Definitions
- the invention relates to a mattress support of the box spring type.
- Sleeping comfort forms a very important factor in this context. It is important for sleeping comfort to be as good as possible in the various sleeping positions which a person can adopt. A reduced or less than desirable sleeping comfort leads to an interrupted sleep pattern or to a lack of sleep.
- Box springs are known. Box springs are used in many formats. They are used as supports for mattresses, the box spring resiliently supporting the mattress above it.
- the boxspring is a mattress-like base containing springs onto which the true mattress is placed. The use of a box spring generally has a positive influence on the sleeping comfort.
- sleeping comfort is not a parameter which can be measured unambiguously. What one person finds comfortable will be less comfortable or even far from ideal for another person.
- box springs in which, by way of example, a special shoulder region is provided in a base section.
- This shoulder region is of the same height as the base section but has a lower hardness.
- the whole (base section + shoulder region) is surrounded by one covering, and consequently the two parts cannot act independently of one another.
- the covering, at the seam between insert and base section, will prevent the insert from being fully depressed at that location.
- a box spring is characterized in that the box spring includes an assembly of a base section, which includes at least one recess at the level of a body region, and a separate, removable insert, which can be placed in the recess, the insert and the base section functioning independently of one another in the assembled state.
- the term "functioning independently” is to be understood as meaning that the insert and adjoining zones of the base section can be depressed in different ways, for example with a higher pressure on the insert while the pressure on the base section remains constant not causing any altered pressure on adjoining zones of the base section. In other words, a greater hardness of the base section will not prevent the insert from being depressed.
- a box spring which includes an assembly of a base section, which includes a recess at the level of a body region, and an insert, which can be placed in the recess, a cloth-covered slit being present between the insert and the base section in the assembled state.
- the insert may be a separate, removable insert.
- the insert comprises a recessed but fixed section. The cloth-covered slit, i.e. a notch, slot or groove between base section and insert, the walls of which are lined with cloth, reduces the coefficient of friction between base section and insert.
- the recess in the box spring is preferably provided at the level of the shoulder and upper arm and/or at the level of the hip region of a user.
- the invention is based on the insight that the independent insert creates a highly unique individual region in a box spring. Since the insert is not vertically connected to the other adjoining regions of the base section (as would be the case if the insert were to be integral with the remainder of the box spring), this insert can function almost completely independently of the base section. Consequently, the adjoining zones can have little or no inhibiting influence on the adaptability of the independent insert.
- there are means for reducing the friction between the two parts preferably comprise at least one layer of cloth which is arranged between base section and insert. This cloth may form a covering for base section and/or insert, so that a cloth-covered slit is formed between the two.
- This covering may be a separate covering for base section and insert or a common covering for the two parts which also lines the inner side of the slit between the two parts.
- the properties of the insert can be selected in a very simple way such that they adapt to the person in question at a given moment. This is of considerable practical importance, since although box springs (as well as mattresses) have a long service life, people's weight or sleeping habits often change.
- a box spring according to embodiments of the invention in which a removable insert is used therefore makes it easy to take account of such changes without the box spring as a whole having to be replaced and to create maximum sleeping comfort over a prolonged period of time.
- the insert functions independently has the further comfort-enhancing consequence for the corresponding body region that both the mattress and the said body region of the person can sink in more deeply; and even if the abovementioned mattress has already been provided with a lowered comfort zone, the independent insert still provides further added value, resulting in a noticeable improvement to the function of this comfort region.
- the hardness of the insert preferably differs from the hardness of adjoining regions of the base section and/or the support surface of the insert is preferably recessed or projecting, preferably recessed, with respect to support surfaces of adjoining regions of the base section.
- the insert can be removed from the recess in the base section of the box spring.
- the height or depth of the insert can then be adapted or its hardness can be replaced by a different desired hardness.
- the height can be adjusted by either adjusting the thickness of the insert or by using means in or on the base section and/or on the insert which enable the insert to be fixed at a lower or higher level in the recess.
- the height or depth adjustability ensures that the separate independent insert in the box spring can be adjusted separately according to the width of the shoulders. This dimension may differ from person to person.
- the hardness of the insert can be adjusted by using a different material.
- pocket springs optionally having a different steel wire and/or spring diameter, foam, latex, polyurethane, polyether or other materials, such as air, water or gel.
- foam such as air, water or gel.
- polyurethane such as polyurethane
- polyether such as polyether
- a number of these different materials may be present in the same insert.
- the hardness of the insert is dependent on the material used and on the height of the insert.
- the support surface of the insert is preferably recessed with respect to support surfaces of adjoining regions of the base section.
- a depression at the level of the shoulder and/or hip region ensures that the mattress can compress further in these regions and the shoulder and/or hip of the person lying on his side can sink deeper into the shoulder and/or hip region of the mattress.
- the weight of the shoulders and/or hips may differ for each person and may even change over the course of time for the same person. Therefore, it is advantageous if the hardness of this shoulder and/or hip region can also be adjusted, so that it ensures that the correct hardness is achieved for each person.
