Abstract An adjustable head rest for chaise lounges that allows a person to lie on their stomach without the necessity of turning their head. The head rest is constructed of a frame that fits between the slats of an existing chaise lounge and is adjustable by moving the portion beneath the slats in toward or away from the lounge. The extended end of the frame has a head support in the form of a strap attached across the frame. The head support is mounted on an angle portion of the frame that provides a comfortable position to rest the forehead. In a preferred embodiment of the invention the frame is in a U-shaped construction with the head support being slidable from an open end of the U-shape frame to the closed end to allow the adjustable head rest to be reversible for use with most types of chaise lounges. The U-shaped frame preferably has hinges and telescoping arms to allow the head rest to collapse to a small package for ease of transporting.
An adjustable head rest for chaise lounges comprising: an elongate U-shaped frame having a pair of parallel bars joined at one end by a cross-bar so that said frame is closed at one end and open at the other, said U-shaped frame being constructed to fit between alternate cross-straps of said chaise lounge; a head support slidably mounted on and spanning an end of said parallel bars so that said head support can be slidably moved from one end of said U-shaped frame to the other; whereby said head rest can be adjustably mounted on a chaise lounge by inserting either end of said U-shaped frame between alternate cross-straps.
