Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Matratze mit Auflage für ein Liegemöbel, insbesondere für ein Bettgestell mit Lattenrost, welche Matratze mit Haltemitteln ausgestattet ist, an welchen mindestens eine auf die Matratze auflegbare Auflage, die mit Befestigungsmitteln ausgestattet ist, lösbar befestigbar ist.The present invention relates to a mattress with support for a reclining furniture, in particular for a bed frame with slatted base, which mattress is provided with holding means to which at least one mattress on the support, which is equipped with fastening means, is detachably fastened.

Um Matratzen möglichst an die Bedürfnisse der Benutzer anpassen zu können, können diese mit gewünschten Eigenschaften aufweisende Auflagen versehen werden. Dadurch kann eine Matratze, die im wesentlichen aus einem Kernmaterial aufgebaut und mit einer Umhüllung versehen ist, durch eine Auswahl bestimmter Auflagen, die auf diese Matratze gelegt werden, speziell aufgebaut werden.In order to be able to adapt mattresses as far as possible to the needs of the user, these requirements can be provided with desired properties. Thereby, a mattress, which is essentially constructed of a core material and provided with a cover, can be specially constructed by a selection of certain pads laid on this mattress.

Um zu vermeiden, dass diese Auflagen auf der Matratze hin- und herrutschen und möglicherweise Falten bilden, die sich negativ auf das Wohlbefinden der auf der Matratze liegenden Person auswirken können, ist es erforderlich, diese Auflagen an der Matratze zu befestigen. Es ist beispielsweise bekannt, als Befestigungsmittel Reissverschlüsse zu verwenden. Hierbei wird der eine Teil eines vollständig trennbaren Reissverschlusses an der Matratze befestigt, während der andere Teil an der Auflage befestigt ist. Über diesen oder mehrere Reissverschlüsse kann somit die Auflage mit der Matratze verbunden werden.In order to prevent these pads from sliding around on the mattress and possibly forming wrinkles that may adversely affect the well-being of the person lying on the mattress, it is necessary to attach these pads to the mattress. It is known, for example, to use zippers as fasteners. Here, the one part of a fully separable zipper is attached to the mattress, while the other part is attached to the support. About this or more zippers thus the pad can be connected to the mattress.

Bei dieser Befestigungsart besteht der Nachteil, dass die Reissverschlussteile so an die Matratze bzw. Auflage befestigt werden müssen, dass diese genau übereinstimmend sind. Falls eine andere Auflage auf die Matratze aufgelegt und mit dieser verbunden werden soll, müsste diese mit entsprechenden Reissverschlusselementen ausgestattet sein. Eine derartige Herstellung ist relativ kompliziert, zudem ist sowohl an der Matratze wie auch an der Auflage bei abgenommener Auflage das jeweilige Reissverschlusselement vorhanden, was beispielsweise beim Reinigen nachteilig sein kann. Zudem, wenn beide Seiten der Matratze mit derartigen Reissverschlusselementen ausgestattet sind, kratzen diese an der Untermatratze, was unerwünscht ist. Zudem weist diese Befestigungsmöglichkeit den Nachteil auf, dass insbesondere bei Matratzen, die auf Untergestellen liegen, deren Kopfteil und Fussteil verstellbar ist, dass die Auflage im Knickbereich der Matratze Falten wirft oder im Streckbereich der Matratze übermässig gedehnt wird, was sich negativ auf den Liegekomfort auswirken kann.In this type of fastening there is the disadvantage that the zipper parts must be attached to the mattress or support so that they are exactly the same. If another edition is to be placed on the mattress and connected to it, this would have to be equipped with appropriate zipper elements. Such a production is relatively complicated, in addition, the respective zipper element is present both on the mattress as well as on the support when the support is removed, which may be disadvantageous, for example, during cleaning. In addition, if both sides of the mattress are equipped with such zipper elements, these scratch the mattress, which is undesirable. moreover this mounting option has the disadvantage that, in particular in mattresses which are located on bases, the head part and foot part is adjustable, that the support wrinkles wrinkles in the bending region of the mattress or excessively stretched in the draw area of the mattress, which can have a negative effect on the lying comfort ,

