Definitions

  • the invention relates to a mattress spring, in particular for use in foam or latex mattresses, from a spring body made of plastic with upper and lower support surfaces and interposed spring elements.
  • a well-known, designed as a mattress spring single spring element which in the DE 20 2006 018 923 U1 Publ is, has a cylindrical envelope surface and transverse to its vertical axis a longitudinal profile-like structure of its part spring elements.
  • a middle part spring element is equipped with laterally open mouth-shaped profile elements, which provide the single spring element excellent spring properties.
  • Female connector, DE 196 07 127 C1 which is to serve as a replacement for wooden spring strips of bed slatted frames, has an oval tubular body made of flexible plastic with a large number of transverse cuts, but whose spring properties are not those of the known single spring element according to the DE 20 2006 018 923 U1 to reach.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a mattress spring which is inexpensive to produce and which enables a more economical production mattresses equipped with it and ensures improved air exchange and thereby optimized moisture removal. At the same time, the advantageous spring properties of the single spring element should be preserved.
  • Such an extruded profile has the advantage that it does not have to be secured in a horizontal arrangement against falling over, as required in the prior art and allows a cost-effective production of the mattress spring with a relative to the material use relatively large bearing surface and large, foam material replacing volume , so that the use of materials is greatly optimized. Furthermore, such a hollow extruded profile allows a very deep lowering under heavy vertical load, whereby the spring properties can be adjusted progressively advantageous due to the design form.
  • the mattress spring has for this purpose from the side concave the lateral edges of the upper and lower support surfaces inwardly directed lateral surface portions, the ends of which are formed on a turn outwardly extending, in cross section V-shaped shell portion, so that on both sides of a cross-sectional inwardly directed maulförmiges profile element is generated.
  • a mouth opening is widened, whereby a mutual contact of the lateral surface sections is avoided and a with increasing deformation greatly decreasing deformation is realized without this would be bounded by a "go to block" of the mattress spring abruptly.
  • the outer shell has a substantially identical wall thickness over its circumference, whereby it can be achieved that the mechanical load of the mattress spring in all areas is about the same size and the material used optimally utilized and nowhere overloaded. As a result, the durability of the mattress spring is improved.
  • the outer shell forms a closed polyline in cross-section, which, for example, when the outer shell of the mattress spring without lateral recesses or slots equipped, but closed, the mattress springs for the production of a mattress can be foamed from the outside, without their inner free travel or lose their ventilation function.
  • the amount of foam material to be used and also the weight of the finished product can be significantly reduced, which has a positive effect on the handling of a mattress thus produced and also on the total cost.
  • the outer shell of a mattress spring can also be provided with lateral recesses, which allows either their complete lathering in a mattress, so that lighter foam can be used with a lower load capacity, or after inserting the mattress spring in finished cut areas of a Foam mattress later leads to a much improved air exchange in the mattress.
  • a plurality of mattress springs can be arranged side by side transversely and / or longitudinally to the longitudinal direction of a mattress, preferably having at their front profile openings receiving devices or locking devices for mutual insertion or insertion of adjacent mattress springs.
  • a mattress spring may be equipped in its free interior with a hardness adjustment that limits the free travel either stiff or elastic, with an adjustment can be led out laterally from a constructed with the corresponding mattress spring mattress.
  • a further advantage is the possibility of arranging a lower bracket on the inventive mattress spring, so that it can also be used as a spring base of a sitting or lying furniture.
  • the mattress spring 1 consists of a hollow extruded profile made of plastic with an outer shell 4 with over its circumference substantially identical wall thickness, which forms a closedcomparativelynzug in cross section.
  • An embodiment, as in Fig. 1 is shown, is provided with side recesses 5 in order to achieve material and weight savings, to influence the spring characteristics and to improve the ventilation of a mattress with the spring 1 thus constructed mattress.
  • the mattress spring 1 has upper and lower bearing surfaces, which is centrally provided in the profile longitudinal direction with a slightly concave indentation 9 to minimize the effective bearing surfaces or to improve the ventilation of a mattress, whereby each two parallel, slightly convex Support surfaces 2, 3 are generated. From the free to the outer sides in the direction of the opposite support surfaces 3; 2 curved trained support surfaces 2, 3, the mattress spring 1 has concave side of the edges of the upper support surface 2 and the lower support surface 3 inwardly directed lateral surface portions, the ends of which in turn formed outwardly extending V-shaped shell portion 6, so that on both sides of a cross-sectional inwardly directed maulförmiges profile element 7 is generated.
