DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
(4) The seat cushion according to the present invention is characterized in that:
(5) In FIG. 1, the seat cushion has a circular shape with a diameter of 315 millimeters, a fluid or gas containing bag (1) having a circular shape with a diameter of 300 millimeters being disposed inside having a small oval with a width of 86 millimeters and a length of 106 millimeters on its center for compartmentalizing the fluid or gas containing bag for supporting hip and thigh from the fluid or gas containing bag (1). Fluid or gas is filled in the fluid or gas containing bag (1) to a level of 5-40 millimeters, the fluid or gas containing bag (1) is sewn to a fabric sheet (2) for firmly fixing the fluid or gas containing bag (1) in a cover fabric (4), the edges of the fabric sheet (2) is sewn to the peripheral edges of the cover fabric (4) with a space of 14 centimeters, the cover fabric (4) is then flipped such that the fluid or gas containing bag (1) is disposed inside the cover fabric (4), sponge pad (3) is inserted between the fluid or gas containing bag (1) and the cover fabric (4) for additional softness on the contact surface in use, a product label (5) is sewn thereto, and the gap on the lower edge of the fabric of the product is closed.
(6) FIG. 2 shows attachment of the seat cushion to a cushion of a chair wherein the product label (5) is positioned at the back toward the backrest of the chair.
(7) In FIG. 3, when the seat cushion is in suitable position and a user sits such that buttocks was laid on the seat cushion wherein the right buttock presses the right side of the seat cushion (6) and the left buttock presses the left side of the seat cushion (7), if more weight is applied from the right buttock, the fluid or gas in the right portion will be transferred to the left portion such that the height of the right side of the seat cushion (6) is lowered and the height of the left side of the seat cushion (7) is increased, if more weight is applied on the left side, the fluid or gas in the left portion will be transferred to the right portion such that the height of the left side of the seat cushion (7) is lowered and the height of the right side of the seat cushion (6) is increased, if more weight is applied from the rear of the buttocks, the fluid or gas in the rear portion will be transferred to the front portion such that the height of the rear side of the seat cushion (8) is lowered and the height of the front side of the seat cushion (9) is increased, and if more weight is applied from the front of the buttock, the fluid or gas in the front portion will be transferred to the rear portion such that the height of the front side of the seat cushion (9) is lowered and the height of the rear side of the seat cushion (8) is increased. The transfer of fluid or gas from the left portion to the right portion, from the right portion to the left portion, from the front portion to the rear portion, and from the rear portion to the front portion result in movements of the muscles of hip, coccyx, and lower intervertebral discs in the direction of the fluid or gas contained in the seat cushion which exercise the muscles of hip, coccyx, and lower intervertebral discs in order to reduce fatigue.
