DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

The present invention relates to a health futon that generates far infrared rays.

2. Description of the Related Art As a health futon that generates far-infrared rays, for example, a cotton pad is accommodated in a mattress, and the solid cotton generates far-infrared rays by receiving human body heat. There is. The health futon has a pad and a cover surrounding the pad. In this health futon, conventionally, solid cotton for generating far-infrared rays is stored in a pad. That is, the pad has a surface material and a lining whose peripheral edges are joined to each other, and solid cotton housed between the surface material and the lining.

[0002]

In this conventional example, the cover and the outer material of the pad are interposed between the cotton and the human body. Only when the human body heat penetrates through the cover and the outer material of the pad reaches the solid cotton. Therefore, the heat applied to the solid cotton is greatly reduced, and as a result, the amount of generation of far infrared rays is suppressed. Similarly, far infrared rays generated from the cotton are transmitted through the surface material of the pad and the cover, and then radiated to the human body. As described above, in addition to reducing the amount of generation of far infrared rays, the amount of the far infrared rays reaching the human body is also low. In this case, it is inevitable that the therapeutic effect of the far infrared rays is reduced.

[0003] The present invention has been made in order to solve such problems of the conventional example. An object of the present invention is to provide a health futon with improved treatment performance by far infrared rays.

[0004]

In order to achieve this object, according to the present invention, a bag-like cover enclosing a pad is provided with a solid cotton that generates far-infrared rays due to human body heat on a surface on which a person sleeps. To be contained and divided into multiple pieces of fabric and cotton
Sewn together . As described above, according to the present invention, since the human body heat reaches the solid cotton only through the cover, the amount of far infrared rays generated increases. Further, since the generated far infrared rays are irradiated to the human body only through the cover, attenuation of the far infrared rays can be suppressed. Further, the bias of the solid cotton is prevented.

[0005]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 show an embodiment of a health futon 1 (hereinafter sometimes abbreviated as a futon 1) of the present invention. This health futon 1 is a mattress. This futon 1 has the pad 3 shown in FIG. 7 and the cover 4 shown in FIG.

Here, the cover 4 contains solid cotton 22 between the fabrics on the side on which a person sleeps (upper surface). The solid cotton 22 is made of ceramic fibers that generate far-infrared rays by human body heat. In this embodiment, the solid cotton 2
The fabric on the upper surface of the two-piece cover 4 is made by quilting as follows (see FIGS. 1 to 3). As shown in FIG. 3, the cover 4 has a double-layered fabric at least on the upper surface, and is capable of accommodating the solid cotton 22. In this embodiment, the cover 4 is sewn so as to partition the cloth into a plurality of pieces after the solid cotton 22 is stored on the upper surface. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, the sections are sewn in parallel lines, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the sections may be sewn in a grid or any other shape. Thus, the cover 4 containing the solid cotton 22
By using quilting, the unevenness of the solid cotton 22 is prevented.

In this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the pad 3 is composed of a front material 5 and a back material 6 whose peripheral edges are joined to each other, and a mat-like material inserted between the front material 5 and the back material 6. And a floor plate 2 inserted between the outer material 5 and the cushion 7. In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 7, the outer material 5 and the lining 6 are formed from polyurethane, for example, so as to have a number of convex portions 8. The convex portion 8 is for achieving a therapeutic effect depending on the weight of the body of the person lying on the futon. As shown in FIG. 4, the cushion 7 includes a thick cotton 9 formed in a thick plate shape, and a raised pile 10 covering and covering the entire surface of the solid cotton 9. The cushion 7 has a treatment function using far infrared rays in addition to the original cushion effect. That is, the solid cotton 9 incorporated in the cushion 7 is made of ceramic fibers that generate far-infrared rays by human body heat. In the present embodiment, the cushion 7 further has a function of attaching and detaching the electric floor plate 2.
That is, the electric floor plate 2 is detachable from the raised pile 10 of the cushion 7 by fixing the flexible tape 11 to the back surface (see FIG. 5).

[0008] The electric floor plate 2 is provided so as to generate a potential (no current flows) by being supplied with electricity and to exhibit a therapeutic effect. The electric floor board of the present embodiment has 60
A potential of 0 V is created. The power floor cord 2 is connected to a power supply cord 12. The cover 4 shown in FIG. 1 and the pad 3 shown in FIG.
Openings 5 and 14 are provided so that the electric floor board 2 can be inserted. The attachment ports 15 and 14 are provided with fasteners 17 and 16 and can be freely opened and closed. The electric floor board 2 is movable between the outer material 5 of the pad 3 and the cushion 7 (see FIGS. 6 and 7). The electric floor board 2 is moved so as to be located below a desired part of a human body lying on the futon 1.

[0009] In the health futon 1 constructed as described above, treatment with far infrared rays is performed as follows. In actual use, the health futon 1 is often laid with a mat (not shown) on the cover 4. Cover 4
Since the solid cotton 22 is accommodated on the upper surface of the device, the body heat of a person reaches the solid cotton 22 only through the cover 4 (or the cover 4 and the laying cloth) to generate far-infrared rays. The generated far-infrared rays are radiated to the human body only through the cover 4 (or the cover 4 and the mat). According to this, compared to the case where heat and far infrared rays are exchanged between a person and solid cotton through the cover and the outer material of the pad, the amount of far infrared rays generated is larger and far infrared rays reach the person. The amount is also large.
Therefore, the treatment effect by far infrared rays is improved as compared with the conventional example. At the same time, the far-infrared treatment is also performed by the solid cotton 9 in the pad 3.

[0010]

As described above, according to the present invention, the following effects can be obtained. (1) According to the first aspect of the present invention, heat and far-infrared rays are exchanged between the person and the solid cotton through the cover. That is, compared to the case of exchanging heat and far-infrared rays through the cover and the pad as in the conventional example, the amount of far-infrared rays generated and the amount of far-infrared rays reaching a person can be increased. Therefore, the therapeutic effect by far infrared rays can be improved.

(2) According to the second aspect of the present invention, since the cover containing the solid cotton is formed as a quilt, the unevenness of the solid cotton can be prevented. Therefore, the human body can always be irradiated with far-infrared rays even after a long period of time.
