Patent ID: 11178990

Abstract:
A pressure absorbing assembly (10) for supporting a user (35) relative to a support surface (16) includes a pressure absorber (12) and a resting component (14). The pressure absorber (12) is configured to contact the support surface (16). Additionally, the pressure absorber (12) is further configured to resiliently support the user (35) relative to the support surface (16). Further, the resting component (14) is coupled, e.g., directly coupled, to the Pressure absorber (12). Additionally, the resting component (14) is configured to be selectively engaged by the user (35) during use of the pressure absorber (12). The resting component (14) is configured to allow the user (35) to be in a seated, semi-seated, or somewhat reclined or leaning Position while still being situated on the pressure absorber (12). The pressure absorbing assembly (10) can also include a work station (2118) that is coupled to the pressure absorber (12).
