat back, and in the down position the arm moves with the second link member so that the arm remains generally parallel with respect to the seat bottom as the seat back pivots. A pin extends from the arm and is generally parallel with the armrest member. The pin is received by a pin-receiving groove in the second link member.

View page
US Patent:
20120228914, Sep 13, 2012
Filed:
Oct 7, 2010
Appl. No.:
13/500396
Inventors:
Thomas C. Rumler - Noblesville IN, US
Assignee:
INDIANA MILLS & MANUFACTURING, INC. - Westfield IN
International Classification:
B60N 2/20
B60N 2/46
B60N 2/22
US Classification:
29735413, 297353, 29735412
Abstract:
An apparatus for selectively moving a seat back of a motor vehicle seat relative to a seat bottom includes an armrest movably mounted to the vehicle seat, a seat back actuator and mechanical linkage engaged with and between the armrest and the seat back actuator. The armrest has a first position that supports an arm of an occupant of the motor vehicle seat, and is movable from the first position to a second position. The seat back actuator is responsive to actuation to allow the seat back of the vehicle seat to be moved relative to the seat bottom, and is responsive to release thereof to block movement of the seat back relative to the seat bottom. The mechanical linkage is responsive to movement of the armrest from the first position to the second position to actuate the seat back actuator and to otherwise release the seat back actuator.

View page
US Patent:
57205256, Feb 24, 1998
Filed:
Feb 3, 1997
Appl. No.:
8/792017

The arm bracket has at least three walls, the first and second walls facing one another, and the third wall connecting the first and second walls. An arm is connected to the seat back at the arm bracket, and is movable from an up position generally parallel with the seat back to a down position generally parallel with the seat base. Extending perpendicularly from the arm is a rod which is insertable into and through first and second openings in corresponding first and second walls. A pin having a diameter extends perpendicularly from the rod. The arm bracket has a pin receiving groove which snugly releasably receives the pin when the arm enters the down position.

Child Carrier Restraint

View page
US Patent:
20220355712, Nov 10, 2022
Filed:
May 6, 2021
Appl. No.:
17/313208
Inventors:
- South Bend IN, US
Thomas Rumler - Dowagiac MI, US
International Classification:
B60N 2/28
Abstract:
A child carrier restraint that allows the upper ends of the shoulder straps to be adjustably positioned to properly secure children having varying torso lengths within the child carrier. The child restraint includes a traditional five point belt harness and pair of shoulder belt location adjusters, which allows the shoulder strap to be selectively positioned over and behind the child regardless of the length of the child's torso. The shoulder location adjusters are mounted to the back of the child carrier and includes a strap loop trained about a locking slide and a bottom strap loop anchor. The end of the shoulder strap is sewn directly to the strap loop. The locking slide can be manually disengaged to allow the strap loop to slide freely, thereby selectively positioning the end of the shoulder strap along the back of the child carrier.

Vehicle Seat Having Integrate Child Carrier

View page
US Patent:
20200139858, May 7, 2020
Filed:
Oct 30, 2019
Appl. No.:
16/668998
Inventors:
- South Bend IN, US
Thomas A. Downey - South Bend IN, US
Thomas Rumler - Dowagiac MI, US
International Classification:
B60N 2/28
B60N 2/30
Abstract:
The vehicle seat includes an integral child carrier that deploys and unfolds for use as either a child seat or an infant cradle for safely transporting infants while being conveniently stowed when not in use. The child carrier includes a folding seat/cradle that in certain embodiments doubles as both an upright child seat and reclined infant cradle. The folding seat/cradle rides on its own carrier sub-frame that is mounted to the main seat back frame. The carrier sub-frame allows the seat/cradle movement between a stowed position where the folded seat/cradle lies flat within or against the seat back frame and a deployed position where the unfolded seat/cradle extends outward from the seat back frame. The carrier sub-frame includes one or more slide rails, slide blocks, a linkage member and a latch assembly. The seat/cradle includes a seat panel hinged to a back panel that unfold to form a secure seat or cradle from a flat stowed package.
