Abstract
Mattresses and chaise longue cushions made of a core made of flexible polyurethane foam having two groups of rows perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the core of continuous cavities each having an elongated cross section. Each of the elongated cross sections from about the center of the longitudinal axis of the core towards the end thereof is arranged in an oblique orientation relative to the mattress height. Between the two groups of rows of continuous cavities there is present one continuous cavity in a symmetric non-oblique orientation. This arrangement causes the vertebral column to be stretched and, hence, due to movements on the mattress or chaise lounge cushion, results in kind of vertebral column physical exercises producing some stretching effect.
Claims7
A mattress or chaise longue cushion comprising a core made of flexible polyurethane foam, said core having upper and lower surfaces and having two groups of rows of continuous cavities arranged within the core transversely perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of said core, each cavity having an elongated cross section, with each of said elongated cross sections from about the center of the longitudinal axis of said core towards the end thereof being arranged in an oblique orientation relative to the mattress height and one row of a continuous cavity in about the center of the longitudinal axis of said core between said two groups of continuous cavities, the upper portion of each cavity being beneath the upper surface of the core and the lowermost portion of each cavity being above the lower surface of the core, such that each cavity is enclosed between the upper and lower surfaces of the core along substantially an entire length of the cavity.
