Study of comfort performance of novel car seat design for long drive

Back pain is a commonly known problem for drivers and passengers traveling in long route vehicles, especially buses and trucks. The problem becomes more severe for people suffering from bedsores. The current embodiment is a step toward addressing this problem. This method helps to regulate blood flow and provide comfort to the drivers and bedsore patients. Pneumatic cylinder and 24 semi-circular designed aluminum buds are used in the assembly that moves up and down along with the comforter foam and sheet to serve the purpose. This design is an active way of providing comfort and has significantly helped in reducing back and lower body pain. A survey was conducted by 100 participants to analyze the comfort of the current embodiment. The age of these participants was divided into two categories. Results showed that comfort varies with age and pressure. It was concluded from the survey that young people from 20 to 30 years appreciate high pressure, whereas elderly people from 30 to 50 years like low pressure. The results from analysis of variance were found to be significant with feedback results. This system is also helpful in regulating blood flow. It was concluded that most people like high pressure and the first pattern.
