Abstract: This invention relates in general to supports and in particular to collapsible portable travel supports for use in conjunction with a seat during travel. The support device has a main body of flexible material and a self-deploying support structure has a plurality of hollow sections having a slip joint connection and a chord secured to opposing ends of the structure and passing longitudinally through all sections. The self-deploying support structure is transformable between storage and deployed configurations where the slip joint connections of each section are mated to form a unitary structure. An attachment mechanism associated with the body attaches the body to the self-deploying support structure. The main body and self-deploying support structure are configured to form a self-supporting structure spaced apart from the seat in use and from a structure in front of the seat supporting the user.

Abstract: A seating support device for use in conjunction with a seat to support a user during travel. The support comprises a main body of flexible material that is capable of being manipulated to alter a three dimensional form of the body into one of multiple usable forms. At least one of the multiple forms is a support form having a recess for a user to rest their leg and/or foot therein. Other forms include a second support form and/or a pouch or carry bag form. An attachment mechanism associated with the body is provided for attaching the body to a support structure separate from a seating surface of the seat in the at least one support form. The body is also configured to couple the seat in use.
