Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a mattress according to the preamble of independent claim 1.
  • Such mattresses may find application in the private sector, for example.
  • Very interesting is the application in the field of hospital and nursing beds. Especially patients who are bedridden for a long time are prone to decubitus, also known as "bedsores".
  • decubitus ulcer can be significantly reduced if the bedridden person is accommodated, for example, on a heated water bed.
  • water beds are expensive to buy and have a high weight due to the required amount of water, which makes them, especially in the field of hospitals and nursing homes, very impractical.
  • the DE 10 2004 057 590 A1 therefore, describes a mattress overlay which has a water fillable cavity.
  • This provides a low cost and relatively easy alternative to conventional waterbeds.
  • the disadvantage here is that it is not possible to lift the head or foot of the bed, otherwise from there, the water would drain directly into the lower body area. Especially in bedridden patients, however, it is important to be able to adapt the head and foot area to the needs of the patient.
  • the DE 20 2006 005 772 describes a mattress with transverse water chambers.
  • a disadvantage of this arrangement is that just in the trunk area, where the risk of decubitus is particularly high and where the center of gravity of the body, especially in a sedentary man is arranged, the water is not optimally displaced in the water chambers and the body is not so Well adapted, so that the risk of pressure ulcers is still present.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to provide a mattress, which prevents by comparable properties to a conventional water mattress, a decubitus, is easily heated and their head and / or foot can be lifted.
  • This object is achieved by the features of the characterizing part of claim 1, which have the following special significance.
  • the mattress according to the invention has a large receptacle in the body region, in which a large filling element, namely a hull filling element, can be introduced.
  • a large filling element namely a hull filling element
  • the head and / or foot area one or more smaller images are provided for this, in which smaller filling elements can be introduced.
  • the head or the foot area can be tilted or raised to adjust the mattress of the person on it accordingly.
  • the fluid remains in the filling elements.
  • a larger filling element is provided, which on the one hand better adapts to the body shape and on the other hand is also very easy to heat.
  • the fluid used is preferably water. This is almost everywhere available inexpensively and has already proven in conventional waterbeds due to its properties.
  • the mattress can be used either on a conventional mattress of a bed, such as a bed or a couch, or be used as a self-contained mattress on the frame of a bed, for example, on a slatted base. Depending on how the mattress is designed exactly, it is very light despite the filled water, so that it can be found on the frame of a conventional bedding or on its mattress use.
  • Fig. 1 shows a preferred embodiment of the mattress 10.
  • This has a base body 11, which in turn is divided into a head portion 12, a trunk portion 13 and a foot portion 14.
  • a plurality of receptacles 20 are provided, which are designed here as smaller receptacles 22.
  • the filling elements can be introduced.
  • the filling elements are filled with a fluid, in particular with water.
  • the body region 13 has a single large receptacle 21, in which a large filling element can be introduced.
  • a heater 40 is provided here. Instead of the heater 40, however, cooling may also be provided. In Fig. 1 the heater 40 is extended over the entire surface of the base body 11.
  • the base body 11 could be heated, while the foot area 14 is cooled to relieve the varicose veins.
  • the heater 40 can operate electrically.
  • a cover 30 is provided above the base body 11. This increases the sleeping comfort for a person located on the mattress and at the same time also protects the filling elements located in the receptacles 21. It is particularly advantageous if the base body 11 and / or the cover 30 are made of a foam, in particular of a viscoelastic foam. This material has a low weight and is very comfortable for the person on the mattress as it also adapts well to the body.
  • the mattress 10 has a total height 15 of 0.5 cm to ⁇ 8 cm:
  • a height 15 of 3 cm has proven particularly useful.
  • a height 15 is sufficient to ensure good comfort and to prevent bedsores.
  • little fluid is needed so that the mattress 10 has a low overall weight and is readily usable on a conventional mattress or on the frame of a conventional bedding.
  • the production of such a mattress 10 is significantly cheaper than in mattresses with a higher height 15th
  • Fig. 2 shows a mattress 10 according to the invention in plan view.
  • the cover 30 has been removed.
  • a conventional waterbed heater 44 is here in the region of the located in the large receptacle 21 fuselage element 44 is arranged.
  • Fig. 3 shows an embodiment of a heater 40. This may extend in its extension over the entire surface of the base body 11 or only over parts thereof.
  • Temperierkanäle 41 are provided, in which a temperature control is located. This medium is cooled or heated at an external location and then fed to the temperature control channels 41 of the actual heater 40.
  • the heater 40 itself here consists of two films 42, which are superimposed and partially welded together 43 are to form the tempering 41.
  • the temperature control medium is removed via lines 45, the temperature control channels 41 to and from these. It is particularly advantageous if all lines 45 are transverse to one side of the heater 40.
