Abstract

The bed base consists of a frame (1) with at least one mattress support in the form of a group (71, 72) of flexible lengthwise slats (41) that can be moved by drives between lying and sitting positions. The slats in each group, made from composition materials, plywood or carbon fibres, run the whole length of the bed and are connected by crossbars (7, 22) to drives in the form of motors under the frame.

Description

L'invention concerne les sommiers de relaxation à tête et pied relevables (TPR) dits précisément sommiers TPR. Ces sommiers comprennent, montés sur un chassis articulé, une nappe de lattes transversales fixées à deux longerons latéraux du chassis par l'intermédiaire d'embouts relativement souples et élastiques assurant également une fonction d'amortissement. Les lattes transversales sont ainsi un peu montées à la cardan. Les longerons sont constitués d'une série de segments rectilignes articulés entre eux par des moteurs et des chaines cinématiques entrainées en mouvement par les moteurs et ils peuvent ainsi évoluer et déformer la nappe de lattes d'une position à plat, de couchage classique, à une position relevée, d'assise, en passant par toutes positions intermédiaires, de relevage de la tête, du dos, des cuisses et des pieds, souhaitées par les utilisateurs.The invention relates to relaxation bed bases with lifting head and foot. (TPR) called precisely TPR bed bases. These box springs include, mounted on an articulated frame, a sheet of transverse slats fixed to two side rails of the chassis via end caps relatively flexible and elastic also providing a function amortization. The transverse slats are thus slightly mounted at the gimbal. The longitudinal members consist of a series of straight segments articulated between them by driven drive motors and kinematic chains in motion by the motors and they can thus evolve and deform the plank of slats from a flat position, conventional sleeping, to a position raised, sitting, passing through all intermediate positions, lifting of the head, back, thighs and feet, desired by the users.

En position à plat, les longerons sont totalement rectilignes. En position d'assise ou intermédiaire, les longerons s'étendent le long d'une ligne brisée à autant de plis, moins un, qu'il y a de segments dans les longerons. Considéré de profil, le chassis de sommier présente donc des zones concaves, au-dessus desquelles le matelas n'est pas supporté, et des zones convexes, au-dessus desquelles le matelas se trouve en portance agressive, par exemple souvent la zone de liaison cuisses-pieds. Bref, les sommiers TPR de l'art antérieur ne sont pas des plus ergonomiques.In the flat position, the side members are completely straight. In position seat or intermediate, the side members extend along a line broken to as many folds, minus one, as there are segments in the side members. Considered in profile, the box spring chassis therefore has areas concaves, above which the mattress is not supported, and areas convex, above which the mattress is aggressively lifted, for example often the thigh-to-foot connection area. In short, the box springs TPR of the prior art are not the most ergonomic.

L'invention de la présente demande vise à proposer un sommier de relaxation offrant un soutien de forme pour des positions de relaxation ergonomiques.The invention of this application aims to provide a box spring relaxation offering shape support for relaxation positions Ergonomic.

A cet effet, l'invention concerne un sommier de relaxation comprenant un chassis, au moins une nappe de lattes flexibles supports de matelas montées sur le chassis, des moyens de déformation de la nappe d'une position à plat à une position d'assise, caractérisé par le fait que toutes les lattes de la nappe sont des lattes longitudinales et continues solidaires entre elles par des traverses montées sur le chassis et avec lesquelles coopèrent les moyens de déformation de la nappe de lattes.To this end, the invention relates to a relaxation base comprising a chassis, at least one ply of flexible slats mattress supports mounted on the chassis, means of deformation of the sheet from a flat position in a sitting position, characterized in that all the slats of the ply are longitudinal and continuous slats joined together by cross members mounted on the chassis and with which the means of deformation of the batt layer.

Tout d'abord, grâce aux deux lattes longitudinales continues, le long des deux côtés du chassis, qui peuvent sensiblement épouser la forme du corps d'un utilisateur, un peu à la manière d'une colonne vertébrale, la nappe de lattes supports peut être déformée de façon continue et douce, sans angle ni pli. First of all, thanks to the two continuous longitudinal slats, along the two sides of the chassis, which can substantially match the shape of the body of a user, a bit like a spine, the web of support slats can be deformed continuously and smoothly, without angle or fold.

