5 CONSTRUCTIONAL ARRANGEMENT APPLIED TO A MATTRESS BOX TECHNICAL FIELD

[001] The following descriptive report for a utility model refers to the development of a box for a mattress, comprising a base made of reforestation wood supported on legs, a block of thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) foam, a hollow frame containing fabric on the side surface and a layer of hammered non-slip material. STATE OF THE ART

[002] A box spring is a structure used as a base for a mattress. It serves as support and is usually made of wood or metal, providing a stable and even surface for the mattress. Box springs may come with legs or wheels, facilitating movement and raising the mattress off the floor, which can help with ventilation and mattress durability. There are different types of box springs, such as the storage box spring, which has a storage compartment, or the split box spring, which is divided into two parts to facilitate transport and installation.

[003] Some important characteristics of the box spring can be mentioned: - Generally, the shower enclosure is made of wood or MDF and may have a fabric covering, such as suede or synthetic leather, which adds an aesthetic touch to the room; - Box springs are available in various sizes, such as single, double, queen, and king. For example, the standard size of a box spring for a double mattress is 138 cm wide by 188 cm deep. Petition 870250016050, dated 26 / 02 / 2025, page 5 / 13 / 5 length; - They offer ideal support for the mattress, helping to extend its lifespan and maintain correct posture during sleep; - In addition to functionality, box springs can also be chosen for their design, complementing the bedroom decor; and There are various options on the market, ranging from simpler models to more elaborate ones, with drawers or compartments for storage.

[004] An example of a box spring for a mattress is revealed in BR202021023923-3 which consists of a standard box spring bed made of wood or any other compatible material, offering as a differentiating factor the reduction of space during transport by proposing an articulated base of the accordion type. The configuration applied to the box spring bed is preferably made of wood, has support legs and is covered with a cover. The reduction in volume of the base resembles an accordion, with the transverse sides moving, by means of the hinges, until their outer faces meet, reducing the volume by more than 90%.

[005] Document MU8800349-3 discloses a box for a mattress, where the bed frame is of the type made with a rigid structure, in the form of a box, on which the mattress itself is applied; said protector was developed in the form of an annular strip in elastic fabric and elastics applied to the two free edges; said protector can be installed on the bed frame, covering all sides of the same, remaining juxtaposed to the outer faces of said bed frame. Petition 870250016050, dated 26 / 02 / 2025, page 6 / 13 / 5 PROBLEMS WITH THE TECHNIQUE

[006] Box springs are a modern solution for beds. However, some problems can arise with a box spring, such as: - Wooden or metal structures can crack or break over time, especially if they are of inferior quality; With continued use, the shower enclosure may start making unpleasant noises, such as creaking, due to loose parts or wear and tear; - Feet or casters can wear out, making the box unstable or difficult to move; - If the shower stall is in a humid environment and lacks adequate ventilation, it can develop mold and mildew; and Over time, the box spring can become misaligned, causing discomfort and affecting the support of the mattress.

[007] The vast majority of these problems can be caused by low quality materials, or the use of unsuitable materials for a shower enclosure. PROPOSED SOLUTION

[008] Thus, due to the considerations pertinent to the problems of the technique presented above, one of the objectives of the present utility model is the creation of a box for a mattress, with polymeric materials and with a slatted base made of reforestation wood.

[009] Another objective achieved is the block made of TPE, which is a flexible and elastic material made from polymers that can be molded and remolded under heat. This foam is known for its durability, strength, and ability to return to its shape. Petition 870250016050, dated 02 / 26 / 2025, page 7 / 13 / 5 original after being compressed or deformed. This block serves as support for the mattress, guaranteeing an extra layer of comfort for the user. DESCRIPTION

[010] The characterization of the present utility model is made by means of a representative figure of the constructive arrangement provided in a mattress base, in such a way that the product can be fully reproduced by appropriate technique, allowing full characterization of the functionality of the object claimed.

[011] Based on the elaborated figure that expresses the preferred way of carrying out the product now conceived, the descriptive part of the report is based, through a detailed and consecutive numbering, where it clarifies aspects that may be implied by the representation adopted, in order to clearly determine the intended protection.

[012] These figures are merely illustrative and may present variations, provided they do not deviate from what was initially requested.

[013] In this case, it is necessary to: Figure 01 shows an exploded view of the mattress base, illustrating its essential components.

[014] The proposed utility model comprises a base made of reforestation wood that already integrates the frame (1) supported on non-slip feet (2), having a block of polymeric material (3), for example, thermoplastic elastomer foam (TPE), said foam being placed on said base (1), having a frame covered with fabrics (4) in various patterns and a sheet of non-slip material (5), Petition 870250016050, dated 26 / 02 / 2025, page 8 / 13 / 5 where the mattress rests (6).

[015] The mattress (6) is placed on the non-slip material sheet (5) and is inserted inside the frame covered with fabric (4). Petition 870250016050, dated 26 / 02 / 2025, page 9 / 13
