Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a mattress and a slatted frame according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Slatted frames for beds are usually placed in bed frame or placed on bed frame.
  • a bed frame generally consists of two longitudinal frames and two transverse frames, which are joined together to form a rectangular frame.
  • the slatted frame also has longitudinal frames or longitudinal beams, which usually run parallel to those of the bed frame and on which spring slats, which are usually arranged at regular intervals and perpendicular to the longitudinal beams, are movably arranged.
  • the entirety of the slats forms a support surface for the mattress on the side facing away from the side members.
  • Slatted frames have recently come onto the market in which the above-mentioned longitudinal members have been offset inwards in relation to the lateral slatted frame. They run essentially parallel to each other and parallel to the longitudinal axis of the slatted frame. At regular intervals, in the longitudinal direction of the supports mentioned, resilient support modules which extend transversely to the side members are fastened to them.
  • Each of the support modules comprises a spring strip facing the mattress and at least one support means which supports the end regions of the spring strips and is held on the said longitudinal beams.
  • the support means is preferably a support bar.
  • Slatted frames of this type are characterized by an extremely high sinking depth. With such a slatted frame, increased sleeping comfort can be achieved will.
  • a type of fabric web can be attached, for example in a known manner, between the mattress and the slatted frame, which is attached to the slatted frame by means of ribbons or hooks.
  • Such fabric sheets are known on the market as mattress protectors.
  • the disadvantage of this is that, after a short time, the tapes or hooks, which are preferably attached to each corner of the fabric web, tear out.
  • the fabric sheet serving as a mattress protector is not only destroyed, but the mattress is no longer held on the slatted frame together with the fabric sheet.
  • the above-mentioned webs of fabric often protrude from the lateral edges of the slatted frame and the mattress, which has an aesthetically unsightly effect.
  • a particularly preferred embodiment of the invention in particular for a slatted frame of the type mentioned in the introduction, is characterized by the features of patent claim 2.
  • the particular advantage here is that by forming the pockets that are open towards the center of the mattress and that can extend over the entire length of the mattress, there is no merely punctiform attachment of the mattress to the slatted frame, and in this way tearing out Straps or fastening hooks can be avoided.
  • folding the bags around the lateral free ends of the support modules is easier to carry out than, for example, tying fastening straps.
  • the mattress can be attached to the slatted frame according to claim 7.
  • Bed frame frames are not always designed in such a way that the slatted frame and the mattress are almost sunk into them. Often a slatted frame is simply placed on a bed frame. The side edges of the slatted frame are visible in this case. With an additional design of the mattress according to claims 9 and 10, the visible edge areas can be covered particularly aesthetically in bed frame frames of the type just mentioned.
  • the reference numeral 1 designates a mattress that is placed on a slatted frame, the latter essentially comprises two parallel longitudinal beams 2, 3, along which are spaced apart mutually transverse resilient support modules 4.
  • Each of the support modules 4 comprises a female connector 5 and a means supporting the female connector in the lateral end regions, preferably a supporting member 6.
  • the latter is held on the longitudinal members 2, 3, if possible loosely, by means of fastening members 25, 26, such that a restricted Tilting and deflection of the support bar 6 when loading the mattress 1 is possible.
  • Each of the lateral ends of one of the support strips 6 and the associated spring strip 5 protrude into a connecting element 9, which is preferably made of plastic and has openings for inserting the aforementioned strip ends.
  • a bed frame comprises the longitudinal frames 20, 21, which are connected to one another by means of cross members 24, only one of which is visible.
  • the longitudinal members of the bed frame 20, 21 are preferably equipped with floor support elements 22, 23, which establish the connection of the bed with a floor, not shown.
  • displacement preventing means 8 which can be connected to the slatted frame are arranged in such a way that displacement of the mattress relative to the above-mentioned resting surface formed by the upper side of the slats is prevented.
  • the displacement prevention means 8 shown in the embodiment of FIG. 1 each include a side pocket 10 which is open towards the center of the mattress and which preferably extends over the entire length of the mattress 1, but can also be divided into individual pocket segments, and Fastening means 12, 13 for holding the free pocket edge 11 of each of the pockets 10 on the support modules 4.
  • the pockets 10 are preferably sewn or sewn in the area of the lower edges 7 of the mattress 1.
  • the pockets 10 are as possible be looped tightly around the exposed lateral ends of the connecting elements 9.
  • a Velcro fastener designated 12 is provided in FIG. 1a. A part of it is attached to the underside of the connecting elements 9 and the other part thereof to the inside of the free pocket edge 11.
  • Fig. 1b the attachment of the free end 11 of the pocket 10 by means of a snap lock or a push button 13 is provided. A part of it is present in the connecting elements 9 of each of the support modules 4 and the other part of it is arranged on the free pocket edge 11.
  • the slatted frame rests on the above-mentioned bed frame in this exemplary embodiment.
  • the slatted frame, especially the support modules, are visible from the side.
  • Aprons 19, which are also each fastened, for example, to the lower edges 7 of the mattress 1, can be used to cover the stated viewing area in order to achieve a particularly aesthetic effect.
  • the aprons 19 can, for example, be sewn or sewn together with the pocket 10 (FIG. 1b). It would also be possible to pull the aprons 19 up to the upper edge of the mattress, as shown in FIG. 1a, and to sew them, for example, to the lateral upper edges of the mattress 1.
  • FIG. 2 Another embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. 2.
  • the mattress designated 1 lies on a slatted frame, which is constructed essentially the same as that of FIG. 1.
  • the bed frame has raised up to approximately the upper slatted frame Longitudinal frames 27, 28, which are each connected at their two ends by means of raised transverse frames 30.
  • the slatted frame is not placed on a bed frame, but inserted into a bed frame. So that the aforementioned aprons 19 do not have a disruptive effect, it can be provided that they can be attached and removed on the mattress 1.
  • straps 14, 15 are attached to the free pocket edges denoted by 11, which straps can be connected to one another and tensioned using a connecting device 16.
  • the connecting device 16 could consist of an elastic band, for example a rubber band. In this case, only an eyelet and a hook could be provided as the connecting device 16.
  • Belts 14 and / or 15 and associated connecting devices 16 are to be arranged along the pockets 10 in order to fulfill their task in the required number.
  • the slatted frame and the bed frame correspond to the exemplary embodiment in FIG. 1.
  • a pocket 10 is formed around the mattress towards the middle of the mattress is open.
  • An elastic band, designated 17, is sewn all around on the free pocket edge 11.
  • the mattress is attached to the exposed edges of the slatted frame, similar to a fitted sheet.
  • FIG. 4 shows the side view of a bed frame 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, on which a slatted frame is placed, which is designed to be adjustable by means of articulated points 18a, 18b, 18c.
  • the back, the thighs and the lower legs of a person lying on the mattress 1 can be stored at different heights and positions.
  • the longitudinal beams 2, 3 of this slatted frame are divided into support segments 29a, 29b, 29c, 29d which are connected to one another in an articulated manner.
  • Carrier modules 7, which can correspond to the embodiment already described, are fastened to each of the carrier segments.
  • several pocket segments 10a, 10b, 10c, 10d corresponding to the head and leg lifting parts are attached to the two lower lateral edges 7 of the mattress 1.
  • the tight wrapping of each of the pocket segments mentioned about the lateral exposed ends of the support modules 7 can be carried out according to one of the above-described exemplary embodiments.
