Definitions

  • the invention relates to a bubble mat and seat and recliner for a bubble mat, with the seat and recliner over a large area also on the bubble mat Exhaust channels and / or exhaust badges extends and wherein the surface of the seat and recliner is broken through there is where the bubble air rises from the bubble mat.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to create a bubble mat and seat and recliner for a bubble mat initially mentioned type, the anatomical design of the Seat and recliner are designed so that they are optimal Offers sitting and lying comfort in all bathing positions without cover more than necessary from the bubbling surface of the bubble mat.
  • This task is done with a bubble mat and sitting and lying pad solved for a bubble mat, whereby according to the characteristic Part of claim 1, the seat and recliner over two the head and foot of the bubble mat facing outer parts, which, according to the curved Contour of the human buttocks or crotch in which Central longitudinal axis are indented.
  • Such a seat and recliner has a comfortable seat, as it covers a large area Air channels or air vents of the bubble mat extends. This allows a smooth surface without edges and realizing corners on which you can sit very comfortably.
  • the free development of the bubbling is ensured by the fact that the seat above the air channels / plaques of the bubble mat is broken and there, for example, over a Perforation, a grid or circular or elongated openings features.
  • Your anatomically particularly favorable design receives the seat and recliner by the two foot or outer parts arranged upside down in the central longitudinal axis, the anatomy of the buttocks (for the sitting position) and the anatomy of the step (for the lying position), are indented. This contour ensures all seating comfort a compact design of the seat and recliner with comparatively little covered whirlpool area Bubble mat, so that a largely undisturbed bubbling or pearling can occur.
  • the seat and recliner are expediently divided, so that at least between the two anatomically shaped outer parts an inner part is arranged, with a tripartite division and a rectangular contour of the inner part as special has proven advantageous.
  • the division can be made by Parting lines running transversely to the central longitudinal axis of the bubble mat can be achieved, whereby the parting lines are expedient in areas where there are no airflow channels or airflow badges are present and expediently so much Distance between adjacent parts of the seat and Lying pad provides that the bubble mat is attached
  • Seat and recliner can be rolled up easily.
  • the inner part which in particular has a rectangular shape, has the sides on the left and right appropriately over one molded Handle.
  • the handles make it easy to take out the bubble mat and / or the seat and recliner.
  • the seat can be designed as an openwork grid be that the bubbling air passes through relatively undisturbed. Furthermore, the seat can be made with a non-slip pad skin-friendly, foamed material.
  • a e.g. foamed solid material the formed thinner above the outflow channels or plaques and is perforated.
  • a mirror-symmetrical pair could also be used for the shoulders special shoulder pads in the upper, assigned to the head end Area of the bubble mat may be provided.
  • the seat and recliner can be flexible and at the same time stable in shape be constructed. Furthermore, it can be frame-like if necessary with edges pulled down to the side and higher Be seat formed.
  • the seat and lying pads For easy cleaning, it is recommended to use the seat and lying pads to be detachable from the bubble mat, to which Purpose, in particular releasable fastening clips can.
  • the removability also ensures easy access of the outflow channels or outflow badges For maintenance and replacement.
  • the exemplary bubble mat 1 is in accordance with FIG left part assigned to the foot end with outflow channels 2a and in their right part assigned to the head end with air vents 2b equipped. This simultaneous assembly with channels and badges is hypothetical to clarify that the seat and recliner according to the invention for both Air outlet systems is suitable.
  • 3 compressed air is fed into the Bubble mat 1 fed and via a valve 4 to the outflow channels 2a or the outflow badges 2b distributed. Out the latter then exits the air, causing a bubbling or Perlung results when the bubble mat 1 in a with water filled bathtub is inserted.
  • the example seat and recliner 5, 6 is by transverse division divided into three and has a top view rectangular inner part 6 and two identical to each other External parts 5, one each on the foot end and the side of the inner part 6 facing the head end next to this is arranged.
  • the outer parts 5 are on their facing away from the inner part 6, the Contoured foot end or edge area facing the head end in such a way that they are in the area of the central longitudinal axis to the inner part 6 recessed recesses. This is done an adaptation of the outer parts 5 available seat to the anatomy of the buttocks and the Step of the bathing person.
  • the entire seating and lying surface 5, 6 extends over a large area over, for example, the middle area of the bubble mat 1 and also via the air outlet channels in this area 2a or outflow badges 2b.
  • the Seat and recliner In the over the air channels areas or plaques is the Seat and recliner, however, or their seat surface is broken, e.g. through a perforation, through circular or elongated openings or a grid, so that the bubble mat Step through 1 rising bubble air and onto the body areas placed there can act.
  • the seat is the one on the left in FIG Outer part 5 designed as a perforated grid 5a, by the gaps of which the bubbling air can flow freely upwards.
  • the Inner part 6 on the other hand, has groups Perforations 6a that serve the same purpose as well like the larger openings 5b in the right outer part 5. In the Usually you will only get one way of designing the Use breakthroughs, making combinations as needed possible are.
  • the openings 5b and the perforations 6a are present Example of a bubble mat with outflow badges 2b thought while the openwork grid 5a for badges and elongated outflow formations would be equally suitable.
  • the individual parts of the seat and recliner can be frame-like with edges pulled down to the side and higher Be seat formed.
  • Figure 2 it is clear how unfold the bubbles under the hollow seat / recliner can.
  • one or more handles can be attached to take out lighten the bubble mat or the seat / recliner.
  • one or more handles can be attached to take out lighten the bubble mat or the seat / recliner.

  • the seat and recliner is removable on the Bubble mat 1 definable.
  • Suitable fasteners are for this purpose provided, for example as fastening clips 7 are executed and a releasable fixing to the Allow bubble mat 1.
  • FIG. 4 shows a state in which the bathing person 8 stretched out in the tub, her buttocks 10 (in FIG. 3 indicated by dash-dotted lines) on the one facing the foot end left outer part 5 rests (indicated by arrows). This corresponds to the step back in the perineal region of the 3 shows indentation of the outer part 5.
  • FIG. 5 the bathing person 9 is shown seated, with her buttocks 10 positioned on the right outer part 5 facing the head end is (again indicated by arrows). Now corresponds the buttock fold of the indentation of the corresponding Outer part 5.
  • the shape chosen means that Seat and lying pad ensures maximum bathing comfort, where the seat defined by the seat and recliner not bigger than is absolutely necessary. For example, she leaves the outflow of the center line for the spine in the area the indentations mentioned uncovered and thus unaffected.
  • the subdivision of the example seat and recliner in three parts are made by two transverse to the mat axis Parting lines that are conveniently arranged so that they they do not extend over outflow channels or outflow badges.
  • the adjacent parts 5, 6 are expedient so spaced from each other that they curl up the bubble mat does not interfere with each other and the bubble mat can be rolled up very easily with a small diameter can.
  • the seat and recliner can be fitted with a non-slip Cover made of skin-friendly foamed material his. It can consist of foamed solid material, which in Area of the outflow channels or outflow badges of the assigned Bubble mat 1 has a smaller thickness and there provided with the openings of appropriate design is.
