Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bedding, specifically to an adapter box. Background Technology
[0002] Existing beds include a bed frame and a mattress. The mattress includes a mattress body, functional components mounted on the mattress body, an adapter box mounted on the surface of the mattress body, and a control box mounted on the bed frame. The functional components are connected to the adapter box via wires, and the adapter box is connected to the control box via wires, enabling the functional components to operate according to commands sent by the control box. The bed frame includes a deformable motorized slatted frame, which drives the mattress to deform through movement. For ease of handling and maintenance, the wires on the adapter box can be detached from the control box. However, the following problems still exist: the wires are pulled when the mattress deforms, causing them to fail to detach due to insufficient connection strength with the adapter box, resulting in a break in the connection between the functional components and the control box, affecting the user experience. In addition, the wires are exposed in the adapter box after being separated from the control box, making them susceptible to damage due to exposure and failing to provide protection for the wires. Utility Model Content
[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides an adapter box and mattress, which uses a wire clamping plate and a fixing shell to clamp the wires, preventing the wires from detaching from the adapter box, enhancing connection reliability, and improving the user experience.
[0004] This utility model is achieved through the following method: an adapter box includes a housing and a wire. The housing includes a fixed shell and a clamping plate. The clamping plate is fixed to the fixed shell by fasteners and clamps the wire to prevent the wire from detaching from the housing. The housing includes a fixed shell and a clamping plate, which are fixed to and clamp the wire, ensuring that the wire is securely installed on the housing, preventing the wire from detaching from the adapter box, enhancing connection reliability, and improving the user experience.
[0005] Preferably, the top surface of the clamping plate has a recessed, through-type lower clamping groove, and the surface of the fixing shell has upper clamping grooves that correspond one-to-one with the lower clamping grooves. The fixing shell is fixed to the clamping plate and clamps the wire through the vertically corresponding upper and lower clamping grooves. The lower and upper clamping grooves are vertically aligned and clamp the wire, ensuring that the wire will not be subjected to excessive force and will not undergo local compression deformation or even breakage, ensuring that the wire has reliable conductivity, and also ensuring that the surface of the wire can match and fit the upper and lower clamping grooves, thereby increasing the contact area and improving the reliability of clamping.
[0006] Preferably, both the upper and lower clamping slots are semi-circular, and the width of the slot openings is smaller than the diameter of the conductor. The upper and lower clamping slots are stacked facing each other and enclose a circular hole, through which the conductor is inserted. By reducing the gap between the hole and the conductor, the conductor is clamped and protected.
[0007] Preferably, the upper and lower clamping grooves have raised anti-slip ribs formed within their groove walls. These anti-slip ribs can be embedded in the surface of the wire, increasing the contact area and enhancing the clamping force, thus effectively improving the anti-pulling performance.
[0008] Preferably, the clamping plate is provided with at least two separate lower clamping slots, and the two ends and the middle of the clamping plate are provided with mounting holes that are offset from the lower clamping slots. Fasteners pass through the mounting holes and are screwed and locked to the fixing shell so that the lower clamping slots and the upper clamping slots approach each other and clamp the corresponding wires.
[0009] Preferably, the fixing shell has a storage slot with a front opening, and a clamping surface at the front opening. The wire clamping plate is attached to and fixed to the clamping surface and clamps the wire, so that the wire is hidden in the storage slot. The storage slot is used to store the wire, so that the wire is not exposed when confined, thus providing shielding and protection for the wire. The wire clamping plate is located at the front opening of the storage slot, which clamps and positions the wire passing through the storage slot, ensuring that the wire is firmly connected to the shell and hidden in the storage slot.
[0010] Preferably, the storage slot includes a downward-facing, exposed lower slot, and the housing includes a cover plate. The cover plate is mounted on the front wall of the fixed housing and seals the front slot, allowing the wires to be exposed through the lower slot. The wires are inserted into the storage slot through the front slot, and then extend outward through the lower slot to connect to the control box. This facilitates both connection and use, and also allows the storage slot to conveniently store the wires that have been removed from the control box.
[0011] Preferably, the fixed end of the conductor is clamped and fixed by the clamping plate and the fixing shell, and the middle section is in a retractable spiral shape, so that the movable end of the conductor can extend and retract through the lower slot and connect to the outside. The spiral shape of the middle section of the conductor can be extended by stretching and can also be hidden in the storage slot by retracting and returning to its original position, which is convenient for use.
[0012] A mattress includes a mattress body with functional components and an adapter box. A wire's fixed end extends into the mattress body and connects to the functional components, while its middle portion is clamped and fixed by the adapter box. The movable end protrudes from the adapter box and connects to the outside. The adapter box has clamped and fixed wires that can connect to a control box to ensure the control box can control the functional components, and can also detach from the control box and be hidden in a storage slot, providing protection and concealment for the wires.
[0013] Preferably, the functional component is a sensing strip laid on the top surface of the mat to detect the user's physiological data and lying posture; the functional component is a heating pad laid on the top surface of the mat to provide heat to the user; the functional component is a button set on the side wall of the mat so that the control box can receive instructions from the user and facilitate the user to control the operation of each functional component.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The housing includes a fixed shell and a wire clamping plate. The wire clamping plate and the fixed shell are fixedly connected and clamp the wire, ensuring that the wire is firmly installed on the housing, preventing the wire from detaching from the adapter box, enhancing connection reliability, and improving the user experience.

[0023] The essential features of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0024] Example 1:
[0025] This embodiment provides an adapter box.
