Definitions

  • the invention is directed to a water bed with a plurality of hoses arranged in parallel and which can be filled with water and form water chambers.
  • a water bed is known from a brochure -1983 Somma-Mattress from the USA, in which a box-shaped frame made of upholstery material is placed on a fixed base frame. Individual, approximately rectangular water hoses spanning the entire bed length are placed in this frame in the longitudinal direction of the bed. The lying surface formed in this way is then spanned and finally encompassed and overlapped by an upper mattress.
  • a major disadvantage of the known bed construction is that neither the head part nor the foot part can be raised without having to give up the suspension comfort desired by the water filling.
  • a bed is also known which shows a chamber mattress, i.e. the individual water chambers are, as is usual with mattresses, surrounded by flexible elements. If faults occur here, repair and maintenance are very complex.
  • a comparatively simple solution with large-volume chambers bridging a foot, middle and head part is shown in US Pat. No. 3,644,950, which also relates to a hospital bed.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a solution with which a high lying comfort, optimal maintenance, and in particular use in the private area is made possible with simple means, whereby, as with conventional beds for private use, the head and foot sections are also adjustable should be and only minor faults should occur in the event of leakages.
  • this object is achieved according to the invention in that the hoses are arranged in carrying shells which are equipped with fixing webs and in that a number of hoses which are joined one behind the other in a row or row formed by the webs are arranged.
  • the invention achieves optimal lying comfort while maintaining the adjustability of the head, middle and foot sections. Because of the A! Partitioning of individual hose areas into brick-like subareas is achieved, on the one hand, that vibrations, once applied, are passed on only a comparatively short distance from the liquid. Since the hoses are shorter, it is also achieved that less liquid can occur in the event of a leak.
  • a very simple frame design is made possible with the support shells, which can be designed, for example, including the fixing webs as deep-drawn plastic tubs, which are suspended in the frame elements of the bed and carry the hoses necessary for the respective bed part, and any leaks that occur are caught directly by the tub u. Like. more.
  • the chamber-forming hoses are arranged in the longitudinal and / or transverse orientation in the individual bed surfaces in accordance with the desired suspension comfort.
  • rectified central surfaces can be formed in the individual bed parts, while hoses arranged transversely thereto form the edge regions u.
  • hoses arranged transversely thereto form the edge regions u.
  • the fixing webs are integrally formed on the support shells, which z. B. is easy to achieve in the manufacture of the deep-drawing technique.
  • the invention also provides that the fixing webs are equipped with recesses which allow ventilation. These recesses are expedient in the upper regions of the fixing webs in order to maintain the liquid tightness of the support shells, but also to enable cross ventilation through the bed surface.
  • a bed frame 1 is shown of a water bed, not shown in the figures, which has a head part 2, a middle part 3 and a foot part 4. These parts 2-4 each have their own frame, which is designated 5 in FIG.
  • Tub-shaped support shells 6 are inserted into this frame depends, which in the example shown are provided in one piece with transverse fixing webs 7. These webs are with the support shells z. B. was created in the deep-drawing process.
  • Water-filled hoses 8 are inserted between the fixing webs.
  • the tubes 8 can have different dimensions.
  • three hoses are arranged in a row in the foot part at the outer end of the foot, and four sub-hoses are arranged in a row in the row that follows, while the following rows have continuous hoses.
  • the hoses can also be provided at an angle to one another diagonally or in another arrangement.
  • the height of the fixing webs 7 is less than the total height of the water hoses 8, in the example shown, the height of the fixing webs 7 is less than half the height of the water hoses 8th
  • the invention is not limited to the exemplary embodiment described. So the described embodiment of the invention can be modified in many ways.
  • the invention is not limited to the adjustability shown only three bed areas, because, as already mentioned, the water hoses can be provided in a different arrangement or only in partial areas of the entire area, while the rest of the surface has conventional padding and. Like. more.
