Abstract:
1. A two layer air support apparatus, comprising: a. a flexible airtight structure having a unity flat base portion and a plurality of spaced apart hollow expandable and contractible air nodes extending upwardly from the base portion; b. a first air flow circuit for pressurizing a first set of said plurality of air nodes, the first air flow circuit having an inlet port for allowing compressed air to enter into the first set of said plurality of air nodes and a plurality of first air channels integrally formed to said base portion, each first air channel respectively interconnecting at least two alternating air nodes of the first set for transferring compressed air therebetween; c. a second air flow circuit for pressurizing a second set of said plurality of air nodes, the second air flow circuit having an inlet port for allowing compressed air to enter into the second set of said plurality of air nodes and a plurality of second air channels integrally formed to said base portion, each second air channel respectively interconnecting at least two alternating air nodes of the second set for transferring compressed air therebetween; and d. means for creating cyclic pressurizing and depressurizing of said first and second sets of said plurality of air nodes in an alternating up and down arrangement such that the periodic shifting of the area supported of a user's anatomy over a period of time improves comfort and blood circulation.
