Definitions
- the invention relates to RESILIENT SUPPORT CUSHIONS hereinafter known as the Resilient Support Cushion.
- Proposals have been made involving the use of springs of the same length or foam that does not give proper contoured resilient support or in some instances full support to the whole of the back at the same time giving localised support to specific areas of the spine for example the lumbar spine.
- a folding section the fold is made possible by hinges which can be welded to each opposing section of cushion or each section of cushion is joined by a separate strip of material sewn to the section so that if the sewing were to be removed or come loose the sections would separate. Or they are made with one continuous strip of material folded over each section of filling and sewn or welded down onto the inner face of the said material.
- Cushions with head-rests are normally fixed to chairs and have head-rests fixed rigidly or attached to a band of material which is stretched over the chair back. Such methods of folding the cushions and those types of head-rests are more expensive to make and more complicated to produce and the head-rests do not offer the same degree of simple adjustment. In the case of welded hinges these necessitate the use of specialised types of material.
- the aim of the present invention is to provide a simple and cheap form of firm body support that is rssilient to suit the different degrees of curvature of the spine and the weight of the user and that can be quickly and economically assembled.
- the support cushion comprises a flat or curved plate or board or frame that acts as a base against which localised resilient supports, hereinafter referred to as 'the resilient localised device' of various kinds can be compressed by the weight of the user.
- the device shall preferably be convex in shape.
- the resilient localised device may take the form of a piece of tube cut lengthwise and placed open-end downwards on to the board or plate or frame.
- the resilient localised device may comprise a shaped mass fitted to resilient strips, for eaample steel or plastic or it may be made in a single moulding or pressing for example, the strips preferably protruding from under it on each side and preferably localised into slots cut into or otherwise made in the board or plate or frame or into separate fabricated or moulded runners for example fixed to the front face of the board or plate or frame near to the outer edge of the board that is to say on each side of the board to the right and left of the mass that is preferably convex.
- the strips slide into the slots or runners and the convex mass moves under resilience into a cavity that shall be preferably made in the board or plate for the purpose of creating greater movement of the mass away from the user as his weight is applied.
- the runners fixed to the board or plate or frame may be higher in relation to the board or plate or frame surface.
- a steel frame may instead be used to allow movement of the mass further inwards into the cushion in which event slides or runners may be welded or otherwise fixed to the upper or lower side edges of the frame.
- the resilient localised device may consist of a number of coiled springs fitted in a localised position to the board or plate or to strips fixxed or resting on the frame or held in place just above one of them or two by foam that is itself held in place by an outer cover.
- the ends of the springs furthest from the pressure applied, or from the user if not already attached to the board or plate or strip/s as aforesaid come into contact with the board or material immediately situated between the board or plate or strip or strips as aforesaid and the ends of the said springs and then contract under the pressure, thereby creating resilient support to the user.
- the resilient localised device may comprise a non-resilient or resilient mass placed on springs that are fixed to or positioned over a board or plate or on strips of rigid material placed across a frame by foam for example and an outer case or a solid or hard-surfaced mass that can be hollow or a mass placed in a localised area on a 'bed ' of springs the said mass being held into position by fixing it to the springs, or by foam or by other filling over it and preferably an outer case
- weight is applied to the case over the area of the mass the springs if not already in contact with the board or plate or strip/s of rigid material placed across a frame or if not in contact with the material between the end of the springs and the board or plate or strip/s then make contact as aforesaid and resilience is felt by the user.
- the resilient localised device may comprise a resilient or non-resilient mass placed on to or being part of a localised piece of resilient material for example foam or a piece of material localised on a larger base of resilient material in the cushion and preferably covered by an outer case, when pressure is applied to an area immediately over the mass the said mass moved inwards against the said resilient material on which it is placed and resilient support is felt by the user.
- the resilient localised device may comprise a piece of shaped foam stuck to or positioned over the board or plate or on strip/s of non- resilient material placed across a frame in a localised area or areas or with other less protruding material surrounding it or it may be part of the filling itself standing proud in one or more localised areas of the cushion. When pressure is applied more resilience is felt in the localised area/s than in other areas of the filling.
- An alternative form of resilient localised device can comprise a 'U' - shaped spring fixed to the or localised on the board or plate or frame or on strips placed across the frame or localised on covering placed over the board plate or frame or strips as aforesaid and the foam or other filling that preferably keeps it in position.
- the resilient localised d vice may be a mass fixed to a board or plate, frame or strips on a frame as aforesaid or suspended in the filling over a board, plate, frame or strips on a frame in which the board, plate, frame itself may be resilient.
