  • SEATING SYSTEM HAVING PRESSURE COMPENSATING FLUID WITH THERMAL CONDUCTION PROPERTIES
    Publication number: 20170290723
    Abstract: A seating system, particularly suited for personal mobility vehicles, such as wheelchairs, includes a seat cushion having pressure relieving properties and enhanced thermal conduction properties. The seat cushion includes a thixotropic fluid contained within a flexible envelope. The thixotropic fluid includes nanoparticles that enhance the thermal conduction properties of the seat cushion to increase heat transfer from a seated user to provide a reduced temperature sensory effect.