Anstelle von Reissverschlüssen können in bekannter Weise auch Klettverschlüsse verwendet werden. Diese haben aber den Nachteil des Verschmutzens, wodurch die Haftung abnehmen kann, andererseits wird oftmals das Geräusch beim Lösen der Haftung als störend empfunden.Instead of zippers also Velcro closures can be used in a known manner. However, these have the disadvantage of contamination, whereby the adhesion can decrease, on the other hand often the noise when loosening the adhesion is distracting.

Die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung besteht nun darin, ein Befestigungssystem für eine Matratze mit darauf auflegbarer Auflage zu schaffen, welches ermöglicht, die Auflage in optimaler Weise auf der Matratze zu befestigen, auch wenn die Matratze geknickt oder gebogen wird. Zusätzlich soll dieses Befestigungssystem flexibel in der Anwendung sein.The object of the present invention is now to provide a fastening system for a mattress with it can be placed on the support, which makes it possible to fix the pad in an optimal manner on the mattress, even if the mattress is bent or bent. In addition, this attachment system should be flexible in use.

Erfindungsgemäss erfolgt die Lösung dieser Aufgabe dadurch, dass jedes Haltemittel aus einem lang gestreckten, im wesentlichen längsstabilen, flexiblen Element besteht, von welchem jeweils zwei erste Bereiche mit der Matratze verbunden sind, während der dazwischen liegende zweite Bereich frei ist, welche Haltemittel mindestens über einen Teil des Umfangs am Randbereich der Oberseite und/oder der Unterseite der Matratze befestigt sind und der jeweilige Abstand zwischen zwei zweiten Bereichen im wesentlichen konstant ist, und dass die Befestigungsmittel am Randbereich der Auflage angebracht sind und so angeordnet sind, dass sie im wesentlichen jeweils gegenüber einem zweiten Bereich der Haltemittel zu liegen kommen und diese Befestigungsmittel mit den entsprechenden zweiten Bereichen der Haltemittel verbindbar sind.According to the invention, the solution of this object is achieved in that each holding means consists of an elongated, substantially longitudinally stable, flexible element, each of which two first areas are connected to the mattress, while the intermediate second area is free, which holding means at least one Part of the circumference at the edge region of the top and / or the underside of the mattress are fixed and the respective distance between two second regions is substantially constant, and that the fastening means are mounted on the edge region of the support and are arranged so that they are substantially opposite each other come to rest a second region of the holding means and these fastening means are connectable to the corresponding second regions of the holding means.

Damit wird erreicht, dass die Auflage in optimaler Weise an der Matratze befestigt werden kann, auch wenn diese durch die Verstellmöglichkeit von Kopf- und Fussteilen an der Oberfläche Längenänderungen aufweist.This ensures that the pad can be optimally secured to the mattress, even if this has length changes due to the adjustment of the head and foot parts on the surface.

In vorteilhafter Weise entspricht der jeweilige gegenseitige Abstand der Befestigungsmittel einem ganzzahligen Vielfachen des Abstandes zwischen zwei zweiten Bereichen der Haltemittel. Die Befestigungsmittel können somit da vorgesehen werden, wo sie erforderlich sind, sie sind bezüglich der zweiten Bereiche der Haltemittel immer passend angebracht.Advantageously, the respective mutual distance of the fastening means corresponds to an integer multiple of the distance between two second regions of the holding means. The fastening means can thus be provided where they are required, they are always fitted with respect to the second portions of the holding means.

In vorteilhafter Weise erstreckt sich das lang gestreckte Element über mindestens einen Teil der Haltemittel, wobei abwechselnd einem mit der Matratze verbundenen ersten Bereich ein zweiter freier Bereich folgt. Dadurch lässt sich die Befestigung der Haltemittel an der Matratze vereinfachen.Advantageously, the elongated element extends over at least a part of the holding means, alternately following a first region connected to the mattress, a second free region. This makes it easier to attach the holding means to the mattress.

