Process For Producing Anti-Gravity Balance Massage Type Buffer Convection Airbag And Airbag Cushion

What is this patent about?

’041 is related to the field of living appliances, specifically to the design and manufacturing of airbags and airbag cushions. The background highlights the limitations of conventional bag products, which often prioritize storage capacity and aesthetics over user comfort, leading to issues like pressure points, restricted blood circulation, and poor ventilation. Existing airbag cushions offer some buffering, but lack features like air circulation and multi-functionality.

The underlying idea behind ’041 is to create an airbag cushion that provides both anti-gravity support and buffer convection , resulting in a balanced and massaging effect. This is achieved by designing a system of interconnected airbags that allow air or liquid to flow between them, distributing pressure and promoting air circulation. The manufacturing process is also designed to improve efficiency and product quality.

The claims of ’041 focus on a process for producing an anti-gravity balance massage type buffer convection airbag, involving preparing and laminating cushion surfaces, creating upper and lower cushion bodies, and shaping the final product. A key aspect is the use of a removable elastic fabric during the die-casting of the upper cushion body to prevent sticking to the mold. The claims also cover the resulting airbag cushion, characterized by multiple interconnected airbags forming convection units.

In practice, the process involves laminating an upper and lower cushion surface, followed by a molding process where a heated material is covered with an elastic fabric and then die-cast. The elastic fabric acts as a release layer, preventing adhesion to the mold and creating a textured surface on the cushion. The upper and lower cushion bodies are then laminated together, and the airbags are inflated and sealed. This creates a network of interconnected air chambers that can dynamically adjust to pressure, providing both cushioning and a massaging effect.

This design differentiates itself from prior art by incorporating air channels between airbags , enabling air or liquid to flow and distribute pressure more evenly. Unlike simple sealed airbags, this allows for a dynamic response to movement and pressure, providing a more comfortable and supportive experience. The use of a removable elastic fabric in the manufacturing process also addresses the problem of sticking during molding, improving production efficiency and reducing defects.