- the separate, removable nature of the insert of or for a box spring according to one embodiment of the invention makes this possible.
- FIGS. 1, 2 and 3 are diagrammatic and not to scale; identical components are generally denoted by identical reference symbols.
- Figures 1, 2 and 3 are shown as if the box spring were transparent. This is only done in order to make it possible to demonstrate more clearly which of the various components are which and how they fit together. In reality, of course, a box spring according to the invention is not usually transparent.
- Figure 1 shows a box spring 1 according to a first embodiment of the invention.
- the box spring 1 includes a base section 2 in which there is a recess 3, in the example shown, in a shoulder region.
- the box spring 1 also includes an insert 4, in the example shown a shoulder piece, which can be placed into and removed from the recess. In the figure, this is diagrammatically indicated by means of a double-headed arrow.
- Figure 2 shows a box spring 1 in which the separate, removable insert 4 is positioned in the recess 3. Because the insert is removable and is positioned in the recess 3 in the base section 2, it is very easy to select or alter the properties of the insert 4 in such a manner that it matches a user of the box spring at a given time.
- the insert 4 can be removed from the recess in the box spring.
- the height or depth of the insert 4 can be adjusted, or the insert 4 can easily be replaced by an insert with a different desired hardness.
- the height can be adjusted by either adjusting the thickness of the insert 4 or by using means in or on the base section 2 and/or on the insert 4, enabling the insert 4 to be fixed more or less deeply in the recess.
- the adjustable height or depth ensures that the separate, independent insert 4 can be adjusted separately in the box spring 1 according to the width of the shoulders. This dimension may vary from person to person.
- the weight of the shoulder portion of the body may also differ for each person and may even vary for the same person over the course of time. Therefore, it is desirable for it also to be possible to adjust the hardness of this shoulder region, so that an appropriate hardness is ensured for each person.
- the separate, removable nature of the shoulder piece 4 of the box spring according to the invention makes this possible.
- the insert 4 can be replaced by a more suitable insert, i.e. an insert with properties which provide optimum sleeping comfort at that time given the weight and any other requirements, and this can be done in a simple manner and at relatively low cost.
- a more suitable insert i.e. an insert with properties which provide optimum sleeping comfort at that time given the weight and any other requirements, and this can be done in a simple manner and at relatively low cost.
- These benefits are not offered by regions which are fixed in the box spring.
- the insert 4 and the base section 2 function almost independently of one another. Consequently, the adjoining zones have little to no inhibiting effect on the adjustability of the separate, independent region, in the example shown the shoulder region.
- the support surface of the insert 4 is preferably recessed with respect to the support surfaces of adjoining regions of the base section 3.
- Figure 3 diagrammatically depicts a perspective view of a second embodiment of a box spring 1 according to the invention.
- a recess 3 is arranged in a well-defined region (for example the shoulder region) over the entire width of the box spring 1.
- this recess could also cover part of the width of the box spring 1.
- the base section 2 includes, for example, pocket springs or foamed rubber.
- an insert 4 which is recessed but not removable. This insert 4 is produced separately and has a different height and if appropriate a different hardness from the base section 2.
- a covering 8 is arranged around base section and insert, specifically in such a way that a cloth-covered slit 7 is present between the base section 2 and the insert 4.
- FIG. 3 This shows a cross section through that part of the box spring 1 where insert 4 is positioned in the recess 3 in the base section, the assembly of base section 2 and insert 4 being surrounded by a common covering 8.
- cloth-covered slits 7 are formed between insert 4 and base section 2.
- These cloth-covered slits 7 enable the base section 2 and the insert 4 to function independently of one another.
- the purpose of the cloth at the level of the slit 7 is to reduce the coefficient of friction between base section 2 and insert 4.
- the cloth-covered slit 7 may be present over part of the height of the box spring and/or of the insert or over virtually the entire height of one and/or the other. In the embodiment presented in Figure 3, the cloth-covered slit 7 is present over the entire height of the insert 4 but not over the entire height of the box spring.
- Figure 4 diagrammatically depicts a side view of a person lying on a mattress 5 on a box spring 1 according to the invention.
- the insert 4 is recessed with respect to the base section 2, i.e. the support surface (when neither insert 4 nor base section 2 is under load) of the insert 4 with respect to the support surface of adjoining regions of the base section 2.
- the hardness of the insert 4 is also lower than the hardness of adjoining regions of the base section 2.
- the box spring may be placed on legs, as diagrammatically indicated in the figures, but may also be placed in a surround.
- the box spring may be a single box spring or a double box spring.
- the box spring may be provided with two recesses, in which case an insert can be placed in each of the recesses, with one recess in which a double insert or two smaller single inserts can be placed.
- a box spring according to the invention may be provided with a recess at the level of the shoulder region, a recess at the level of the hip region or a combination of the two.
- the invention also relates to a base section and an insert for use in a box spring.
