Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of materials technology, specifically a bamboo fiber memory foam material. Background Technology
[0002] Existing memory foam materials are known for their unique slow rebound properties, providing personalized support according to the body's curves, effectively relieving pressure points and improving comfort. This material is widely used in products such as mattresses, pillows, and chairs because it conforms to the body shape, providing continuous support and comfort. However, despite its excellent support and comfort, memory foam has poor breathability. This means that during use, the material may absorb and retain heat and moisture, causing users to feel stuffy and uncomfortable.
[0003] Bamboo fiber materials are renowned for their natural breathability and environmental friendliness. Bamboo grows quickly, is abundant, and requires minimal chemical fertilizers and pesticides during its growth, thus being considered a sustainable and environmentally friendly material. Bamboo fiber has excellent moisture-wicking properties, effectively regulating temperature and keeping users cool and comfortable. However, while bamboo fiber excels in breathability and environmental friendliness, it falls short in terms of support and comfort. The structure of bamboo fiber means it doesn't provide the same sustained support as memory foam, potentially leading to a decrease in support over time and impacting user comfort.
[0004] Given the respective advantages and disadvantages of memory foam and bamboo fiber, developing a new material that combines the characteristics of both has significant practical value.
[0005] Therefore, developing a new material that combines the properties of bamboo fiber and memory foam has significant practical value. Utility Model Content

[0008] The multifunctional intermediate layer includes a breathable mesh layer, an antibacterial layer, a temperature regulating layer, and an elastic support layer, which are arranged sequentially between the bamboo fiber layer and the memory foam layer. The breathable mesh layer is made of highly breathable mesh material, such as polyester fiber mesh or natural fiber mesh. The breathable mesh layer is sandwiched between the bamboo fiber layer and the antibacterial layer to form a breathable channel, which helps air circulation and moisture removal.
[0009] The antibacterial layer is made of materials containing antibacterial agents, such as silver ion antibacterial agents and bamboo charcoal fiber, and is placed between the breathable mesh layer and the temperature regulating layer to form an antibacterial barrier and effectively inhibit bacterial growth.
[0010] The temperature regulation layer uses phase change material (PCM) or materials with good thermal conductivity, such as graphene or thermally conductive silicone, and is placed between the antibacterial layer and the elastic support layer to help absorb and release heat and maintain a suitable sleeping temperature.
[0011] The elastic support layer uses highly elastic foam materials, such as polyurethane foam and latex foam, and is placed between the temperature regulation layer and the memory foam layer to provide additional support and elasticity, improving overall comfort.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: by combining the bamboo fiber layer and the memory foam layer, their advantages are integrated and complemented, thus forming a material with better support and comfort.
[0013] By setting a multifunctional intermediate layer between the bamboo fiber layer and the memory foam layer, the internal quality of this material is further improved, resulting in better cushioning and higher safety. Attached Figure Description
