Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of relaxation beds, in particular those in which it is possible to incline a bust / head portion and / or a foot portion.
  • the present invention more particularly relates to coating planes comprising a bed frame frame extending in a longitudinal direction and having a first plan portion and a second plan portion, means for inclining the second plan portion relative to the first plan portion along an axis transverse to the bed frame.
  • Such sleeping plans are known elsewhere and are generally intended to support mattresses whose thickness may vary depending on the comfort sought by the user.
  • the first and second plane portions form an angle, while the mattress is curved, so that the outer surface of the mattress, that is to say that able to be in contact with the coating plane, can not marry in a natural way the part of the sleeping plane forming the junction between the first and second portions of plan.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to provide a sleeping surface with improved comfort.
  • This object is achieved by the fact that it further comprises an intermediate plane portion disposed between the first and second plane portions and means for inclining the intermediate plane portion with respect to the first and second plane portions such that when the second plane portion is inclined, the angle of inclination between the intermediate plane portion and the first plane portion is less than the angle of inclination between the first and second plane portions, the coating plane further comprising means for translational movement of the second plane portion, the intermediate plane portion being pivotally attached to the second portion; plan
  • the intermediate plane portion supports the mattress at all times, especially when the one is in an inclined position.
  • the angle of inclination between the intermediate plane portion and the first plane portion is advantageously less than the angle of inclination between the first and second plane portions, it will be understood that provide that the inclination of the intermediate plane is such that the intermediate plane is substantially tangential to the outer surface of the mattress when the inclined, whereby the mattress in inclined position remains supported by the sleeping plane even in the absence of the user.
  • the sleeping surface according to the invention makes it possible to avoid that, when seated, the user feels a depression of the mattress when the latter is inclined.
  • the second plane portion corresponds to the portion of the plane that supports the bust and possibly the head of the user, while the first portion of the plane is that intended to support the rest of the body of the body. user.
  • the mattress undergoes flexural deformation such that, viewed along its longitudinal direction, it exhibits an average fiber, the length of which is substantially equal to the length of the unfolded mattress and an outer fiber, close to the coating plane, whose length is greater than that of the average fiber.
  • the second plane portion moves in translation when the second plane portion is inclined, so as to accompany the movement of the mattress during the inclination thereof. This ensures a constant support of the mattress.
  • the second plane portion can only pivot relative to the intermediate plane portion. There is therefore no relative distance between the intermediate plane portion and the second plane portion.
  • the intermediate plane portion is pivotally attached to the first plane portion.
  • the means for inclining the second plane portion relative to the first plane portion comprise at least one support arm pivotally mounted about an axis transverse to the bed.
  • the support arm extends in the longitudinal direction of the coating plane, towards the end of the coating plane located on the side of the head of the user.
  • the bed frame has at least one long pan extending in the longitudinal direction of the bed base while the support arm is advantageously pivotally attached to this long pan.
  • the support arm can be inclined relative to the long pan.
  • the means for inclining the intermediate plane portion comprise a guiding means adapted to cooperate with said at least one support arm, so that the inclination of the support arm causes the inclination of the plane portion. intermediate.
  • the guide means comprises at least one wheel fixed to the intermediate plane portion while being able to move along the support arm.
  • the wheel is intended to roll along the support arm.
  • the means for inclining the second plane portion relative to the first plane portion comprise two support arms arranged on either side of the width of the bed frame.
  • the guide means preferably comprises two wheels able to move along the support arms, in order to improve the stability of the second plane portion during its inclination.
  • the means for inclining the second plane portion comprise a guiding device adapted to guide the displacement of the second plane portion relative to said at least one support arm, when the second plane portion is inclined.
  • the first plane portion is disposed substantially in a plane defined by the bed frame.
  • the intermediate plane portion comprises a support member adapted to support a mattress.
  • This support element may comprise for example but not necessarily a suspension slat.
  • suspension devices may be provided on the first and / or second portion (s) plane, such slats attached at their ends to slatted ends.
  • some comprise such suspension devices provided with slats arranged on the first and second plan portions. For these, when the second portion of plane is inclined, it is found that the suspension devices are so close that the mattress tends to be pinched between the suspension devices of the first and second plan portions, which may 'damage the mattress.
  • a coating plane 10 which comprises a bed base frame 12 comprising two long panels 28 extending in the longitudinal direction of the coating plane 10.
  • the coating plane 10 comprises a first plane portion 14 and a second plane portion 16 for supporting a mattress 32.
  • the first plane portion 14 corresponds to a portion of the lying plane 10 which is intended to support the legs of the user (not shown here), while the second portion 16 is in turn intended to support the bust and the head of the user.
  • the second plane portion 16 is adapted to be inclined with respect to the first plane portion 14 with means 18, 20,22 for inclining the second plane portion 16 relative to the first plane portion 14 around a transverse axis to the bed frame 12.

  • These 18,20,22 means further comprises motor means 18 for pivoting the support arms 20, and a guide device 22 adapted to guide the displacement of the second plane portion 16 relative to the arms 20.
  • Said guide device 22 comprises a pair of triangular pieces 22 which are fixed at each of the transverse ends of the second plane portion 16, as well as rollers 22 ' intended to cooperate with the support arms 20.
  • the coating plane 10 further comprises an intermediate plane portion 24 extending transversely to the coating plane, this intermediate plane portion 24 being disposed between the first plane portion 14 and the second portion of the plane. plan 16.
  • the portion of intermediate plane 24 is fixed in rotation on the one hand to the first plane portion 14 by means of a pivot axis B transversal to the frame of bed base 12, and secondly to the second portion of plane 16 through a pivot axis C also transverse to the bed frame 12.
  • the pivot axis of the support arm 20 and the pivot axis C between the second portion of plane 16 and the intermediate plane portion 24 are arranged in the same plane which is substantially orthogonal to the plane defined by the frame of the bed base 12, or slightly inclined with respect to that, as represented on the figure 3 .
