Definitions

  • the invention relates to a mattress for lying and / or seat devices with a mattress body made of movable material - in particular od foam, latex. Like. - And transverse to its longitudinal axis extending cavities for receiving rod-like elements according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the foam body consists of two flat body halves, each of which is provided on each directed to the other body half surface with mutually parallel Rinneneinformungen that extend transverse to the body longitudinal axis and each after assembly limit corresponding cavities.
  • Each cavity which opens at both ends to the longitudinal sides of the foam body, has at its boundary wall at least a horizontal support shoulder which extends parallel to the longitudinal axis of the cavity and lies in the intermediate region between the horizontal plane of symmetry of the cavity and its uppermost or lowermost extent.
  • Within each cavity at least four - mutually associated - support shoulders are arranged symmetrically.
  • each cavity contains an elongated cross-sectional profile in the horizontal direction and the - from the point of contact of the two foam body halves outgoing - profile contour runs initially convex to each support shoulder convex and from this to the opposite, lying on the same horizontal plane support shoulder.
  • tissue is sandwiched between the two foam body halves, and a moisture-absorbing rod-like member is secured within the cavity to the tissue, namely a fold-reinforced site of the tissue or a wick anchored to the tissue; the tissue is connected at the points of contact of the two foam body halves with the foam.
  • the inventor has set the goal to create a novel mattress body, which is able to be adapted to the needs of a rest-seeking body particularly well as well as the other breathable and resistant to moisture.
  • the rod-like element is designed as a spring element of a plurality of spaced apart and each connected by a profile strip plastic sleeves;
  • Each of the plastic collars comprises two of a plastic band of small width - preferably of 10 mm - shaped, radially joined together rings approximately oval contour whose mutually adjacent inner contour halves are connected together in the region of a center of the plastic sleeve.
  • a cross-sectional partial ring contour is integrally formed on the transverse web of the plastic sleeve, which in turn is connected at the center to the inner contour half of the associated oval ring at both ends.
  • the inner contour half should be approximately mirror-inverted to the outer contour half curved cross-section.
  • the ends of the contour halves which are adjacent to the central plane, are integrally formed on a semicircle contour of the same width, which partially surrounds an aperture; this is limited to the central plane by two transverse ribs formed on the contour halves, which serve as a fixing aid for a plug made of elastic material - or elastomeric cords - to be inserted in the opening as an additional holding element; the diameter of that elastic stopper moreover corresponds to the width of that breakthrough.
  • the two contours halves emanating from the semicircular contour are divided into a plurality of transverse strip-like sections of different thickness.
  • the thicknesses of the sections should be optimized thicknesses of between about 1.8 mm and 2.7 mm for a TEP material, but between about 0.9 mm and 1.6 mm for a POM material and optimized geometry.
  • the above-mentioned profiled strips crossing the oval rings and laterally projecting above these have a plug-in end with a plug-in groove at the end and a plug-in strip portion at the other end; the spaced apart plastic collars are connected by the inserted into the slot of a plastic sleeve plug-in end of the other plastic sleeve.
  • one square meter of preferably made of viscoelastic natural or synthetic latex and provided with lateral ventilation or ventilation mattress should be assigned about 230-240 plastic sleeves that offer the most point elastic suspensions.
  • the spring geometry according to the invention causes a rocking effect.
  • the connecting bar in the middle as well as the optimized wall thickness curves lead to a secure receiving surface like the regulation of the stiffnesses via fibers.
  • the expandable to any length connector between the plastic cuffs allows good handling and customization.
  • the mattress can be made firmer and softer overall.
  • the design according to the invention are to be regarded as additional effects of the mattress, that a lateral ventilation, ventilation and climate control is present and that it is heatable and coolable.
  • the max. Stresses at the same level of force can be reduced by about 60% (choice of material POM - acetal copolymer or polyoxymethylene or TPE - thermoplastic polyester - with different wall thickness distributions).
