Definitions

  • the invention relates to an air bed pump or blower for air beds.
  • Per Person are preferably three of the same size, in length air chambers strung together.
  • the different chambers can be filled to different degrees and thus the personal Adjust lying comfort and sleeping position individually.
  • the different Filling is achieved by a pump or blower, which feeds various hoses via valves.
  • the hoses are with one chamber or, in parallel with switches, with several Chambers connected.
  • One pump or blower feeds several per person, preferably 3 different air chambers. This is about different Valves in the pump or in the blower reached. Feed the valves one or several turnouts at the same time.
  • the Draining is achieved by replacing the pump or Fan operation in addition to the valve opening to the air chamber Drain valve in the pump or in the blower opens.
  • the same pump or blower can have a number of valves that it also enables the total number of air chambers required to use for 2 people.
  • FIG. 1 shows the cross section with 3 using the left mattress separate air chambers (4,5,6). Chamber 1 (4) and 3 (6) are in this Case connected in parallel with a switch (3).
  • the pump (1) or in this case the fan is equipped with 4 outlet valves (2) equipped and shown with a power cord.
  • Fig. 1 shows on the basis the right mattress the supervision of the mattress cover (7) or Exterior of the air bed. All air chambers for 2 people with or Without a bordering foam frame, you can also use a continuous Double bed mattress cover can be placed.
  • the invention enables different filling in the air bed.
  • a desired central zone reinforcement (5) can be achieved.
  • the individual air chambers are arranged next to one another, preferably across and are through with or without attachment a mattress cover (7) held together. Between mattress covers (7) and air chambers (4,5,6), can be an additional enclosing Foam frame.
  • the present invention enables individual sections can be filled differently in the air bed.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Luftbett-Pumpe bzw. Gebläse für Luftbetten. Pro Person werden vorzugsweise drei gleichgrosse, in der Länge aneinandergereihte Luftkammern verwendet. Die verschiedenen Kammern lassen sich verschieden stark füllen und dadurch dem persönlichen Liegekomfort und der Schlaflage individuell anpassen. Die unterschiedliche Füllung wird durch eine Pumpe bzw. ein Gebläse erreicht, welches über Ventile verschiedene Schläuche speist. Die Schläuche sind mit einer Kammer oder, über Weichen paralell, mit mehreren Kammern verbunden.
Eine Pumpe bzw. ein Gebläse speist pro Person mehrere, vorzugsweise 3 verschiedene Luftkammern. Dies wird über verschiedene Ventile in der Pumpe bzw. in dem Gebläse erreicht. Die Ventile speisen eine oder über Weichen mehrere Luftkammern gleichzeitig. Das Ablassen wird erreicht, indem man anstelle des Pumpen- bzw. des Gebläsebetriebes zusätzlich zur Ventilöffnung zur Luftkammer ein Ablassventil in der Pumpe bzw. in dem Gebläse öffnet. Dieselbe Pumpe bzw. Gebläse kann eine Anzahl Ventile aufweisen, die es ermöglichen gleichzeitig die gesamte Anzahl nötiger Luftkammern für 2 Personen zu bedienen.
Fig. 1 zeigt anhand der linken Matratze den Querschnitt mit 3 separaten Luftkammern (4,5,6). Kammer 1 (4) und 3 (6) sind in diesem Fall mit einer Weiche (3) paralell geschaltet. Die Pumpe (1) bzw. das Gebläse ist in diesem Fall mit 4 Ausgangsventilen (2) ausgestattet und mit einem Netzkabel abgebildet. Fig. 1 zeigt anhand der rechten Matratze die Aufsicht des Matratzenbezuges (7) bzw. das Aeussere des Luftbettes. Alle Luftkammern für 2 Personen mit oder ohne einfassende Schaumrahmen können auch in einem durchgehenden Doppelbett-Matratzenbezug platziert werden.
Die Erfindung ermöglicht das unterschiedliche Füllen im Luftbett. Insbesondere eine erwünschte Mittelzonenverstärkung (5) kann erreicht werden. Nicht die gesammte Liegefläche muss als Kompromiss den gleichen Druck aufweisen, sondern es können einzelne Luftkammern (4,5,6) im Druck und somit in der Festigkeit verändert werden.
Die einzelnen Luftkammern sind aneinander angeordnet, vorzugsweise quer und werden mit oder ohne Befestigung untereinander durch einen Matratzenbezug (7) zusammengehalten. Zwischen Matratzenbezug (7) und Luft-Kammern (4,5,6), kann sich ein zusätzlicher einfassender Schaumrahmen befinden.
Die vorliegende Erfindung ermöglicht es, dass einzelne Abschnitte im Luftbett unterschiedlich gefüllt werden können.

Claims (1)

  1. Luftbett-Pumpe (1) bzw. Gebläse, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass über 4 Ventile mehrere Luftkammern pro Person, für 2 Personen befüllt werden können und über ein in der Pumpe bzw. dem Gebläse eingebautes Ablassventil bei allen Luftkammern auch Druck abgelassen werden kann.
