Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a supporting device.
  • a supporting device serves for instance to enable the head of a user to be placed thereon, wherein such a supporting device can serve as head support.
  • a supporting device according to the present invention can also serve as a seat-defining device or a carrier for allowing a body part (such as a leg or arm) of a patient to rest thereon, for instance as support in an operating room.
  • Supporting devices for the head or the seat of a user are per se known. These known devices are usually formed by a cushion-like element.
  • Such known supporting devices have a number of drawbacks, however, relating particularly to the application options thereof, for instance in saunas, in a garden or on the beach and so on.
  • a stack of planks of wood, plastic or metal as embodiment of a known supporting device is hard and uncomfortable, mainly as a result of the point load which is caused thereby, or at least felt by a user, particularly when he/she wishes to rest the head thereon.
  • the present invention has been developed with a view to obviating or at least reducing the above stated and other problems and drawbacks of known embodiments of human body part supporting devices, for which purpose a human body part supporting devices is provided according to the present invention as claimed in claim 1.
  • Fig. 1 shows an embodiment of a human body part supporting device with (in frontal view) circular, plate-like support bodies 9 which are each arranged on a tilting and rotation mechanism 30.
  • Each support body 9 is placed in the direction of arrow G on an upright 31 with a ball head 32 on the free outer end thereof.
  • a receiving cavity 33 for receiving the ball head therein.
  • Each support body 9 can thus rotate and pivot so as to adjust its position to a load of a weight pressing thereon for an optimum pressure distribution and increased comfort.
  • Figure 2 shows an embodiment with support bodies 9 having different peripheral forms.
  • the human body part supporting device can be designed such that at least one of the support bodies is bowl-shaped for the purpose of accommodating particularly a curvature along the back of a head of a user. This is shown with broken lines in figure 1 . All of the at least three support bodies are preferably bowl-shaped in order to thus realize the most optimal possible convenience of use.
  • Support bodies of a human body part supporting device according to the present invention can be covered with a cushion-like element, for instance a gel element or silicone-filled elements.
  • the choice of a material of the human body part supporting device or parts thereof can be based on an intended application.
  • An application under a sunbed or sun lamp or in a sauna will thus preclude the support bodies being manufactured from a strongly heat-conducting material (such as a metal), because these support bodies might then become too hot for a user to touch such support bodies or even lie on or against them.
  • a strongly heat-conducting material such as a metal
  • the support bodies can be covered with a compressible body such as a gel or silicone element.
  • Ball joints are commercially available and consist of a metal threaded end with a ball at the end. This ball is pressed into a plastic cavity. This plastic part has a flat side with which it can be fixed to a wooden support surface. The threaded end is screwed into the wood, whereby there is no danger of burning if it is applied for the sauna cushion. Tilting surfaces or planks of wood, plastic or metal forming or defining the support bodies can in front view additionally or alternatively also be round, triangular, square, rectangular and so on. Combinations of support bodies with different peripheral forms in a single device are likewise possible, as shown in figure 2 .
  • the peripheral forms can also be defined jointly by a number of such support bodies or plates, and the forms of the support bodies are preferably chosen and arranged such that minimal gaps generally remain therebetween and maximum support is thus provided without (great) risk of hair or fingers of a user becoming trapped or jammed in these gaps.
  • use can further be made of a frame which can be arranged on the base plate and round the support bodies. A package can thus be formed which is easily stored, particularly when such a frame fits so closely round the support bodies that they are held in a position parallel to the base plate.
  • a device according to the invention is shown and described with a base plate, and that it is possible to integrate a device according to the invention in a chair, bed, sauna bench or other similar configuration.
