Abstract
It is proposed a new construction system for mattress made of latex including sacked springs, that allows an assembly without glueings or fastenings of mechanical type and allows to supply different bearing surfaces for the human body with different support densities, suitable for the different zones of human body in the rest position and related manufacturing method.
Claims9
Mattress made of latex foam including a structure of springs or other bearing material, that is obtained by a construction system of mattress including sacked springs, that allows an assembly without glueings or fastenings of mechanical type or seams, and allows to create different bearing surfaces for the human body with different support densities suitable for the different zones of human body in the rest position, characterised in that a structure of many sacked springs is included in a block of latex foam, and that allows to differentiate the surfaces in areas having different densities or support capacities and forms for including in the more suitable manner the different human body zones in the rest position as back, legs, shoulder zone, for getting a complete rest, require a differentiated support and with different absorption depths and transpiration of the human body laid on the mattress.
Mattress and fabrication method according to preceding claims, characterised in that the spring structure is made “impermeable” (completely or partially) to the latex foam using a sacked spring structure, but being also used all of types of springs, provided that the springs are wound or closed in a suitable material, the winding concerning the whole complete structure or spring blocks or rows, or each single spring, including also the mixed “naked” and covered spring solutions.
Mattress and fabrication method according to preceding claims, characterised in that the springs are made impermeable against the latex foam (completely or partially), by various materials such as fabric, unweaved fabric, gauze, polyether, polyurethane, polyethylene, paper or any other material, including jute, hemp, raffia and cotton suitable for the insulation and/or impermeabilization aims (completely or partially) of the latex foam, including plastic materials and films, thin sheets, bands.
Mattress and fabrication method according to preceding claims, characterised in that instead of integrating a spring structure into the latex foam it is inserted a block or many blocks of any other material, such as a block or some blocks of polyurethane foam eventually and suitably shaped or a block/s of coco fibres, or a block/s of polyesther fibres for obtaining mattresses “in strata” (sandwich) and/or divided in zones, including also mixed solutions.
Mattress and fabrication method according to preceding claims, characterised in that, in the case of use of closed mold, the foam is injected, from the cover, or in alternative also (or solely) from the walls and/or also (or solely) from the mold bottom.
Mattress and fabrication method according to preceding claims, characterised in that the mold includes a bulkhead (preferably made of aluminium alloy) detachable/extractable, that allows to get a mattress of the type for two persons or, contemporaneously, two mattresses for a sole person.
