Summary:A deployable support member assembly includes a housing and a resilient support member. The housing has a hollow interior and an opening to access the hollow interior. The resilient support member is movable between a first position disposed in the hollow interior and a second position extending from the hollow interior. The support member deformed by the housing when in the first position such that a spring force generated by the deformation of the support member urges the support member out of the housing. L'invention porte sur un ensemble d'éléments de support déployable, lequel ensemble comprend un boîtier et un élément de support élastique. Le boîtier a un intérieur creux et une ouverture pour accéder à l'intérieur creux. L'élément de support élastique est mobile entre une première position disposée dans l'intérieur creux et une seconde position s'étendant à partir de l'intérieur creux. L'élément de support est déformé dans le boîtier dans la première position, de telle sorte qu'une force élastique générée par la déformation de l'élément de support pousse l'élément de support hors du boîtier.
