The secret to the extraordinary comfort of this multi-cell air cushion is the valve! It lets you customize the inflatable seat cushion to your specific comfort level. The adjustable interconnected air-filled cells redistribute your body weight to minimize pressure while the padded cover adds an extra level of comfort. ![]() Using proven medical technology that helps wheelchair users sit for longer periods of time without pain and numbness, we have created an inflatable seat cushion that will help you find comfort while sitting on a plane, driving, sitting in an office chair, or on a mobility scooter. Individual cells are interconnected which allows air to slowly transfer from the inflatable chambers in the seat cushion and evenly distribute body weight to minimize pressure. When used in a car or truck, the air filled cells of the inflatable seat cushion work to absorb road vibrations and impact which cause spinal cord compression and lower back pain. It also enhances sitting posture, reducing back pain and discomfort. This is the last car seat, bleacher seat, plane seat, or office chair seat you will ever own! The single most important thing a seat cushion does is to conform to the shape of your body to spread the load. Our inflatable seat cushion achieves this objective by precisely adapting itself to your individual shape.
You end up sitting on a very shallow cushion of air that conforms perfectly to your shape, thus spreading the weight out well beyond the areas where it normally concentrates. By spreading the support over a much larger area, the inflatable seat cushion allows blood to flow much more freely, improving muscle function, circulation, combating pain and fatigue. The secure valve holds the cushion's exact inflation level and guarantees continuous, form-fitting support. The inflatable seat cushion includes a small, hand-operated pump, plus a special valve system. The inflatable seat cushion makes a great gift for employees and bosses! Also makes a great present for people who use mobility scooters, cab drivers, or anyone else who sits for extended periods of time. The Inflatable Seat Cushion puts serious sitting comfort at your fingertips! Simply twist the valve to tailor the support to fit your personal comfort level. Readjust for different seating surfaces for continued custom comfort wherever you sit. It is a portable cushion which folds, so it's easy to take to the big game for your stadium seat cushion or when you travel.
The inflatable seat cushion uses a system of soft, flexible air cells interconnected by small channels that allows air to flow from one cell to another at a controlled rate. This is what sets our shape fitting technology apart from the other - the ability to protect the body from multiple forces – pressure, friction, shear, shock, and vibration – and maintain the same level of comfort and protection indefinitely. A special valve allows you to adjust the amount of air it holds. This valve lets you customize the product to your specifications and achieve your precise level of comfort. It is designed to perfectly match your shape and contour, redistributing your body weight to minimize pressure "hot spots." The pressure mapping photos below illustrate the difference between a conventional cushion and our inflatable seat cushion. Red and yellow areas in the first photo highlight uncomfortable pressure points. However the second photo shows how the inflatable seat cushion redistributes the pressure over the entire surface area, allowing for better blood circulation and ultimately more comfort.
Our technology has proven effective for healing and prevention of ischemic ulcers and the positioning and stability needed by wheelchair users, and added comfort for extended sitting times. We chose to use air as the fluid instead of water because of the weight and potential problems water could cause. Water is affected by gravity, difficult to adjust, hard to regulate by temperature, and requires lengthy set-up and take down times. Foams and gels don't posses all of the same properties as air and thus are inadequate at providing appropriate pressure distribution without tissue deformation. Foams compress with time, becoming virtually useless, and gels tend to be heavy, coagulate with time, and become softer when hot and harder when cold, due to changes in density from temperature exposure.
As a result of the unique properties used by the inflatable seat cushion, there is a low friction and low shear environment. Friction acts to oppose the direction of motion, or impending motion. Shearing occurs when opposite, but parallel, forces meet and the outcome inhibits blood flow. The slick surface of the cells combined with independent motion of each cell greatly reduces friction and shear as you move allowing your back muscles to more readily adapt and stabilize.
