Camp air chair
Systems and methods herein provide a customizable camp chair that may provide added levels of comfort to portable seating. In some examples, portions of the camp chair are inflatable to provide customized support at various areas of the chair. In other examples, portions of the camp chair are configured to receive inserted inflation devices for customized support at various areas of the chair. The chair may include an integrated air pump, which aids in inflation.
EASY CHAIR WITH EXERCISE AND HEALTH BENEFITS
A seating apparatus cushioned for providing comfortable seating of a body for living room, office and other seating environments. The seating apparatus includes a frame for a seat, a back component, arms and legs and includes one or more supports fixed with respect to the frame and extending from the seating apparatus to provide stationary anchors for use by the body in exercising and for ingress and egress from the seating apparatus.
Posture correcting system and related methods
The invention relates generally to a system and methods for facilitating correcting and maintaining a good posture. More specifically, the invention is directed to a posture correcting chair including a seating component, a pump mechanism, and a frame assembly. The seating component may include an inflatable element and a base element. The inflatable element and the base element form a housing. The pump mechanism may include a pumpsuch as a mechanical or electrical pumpfor pumping a medium into or out from the housing such that an occupant of the seating component may maintain a good posture.
Additive manufactured cushioned component
A seat assembly includes a cushioned component having a lattice matrix. An air bladder assembly is covered by the lattice matrix. The air bladder assembly includes a plurality of air bladders supported on a platform assembly. Each air bladder includes a body portion operable between deflated and inflated conditions. Each air bladder includes a connection stem. A support plate includes a plurality of access apertures disposed therethrough. The air bladder assembly is operably coupled to the support plate. Each air bladder is aligned with at least one access aperture of the plurality of access apertures. A carrier assembly includes a plurality of mounting apertures disposed through an outer surface thereof. The carrier assembly receives the connection stem of each air bladder through at least one mounting aperture of the plurality of mounting apertures of the carrier assembly.
ADDITIVE MANUFACTURED CUSHIONED COMPONENT
A seat assembly includes a cushioned component having a lattice matrix. An air bladder assembly is covered by the lattice matrix. The air bladder assembly includes a plurality of air bladders supported on a platform assembly. Each air bladder includes a body portion operable between deflated and inflated conditions. Each air bladder includes a connection stem. A support plate includes a plurality of access apertures disposed therethrough. The air bladder assembly is operably coupled to the support plate. Each air bladder is aligned with at least one access aperture of the plurality of access apertures. A carrier assembly includes a plurality of mounting apertures disposed through an outer surface thereof. The carrier assembly receives the connection stem of each air bladder through at least one mounting aperture of the plurality of mounting apertures of the carrier assembly.
MULTI-POSITION AIRFLOW CONTROL ASSEMBLY FOR AN AIR CUSHION
A multi-position airflow control assembly includes a valve body fluidly connected to at least three inflation zones of a cushion, a control assembly partially received by the valve body, the control assembly including a seal member, and an actuation assembly operably connected to the seal member and configured to rotate the seal member relative to the valve body between at least a first position and a second position. In the first position, the seal member is configured to fluidly isolate the at least three inflation zones from each other. In the second position, the seal member is configured to group the at least three inflation zones into a first group of inflation zones being fluidly connected, and a second group of inflation zones being fluidly connected, the first group of inflation zones being fluidly isolated from the second group of inflation zones.
WAIST SUPPORT CHAIR
A waist support chair includes a framework, a back support member, and a hips support member. The framework includes a back support frame and a chair bottom pivotally coupled to each other. The back support member is arranged on the back support frame and adjacent to the chair bottom. The back support member includes two upper support elements horizontally disposed and left-right symmetric to each other and two lower support elements horizontally disposed and left-right symmetric to each other. Two lower support elements are disposed between two upper support elements and the chair bottom. The hips support member is arranged on the chair bottom and includes a plurality of hollow elastic columns. When pressure is applied to the hollow elastic columns, the hollow elastic columns are compressed to release air.
Seat cushion
A seat cushion according to the present invention is configured as a fluid or gas containing bag. When weight of buttocks are transferred back and forth in left, right, front, rear directions, the fluid or gas contained therein will be transferred back and forth. The level of the fluid or gas contained in the seat cushion is defined by the manufacturer which is 5-40 millimeters. The fluid or gas is detained inside in use. The seat cushion can be laid on cushion of different seats and on the floor.
INFLATABLE CELLULAR CUSHIONING DEVICE FOR BODY SUPPORT
An inflatable cushion for body support is described. The inflatable cushion can be adjusted to manually/automatically set the proper pressure distribution, remove pressure from sensitive regions, alternate pressure, facilitate moisture removal, automatically detect leakage and avoid bottom down, communicate leakage and other problems with the user/caregiver, detect wrong positioning and facilitate position correction. The inflatable cushion can be used either as a chair cushion such as for example as a cushion for wheelchair or as a bed mattress.
THERAPEUTIC SEAT CUSHION EQUIPPED FOR PRESSURE MONITORING AND INFLATION SYSTEM FOR SAME
A seat cushion includes a plurality of inflatable cells, a pumping mechanism, and a manifold or valve system fluidly between the pumping mechanism and the inflatable cells. The manifold or the valve system, which may include a clutch and a motor, connect the pumping mechanism with the inflatable cells such that a plurality of zones are created. A valve assembly can include a plurality of valves and is adjustable among at least three valve configurations to vary fluid connections to the inflatable cells to produce rearwardly advancing waves. The pumping action produced by the inflation and deflation of the inflatable cells assists in pumping blood in a user's legs back toward the heart.
