Abstract

An apparatus has a first section having a hollow interior that is filled with air, and a second section attached to the top of the first section and having a hollow interior that retains a liquid.

Claims (35)

1. A sitting apparatus, comprising:

a first section having a top, a rear, and a hollow interior that defines a first single cavity that is directly filled with a first fluid;

a second section attached to the top of the first section and having a top surface, and a hollow interior that defines a second single cavity that retains a second fluid; and

a backrest attached to the rear of the first section in a manner such that a top surface of the backrest extends above the top surface of the second section, the backrest having front and rear surfaces that are completely parallel with each other, a length or width that is substantially parallel to a vertical axis, and wherein the backrest does not completely surround the respective perimeters of the first and second sections;

wherein the first fluid is air, and the second fluid is a liquid; and

wherein the first and second sections have the same size and shape, and are oriented horizontally and transverse with respect to the backrest.

2. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the backrest has a hollow interior that is filled with the first fluid.

3. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the backrest has a hollow interior that is filled with the second fluid.

4. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the backrest comprises a plurality of separate backrest sections attached on top of each other, with each backrest section having a hollow interior that is filled with one of the first fluid or the second fluid.

5. The apparatus of claim 1 , further including an arm rest section having a hollow interior that is filled with one of the first fluid or the second fluid.

6. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the backrest is separate from the first and second sections.

7. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the backrest is spaced-apart from the first and second sections.

8. A sitting apparatus, comprising:

a first section having a top, a rear, and a hollow interior that defines a first single cavity that is directly filled with a first fluid;

a second section attached to the top of the first section and having a top surface, and a hollow interior that defines a second single cavity that retains a second fluid; and

a backrest attached to the rear of the first section in a manner such that a top surface of the backrest extends above the top surface of the second section, the backrest having front and rear surfaces that are completely parallel with each other, a length or width that is substantially parallel to a vertical axis, and wherein the backrest does not completely surround the respective perimeters of the first and second sections;

wherein the first fluid is air, and the second fluid is a liquid;

means for removably coupling the second section to the top of the first section, and

wherein the first and second sections are oriented horizontally and transverse with respect to the backrest.

9. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the backrest is separate from the first and second sections.

10. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the backrest is spaced-apart from the first and second sections.

11. A sitting apparatus, comprising:

a first section having a top, a rear, and a hollow interior that defines a first single cavity that is directly filled with a first fluid;

a second section attached to the top of the first section and having a top surface, and a hollow interior that defines a second single cavity that retains a second fluid; and

a backrest attached to the rear of the first section in a manner such that a top surface of the backrest extends above the top surface of the second section, the backrest having front and rear surfaces that are completely parallel with each other, a length or width that is substantially parallel to a vertical axis, and wherein the backrest does not completely surround the respective perimeters of the first and second sections;

wherein the first fluid is liquid, and the second fluid is a air, and

wherein the first and second sections are oriented horizontally and transverse with respect to the backrest.

12. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the backrest has a hollow interior that is filled with the first fluid.

13. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the backrest has a hollow interior that is filled with the second fluid.

14. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the backrest comprises a plurality of separate backrest sections attached on top of each other, with each backrest section having a hollow interior that is filled with one of the first fluid or the second fluid.

15. The apparatus of claim 11 , further including an arm rest section having a hollow interior that is filled with one of the first fluid or the second fluid.

16. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the first and second sections have the same size and shape.

17. The apparatus of claim 11 , further including means for removably coupling the second section to the top of the first section.

18. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the backrest is separate from the first and second sections.

19. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the backrest is spaced-apart from the first and second sections.
