Description

COLCHÓN DE PIEZAS INDEPENDIENTES Y DESMONTABLES MATTRESS OF INDEPENDENT AND DETACHABLE PARTS
OBJETO DE LA INVENCIÓNOBJECT OF THE INVENTION
La invención se refiere a un nuevo tipo de. colchón, compuesto por una base, unos medios de unión y una pluralidad de piezas elásticas independientes, desmontables e intercambiables para apoyo del cuerpo.The invention relates to a new type of. mattress, consisting of a base, a joining means and a plurality of independent, removable and interchangeable elastic pieces for body support.
ANTECEDENTES DE LA INVENCIÓNBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Actualmente existen en el mercado múltiples tipos de colchones que aseguran que el cuerpo disfrute de un descanso beneficioso y que deben además cumplir Ia función de procurarle un buen sostén, ni demasiado blando ni demasiado duro. Las principales variedades son las siguientes:There are currently multiple types of mattresses on the market that ensure that the body enjoys a beneficial rest and that must also fulfill the function of providing a good support, neither too soft nor too hard. The main varieties are as follows:
- Colchón de lana: en Ia actualidad se fabrica muy poco porque Ia lana ha sido reemplazada por materiales nuevos. Este tipo de colchón tiene el inconveniente de que Ia lana se apelmaza con el uso por Io que cada dos o tres años es necesario volver a cardarla para devolverle su consistencia; además, los colchoneros profesionales son hoy en día muy escasos.- Wool mattress: currently very little is manufactured because wool has been replaced by new materials. This type of mattress has the disadvantage that the wool becomes caked with use, so that every two or three years it is necessary to re-card it to restore its consistency; In addition, professional mattresses are very scarce today.
- Colchón de muelles: se compone de resortes de acero, que pueden ser bicónicos (las espirales superiores e inferiores son más grandes que las centrales) o cilindricos (las espirales son del mismo diámetro), y suelen estar aislados individualmente para evitar los ruidos. A uno y otro lado de los muelles, el porta-relleno soporta una capa de crin, de sisal o de fieltro; después, un relleno de algodón, lana o fibras sintéticas, que a su vez llevan un forro y, finalmente, todo queda encerrado en el cotín. Estos colchones son sólidos y confortables.- Spring mattress: it consists of steel springs, which can be biconical (the upper and lower spirals are larger than the central ones) or cylindrical (the spirals are the same diameter), and are usually individually insulated to avoid noise. On either side of the springs, the filler holder supports a layer of horsehair, sisal or felt; then a cotton, wool or synthetic fiber filling, which in turn has a lining and, finally, everything is locked in the cotín. These mattresses are solid and comfortable.
Colchón de látex sintético: el material es Ia reconstitución química del látex natural. Estos colchones tienen una superficie plana y otra llena de alvéolos que favorecen Ia circulación de aire. Son muy higiénicos pero se deterioran con Ia luz cuando se exponen a ella sin su funda.Synthetic latex mattress: the material is the chemical reconstitution of natural latex. These mattresses have a flat surface and another one filled with alveoli that favor air circulation. They are very hygienic but deteriorate with light when exposed to it without its cover.
Colchón de poliéster: Ia densidad del poliéster reservado para Ia fabricación de colchones no debería ser inferior a 25 kg/m3; de esta densidad depende Ia blandura de Ia espuma del colchón. Puesto que no siempre se respetan las normas, este tipo de material ha adquirido una mala reputación inmerecida.Polyester mattress: the density of the polyester reserved for the manufacture of mattresses should not be less than 25 kg / m 3 ; the softness of the mattress foam depends on this density. Since the rules are not always respected, this type of material has acquired an undeserved bad reputation.
Antes de adquirirlo, el comprador debe exigir que se precise Ia densidad de Ia espuma utilizada; para ser de buena calidad, debe tener además un espesor mínimo de 10 cm.Before acquiring it, the buyer must demand that the density of the foam used be specified; to be of good quality, it must also have a minimum thickness of 10 cm.
Todos estos tipos de colchones descritos tienen el inconveniente de que su parte principal, Ia base de descanso, no es desmontable puesto que está fabricada como una pieza única; por otra parte todos estos colchones presentan en Ia zona de apoyo del cuerpo una superficie plana continua por Io que, por más elástica que sea, nunca puede adaptarse totalmente al cuerpo.All these types of mattresses described have the drawback that their main part, the rest base, is not removable since it is manufactured as a single piece; on the other hand, all these mattresses have a continuous flat surface in the body support area, which, however elastic, can never fully adapt to the body.