Eine weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung der Erfindung besteht darin, dass das lang gestreckte Element an einem Längsrandbereich eines ersten Bandes angebracht ist, dessen anderer Längsrandbereich mit einer Umhüllung, mit welchem die Matratze versehen ist, verbunden, insbesondere vernäht, ist. Damit wird das Anbringen der Haltemittel an der Matratze vereinfacht.A further advantageous embodiment of the invention consists in that the elongated element is attached to a longitudinal edge region of a first band whose other longitudinal edge region is connected, in particular sewn, to a sheath with which the mattress is provided. This simplifies the attachment of the holding means to the mattress.

In vorteilhafter Weise umfassen die Befestigungsmittel der Auflage ebenfalls mindestens ein weiteres lang gestrecktes im wesentlichen längsstabiles flexibles Element, welches ebenfalls erste Bereiche, die mit der Auflage verbunden sind, und zweite freie Bereiche aufweist, die zwischen zwei ersten Bereichen liegen, und welche zweiten Bereiche voneinander einen im wesentlichen konstanten Abstand haben, welcher Abstand dem gegenseitigen Abstand der zweiten Bereiche der Haltemittel entspricht. Die Befestigungsmittel der Auflage und die Haltemittel der Matratze weisen somit das selbe Grundelement auf, was die Herstellung und die Anwendung erleichtert.Advantageously, the attachment means of the support also comprise at least one further elongate substantially longitudinally stable flexible element which also has first regions connected to the support and second free regions lying between two first regions and which second regions are mutually distinct have a substantially constant distance, which distance corresponds to the mutual distance of the second regions of the holding means. The attachment means of the support and the holding means of the mattress thus have the same basic element, which facilitates the production and the application.

Das weitere lang gestreckte Element ist ebenfalls an einem Längsrandbereich eines zweiten Bandes angebracht, dessen anderer Längsrandbereich mit einer Umhüllung, mit welchem die Auflage versehen ist, verbunden, insbesondere vernäht, ist. Auch hierdurch wird die Befestigung an der Auflage vereinfacht.The further elongate element is also attached to a longitudinal edge region of a second band, whose other longitudinal edge region is connected, in particular sewn, to an envelope with which the support is provided. This also simplifies attachment to the support.

Die Befestigungsmittel umfassen ferner Verbindungselemente, welche mit ihrem einen Endbereich am weiteren lang gestreckten Element jeweils in einem zweiten Bereich gehalten sind, während der andere Endbereich die Form eines Hakens aufweist, welcher in den zweiten Bereich des lang gestreckten Elementes einhängbar ist. Dadurch wird in vorteilhafter Weise eine sehr einfache und anpassbare Befestigungsmöglichkeit erhalten.The fastening means further comprise connecting elements which with their one end region on the further elongated element in each case are held in a second region, while the other end region has the shape of a hook, which can be suspended in the second region of the elongated element. As a result, a very simple and customizable mounting option is advantageously obtained.

In vorteilhafter Weise ist mindestens das weitere lang gestreckte Element als Kordel mit einer Dicke d ausgestattet. Auf diese Kordel lässt sich der eine Endbereich des Verbindungselementes, der als weiterer Haken ausgebildet ist, dessen Ende mit einem Vorsprung versehen ist, mit welchem die Öffnung des weiteren Hakens teilweise geschlossen ist, aufclipsen, ein unbeabsichtigtes Aushängen des Verbindungselementes wird dadurch vermieden. Dadurch können aber die Verbindungselemente, beispielsweise zum Reinigen, trotzdem sowohl von der Matratze als auch von der Auflage in einfacher Weise weggenommen werden.Advantageously, at least the further elongate element is provided as a cord having a thickness d. On this cord can be the one end portion of the connecting element, which is designed as a further hook, the end of which is provided with a projection with which the opening of the further hook is partially closed, clip on, an accidental unhooking of the connecting element is thereby avoided. As a result, however, the connecting elements, for example for cleaning, can still be removed from both the mattress and the support in a simple manner.

