1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to detachable cushions and more particularly pertains to a portable seat cushion designed to be attached directly to a user's clothing.
2. Description of the Prior Art
The use of detachable cushions is known in the prior art. However, these cushions are generally designed to be attached to existing seat structures and not to the body or clothing of a particular user. A good typical example of a prior art detachable cushion is to be found in U.S. Pat. No. 4,212,496 which issued to A. Kirkham, Jr. on Jul. 15, 1980. This patent discloses a detachable cushion for the seat of ski lift chairs and is usable for the purpose of providing some measured degree of comfort and dryness to a chair user. However, when a ski lift chair is not being utilized, it is continually exposed to ambient weather conditions which effects both its comfort and dryness. As such, there appears to exist a need for some type of cushion which could be utilized on a ski lift chair or under similar conditions wherein such cushion could be maintained in a dry condition until its use is necessitated. In this respect, the present invention substantially fulfills this need.
