A universal remote control system and apparatus capable of providing control for a piece of furniture having power lift, power recline, heat and/or massage functions. The universal remote control system also has the ability to remotely control most audio and/or video components, such as televisions, VCRs, CD players, and DVD players. The universal remote control system also includes a universal remote control unit having an input jack for receiving telephone signals, and control functions that allow the remote control unit to be used as a telephone.

307/130000

A power control device including a remote switch box having a remote switch box having a remote safety switch and a micro-controller, and an interface box operably controlled by the micro-controller. When operated, the remote safety switch prevents unauthorized use of electrical appliances as well as: continued shutdown of electrical appliances after a power outage; regulation of power input for electrical appliances; and detached remote operation.

The gas safety valve includes a valve that is solenoid actuated in a fashion to interrupt the flow of gas from the gas line to the stove. A remotely located switch including a key locking mechanism can be mounted at any convenient but safe location. A key activates the switch which in turn energizes the solenoid to permit gas flow to the stove. Mounting of the key locking mechanism remote from the stove is added security. An indicator light reveals whether the gas valve is open, closed or perhaps not connected to a source of electricity.

A vibrator is disclosed for mounting on furniture in which a pair of vibrator motors is each mounted to an independent long relatively rigid resonator member capable of transmitting virations, the two long resonators for the respective motors being parallel to one another and mounted by non-rigid means such as a sheet of cardboard or springs to the remainder of the structure of the furniture. One form of complete unit comprises a non-rigid sheet containing two rigid rods each associated with an off-center vibrating motor, which underlies the surface of the furniture contacted by the user. A vibrator controller supplies the two vibrator motors with 60 Hertz pulsed D. C. current which is amplitude modulated at approximately 16 cycles per minute, with the modulation supplied to one motor 180. degree. out of phase with the other motor so that the user experiences the sensation of moving wave. The user simultaneously receives a 16 cycle per minute alternating tactile stimulation, and a 60 Hertz audio wave which is aplitude modulated at 16 cycles per minute.
