Definitions
- the present invention relates to a mattress or a cushion at least one inflatable or with a pumpable filling medium fillable upholstery element with a device to regulate the filling pressure.
- air cushion mattresses are transverse to the length of the mattress, upholstery elements parallel to each other or Air chambers, individually inflatable.
- the air chambers are in filling and Support material embedded and preferably with several layers covered with wool and silk.
- the inflation socket of the upholstery elements are advantageously arranged laterally on the mattress body in such a way that they are easily accessible and yet protected and not distracting.
- a Such a mattress was developed by the applicant in 1983. Usually the inflation takes place with a respective to the desired cushion element attachable air pump. Any upholstery element can go through this Hand pump can be inflated to the desired hardness. However, since this Is cumbersome to use an electric pump proposed. Their operation is easier than with a hand pump, however, many customers still find it too complicated. The possibilities of an air cushion mattress are therefore in the Practice hardly used properly.
- EP 0 489 310 i.a. described a seat, the seat in a plurality is divided by part-forming chambers. These are with one Device for recording the pressure distribution on these partial areas connected.
- the facility is designed to improve the seating comfort a pressure equalization by increasing or Reduction of the pressure of individual partial areas takes place.
- the object of the invention is to provide a mattress or a cushion create that in terms of comfort, ergonomics and handling the previous known are superior.
- the mattress or the cushion according to the invention corresponds to the Subject of claim 1. Further advantageous Formations emerge from the dependent claims.
- a plurality of cushion elements 1 are arranged in the body of the mattress. These are U-shaped, so that there are two air or Form cushion chambers 2, which are connected by a lateral connecting chamber 3 connected and inflatable together.
- the so constructed Mattress body is surrounded by a protective cover 5, on the a layer of virgin wool 6 and a layer of Tussah silk 7 are applied. As usual, the whole thing is surrounded by a cover 8.
- a device 10 for regulating the air or Filling pressure housed in the mattress body In the area of the head or foot end 9, where upholstery chambers 2 anyway have no sense is a device 10 for regulating the air or Filling pressure housed in the mattress body. This is over lines 11 connected to the inflatable cushion elements 1, with each Upholstery element 1 leads a separate, own line 11.
- the facility 10 is connected to a power supply unit 12 via a power line. This serves on the one hand as a transformer to convert the mains current 13 into low current, preferably 24 volts to transform and on the other hand as Receiver for a remote control 14. This is preferably wireless.
- the transformer is also coupled to a mains isolation, which the power supply to the device 10 for regulating the air or filling pressure interrupts when these are not in operation needs, i.e. when the desired settings have been reached.
- the cushion elements 1 are therefore additionally constructed in such a way that they are also approximately inflated keep rectangular shape. This can be achieved, for example by making the upholstery chambers 2 of appropriately assembled, individual wall parts are constructed.
- the Wall parts are soft, but only stretchable to a limited extent, so that they are in the do not disturb the little inflated state, when inflating harder however, bulge only slightly. It is important that each time Lying surface lying wall of the cushion chamber 2 as flat as possible In this way, there is an approximately flat lying surface corresponds approximately to that of a slatted frame. Especially with hard inflated, roundish hoses, as they were usual up to now, the result would be a less comfortable lying surface with noticeable Ribs, which form uncomfortable pressure points, are relaxing Are a hindrance to sleep. A harder inflation was therefore so far not possible in practice. Due to the almost flat falling Lying surface, so are both the lying comfort and the possible use the mattress significantly improved.
- the device 10 for regulating the air or filling pressure which preferably has a diaphragm vacuum pump is designed so that each individual line 11 can be acted upon with its own pressure.
- the pump has five different valves. Is conceivable of course also a mattress with a smaller or larger one Number of separately inflatable cushion elements 1.
- the device 10 is equipped with a programmable controller, by which the Upholstery elements 1 can be regulated individually according to a manufacturer's specification and / or according to the individual wishes of the user.
- In 3 shows a pressure distribution diagram as an example. This is divided into five areas according to the number of upholstery elements 1. According to a pressure scale 16, which here extends to 300 millibars, the individual cushion elements 1 can be inflated. Logically, the pressure in the buttocks area 17 must be selected the greatest while the other areas must be graded accordingly. In the leg area 21 the lowest pressure is required.
- the control, or the program of the device 10 for regulation the filling pressure is preferably designed so that the user the desired Hardness in the setting range between a given one minimum and maximum pressure can set. In this way ensures that the upholstery chambers 2 are not damaged can.
- the control system has at least one basic setting specified. It is of an average weight of the user. To people of any weight To allow comfortable lying, the device 10 and their Control designed so that a fully automatic, individual Weight adjustment is done. Due to the weight of the mattress, or person lying on the inflated cushion elements 1, a specific, individual load on the valves of the device 10 different pressure that over electronic sensors and / or over pressure valves connected to the control is detected. These valves and / or sensors could of course also be spatially separated be arranged by the device 10.
- control program can be designed so that each lying pressure triggers a certain pump pressure, be it over specified, stored values or via a predefined arithmetic operation.
- the Controls are therefore either a plurality of lying and pump pressure values predefined in such a way that one bearing on a cushion element 1 Lying pressure, similar to a table, each with a certain pump pressure corresponds or an arithmetic operation is specified that the carries out individually required conversion.
- the cushion elements 1 up to a correspondingly high Inflated pressure. With a light person, however, the air becomes like this drained far from the cushion elements 1 until the specified values are reached.
- the remote control 14 is shown in FIG. 4 with the corresponding control buttons 22 - 32 provided.
- the corresponding control buttons 22 - 32 are preferably the outline 33 of a human on the remote control mapped so that the location of the control buttons assigned Upholstery elements 1 can be seen immediately.
- the outlines 33 can also be shown on a display, wherein the control buttons arranged on the latter are sensor buttons can.
- the Control button 32 can be pressed. However, it is also possible to do this Control button 32 form a protected button, so that an unintentional Adjustment can be excluded.
- the button could do this be placed under a flap or behind a slide, for example also on the back of the remote control 14 it would also be to design the control button 32 so that it only with a tool, for example with a ballpoint pen tip is. It is also possible to assign several different degrees of hardness Buttons are available. It would also be possible to have more than one Memory keys designed to provide control buttons 32 so that several people call up their saved, individual settings can by pressing their personal key. This could include in Guest rooms or apartments can be useful. It was in this Context noted that this mattress in particular is also well suited for hotels of the higher category, since it is considered special service enables every guest the desired comfort to offer. Since only a single key has to be pressed for this purpose, this does not cause any difficulties for the guest or the staff.
- the mattress or the cushion is also different as described above.
- this medium is pumpable.
- the regulation of the Upholstery chambers 1 takes place in that the medium between them and pumping the pressure compensation chambers back and forth. It understands of course that the proposed air pumping system is easiest is. In any case, the customer gets an intelligent mattress offered an absolute maximum of individual lying comfort offers a minimum of operating effort.
