Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an inflatable air device, such as an inflatable mattress, inflatable sofa, inflatable bridge or an inflatable boat.
  • An objective of the present invention is to provide an inflatable air cushion in the shape of a hexahedron having four or six approximately-flat surfaces; taking a rectangular air cushion as an example, four or six surfaces are provided that are "approximately flat" when the cushion is inflated.
  • the inflatable air cushion of the present invention has at least two sets of tension members therein.
  • Each set of tension members includes multiple and parallel tension members. The directions of tensile force generated by the two sets of tension members are perpendicular.
  • One of the tension members may be a strap member, and the other tension member may be a sheet member. When the tension member is a sheet member, it can have at least one aperture so that the strap member can pass through the aperture.
  • the inflatable air cushion of the present invention can also have three sets of tension members, wherein two strap members matching one sheet member. Taking a rectangular air cushion as an example, with three sets of tension members, all six faces of the rectangular air cushion are "approximately flat" when the rectangle air cushion is inflated.
  • an inflatable air cushion 10 comprises a cover 20 comprising an outer surface 21 and an inner surface 22, and a gas containment chamber 90 formed within the inner surface 22 of the cover 20.
  • An inlet device 30 is installed on the cover 20 to insure the chamber 90 remains full after inflation of air cushion 10, and to provide storage convenience after deflating air cushion 10.
  • a three-dimensional space 91 is formed, and a first direction axis 81, a second direction axis 82 and a third direction axis 83 define the three-dimensional space 91, wherein the axes are perpendicular to each other.
  • the inflatable air cushion 10 further comprises a plurality of first tension members 40 and a plurality of second tension members 50.
  • the second tension members 50 are sheet members 56; each sheet member 56 includes four ends 51, 52, 53, 54, wherein two ends 51, 52 are connected to the inner surface 22 of the cover 20 along the second direction axis 82. Therefore, when the inflatable air cushion 10 is fully inflated, it pulls along the second direction axis 82, but the other two ends are not connected to the inner surface 22 of the cover 20.
  • the sheet member 56 is a well-known member, and so requires no further description.
  • Every first tension member 40 is a strap member 47, and two ends 41, 42 of the strap member 47 are connected, along the first direction axis 81, to the inner surface 22 of the cover 20 so the strap member 47 along the first direction axis 81 comes under tension when the inflatable air cushion is inflated. Since strap members 47 are perpendicular to the sheet member 56, a plurality of apertures 561 on the sheet member 56 permit the strap members 47 to pass through.
  • the strap members 47 can be connected to the cover 20 in various ways; for example, as shown in FIG2 , a fixed base 71 with an aperture 711 is mounted on the inner surface 22 of the cover 20, and one end of the strap member 47 is connected to the fixed base 71 via the aperture 711. Another example, as shown in FIG.
  • 3 has a long strip 72 mounted on the inner surface 22 of the cover 20, and a dish 73 with a plurality of apertures 731 is fixed on the long strip 72 so that one end of the plurality of strap members 47 can be connected to the dish 73 via the apertures 731.
  • FIG. 4 Please refer to FIG. 4 for a first example not according to the present invention.
  • the major difference between the first embodiment and the first example is that the direction of extension of the strap member 47 of the inflatable air cushion 10a is identical to that of the sheet member 56, and so the sheet member 56 has no apertures 561. Both the strap member 47 along the first direction axis 81 a and the sheet member 56 along the second direction axis 82a come under tension when the inflatable air cushion 10a is inflated.
  • the inflatable air cushion 10b further comprises a plurality of third tension members 60.
  • Each third tension member 60 is a strap member 67, and has two ends 61, 62 connected to the inner surface 22 of the cover 20 so that the strap member 67 along the third direction axis 83 comes under tension when the inflatable air cushion 10b is inflated.
  • FIG. 6 Please refer to FIG. 6 for a third embodiment.
  • the major difference between the first and third embodiments is that two ends 53, 54 of the second tension members 50, 56 of the inflatable air cushion 10c are connected to the inner surface 22 so that the sheet member 56 along the third direction axis 83 comes under tension when the inflatable air cushion 10c is inflated.
  • FIG. 7 Please refer to FIG. 7 for a second example not according to the present invention.
  • the major difference between the first embodiment and the second invention is that the second tension member 50 in the inflatable air cushion 10d is a strap member 57 instead of a sheet member 56.
  • the inflatable air cushion 10e further comprises a plurality of third tension members 60.
  • Each third tension member 60 is a strap member 67 and has two ends 61, 62 that are connected to the inner surface 22 of the cover 20 so that the strap member 67 can pull along the third direction axis 83 when the inflatable air cushion 10e is inflated.
  • the first tension member 40 (strap member 47) along the first direction axis 81e comes under tension
  • the second tension member 50,(strap member 57) along the second direction axis 82e comes under tension.
  • FIG. 9 Please refer to FIG. 9 for a fourth embodiment.
  • the major purpose of this embodiment is to show that the inflatable air cushion 10f can have more than one set of lines for the first tension member 40 (strap member 47).
  • the inflatable air cushion 10g can have any shape, and is not limited to only rectangular shapes; the first tension member 40 (strap member 47) and the second tension member 50, (sheet member 56) can be disposed at different positions or have different shapes according to the shape of the inflatable air cushion 10g.
  • the inflatable air cushion 10h can have any shape, is not limited to only rectangular shapes, and may have inclined surfaces; the first tension member 40 (strap member 47) and the second tension member 50 (sheet member 56) can be disposed at different positions or have different shapes according to the shape of the inflatable air cushion 10h.
