A cushion assembly for use with a support surface having a first restraint component and a second restraint component spaced apart from the first restraint component, the cushion assembly comprising:
- a cushion;
- a first engagement component coupled with the cushion, the first engagement component configured to engage the first restraint component;
- and
- a second engagement component coupled with the cushion, the second engagement component configured to engage the second restraint component,
- wherein the first engagement component and the second engagement component are coupled to an underside of the cushion such that:
- opposite ends of the first engagement component are each coupled with the underside of the cushion and a first intermediate portion of the first engagement component is uncoupled from the underside of the cushion;
- and
- opposite ends of the second engagement component are each coupled with the underside of the cushion and a second intermediate portion of the second engagement component is uncoupled from the underside of the cushion.
A cushion assembly for use with a first seat and a second seat, the first seat having a first seatbelt and the second seat having a second seatbelt, the first seat and the second seat being configured to be folded flat and to be arranged such that when the first seat and the second seat are folded flat, they cooperate to form an elongate horizontal surface, the cushion assembly comprising:
- an elongate cushion;
- a first seatbelt engaging portion disposed on an underside of the elongate cushion;
- a second seatbelt engaging portion disposed on the underside of the elongate cushion and spaced apart from the first seatbelt engaging portion by a first distance, the first distance corresponding with a second distance between the first seatbelt and the second seatbelt when the first seat and the second seat are folded flat and arranged to form the elongate horizontal surface;
- and
- a security belt engaged with the underside of the elongate cushion between the first seatbelt engaging portion and the second seatbelt engaging portion, the security belt configured to extend around an upper surface of the elongate cushion,
- wherein the first seatbelt engaging portion and the second seatbelt engaging portion are coupled to an underside of the elongate cushion such that:
- opposite ends of the first seatbelt engaging portion are each coupled with the underside of the elongate cushion and a first intermediate portion of the first seatbelt engaging portion is uncoupled from the underside of the elongate cushion;
- and
- opposite ends of the second seatbelt engaging portion are each coupled with the underside of the elongate cushion and a second intermediate portion of the second seatbelt engaging portion is uncoupled from the underside of the elongate cushion.
