CUSHIONS HAVING VOIDS IN A LOWER SURFACE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240008656 titled 'CUSHIONS HAVING VOIDS IN A LOWER SURFACE

Simplified Explanation

The abstract of the patent application describes mattresses, cushions, and body-support mats or pads that are made of a polymer material. The polymer material defines the length, width, and depth of the product, with voids traversing at least a portion of the width. The voids are located at the lower and/or upper surface of the product and are defined by polymer walls. The polymer walls also define each polymer foot of the product, with different regions of the lower surface having feet of different sizes.

  • The invention is about mattresses, cushions, and body-support mats or pads made of a polymer material.
  • The polymer material determines the length, width, and depth of the product.
  • Voids in the polymer material traverse at least a portion of the width.
  • The voids are located at the lower and/or upper surface of the product.
  • The voids are defined by polymer walls.
  • Each polymer foot of the product is defined by the polymer walls.
  • Different regions of the lower surface have feet of different sizes.
  • The first region of the lower surface has at least one foot with a first size.
  • The second region of the lower surface has at least one foot with a second size.
  • The second foot spans a greater distance along the length than the first foot.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Mattresses and cushions for improved comfort and support.
  • Body-support mats or pads for medical or therapeutic purposes.
  • Furniture padding for enhanced comfort and durability.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Provides better support and comfort for users.
  • Offers customization options with different foot sizes.
  • Improves the overall quality and functionality of mattresses, cushions, and body-support mats or pads.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Enhanced comfort and support for users.
  • Increased durability and longevity of the product.
  • Customizable options for different user preferences.
  • Potential medical and therapeutic benefits for certain applications.


Original Abstract Submitted

mattresses, cushions, and body-support mats or pads are disclosed. polymer(s) at least partially define a length, width and depth, the depth extending from an upper surface proximate to where a user rests to a lower surface opposite the upper surface. voids in the polymer traverse at least a portion of the width. the plurality of voids are located at the lower surface and/or the upper surface and are defined by polymer walls and wall(s) of polymer walls define each polymer foot of polymer feet. a first region of a plurality of lower surface regions includes at least one foot of the plurality of polymer feet that has a first size. a second region of the plurality of lower surface regions includes at least one other foot having a second size. the at least one other foot spans a greater distance along the length than the at least one foot.
