Abstract:
1. A seat assembly, comprising: a first support; a second support in proximity to the first support with at least one gap being defined between the first and second supports; and a seating pad removably positionable on at least parts of the first and second supports and being dimensioned to cover substantially all of the first support and at least part of the second support, the seating pad including a viscoelastic foam cushion having a bottom surface and a top surface opposite the bottom surface, the viscoelastic foam cushion having a density, hardness and thickness selected to permit portions of the viscoelastic foam cushion adjacent the bottom surface to flow into and conform to the gap between the first and second supports to define a convex lower conformal area nesting with the gap, the seating pad further having firmness, resiliency and thickness characteristics so that a concave upper conformal area caused by weight of a person using the seat assembly is spaced above the supports and the gap.
