Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an assembly of an element defining a lying or support surface, such as a foam layer forming a core of a mattress, and a device associated with the element for adapting the form of the lying or support surface in waves, wherein the device comprises at least one selectively expandable and/or compressible body.
  • a lying surface is defined on a mattress. It is usually the intention that the support surface is substantially level or two-dimensional.
  • a pillow is provided only for the head of a user, although no modification at all is hereby made to the form of the mattress.
  • a substantially completely flat support surface, as defined by a mattress, is however in many cases undesirable or can have adverse or even harmful effects.
  • a flat lying or support surface can exacerbate symptoms or in any case result in irritation, bedsores as a result of prolonged pressure load on limited numbers of points on a body of a user, and so on.
  • An assembly of the above defined type with a device for adapting the lying or support surface, precisely for the purpose of providing a more adequate solution herefor, is for instance known from WO 88.01158 .
  • This known assembly comprises inflatable plastic bags which are positioned on a mattress, with a thin, pliable covering or lining layer thereover.
  • This known configuration has a number of drawbacks.
  • these bags are, or at least must be made, rigid and hard in order to provide a desired measure of support. Due to the bags being insufficiently inflated a user will otherwise simply subside onto the lying or support surface defined by the conventional mattress below the bags. The hardness of the inflatable bags is not damped or made less noticeable by the thin, pliable cover layer. It will thus be apparent that, when a person sits or lies thereon, the hardness of these inflatable bags is high and the comfort low during use thereof. In addition, when a user lies on a thus known mattress and wishes to get off the bed, he or she has to clamber over a considerable obstacle formed by the hard inflated bags in order to get out of bed. These hard inflated bags do not yield, precisely because they are highly inflated in order to provide some measure of support, although at the same time an obstruction is thus created to getting off the mattress in an acceptable manner.
  • the present invention has for its object to enable realization of a pro-active adaptation of a support surface, in particular in combination with a mattress, which is usually flat.
  • the objects of the present invention are achieved by means of an assembly as defined in the main claim of the appended set of claims.
  • the hinge configuration ensures that the mattress core in particular and the mattress in general adjusts itself to the wave shape defined with the device or the body, so that a greater thickness of the mattress core of the mattress is provided in order to be able to continue to provide a desirable measure of comfort, and moreover also a sufficient moisture regulation, despite the presence of the added device.
  • This configuration can moreover provide a solution to snoring by users. If they lie with their back against a folded-up edge of the mattress when falling asleep, there is a limited chance of them coming to lie on their back, a position which is known to be conducive to snoring.
  • the device can be expanded and compressed cyclically or at intervals.
  • the recumbent position of a person on a thus designed mattress with a device according to the invention is thus regularly varied in forced manner, which can provide a very favourable solution to bedsores.
  • devices are arranged along mutually opposite edges of the element, a gentler or quicker reciprocal rocking movement can even be realized in order to counter even further the danger of bedsores.
  • a greater part of the thickness of the core layer of the mattress lies over or on the device with the expandable body which may take the form of an inflatable device.
  • the operation of the assembly is not lost due to a (too) low pressure in the inflatable device, and the intended wave shape can also be formed at a pressure lower than a maximum pressure, this in contrast to the known configurations.
  • users can also get off the mattress more easily since more yield occurs above the device, which may be inflated to a greater or lesser extent, when the user exerts a pressure thereon locally, for instance with his/her backside or upper legs.
  • the pivotable configuration of the element comprises at least one incision extending upward from the body of the device to a position below the lying or support surface, and the element is adaptable locally at the body to the form defined by the body, wherein the incision extends sideways parallel to the lying or support surface forming a leg extending beneath the body.
  • the mattress core for instance of foam material, is provided with incisions in said manner.
  • a body of substantially wedge-shaped cross-section in a position of use it is possible to realize an adaptation of a support surface with a suitable choice of the wedge shape when the device is placed on or under the support surface. It is thus possible to place the wedge-shaped body under a mattress, or also on a mattress, but then preferably with a suitable means for preventing displacement relative to the mattress, such as a velcro fastening, wherein such a fixation could also be applied in the case of positioning in the mattress as according to the present invention.
  • the wedge-shaped body is, according to the present invention, incorporated in the mattress.
  • Fig. 1 shows a view of a general working principle of device 1, adaptable to be according to the present invention when embedded in the mattress 2 as discussed below in relation to figures 2 and 3 .
  • This device is applied in combination with a mattress 2.
  • Device 1 comprises a body 3 which is of triangular cross-section (in the direction transversely of arrow E) and which in this example is wedge-shaped and per se hollow.
  • Body 3 is inflatable, for which purpose a pump 4 can be selectively activated.
  • Pump 4 is connected to hollow wedge-shaped body 3 via a conduit 5.
  • Pump 4 can be selectively activated by means of a microcomputer 6 as an example of a control, which is equipped with an antenna 7.
  • Antenna 7 is connected wirelessly to hand-held operating means 8, which is available to a user for selective activation of pump 4.
  • a pressure gauge 9 can be applied for measuring the pressure in the interior of the hollow wedge-shaped body 3 in order to activate pump 4 automatically and selectively on the basis of measurement signals and using microcomputer 6 for the purpose of increasing the pressure in the interior of the hollow wedge-shaped body 3.
