Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mat technology, specifically a mat that can conform to the user's body shape. Background Technology

[0002] A mattress, typically placed on a bed frame, is a cushion-like piece of furniture primarily designed to provide a comfortable sleep experience. Mattresses come in a variety of designs and materials, allowing for selection based on individual needs and preferences. A mattress supports the body's weight, ensuring the spine maintains its natural curve during sleep, reducing pressure points, and thus helping to prevent back pain and improve sleep quality.

[0003] However, in the medical field, maintaining the correct body position is crucial during surgery or rehabilitation. Ordinary cushions cannot provide adaptive support for the patient's body, and other items such as pillows or blankets are often needed to support the patient's body. These items may also shift during the support process, leading to poor patient comfort and affecting postoperative recovery.

[0004] To address the aforementioned technical problems, Chinese utility model patent CN213332171U discloses an inflatable cushioning pad for shock absorption in electronic devices. Specifically, it includes an upper inflatable layer, a honeycomb-shaped elastic plate, a lower inflatable layer, a coil spring, and a fixing block. An inflation column is installed at the bottom of each upper inflatable layer, and the lower inflatable layer is installed at the bottom of each inflation column. The top and bottom of the inflation column penetrate both the upper and lower inflatable layers. A first connecting block is installed on one sidewall of both the upper and lower inflatable layers, and a second connecting block is installed on the side of each upper and lower inflatable layer away from the first connecting block. Both the second and first connecting blocks have mounting holes inside. An inflation valve is installed at the top of the upper inflatable layer, and the inner sidewall of the inflation valve has grooves, etc. This inflatable pad provides support by inflating the entire pad through the upper and lower inflatable layers. However, since different body positions may require different support positions in actual use, that is, the adjustment height of the mat is different, the above-mentioned inflatable mat can only be fully inflated and raised, which still cannot meet the user's needs, affects the user experience, and is not conducive to the promotion and application of the above-mentioned mat in the market. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to overcome the defects in the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a mat that can conform to the user's body shape. The mat has a clever structure and is easy to operate. It can be inflated in sections according to the user's body shape, thereby adjusting the height of different sections to support different parts of the body, ensuring the support effect, enhancing the user experience, and facilitating the promotion and application of the above-mentioned mat in the market.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned utility model objectives, the present utility model adopts the following technical solution: a mat that can conform to the user's body shape, including a mat body; the mat body has multiple inflatable chambers that can deform when inflated by an external inflation device, and the multiple inflatable chambers are independently arranged; each inflatable chamber has an inflation tube sealed at its inflation port that can be connected to an external inflation device, and the inflation tube opening is provided with an inflation tube sealing assembly, the number of inflation tube sealing assemblies being adapted to the number of inflation tubes.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the air tube sealing assembly includes a sealing connector and a sealing plug, wherein the sealing connector is sealed to the air tube, and the sealing plug is sealed and installed inside the sealing connector.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the sealing connector plug and the sealing connector head are screwed together.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the sealing connector has an ergonomically designed knob.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, an inflation strip is provided at the opening of the inflation tube, and an opening is provided on the side of the inflation strip and an inflation strip sealing assembly is provided at the opening; the inflation strip encloses the openings of the plurality of inflation tubes inside, and the knob part of the inflation tube sealing assembly passes through the inflation strip and is located outside the inflation strip.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the mat body is covered with a protective layer, which can change with the deformation of the inflation cavity.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the protective layer has heat dissipation holes.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the inflation tube extends from the inflation port of the inflation chamber to the body of the mat.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the inflation tube is a flexible tube.

[0015] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the inflation chamber is arranged along the length of the mat body.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The mat in this utility model can conform to the user's body shape.

[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model is described below with reference to specific embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. However, it should be understood that these descriptions are merely exemplary and not intended to limit the scope of the present utility model. Furthermore, descriptions of well-known structures and technologies are omitted in the following description to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the concept of the present utility model.

[0024] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that the terms "center", "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0025] The embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] Example 1: As Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a mat that conforms to the user's body shape includes a mat body 1. The specific shape of the mat body 1 is not limited here; it can be rectangular, elliptical, or other shapes, and can be customized as needed. To solve the problem that existing mats can only be inflated as a whole and cannot meet the user's needs, the mat body 1 in this embodiment has multiple inflation chambers 2 that deform when inflated by an external inflation device. To achieve different heights for the different inflation chambers 2, the multiple inflation chambers 2 are set independently, that is, they are not connected to each other and do not allow air to pass through. This requires the use of a well-sealed isolation cloth or similar material between the inflation chambers 2. To enable inflation of each of the inflation chambers 2, an inflation pipe 3 is sealed at the inflation port of each inflation chamber 2, which can be connected to an external inflation device. At the same time, the gas inside the inflation chamber 2 can be discharged outward through the inflation pipe 3, thus achieving both inflation and deflating functions.

[0027] To prevent the inflation tube 3 from venting gas when it is not needed, and to ensure that the inflation chamber 2 has a sufficient amount of gas, an inflation tube sealing assembly 4 is provided at the opening of the inflation tube 3 in this embodiment. The number of inflation tube sealing assemblies 4 is adapted to the number of inflation tubes 3, that is, each inflation tube 3 corresponds to one inflation tube sealing assembly 4, thereby realizing independent control of the gas volume of each inflation chamber 2. In this process, it is also necessary to ensure that the connection between the inflation tube 3 and the inflation chamber 2 can be reliably sealed to prevent gas leakage and to ensure that the inflation tube 3 can be safely and stably connected to external inflation equipment. The inflation tube sealing assembly 4 includes a sealing connector 4-1 and a sealing plug 4-2. The sealing connector 4-1 is sealed to the inflation tube 3, and the sealing plug 4-2 is sealed and installed inside the sealing connector 4-1. The above structure is simple and has low manufacturing cost, thereby reducing the user's usage cost and expanding the market share of the mat.

