Definitions

  • the invention relates to a blanket, in particular a duvet according to claim 1.
  • a blanket, in particular a bedspread, with a cover consisting of two cover sheets, a filling and an intermediate sheet arranged between the two cover sheets is e.g. known from DE-U-7.715.468.
  • the intermediate sheet is arranged centrally between the two cover sheets and divides the filling space into two parts, which are filled differently.
  • Half of the filling can consist of natural down or feathers, while the other half of the filling can consist of an unconsolidated nonwoven fabric, artificial down or the like. can exist.
  • the intermediate sheet known from this DE-U-7.715.468 only serves to separate the two different filling halves from one another. Because of the down used, the intermediate sheet, which is usually made of a woven fabric, must be "down-proof" so that the down does not migrate through the intermediate sheet.
  • the two cover sheets are connected to one another through the intermediate sheet by means of a quilting.
  • a blanket in particular a bedspread, is now also proposed, in which spherical fiber aggregates made of spherically entangled fibers are used as the filling. These fiber aggregates make it very easy to design such a blanket.
  • a duvet is essentially intended to create a standing air cushion between a person using the blanket and the environment. If there is a lot of air between the filling components, the blanket has a heat-insulating effect due to the - still - air.
  • a sleeping bag which has two superimposed, each quilted blanket, in which a perforated, reflective layer is arranged on the side of the blanket facing away from the body above the upper cover sheet. There is still air between the two ceilings, the quilting of which is offset from one another. Both blankets are filled with a filling made of plastic fibers. A moisture-repellent layer made of polyamide is arranged above the two ceilings. One of the two perforated layers thus lies between the two blankets, while the other is arranged between the top blanket and the moisture-repellent layer.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a generic blanket in which the heat transfer through this blanket is significantly reduced.
  • the intermediate sheet consists of a thin film which has elongated slots.
  • This film reduces the possibility of rapid air exchange through the ceiling, but allows sufficient passage for moisture and gases.
  • Such a film is e.g. from a plastic, since a plastic film is itself gas-tight, but the slots can still exchange air and moisture to a limited extent.
  • this foil is a metal foil, which has the advantage that it reflects the heat that strikes it.
  • a metal foil is very sensitive to mechanical stress and can therefore be gradually destroyed over a long period of use.
  • a film made of a coated plastic in particular a plastic film coated with aluminum, is therefore preferably used. This combines the advantages of plastic foil with those of metal foil.
  • the heat loss through the blanket is reduced especially in the area of quilting seams, because the Foil arranged in the ceiling both hinders heat convection and also radiates the heat back again.
  • This blanket 1 is stitched here. But it could also be a quilted blanket 1.
  • the filling 4 consists - here - of spherical fiber aggregates made of spherically entangled fibers, which e.g. can have a diameter of 3 to 15 mm.
  • the filling 4 can also be made of conventional filling materials such as down, feathers, nonwoven or the like. consist. A mixture of different filling materials can also be present.
  • the individual fiber aggregates forming the filling 4 are shown larger. In reality, much more fiber aggregates are arranged in the ceiling 1 than can be represented here. The fiber aggregates are also spatially closer to one another, and even individual fibers of one aggregate can penetrate into another aggregate.
  • the film 5 is arranged centrally between the two cover sheets 2 and 3 of the ceiling 1, with about the same amount of filling materials 4 on both sides of the film 5.
  • Different filling materials 4 can be arranged on both sides of this film 5; it can also be a mixture.
  • the film 5 only comes into contact with the two cover sheets 2 and 3 in the area of the quilting, otherwise there are 2 or 3 filling materials 4, here fiber aggregates, between the film 5 and the respective cover sheet.
  • the film 5 is arranged adjacent to the one cover sheet 2.
  • the film 5 even lies directly on this cover sheet 2.
  • the film 5 according to FIG. 2 only comes into contact with the other cover sheet 3 in the area of the quilting, otherwise only fiber aggregates of the filling 4 are arranged between the film 5 and the other cover sheet 3.
  • a blanket 1 according to the embodiment according to FIG. 2 can now be used with the film 5 at the bottom or at the top.
  • the film 5 is at the bottom, then more heat, moisture etc. accumulates under the ceiling 1, which can be used advantageously when it is very cold or when the person using the ceiling 1 - e.g. because of flu or the like - wants to sweat.
  • the film 5 If the film 5 is on top, moisture and heat can penetrate into the ceiling 1. Moisture can escape through the slotted film 5 on top. The film 5, especially if it is metallized, radiates the heat in the ceiling 1 back towards the people underneath.
