DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0049] The elastic module unit, elastic pad, and furniture of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The descriptions herein are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention, and those skilled in the art may conceive of other methods for implementing the present invention based on the preferred embodiments, which also fall within the scope of the present invention.

[0050] In a first aspect, the elastic module unit 1 provided by the present invention is configured to be assembled into an elastic pad 2, for example, the elastic pad 2 can be used to make household items. Figures 1-8 The elastic module unit 1 includes a fixed base plate 3 and a plurality of elastic modules 4 arranged on the fixed base plate 3. The fixed base plate 3 includes splicing side edges 5 arranged opposite to each other and end side edges 6 arranged opposite to each other. Each end side edge 6 has a plurality of connecting members, and the connecting members include at least one of a rotating clamp 7 and a coupling member 8. The rotating clamp 7 is configured to be able to swing back and forth around a pivot axis so as to releasably engage with the coupling member 8 of an adjacent elastic module unit 1; and the coupling member 8 is configured to be able to releasably engage with the rotating clamp 7 of an adjacent elastic module unit 1.

[0051] In the elastic module unit 1, since the fixed base plate 3 includes end side edges 6 arranged opposite to each other, and each end side edge 6 has a plurality of connecting members, and the connecting members include at least one of a rotating clamp 7 and a coupling member 8, and the rotating clamp 7 is configured to swing back and forth about a pivot axis to releasably engage with the coupling member 8 of an adjacent elastic module unit 1, and the coupling member 8 is configured to releasably engage with the rotating clamp 7 of an adjacent elastic module unit 1, when the elastic module unit 1 is assembled with the elastic pad 2, the splicing side edges 5 of the plurality of fixed base plates 3 are spliced ​​in sequence, and the adjacent fixed base plates 3 are connected together by engaging the rotating clamp 7 and the coupling member 8 of the two. In this way, all the fixed base plates 3 can be spliced ​​together by engaging the rotating clamp 7 and the coupling member 8, so that the plurality of elastic module units 1 are assembled into the elastic support layer 21 of the elastic pad 2. Therefore, the elastic module unit 1 can significantly improve the convenience of assembling the elastic pad 2 and facilitate disassembly for storage, thereby effectively reducing the space occupied by the elastic pad when stored.

[0052] It should be noted that the elastic module unit 1 of the present invention can have multiple types. For example, in the first type of elastic module unit 1, the end side edges 6 of the fixed base plate 3 of some elastic module units 1 have multiple rotating clamps 7 to serve as the first elastic module unit, while the end side edges 6 of the fixed base plate 3 of other elastic module units 1 have multiple coupling members 8 to serve as the second elastic module unit. In this way, the multiple coupling members 8 of a second elastic module unit can be respectively engaged with the rotating clamp 7 of the adjacent previous first elastic module unit and the rotating clamp 7 of the next first elastic module unit, and so on, thereby assembling multiple elastic module units 1 together.

[0053] For another example, in the second type of elastic module unit 1, reference Figure 1-Figure 7 Each end side 6 of the fixed base plate 3 of the elastic module unit 1 is provided with a rotating clamp 7 and a coupling member 8, so that the rotating clamp 7 of one elastic module unit 1 is engaged with the coupling member 8 of the adjacent previous elastic module unit 1, and the coupling member 8 of one elastic module unit 1 is engaged with the rotating clamp 7 of the adjacent next elastic module unit 1, and so on, thereby assembling multiple elastic module units 1 together.

[0054] In addition, the connector can be set at any position of the end side 6. For example, in some embodiments, the connector can be set at the middle position of the end side 6, or can be set at other positions close to the middle position of the end side 6. For example, in other embodiments, referring to Figure 6 A connecting piece is provided at the corner of each end side 6. In this way, the corner of the end side 6 can be fully utilized to set the connecting piece, which also facilitates the connection of adjacent fixed base plates 3.

[0055] In addition, as described above, in the second type of elastic module unit 1, the end side 6 of the fixed base plate 3 of the elastic module unit 1 has a rotation clamp 7 and a joint 8. Therefore, in some embodiments, referring to Figure 6 A rotating clamp 7 and a coupling member 8 are respectively provided at the corner of each end side 6.

