- In particular, as the supply battery is in a chamber obtained in the armchair, the latter can be shifted flexibly inside a room or from one environment to another because there is no need to be near electric supply sockets. In fact, there has been a transition from a traditional electrified armchair to an armchair that, having a battery, becomes completely independent from the point of view of the electric supply.
- The presence of wheels moreover enables the armchair proposed herein to be moved easily, which can thus take on different configurations according to specific needs. For example, let the need be considered to free easily an auditorium or set up groups of armchairs to promote group activities or make rows having different curves.
- The proposed solution is particularly appreciated for compactness as the supply battery is not applied outside the armchair, but in a housing obtained in the armchair.
- The specific location of the battery in the housing below the back, in a position that is hidden and not easily accessible by the user, also meets a safety need.
- Further the aesthetic impact of the armchair is not diminished by the fact that the armchair includes the supply battery owing to the fact that the housing is protected by the cover element, which is substantially "flush" with the back.
- The use of a rechargeable lithium battery further permits rapid replacement. It is in fact easy to set up areas in conference rooms that are dedicated to containing reserve batteries.
