Description

Technical area

The present invention relates to a base for lying down, sitting and / or for performing physical exercises according to the preamble of claim 1.

State of the art

Documents in the form of mattresses, sleeping mats, air mattresses, etc. have been an essential part of outdoor and camping activities for many years (e.g. US1916483A , US4688283A , US20190269252A1 ) and known as such in various designs. Documents should serve as comfortable sleeping pads and should be as light and compact as possible to transport. Current models meet these two basic properties very well. Documents are available in a wide variety of designs. These can differ in size, thickness, shape and the materials used. What all these documents have in common is that they can be brought into a more or less compact form for transport. Documents can be inflated like an air mattress ( 3 ), foam-filled (PU or other) and thus self-inflating, made of EVA foam, latex or another material, or made in some other way. Depending on the respective design principle, the documents can then be rolled up, folded up or vented and folded for transport. Most sleeping mats are then stowed in an accompanying transport bag for transport.

The disadvantage of previous documents is that they are only intended for lying or sleeping. Of course you can sit on it like a blanket. But then there is no back support or the like. Current documents therefore offer insufficient seating comfort, which is often sorely missed when camping, for example after a long and often strenuous hike. In order to remedy this, there are now special systems made up of a combination of bags, straps and, in some cases, rods into which the base is inserted or fixed and the base can thus be shaped like a seat with a backrest (e.g. US5384923A ). The disadvantages are, on the one hand, the additional costs and, on the other hand, the additional weight of these systems, since they do not replace a normal base, but mostly only supplement it.

Presentation of the invention

The present invention is based on the object of creating a pad which eliminates the aforementioned disadvantages and which meets all the above-described requirements for sleeping comfort and portability, but also offers high seating comfort due to its multifunctionality. The invention should not be significantly more voluminous and heavier and not significantly more expensive than comparable previous documents in packed form.

According to the invention, the above object is achieved according to the preamble of claim 1 in conjunction with the characterizing features. Advantageous refinements and developments of the base according to the invention are specified in the dependent subclaims.

The base according to the invention is formed from a flexible and / or elastic and flat shaped body which can be folded and / or rolled up at least in a first section to form at least one support profile.

This base is further characterized in that at least one first connecting means is provided in at least one area of the foldable or rollable first section of the molded body, which with at least one in at least one area of the second section that is not folded or rolled up to form a support or seat surface the second connecting means provided on the molded body can be connected in such a way that the folded or rolled up first section can be fixed on the second section to form at least one support profile.

The base according to the invention is preferably converted into a seat surface with back support, which is located on the floor, by partially rolling up and fixing the rolled up first section. The rolled up first section is fixed and serves as a back support. The remaining, not rolled up, second section serves as a seat and cushion for the buttocks. The fixing of the rolled up first section of the base can e.g. take place via snap fasteners that are attached to the edge of the pad in such a way that the male and female components of the snap fasteners match when rolled up, i.e. closing up, coming to rest on each other.

The connecting means for forming a reversible connection can advantageously also be formed as correspondingly corresponding hooks, eyes, click, toggle, carabiner or button fasteners, straps, belts or similar connecting parts.

Further goals, features, advantages and possible uses of the base according to the invention emerge from the following description of an exemplary embodiment with reference to the drawings. In this case, all of the features described and / or illustrated form the subject matter of the invention individually or in any combination, regardless of the summary in individual claims or their back-reference.

Implementation of the invention

How out 1 the document shown is evident 1 preferably formed from an inflatable mattress, on the sections 101 ' , 101 " several connecting means, each arranged at a distance 102 ' , 102 " at the edge of the molding 10 are provided, the fixation of course not necessarily having to be attached to the edge of the base.

In a particularly advantageous embodiment of the invention, the base comprises a receptacle 103 (please refer 2 ), which is designed to hold a liquid container (e.g. a common beverage bottle between 0.33-1.5l), and the at least one third connecting means 1030 having which with the at least one first connecting means 102 ' , with the at least one first connecting means 102 '' or with at least one other connecting means 102 ''' on the first section 101 ' for reversible fixation of the recording 103 on the pad 1 is reversibly connectable.

The at least third connecting means 1030 is preferably on the recording 103 in the upper part of the recording 103 arranged so as to prevent the recording from falling over 103 and to effectively prevent the liquid container located therein.

It is also advantageous if the distance between the lower edge of the folded or rolled up first section 101 ' and the first connecting means 102 " or the further connecting means 102 ''' the distance between the lower edge of the recording 103 and the third connecting means 1030 corresponds.

The support according to the invention is not limited in its design to the preferred embodiments specified above. Rather, a large number of design variations are conceivable, which make use of the solution shown even if the design is fundamentally different.