In vorteilhafter Weise sind die Verbindungselemente aus einem elastischen Kunststoff hergestellt, wodurch ein leichtes Aufclipsen auf die Kordel erreicht werden kann, und was eine einfache und kostengünstige Herstellung ermöglicht.Advantageously, the connecting elements are made of an elastic plastic, whereby a slight clipping on the cord can be achieved, and which allows a simple and inexpensive production.

Eine Ausführungsform der Erfindung wird nachfolgend anhand der beiliegenden Zeichnung beispielhaft näher erläutert.An embodiment of the invention will be explained in more detail by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Die Befestigung des lang gestreckten Elementes 5 mit dem ersten Band 3 und des lang gestreckten Elementes 6 mit dem zweiten Band 4 kann in den ersten Bereichen 7 bzw. 8 durch Aufnähen erfolgen, es ist auch denkbar, wenn das erste Band 3 und das zweite Band 4 aus einem Gewebe bestehen, dass diese lang gestreckten Elemente 5 bzw. 6 jeweils an einem Längsrandbereich 11 des ersten Bandes 3 bzw. des zweiten Bandes 4 eingewoben sind. Die Befestigung der lang gestreckten Elemente 5 und 6 muss so sein, dass eine Längsverschiebung unmöglich ist.The holding means 1 and the fastening means 2 comprise an elongate, substantially longitudinally stable, flexible element 5 or 6, which is formed, for example, in each case from a cord with a thickness d (FIG. 2). Of course, these elongate elements 5 and 6 may be formed differently, for example, band-shaped. Each of these elongated elements 5 and 6 is respectively connected to the first band 3 and the second band 4 along first regions 7 and 8, respectively, while between these first regions 7 and 8 there are second regions 9 and 10, respectively the elongate element 5 or 6 is free. The second regions 10 of the elongate element 6 of the fastening means 2 come to lie in Fig. 1 on the lower, not visible side of the second band 4. The attachment of the elongate element 5 with the first band 3 and the elongate element 6 with the second band 4 may be in the first regions 7 or 8 by sewing, it is also conceivable if the first band 3 and the second band 4 consist of a fabric, that these elongated elements 5 and 6 respectively at a longitudinal edge region 11 of the first band 3 and the second Bandes 4 are woven. The attachment of the elongated elements 5 and 6 must be such that a longitudinal displacement is impossible.

Die ersten Bereiche 7 und die zweiten Bereiche 9 des ersten Bandes 3 sind so angeordnet, dass der jeweilige Abstand zwischen zwei zweiten Bereichen konstant ist und eine Länge a aufweist. Die jeweilige Länge der ersten Bereiche 7 und der zweiten Bereiche 9 sind etwa gleich gross und betragen in diesem Ausführungsbeispiel etwa 1 bis 2 cm.The first regions 7 and the second regions 9 of the first band 3 are arranged so that the respective distance between two second regions is constant and has a length a. The respective length of the first regions 7 and the second regions 9 are approximately the same size and in this embodiment are approximately 1 to 2 cm.

In entsprechender Weise ist das weitere lang gestreckte Element 6 so am zweiten Band 4 angeordnet, dass auch hier die zweiten Bereiche 10 voneinander einen konstanten Abstand haben, der eine Länge b aufweist. Die beiden Abstände a und b sind in diesem Ausführungsbeispiel gleich, die ersten Bereiche 8 und die zweiten Bereiche 10 des Befestigungsmittels 2 sind ebenfalls etwa gleich lang, die Länge entspricht der Länge der ersten Bereiche 7 und der zweiten Bereiche 9 der Haltemittel 1.In a corresponding manner, the further elongate element 6 is arranged on the second band 4 such that here too the second regions 10 have a constant distance from one another which has a length b. The two distances a and b are the same in this embodiment, the first regions 8 and the second regions 10 of the fastening means 2 are also about the same length, the length corresponds to the length of the first regions 7 and the second regions 9 of the holding means first

