Definitions

  • the invention relates to a head or body pad, in particular a pillow, a mattress or the like, according to the preamble of claim 1, see. US-A-6,170,808 ,
  • a head or body pad in particular a pillow, a mattress or the like, comprising an insert with a cover to further develop such that a certain breathability is provided to perspiration in Kopfauflage- or Body support area to prevent.
  • a breathable head or body pad in the form of a breathable pad or mattress is provided, which preferably permits internal ventilation of the pad. Because of the rigidity of the insert in conjunction with the open cavities results in a ventilation system, in particular by sweat or heat can be removed from the head or body. This happens because during the movement of the head or the body on the cushion or mattress, the spring elements are loaded or unloaded, whereby the respective cavity is reduced / enlarged, which in particular causes an automatic ventilation of the insert.
  • This design provides a breathable head or body pad capable of keeping heat away from the head area so as to inhibit perspiration.
  • the cavities kept open by the spring elements can also be used for other devices, wherein it is to be remembered to accommodate, for example, a radio, a heater, a vibrator or a ventilation in the cavities.
  • the cavity or cavities are formed by channels which extend transversely to the lying direction. These channels are open to the side walls of the block-like foam body.
  • the cover it is proposed according to the invention that preferably air-permeable fabric be attached to the side regions of the block-like foam body, which in particular promotes air circulation through the cushion core.
  • the lying surface is proposed that the top of the block-like foam body is formed wavy.
  • a further advantageous embodiment of the spring element used provides that the spring element arranged in the cavity is formed as a one-piece plastic element with at least one strip-shaped, concave spring shell and a strip-shaped, concave spring base, the spring shell and spring base facing each other at their free ends having a common connection region ,
  • the structural design described allows a particularly simple and cost-effective production.
  • the upper spring part and the lower spring part can be arranged laterally offset from each other, wherein the connecting portion is formed as a substantially U-shaped elbow.
  • the free ends of the upper spring part may expediently have a fork-shaped region with two webs, wherein each web is connected to the free end of a laterally offset next to the spring upper part spring lower part.
  • the lower spring part can be designed in an equivalent manner so that it has a fork-shaped region with two webs.
  • the width of the web-shaped spring top is measured greater than the width of the spring base.
  • the connecting device has at least one receptacle arranged on an outer spring upper part or spring lower part and a corresponding connecting tongue located on the opposite side facing away from the receptacle on an outer spring lower part or spring upper part.
  • Receiving and connecting tongue engage in the assembly of multiple spring elements into one another, so that this can form spring element layers that correspond in length to the cavities or channels of the head or body support, so that they are completely filled.
  • Only a partial filling of the cavities with spring elements is conceivable.
  • the connecting tongue may have at least one latching lug.
  • the width of the outer spring bases is dimensioned substantially half as large as the width of the remaining spring bases.
  • the channel-shaped cavities within the head or body underlay are designed differently in cross-section.
  • the size of the cavities is matched to the size of the spring elements, so that with larger spring elements and depending on the plastic material used a harder spring action is achievable.
  • this spring effect can also be influenced by the parameters of the spring top and spring bottom widths.
  • the installation of different spring element sizes in the cavities is possible.
  • the introduction of the spring elements in the insert of the head or body support is facilitated by the fact that the foam body has a running from the bottom to the cavity separation section. Due to the separating cut, the head or body support can be unfolded from the underside so that the spring elements can be easily inserted into the cavity or cavities of the pillow or mattress. After inserting the spring elements then the opposite cut surfaces of the separating cut can be glued together. Alternatively, a separating cut for producing an insert upper part and insert lower part is also conceivable.
  • a further variant of the introduction of the spring elements into the cavities of the pad or the mattress provides that a plastic film is arranged between the spring element and the inner surface of the cavity in the foam body.
  • This plastic film may for example be formed like a tube, and pulled over the latter before the introduction of the spring elements in the channel-like cavities on the outside. Due to the low friction between the smooth plastic film and the inner wall of the foam body then the strip-shaped composite spring elements can be easily inserted or retract into the cavity.