DESCRIPCIÓN DE LA INVENCIÓNDESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
La invención consiste en un colchón compuesto por una base y una pluralidad variable de piezas independientes, y desmontables de Ia base, para apoyo del cuerpo. La base está unida a dichas piezas independientes y desmontables mediante unos medios de unión desmontables, concretamente tejidos adherentes tipo velero o similar, Io que permite que dichas piezas independientes puedan ser extraídas, incorporadas, cambiadas por otras iguales o diferentes y, consecuentemente, sustituidas por otras nuevas cuando están deterioradas.The invention consists of a mattress composed of a base and a variable plurality of independent and removable parts of the base, for supporting the body. The base is attached to said independent and removable parts by means of removable joining means, specifically sailboat-type adherent fabrics or the like, which allows said independent parts to be extracted, incorporated, exchanged for other same or different ones and, consequently, replaced by new ones when they are deteriorated.
El tejido adherente incorporado a Ia base como parte del medio de unión tipo velero o similar cubre Ia totalidad de Ia superficie superior de dicha base o puede cubrirla parcialmente cuando se dispone en forma de bandas continuas o discontinuas, bien entendido que, a los fines de Ia invención, dichas bandas deben colocarse en una cantidad suficiente para poder colocar las piezas independientes y desmontables, sean cuales sean sus dimensiones y formas, en cualquier posición de dicha superficie superior de dicha base. Las piezas independientes y desmontable están provistas en su parte inferior con el tejido complementario correspondiente para completar el medio de unión tipo velero o similar.The adherent fabric incorporated into the base as part of the sailboat-type connection means or similar covers the entire upper surface of said base or can partially cover it when it is arranged in the form of continuous or discontinuous bands, it being understood that, for the purposes of The invention, said bands must be placed in a sufficient quantity to be able to place the independent and removable pieces, whatever their dimensions and shapes, in any position of said upper surface of said base. Detachable and detachable parts are provided in its lower part with the corresponding complementary fabric to complete the sailboat-type connection means or similar.
Además de su uso como elemento de descanso convencional, el colchón de Ia invención es especialmente adecuado para personas en tratamiento hospitalario; en particular, es especialmente adecuado para personas que han sufrido cualquier tipo de fractura y/o heridas que requieran que el paciente permanezca en cama en una misma posición ya que, al ser desmontables las piezas mencionadas, Ia superficie del colchón bajo Ia zona fracturada o herida puede ser dotada de piezas independientes de las formas convenientes y de unas dimensiones adecuadamente reducidas respecto a las de las restantes piezas independientes del colchón con el fin de no forzar Ia posición de Ia parte afectada del cuerpo del paciente y permitir, además, que Ia presión que el colchón ejerce sobre dicha parte afectada sea de Ia magnitud adecuada para el correcto descanso y recuperación de Ia misma; ello incluye, por supuesto, el caso en que una zona del colchón deba ser desprovista totalmente de alguna pieza.In addition to its use as a conventional rest element, the mattress of the invention is especially suitable for people in hospital treatment; in particular, it is especially suitable for people who have suffered any type of fracture and / or wounds that require the patient to remain in bed in the same position since, since the mentioned pieces are removable, the surface of the mattress under the fractured area or The wound can be provided with independent parts of the appropriate shapes and with suitably reduced dimensions with respect to the other independent parts of the mattress in order not to force the position of the affected part of the patient's body and also allow Ia pressure that the mattress exerts on said affected part is of the adequate magnitude for the correct rest and recovery thereof; This includes, of course, the case in which an area of the mattress must be totally devoid of any part.
La base del colchón de Ia invención puede tener cualquier forma y estar fabricada en cualquier material, elástico o semi-rígido, y sus dimensiones pueden ser variables en función del uso y Ia finalidad a Ia que se destine el colchón. Un adecuado manejo de estas variables permite que Ia constitución del colchón de Ia invención pueda adecuarse a personas adultas o a niños y, por extensión, pueda aplicarse a Ia fabricación de cojines, asientos y respaldos incluidos los de vehículos, apoyabrazos, reposapiés, almohadas, etc.The base of the mattress of the invention can have any shape and be made of any material, elastic or semi-rigid, and its dimensions can be variable depending on the use and purpose for which the mattress is intended. Proper handling of these variables allows the constitution of the mattress of the invention to be adapted to adults or children and, by extension, can be applied to the manufacture of cushions, seats and backrests including those of vehicles, armrests, footrests, pillows, etc. .
