Portable rebounding device
A method for generating a rebounding motion between a person and a surface includes the steps of providing a rebounding device, positioning the rear member against the surface and the front member adjacent to an upper body of the person and the surface, and applying pressure to the rebounding device through the upper body. The rebounding device includes front and rear members having front and rear widths spanning right front and rear side edges and left front and rear side edges and first and second spring mechanisms positioned between the front and rear members. The first and second spring mechanisms are positioned between the right front side edge of the front member and the right rear side edge of the rear member and between the left front side edge of the front member and the left rear side edge of the rear member, respectively.
Back support
An improved back support designed for use in a seat, to relieve pressure on the user's back. The improved back support includes a first elongated belt segment and a second elongated belt segment. The first elongated belt segment is formed of a first fastening end, and a second attachment end, and the second elongated belt segment is formed of a first fastening end, and a second attachment end. The first elongated belt segment and the second elongated belt segment are adjoined with one or more straps. An individual strap is suspended from the seat to hold the brace in position and when it has been released.
SEAT AND LUMBAR SUPPORT CUSHION
In one embodiment, the present application discloses a 2-component seat and lumbar support cushion combination comprising: a seat support cushion comprising a top face, a bottom face, a front edge and a rear edge, wherein the seat support cushion is variably padded at the front edge and at the rear edge; a lumbar support cushion comprising a front face and a back face, wherein at least a part of the front face is convex-shaped; wherein the seat support cushion is optionally detachably attached to the lumbar support cushion; wherein when a user sits on the seat support cushion, the rear edge of the seat support cushion is at a position that is elevated above the front edge such that the rear edge anteriorly tilts the user's pelvis toward a more positive anterior tilt angle; and wherein the user's natural lumbar lordosis is further passively supported by the convex shape of the lumbar support cushion.
Portable seat cushion
A portable seat and back cushion for posture correction. The device includes a seat member with an inflatable bladder or a foam insert and a back member that is foldably connected to the seat member. A customizable support member is disposed within the back member. The customizable support member may include either an inflatable bladder with a plurality of individually adjustable bubbles arranged in a vertical row or a semi-rigid insert with a plurality of selectively positionable vertebral support nodules.
Method for enhancing comfort of a seat
A method is provided for enhancing comfort of a seat with a hip/thigh support and a back support. The method includes providing a seating pad assembly with a foam cushion made at least partly of a viscoelastic foam and having a cover formed from a dimensionally stable non-stretch material. An upper area of the seating pad assembly is attached to an upper area of the seat back. Pelvic and upper back areas of a person sitting on the seat deform the viscoelastic foam sufficiently to provide a comfortable support and to define anchors for the seating pad assembly. The non-stretch cover extends between those anchors for effectively supporting and cradling the lumbar back area of the person in the seat above and forward of the corner between the seat back and the hip/thigh support.
PORTABLE REBOUNDING DEVICE WITH FORCE ADJUSTMENT ASSEMBLY
A rebounding device includes a front member, a rear member, and a spring mechanism including a first biasing element and force adjustment assembly. The force adjustment assembly includes a spring element including a front planar surface and a rear planar surface connected at a rounded portion, wherein the front planar surface contacts an inner surface of the front member; a screw housing secured to an inner surface of the rear member, wherein the screw housing includes a longitudinal channel and a bore on an upper surface; a drive screw positioned through the bore and along the longitudinal channel of the screw housing; a threaded block positioned within the longitudinal channel of the screw housing, wherein the threaded block is configured to move vertically along the longitudinal channel, and wherein the rear planar surface of the spring element is secured to the threaded block.

Cushion Secure
A product consists of two arms added to furniture seating that slides into a side pocketed cushion keeping them in place. Alignment rods work in conjunction with a side pocketed cushion to hold upholstered furniture seating in place. The alignment rod is attached to the furniture mechanically or by welding, the cushion side pocket is stitched into the fabric of the cushion. The alignment rod slides into the side pocketed cushion allowing movement with the angle adjustment of furniture back. The technical field is devices for holding furniture cushions, like a rod inserted into an object to keep it from moving. Past options overlook a way for a cushion to slide when adjusting the angle of the back. The most common method for attaching a cushion uses a fabric tie, Velcro band or snap band. For instance, fabric ties become unstitched or break, Velcro wears out, or snaps break.
Support utility cushion for head, neck, and body
A pillow is described. The pillow includes an elongate outer fabric cover at least partially forming a closed elongate tube with the outer cover. The pillow also includes at least one aperture in the closed elongate tube, the at least one aperture having a selective closure associated therewith. Further, the pillow includes at least one baffle formed within the elongate tube. The at least one baffle is formed of fabric and is coupled to the outer cover at at least three points around the interior of the elongate tube. Further still, the pillow includes a filling material disposed within the elongate tube, the filing material comprises individual pieces of filling material. The filling material is configured with a size that it may bypass the baffle, but not generally freely. The elongate outer fabric and the filling material are configured to be bendable to any of a variety of shapes.
COMBINATION IN SITU OUTDOOR FURNITURE CUSHIONS COVER AND INTEGRAL HANDLE
A removable protective cover that also acts as a carrier for storing and transporting an outdoor furniture cushion of an outdoor piece of furniture having a seat support, arms, back rest, and legs. The protective cushion is unattached and separated from the cushion when covering the cushion adjacent thereto. The protective cushion is a flexible layer which is substantially rectangular with opposite first and second distal ends configured with snap closure fasteners and with an internal handle rod in each of the protective cushion's distal ends. The protective cushion is adapted to wrap around the seat and/or back cushions with the snap fasteners from the first and second distal ends engaging each other for enclosing the cushions for transporting and storage. Internal handles are adapted for carrying the cover enclosing a cushion, and the protective cushion is stored in the chair during normal user occupancy use of the chair.
