Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0707843A1] The equipment comprises a seat plate (1) lifted and lowered by a drive mechanism, together with a backrest (6), while an actuator works between the mechanism and the plate. The actuator incorporates a support (9) engaging with the plate and extensible downwards from it. This acts against a baseplate, so as to lift the plate. There can be a scissor linkage (3) between the seat plate and baseplate. A rack consisting of toothed segments (8.1) stored in a shaft can engage with the top end of the support. A motor-driven pinion (12) meshes with the segments. It, the motor (11) and the shaft are accommodated in the backrest above the seat plate.
