Abstract: An adjustable strut that includes an outer housing configured to receive an extendable member, and an extending mechanism with a gear system configured to convert rotation motion of an input mechanism into linear translation of the extendable member.

Abstract: A lifting device, configured to expand in a first direction between a deflated configuration and an inflated configuration upon being filled with compressed gas, may have a continuous surface including a bottom surface, a lower and upper intermediate surfaces and a top surface. A bottom plate may be coupled to at least part of bottom surface and a top plate may be coupled to at least part of the top surface. The continuous surface may include a plurality of surface undulations that provide a low height profile when in the deflated configuration and a higher height profile when in the inflated configuration. The plurality of surface undulations may vary between a first and second height when in the deflated configuration, but in the inflated configuration the variance between the relative heights of any remaining undulations is relatively smaller.

Abstract translation: 提升装置，其构造成在填充有压缩气体时在放气构型和膨胀构型之间沿第一方向膨胀，可以具有包括底表面，下和上中间表面和顶表面的连续表面。 底板可以联接到底表面的至少一部分，并且顶板可以联接到顶表面的至少一部分。 连续表面可以包括多个表面起伏，当处于放气构型时提供低的高度轮廓，并且当处于膨胀的构型时，其具有更高的高度轮廓。 当处于放气构型时，多个表面起伏可以在第一和第二高度之间变化，但是在膨胀构型中，任何剩余起伏的相对高度之间的差异相对较小。
