Abstract

A mattress structure with adjustable rigidity comprises a fixed plate (11) which is fixed in a mattress body (1). A lot of first elastic bodies (14) and second elastic bodies (15) are arranged on the fixed plate (11). Holes (111) are arranged on the fixed plate (11) corresponding to the bottom of second elastic bodies (15). A movable device (12) is arranged below the fixed plate (11), and the movable device (12) integrates with a lifting device (13), so the lifting device (13) can drive the movable device (12) to move up and down. The second elastic bodies (15) are combined with fixed elements (16). One ends of the fixed elements (16) are connected with the top ends of the second elastic bodies (15), and the other ends of the fixed elements (16) are connected fixedly with the movable device (12). In normal condition, because the height of the first elastic bodies (14) is almost equal to the height of the second elastic bodies (15), the rigidity of the mattress is in the most rigid condition. When the lifting device (13) drives the movable device (12) to move down, the fixed elements(16) will move down thereupon and drive the second elastic bodies(15) to compress downward from top end, so that the height of first elastic bodies(14) is different from the height of the second elastic bodies (15), and the rigidity of the mattress becomes soft gradually to achieve the goal of adjusting the rigidity of the mattress.

In addition, one end of the flexible wire body can be directly fixed to the top end of the second elastic body 15, and does not need to be fixed by the claw fastener.

In addition, a rocker can be disposed outside the mattress, and the rocker is connected to the rotating shaft, so that the user can manually rock the rocker to drive the rotating shaft through the rocker, and the second elastic body 15 can also be compressed. With release.

Please refer to FIG. 5 and FIG. 6 , which are schematic diagrams of the operation of the present invention. In the unadjusted state, since the top ends of the first elastic body 14 and the second elastic body 15 are close to each other, the mattress is in the hardest state. When the user wants to reduce the hardness of the mattress, the motor 131 of the lifting device 13 can be activated, so that the power output shaft 132 of the motor 131 can drive the movable device 12 to move toward the ground, because the fixed fixing member 16 is fixed on the movable device 12. The end 162 causes the fixing member 16 to move downward, and the claw end 161 of the other end of the fixing member 16 is fixed to the top end of the second elastic body 15. When the fixing member 16 moves downward, the claw end 162 is The second elastic body 15 is compressed so that the heights of the top ends of the first elastic body 14 and the second elastic body 15 are different, resulting in softness of the mattress. When the second elastic body 15 is completely compressed, the mattress is most Soft state. Therefore, the user can determine the compression stroke of the second elastic body 15 so that the softness and hardness of the mattress can be adjusted according to the user's own needs, so as to achieve a comfortable sleep.

In addition, the distance moved by the movable device 1 can be controlled by the user, and the user can selectively compress the second elastic body 1 on the fixing plate 11 to the 1/3 position of the first

elastic body

14 or 1 At the /2 position or at the position of 2/3 or the second elastic body 15 is completely compressed, the first elastic body 14 produces different degrees of sinking and elastic support when subjected to weight.

Please refer to FIG. 7A, B, and C, which are schematic diagrams showing various plane configurations of the first elastic body and the second elastic body of the adjustable softness mattress structure. The three schematic diagrams respectively show the first elastic body. 14 and the arrangement position of the second elastic body 15 when the mattress body 1 is disposed on the mattress body 1, as shown in FIG. 7A, showing that the first elastic body 14 and the second elastic body 15 are arranged in a honeycomb shape, that is, the first elastic body. 14 and the second elastic body 15 are arranged in a tight and interlaced manner, like the arrangement pattern of the honeycomb; as shown in FIG. 7B, the first elastic body 14 and the second elastic body 15 are arranged in parallel with each other. FIG. 7C shows that the positions of the first elastic body 14 and the second elastic body 15 are arranged in a regular staggered arrangement. The arrangement is such that the first elastic body 14 and the second elastic body 15 are arranged in parallel, but arranged in parallel. The first elastic body 14 and the second elastic body 15 are alternately arranged at any position; no matter how the first elastic body 14 and the second elastic body 15 are arranged, the effect of adjusting the elastic supporting force of the mattress can be achieved. .

Please refer to FIG. 8 , which is a schematic view of a third embodiment of the adjustable softness mattress structure. In this embodiment, in order to avoid the second elastic body 15 moving up and down the first elastic body 14 , the angle is The deviation causes the collision between the second elastic body 15 and the first elastic body 14 to be deformed. Therefore, the gap between the first elastic body 14 and the second elastic body 15 can be provided with the guiding body 19, which can guide the second elasticity. The displacement of the body 15 is in the direction of action while avoiding deformation of the second elastomer 15 or the first elastomer 14 due to collision. The guiding body 19 can be made of a foam material.

Please refer to FIG. 9 , which is a schematic diagram of another type of lifting device of the mattress structure with adjustable softness. In the embodiment, the motor 131 and the power output shaft 132 of the lifting device 13 are replaced by a pneumatic machine 21 . The airbag 22 and the tubular body 23 are configured to form another type of lifting device 13 in which the air press 21 is disposed in the mattress body 1 and the airbag 22 is disposed between the fixed plate 11 and the movable device 12 22 and the air compressor 21 are connected to each other through the pipe body 23, so that the air press 21 can be inflated into the air bag 22; the limit device 123 is fixed on the movable device 12, and the limit column 123 is movably disposed on the fixed plate 11, so that The movable device 12 is stably moved up and down. In addition, a height sensor 3 is disposed between the fixed plate 11 and the movable device 12, and the height sensor 3 is connected to the air press 21, and transmits the distance between the fixed plate 11 and the movable device 12 to the air pressure. In the machine 21, the amount of displacement of the movable device 12 is controlled.

When the user wants to reduce the elastic supporting force of the mattress, the air press 21 is activated to inflate the air bag 22. When the air bag 22 is inflated, the movable device 12 is moved downward toward the ground. The two elastic bodies 15 will be squeezed and compressed. When the user is lying on the mattress, the user will be first supported by the first elastic body 14 and will be subjected to the first elasticity after sinking for a certain stroke. The body 14 and the second elastic body 15 are supported to reduce the elastic supporting force of the mattress; conversely, if the user wants to increase the elastic supporting force of the mattress, the airbag 22 can be deflated by the air press 21, so that the movable device 12 passes. The elastic force of the second elastic body 15 is moved upward to adjust the elastic supporting force of the mattress.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 10, the structure is substantially the same as that of FIG. 9, and details are not described herein again. The only difference is that the air press 21 is disposed outside the mattress, and the airbags 22 are connected to each other through the tube body 23, and then connected. To the air press 21, the air compressor 21 is additionally connected to make it lower the height of the mattress, thereby reducing the space for placement.

The mode in which the lifting device is driven by the motor or the air bag is only the preferred embodiment of the present invention, and is not intended to limit the scope of the patent application of the present invention, as long as the device that can move the movable device up and down should be included in the patent application scope of the present case. in.