- the board, plate or frame and the mass which then becomes a a localised resilient device moves inwards against the weight of the user.
- the board, plate or frame in this instance being springy creates the resilience that is required in the area/s in which the mass has been placed on the board, plate or frame which returns to its original shape when pressure or weight of the user is released or removed.
- the board or plate or frame which may be made of any material is designed to prevent the colapsing of the cushion under the weight of the user except that in one of its forms as aforesaid it may itself be made of resilient and springy material. It may be of any width and length in relation to the width and length of the cushion except preferably in instances where the board plate or frame is surrounded by the outer cover and may be applied to the back of the cushion through an opening made in the top of the outer cover after the cushion has been made. The purpose of this is to enable the user to change the board or plate to suit the length of the back of his chair.
- the extra long board or plate or frame will give additional support to the top of the cushion or will enable the user to rest his head or to support a head-rest on that part of the board or plate or frame.
- the board or plate or frame may be fitted into the back of the cushion case or be supplied to place against the chair seat loosely or into bands of material, for example elastic, sewn on to the back of the cushion.
- the resilient device/s in the cushion and fitted away from the board or plate or strip/s placed on the frame only become effective as resilient support devices when the outer ends of the devices come into contact with the board or plate or strips across a frame or in some instances with the frame itself or into contact with the material between the end of the resilient localised devices and the said board or plate or strips placed across the frame or the frame itself.
- Those resilient devices fitted to the board or plate or frame or strips fitted to the frame are already in contact with the said board, plate frame or strip/s as aforesaid or with the material covering them if resting on the said material, and the botrd or plate or frame cannot be changed easily as can the board, plate or frame onto which no resilient device has been fitted.
- a simple form of the invention is to fix the resilient localised devices to the plate, board or strips or frame or to the cover immediately over them and to supply an extension board, plate or frame for the cushion and that can be fitted into pockets or straps sewn to the outer face of the cushion to enable the user as aforesaid to quickly lengthen the cushion and to enable him to rest his head or to support the head-rest against the board or plate or frame should he so wish.
- the localised support shall preferably be kept in position by the filling but can be localised by non- resilient connections between it and the board or plate or bet ween it and a frame, or it can be localised by the inside face of the outer case.
- the non-resilient fixings can be made to rotate or pivot on their connections to the board plate or frame when pressure is applied.
- a head-rest that may be stitched along its edge or at its ends or both to permit it to be hinged downwards or upwards to suit the length of back of the user, may be fitted to the outer case of the resilient support cushion or the board or plate or frame.
- the outer case may be zipped for easy access for assembly and manufacture and adjustment.
- the head-rest may be trapped in the desired position either by the head of the user or by an additional cover of any length and style to suit the user, being placed over it.
- the filling of the head-rest may be placed in a loose bolster kept in place by a piece of material stitched at either or both of its ends to the cover or zipped or studded at one or both ends for easy removal of the bolster.
- the filling can simply be divided into more than one section or piece and a row or rows of stitching made across the cushion cover to create separate areas or pockets into which the filling can be inserted. Or stitching may be placed across the filled area.
- Rows of stitching can be made after the cover has been made and before the filling is inserted or the stitching can be carried out after the filling has been inserted in such a wajj as to leave a space of air between the pieces of filling.
- the air gap created by the removal of the filling or the dividing of filling where the fold is to take place can be left unstitched, the material from which the cover is made in that instance preferably being longer than the material on the opposite broad surface of the cover to prevent stretching of the cover.
- a head-rest When a head-rest is fitted it may be formed from the existing cushion by placing a separate piece of filling inside the cover at the top end of the cushion and retaining it in that position by stitching along all or part of the width of the cushion underneath the level of the filling piece placed therein.
- the separate bolster may be fitted along its edge or at its ends to the cushion cover or it may be fixed to the board in a fixed position or in such a way, by straps for example, to hang loosely to enable the user to trap the cushion head-rest in any position to suit him by his head.
- a gap may be left at the top of the cushion between the filling and the inside surface of its cover to enable the user to lower the head-rest to suit his height when seated or when lying down should the cushion be placed in a horizontal position.
- the top filling can be made smaller to allow for more adjustment in the positioning of the head-rest,
- this may be made in two or more pieces joined together by a hinge.
- a vibrator may be incorporated in the cushion and will preferably form part of the localised device.
- a container of heat-creating chemicals preferably in the form of crystals solids or liquids may be incorporated either by the manufacturer or by the user into a pocket for example provided for that purpose. When the cushion is moved, or shaken by hand or by the vibrator heat is generated for the benefit of the user.
- a standard heat pad could instead be used .