  • the geometry variant made of TPE exhibits higher permanent deformations under continuous load compared to the variant consisting of POM, whereby the TPE variant has a more favorable creep behavior. It should be noted that with the material model used, a relaxation of the deformations is not reflected in relief. In comparison to the ring concept according to the prior art, the deformations can be reduced by a factor of 2 as a result of viscoelastic material behavior (POM variant).
  • a rough material cost estimate results of the POM variant about 30% of the costs of the TPE variant (component volume, material costs).
  • the spring properties are significantly improved by the rocking effect - three spring forces against a force in a round spring - that is, overall ensures a much more point elastic suspension. Also, the spring properties are supported by the foam during rocking. As low, it has also been proven that the spring element can be turned around and his plastic cuffs can act individually and independently from each other by their connecting web in the middle outside. Also close the - by the Spring-groove system extendable as desired - spring elements cavities, which promote the ventilation of the mattress.
  • a mattress or a mattress body 10 of foam extend transversely to the longitudinal direction / channel-like openings 12, the contour according to Fig. 1 having two endwise slightly curved transverse surfaces 14 of width b of about 110 mm and the zenith height h of about 70 mm. Each of these transverse surfaces 14 merges at their cross-sectional ends in partial circle contours 16 whose diameter d is about 10 mm.
  • the two pitch circle contours 16 of one side are in a central one another Height h 1 assigned by about 35 mm and border on the other hand to a side strip 18 teilovalal contour.
  • This cross-sectional shape is adapted to the cross section of a introduced into the opening 12 spring element 20, which is made of plastic - preferably using acetal copolymers or polyoxymethylene (POM), thermoplastic polyester (TPE) or polycarbonate (PC) - shaped and described below becomes.
  • POM polyoxymethylene
  • TPE thermoplastic polyester
  • PC polycarbonate
  • the replaceable inserted spring element 20 consists of a plurality of frame-like plastic sleeves 22 of a cross-sectional length a of about 100 mm, the cross-sectional shape - as said - corresponds to the design of the breakthrough cross-section.
  • plastic collar 22 shown in plan view is formed of a plastic strip 24 of thickness e of about 1 mm and the width f of 10 mm here so that in side view two approximately oval rings 26 of the maximum central height q arise from here about 30 mm; the latter determines a central plane Q, which crosses through both oval rings 26 and in which the apex S of the ring 26 and the center Z of the plastic sleeve 22 defined below are located.
  • the adjacent transverse surface 14 of the opening 12 is adapted in terms of design and in each case passes endwise into a semicircular contour 28 of the inner diameter d 1 of approximately 3 mm.
  • an almost mirror-inverted inner contour half 29 of the oval ring 26 adjoins this semicircular contour 28.
  • the end maybertige semicircle contour 28 limits vertex-like an opening 30 of the free width a 1 from here 3 mm, on the other hand ends at two the two contour halves 27, 29 internally formed transverse ribs 32.

  • This Rubber stopper 50 is equipped with a molded-on head plate 48 as a stop element.
  • elastomeric cords in the four aligned rows of apertures 30 of the according Fig. 2 can be set or clipped into this interconnected plastic cuffs 22 to determine the compression hardness.
  • the two adjacent to the center Z of the plastic sleeve 22 inner contour halves 29 are joined together by a transverse web 36 of width f 1, for example, 6 mm, which is integrally formed on both sides in each case to a partial ring contour 34, which the two adjacent contour halves 29 of each of the two oval rings 26 connects.
  • This crossbar 36 passes through a centric profile strip 38. This protrudes on both sides of the oval ring 26 by a Kragnach k of about 10 mm.
  • the one end of the profile strip 38 is according to Fig. 5 designed as a hollow plug-in 39, in the plug-in groove 40, a plug strip portion is inserted as a spring 42 of an axially adjacent profile strip 38 ( Fig. 6 ).
  • the individual profile strips 38 form after joining a central longitudinal profile 44 as an axially central connecting web, which is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis M of the mattress 10 and can be selected for each length. Not shown is that about 235 plastic sleeves 22 per m 2 form a point-elastic suspension. The clear distance k 1 between two plastic sleeves 22 measures about 15 mm.