[0026] like Figure 1 and 2An adapter box is shown, comprising a housing and a wire 1. The housing includes a fixing shell 2 and a clamping plate 3. The clamping plate 3 is fixed to the fixing shell 2 by fasteners and clamps the wire 1 to prevent the wire 1 from detaching from the housing. The housing, including the fixing shell 2 and the clamping plate 3, securely clamps the wire 1, ensuring that the wire 1 is firmly installed on the housing, preventing the wire 1 from detaching from the adapter box 12, enhancing connection reliability, and improving the user experience.
[0027] In this embodiment, the adapter box 12 is used for the transfer between the control box and the functional components. It facilitates separation by disconnecting the wire 1 for easy transportation, and also facilitates connection between the functional components and the control box via the wire 1 for easy use.
[0028] In this embodiment, the housing includes a fixed shell 2 and a clamping plate 3. The top surface of the clamping plate 3 has a recessed lower clamping groove 4 that extends in a wide direction. The surface of the fixed shell 2 is provided with upper clamping grooves 5 that correspond one-to-one with the lower clamping grooves 4. The fixed shell 2 is fixedly connected to the clamping plate 3 and the wire 1 is clamped by the vertically corresponding upper clamping grooves 5 and lower clamping grooves 4. During installation, firstly, the fixed end of the wire 1 is placed in the upper clamping groove 5; then, the clamping plate 3 is attached to the fixed shell 2 from bottom to top, with the upper clamping grooves 5 and lower clamping grooves 4 aligned and clamping the wire 1; finally, the clamping plate 3 is fixedly connected to the fixed shell 2 by fasteners.
[0029] After installation, the fixed end of the wire 1 is firmly clamped between the wire clamping plate 3 and the fixed shell 2, while the middle section and the movable end are hidden in the storage groove 8. When needed, the movable end can be pulled to connect to the control box for easy use.
[0030] In this embodiment, both the upper clamping groove 5 and the lower clamping groove 4 are semi-circular, and the width of the groove openings of the upper clamping groove 5 and the lower clamping groove 4 is smaller than the diameter of the conductor 1. Anti-slip ribs 6 are formed within the groove walls of the upper clamping groove 5 and the lower clamping groove 4 by raised ridges (e.g., Figure 4 (As shown). During installation, the upper clamping groove 5 and the lower clamping groove 4 form a cylindrical hole through which the wire 1 passes, ensuring that the inner wall of the hole matches and fits the outer wall of the wire 1. The anti-slip rib 6 can be embedded in the wire 1, which can not only increase the contact area between the hole and the wire 1, but also increase the force of tightening the wire 1 and prevent the fixed end from detaching from the shell.
[0031] In this embodiment, the clamping plate 3 is provided with at least two separate lower clamping slots 4. The clamping plate 3 has mounting holes 7 at both ends and in the middle that are offset from the lower clamping slots 4. Fasteners pass through the mounting holes 7 and are screwed and locked to the fixing shell 2, so that the lower clamping slots 4 and upper clamping slots 5 approach each other and clamp the corresponding wires 1. The fasteners passing through the mounting holes 7 and being screwed and locked to the fixing shell 2 ensure that each set of corresponding upper clamping slots 5, after being aligned and stacked, can be screwed and locked by the fasteners located on both sides, thereby ensuring that each wire 1 is effectively clamped.
[0032] In this embodiment, the fixed housing 2 is provided with a storage groove 8 with a front slot. A clamping surface is provided at the front slot. The wire clamping plate 3 is attached to and fixed to the clamping surface, clamping the wire 1 so that the wire 1 is hidden within the storage groove 8. The storage groove 8 within the fixed housing 2 is used to store the wire 1, providing protection and concealment. The storage groove 8 includes a downward-facing lower slot 9. The housing includes a cover plate 10, which is installed on the front wall of the fixed housing 2 and seals the front slot, allowing the wire 1 to be exposed through the lower slot 9. The storage groove 8 includes a front slot and a lower slot 9. The fixed end is fixed to the front slot, facilitating the extension of the fixed end of the wire 1 outward and connection to the corresponding device. The movable end is hidden within the storage groove 8 and can be stretched outward through the lower slot 9 to connect to the corresponding device when needed, facilitating both disassembly and storage, as well as easy extension and connection.
[0033] In this embodiment, the fixed end of the conductor 1 is clamped and fixed by the clamping plate 3 and the fixing shell 2, and the middle section is in a retractable spiral shape (e.g., Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the movable end of the wire 1 can extend and retract through the lower slot 9 and connect to the outside. The spiral structure can effectively reduce the length of the middle section of the wire 1, so that the wire 1 can be retracted into the storage slot 8 through the recovery deformation, thus protecting and hiding the wire 1. It can also make it easy for the wire 1 to be extended by stretching, thereby facilitating the connection between the adapter box 12 and the control box.
[0034] Example 2:
[0035] Compared to Embodiment 1, this embodiment provides a mattress.
[0036] like Figure 5 , 6As shown in Figure 7, a mattress includes a mattress body 11, on which functional components and an adapter box 12 are provided. The fixed end of the wire 1 extends into the mattress body 11 and connects to the functional components, while the middle part is clamped and fixed by the adapter box 12. The movable end is exposed outside the adapter box 12 and connected to the outside. The adapter box 12 is provided with a clamped and fixed wire 1. The wire 1 can be connected to a control box to ensure that the control box can control the functional components, and can also be detached from the control box and hidden in a storage slot 8, which protects and conceals the wire 1.
[0037] In this embodiment, the functional components are a sensing strip 13 laid on the top surface of the pad 11, a heating element 14 laid on the top surface of the pad 11, and a button 15 disposed on the side wall of the pad 11. The functional components can be one or more types, and the number of a single type of functional component can be increased or decreased according to the usage requirements. All of these should be considered as specific implementation methods of this embodiment.
[0038] The other structures and effects of the adapter box 12 described in this embodiment are the same as those in Embodiment 1, and will not be repeated here.
