Patent ID: 8133260

Claim:
A chiropractic table comprising: a base; a table support member connected to the base and extending upward from the base; an axial-lateral-tilt-flexion mechanism laterally connected to the table support member; a cephalad section connected transversely to and being supported by the table support member above the base; a head section connected to and extending longitudinally from a head end of the cephalad section; and a caudal section interconnected with the axial-lateral-tilt-flexion mechanism and the table support member and being positioned longitudinally adjacent a caudal end of the cephalad section wherein the axial-lateral-tilt-flexion mechanism has an axial pivot mechanism configured to axially swing the caudal section along a predefined arc around a longitudinal pivot axis that is parallel to a longitudinal axis of the chiropractic table, the axial pivot mechanism has a tracking plate with an arcuate-shaped tracking plate surface and an arcuate-shaped tracking rail wherein the tracking plate surface and the tracking rail are movably interconnected to provide movement of the caudal section through the predefined arc, the longitudinal pivot axis being located a predefined distance above a top surface of the chiropractic table, wherein a length of each of the cephalad section and the caudal section relative to each other such that caudal section provides pelvic support.