[0056] In addition, in some embodiments, in order to improve the connection convenience between the multiple fixed base plates 3, the rotating clamps 7 on the two opposite end side edges 6 are located on one diagonal line of the elastic module unit 1, and the joints 8 are located on the other diagonal line of the elastic module unit 1, and the rotating clamps 7 rotate in the same direction. Figure 6 and Figure 7 , the rotating clamps 7 of any two fixed base plates 3 can be rotated in the same rotation direction, thereby connecting any two fixed base plates 3.

[0057] In addition, in other embodiments, the rotation direction of the rotating clamp 7 may be different.

[0058] In addition, in the elastic module unit 1 of the present invention, the joint member 8 can have a variety of structural types. For example, in one structural type of the joint member 8, the joint member 8 can be a rotating clamp 7, so that the rotating clamps 7 of adjacent fixed base plates 3 can be engaged. For another example, in another structural type of the joint member 8, reference Figure 2 、 Figure 4 and Figure 7 , the engaging member 8 includes a clamping column 9. In this way, when the rotating clamp 7 is engaged with the clamping column 9, the adjacent fixed base plates 3 are connected, and when the rotating clamp 7 and the clamping column 9 are released, the adjacent fixed base plates 3 are separated.

[0059] In addition, in some embodiments, reference Figure 2 、 Figure 4 and Figure 6 , a receiving groove 10 capable of accommodating connecting parts is formed on the circumferential side surface at each corner of the fixed base plate 3, so that the connecting parts such as the rotating clamp 7 and the coupling part 8 can be located in their respective corresponding receiving grooves 10, thereby preventing most of the connecting parts from leaking out from the circumferential side of the fixed base plate 3.

[0060] In addition, in some embodiments, reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 The receiving groove 10 may have an upper groove wall 11, that is, a transversely extending receiving groove 10 is formed on the circumferential side surface at a corner position of the fixed base plate 3. In this case, an operating opening 12 is formed on the upper groove wall 11 to facilitate the user to apply force to rotate the rotating clamp 7. In this way, when the operator connects the various fixed base plates, the rotating clamp 7 can be conveniently driven through the operating opening 12.

[0061] In addition, in some embodiments, reference Figure 6 The accommodating groove 10 may not have an upper groove wall 11, that is, an accommodating recess is formed at the corner position of the upper surface of the fixed base plate 3, and the accommodating recess extends outward to the circumferential side surface of the fixed base plate to serve as the accommodating groove 10. At this time, connecting parts such as the rotating clamp 7 and the coupling part 8 can be located in their respective corresponding accommodating recesses.

[0062] In addition, the rotating clamp 7 can have a variety of structural forms. For example, in some embodiments, Figure 2 、 Figure 4 and Figure 7The rotating card 7 includes a hook 13 and a hook 14. The hook 13 is configured to be releasably engaged with the engaging member 8 of the adjacent elastic module unit 1, wherein the rotating card 7 includes a storage position and an engaging position. In the storage position, the hook 14 is located in the accommodating groove 10, and a part of the hook 13 extends laterally from the accommodating groove 10, so that the operator can conveniently operate the hook 13 through a part of the hook 13 to drive the rotating card 7 to rotate. In the engaging position, the hook 13 is located in the accommodating groove of the adjacent elastic module unit, and a part of the hook 14 extends laterally from the accommodating groove 10 of the adjacent elastic module unit, so that the operator can conveniently operate the hook 14 through a part of the hook 14 to drive the rotating card 7 to rotate.

[0063] In addition, in some embodiments, reference Figure 7 The rotating clamp 7 is configured to be able to hang on a connecting rope 16 fixed to the cushion layer 15 of the elastic pad 2. By hanging the connecting rope 16 on the rotating clamp 7, the elastic pad can be formed into an elastic pad 2 without a sealed side panel. Since no sealed side panel is provided, the internal structure of the elastic pad 2 is transparent and breathable, thereby improving the breathability and comfort of the elastic pad 2. When the elastic pad 2 needs to be stored, the connecting rope 16 and the rotating clamp 7 are released, and the various fixed base plates 3 are separated from each other, so that the elastic pad 2 can be quickly and conveniently disassembled for storage, which can effectively facilitate the transportation of the elastic pad and reduce the space occupied by storage. In addition, the connecting rope 16 can be a separate connecting rope, or the connecting rope 16 can be a mesh rope that is part of the mesh side panel.

