Abstract
A saddle device includes a rigid saddle base having a lateral flange extending downwardly from an outer periphery of a support portion. A foam padding is mounted on a convex outer surface of the saddle base. A supporting unit is disposed fixedly under the saddle base. A resilient cushioning unit includes a cushion member having a base portion disposed fixedly between the supporting unit and a concave inner surface of the saddle base, and a cushioning portion that extends integrally and upwardly from the base portion and through a hole in the saddle base and a through hole in the foam padding. A cover layer covers the foam padding, and has a transparent portion aligned with the through hole in the foam padding.
