Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a seat air cushion, in particular to an alternating seat air cushion, belonging to the technical field of air cushions. Background Art

[0002] Seat cushions are mainly used to provide patients with a more comfortable sitting experience and a certain degree of decompression. They usually include a cushion body, which is generally made of durable and soft materials and can be inflated and deflated to adjust the hardness and height; there are also air valves for controlling the inflation and deflation of the cushions; and connecting pipes for connecting to the inflation device. This type of seat cushion can help patients who are bedridden or sitting for a long time to reduce local pressure and prevent the formation of pressure sores. It can also improve the comfort and stability of patients on the seat, making it easier for them to carry out some daily activities or receive treatment.

[0003] Traditional seat air cushions need to be inflated manually or with the help of tools when in use, and it may be difficult to accurately adjust to the pressure value that is most suitable for the patient. Traditional air cushions cannot effectively disperse pressure and cannot provide a more comfortable sitting experience. They may cause patients to sit for long periods of time, causing discomfort. In addition, the parts of the patient that are in contact with the seat are continuously under pressure, which may also lead to poor blood circulation and easily cause ischemia and hypoxia of the skin and subcutaneous tissue, which in turn may lead to pressure sores. This greatly reduces the comfort of the seat air cushion and makes patients more susceptible to pressure sores.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to improve the alternating seat air cushion to solve the above-mentioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an alternating seat air cushion, which inflates the outer cavity of the air cushion by connecting the first valve valve through a micro air pump.

When the outer cavity needs to be inflated, on the contrary, when the air pressure in the outer cavity is insufficient or too high, the gas in the outer cavity is drawn in or out by adjusting the first valve valve, and then the air pressure in the inner and outer cavities of the gas can be adjusted according to the needs of the patient, which can effectively disperse the pressure, reduce local continuous pressure, and provide patients with a more comfortable sitting experience, thereby greatly improving the comfort of the seat air cushion and preventing the risk of pressure sores.

[0015] 1. The utility model connects the first valve valve to inflate the outer cavity of the air cushion through a micro air pump. When the inner cavity needs to be inflated, the micro air pump needs to be connected to the second valve valve through the first connecting tube to extract the gas in the outer cavity, and then rely on the second connecting tube to connect to the third valve valve to pump the extracted gas into the inner cavity through the second connecting tube.
