Benefits of technology

The present invention is a kneeling device that includes a platform made of resilient material and at least one handle that can be attached to the platform. The platform has two depressions for receiving the knees of an individual. The device allows users to use the platform without the handle(s) and can be easily stored. The handle(s) help transfer the weight of the body to the platform, making it easy for the individual to stand or kneel. The technical effect of this invention is to provide a versatile and convenient tool for kneeling and other forms of exercise.

Problems solved by technology

The technical problem addressed in this patent is the pain and damage to the knees caused by traditional kneeling methods, which can be difficult and uncomfortable for individuals with knee problems. The patent describes various kneeling devices that have been developed to address these issues, but each has its own limitations such as being cumbersome, applying pressure unevenly, or requiring a flexible individual. The patent proposes a new kneeling device that overcomes these limitations and provides a more comfortable and efficient solution for individuals who need to kneel for extended periods of time.
