Abstract

A back support device is disclosed that comprises a lumbar portion having a surface for supporting a lumbar region of a body, a thoracic portion having a surface for supporting a thoracic region of a body, and a connecting member for connecting the lumbar portion and the thoracic portion and for aligning the lumbar portion and the thoracic portion, simultaneously, with a cervical portion housing a surface to support the cervical spine and the connecting member of the thoracic portion to simultaneously sort the body in a recline position.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A back support device comprising:
 a lumbar portion having a surface for supporting a lumbar region of a body;   a thoracic portion having a surface for supporting a thoracic region of a body; and   a connecting member for connecting the lumbar portion and the thoracic portion and for aligning the lumbar portion and the thoracic portion.   
   
   
       2 . The back support device of  claim 1  wherein the lumbar portion comprises a resilient cushion material. 
   
   
       3 . The back support device of  claim 1  wherein the thoracic portion comprises a resilient cushion material. 
   
   
       4 . The back support device of  claim 1  wherein the lumbar portion is circular in shape. 
   
   
       5 . The back support device of  claim 1  wherein the thoracic portion has a thickness and the back support device further comprises an attachment device for the thoracic portion for making the thoracic portion thicker. 
   
   
       6 . The back support device of  claim 1  wherein the lumbar portion is circular in shape having a first diameter and the thoracic portion is circular in shape having a second diameter and the first diameter is greater than the second diameter. 
   
   
       7 . The back support device of  claim 1  wherein the lumbar portion has a thickness and the back support device further comprises an attachment device for the lumbar portion for making the lumbar portion thicker. 
   
   
       8 . A back support device comprising:
 a lumbar portion having a surface for supporting a lumbar region of a body;   a thoracic portion having a surface for supporting a thoracic region of a body;   a connecting member for connecting the lumbar portion and the thoracic portion and for aligning the lumbar portion and the thoracic portion; and   an adjustable cervical insert adapted for being inserted into the thoracic portion.   
   
   
       9 . The back support device of  claim 8  wherein the adjustable cervical insert comprises a cervical portion and a connecting member. 
   
   
       10 . The back support device of  claim 9  wherein the thoracic portion comprises a hollow opening and the connecting member of the adjustable cervical insert is adapted to be inserted into the hollow opening. 
   
   
       11 . The back support device of  claim 9  wherein the cervical portion has a thickness and the back support device further comprises an attachment device for the cervical portion for making the cervical portion thicker. 
   
   
       12 . The back support device of  claim 8  wherein the thoracic portion has a thickness and the back support device further comprises an attachment device for the thoracic portion for making the thoracic portion thicker. 
   
   
       13 . The back support device of  claim 8  wherein the lumbar portion has a thickness and the back support device further comprises an attachment device for the lumbar portion for making the lumbar portion thicker. 
   
   
       14 . The back support device of  claim 8  wherein the cervical insert comprises a cervical portion comprised of a resilient cushion material and a connecting member. 
   
   
       15 . The back support device of  claim 8  wherein the lumbar portion comprises a resilient cushion material. 
   
   
       16 . The back support device of  claim 8  wherein the thoracic portion comprises a resilient cushion material. 
   
   
       17 . A back support device comprising:
 a lumbar portion having a surface for supporting a lumbar region of a body;   a thoracic portion having a surface for supporting a thoracic region of a body and a hollow opening;   a connecting member for connecting the lumbar portion and the thoracic portion and for aligning the lumbar portion and the thoracic portion; and   a cervical insert having a cervical portion for supporting a cervical region of a body and a connecting member adapted for being inserted into the hollow opening in the thoracic portion.   
   
   
       18 . The back support device of  claim 17  wherein the lumbar portion has a thickness and the back support device further comprises an attachment device for the lumbar portion for making the lumbar portion thicker. 
   
   
       19 . The back support device of  claim 17  wherein the thoracic portion has a thickness and the back support device further comprises an attachment device for the thoracic portion for making the thoracic portion thicker. 
   
   
       20 . The back support device of  claim 17  wherein the cervical portion has a thickness and the back support device further comprises an attachment device for the cervical portion for making the cervical portion thicker.