[0028] The aforementioned sealing plug 4-2 is made of rubber and screws onto the aforementioned sealing connector 4-1. This design primarily ensures the airtightness of the inflation port, preventing gas leakage, and also facilitates disassembly and maintenance. Due to its excellent elasticity and sealing properties, the rubber material can tightly bond with the connector to form an effective seal. Furthermore, the flexibility of rubber allows the sealing plug 4-2 to adapt to different connection conditions during screwing, ensuring a stable connection. The screw-on design also allows for quick disassembly when replacement or maintenance is required, improving operational convenience.

[0029] To improve user comfort and operational efficiency, the aforementioned sealing connector 4-2 features an ergonomically designed knob 4-3 for easy user operation. The ergonomic design takes into account the physiological, psychological, and cognitive characteristics of the human body, optimizing the product's shape, size, weight, and operation method to ensure a comfortable and natural user experience.

[0030] For ease of cleaning and maintenance, the mat body 1 is covered with a removable protective layer 7. This protective layer 7 can be designed as a cover and secured to the mat body 1 via a zipper or straps. Made of an elastic material, the protective layer 7 adapts to the deformation of the inflation chamber 2, ensuring a tight fit to the mat body 1 and maintaining its integrity and functionality as the inflation chamber 2 inflates or deflates. The elastic material typically possesses good elasticity and resilience, providing appropriate tension during inflation chamber 2 deformation to prevent the protective layer 7 from tearing due to excessive stretching or wrinkling when the inflation chamber 2 contracts. Furthermore, the elastic protective layer effectively absorbs and disperses external impact forces, enhancing the mat's durability and lifespan.

[0031] To facilitate direct connection of the inflation tube 3 to external inflation equipment and reduce operational difficulty, the inflation tube 3 extends from the inflation port of the inflation chamber 2 to the outside of the mat body 1. To extend the service life of the inflation tube 3, thus ensuring the service life of the mat and reducing operating costs, in this embodiment, the inflation tube 3 is a flexible hose made of rubber. Rubber is flexible, durable, and adaptable to different working environments and operating conditions, while also effectively resisting wear and aging, extending the product's service life. Furthermore, the rubber hose is easy to bend and install, allowing for convenient connection to inflation equipment and providing a flexible inflation solution. The mat body 1 is made of PVC material. PVC material has high mechanical strength and wear resistance, capable of withstanding wear during daily use, and is easy to process and mold, reducing manufacturing costs and facilitating the promotion and application of the mat in the market.

[0032] In this embodiment, the air chambers 2 are arranged along the length of the mat body 1, and there can be three air chambers 2. Since the length of the mat body 1 is usually customized according to the height of an adult or a child, the three air chambers 3 can effectively support the user's head, waist, and legs. The spacing between the air chambers 2 can be customized as needed. To further enhance the user experience and prevent the user from falling during use, inflatable anti-fall parts can also be provided along the edge of the mat body 1, which can act as a barrier.

[0033] This embodiment presents a mat that can conform to the user's body shape. The mat has an ingenious structure. By dividing the interior of the mat body 1 into multiple independent air chambers 2, each air chamber 2 can be individually inflated using an external inflation device. Compared with the overall inflation in the prior art, this design can enhance the user's comfort during use and is conducive to the promotion and application of the above-mentioned mat in the market.

[0034] Example 2: This example differs from Example 1 in that: In this example, a mat that conforms to the user's body shape allows for simultaneous inflation of different inflation chambers 2. An inflation strip 5 is provided at the opening of the inflation tube 3. The side of the inflation strip 5 has an opening with an inflation strip sealing assembly 6. The inflation strip 5 encloses the openings of multiple inflation tubes 3 within itself. The knob 4-3 of the inflation tube sealing assembly 4 passes through the inflation strip 5 and is located outside it. This process requires only one inflation device to simultaneously inflate different inflation chambers 2. When a certain inflation chamber 2 has reached the required inflation volume and height, the corresponding inflation tube sealing assembly 4 can be sealed at the inflation port of that chamber 2 without affecting the inflation of other inflation chambers 2. This improves inflation efficiency while reducing the use of inflation devices and lowering operational difficulty. To improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the mat body 1 during use, the protective layer 7 has heat dissipation holes 7-1. When the inflation chamber 2 is inflated, if heat is generated, these heat dissipation holes 7-1 allow the heat to dissipate through the protective layer 7, thereby preventing localized overheating and ensuring the comfort and functionality of the mat. Furthermore, the design of the heat dissipation holes 7-1 also increases airflow, further enhancing the heat dissipation effect.

[0035] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to make or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention; therefore, the present invention is not to be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.

[0036] Although this document frequently uses reference numerals from the figures, such as 1. mat body; 2. inflation chamber; 3. inflation tube; 4. inflation tube sealing assembly; 4-1. sealing connector; 4-2. sealing plug; 4-3. knob; 5. inflation strip; 6. inflation strip sealing assembly; 7. protective layer; and 7-1. heat dissipation hole, the possibility of using other terms is not excluded. These terms are used merely for the convenience of describing and explaining the essence of this utility model; interpreting them as any additional limitation would contradict the spirit of this utility model.
