Definitions

the present invention relates to a bed base with articulated slats, at their ends, in a support frame.
the present invention aims to provide such a "bowl” slatted base.
the present invention relates to a bed base with articulated slats, by their ends, in a support frame, characterized in that the support frame is embedded in a sheath of elastic, molded material, having a upper surface inclined upwards, from the inside to the outside, and giving the sheath the shape of a bowl, the ends of the slats being themselves embedded in the elastic material filling the inside of the frame.
the bed frame has a cup-shaped and the ends of the slats, rooted in the elastic material, retain their two degrees of freedom mentioned above.
the bed base of the invention therefore simultaneously has the advantages of bed base with slatted base.
the fairing sheath enveloping the frame is itself wrapped in a filling fabric.
the support frame of the bed base of the invention is mounted on a support, and it includes return leaf springs in the rest position of the ends of the slats, reinforcing the action of the elastic material.
the bed base of the invention of FIG. 1 comprises a support frame 1, of generally rectangular shape. Can be made of wood, it can also be made of other materials and preferably metal, or plastic. At least the longitudinal uprights, or long sides, of the frame are hollow to receive the ends 2 of slats 3, as described below. More precisely, these long sections are profiles with cross section substantially in the form of a U, the inner vertical branch 4 of the U being substantially longer than the outer branch 5. Openings 6 for receiving the ends of the slat 2 are made at regular intervals , in the interior vertical branches 4 of the two long sides of the frame, two by two facing each other, respectively. These are rectangular openings, of length very slightly greater than the width of the slats 3, and of width allowing the vertical and rotating movement of the ends of the slat.
the frame 1 is mounted on a support 7, which in this case is also an inverted U-shaped section profile.
the frame projects from the vertical branches of the support.
the frame 1 and the support 7 are fixed to each other by their bottoms, that of the support 7 being provided with screw passage holes 8 and that 12 of the frame l, of tapped bosses 9 for receiving the screws 8.
the screws 8 were introduced through the lower opening 10 made between the branches of the support 7.
Each boss 9 of the bottom 12 of the frame 1 receives a spring blade, here with two separate branches 13, 14, each provided with one end 15 shaped to cooperate with the boss and slide along it and another end 16 fixed on the bottom of the frame.
the end 15 of each blade branch could be folded down towards the bottom of the frame into a free tongue 17 which substantially follows the external wall of the associated boss 9. It would also have been possible to use a monobloc blade, provided with a central opening for passage of the boss 9.
the end 2 In the rest position, and in particular under the action of the branches 13, 14 of the leaf spring, which is added to the action of the elastic material which will be discussed below, and a batten end 2 having been introduced through the opening 6 in the frame l, the end 2 is biased upwards, in abutment against the upper wall 18 of the opening 6 (fig. 1, 3).
the tongues 17 may not cooperate with the boss 9 and be located above it, as is also the case in the example shown in the drawings.
the end of the batten can either be lowered vertically in the opening 6, or pivot around its longitudinal axis 19, or be entrained in these two vertical and rotational movements, so that the slats 3 of the bed base, as a whole, adapt as harmoniously as possible to the person's body.
the slat considered at its end 2 pivoted about its axis 19 the branch 13 of the leaf spring then being under stress, with its tongue 17 lowered against the boss 9 to the bottom 12 of the frame.
the branch 14 of the leaf spring also under stress, but much less than the other, is only very slightly lowered, by its tongue 17, only halfway up the boss 9.
the frame 1 is embedded in a sheath, or fairing, made of molded elastic synthetic material, the same material also filling the inside of the frame, between the branches and the bottom of its profile.
this elastic material preferably a polyurethane foam
the ends of the slat 2, which are articulated therein, are returned to the rest position against the upper wall 18 of the openings 6, this material leaving the ends of the slat their two degrees of freedom. It is the return action of this elastic material which is reinforced by that of the leaf spring 13, 14.
this elastic material allows anchoring of the ends of the slat in the frame of the bed base.
the fairing 20 of generally trapezoidal shape, has an upper surface 21 inclined upwards, from the inside, in this case from the upper part of the inner vertical branch 4 of the frame, towards the outside, giving the fairing a bowl shape.
the width of the fairing 20 is substantially double that of the frame, and, vertically, the fairing does not extend here down to the foot of the support 7, but only substantially up to a third of its height, whether it rests on the ground or not.
the fairing 20 is wrapped in a finishing fabric 22, giving the slatted base of the invention a look of so-called upholstered base. So that the fabric remains well pressed against the synthetic foam sheath, it is folded inwardly of the frame, beyond the openings 6, the upper wall 18 and the lower wall 23 of which are, for this purpose, also folded towards the interior, as shown in fig. 1.
the coating and filling of the support frame 1 of the bed base of the invention is carried out by injection into a two-part mold, the internal space of which corresponds to the external shape of the sheath. Before injection, the tissue is placed against the interior walls of the mold, the injection operation also already causing the tissue to adhere to the injected material.
the folding of the fabric inward, after the formation of the sheath and before the anchoring of the ends of the batten aims to perfectly ensure its maintenance around and on the fairing sheath.
FIG. 5 We have just described a box spring with a support frame formed by two long continuous sides, just like the short sides.
at least the long sections of the support frame of the bed base of the invention are no longer continuous, but each comprise a plurality of elementary frame portions 50 fitted into each other , and mounted on the support like the continuous sides of the frame described above.
Each unit element 50 of these panels contains a leaf spring for one end of the batten, as already described, or any other equivalent elastic means.
These elements 50 are associated between them two by two, here by pairs of male 51 - female 52 members respectively secured to adjacent transverse walls 53, 54 of two neighboring elements 50 thus in the form of a box.
the elements of at least two pairs of adjacent elements belonging respectively to the two long sides of the support frame, opposite one from the other, are not nested by their adjacent walls.
the elements of each of these pairs are shortened, lengthwise, at least in line with opposite internal partitions 55, 56, respectively, the elastic material filling the space between these elements thus dissociated.
the long sides of the support include hinges, or other similar means. It is thus possible, from these areas, to raise the long discontinuous sections of the support frame, the support and, with them, the associated mattress, and further increase the services offered to the user.
