Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for cleaning a mattress.
  • Modular mattresses of this type with interchangeable core elements are known. Their advantage over conventional latex or spring mattresses is that the use of core elements of different hardnesses different hard support zones can be realized, which are adapted to the individual needs of the user.
  • known mattresses sold by the company Prosleep a total of fourteen core elements (trimont modules) are provided which have a stepped cross-section tapering from a base surface and alternating with the base at the top and bottom of the mattress frame are used, wherein between the core modules horizontally extending ventilation channels are formed.
  • a mattress in which cuboid inserts are introduced into a mattress frame. These inserts can be cleaned accordingly by removing them from the inside of the mattress. Cleaning involves removing dust from the surfaces of the bays. In particular, the cleaning of the inserts is facilitated by having an X-shape in cross-section, whereby the dust accumulates in the predetermined by the X notch and can be easily removed from there. The cleaning is therefore limited to the surface of the inserts.
  • the present invention has the object to provide a method for the complete cleaning of mattresses.
  • the core elements are covered with a breathable material, in particular nonwoven fabric, which has a lower coefficient of friction than the material of the core elements, and the core elements are taken and washed individually or several from the interior of the frame.
  • the design of the core elements with a coating offers the advantage that the core elements can be washed. With removable coatings, the coatings can be washed alone.
  • the mattress according to the invention is very hygienic and particularly well suited for use in hospitals.
  • the coatings may consist of a nonwoven fabric or breathable spacer knits, which have a low coefficient of friction and also optimize air circulation. In addition, this makes it easier to replace the individual core elements, which are usually foam blocks of an elastic material.
  • the core elements are block-shaped, the possibility is created to create discrete support zones with a predetermined, defined hardness. In conventional mattresses, this is not possible because the core elements partially overlap.
  • the width of the core elements is chosen to be comparatively small, so that the mattress according to the invention has a high number of support zones in which the hardness can be adjusted individually by using a core element with a desired hardness or strength.
  • the core elements may be selected from ten different qualities. In order to keep the number of different core elements low, it is provided according to a preferred embodiment that the core elements all have the same width, so that the system actually only requires as many different core elements as hardness levels are to be realized.
  • the core elements on their upper side in particular The transition areas are rounded to their side walls. This is to ensure that at the transitions between the core elements of different strength no sharpening forces occur and a smooth transition between the core elements is possible.
  • the core elements may have recesses on their longitudinal sides, which extend over the entire height of the core elements.
  • the recesses of two adjacent core elements facing each other in pairs so that they together form a passage opening.
  • a mattress 1 according to the invention is shown, which has the usual dimensions with a length of 2 m, a width of 1 m and a height of 25 cm.
  • the mattress has an elastic mattress frame 1 made of foam. This is formed by a flat bottom element 2 and a likewise flat upper part 3, which are connected to each other at the transverse sides of the mattress by block-like head and foot elements 4, 5, for example glued and are kept at a distance.
  • a total of 26 block-shaped core elements 6 are provided made of foam, the are inserted into the mattress frame 1 from the longitudinal side and extend parallel to the mattress transverse sides.
  • the core elements 6 have a height of the frame interior corresponding height of about 14 cm here, a mattress width corresponding length of 1 m and a width of about 7 cm.
  • the core elements 6 are available in ten different hardness or strength qualities, so that the mattress hardness or strength in the mattress longitudinal direction can be adjusted individually to the needs of a user. How the particular FIG.
  • the core elements 6 are rounded at their tops 6a and in particular in their transition areas to the longitudinal side walls 6b, so that at the transitions between different core elements 6 with different strengths little or no shear forces occur and a smooth transition between the core elements. 6 is possible.
  • the radius of the rounding should be at least 3.5 cm.
  • the longitudinal side walls 6b of the core elements 6 are provided with punched recesses 7, which extend over the entire height of the core elements 6.
  • the recesses 7 are formed semicircular, the recesses 7 of adjacent core elements 6 facing each other in pairs and complement each other to a circular passage opening 8 with a radius of 0.5 to 1 cm.
  • These passage openings 8 provide the vertical ventilation system the mattress, in which air can circulate between the mattress top and the mattress base. It has been shown that a pumping effect impinges in the through-holes 8 by the movements of a person lying on the mattress and the associated permanent deformations and re-deformations.
  • the core elements 6 are covered with a breathable material, in particular a nonwoven fabric, which has a comparatively low coefficient of friction, so that individual core elements 6 are made of the material shown in FIG FIG. 1 shown removed mattress with little effort and then a new core element 6 can be inserted.
  • a breathable material in particular a nonwoven fabric, which has a comparatively low coefficient of friction
  • the flat bottom element of the mattress frame 1 here has a height of about 4 cm and consists of a firmer foam material, which should give the mattress from below hold and stabilize it. Not shown is provided over the entire floor element 2 distributed ventilation holes with a diameter of, for example, 0.5 to 1 cm, to increase the air circulation in the mattress.
  • the mattress top 3 is formed in two layers and has an upper first layer 3a of a viscoelastic foam material and an underlying layer 3b of a breathable foam. How the particular FIG. 4 shows, the first layer 3a as Noppenschaum Mrs formed, wherein it has a height of about 4 cm.
  • Such nub foam materials or pyramidal foam materials with individual upwardly conically or pyramidally tapering nubs 9 are known per se and are used in particular for sound insulation purposes.
  • the individual knobs 9 cause an increase in surface area and, moreover, a massaging effect which is intended to support and enliven the microcirculation in the tissue of a person lying on the mattress.
  • the second layer 3b underlying the nub foam layer 1 essentially has the function of transporting moisture away from the body.
  • the mattress assembly is provided with a coating.
  • This coating can be made of materials such as microcare or lyocell and optionally equipped with a breathable spacer fabric to further improve the air circulation and thus the sleeping environment.
