摘要 A sleep assist device for use by a seated person consisting of a box-like three-sided pylon 10 that when placed on top of a seated person's lap, or on top of a suitable support surface, provides him/her with an adequate raised support for his/her head and also allows the seated person to embrace (to hug) said box-like three-sided pylon 10 by positioning his/her arms and hands over and around an embraceable volume 38 in a cozy and comfortable resting posture that, indeed, is conducive to relaxation and/or sleep. Meanwhile, a vertical back panel 14 (part of said embraceable volume 38) may contact said seated person's chest. The box-like three-sided pylon 10 when folded up for storage or transport is relatively small and lightweight (comparable in size to a periodical magazine) allowing a user to conveniently place it into: an airplane's seat back pocket, carry-on luggage, a ladies' handbag, a business briefcase or a suitcase, among others. This sleep assist device for a seated person is likely to be readily accepted by a relatively large percentage of passengers traveling by airplane, bus, train and/or in an automobile's rear seat, as well as by persons wishing to nap at their workplace, at home, while waiting at a hospital or office, or during camping or at a beach outing and, furthermore, by ailing persons confined to nursing homes that need to be seated in wheelchairs or sofas during extended periods of time. In addition, said box-like three-sided pylon 10 provides a novel, useful and unobvious medium to display: advertisements, the subject matter required on airline passenger's safety card, or business logos since its visible surfaces can be printed utilizing any of the available methods employed by the packaging industry, or may also have relevant labels affixed to its visible surfaces.
