Wedge-shaped erecting positioning pillow with optional alternating pressure

摘要

Storage cushion (2) with two cushion cover layers (4, 5) and a pressure chamber (8) arranged between them, which changes the distance between the cushion cover layers (4, 5) when a fluid pressure medium is applied. When the at least one pressure chamber (8) is emptied, the storage cushion (2) assumes a basic state in which the two cushion cover layers (4, 5) run essentially parallel to one another and are close to one another. When the at least one pressure chamber (8) is acted upon by the pressure medium, the bearing cushion (2) assumes a wedge-shaped erect state in which the two cushion cover layers (4, 5) around a longitudinal axis (10) of the cushion at an acute angle (11) run in the range of 10 ° to 40 ° to each other. On its opposite main sides (6, 7), the support cushion (2) is delimited by the two cushion cover layers (4, 5), and in its basic state the support cushion (2) is suitable in a direction transverse to the longitudinal axis (10) of the cushion Insertion direction (22) between a patient (13) lying on a mattress (12) and the mattress (12).
