Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of mattress manufacturing, and more particularly to a mattress manufacturing apparatus. Background Technology

[0002] A mattress is an item placed between the human body and a bed to ensure consumers get healthy and comfortable sleep. Mattresses are made of a variety of materials, and mattresses made of different materials can provide different sleep effects.

[0003] In the traditional production process of foam mattresses, in order to ensure the required firmness of the mattress, two pieces of foam with different properties are generally used. First, glue is applied to the first piece of foam, and then the second piece of foam is manually placed on the glued side of the first piece of foam, so that the two are bonded together to form the mattress body. The bonded foam mattress is then conveyed by a conveyor belt to the next process for further processing.

[0004] Since the second piece of foam is manually placed on top of the first piece, at least two workers are required to operate simultaneously, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and inefficient. Furthermore, the two pieces of foam are prone to misalignment during the placement process, affecting production efficiency. Therefore, this application proposes a mattress processing device.
