## Abstract

A person support device comprises a body support, a first support loop, and a second support loop. The body support is configured to support at least a portion of a person. The first support loop is coupled to the body support and extends there from a first distance. The second support loop is coupled to the body support and is overlappingly coupled along a portion of the first support loop. The second support loop extends a second distance from the body support.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A person support device, comprising:
a body support configured to support at least a portion of a person;
a first support loop coupled to the body support and extending there from a first distance; and
a second support loop coupled to the body support and overlappingly coupled along a portion of the first support loop, the second support loop extending a second distance from the body support.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The person support device of claim 1, wherein the first support loop is defined by a portion of a binding coupled to the perimeter edge of the body support.

### Claim 3 (depends on 3)

The person support device of claim 3, wherein the binding is C-shaped and includes an upper surface and a lower surface.

### Claim 4 (depends on 3)

The person support device of claim 3, wherein a portion of at least one of the second support loop and the perimeter edge of the body support are positioned between the upper surface and the lower surface.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The person support device of claim 1, wherein the first distance is greater than the second distance.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The person support device of claim 1, wherein the second distance is greater than the first distance.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The person support device of claim 1, wherein the second support loop is coupled to the body support such that the first support loop is positioned between the second support loop and the body support.

### Claim 8 (depends on 1)

The person support device of claim 1, wherein the portion of the first loop that the second loop is overlappingly coupled to is connected to the body support.

### Claim 9 (depends on 1)

The person support device of claim 1, wherein at least a portion of the body support includes padding.

### Claim 10

A person support device, comprising:
a body support;
a first support loop coupled to the body support, the first support loop including an upper layer and a lower layer; and
a second support loop coupled to the first support loop such that a portion of the second support loop is positioned between the upper layer and the lower layer of the first support loop and extends along a portion of the first support loop.

### Claim 11 (depends on 10)

The person support device of claim 10, wherein the first support loop is defined by a portion of a binding coupled to the perimeter edge of the body support.

### Claim 12 (depends on 11)

The person support device of claim 11, wherein the binding is C-shaped.

### Claim 13 (depends on 10)

The person support device of claim 10, wherein the second support loop is also coupled to the body support.

### Claim 14 (depends on 10)

The person support device of claim 10, wherein the first support loop extends a first distance from the body portion and the second support loop extends a second distance from the body support, the first distance being greater than the second distance.

### Claim 15 (depends on 10)

The person support device of claim 10, wherein the second support loop is coupled to the first support loop along a substantial portion of the length of the first support loop.

### Claim 16

A support extension, comprising:
a first loop of a first length; and
a second loop of a second length, wherein the second loop is overlappingly coupled to the first loop along a substantial portion of the second length.

### Claim 17 (depends on 16)

The support extension of claim 16, wherein the first loop includes a first layer and a second layer and a portion of the second loop is positioned between the first layer and the second layer.

### Claim 18 (depends on 16)

The support extension of claim 16, wherein the first loop and the second loop are defined by a structure that is overlappingly coupled to itself.

### Claim 19 (depends on 16)

The support extension of claim 16, wherein the second length is less than the first length.

### Claim 20 (depends on 16)

The support extension of claim 16 wherein, the first loop includes a first end and a second end and the second loop includes a first end and a second end, wherein the second end of the second loop is overlappingly coupled to the second end of the first loop and the first end of the first loop is spaced apart a distance from the first end of the second loop.
