Active seat suspension for watercraft

A watercraft seat suspension includes a damper mounted between a watercraft seat and the watercraft hull. The damper includes an electrically actuated mechanism controlling fluid flow from a first chamber to a second chamber within the damper. A sensor senses motion of the seat relative to the hull. A control unit interpolates the sensor signal and develops an actuating signal controlling the electrically actuated mechanism. In one arrangement, the electrically actuated mechanism is a solenoid actuated by the actuating signal to effect one of two different damping modes. In another arrangement, the electrically actuated mechanism includes a conductor coil and flux ring generating a magnetic field proportional to the actuating signal to vary the viscosity of magneto-rheological fluid in the damper.

Foundation adapter system

A tiedown system foundation adapter system provides greater flexibility in spotting equipment on a support surface. An adapter module includes a plate assembly that drops into a slotted track system and is slid along the track system until it fits into an attachment point that restrains the plate assembly from vertical pullout and motion transverse to the track. The plate assembly is then locked into position to restrain it from further translation along the track. An equipment fitting is translatably mounted with respect to the upper surface and attaches to a complementary attachment fitting on the bottom of a piece of equipment. By locating a number of modules in desired locations along the tracks and locating the equipment fitting in each module, a piece of equipment can be oriented in virtually any position and location in the space to be furnished. A deck system for a flush floor is also provided.

Handicapped sporting platform and turntable

A platform including a rotatable turntable apparatus for attachment to a boat deck, or the cargo space of a pick-up truck or the cargo space of an all terrain vehicle, or other area where a person with impaired mobility needs to experience greater mobility to engage in fishing, boating, wild game hunting or activities that they would otherwise be unable to enjoy. The platform can be used for securely mounting a wheelchair or a fishing type chair to provide a rotational means for persons with impaired mobility. The turntable is reversibly rotated by an electric motor a full 360 degrees. The motor can be independently actuated by a switch located on the turntable within easy reach of the chair occupant or by a switch at another convenient location.

Fold-up marine furniture component with articulated bracket support

A four-bar hinge linkage and fold-down support assembly, such as an armrest, seat bottom, table top and the like especially suited for marine use in watercraft applications. The support member is pivotally supported by first and second four-bar hinge linkages for articulation from a stationary upright support structure affixed to the watercraft. Each of the four-bar hinge linkages comprises a support-structure-mounting bracket, a main hinge link, a shorter control / locking link and a support-member-mounting bracket. Each of the linkages articulates the support member between an upright stored position and a folded-down in-use position wherein, the swinging end of the control / locking link swings up and beneath the hinge link so that an end edge of the control / locking link abuts in line-to-line contact at an abutment locking point along the lower edge of the hinge link, each linkage being thus locked together to form a triangular support truss. The abutment locking point placement provides a strong support structure, reduces the possibility of creating a pinch point and is oriented well forward of the linkage pivot point so that the links will not push by one another.

Boat seat release system

A boat seat release system for assisting in the efficient and safe removal of a boat seat from a taper lock base. The boat seat release system includes a collar attachable to a pedestal and a pedal pivotally attached to the collar for selectively engaging a taper lock lever of a taper lock base to release the pedestal from base. The collar preferably has one or more rollers for engaging an upper surface of the base thereby simultaneously lifting the pedestal thereby breaking the frictional seal of the pedestal and the base.

Mounting assembly

A mounting assembly includes first and second mounts that connect two objects, such as an electronic instrument housing and a surface. The first mount engages the second mount at a receptacle by way of cooperating detent members. One mount includes a resilient member, upon which cooperating detent members are disposed. The resilient member provides a bias to cause secure engagement of the cooperating detent members. Other features of the mounting assembly include rotational engagement between first and second cooperating detent members such that the angle of the first mount may be adjusted with respect to the angle of the second mount. Also, lead-ins may be included on the second mount so that the resilient members on the first mount may be depressed to ensure proper engagement of the cooperating detent members.

Sea perch platform seat guardrail apparatus

A sea perch apparatus includes a platform configured to be located between a pair of spaced-apart sea perch support members located along a side or end of a boat. The platform is designed to be elevated so as to be in an upright position between the sea perch support members and lowered so as to be in a horizontal lower position near a waterline in which the boat is flowing when in the water. The platform serves as a guardrail between the sea perch support members, and when the platform is in the lower position, it serves as a swimming dock, tanning deck and further serves to facilitate easier embarking and disembarking to and from another boat. The platform is transformable into a seat when upright with arm rest. When upright, it is locked in place on either side of the upper side of the platform.

Seating for amphibious vehicles

Seat 2 is mounted to slide blocks 24 and rails 22, which in turn are mounted to upstanding brackets 20. The fore-and-aft adjustment of the seats is thus raised above the level of floor 16, avoiding fouling by sand and dirt; corrosion; and shorting where electric seat adjustment is used. Seat 2 comprises frame 4, backrest 14, and tip-up seat 8 which can be raised around pivots 6, 6ā€² to allow a higher seating position for marine use. In marine mode, the helmsman sits on cushion 10; in road mode, the driver sits on cushion 12. Latches are provided for fore-and-aft and tip-up cushion adjustment. Flaps 26 may protect sliding surfaces from contamination. Rails 22 may face upwards (34, FIG. 3), downwards (44, FIG. 4), or sideways, as convenient; the seat may be supported on a cradle (40, FIG. 4). Slide blocks may be replaced by rollers (32, FIGS. 2, 6).

Adjustable adapter assembly

An adjustable adapter assembly secures a framework / console to an anchoring fixture. A housing member connected to the framework has two pairs of parallel walls having laterally aligned elongate first slots and laterally aligned elongate second slots, respectively. A clasping mechanism inside the housing member has a shank portion and finger members. First and second threaded orthogonal bores laterally extend through the shank portion, a first threaded bolt extends through the first slots and first threaded bore, and a second threaded bolt extends through the second slots and second threaded bore. Rotating the first and second bolts laterally displaces the clasping mechanism to align the finger members with part of an anchoring fixture on the deck for engagement by the finger members when a locking ring is appropriately displaced. Several assemblies secured to the framework can be adjusted to interconnect with permanently mounted anchoring fixtures in the deck.
