Definitions

  • the subject relates to a mattress supporting base, comprising a fixed lower frame, an upper frame which is mounted directly onto the lower frame and which comprises movable upper frame members, as well as supporting means by means of which at least a portion of the upper frame is supported by the lower frame, which upper frame consists of longitudinal sections disposed transversely at a fixed distance in relation to one another, and traverse members extending between the longitudinal sections, which lower frame consists of lower longitudinal sections which are at a fixed distance in relation to one another in transverse direction.
  • a mattress supporting base according to the preamble of claim 1 is disclosed in US-A-6499162 .
  • This prior art mattress supporting base has a base provided with a sliding frame and a number of bed plate frames pivotably connected to the sliding frame.
  • the bed plate frames are furthermore supported with respect to the base by means of a number of link bars.
  • the sliding frame is displaced with respect to the base resulting in a pivoting movement of the link bars and of the bed plate frames.
  • WO 2007 010218 A2 discloses another mattress supporting base directed to a rigid curved backrest section with no indication as to how is realised the connection between the upper and lower frames.
  • a further mattress supporting base as disclosed in NL-A-9200992 has an upper frame provided with a network of interlocked helical springs which are spanned between the longitudinal sections of the frame.
  • a supporting mattress frame wherein the longitudinal sections thereof and possibly the cross-sections at the longitudinal ends thereof, which are in full view, have a slim line form that must be advantageous to the design of the spiral mattress support.
  • the longitudinal sections of the upper mattress are positioned directly on top of the longitudinal sections of the lower mattress in an effort to retain the general impression of a slim line construction.
  • a mattress may subsequently be placed upon the upper frame.
  • the upper frame between which the diagonally spanned helical springs are fastened may also be constructed as part of a so-called "box spring". In that case, a lower mattress is attached to the upper frame, upon which lower mattress further upper mattresses may be placed.
  • the invention further relates to a box spring, comprising a mattress supporting base, as claimed, as well as a fixed box spring mattress attached to this mattress supporting base.
  • the box spring mattress may comprise a circumferential element surrounding the outermost sections of the upper frame.
  • the box spring mattress may comprise a lower mattress.
  • the spiral mattress shown in figures 1, 2 and 6 comprises a fixed lower frame 1 and, in its entirety, the lower frame indicated by the numeral 2.
  • the upper mattress 3 is shown schematically on top of the upper frame 2.
  • the upper frame 2 comprises the movable upper frame members 4, 5 and 6.
  • the movable upper frame member 4 which is intended for supporting the body is attached by means of a hinge 8 to the fixed upper frame member 7. Further to this, the movable upper frame member 5 is attached to said upper frame member 7 by hinge 9
  • the further upper frame member 6 is attached by hinge 10 at the other end of the fixed upper frame member 7.
  • the upper frame members 5 and 6 are intended for the support of the legs.
  • the upper frame members 4, 5 and 6 may be moved between the folded down position, indicated by continuous lines, and the folded up position, indicated by interrupted lines, by support bodies and actuators 30, which are known and are indicated schematically. Instead of actuators, locking devices may also be applied which only secure the upper frame members in the desired position. Adjustment of the upper frame members is therefore performed manually.
  • a detachable soft trim 28 is attached all around the entire upper frame 2. This provides protection against the hard sections of the upper frame.
  • the upper frame member 4 consists of the upper longitudinal sections 11 and the upper transverse sections 22 which extends between there at the end; the upper frame member 5 consists of the upper longitudinal sections 12 and the upper frame member 6 consists of the upper longitudinal sections 13 and the upper transverse sections 23 which extends between these.
  • the fixed upper frame member 7 consists of the upper longitudinal sections 20. These upper longitudinal sections 11-13 and 20 are all jointly connected by traverse members 14, 15 extending transversely between the upper longitudinal sections which, as can be seen in the end view of figure 2 , have a downwardly curved shape.
  • the traverse members indicated with 14 are all attached to a movable upper frame member 4-6, the traverse members indicated with 15 are all attached to the upper frame member 7. These latter traverse members are therefore permanently attached to the lower frame 1.
  • the support surface 24, which is known, consists of interlocked helical springs and is spanned between the upper longitudinal sections 11-13 and 20.
  • the lower frame 1 consists of two lower longitudinal sections 16 and two lower transverse sections 17, as well as of feet 18 which are disposed at the corner points where the lower longitudinal sections and the lower transverse sections are attached to one another. Furthermore, fixed supports 19 are attached to the lower longitudinal sections 16 at the position of the traverse members 14.
  • the traverse members 14 which are attached to the movable frame members 4-6, are all provided opposite the corresponding supports 19 on the lower frame with supporting rubbers 21 which rest on the supports 19, as shown in figure 1 by continuous lines. These supporting rubbers 21 are arranged inwardly at a distance from the upper longitudinal sections 4-6, thus further enhancing the slim line appearance of the spiral mattress supporting base.
  • a soft edge trim 28 is attached to the outer side of the upper longitudinal sections 11-13 and 20 and of the upper traverse sections 22, 23.
  • a spiral mattress supporting base which corresponds to that of figures 1 and 2 , but onto which the box spring mattress indicated by 25 is coupled in its entirety.
  • This box spring mattress 25 consists of the lower mattress 27 and the circumferential element 26 attached to the circumference thereof, which covers the upper longitudinal sections 11-13 and 20 as well as the upper transverse sections 22 and 23 (the soft edge trim 28 is omitted here).
  • the upper mattress 3 is placed on top of this box spring mattress 25.
  • Figure 5 shows an embodiment wherein two adjacently arranged spiral mattress supporting bases according to the invention are coupled by means of coupling sections 29 which are attached to the transverse sections 17. In this embodiment only four feet 18 are present.