[0064] In addition, the rotating clamp 7 can be of various types. No matter what type the rotating clamp 7 is, as long as it can be connected to the connecting rope 16. For example, in some embodiments, referring to Figure 7 The rotating clamp 7 includes a hook 13 and a hook 14. The hook 13 is configured to releasably engage with the engaging member 8 of the adjacent elastic module unit 1. The rotating clamp 7 includes a storage position and an engaging position. In the storage position, the hook 14 is located in the receiving groove 10, and the hook 13 is configured to be able to hook the connecting rope 16. For example, a portion of the hook 13 extends laterally from the receiving groove 10 to hook the connecting rope 16. In the engaging position, the hook 13 is located in the receiving groove of the adjacent elastic module unit, and the hook 14 is configured to be able to hook the connecting rope 16. For example, a portion of the hook 14 extends laterally from the receiving groove 10 of the adjacent elastic module unit to hook the connecting rope 16.

[0065] In addition, in some embodiments, in order to improve the accuracy and convenience of splicing each fixed base plate 3, reference Figure 1 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6A pre-positioning structure is formed on each splicing side edge 5, and the pre-positioning structure is configured to be able to engage with the pre-positioning structure on the splicing side edge 5 of the fixed base plate 3 of the adjacent elastic module unit 1. In this way, when multiple elastic module units are spliced ​​together, the pre-positioning structures of the fixed base plates 3 of adjacent elastic module units are engaged with each other to pre-position each fixed base plate 3, and then the rotating clamps 7 and coupling members 8 of the adjacent fixed base plates 3 are engaged.

[0066] In addition, the pre-positioning structure can be of various types. No matter what type of pre-positioning structure is used, as long as it can pre-position the adjacent fixed base plates 3. For example, in some embodiments, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 3 The pre-positioning structure includes a first pre-positioning structure 17 and a second pre-positioning structure 18 arranged at intervals in the extension direction of the splicing side, and the second pre-positioning structure 18 is different from the first pre-positioning structure 17; wherein, the first pre-positioning structure 17 is configured to be able to engage with the second pre-positioning structure 18 of the adjacent elastic module unit 1, and the second pre-positioning structure 18 is configured to be able to engage with the first pre-positioning structure 17 of the adjacent elastic module unit 1. Through the engagement of the first pre-positioning structure 17 and the second pre-positioning structure 18 of the adjacent fixed base plates, the balance of the pre-positioning of the adjacent fixed base plates can be further improved.

[0067] Additionally, in some embodiments, the second pre-alignment structure 18 is identical to the first pre-alignment structure 17 .

[0068] In addition, in some embodiments, reference Figure 5 The first pre-positioning structure 17 on one side of the elastic module unit and the second pre-positioning structure 18 on the other side are arranged in the lateral direction of the elastic module unit (ie Figure 5 The second pre-alignment structures 18 on one side of the elastic module unit and the first pre-alignment structures 17 on the other side are aligned along the transverse direction of the elastic module unit. This allows adjacent fixed panels 3 to be joined simply by aligning them, further enhancing the convenience of pre-alignment.

[0069] In addition, the first pre-positioning structure 17 and the second pre-positioning structure 18 can be respectively engageable hook and slot structures. Figure 1 、 Figure 3 and Figure 5 The first pre-positioning structure 17 is a pre-positioning protrusion 19, and the second pre-positioning structure 18 is a pre-positioning groove 20. In this way, when adjacent fixed base plates 3 are spliced, it is only necessary to align the fixed base plates 3 with each other, and then push the fixed base plates 3. The pre-positioning protrusion 19 can be embedded in the pre-positioning groove 20, thereby pre-positioning and joining the adjacent fixed base plates 3.

[0070] In the second aspect, the present invention provides an elastic pad 2, referring to Figures 8-15 The elastic pad 2 includes a plurality of elastic module units 1 and a cushion layer 15 as described in any of the first aspects above, wherein a plurality of fixed base plates 3 are spliced ​​together by engaging a rotating clamp 7 and a coupling member 8, so that the plurality of elastic module units 1 are assembled into an elastic support layer 21; the cushion layer 15 is laid on the plurality of elastic modules 4 of the elastic support layer 21.

