Overview
This patent, filed June 30, 2013 and granted June 16, 2015, protects a thoughtfully engineered portable head rest that combines ergonomic support with integrated storage and modular accessories. Inventors based in Houston, TX developed a head rest assembly whose non-parallel top and bottom surfaces create an adjustable tilted surface to accommodate multiple resting configurations. The claimed design integrates an upper and lower portion joined by a hinge, a secure latch, and a compartment sized and arranged for use as a lunch box or general storage. Removable, sanitized pads attach with hook-and-loop fasteners, and a detachable handle and multi-foot base deliver balanced portability and stable placement. A slide-in timer housed in a guided slot with a stopper exemplifies attention to user-focused details. Our firm’s drafting emphasizes clear claim scope and practical mounting and retention features to support enforceable protection across configurations and materials.
