Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mattress technology, specifically a mattress with water circulation heating function. Background Technology
[0002] Water-circulating heated mattresses regulate the internal temperature of the mattress through a water circulation system, providing a comfortable sleep experience. Their main structure includes the mattress body and a built-in water pipe system. Water flows through the pipes via a pump, is heated to the set temperature by a heat exchanger, and then circulates again. The mattress surface is typically made of breathable material to ensure even heat distribution and prevent overheating. Users can adjust the temperature according to their individual needs, and some mattresses also have a thermostat function to ensure a comfortable temperature throughout the night, helping to improve sleep quality and relieve physical fatigue.
[0003] In closed water systems, bacteria, algae, and other microorganisms easily multiply due to slow water flow and suitable temperatures. As these microorganisms grow, they produce metabolic byproducts, forming a biofilm. This biofilm, composed of microbial metabolic waste, dead cells, and external substances, gradually adheres to the pipe walls. The formation of the biofilm not only increases water flow resistance but also significantly reduces heat transfer efficiency. With the accumulation of the biofilm, water flow is further impeded, leading to poor heat exchange and ultimately uneven heating, affecting the overall heating effect of the water circulation system.
[0004] In view of this, we propose a mattress with water circulation heating function. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a mattress with a water circulation heating function. This mattress solves the problem that in a closed water system, the biofilm formed by the growth of microorganisms adheres to the pipe wall, increasing water flow resistance and reducing heat conduction efficiency, resulting in uneven heating.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0007] A mattress with water circulation heating function includes a mattress. A circulation mechanism is provided on the inner wall of the mattress. The circulation mechanism includes an outer circulation tube, an inner circulation tube, a connecting tube, and a heating element. A filtering mechanism is provided on the connecting tube. The filtering mechanism includes a connecting passage member fixedly connected to the connecting tube. A vertical passage groove is formed on the inner wall of the connecting passage member, and a filter element is provided on the inner wall of the vertical passage groove. A pressing member is provided on the top of the connecting passage member to cover the top of the connecting passage member. The filter element has a limiting groove on its inner wall; the filter element includes a square block, which is piston-connected to the inner wall of the vertical passing groove. A spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the square block, and a filter screen is fixedly connected to the other end of the spring. A limiting rod is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the filter screen. The pressing element includes a threaded cap, which is threadedly connected to the top of the connecting passing element. One end of a spring is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the threaded cap, and a disc block is fixedly connected to the other end of the spring. An indicator rod is fixedly connected to the top of the disc block.
[0008] Preferably, the outer wall of the filter element is piston-connected to the inner wall of the square block, a filter screen is provided on the inner wall of the filter element, the filter element is used to filter water quality, and the outer wall of the limiting rod is slidably connected to the inner wall of the square block.
[0009] Preferably, the outer wall of the indicator rod is piston-connected to the inner wall of the threaded cover, and the raising and lowering of the indicator rod is used to visually observe whether the disc block has fallen.
[0010] Preferably, the limiting groove is used to engage the limiting rod, and the top of the threaded cover is provided with a handle.
[0011] Preferably, an inner circulation tube is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the outer circulation tube sleeve, and the inner wall of the inner circulation tube sleeve is in communication with the inner wall of the outer circulation tube sleeve.
[0012] Preferably, the outer wall of the inner circulation tube is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting tube, and the other end of the connecting tube is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the outer circulation tube sleeve.
[0013] Preferably, a heating element is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting pipe, and the heating element is used to heat water.
[0014] By employing the above technical solution, this utility model provides a mattress with water circulation heating function. It possesses at least the following beneficial effects:
[0015] (1) This utility model incorporates a filtration mechanism. Hot water from the connecting pipe enters the connecting component and passes through a filter screen. When the filter screen contains many impurities, the resistance to water passing through it increases, as does the reaction force. This causes the filter screen to compress spring one, disengaging the limiting rod from the limiting groove. At this point, spring two moves the disc block downwards, pushing the filter element downwards. This causes the spare filter element at the top to move downwards until its limiting rod engages with the limiting groove under the action of spring one. This completes the automatic filter element replacement. Simultaneously, the disc block moves the indicator rod downwards, retracting it into the threaded cover. The user can then unscrew the cover to replace the spare filter element. This eliminates the need for manual filter cleaning; the user can easily replace the filter element by observing the indicator rod's prompts.