[0071] Thus, as described above, multiple fixed base plates 3 can be spliced ​​together by engaging the rotating clamps 7 and the engaging members 8, thereby assembling multiple elastic module units 1 into the elastic support layer 21 of the elastic pad 2. Therefore, the convenience of assembling the elastic pad 2 can be significantly improved, and the disassembly for storage can be facilitated, thereby effectively reducing the space occupied by the elastic pad when stored.

[0072] In addition, reference Figure 9 and Figure 10 ,as well as Figure 1 、 Figure 13 and Figure 15 The elastic pad 2 also includes a cover 22, which covers the cushion layer 15 and is connected to the fixed base plates via an edge connection structure. The edge connection structure allows the elastic pad 2 to be formed without sealed side panels. Because the edge connection structure eliminates the need for sealed side panels, the internal structure of the elastic pad 2 is transparent and breathable, improving the air permeability and comfort of the elastic pad 2. When the elastic pad 2 needs to be stored, the edge connection structure and the fixed base plates are released, and the fixed base plates 3 are separated from each other, allowing for quick and convenient disassembly for storage. This effectively facilitates the transport of the elastic pad and reduces the storage space required.

[0073] In addition, the edge connection structure can have a variety of structures. No matter which structure is adopted, as long as it can connect the fixed base plate and the cover 22 so that the elastic pad has a non-sealed side. For example, in one structure of the edge connection structure, the edge connection structure can be a mesh. In this way, the air permeability of the elastic pad 2 can be improved through the multiple meshes of the mesh. In another structure of the edge connection structure, Figure 11 and Figure 14 The edge connection structure includes a connecting rope 16. For example, the connecting rope 16 can be connected to the edge of the cover 22, such as the stop edge 23 described below. In this way, the connecting rope 16 only needs to be fixed to the base plate 3. In addition, the connecting rope 16 can be a plurality of independent and spaced-apart loops, or can extend continuously in a wavy manner.

[0074] In addition, in some embodiments, reference Figure 11 and Figure 14The rotating clamp 7 includes a hook 13 and a hook 14. The hook 13 of the rotating clamp 7 in the storage position can releasably hook the corresponding connecting rope 16, while the hook 14 of the rotating clamp 7 in the engagement position can releasably hook the corresponding connecting rope 16. In this way, the rotating clamp 7 can not only connect the various fixed base plates 3, but also facilitate the hooking of the connecting rope 16.

[0075] In addition, in some embodiments, reference Figures 9-11 ,as well as Figure 12-14 At least two opposing sides of the cover 22 are formed with stop edges 23 facing the fixed base plate 3. At least two opposing stop edges 23 (e.g., the stop edges along the length of the elastic pad) are connected to the assembled fixed base plates via an edge connection structure, such as the connection between the connecting rope 16 and the hooks 13 and 14 of the rotating clamp 7. Thus, under the tension of the edge connection structure, the stop edges 23 can be in a downwardly extended, taut state, thereby abutting and stopping the outermost elastic module 4, effectively preventing the outermost elastic module 4 from moving in the lateral direction of the elastic pad and improving the stability of the elastic module.

[0076] In addition, the stop edge 23 can maintain a predetermined distance from the fixed base plate 3, for example, Figures 9-11 , there is a large predetermined distance between the stop edge 23 and the fixed base plate 3. For example, referring to Figure 12-14 The stop edge 23 extends close to the fixed base plate 3 and maintains a predetermined interval with the fixed base plate 3, and the stop edge 23 blocks the elastic module 4. Since the elastic module 4 is blocked by the stop edge 23, the side aesthetics of the elastic pad 2 can be effectively improved.

[0077] In addition, the elastic pad 2 can be used as any desired application. For example, the elastic pad 2 can be used as an outdoor pad and an indoor pad. For example, the elastic pad 2 can be used as an elastic mattress, a sofa pad, a chair pad, and a bench pad.

[0078] In a third aspect, the present invention provides a piece of furniture comprising any of the elastic pads 2 described in the second aspect. As described above, the elastic pads 2 can reduce the cost of the furniture while providing good stability and comfort, thereby improving overall quality.

[0079] The scope of protection of the present invention is limited only by the claims. Thanks to the teachings of the present invention, those skilled in the art will readily recognize that alternative structures to the structures disclosed in the present invention can be used as viable alternative embodiments, and that the embodiments disclosed in the present invention can be combined to produce new embodiments, which also fall within the scope of the appended claims.
