Definitions

  • the invention relates to a bed with a frame and with resilient elements held by the frame, which form a supporting surface filling the frame for mattresses or the like.
  • deckchairs which can be converted into foldable beds (CH-PS 380 901), where you pull the textile covering over the folding frame with the help of pockets attached to the head and foot ends, thus securing the textile structure.
  • CH-PS 380 901 foldable beds
  • reclining furniture cannot be used as a replacement for a bed frame.
  • a bed provided as garden or camping furniture (AT-PS 312 844), which is constructed from a collapsible frame that serves as a holder for elastic straps that merge into a textile structure towards the center of the furniture.
  • This design is intended to provide the reclining furniture as a kind of trampoline for children.
  • chairs or deckchairs are also known (DE 44 26 316 Cl), in which the seat or back surface is formed from a textile cover, which is formed into a loop at each of its edges and is pushed onto rod-like tensioning pieces with these, which in turn are screwed to the longitudinal bars of the chair frame. This configuration makes it possible to remove the cover from the frame, for example for the purpose of cleaning.
  • the present invention is based on the object of designing a bed of the type mentioned at the outset, which can therefore serve as a bed frame, in a much simpler manner in such a way that resilient contact forces can be made available over the entire bed surface without being in a complex manner spring elements distributed over the surface must be provided on a solid base or slats extending transversely to the longitudinal spars of the frame.
  • the resilient elements are formed by a textile structure made of elastic threads in the form of a knitted or woven fabric made of plastic threads, which is pretensioned at least on the longitudinal spars of the Frame is held clamped.
  • This configuration creates a support surface for the cushion pad of a bed or the like, which, depending on the pretension of the textile structure, can apply resilient restoring forces which can be influenced to the desired extent.
  • the structure of such a support frame remains extremely simple.
  • the pretensioning of the textile structure transverse to the longitudinal spars in at least one of several sections running in the longitudinal direction of the longitudinal spars can be different from that in other sections, so that it is possible, as is also the case with slatted frames or with individually adapted spring elements , zone-wise different restoring forces to be exerted on a lying cushion and thus also on a person lying on the cushion. This is an important measure for modern bed pads, which promotes lying comfort and thus healthy sleep.
  • the outer edges of the textile structure can be held on the longitudinal and transverse spars in a very simple manner, and the frame can also be provided with foldable longitudinal spars which enable the lying surface to be adjusted.
  • the knitted or woven fabric of the textile structure can consist of polyester threads, preferably with a proportion of approximately 25% elastomeric polyester.
  • the textile structure can advantageously also consist of two textile structures arranged at a distance from one another, which come into contact with one another under load and thus allow high restoring forces to be achieved.
  • the invention also relates to a method for producing a bed of the type mentioned.
  • a cut is to be made in the frame of the textile structure formed by the threads, the transverse dimensions of which are smaller than the distance between the longitudinal spars and whose outer contour is not straight and parallel to the longitudinal spars at least at one point on one of the long sides.
  • the blank thus formed is attached to the longitudinal spars with its longitudinal outer edges, at least in the transverse direction.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a bed according to the invention with differently oriented sections of the bed
  • FIG. 2 is a side view of the bed of FIG. 1, but with a cushion pad and with the representation of the lying surface sections folded into a common horizontal plane,
  • FIG. 3 shows the end view of the bed of FIG. 2 with the lying surface sections in the folded-down position
  • FIG. 5 shows a schematic representation of a fabric blank which is then clamped into the bed frame
  • FIG. 6 is an enlarged partial view of detail VI of FIG. 4,
  • Fig. 7 is a partial view similar to Fig. 6, but in another embodiment and
  • Fig. 8 is a partial view similar to Fig. 6, but in a further embodiment.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 show a lying bed which consists of a base frame 2 provided with feet 1 with longitudinal spars 2a and transverse spars 13 and a frame 3 which forms a lying surface and which in the exemplary embodiment has a nem elastic knitted fabric 4 is covered.
  • the frame 3 consists of two longitudinal bars 5 designed to be kinkable, which are kept at a distance by transverse bars 6.
  • the longitudinal bars 5, which are designed to be kinkable make it possible, in a manner known per se, to divide the lying surface of the bed into a plurality of sections which can be inclined at certain angles to one another, as is shown in FIGS. 1 and 2.
  • the longitudinal bars 5 can also be brought into an extended position, so that the bed has a flat lying surface, as shown in dashed lines in Fig. 2.
  • the longitudinal bars are also adjusted in a known manner via an electric drive 7, which is shown in broken lines in FIG. 2.
  • the bed surface of the bed is provided with an elastic cushion pad 8, the extended position of which is indicated by 8 'in Fig. 2.
  • the knitted fabric 4 clamped in the frame 3 consists of elastic plastic threads, whereby a knitted fabric made of polyester threads with a proportion of approximately 25% elastomeric polyester is expediently used.
