Abstract

Hydration devices are disclosed, which overcome the drawbacks inherent to conventionally sunbathing in the absence of a nearby body of water. A hydration device includes a seat or lounger, two side panels, and a water port. The seat and the side panels are configured to retain water, at least up to a water level. The water port may be adapted to accept water to fill the hydration device, and may be disposed on the seat. Another hydration device includes a seat, a water port, a support structure, and a water impervious layer. The support structure includes two lateral bars disposed substantially parallel to each other and joined by two horizontal bars. The seat is disposed on the water impervious layer, which is disposed over the support structure. The water port is disposed on the seat and is configured to accept water to fill a fillable portion.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A hydrating device comprising:
 a seat;   at least one side panel coupled to the seat; and   at least one water port disposed on the seat and configured to accept water to fill a fillable portion enclosed by an inward surface of at least one of the at least one side panel and an upper surface of the seat.   
     
     
         2 . The hydrating device of  claim 1 , wherein at least one of the at least one water port is resealable. 
     
     
         3 . The hydrating device of  claim 1 , wherein the seat is disposed on at least one support structure. 
     
     
         4 . The hydrating device of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 at least one hose connection coupled to at least one of the at least one water port; and   at least one hose coupled to the at least one hose connection.   
     
     
         5 . The hydrating device of  claim 1 , wherein the seat is one of a chair, a lounger, and a sofa. 
     
     
         6 . The hydrating device of  claim 1 , wherein the seat is a foldable seat. 
     
     
         7 . A hydrating device comprising:
 a support structure comprising a plurality of lateral bars disposed substantially parallel to each other and joined by at least one horizontal bar;   a water impervious layer disposed over the support structure;   a seat disposed on the water impervious layer; and   at least one water port disposed on the seat and configured to accept water to fill a fillable portion.   
     
     
         8 . The hydrating device of  claim 7 , wherein the fillable portion is enclosed by the water impervious layer. 
     
     
         9 . The hydrating device of  claim 7 , wherein the fillable portion is enclosed by an inward surface of the water impervious layer and an upper surface of the seat. 
     
     
         10 . The hydrating device of  claim 7 , wherein the fillable portion is enclosed by an upper surface of the seat and an inward surface of at least one side panel coupled to the seat. 
     
     
         11 . The hydrating device of  claim 7 , wherein the water impervious layer is at least one of coupled to the support structure, coupled to the seat and imperviously coupled to the seat. 
     
     
         12 . The hydrating device of  claim 7 , wherein the seat is at least one of coupled to the support structure and imperviously coupled to the support structure. 
     
     
         13 . The hydrating device of  claim 7 , wherein at least one of the plurality of lateral bars is arc-shaped. 
     
     
         14 . The hydrating device of  claim 7 , wherein at least one of the at least one water port is resealable. 
     
     
         15 . The hydrating device of  claim 7 , further comprising:
 at least one hose connection coupled to at least one of the at least one water port; and   at least one hose coupled to the at least one hose connection.   
     
     
         16 . The hydrating device of  claim 7 , wherein the seat is one of a chair, a lounger, and a sofa. 
     
     
         17 . The hydrating device of  claim 7 , wherein the seat is a foldable seat. 
     
     
         18 . The hydrating device of  claim 7 , wherein the water impervious layer is a tarp.
