Abstract:
The disclosed technology relates to examination or procedure tables and chairs which can be moved into positions in more efficient and desirable ways to better meet the needs of the patient and medical service providers. In particular, a plurality of actuators which cause the seat, leg rest and foot rest of the disclosed technologies to move may, if desired, be independently programmed to provide mechanically independent movement of the seat, leg rest and foot rest to desirable positions needed to provide ease of entry or transfer by the patient to the equipment including positioning the highest portion of the seat to a home or patient entry position no more than nineteen inches from the floor.

Claim (Index 12):
An examination chair disposed on a floor comprising:\n A seat onto which a person transfers when moving onto and off the chair, the seat comprising an upper surface having one or more contours defining a vertically highest point of the seat; A leg rest assembly disposed adjacent the seat; Means for programmably providing infinite incremental extensions of the leg rest assembly to a fully extended position; Means for programmably providing infinite incremental raising and lowering the leg rest assembly relative to the seat between a substantially right angle position relative to the seat through a substantially parallel position relative to the seat; A foot rest hingedly attached to the leg rest assembly; Means for programmably providing infinite incremental rotation of the foot rest about the hinge relative to the leg rest assembly between a substantially right angle position relative to the leg rest assembly through a substantially parallel position relative to the leg rest assembly; wherein the means for programmably providing infinite incremental extensions of the leg rest assembly operates mechanically independent of the means for programmably providing infinite incremental rotation of the foot rest. A chair swivel system disposed between the seat and the floor; A swivel locking system disposed between the seat and the floor; and A programmable lift system connected to the seat for incrementally raising and lowering the seat, the lift system capable of moving the highest vertical point of the seat to a height no higher than nineteen inches from the floor.