Zum Verbinden miteinander werden die Haltemittel 1 und die Befestigungsmittel 2, wie später noch gesehen wird, parallel zueinander ausgerichtet, wobei jeweils einem ersten Bereich 7 der Haltemittel 1 ein erster Bereich 8 der Befestigungsmittel 2 gegenüberliegend ist und demzufolge einem zweiten Bereich 9 der Haltemittel 1 ein zweiter Bereich 10 der Befestigungsmittel 2 gegenüberliegend ist. In das weitere lang gestreckte Element 6 der Befestigungsmittel 2 ist ein Verbindungselement 12, das später noch beschrieben wird, mit dem einen Endbereich 13 eingesetzt, während der andere Endbereich 14 in das lang gestreckte Element 5 der Haltemittel 1 in einem zweiten freien Bereich 9 eingehängt werden kann.For connecting to each other, the holding means 1 and the fastening means 2, as will be seen later, aligned parallel to each other, wherein in each case a first region 7 of the holding means 1, a first region 8 of the fastening means 2 is opposite and consequently a second region 9 of the holding means 1 a second region 10 of the fastening means 2 is opposite. In the other elongated member 6 of the fastening means 2 is a connecting element 12, which will be described later, used with one end portion 13, while the other end portion 14 are suspended in the elongate member 5 of the holding means 1 in a second free area 9 can.

Wie aus Fig. 1 hervorgeht, können somit die Verbindungselemente 12 an irgend einer Stelle am weiteren lang gestreckten Element 6 in einem freien Bereich 10 der Befestigungsmittel 2 angebracht werden und im gegenüberliegenden zweiten Bereich 9 der Haltemittel 1 in das lang gestreckte Element 5 eingehängt werden. Es können so viele Verbindungselemente verwendet werden, wie erforderlich sind, und sie können dort eingesetzt werden, wo es notwendig ist. Die Verwendung der Verbindungselemente kann somit sehr flexibel gestaltet werden.As is apparent from Fig. 1, thus, the connecting elements 12 can be attached to any point on the further elongate element 6 in a free area 10 of the fastening means 2 and in the opposite second area 9 of the holding means 1 are suspended in the elongate element 5. As many fasteners as needed may be used and they may be used where necessary. The use of the connecting elements can thus be made very flexible.

In Fig. 2 ist ein Eckbereich einer Matratze 15 und einer Auflage 16 dargestellt. Das Kernmaterial der Matratze 15 ist mit einer Umhüllung 17 versehen, die einen ersten Teil 18, der sich über den Randbereich der Matratze 15 erstreckt und jeweils einen Spiegel 19 umfasst, welcher die Oberseite bzw. die Unterseite der Matratze 15 bedeckt. In die Verbindungsnaht 20 zwischen erstem Teil 18 und Spiegel 19 der Umhüllung ist der andere Längsrandbereich 20 des ersten Bandes 3 eingenäht. Das lang gestreckte Element 5 liegt demzufolge ausserhalb der Umhüllung 17 frei auf der Matratze 15.2, a corner region of a mattress 15 and a support 16 is shown. The core material of the mattress 15 is provided with a sheath 17 which comprises a first part 18 extending over the edge area of the mattress 15 and each comprising a mirror 19 covering the top and the bottom of the mattress 15, respectively. In the connecting seam 20 between the first part 18 and mirror 19 of the envelope of the other longitudinal edge portion 20 of the first band 3 is sewn. The elongated element 5 is therefore outside of the enclosure 17 freely on the mattress 15th

Die Auflage 16 ist ebenfalls mit einer Umhüllung 21 versehen, in deren Verbindungsnaht, entsprechend wie bei der Matratze 15, der andere Längsrandbereich 22 des zweiten Bandes 4 eingenäht ist. Auch hier liegt das lang gestreckte Element 6 frei auf der Oberfläche der Auflage 16.The support 16 is also provided with a sheath 21, in the connecting seam, as in the case of the mattress 15, the other longitudinal edge portion 22 of the second band 4 is sewn. Again, the elongated member 6 is exposed on the surface of the support 16th