  • FIG. 1 shows in perspective a head or body pad in the form of a pad 1, whose Inlett 2 consists of a block-like foam body 3, wherein the block-like foam body 3 is equipped with at least one cavity 4, in which one or more non-inventive spring elements 5 are arranged, which ensure a supporting spring-loaded support.
  • the individual spring elements 5, shown in detail in the FIG. 2 . 3 and 4 In this case, have a rigidity, which prevents a closing of the cavities or the cavity 4 for automatic ventilation of the head or body pad 1 due to the pressure pad of a head.
  • the cavity or cavities 4 are formed by channels which extend transversely to the lying direction.
  • the respective channel is formed open to the side walls 6.1 and 6.2 of the block-like foam body 3. This ensures that a direct exchange of air and a moisture release between the pillow core and the environment can take place.
  • the one or more non-inventive spring elements 5 are strip-like design, wherein the single spring element 5 preferably consists of a head plate 7 with supporting spring arms 8, which form a base 9 for fixing to a bar 10 or the like.
  • the base 9 may be formed as a locking element, so that the spring element 5 can be separated from the bar 10, and correspondingly different stiff spring elements 5 can be connected to the bar 10.
  • the cover 11 may be formed such that it is preferably made of an air-permeable fabric 12 at the side portions of the block-like foam body 3, as in the example FIG. 2 is indicated in one area.
  • the upper side 13 of the block-like foam body 3 is formed wavy, wherein the single waveform can be additionally ribbed.
  • FIG. 5 a head pad according to the invention shown in the form of a pillow, in which the design of the cavities and the spring elements arranged therein is solved differently.
  • the head pad according to the invention is also equipped with two cavities 14.
  • the cavities 14 are configured as channels extending transversely to the reclining direction, in each of which a plurality of juxtaposed spring elements 15 are arranged.
  • the design of the head pad according to the FIG. 5 otherwise corresponds to that of the embodiment according to the FIGS. 1 to 4 ,
  • the cross section of the channel-like configured cavities 14 has been chosen differently, wherein the respectively arranged in the cavities 14 spring elements 15 have been adjusted in size accordingly.
  • the different size of the spring elements 15 allows a different hardness setting of the respective cushion area, with usually the larger cross section brings a slightly harder spring property of the spring elements 15 with it.
  • a different hardness design of the corresponding cushion areas is additionally given by the possibility that 15 different plastics are used for the selection of materials of the spring elements.
  • the special embodiment of the spring elements 15 according to the invention is in the FIG. 6 clarified.
  • the spring element 15 consists of spring tops 16. which are designed as strip-shaped, concave elements.
  • the free ends of the spring tops 16 are fork-shaped and have two webs 17 and 18, which are each connected to a likewise strip-shaped, concave spring base 19.
  • the lower spring parts 19 have fork-shaped end portions.
  • the respective concave shaped spring tops 16 and spring bases 19 have, as shown in the FIG. 6 is shown, with their end regions to each other, so that when seen in cross-section, a corresponding cavity results.
  • the outer dimensions of the upper spring parts 16 and the lower spring parts 19 correspond to the inner contour of the cavities 14, wherein it is clear that that the spring tops 16 and lower springs 19 due to their design of a force on the pillow due to a head lying on it provide a corresponding resistance, but at the same time can be pushed together within certain limits.
  • the rigidity of the spring elements 15 is dimensioned such that the forces normally acting on a corresponding cushion preclude a complete compression of the spring elements 15.
  • the spring tops 16 and the spring bases 19 are each coupled together by means of a common substantially U-shaped connection region.
  • the connecting region 20 is configured substantially horizontally.
  • the width of the spring tops 16 is chosen to be wider according to an advantageous embodiment, as the spring lower parts 19, so that there is a corresponding wider support surface and thus improves the bearing feel for resting on the pillow head.
  • each a connecting device 20 is arranged, which allows a coupling of a plurality of spring elements 15 to a spring element strand.
