This invention relates to mattresses in general.
Among the objects of the present invention it is aimed to provide an improved mattress having a yieldable interior and quilted supporting surfaces.
These and other features, capabilities and advantages of the invention will appear from the subjoined detail description of one specific embodiment thereof illustrated in the accompanying drawing in which Figure 1 is a plan View partly broken away.
Fig. 2 is a fragmental section on the line 2-2 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a fragmental section on the line 3-3 f Fig. 2.
Fig 4 is a, fragmental elevation of an end of the mattress.
The mattress consists essentially of an inner envelope I provided with a plurality of transversely extending textile partitions 2 to form a plurality of compartments 3, which compartments 3 in turn are provided to receive a plurality of yieldable llers such as rolls of felt 4, andan outer envelope 5, the upper and lower layers 6 and' I, respectively of which form with the upper and lower layers 8 and 9 of the inner envelope I enclosures to receive comparatively.
thin fillers I0 and II of yieldable material composed of felt, cotton or the like. The outer envelope 5 also has side walls I2 composed of fabric or the like disposed adjacent to the side wall I3 of the inner envelope I.
In the interest of producing a quilted effect for the supporting surfaces of the mattress, thereby obtaining the many advantages of a quilted structure, namely of retaining the ller against accidental displacement and maintaining it uniformly distributed throughout the supporting surface, the outer layer 6, filler Il] and inner layer 8 are provided with a plurality of longitudinally extending rows I4 of stitches, and a second plurality of rows I5 of transversely extending stitches, the transversely extending rows I5 in the present instance alining substantially with the partitions 2. The transversely extending rows I5 of stitches connect the walls of said inner and outer envelopes and the intervening fillers I 0 and I I to one another, thereby anchoring the outer envelope and the fillers firmly to the fabric covering of the envelope I. Preferably, as shown, the transverse stitches are attached directly to the partitions 2, thereby forming denite depressions that cannot be displaced. The transversely extending rows I5 thus cooperate not only with the partitions 2, but with the rows I4 of stitches and llers III and 4 to provide a plurality of uniform quilted or cushioning bulges. These quilted or cushioning bulges cooperate readily to conform to the body being supported and yet anchor 'the fillers Ill against displacement; Furthermore, it is Vthus possible to use an inner rugged ticking or'fabric for the envelope I and an outer ornamental fabric of finer material composed of silk, artificial silk in the form of satin or the like or fabrics composed of other well known fibres. The layers 'l and 9 and llers II are secured to one another by similar transversely extending and longitudinally yextending rows of stitches. The walls I2 and I3, on the other hand, in the interest of strengthening these walls and also thereby securing the fillers 4 adjacent such walls from displacement arejsecured in place by stitches I6 spaced from one" another as more clearly shown in Fig. 4.
It is, of course, obvious that ordinarily the outer'envelope' `5 composed of the outer layers 6, l and walls I2 may all be composed of one and the same ornamental ner material, and that the inner envelope I' consisting of the inner layers 8, 9 land walls I3 would ordinarily be composed of the same rugged ticking or the like fabric.
Preferably as shown, the edges of the mattress have a U shaped tape stitched in place to the edges of the layers 6, 8, 1, 9 and walls I2 and I3, where they meet, see for instance the stitches II for the tapes I8.
The mattress is here shown provided with ten transversely extending pockets or compartments 3, but the number, of course, may vary without departing from the general spirit of the invention.
Preferably, the size of the pockets and size of llers 'also vary with the widest pockets at the middle, with the narrowest pockets at the ends of the mattress, and with the intermediately sized pockets between the end pockets and the middle pockets, substantially as shown in Patent cations may be made to the details of construcrespectively in alinement with the edges of the Y respective partitions and connecting the upper.v
walls of said inner and outer envelopes andy intervening filler to one another and other trans--` versely extending rows of stitches 4also respectively alined with the edges of the respective partitions connecting the lower walls of said in ner and outer envelopes and intervening fllerto one another, and longitudinally extending rows of stitches connecting theupper walls of said inner and outer envelopes and intervening filler to one another and other longitudinally extending rows of stitches connectingthe lower walls of said inner and outer envelopesr and VintervenY ing ller to one another to form quilted bulges.
2. In a mattress, the combination of an inner fabric envelope having an upper wall, a lower wall and side and end walls, transversely extending fabric partitions secured to the upper and lower walls to form*transverselyextending pockets, rolls of yieldable fillersd'isposed in said pockets and extending transversely of( the mattress, an outer-.fabric envelope having an upper wall, a lower wall andlside andend walls, aflat comparatively thin ller of yieldable material disposed between the upper walls of said inner and outer envelopes, a second flat comparatively thin filler of yieldable material disposed between the lower walls of said inner and outer envelopes, transversely extending rows o f stitches respectively in alinement with the edgesof the partitions and, connecting Athe upper walls of said inner and outer envelopes and intervening filler to o ne another and other transversely extending rows of stitches also respectively alined with the edges of the respective partitions connecting the lower walls of said inner and outer envelopes and intervening filler to one another, longitudinally extending rows of stitches connecting the upper walls of said inner and outer envelopes and intervening filler to one another and other longitudinally extending rows of stitches connecting the lower walls of said inner and outer envelopes and intervening ller to one another to form quilted bulges, and spaced apart stitches connecting said side and end Walls and the adjacent portions of said filler rolls to one another to form firm side and end walls for the mattress.
3. In a mattress, the combination of an inner envelopecomposed of a rugged ticking material having an upper wall, a lower wall and side and endwalls, transversely extending fabric partitions secured to the upper and lower walls to form transversely extending pockets, rolls of felt disposed in said pockets and extending transversely of the mattress, an outer envelope composed of an ornamental fabric having an upper wall, alower wall and side and end walls, a ilat comparatively thin section of felt disposed between tne vupper walls of said inner and outer envelopes, a second flat comparatively thin section of felt disposed between the lower walls of said inner and outer envelopes, transversely extending rows of stitches respectively in alinementwith the edges of the respective partitions and connecting the upper walls of said inner and outer. envelopes and intervening section of felt tog one .another and other transversely extending rows of 'stitches also'respectively alined with the edges o f the respective partitions connecting the lower walls of said inner and outer envelopes and intervening section of felt to one another, and longitudinally extending rows of stitches connecting the upper walls of said inner and outer.' envelopes and intervening section of felt to one.y another and other longitudinally extendingV rows .of stitches connecting the lower walls of Ysaid inner and outer envelopes and intervening section of felt to one another to form quiltedV bulges.
