Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a suspension element, intended to extend between the longitudinal members of a bed frame or bed frame, in order to support a mattress.
  • said slatted frame in which the suspension elements consist of slats generally of wood or fiberglass, each slat being attached to each of its ends, to the longitudinal members of the bed frame or bed by the intermediary of connecting pieces, generally in terms of synthesis, called ball joints.
  • This latte / patella assembly thus forms a system of suspension in which the spring function is provided by two types of materials, namely on the one hand the material constituting the batten, on the other hand the constituent material of the patella.
  • the spring function is provided by two types of materials, namely on the one hand the material constituting the batten, on the other hand the constituent material of the patella.
  • suspension elements generally consist of an element elastically deformable equipped with connecting means to the latte and topped a mattress support plate as illustrated in FR-A-2,793,125. These suspension elements are arranged from place to place along the lath generating a heterogeneous damping.
  • An object of the present invention is therefore to propose an element of suspension whose design allows to obtain the same comfort on the whole width of the bedding.
  • the subject of the invention is a suspension element intended for extend between the rails of a bed frame or bed frame, in order to support a mattress, characterized in that it consists of a rigid cross support and an elastically deformable tubular body surmounting the cross, this body having a bearing surface for the mattress, flanks elastic suspension function, these sidewalls being extended by one heel used to attach the body to the cross.
  • this suspension element consisting of a assembly of a cross member and a tubular body in the manner of a tire-type assembly in which the cross would play the role of the rim and the tubular body that of the tire, it results in obtaining an element of suspension whose suspension function is ensured identically over the entire length of the element, this length corresponding to the width of bed base or bedding.
  • the suspension element 2, object of the invention is more particularly intended to extend between the longitudinal members 1 of a frame bedstead or bed and is used to support a mattress.
  • a frame of bed base or bed has a plurality of suspension elements 2 of the type mentioned above extending parallel to one another and thus covering the entire inner surface of the bed frame or bed.
  • the suspension element 2 which is the subject of the invention, consists of a cross member 3 rigid support and a resiliently deformable tubular body 4 overcoming the 3.
  • the tubular body 4 is intended to extend above and on the almost the entire length of the crossbar 3 so that the axis longitudinal axis of the tubular body extends substantially parallel to the axis longitudinal of the crossbar.
  • This tubular body 4 thus constitutes the equivalent of a overhanging pudding and doubling the crossbar 3. Thanks to this body orientation 4 tubular, the effect of suspension is identical over the entire length of 3.
  • This body 4 has a bearing surface 5 for the mattress, side flanks 6 with elastic suspension function, these flanks 6 being extended a heel 7 for fixing the body 4 to the crossbar 3.
  • the tubular body delimits a structure open along one of its generators.
  • this tubular body 4 could be delimited by means of a peripheral wall continuous forming a closed structure.
  • This tubular body 4 presents on its flanks of the openings 8 delimiting in the flanks suspension arches. These openings allow to give the tubular body 4 flexibility greater than that obtained in the case of full flanks.
  • These openings 8 are also provided with shutters 9 from the constituent material of the flanks 6. These flaps 9 extend in the extension of the bearing surface 5 for the mattress for increasing said support surface. These shutters 9 allow in besides ensuring a better ventilation of the mattress. Indeed, they allow maintain an air gap between mattress and body support surface 4 tubular.
  • the body 4 tubular is obtained by shaping, preferably by molding, a blank dish that is rolled to achieve the tubular shape. This flat flan is molded with shapes allowing easy demolding of the assembly.
  • the flat blank as well obtained, as shown in Figure 2 already has openings 8 equipped with shutters 9. It is then sufficient to roll this blank to give it a tubular shape and then attach this blank to the rigid crossbar 3 which itself extends between the longitudinal members of the bed frame or bed frame. Fixing this tubular body to rigid cross 3 can be made in different ways.
  • each heel 7 of the tubular body 4 affects a generally angled profile applied against two sides of the cross 3.
  • heel 7 and cross 3 fixing points are then provided between heel 7 and cross 3 to immobilize the tubular body 4 on the crosspiece 3.
  • the attachment may for example be made by riveting or any other suitable fastener.
  • the heel 7 of the tubular body 4 which comprises two wings forming between them a square, has one of its wings intended to bear on the upper face or the top of the crossbar 3 while its other wing comes on a side face of said cross member 3 in the state fixed from the crossbar 3 to the longitudinal members 1 of the frame.
  • each heel 7 of the body 4 tubular can form a tongue that can be slidably inserted into a rail formed in said crossbar 3. This results in a simple assembly.
  • the assembly can then be attached to the longitudinal members 1 of the frame.
  • a fixing part 10, preferably of the cradle type which is fixed by means of screws 11 to the longitudinal members 1 of the box spring frame or of bed.
  • the crossbar 3 can then be housed in the reception area formed by the cradle-shaped attachment piece. Once this 3 located inside said receiving space, this crossbar 3 can be retained within said space preferably by snapping. So, a tab disposed at the right of the receiving space of the piece 10 of cradle type fixing and represented in 12 in the figures ensures this function snap-fastening of the cross-member 3.
  • the cross-member 3 thus coupled to each of its ends to the longitudinal members 1 via the parts 10 fastener occupies a perfectly stable position.
  • crossbeams / tubular bodies with different rigidities from one suspension element to another it suffices to modify by example the constituent material of the tubular body 4 or the thickness of this last or even the number of openings 8 formed in the flanks of the tubular body 4.
  • the transom 3 will preferably be produced under shape of a metal profile so as to give the whole a resistance sufficient mechanical.
  • This crossbar affects, in the example shown, the shape of a section with rectangular section. Of course, other forms of shapes, as well as other forms of heels, could have been considered in an equivalent way.
