Assembly for adapting a support surface in a wave shape

Abstract

The present invention relates to an assembly, comprising an element defining a lying or support surface, such as a foam layer forming a core of a mattress, and a device associated with the element for adapting the form of the lying or support surface in waves, wherein the device comprises at least one selectively expandable and/or compressible body. The body is further embedded in or arranged under a part of the element which is lower-lying during use and has above it at least a greater part of the thickness of the element. The body acts on a wave part of the element so as to selectively bring about waves in the lying or support surface, which wave part is connected via a hinged configuration to other parts of the element.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an assembly consisting of an element for defining a lying surface or support surface, such as a foam layer of a mattress core, associated with the element to accommodate a corrugated lying surface or The bearing surface is shaped and includes at least one body that is optionally expandable and / or compressible. Background technique [0002] In existing mattresses, the lying surface is defined on the mattress. It is generally intended that the bearing surface is substantially horizontal or two-dimensional. Although no modification is made to the shape of the mattress here, as an exception, the pillow is provided only for the user's head. [0003] However, a substantially completely flat support surface defined by a mattress is in many cases undesirable or can have adverse or even detrimental effects. For example, in the case of a user with a condition such as kyphosis, organ stenosis, hernia, etc., a flat lying or supp...
