  • Patent number: 10517378
    Abstract: Implementations of a hammock are provided. In some implementations, the hammock may be configured to provide a head pocket that supports the head of a user without straining the neck. In some implementations, the hammock may be configured to provide two arm rests that position the arms of a user alongside their body, outside the confines of the interior compartment of the hammock. In some implementations, the hammock may be configured to provide a leg well that supports the legs of a user without straining the knees. A method of constructing a hammock having a central portion that is elevated when hung is disclosed. By elevating the central portion of the hammock, the mid-line of a user's body (e.g., the lower back, hips, and/or legs) may be raised to the same or similar elevation as the head pocket and/or the leg well of the hammock.
