Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a bed base with/without a mounted mattress, having a movement mechanism.
- Sleeping is of great importance in our life. Having a balanced diet, a peaceful environment and getting a sound sleep are most significant elements of sanity and health. Getting good and enough sleep has positive effects on life, namely, on energy, perception, thinking, performance, creativity, health, human relations and so on.
- Today most adults are proven to have sleep disorders and those who change their bed suffer from backache. The reasons for the backache can be given as follows: lack of exercise, incorrect sitting and posture and obesity as well as lack of a comfortable bed.
- Bed models with various characteristics in addition to being comfortable and fit for a person have been manufactured so far. Bed bases are known in the art for their comfort and capacity for storing goods.
- In the state of the art the body of a bed base is designed to have a single lid in the upper part and a horizontal storage box in the lower part with sides and bottom closed. Said lid is fastened to lower main body with two hinges on the head section according to person's sleeping position. And the bed base is opened by lifting the lid upwards with physical power from the foot section. The lid is supported with hydraulic arms for preventing accidents due to a sudden drop of the lid and can be fixed at a desired angle. This kind of beds has a high capacity of storing goods. Packing/unpacking the goods can be easily performed since the lid is fully opened.
- However the weight of the lid increases because of the mattress on the lid. During lifting and lowering of the lid the user may feel a pressure on the back.
- In
GB2286334 - In
US4095296 a system is described in which the bed gains different ergonomic shapes from a horizontal position due to a motor located in the bed mechanism. The head section and the foot section lift from the knee section with the power of the motor. The aim of said apparatus is not considered within the application and it also lacks mechanisms to comfort middle and top parts of a body. -
GB2224929 -
GB2334435 - The object of the present invention is to provide an ergonomic, movable, motor-driven bed base with/without a mattress having a storage box on the lower part.
- A bed base according to the invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings in which:
-
Figure 1 is an unfolded side cross-section view of the bed base according to the invention. -
Figure 2 is an unfolded side cross-section view of the bed base according to the invention without pocket springs. -
Figure 3 is a folded side cross-section view of the bed base according to the invention with pocket spring. -
Figure 4 is an unfolded top view of the bed base according to the invention with pocket spring. - Detailed Description of the Invention

- The bed base (1) mainly comprises a framework (2) constituting the frame of the bed base, at least four feet (15) located on the corners of the framework (2), said feet having adjustment mechanisms (3) and adjusting the height of the bed base, head and back sections (4 and 5) for the user to respectively place his/her head and back, a drive lever (9) located opposite on both sides of the bed base (1) in order to support the head section (4) and the back section (5), the other end of which is connected to the motor (11) and a supporting arm (10) of which one end is located opposite on both sides of the back section (5) and the other end is connected to the framework (2), a fixed part (6) on the framework (2), a connecting part (7) between the fixed part (6) and the foot section (8), a foot section (8) where the user place his/her legs and feet, a drive lever (9) located opposite on both sides of the bed base (1) in order to move the foot section (8), of which one end is connected to the motor and a supporting arm (10) of which one end is located on both sides of the foot section (8) and the other end is connected to the framework, and at least one electric motor (11) for enabling drive to which drive levers (9) are connected from the lower end.
- The bed base (1) according to the invention is setup on a framework (2) and six feet (15) under the framework (2). The framework is beveled to right/left and up/down while in horizontal position with respect to the framework (2) by means of the height adjustment mechanism (3) in the four corner feet (15).
- When the bed base (1) is desired to switch to an angled position from a horizontal position, the drive power required is supplied by means of double electric motors (11) attached to the lower part. The drive power applied by the electric motors (11) moves the head section (4), the back section (5), the connecting part (7) and the foot section (8) with the drive levers (9) from their horizontal position. This movement is carried out by directing of the metal supporting arms (10) of which one end is connected to the framework (2).
- The supporting arm (10) and the drive lever (9) allow packing of the mattress by sliding towards the head section and remove the pressure on the waist area of the lying person, the supporting arm and the drive lever being situated under the back section (5) and on both sides. Also the head section (4) can be adjusted at various heights by means of the head mechanism (18) located only for head section (4).
- The head section (4), back section (5), connecting part (7) and foot section (8) move with respect to the fixed part (6) in the middle which does not move. And the head section (4) and back section (5) move towards the foot section of the bed base (1) with respect to the fixed part (6) and the foot section (8) moves towards head section of the bed base (1) with respect to fixed part (6). The connecting part (7) between the fixed part (6) and the foot section (8) increases the ergonomics. The foot section (7) having a lid to be opened makes it possible to store goods therein.
- Rotation and synchronization between the head section (4) and the back section (5) and among the fixed part (6), the connecting part (7) and the foot section (8) are performed by means of hinges (16) mounted on the lower plates (12).
- Pocket spring (12) system used in the mattress allows using only top mattress on the product. The durability is improved with the plates (13) made of wood, metal or the like materials placed under the pocket spring system (12). The shoulder space (17) improves the comfort during lying down. Furthermore technology integrates with visual quality by means of upholstery (14) of various colors and materials which are fixed to the plates (13) and covered onto the pocket spring system (12).
- Within this main concept it is possible to develop various embodiments for the inventive bed base (1), and the invention cannot be limited to the examples described herein and is actually as in the following claims.
- The main principles of the invention are described herein. Within the framework of said main principles it is possible to develop various embodiments. And the invention is actually as in the claims.
