Definitions

  • the invention relates to a support, especially for use in nursing and hospital.
  • Pads are used for comfortable sitting and / or lying of people and can be placed, for example, on conventional chairs or mattresses to improve their seating and / or lying properties. In the nursing and hospital sector, such requirements must meet additional requirements. In addition to comfortable seating and / or lying properties such requirements must be robust and easy to clean. Usually, pads have a substantially rectangular outer contour. However, there is an increasing need for editions that have a different outer contour.
  • a disadvantage of this known ventilation mattress that the attachment of the edge strip is often not optimal and the sitting or lying comfort is not satisfactory.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a simple and comfortable edition, which has a non-rectangular outer contour.
  • a support with an arbitrary, non-rectangular outer contour can be produced in a simple manner by foaming a foam body onto an elastic spacer textile.
  • the spacer textile is formed for example as a spacer fabric or spacer knit and is particularly easy to produce with a rectangular outer contour due to its manufacturing process.
  • the foam body can be prepared in a simple manner in any shape or with any outer contour. Due to its structure, the spacer textile offers a high level of seating and / or lying comfort ready, whereas with the foam body the desired outer contour is achieved.
  • the foam body surrounds the spacer fabric in the areas to be formed, preferably completely.
  • the spacer textile is completely enveloped by a separating layer.
  • the separating layer preferably comprises a film and / or a membrane. The separating layer does not impair the springing and damping properties of the spacer textile, so that an arbitrarily contoured overlay with a high degree of seating and / or lying comfort is achieved in a simple manner.
  • the foam body and the spacer textile are preferably air- and liquid-permeable, so that the pad has a high breathability and at the same time dissipates liquids such as sweat, blood and / or urine from a user-facing surface into the interior of the pad.
  • the foam body and the spacer fabric are preferably completely enveloped by an outer shell.
  • the outer shell is removable in particular for cleaning purposes of the foam body and has for this purpose For example, a zipper disposed between an outer shell bottom and an outer shell top.
  • the support according to the invention can serve to improve the seat and / or reclining properties of existing seat cushions and / or mattresses by additionally arranging the support on them.
  • Such retrofitting of existing seat cushions and / or mattresses is comparatively inexpensive compared to a complete new seat cushion or a completely new mattress, which is of great importance in particular in the nursing and hospital sector.
  • the support preferably has a circulation height of 10 mm to 200 mm, in particular from 20 mm to 150 mm. With increasing circulation of seat and / or lying comfort of the support increases, as a result, a better pressure distribution and longer suspension travel, especially at a point load, can be achieved.
  • the pad according to the invention improves the sitting and / or lying comfort.
  • a defined amount of foam on foaming of the foam body in the spacer textile occur, whereby a connection between the foam body and the spacer fabric is achieved without the compression hardness of the spacer fabric increases in an undesirable manner. Due to the connection, stresses on the overlay are better distributed in this, which leads to a higher seating and / or lying comfort.
  • the passage openings are arranged on several sides of the rectangular spacer textile, in particular on all sides.
  • the separating layer may comprise, for example, a film or a membrane which has any, in particular strip or punctiform perforation.
  • a support according to claim 2 improves the sitting and / or lying comfort, since the connection between the foam body or the spacer fabric and the release layer is improved. Movements between the foam body and the spacer textile are thus better transferred and distributed loads better.
  • a support according to claim 3 has an improved seating and / or lying comfort, as movements between the foam body and the spacer fabric are transmitted directly over the release layer and loads are better distributed. In particular, in connection with the passage openings a high seating and / or lying comfort is achieved.
  • a support according to claim 4 has an optimum connection between the foam body and the spacer fabric, without resulting in a significant increase in compression hardness.
  • a support according to claim 5 has a high breathability. If the membrane is additionally liquid-permeable, liquids are effectively removed from a user-facing surface into the interior of the spacer fabric.
