Abstract

The present invention relates to a cushioning sheet for improving body balance and blood flow. The cushioning sheet includes a base which has a plurality of first through holes formed therein, a plurality of cushioning members which support the base, have a first cushioning space for relieving pressure applied from the outside formed thereby, and further have a second through hole formed between the first cushioning space and the outside, and a sensing unit which senses at least one of temperature and pressure applied to a plurality of the cushioning members.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . Cushioning sheet, comprising:
 a base which has a plurality of First through holes formed therein;   a plurality of cushioning members which support the base, have a first cushioning space for relieving pressure applied from the outside formed thereby, and further have a second through hole formed between the first cushioning space and the outside; and   a sensing unit which senses at least one of temperature and pressure applied to a plurality of the cushioning members.   
     
     
         2 . Cushioning sheet according to  claim 1 , characterized in that a plurality of the cushioning members comprise a first impact-absorbing member which has the first cushioning space formed thereby and a first post. 
     
     
         3 . Cushioning sheet according to  claim 2 , characterized in that the first impact-absorbing member comprises a first pressurized portion which receives pressure applied from the outside and a first elastically-deformed portion which is elastically deformed in response to the pressure applied from the outside. 
     
     
         4 . Cushioning sheet according to  claim 3 , characterized in that any one of a plurality of the cushioning member comprises a second impact-absorbing member which is connected to the first post to have a second cushioning space formed thereby. 
     
     
         5 . Cushioning sheet according to  claim 4 , characterized in that the second impact-absorbing member comprises a second pressurized portion which receives pressure applied from the outside and a second elastically-deformed portion which is elastically deformed in response to the pressure applied from the outside. 
     
     
         6 . Cushioning sheet according to  claim 3 , characterized in that the cushioning sheet further comprises a fixing portion which is connected to the first post and allows the cushioning sheet to be fixed to a predetermined surface. 
     
     
         7 . Cushioning sheet according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the base and a plurality of the cushioning members are integrally formed. 
     
     
         8 . Cushioning sheet according to  claim 7 , characterized in that the first and second impact-absorbing members are formed in at least one of spherical, oval, triangular, quadrangular, polygonal shapes. 
     
     
         9 . Cushioning sheet according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the sensing unit may be one of the following sensors: a temperature sensor which senses temperature applied to the cushioning sheet; a pressure sensor which senses pressure applied to the cushioning sheet; and a fiber optic sensor which senses at least one of temperature and pressure applied to the cushioning sheet. 
     
     
         10 . Cushioning sheet according to  claim 9 , characterized in that the cushioning sheet further comprises a storage unit for storing results obtained from the sensing unit. 
     
     
         11 . Cushioning sheet according to  claim 9 , characterized in that the cushioning sheet further comprises a communication unit for transmitting the results obtained from the sensing unit to an external device. 
     
     
         12 . Cushioning sheet according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the cushioning sheet is made out of at least one of a heating material, an anion generating material, and a far-infrared-ray generating material. 
     
     
         13 . Cushioning sheet according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the cushioning sheet is applied to a sole of shoes. 
     
     
         14 . Cushioning sheet according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the cushioning sheet is applied to a mat for an exercise machine. 
     
     
         15 . Cushioning sheet according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the cushioning sheet is applied to an indoor mat.
