Air permeable cushion

An air permeable cushion including a horizontal base plate, a plurality of spring units erected on said base plate, and an upper covering disposed on said spring units and enveloping said spring units therein, wherein the improvement comprises:

• said base plate having several holes formed therethrough;
• said covering being made of an air permeable cloth;
• each of said spring units including:
• a bellows tube being made of a flexible material and having a horizontal bottom wall which abuts against said base plate and which has a check valve communicated with a corresponding one of said holes of said base plate in order to prevent air in said bellows tube from flowing out of said bellows tube through said bottom wall while permitting air to flow from said corresponding one of said holes of said base plate into said bellows tube through said bottom wall, a horizontal top wall which abuts against said covering and which has several holes formed therethrough, and an accordion-like peripheral wall which interconnects said top and bottom walls so that, when pressure is applied on said covering, said bellows tube contracts, thereby causing air to flow through said covering via said holes of said top wall;
• a coiled compression spring mounted within said bellows tube so that when said pressure applied on said covering is released, said bellows tube expands by action of said spring, thereby sucking in air via said check valve and said holes of said top wall;
• and
• wherein said bellows tube of each of said spring units has several rounded protrusions projecting upward from an upper surface of said top wall of said bellows tube so as to abut against said covering and provide a massage effect to a user.

• said bellows tube contracts, thereby causing air to flow through said covering via said holes of said top wall:
• a coiled compression spring mounted within said bellows tube so that when said pressure applied on said covering is released, said bellows tube expands by action of said spring, thereby sucking in air via said check valve and said holes of said top wall;
• and
• wherein each of said bellows tubes further has a positioning hole formed through said bottom wall, a column mounted securely on said top wall of said bellows tube at an upper end thereof and extending downward through said positioning hole of said bellows tube and through a corresponding one of said holes of said base plate, and a horizontal connection plate mounted securely on a bottom end of said column and abutting against a bottom surface of said base plate, said air permeable cushion further including a plurality of lever elements, each of said lever elements including a curved flexible bar which has a first end and a second end that are respectively connected to an adjacent pair of said connection plates, either of said first and second ends of each of said bars being capable of being depressed to raise the other of said first and second ends of said bar.

• and
• wherein said flexible curved bar of each of said lever elements is W-shaped.