[0016] (2) This utility model incorporates a circulation mechanism. When the heating element is activated, the newly heated water in the connecting pipe enters the inner circulation pipe. The hot water in the inner circulation pipe moves to the side away from the connecting pipe and then enters the outer circulation pipe sleeve. Figure 4 As shown, the hot water then moves back through the outer circulation tube and enters the connecting pipe, before finally entering the heating element for heating. In this process, the newly heated hot water encounters the circulating hot water at the connection between the outer and inner circulation tubes. The newly heated hot water heats the circulating hot water. Due to the double-layered pipe design of the outer and inner circulation tubes, the water entering sequentially encounters and transfers heat between them. When the hot water meets the already circulated water, heat is transferred from the hotter water to the colder water through convection and conduction. Because the entire piping system is designed with this alternating heating and heat transfer process, the hot water temperature inside the mattress remains uniform, preventing overheating or cooling in certain areas. This ensures even heating of the entire mattress, resulting in a more uniform heat distribution and a more consistent water temperature throughout the system. This prevents heat from concentrating in a single area, thus preventing localized overheating and improving user comfort and experience. Attached Figure Description

[0027] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0028] Please see Figures 1-8As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a mattress with water circulation heating function, including a mattress 1. A circulation mechanism 2 is provided on the inner wall of the mattress 1. The circulation mechanism 2 includes a circulation outer sleeve 21, a circulation inner tube 22, a connecting tube 23, and a heating element 24. A filter mechanism 3 is provided on the connecting tube 23. The filter mechanism 3 includes a connecting passage member 31, which is fixedly connected to the connecting tube 23. A vertical passage groove 32 is formed on the inner wall of the connecting passage member 31, and a filter element 33 is provided on the inner wall of the vertical passage groove 32. A pressing member 34 is provided on the top of the connecting passage member 31 to cover the top of the connecting passage member 31. A limiting groove 35 is formed on the inner wall of component 31; the filter component 33 includes a square block 331, which is piston-connected to the inner wall of the vertical passage groove 32. A spring 332 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the square block 331, and a filter screen 333 is fixedly connected to the other end of the spring 332. A limiting rod 334 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the filter screen 333; the pressing component 34 includes a threaded cap 341, which is threadedly connected to the top of the connecting passage component 31. One end of a spring 342 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the threaded cap 341, and a disc block 343 is fixedly connected to the other end of the spring 342. An indicator rod 344 is fixedly connected to the top of the disc block 343.
[0029] The outer wall of the filter element 333 is piston-connected to the inner wall of the square block 331. A filter screen is installed on the inner wall of the filter element 333. The filter element 333 is used to filter water. The outer wall of the limiting rod 334 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the square block 331. The outer wall of the indicator rod 344 is piston-connected to the inner wall of the threaded cover 341. The raising and lowering of the indicator rod 344 is used to visually observe whether the disc block 343 has fallen. The limiting groove 35 is used to engage the limiting rod 334. When the filter element 33 moves down to a certain extent, the limiting rod 334 on the filter element 33 will engage with the limiting groove 35 under the action of the spring 332. The top of the threaded cover 341 is provided with a handle for easy rotation.
[0030] A circulation inner tube 22 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the circulation outer tube sleeve 21. The inner wall of the circulation inner tube 22 is in communication with the inner wall of the circulation outer tube sleeve 21. The outer wall of the circulation inner tube 22 is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting pipe 23. The other end of the connecting pipe 23 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the circulation outer tube sleeve 21. A heating element 24 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting pipe 23. The heating element 24 is used to heat water. The heating element 24 is a circulating heating water pump that can circulate and heat water.
[0031] When using the mattress with water circulation heating function of this utility model, the heating element 24 is turned on. The heating element 24 drives the water that has just been heated in the connecting pipe 23 into the inner circulation pipe 22. The hot water in the inner circulation pipe 22 moves to the side away from the connecting pipe 23 and then enters the outer circulation pipe sleeve 21. Figure 4As shown, the hot water then moves back through the outer circulation sleeve 21 and enters the connecting pipe 23, then into the heating element 24 for heating. The newly heated hot water encounters the circulating hot water at the connection point of the outer circulation sleeve 21 and the inner circulation pipe 22. The newly heated hot water heats the circulating hot water. Due to the double-layered pipe design of the outer circulation sleeve 21 and the inner circulation pipe 22, the water entering sequentially encounters each other and transfers heat. When the hot water meets the already circulated water, heat is transferred from the hotter water to the colder water through convection and heat conduction. Because the entire piping system is designed with this alternating heating and heat transfer process, the hot water temperature inside the mattress 1 can remain uniform, preventing overheating or cooling in certain areas. This ensures a uniform heating effect across the entire mattress 1, making the heat distribution more even, and thus making the water temperature throughout the system more consistent. This avoids heat concentrating in a certain area, preventing localized overheating and improving user comfort and experience.
[0032] Hot water from the connecting pipe 23 enters the connecting member 31 and passes through the filter screen 333 within the connecting member 31, where the water is filtered. When the filter screen 333 contains a lot of impurities, the resistance to the water passing through the filter screen 333 increases, and the reaction force on the filter screen 333 also increases. This causes the filter screen 333 to compress the first spring 332, which in turn causes the filter screen 333 to disengage the limiting rod 334 from the limiting groove 35. At this point, the second spring 342 drives the disc block 34. 3. Moving downwards, the disc block 343 pushes the filter element 33 downwards, causing the spare filter element 33 at the top of the filter element 33 to move downwards until the limiting rod 334 of the spare filter element 33 engages with the limiting groove 35 under the action of the spring 332. At this point, the automatic replacement of the filter element 33 is completed. Simultaneously, the disc block 343 moves the indicator rod 344 downwards, causing the indicator rod 344 to retract into the threaded cover 341. The user can then observe this and unscrew the threaded cover 341 to replace the new spare filter element 33. This eliminates the need for manual cleaning of the filter screen; the user can easily replace the filter element 33 by observing the indicator rod 344.