  • a shut-off valve, tap or outlet valve 11 is arranged in another conduit 10.
  • Outlet valve 11 can also be actuated selectively by microcomputer 6.
  • Outlet valve 11 is intended for the purpose of decreasing the pressure in the interior of the hollow wedge-shaped body 3.
  • Outlet valve 11 can also be arranged in conduit 5 between pump 4 and the hollow wedge-shaped body 3.
  • the hollow wedge-shaped body 3 can be arranged, in this example, under mattress 2 in the direction of arrow A, preferably on a base 12. The hollow wedge-shaped body 3 then comes to lie between base 12 and mattress 2.
  • a hollow wedge-shaped body 3 can be placed on or under mattress 2, as indicated with arrows B, C and D.
  • hollow wedge-shaped bodies 3 are arranged at the long sides of the mattress indicated with arrows A and C. This is the situation as shown in fig. 2 .
  • a spring base 14 On opposite sides of mattress 2 two hollow wedge-shaped bodies 3 are placed on the upper surface of the frame 13 with spring base 14.
  • microcomputer 6 is omitted, although pump 4 is here preferably also under the control of microcomputer 6.
  • Pump 4 may be connected via a valve 16 to each of two hollow wedge-shaped bodies 3 on either side of mattress 2.
  • the valve 16 can be used in combination with a control, embodied as microcomputer 6 or in other manner, in order to select to which of the two hollow wedge-shaped bodies 3 pump 4 must be connected. It is of course also possible that valve member 16 provides the option of connecting pump 4 to each of the two wedge-shaped hollow bodies 3.
  • Fig. 1 shows an example, in which the shown wedge-shaped body is divided into compartments by means of a membrane or partition 17.
  • Each of the compartments can be connected to the pump via a valve 18 in similar manner as bodies 3 in fig. 2 in order to enable adjustment of the firmness, support or hardness in each of the thus separated compartments, both initially and after a period of time during use.
  • Fig. 2 shows an assembly 18 not according to the invention of a mattress 2 and a device 3, 3 with a hinge configuration.
  • the device comprises a wedge-shaped body 3 and a second wedge-shaped body 3 along opposite edges of mattress 2.
  • a carrier such as a box-spring 17.
  • box-spring 17 is replaced by a slat frame 20.
  • Mattress 2 comprises incisions 19 so that it bends more easily so as to take on the form defined by wedge-shaped body 3 and second wedge-shaped body 3, and to thus form the hinge configuration.
  • Laterally situated wave parts 24 of mattress 2 on the outer sides of incisions 19 can be fixedly connected to mattress 2, for instance by means of stitching, or can be connected thereto by means of for instance a velcro connection (not shown).
  • mattress 2 is a mattress with a foam core
  • fig. 3 shows a spring mattress. It will be apparent that the intended gap 21 can also be formed with incisions 19 in the case of a spring mattress.
  • recesses 29 are provided in top surface 28 in order to facilitate bending of the thus formed hinge configuration.
  • Fig. 3 further shows how a gap 21 adapting mattress 2 to the shape of device 3, 3 results when device 3, 3 is arranged in the direction of arrow A beneath mattress 2 with incisions 19.
  • the outward situated wave part 24 of mattress 2 can simply be lifted in the direction of arrow F so as to provide or make space for body 3.
  • the gap or incisions 19 are arranged substantially over the greater part of the thickness of mattress 2, and further extend over the whole thickness.
  • Fig. 4 shows an embodiment of the present invention the body being embedded in foam core 2 of mattress 2 beneath wave part 24.
  • Extending beneath the device or body 3 is a leg 41 of the material of mattress core 2, with a locking protrusion 42 at the free outer end, which falls into a receiving recess 43 in the wave part of core 2 of mattress 2 in the unexpanded state of the device or body 3.
  • Fig. 5 shows an embodiment of the present invention, wherein the corner edge 38 of wave part 24 is chamfered in order to bring about a more gradual progression of the outer side of the assembly according to the invention, where a relatively sharp corner would otherwise occur.
  • a simplified embodiment of the folding means is further incorporated in the view of the embodiment in fig. 5 .
  • a tensioning cable is here not arranged through the interior of the device, but simply from the outer top corner of device 3 to corner 35 on wave part 24 between the device and the wave part.
  • the upward oriented point 37 of body 3 is arranged with a fastening on the adjacent point of wave part 24 in order to improve the operation of the folding means still further.
  • the tensioning cable can be elastic and then be fastened to a bottom point of a stationary part of mattress 2 (or at least the mattress core of mattress 2).
  • an inelastic or elastic cable also achieves that sides of the body 3 do not bulge excessively.
  • a covering can be arranged round at least wedge-shaped body 3.
  • a covering can take the form of a sleeve which can be detachable.
  • a sleeve can in particular be arranged fixedly on device 3 and be removable, for instance be formed from a smooth or at least sealing plastic, or be releasable to enable separate cleaning thereof, for instance in a washing line or laundry of a hospital.
  • Bodies 3 do not have to be hollow, let alone inflatable, but can be solid and filled with a gel or other substance, or be formed from foam or the like.
  • the device can also be applied in a manner other than solely in combination with a mattress, for instance in combination with a seat, for instance of a chair, etc.
