Definitions
- the invention relates to a spring mattress in which springs are provided in a covering, which are arranged in rows next to one another and are each fixed to a stiffening grid at both ends.
- the coil springs of a spring mattress known from practice are made of steel.
- the steel material is rejected by some users of the spring mattress because it can induce small electrical currents which, in the opinion of these users, can have negative effects on the user.
- the well-known replacement of the coil springs by fillings made of plastic foam, hair or straws avoids the electrically conductive steel, but also eliminates the special spring effect that can be achieved with pretensioned coil springs.
- the spring mattress according to the invention is solving this problem, characterized in that the helical springs are formed by bent rattan tube.
- Rattan tube can be bent into the shape of coil springs using techniques known per se and the rattan tube coil springs have spring mattress spring properties which are very similar to those of steel coil springs.
- the rattan tube coil springs also withstand the necessary preload.
- the outer dimensions of the usable rattan cane coil springs are comparable to those of steel coil springs, so that the rattan tube coil springs can be easily processed in spring mattresses.
- Rattan cane is therefore a very suitable wood material for the spring elements of spring mattresses.
- stiffening grids are each formed by strips or struts made of wood material.
- Coil springs made of rattan tube are slightly easier to bend or push away to the side than coil springs made of steel. That is why the use of stiffening grids, the strips or struts of which not only absorb tension but also pressure in the longitudinal direction, makes sense.
- the wood material is e.g. Rattan cane.
- the coil springs are also called coil springs or coil springs.
- Spring mattress is not only to be understood as an elongated mattress for a bed that can be inserted into a frame, but also a cushion of a sofa or armchair that is or is permanently installed in a frame. There is usually a mat-like intermediate layer between the coil springs and the sheath.
- the number of rattan tube coil springs per unit area is in the order of the number of steel coil springs per unit area.
- the number of helical revolutions of the rattan tube helical spring is of the same order of magnitude as the number of helical revolutions of the steel helical spring.
- Rattan cane is also called rattan cane.
- the rattan tube coil springs used according to the invention consist of peeled or unpeeled rattan tube.
- the rattan tube is, for example, a round tubular tube with a diameter of 8-25 mm.
- the rattan tube can also be a half tube, which is obtained by splitting a full tube in the middle and whose smaller cross-sectional dimension or "half diameter" is 8-25 mm.
- the diameter of the steel wire of the steel coil springs is approx. 2 mm.
- the rattan tube coil spring can be e.g. Manufacture by soaking a rattan tube in water, wrapping it in a soaked state on a core and letting it dry. In another type of manufacture, the rattan tube is heated in a hot gas, wound up on a core in the heated state and thus allowed to cool.
- the casing of the coil springs and their stiffening grids are e.g. formed by accommodating each coil spring in a closed sack made of textile material and arranging the sacks side by side and connecting them together, e.g. are hooked together.
- the connecting devices and the bags form a stiffening grid, on which the coil springs are fixed at both ends. It is also possible to combine the outer turns of each coil spring into rings and to connect the rings of adjacent coil springs to one another in order to obtain the desired stiffening grid.
- the rattan tube coil springs are usually installed in the spring mattress under pre-tension, because this eliminates free travel of the coil springs and compensates for inequalities in the spring forces.
- the rattan cane coil springs can be used in the spring mattress with suitable production even without pretension. The pre-tension is reached when the bags mentioned above are sufficiently short.
- tension threads running in the axial direction of the helical springs are provided for the purpose of pretensioning.
- the spring mattress according to the drawing is rectangular in the outer dimensions and has a self-contained covering 1, in which a self-contained, envelope-like, mat-like intermediate layer is provided. Inside are four parallel rows of coil springs 3, which are held slightly compressed by the casing 1 under pre-tension. At both ends of the coil springs 3, a stiffening grid 4 is provided from longitudinal and transverse strips.
