Abstract

1,140,767. Mattresses &c. J. D. WEINSTEIN and B. A. DAVIDSON. 6 Sept., 1966 [17 Sept., 1965], No. 39866/66 Heading A4M. A mattress or seat is formed in its upper surface with an anatomically shaped cavity which receives a bag partly filled with liquid to support the user. As shown, a mattress comprises a foamed rubber or plastics base 12 with a cavity housing a water bag comprising upper and lower flexible plastics sheets 28, 26 sealed together at their periphery. An open corner (34, Fig. 3) of the bag may be sealed or closed by a releasable clamp (40) after filling. The lower sheet 26 may be secured to the peripheral top surface 20 of the base 12. The water may include an additive e.g. copper sulphate or sodium chloride. A blanket 46 thermally insulates the patient from the bag. The lower sheet 26 could be replaced by a waterproof coating or lining in the cavity. In an alternative mattress (Fig. 14), the base (100) comprises a stiff plastics moulding with a foam rubber shoulder (103). In alternative embodiments (Figs. 8-13), a seat comprises a base and back-rest of foamed material, the base being formed with a cavity to accommodate a bag containing liquid having a specific gravity of approximately 3.0. A filling tube (81, Fig. 10) may extend through the base (63) to the bag.