On notera ensuite que les moyens de déformation de la nappe coopèrent (indirectement) avec les lattes de la nappe, et donc aussi avec les deux lattes latérales, par l'intermédiaire des traverses et que les lattes sont bien montées sur le chassis mais aussi indirectement, par l'intermédiaire des traverses.It will then be noted that the means of deformation of the sheet cooperate (indirectly) with the slats of the tablecloth, and therefore also with the two side slats, through the crosspieces and that the slats are well mounted on the chassis but also indirectly, through sleepers.

Pour des déplacements relatifs des traverses, il peut s'agir d'une traverse de tête et de dos, d'une traverse de cuisses, d'une traverse de pieds, l'utilisateur peut obtenir tous les cintres qu'il souhaite.For relative displacements of the sleepers, it can be a sleeper of head and back, a cross of thighs, a cross of feet, the user can obtain all the hangers he wishes.

Avantageusement, les lattes de la nappe, dans une zone d'assise centrale, sont fixées au chassis, pour garantir la position d'ensemble de la nappe.Advantageously, the slats of the tablecloth, in a central seating area, are fixed to the chassis, to guarantee the overall position of the cable.

Avantageusement encore, les lattes sont en un matériau choisi dans le groupe des matériaux composites, du bois lamellé et des fibres de carbone.Advantageously also, the slats are made of a material chosen from the group of composite materials, laminated wood and carbon fibers.

L'invention sera mieux comprise à l'aide de la description suivante de la forme de réalisation préférée du sommier, en référence au dessin en annexe, sur lequel

  • la figure 1 est une vue des cinématiques de levage du sommier de l'invention;
  • la figure 2 est une vue en perspective de dessus du sommier, à deux places ;
  • la figure 3 est une vue latérale, partie dos relevée, du sommier de la figure 2 et
  • la figure 4 est une vue latérale, partie cuisses/pieds relevée, du sommier de la figure 2.
The invention will be better understood using the following description of the preferred embodiment of the bed base, with reference to the appended drawing, in which
  • Figure 1 is a view of the lifting kinematics of the bed base of the invention;
  • Figure 2 is a perspective view from above of the box spring, two places;
  • FIG. 3 is a side view, back part raised, of the bed base of FIG. 2 and
  • FIG. 4 is a side view, thighs / feet part raised, of the bed base of FIG. 2.

Vont d'abord être décrits le chassis support de la nappe de lattes du sommier et les moyens de déformation de la nappe, en l'occurrence les moteurs de tête et de pieds et les deux chaines cinématiques 50, 60 de levage des traverses auxquelles les lattes sont fixées.We will first describe the support frame of the slat sheet of the box spring and the means of deformation of the sheet, in this case the head and foot motors and the two kinematic chains 50, 60 of lifting of the crosspieces to which the slats are fixed.

Le sommier de l'invention comprend donc un cadre fixe 1, avec deux traverses de tête et de pied 3, 4 et deux longerons latéraux 5, 6, monté sur pieds 2. Le cadre comporte encore, dans sa partie centrale, deux traverses intermédiaires centrales fixes 7 et 8 assez proches l'une de l'autre.The bed base of the invention therefore comprises a fixed frame 1, with two head and foot crosspieces 3, 4 and two side rails 5, 6, mounted on feet 2. The frame still has, in its central part, two crosspieces fixed central intermediaries 7 and 8 fairly close to each other.

Sous les deux traverses centrales 7, 8 est suspendu un coffret 9 de réception des deux moteurs. Le coffret 9 est fixé aux longerons latéraux 5, 6 par deux paires de plaques de tête 10 et de pieds 11. Les plaques de fixation sont prolongées chacune par une oreille 12, 13 jouant un rôle de palier pour une barre de commande 14, 15 ainsi montée dans les deux oreilles des deux plaques d'une même paire.Under the two central crosspieces 7, 8 is suspended a reception box 9 of the two motors. The box 9 is fixed to the side rails 5, 6 by two pairs of head plates 10 and feet 11. The fixing plates are each extended by an ear 12, 13 acting as a landing for a control bar 14, 15 thus mounted in the two ears of the two plates of the same pair.

Cinématique de têteHead kinematics

Le chassis de tête 50 vise à lever plus ou moins une traverse de dos et de tête mobile 22.The head frame 50 aims to more or less lift a cross member from the back and moving head 22.