  • FIGS. 3 to 8 now show different designs of the film 5.
  • this film 5 consists of a plastic film which can also be vapor-coated with metal. Aluminum is preferably used as the metal.
  • Elongated slots 6 arranged in the film 5 and penetrating them completely are arranged in rows, a distinction being made between rows in the longitudinal direction of the slots 6 and rows transversely or obliquely thereto.
  • the slitting of foils 5 is generally known, e.g. referred to DE-A-1.915.523.
  • FIG. 3 now shows slots 6, which are arranged both in rows seen in their longitudinal direction, as well as perpendicular to them. Slots 6 arranged perpendicular to one another have a distance here which corresponds approximately to the slot length, while the distance of the slots 6 from one another corresponds in the longitudinal direction to approximately half the slot length. Slot-free areas between the slots 6 seen in the longitudinal extent thereof are arranged here on lines that are perpendicular to the longitudinal extent of the slots 6.
  • Figure 4 shows an arrangement of slots 6 which are arranged in rows in the longitudinal direction, the slots 6 of adjacent rows being arranged in a gap, i.e. the slots 6 of adjacent rows are each arranged where the first row is slot-free. Slots 6 of adjacent rows are here offset from one another. The distance between the longitudinal rows from one another can be between half and a whole slot length, the same applies to the distance of the individual slots 6 from one another in a longitudinal row. Slot-free areas are arranged here on lines which enclose an angle of approximately 30 ° with the longitudinal extent of the slots 6.
  • the staggered arrangement of the slots 6 allows them to open transversely to their longitudinal extent in the event of a mechanical pull, the webs 7 arching out of the plane between the slots 6.
  • Such a film 5 can therefore, if necessary - if the film 5 is stretched transversely to the longitudinal extent - a larger air exchange takes place.
  • This stretching of the film 5 can be carried out by stretching the entire ceiling 1, but also in particular by exerting pressure perpendicularly on the film 5, e.g. the ceiling 1 is pressed out of its plane at one or more points.
  • FIG. 5 shows arcuate slots 6, the spacing of which, viewed in the longitudinal extent of the slots 6, is approximately one Slot length corresponds, while the distance of the slots 6 seen transversely thereto is greater than a slot length.
  • the arc here corresponds to approximately one sixth to one twentieth of a circular line.
  • the parts of the filling material 4 can bulge a U-shaped scale formed by the slot 6 somewhat out of the film plane, in particular if a load is exerted perpendicularly on the surface of the ceiling 1 and the film 5.
  • FIG. 6 shows an arrangement of slots 6, in which longitudinal rows of slots 6 alternate in this longitudinal extent with rows parallel thereto, in which the slots 6 are arranged perpendicular to this longitudinal extent.
  • the transverse slots 6 lie in a line which passes through the "longitudinal" slots 6 in the middle.
  • FIG. 7 shows a similar arrangement, with the "transverse" slots 6 each lying in transverse rows that intersect the longitudinal rows in slot-free areas.
  • FIG. 8 shows a configuration similar to FIG. 7, only two slots 6 are arranged in pairs here. Each pair of slots 6 has a web 7 between them. These webs 7 can be slightly arched out by parts of the filling material 4 if the ceiling 1 and thus the film 5 arranged in it are not stretched in their plane of extension.
  • the slots 6 can have a length between 2 and 10 mm. The smaller the length of the slots 6, the more heat-proof the blanket 1 becomes, but the less moisture can also penetrate through the blanket 1.
  • the distance between adjacent slots 6 in the longitudinal direction can correspond to about half to a whole of the slot length. Likewise, the distance between adjacent slots 6 can correspond approximately to half to a whole of the slot length transversely to the longitudinal extent of the slots 6.
  • the slots 6 are cut into the film 5 without material being removed. In the unloaded state the film 5, the slots 6 are therefore closed.
  • the blanket 1 when it is filled with filler material 4, it presses unevenly on the areas of the film 5 adjoining the slots 6, so that they can be pushed out of the film level slightly with more or less wide opening of the slots 6.
  • the permeability of the film 5 also depends on the selected shape and arrangement of the slots 6, with other slot shapes and arrangements not shown here being known to the person skilled in the art.
  • the film 5 has no slits in the area of the quilting, in the immediate vicinity of which there is generally also no filler material 4 6 on. Here it is prevented that gases and moisture can penetrate through the cover 1, although the film 5 is perforated by the stitching. It is advisable to use a film 5 which is capable of pressing against the sewing threads in order to allow only one passage between and in the sewing threads.