  • This well-known knitted fabric which is sold under the brand name "Gemstone Crystal Flex II" by Milliken Europe N.V. is sold in Ghent / Belgium, is an elastic knitted fabric that can be tensioned bidirectionally and which, according to the invention, is inserted into the supporting frame 3 in the pretensioned state at least in the transverse direction between the two longitudinal spars 5. How this is done will be explained in more detail with reference to FIGS. 5 and 6.
  • Figures 3 and 4 show, however, that the longitudinal spars 5 are provided with additional cross struts in addition to the two transverse spars 6 provided at their ends in the area of their two hinge axes 9 and 10.
  • the articulation axis 9 which, like the articulation axis 10, is not formed by a continuous shaft or the like, but is only formed in the area of the longitudinal spars 5 with articulated arrangements, there is a linkage on Base frame 2 is provided, while an additional transverse stiffening bracket 12 is provided in the area of the articulation axis 10. In this way, a stable support frame 3 is formed, which can hold the elastic knitted fabric 4 under a predetermined tension.
  • This elastic knitted fabric is now inserted into the frame 3 in such a way that it is inserted in the transverse direction between the two longitudinal bars 5 with zones 14, 15, 16, 17 and 18 of different prestressing in the frame 3.
  • the outer edges 4a of this elastic knitted fabric 4 are outward in the direction of arrows 21 pulled up to the longitudinal spars 5, because of the greater stretch between the longitudinal spars 5 in zones 14, 16 and 18 there is a greater prestress than in the zones in between, so that it is possible to distribute the bed surface in different zones to give a different restoring force over the length of the longitudinal spars, which in the desired manner serves to provide a differently soft contact surface for a person to offer son who uses the bed.
  • Fig. 5 also makes it clear that the knitted fabric 4 is also subjected to a pretension in zones 15 or 17, because here it must be stretched outwards at least by the amount s to the respective longitudinal spars before it is applied to the Longitudinal spars is clamped.
  • zones 15 and 17 restoring forces would therefore arise in the exemplary embodiment shown, which is due to the stretching of the knitted fabric 4 by the amount s, but in zones 16, 14 and 18 Restoring forces, which are caused by the stretching of the knitted fabric by the amount s plus s x .
  • Fig. 6 shows that the initially non-rectangular cut of the knitted fabric 4 (Fig. 5), after it has been brought into a rectangular shape by the corresponding stretching, is inserted and held with the outer edges 4a in terminal strips 19, which in turn are held in receiving strips 20 are used, which are attached to the longitudinal bars 5.
  • the knitted fabric 4, which is tensioned differently in different zones in this way, is then held on the frame 3 and, as explained, can form a lying surface which acts differently soft when loaded.
  • supports can be provided, which can consist of strips 24 which can be displaced in the longitudinal direction of the longitudinal spars 5, with supports 22 arranged thereon, and additionally the support for that Upholstery and support for one person in certain places. It would of course also be possible to place 4 supports on the knitted fabric, which are provided, for example, as lumbar supports in the lumbar region or as knee supports in the support region of the legs of a person using the bed. These additional requirements can e.g. be attached to the knitted fabric 4 at a suitable point with a Velcro strip.
  • FIG. 7 shows a modified embodiment of a clamping of the textile structure on the lateral longitudinal spars 5.
  • a clamping strip 19 ' is now provided for clamping the edge of the textile structure, which consists of the three strip sections 19a, 19b and 19c.
  • the edge of a textile structure 4a and the edge of a textile structure 4b are each clamped between these three strips, the two textile structures 4a and 4b consisting of elastic threads running parallel to one another at a distance a of may be in the order of 3 to 5 cm in practice.
  • the lower textile structure 4b is in general somewhat tighter than the upper structure 4a, and of course, as previously explained in detail with reference to FIG. 5, a different tension over the length of the longitudinal bars 5 can also be realized here.
  • the upper textile structure 4a bends and, if this deflection is greater than the distance a, the upper textile structure 4a comes to rest on the lower 4b. From this point in time, this measure exerts a substantially higher holding and restoring force.
  • the configuration according to FIG. 7 therefore allows the elasticity to be adjusted over a wide load range, so that people with a low body weight, but also those with a larger body weight, can lie comfortably on the bed frame thus formed.
  • FIG. 8 shows a variant of the configuration with two textile structures 4a 'and 4b' arranged one below the other.
  • These two structures are in the embodiment of FIG. 8 part of a hose 4 ', which is pushed over lateral rods 27, which in turn are fixed in a manner not shown or rotatable in the sense of arrows 26 on strips 25 which are fixed to the Longitudinal spars 5 or connected to the receiving strips 20 thereof.
  • the load on the upper run of the hose 4 ' which is formed by the structure 4a', causes the lower run, ie the textile structure 4b 1 , to be additionally tensioned, so that additional forces can also be absorbed in this case when the upper and lower runs of the hose 4 'touch each other.
