Abstract
A medical air mattress has a mattress body, a lower bedspread and an upper bedspread. The mattress body is formed by multiple air cells substantially parallel arranged in a row forming an air cell row. The upper bedspread covers the mattress body and is securely connected to the lower bedspread. The mattress further comprises a pumping assembly with a pump and at least a pipeline connecting the pump with the air cells such that inflating and/or deflating of the air cells is controllable selectively.
Claims36
A medical air mattress, comprising
- a lower bedspread;
- a mattress body mounted on the lower bedspread, comprising multiple body air cells and, preferably, multiple head air cells, substantially parallel to each other and arranged in a row forming an air cell row;
- an upper bedspread covering the mattress body, connected securely to the lower bedspread;
- and
- a pumping assembly comprising:
- a pump;
- and
- at least a pipeline connecting the pump with the air cells;
- characterized in the pipeline connecting the pump with the air cells to control inflating and/or deflating of the air cells selectively.
A method to generate in medical air mattress a position for receiving a container or a toilet bedpan, the mattress comprising a lower bedspread, a mattress body mounted on the lower bedspread with multiple body air cells and/or multiple head air cells, substantially parallel to each other and arranged in a row forming an air cell row, a pumping assembly with a pump and at least a pipeline connecting the pump with the air cells, characterized in that the air cells are inflated and/or deflated independently, such that independent air cells arranged at a central part in the air cell row being independently connected to the pumping assembly are deflated to create a substantially concave position in the central part of the mattress body.