Le moteur de tête peut actionner un patin pousseur 16 qui, à son tour, en poussant un doigt 17 d'une équerre 18 soudée sur la barre de commande 14 montée tourillonnante dans les plaques-paliers 12 et traversant le coffret 9, peut faire tourner la barre 14 dans ses paliers 12. De la barre de commande 14 sont solidaires par l'une de leurs extrémités deux bras latéraux 20 qui, à leur autre extrémité 19, sont articulés à deux biellettes 21 aussi articulées à une traverse de tête mobile 22.The head motor can actuate a pusher pad 16 which, in turn, pushing a finger 17 from a bracket 18 welded to the control bar 14 swivel mounted in the bearing plates 12 and passing through the box 9, can rotate the bar 14 in its bearings 12. From the control bar 14 are secured by one of their ends two side arms 20 which, at their other end 19, are articulated with two rods 21 also articulated with a movable head cross member 22.

Dans sa rotation, la barre de commande 14 entraíne en pivotement les bras 20 ainsi que les biellettes 21, autour des extrémités des bras 20 opposées à la barre 14, en raison du fait que la distance entre la traverse fixe 7 et la traverse de tête mobile 22 est pratiquement constante.In its rotation, the control bar 14 rotates the arms 20 as well as the links 21, around the ends of the arms 20 opposite to the bar 14, due to the fact that the distance between the fixed cross-member 7 and the movable head cross member 22 is practically constant.

Quand la barre 14 est entraínée en rotation, les bras 20 montent, les compas 14, 20, 19, 21, 22 s'ouvrent et la barre de tête mobile 22 s'élève.When the bar 14 is rotated, the arms 20 rise, the compasses 14, 20, 19, 21, 22 open and the movable head bar 22 rises.

Cinématique de piedsKinematics of feet

La chaíne de pieds 60 se divise en deux branches, une 61 pour lever plus ou moins une traverse de cuisses 31 et une autre 62 pour lever plus ou moins une traverse de pieds 38.The chain of feet 60 is divided into two branches, one 61 to lift more or minus a thigh crosspiece 31 and another 62 to lift more or less a crosspiece of feet 38.

Cinématique de la traverse de cuissesKinematics of the thigh cross

Le moteur de pieds peut actionner un patin pousseur 26 qui, à son tour, en poussant un doigt 27 d'une équerre 28 soudée sur la barre de commande 15 montée tourillonnante dans les plaques-paliers 11 et traversant le coffret 9, peut faire tourner la barre 15 dans ses paliers 11. De la barre de commande 15 sont solidaires par l'une de leurs extrémités deux biellettes latérales 29. A l'autre 39 de leurs extrémités, les biellettes 29 sont articulées à deux bielles 30 aussi articulées à une traverse mobile de cuisses 31.The feet motor can actuate a pusher pad 26 which, in turn, pushing a finger 27 from a bracket 28 welded to the control bar 15 swivel mounted in the bearing plates 11 and passing through the box 9, can rotate the bar 15 in its bearings 11. From the control bar 15 are joined at one of their ends to two lateral links 29. At the other 39 of their ends, the links 29 are articulated in two connecting rods 30 also articulated to a movable cross member of the thighs 31.

Cinématique de la traverse de piedsKinematics of the crosspiece

Aux biellettes 29 sont également atticulées, à leur extrémité 39 opposée à la barre de commande 15, des bras latéraux 32 articulés chacun, à leur autre extrémité 36, à deux biellettes 33, 34. Les biellettes inférieures 33, à leur autre extrémité, sont montées tourillonnantes, chacune autour d'un axe 37 monté sur une plaque 35 fixée au longeron correspondant 5, 6 du chassis.The links 29 are also attached, at their end 39 opposite the control bar 15, side arms 32 each articulated, at their other end 36, with two links 33, 34. The lower links 33, at their other end, are journalled, each around an axis 37 mounted on a plate 35 fixed to the corresponding spar 5, 6 of the chassis.

Les biellettes supérieures 34 sont, à leur autre extrémité, articulées à la traverse de pieds mobile 38.The upper links 34 are, at their other end, articulated at the movable foot cross 38.