  • a support according to claim 6 is simple and inexpensive to produce. Rectangular spacer textiles are compared to non-rectangular spacer textiles simple and inexpensive, so that they are particularly suitable for the production of arbitrarily contoured pads.
  • a support according to claim 7 is robust and comfortable.
  • a support according to claim 8 has high elasticity and dimensional stability due to the IXI shape of the plurality of spacer thread groups. Pressure loads can be absorbed elastically by the spacer threads, which return to the original shape after the elimination of the pressure load. Due to the high dimensional stability of the spacer knitted fabric can be formed with a height of 2 to 100 mm, in particular from 5 to 80 mm, in particular from 15 to 60 mm and in particular from 20 to 50 mm without this permanently deformed due to the pressure loads.
  • An overlay according to claim 9 has high breathability and delivers liquids from a user facing surface to the interior of the overlay.
  • An overlay according to claim 10 prevents liquid from escaping from the outer shell so that articles placed under the overlay, such as a chair or mattress, are not contaminated.
  • a support according to claim 11 has a high level of comfort, since on the one hand air can circulate through the outer shell upper part and on the other hand liquid can be discharged from the surface facing the user into the interior of the support. In addition, this liquid can not escape through the paragraphhüllenunterteil so that contamination of objects arranged underneath are avoided.
  • a support according to claim 12 allows the absorption of a large amount of liquid without this exiting laterally.
  • the outer shell lower part preferably has liquid impermeable lateral cheeks that extend to the outer shell top.
  • a support according to claim 13 improves the sitting and / or lying comfort.
  • the additional elasticity of the lower layer is particularly advantageous for a pressure-relieving soft storage in conjunction with decubitus prophylaxis and / or therapy.
  • the lower layer is formed for example as a molded body made of foam.
  • the lower layer and the upper layer are arranged in particular shear-resistant one above the other, which is achieved for example by an anti-slip coating and / or a partial padding of the upper layer facing side of the lower layer.
  • An overlay according to claim 14 is robust and can be recycled frequently.
  • the outer shell is removable from the backsheet and the topsheet.
  • the outer shell for example, a zipper, which is arranged between the outer shell bottom and the outer shell shell.
  • the liquid-impermeable backsheet which is subject to fouling conditions due to the liquid collecting in the area of the outer shell lower part, only has to be cleaned on the outside, which makes easy reprocessing possible.
  • the liquid impermeability is achieved by a liquid-impermeable molded body shell, such as a PU shell.
  • the overlay 1 has a spacer textile 2 in the form of a spacer knit, which extends substantially in an x-direction and a z-direction and is rectangular in an xz-plane defined by these directions, that is to say has a rectangular spacer textile outer contour A.
  • the spacer textile 2 is referred to below as spacer fabric.
  • the spacer fabric 2 is completely surrounded by a release layer 3.
  • the separating layer 3 essentially separates the spacer fabric 2 from a foam body 4, which completely surrounds the spacer fabric 2 and is substantially circular in the xz plane, ie has a non-rectangular foam body outer contour S.
  • the foam body 4 is completely surrounded by an outer shell 5.
  • the spacer fabric 2 has two mutually substantially parallel cover layers 6, which are interconnected by spacer threads 7.
  • the spacer threads 7 form in a yz plane extending spacer thread groups 8, which have an IXI shape. This is in Fig. 2 shown.
  • the IXI-shape is formed by two perpendicular to the cover layers 6 extending spacer threads 7 and two obliquely, for example, at an angle of 45 ° extending and intersecting spacer threads 7.
  • the spacer fabric 2 has a height H A in the range of 2 to 100 mm, in particular from 5 to 80 mm, in particular from 15 to 60 mm and in particular from 20 to 50 mm.
  • the threads of the cover layers 6 and / or the spacer threads 7 may be formed as monofilaments and / or multifilaments and consist for example of polyester.
  • the spacer fabric 2 is permeable to air and liquid. With regard to the structure and the material of the spacer fabric 2 is on the DE 100 26 405 B4 directed.
