Inflatable hand pillow

Abstract

An inflatable pillow is disclosed, as for elevating the hand during a period of healing. A pair of inflatable base chamber sections define an L-shape to engage the human upper limb with elbow flexed at an angle of some 90.degree.. A pair of inflatable lateral chamber sections somewhat triangular in profile are affixed at the sides of the L-shaped member for retaining the configuration and providing dimensional cushioning. The interior chambers of the inflatable sections are interconnected, and a flex valve is provided for inflating and deflating the pillow. A pair of strap members bridge the lateral sections to close the pillow about the upper limb. As disclosed, the structure comprises transparent sheet, vinyl-like material.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
