Embodiments described herein are directed to a travel pillow having a neck portion, a hood portion, and a support assembly. The neck portion includes a cavity and a rear exterior surface having one or more first mating elements. The hood portion extends from the neck portion and includes an inwardly foldable lining. The hood portion includes one or more second mating elements disposed on a front exterior surface thereof and configured to mate with the one or more first mating elements. The support assembly is insertable within the cavity. The support assembly includes an outer covering, a foam insert disposed within the outer covering, and a padding layer. The padding layer is disposed between the foam insert and an inner surface of the outer covering. The padding layer is asymmetrically distributed along a length of the support assembly.

The head and neck support system includes a pair of rods, a frame having an upper portion and a lower portion, and a pad having an attachment device, a first surface and a second surface. The pad wraps around the frame so as to form a loop to hold the head of a user against the second surface. The pad can have an eye mask or face mask section for a resting or sleeping position for the user. The lower portion of the frame is aligned with the back of the user so that the weight of the user stabilizes the frame. The rods connect the lower portion and the upper portion of the frame so that stabilization from the back of the user supports the pad and head of the user.

A chair (1) for relieving back pain of a user, with a seat surface (2) and a backrest (3), wherein a backrest angle (4) between backrest (3) and seat surface (2) is adaptable. At least one support element (5) for supporting the upper body of the user, when the latter is in an intended sitting position, is arranged on the backrest (3), wherein the support element (5), in the intended sitting position, can preferably be arranged, or is arranged, under the armpits of the user. The support element (5) is designed in such a way, and arranged on the backrest in such a way, that it can be moved by the user in order to obtain a desired support of the upper body at a predefined backrest angle (4) while he is in the intended sitting position.

The invention provides head and neck support sleep aid devices and methods for securely restraining the head of fatigued and sleeping travelers seated in a constrained, upright position, to prevent involuntary forward or lateral head flexion. The devices and methods of the invention employ a rigid elongate lever member adapted to be interposed between a user's back and an upright seat surface and head bracing means connected to the lever member to restrain the user's head against forward and lateral flexion.

The present invention relates to a wireless speaker chair, and more particularly, to a wireless speaker chair capable of providing a sense of space and a three-dimensional effect to a user who sits in the chair through sounds output from a plurality of speaker channels and allowing the plurality of speaker channels to wirelessly receive sound signals and power which are received to output sounds.

A method and associated systems for furniture-enabled monitoring and discouragement of sedentary behavior. One or more sensors embedded into a computer-monitored and computer-controlled piece of furniture determine that a user has sat or reclined on the piece of furniture for a predetermined period of time. In response, controllers embedded into the furniture are directed to make the furniture less comfortable in order to encourage the user to get up. In some cases, if the user does not get up, the controllers continue to make the furniture increasingly uncomfortable. Once the user does get up, the furniture is restored to its original comfortable condition after a specified period of time.
