Abstract

An apparatus includes a containment member having a containment member interior cavity to contain foam precursor compartments, and a release member to release foam precursor components contained within the foam precursor compartments in response to a specific relative movement produced between the release member and the containment member. The apparatus may form a portion of a foam cushion forming apparatus.