Quand la barre de commande 15 commence à être entraínée en rotation, les extrémités d'articulation 39 des biellettes 29 descendent un peu et les bielles 30 ne pivotent pratiquement pas : la traverse de cuisses 31 ne bouge pratiquement pas non plus.When the control bar 15 begins to be rotated, the articulation ends 39 of the links 29 descend a little and the connecting rods 30 practically do not pivot: the thigh cross member 31 does not move practically not either.

Par contre, les extrémités d'articulation 36 des bras 32 montent et avancent pour ouvrir les compas 37, 33, 36, 34, 38 et faire monter la traverse de pieds mobile 38.On the other hand, the articulation ends 36 of the arms 32 rise and move forward to open the compass 37, 33, 36, 34, 38 and raise the cross-member movable feet 38.

En d'autres termes, quand on actionne le moteur de pieds et donc le patin pousseur 26, on commence par faire monter la traverse de pieds 38 avant de pouvoir lever la traverse de cuisses 31. C'est une bonne façon d'assurer le repos des jambes.In other words, when you operate the feet motor and therefore the shoe pusher 26, we start by raising the crossbeam of feet 38 before to be able to lift the thigh crosspiece 31. This is a good way to ensure rest of the legs.

Ayant décrit le chassis du sommier de l'invention, abordons maintenant la nappe de lattes.Having described the frame of the bed base of the invention, let us now approach the slat sheet.

Nappe de lattesSlat tablecloth

En référence aux figures 2-4, on a représenté un sommier à deux nappes 71, 72 indépendantes avec, chacune, ses cinématiques de levage, et avec une tête de lit 70. Les nappes sont ici constituées d'une pluralité de lattes longitudinales continues 41, parallèles aux longerons 5, 6 du chassis, entre deux lattes latérales 411 et 41n et elles sont sensiblement de même longueur que ces longerons. Referring to Figures 2-4, there is shown a box spring with two independent plies 71, 72 with, each, its lifting kinematics, and with a headboard 70. The plies here consist of a plurality of continuous longitudinal slats 41, parallel to the side members 5, 6 of the chassis, between two lateral slats 41 1 and 41 n and they are substantially the same length as these side members.

Elles sont montées sur le chassis 1 fixées directement sur ses traverses fixes 7, 8, pour garantir la position d'ensemble de la nappe, ainsi que sur les traverses mobiles de tête 22, de cuisses 31 et de pieds 38.They are mounted on the chassis 1 fixed directly on its fixed crosspieces 7, 8, to guarantee the overall position of the ply, as well as on the movable cross members of head 22, thighs 31 and feet 38.

Les lattes 41 sont donc solidarisées entre elles par toutes ces traverses fixes et mobiles.The slats 41 are therefore joined together by all these fixed crosspieces and mobile.

La nappe de lattes 40 peut être déformée par les deux chaínes cinématiques qu'on vient de décrire qui agissent sur elles par l'intermédiaire des traverses mobiles 22, 31, 38.The slat sheet 40 can be deformed by the two kinematic chains that we have just described which act on them through movable sleepers 22, 31, 38.

Les lattes 41 sont en matériau flexbile qui peut être un matériau composite, un bois lamellé ; elles peuvent éventuellement être en fibres de carbone.The slats 41 are made of flexible material which can be a composite material, laminated wood; they may possibly be made of carbon fibers.

La nappe de droite 71 du lit est représentée dans la position à plat, la nappe de gauche 72, dans la position d'assise, la barre de tête 22 levée au maximum, les lattes étant harmonieusement cintrées entre les traverses 7 et 22, la barre de pieds 38 ainsi levée au maximum et la barre de cuisses 31, en position intermédiaire mais levée aussi au maximum pour ce qui la concerne.The right tablecloth 71 of the bed is shown in the flat position, the tablecloth left 72, in the sitting position, the head bar 22 raised at maximum, the slats being harmoniously bent between the crosspieces 7 and 22, the foot bar 38 thus raised to the maximum and the thigh bar 31, in the intermediate position but also raised to the maximum for the concerned.

Comme on le voit bien sur les figures, les nappes de lattes peuvent être déformées de façon continue et douce, sans angle ni pli. Les matelas ne peuvent qu'être correctement supportés selon une portance parfaite et continue, sans zone agressive, des pieds à la tête.As can be seen in the figures, the battens can be continuously and gently deformed, without angles or creases. The mattresses do can only be properly supported with perfect lift and continuous, without aggressive zone, from the feet to the head.