Las piezas independientes pueden obtenerse mediante cortes longitudinales y transversales de un colchón tradicional o mediante una fabricación independiente para cada tipo de pieza; su forma puede ser prismática, cilindrica, troncocónica, troncopiramidal o cualquier otra adecuada para deformarse elásticamente cuando se someta a una carga perpendicular o ligeramente inclinada respecto al plano de Ia base del colchón; su sección puede ser cuadrada, circular, elíptica, poligonal o de cualquier otra forma; su altura es variable según las necesidades del usuario o paciente; el material de las piezas es preferentemente látex natural o sintético aunque puede usarse cualquier otro material elástico adecuado para colchones. Debido a Ia simplicidad de diseño del colchón de Ia invención y a las características de independencia y desmontabilidad de sus piezas, pueden montarse sobre una misma base piezas independientes de diferentes formas, secciones, alturas y materiales. Ello significa, finalmente, que Ia disposición de las piezas independientes y desmontables sobre la base del colchón no es obligatoriamente en forma de retícula de filas y columnas paralelas sino en cualquier forma, dependiendo Ia colocación de cada pieza exclusivamente de Ia conveniencia de situarla en un punto determinado en función de las necesidades del cuerpo, particularmente del cuerpo de un paciente hospitalizado.The independent pieces can be obtained by means of longitudinal and transversal cuts of a traditional mattress or by means of an independent manufacture for each type of piece; its shape can be prismatic, cylindrical, frusto-conical, truncated-pyramidal or any other suitable to deform elastically when subjected to a perpendicular or slightly inclined load with respect to the plane of the mattress base; its section can be square, circular, elliptical, polygonal or in any other way; its height is variable according to the needs of the user or patient; the material of the pieces is preferably natural or synthetic latex although any other elastic material suitable for mattresses can be used. Due to the simplicity of the design of the mattress of the invention and the characteristics of independence and removability of its pieces, independent pieces of different shapes, sections, heights and materials can be mounted on the same base. This means, finally, that the arrangement of the independent and removable pieces on the base of the mattress is not necessarily in the form of a grid of parallel rows and columns but in any form, the placement of each piece depending exclusively on the convenience of placing it in a point determined according to the needs of the body, particularly the body of a hospitalized patient.
Este tipo de colchón formado con piezas independientes favorece Ia ventilación del cuerpo del paciente por circulación de aire, evitando así múltiples inconvenientes de los colchones clásicos. Favorece además Ia regeneración celular debido al masaje que proporciona Ia pluralidad de piezas independientes, y evita también Ia formación de llagas producidas por el roce de Ia piel con una superficie dura.This type of mattress formed with independent parts favors ventilation of the patient's body by air circulation, thus avoiding multiple drawbacks of classic mattresses. It also favors cell regeneration due to the massage provided by the plurality of independent parts, and also prevents the formation of sores produced by rubbing the skin with a hard surface.
Las piezas independientes están espaciadas entre sí con separaciones variables que pueden regularse a voluntad, sin que exista ninguna limitación en Ia dimensión de dichas separaciones debido al concepto principal de Ia invención que es proveer piezas totalmente independientes y desmontables que pueden ser fácilmente unidas a Ia base en cualquier lugar de Ia misma o retiradas de ella. Dichas separaciones se eligen según las necesidades del usuario o de Ia dolencia a tratar; si es necesario, algunas de las piezas independientes pueden ser retiradas, por ejemplo en caso de heridas para que éstas no estén en contacto directo con el colchón.The independent parts are spaced from each other with variable separations that can be adjusted at will, without there being any limitation in the dimension of said separations due to the main concept of the invention, which is to provide totally independent and removable parts that can be easily attached to the base. anywhere in it or withdrawn from it. Said separations are chosen according to the needs of the user or the condition to be treated; if necessary, some of the independent pieces can be removed, for example in case of wounds so that they are not in direct contact with the mattress.
Cuando el colchón de Ia invención es utilizado para niños pequeños o bebés, las piezas independientes son de tamaño reducido; el espacio de separación entre ellas puede evitar las conocidas asfixias producidas por el colchón en contacto con las vías respiratorias de los niños ya que el colchón de Ia invención ayuda a Ia respiración.When the mattress of the invention is used for small children or babies, the independent pieces are of reduced size; the separation space between them can avoid the known suffocations produced by the mattress in contact with the respiratory tracts of children since the mattress of the invention helps breathing.
También pueden disponerse piezas independientes de mayor altura que las restantes en las zonas de borde del colchón de manera que actúen a modo de barrera para impedir a los niños caerse de Ia cama.Independent pieces of greater height than the rest can also be arranged in the edge areas of the mattress so that they act as a barrier to prevent children from falling out of bed.
Todas las piezas del colchón (base, piezas independientes, todas ellas con sus elementos correspondientes para formar los medios de unión) son susceptibles, de acuerdo con Io explicado, de fabricarse y comercializarse en lugares y momentos distintos; todas ellas son intercambiables y cualquiera de ellas puede ser sustituida si esta deteriorada o lavada si esta sucia.All the pieces of the mattress (base, independent pieces, all of them with their corresponding elements to form the joining means) are susceptible, according to what I explained, to be manufactured and marketed in places and times different; all of them are interchangeable and any of them can be replaced if it is damaged or washed if it is dirty.
El colchón puede ir o no forrado. En este último caso, el forro irá provisto de medios de cierre laterales en todos o algunos de los lados, tales como cremalleras, cierres de presión u otros, que permitan acceder fácilmente a su interior para extraer, introducir, intercambiar o alterar Ia disposición de una o varias de las piezas independientes y desmontables.The mattress may or may not be lined. In the latter case, the lining will be provided with lateral closing means on all or some of the sides, such as zippers, snap closures or others, that allow easy access to its interior to extract, introduce, exchange or alter the arrangement of one or more of the independent and removable parts.