  • the separating layer 3 has a membrane 9, which is permeable to air and liquid, but impermeable to the foam of the foam body 4 and accordingly separates the foam body 4 from the spacer fabric 2.
  • the separating layer 3 has a first adhesion promoter 10 on a spacer fabric side facing the spacer fabric 2 and a second adhesion promoter 11 on a foam body side facing the foam body 4.
  • the affine adhesion promoters 10, 11 are in Fig. 2 merely hinted.
  • the tear layer 3 on all sides a plurality of through holes 12, through which the foam body 4 extends into the spacer fabric 2 in a desired manner.
  • the foam body 4 forms through the passage openings 12 connecting elements 13, which connect to a part of the spacer fabric 2, so with the cover layers 6 and / or the spacer threads 7 and surrounding them. In this way, a permanent connection between the foam body 4 and the spacer fabric 2 is achieved.
  • the foam body 4, the membrane 9 and the spacer knitted fabric 2 are permeable to air and liquid, so that they have a high breathability and liquids on the surface of the foam body 4 can be discharged into the interior.
  • the outer shell 5 has on an underside facing away from a user an outer shell bottom part 14 and on an upper side facing the user an outer shell upper part 15, which are connected to one another by means of a zipper 16.
  • the outer shell lower part 14 is designed to avoid a lateral leakage of liquid as a liquid-impermeable trough.
  • the outer shell bottom part 14 consists for example of polyurethane or polyester with an outer PU coating.
  • the outer shell bottom 14 preferably has liquid impervious side troughs that extend to the level of the zipper 16.
  • the outer shell upper part 15 forming a seat surface is designed to be air and liquid permeable.
  • the outer shell upper part 15 is preferably an elastic knitted fabric and / or knit which, depending on the position of the zipper 16, is formed two-dimensionally or three-dimensionally.
  • the production of the overlay 1 takes place by foaming the foam body 4 to the spacer knit 2.
  • foaming occurs foam in a controlled manner through the through holes 12 of the release layer 3, this forms the fasteners 13 during curing.
  • foaming starting from a spacer knitted fabric 2 having a rectangular outer contour A, any desired editions 1 can be produced. Due to the fact that the foam only selectively enters the spacer fabric 2 in the area of the through openings 12, an undesirable increase in the compression hardness of the spacer fabric 2 is avoided.
  • the outer shell top 15 provides a seating surface, for example for a patient in a hospital.
  • Liquids located on the outer shell upper part 15 pass through it into the interior of the outer shell 5 and from there through the foam body 4 into the interior of the spacer fabric 2.
  • the liquid emerging from the spacer fabric 2 collects in the outer shell lower part 14, this being replaced by the trough-shaped and liquid-impermeable formation prevents leakage of the liquid. Due to the air permeability of the outer shell upper part 15, the foam body 4 and the spacer fabric 2, a high breathability of the support 1 is ensured.
  • the zipper 16 is opened and the foam body 4 removed with the spacer fabric 2.
  • the foam body 4 and the spacer fabric 2 can then be cleaned separately from the outer shell 5. If the contamination of the foam body 4 with the spacer fabric 2 or the outer shell 5 is too strong or has occurred due to frequent reprocessing excessive wear, the foam body 4 with the spacer fabric 2 or the outer shell 5 can be renewed.
  • the support 1 a is constructed multi-layered.
  • the foam body 4 together with the spacer fabric 2 forms a top layer 17, which is arranged in a y-direction on an elastic bottom layer 18.
  • the upper layer 17 and the lower layer 18 are arranged shear-resistant in the x- and z-directions and completely enveloped together by the outer shell 5a.
  • the lower layer 18 is formed liquid-impermeable. For this purpose, this has a corresponding to the foam body outer contour S formed molding 19 made of foam, which is completely enveloped by a liquid-impermeable molding shell 20.
  • the molded body shell 20 is removable from the molded body 19.
  • the shaped-body casing 20 has a zipper 21.
