Abstract
An assembly composing of a robust articulating armature with optionally interchangeable platform like components which incorporate and adapts the core armature assembly into a multitude of product configurations each having ergonomic benefits. The core articulating armature is configured to be a variably lift assisted and repositionable in a manner when combined with the other elements, configures to become a device with demonstrably beneficial features in each of its configurations. In some of the configurations, lift assistance and positional support is the primary feature, whereas in other configurations, flexing and returning back to a user designated set position becomes the primary feature. This application discloses a device with the flexibility to be configured in such a manner as to bring benefits to both the consumer and to the manufacture due to its uniquely modular and configurable elements which can be utilized to create a multitude of ergonomic product configurations.
