An apparatus includes a support surface and a moving mechanism for automatically varying the orientation of the support surface in a predetermined manner over time to reduce or eliminate the likelihood of repetitive stress injury as a result of performing repetitive tasks on or otherwise using the support surface. By varying the orientation of the support surface, e.g., by moving and/or rotating the support surface over time, repetitive tasks performed on the support surface are modified at least subtly to reduce the repetitiveness of the individual motions performed by an operator.

Dispositif comprenant une surface d'appui et un mécanisme d'entraînement pour varier automatiquement l'orientation de la surface d'appui d'une façon préétablie au cours d'une certaine période, en vue de réduire ou d'éliminer le risque de microtraumatismes répétés résultant de tâches répétitives effectuées sur la surface d'appui ou au moyen de cette dernière. En modifiant l'orientation de la surface d'appui, par exemple en la déplaçant et/ou en la faisant pivoter pendant une certaine période, les tâches répétitives effectuées sur la surface d'appui sont modifiées au moins subtilement, ce qui réduit le caractère répétitif des mouvements individuels effectués par un opérateur.