Aus Fig. 3 ist ein Verbindungselement 12 ersichtlich, welches zum Verbinden des lang gestreckten Elementes 5 mit dem lang gestreckten Element 6 dient. Dieses Verbindungselement 12 weist einen Endbereich 13 auf, der als weiterer Haken 23 ausgebildet ist. Dieser Haken 23 ist an seinem Ende mit einem Vorsprung 24 versehen, mit welchem die Öffnung des weiteren Hakens 23 teilweise geschlossen ist. Dieser weitere Haken 23 wird über das lang gestreckte Element 6 der an der Auflage 16 angeordneten Befestigungsmittel 2 aufgeclipst, mit dem Vorsprung 24 wird das Verbindungselement am lang gestreckten Element 6 gehalten.From Fig. 3, a connecting element 12 can be seen, which serves for connecting the elongate element 5 with the elongate element 6. This connecting element 12 has an end region 13, which is designed as a further hook 23. This hook 23 is provided at its end with a projection 24, with which the opening of the further hook 23 is partially closed. This further hook 23 is clipped over the elongate element 6 of the arranged on the support 16 fastener 2, with the projection 24, the connecting element is held on the elongated member 6.

Der andere Endbereich 14 weist die Form eines Haken 25 auf, der in üblicher Weise im lang gestreckten Element 5 der Haltemittel 1, die an der Matratze befestigt sind, eingehängt werden kann. Durch diese Ausgestaltung des Verbindungselementes bleibt dieses üblicherweise an den Befestigungsmitteln 2 der Auflage gehalten, zum Lösen der Verbindung zwischen Matratze 15 und Auflage 16 wird üblicherweise der Haken 25 vom lang gestreckten Element 5 gelöst. Zum Reinigen der Auflage 16 kann aber das Verbindungselement 12 von den Befestigungsmitteln 2 weggenommen werden, da die Verbindungselemente aus einem elastischen Kunststoff gefertigt sind, kann der Haken 23 zum Herausnehmen aus dem lang gestreckten Element 6 aufgebogen werden, so dass das lang gestreckte Element 6 unter dem Vorsprung 24 hindurch gleiten kann.The other end portion 14 has the form of a hook 25 which can be hooked in the usual way in the elongated element 5 of the holding means 1, which are fixed to the mattress. Due to this configuration of the connecting element, this usually remains held on the attachment means 2 of the support, for releasing the connection between the mattress 15 and support 16, the hook 25 is usually detached from the elongate element 5. To clean the support 16 but the connecting element 12 can be removed from the fasteners 2, since the connecting elements are made of an elastic plastic, the hook 23 can be bent up to remove from the elongated member 6, so that the elongated member 6 below the projection 24 can slide through.

Selbstverständlich kann das Verbindungselement 12 auch umgekehrt angebracht werden, d.h. der weitere Haken 23 wird über das lang gestreckte Element 5 der Haltemittel 1 aufgeclipst, während der Haken 25 am lang gestreckten Element 6 der Befestigungsmittel 2 eingehängt wird.Of course, the connecting element 12 can also be mounted in reverse, i. the further hook 23 is clipped over the elongated element 5 of the holding means 1, while the hook 25 is hooked on the elongate element 6 of the fastening means 2.

Aus den Fig. 4 und 5 ist die Matratze 15 ersichtlich. Das Haltemittel 1 ist bei dieser Ausführungsform über den ganzen Umfang der Matratze 15 geführt. Auch die Unterseite der Matratze 15, die nicht sichtbar ist, kann in entsprechender Weise mit Haltemitteln 1 ausgestattet sein. Selbstverständlich wäre es denkbar, die Haltemittel 1 nicht über den gesamten Umfang der Matratze 15 zu führen, sondern diese könnten auch streifenweise am entsprechenden Ort der Matratze angebracht sein.From Figs. 4 and 5, the mattress 15 can be seen. The holding means 1 is guided in this embodiment over the entire circumference of the mattress 15. Also, the underside of the mattress 15, which is not visible, can be equipped in a corresponding manner with holding means 1. Of course, it would be conceivable not to guide the holding means 1 over the entire circumference of the mattress 15, but these could also be mounted in strips at the corresponding location of the mattress.

