  • Publication number: 20090222991
    Abstract: This lounging device is an upper body elevator apparatus having an optional neck rest that should be used for recreational and/or therapeutic purposes. With an elevation of almost 90° the elongated tubular pillows are between a top and bottom sheet and are connected by gussets which gives the device its wedge effect. On either side of the center surface are air diffusers which allow air to diffuse from the pillows (pneumatic cushions) of the center surface to comfort and support the back. The elevating wedge and optional tubular neck support operate together to elevate the head at an angle comfortable for sitting in an upright position for many recreational and therapeutic purposes. An elongated tubular anchor/butt rest is shown connected to bottom sheet to include a lower body support surface. This is a cost effective device that every household can afford. Other embodiments are described and shown.