Entsprechend ist die Auflage 16 mit Befestigungsmitteln 2 ausgestattet, wie dies aus den Fig. 6 und 7 entnehmbar ist. Auch hier könnten die Befestigungsmittel 2 auf der Oberseite und der Unterseite der Auflage 16 angebracht sein, dies ist üblicherweise aber nicht erforderlich.Accordingly, the support 16 is equipped with fastening means 2, as can be seen in FIGS. 6 and 7. Again, the fasteners 2 could be mounted on the top and bottom of the support 16, but this is usually not required.

Fig. 8 zeigt eine Matratze 15, bei welcher Kopfteil und Fussteil hochgestellt sind. Mit dem vorgängig beschriebenen Befestigungssystem kann auch in einer derartigen Lage der Matratze 15 eine optimale Verbindung zwischen Auflage 16 und Matratze 15 erhalten werden. Einerseits ist es möglich, dass durch die Ausgestaltung der Verbindungselemente ein gewisses Längsverschieben der Haltemittel bezüglich der Befestigungsmittel und somit der Auflage 16 bezüglich der Matratze 15 erfolgen kann, andererseits können in einer derartigen Anordnung die Verbindungselemente am jeweils passenden Ort in die Haltemittel bzw. Befestigungsmittel eingesetzt werden.Fig. 8 shows a mattress 15, wherein the head part and foot part are raised. With the fastening system described above, even in such a position of the mattress 15, an optimal connection between the support 16 and mattress 15 can be obtained. On the one hand, it is possible that a certain longitudinal displacement of the holding means with respect to the fastening means and thus the support 16 with respect to the mattress 15 can be done by the configuration of the connecting elements, on the other hand can be used in such an arrangement, the connecting elements at the appropriate location in the holding means or fastening means become.

Mit diesem System kann zwischen Auflage und Matratze noch eine Zwischenlage eingelegt werden, die bestimmte Eigenschaften aufweisen kann. Dadurch kann in praktisch beliebiger Weise eine Matratze mit Auflagen ausgestattet werden, die praktisch beliebige Eigenschaften aufweisen können. Durch die entsprechende Auswahl können die Bedürfnisse einer auf der Matratze liegenden Person praktisch in beliebiger Weise erfüllt werden.With this system, an intermediate layer can be inserted between the support and the mattress, which can have certain properties. As a result, a mattress can be equipped with pads in virtually any desired manner, which can have virtually any desired properties. By appropriate selection, the needs of lying on the mattress person can be met in virtually any way.

Insbesondere an der Matratze können die Haltemittel auch für andere Zwecke benutzt werden, beispielsweise können Fixleintücher oder Matratzenschoner mit Haken in diese Haltemittel eingehängt werden, wobei diese Auflagen in optimaler Weise auf der Matratze gehalten werden. Es ist auch möglich, beispielsweise bei einem Doppelbett zwei Matratzen durch Verwendung von zusätzlichen Verbindungselementen, die an ihren Enden mit Haken versehen sind, miteinander zu verbinden. Es ist auch denkbar, dass mehrere Auflagen auf eine Matratze aufgelegt und an dieser befestigt werden können, die Auflagen könnten untereinander verbunden werden, wenn die Befestigungsmittel jeweils an der Ober- und Unterseite dieser Auflage vorgesehen sind.In particular, on the mattress, the holding means can also be used for other purposes, for example, fixed sheets or mattress protectors can be hung with hooks in these holding means, these pads are kept in an optimal manner on the mattress. It is also possible, for example, in a double bed two mattresses by using additional connecting elements, which are provided at their ends with hooks to each other. It is also conceivable that multiple pads can be placed on a mattress and attached to this, the pads could be connected to each other when the fasteners are respectively provided on the top and bottom of this edition.
