Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of spring technology, and in particular to a novel S-spring. Background Technology

[0002] With industrial development and improved living standards, consumers have higher demands for the support, comfort, and anti-interference capabilities of mattress springs. However, traditional springs have significant shortcomings in several key areas, severely limiting their further application in the mattress industry. In terms of support, they struggle to accurately adapt to the pressure needs of different parts of the body, failing to provide comprehensive and effective support, and long-term use may harm spinal health. Regarding comfort, traditional springs are less effective at conforming to the body's curves, easily causing excessive pressure on certain areas during sleep and reducing sleep quality. Weak anti-interference capability is another major drawback; when multiple people use the mattress, the vibrations from one person turning over can easily be transmitted throughout the entire mattress, disturbing others' sleep. Furthermore, some traditional springs are quite heavy, increasing the overall weight of the mattress, making transportation and installation inconvenient, and also putting greater pressure on the bed structure. Therefore, improvements are needed to address these issues. Utility Model Content

[0016] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0017] Example: See Figure 1-4 This utility model discloses a novel S-spring, comprising a first steel ring 1 and a second steel ring 2. The first steel ring 1 is located at the upper end of the second steel ring 2. Multiple sets of equidistant elastic components are disposed inside the first steel ring 1 and the second steel ring 2. Connecting components are provided between adjacent elastic components, and connecting components are also provided between the elastic components and the first steel ring 1 and the second steel ring 2. The first steel ring 1 and the second steel ring 2 facilitate overall support and fixation, providing an installation base for the internal elastic components and connecting components, and ensuring the overall structural form of the first spring 4 and the second spring 5. The elastic components include a first S-shaped spring 3 disposed inside the first steel ring 1, and a second S-shaped spring 6 disposed inside the second steel ring 2. A connecting component is provided at each end between the first S-shaped spring 3 and the second S-shaped spring 6. The first spring 4 and the second spring 5 are connected by the first S-shaped spring 3 and the second S-shaped spring 6 to facilitate deformation under stress to absorb energy and return to their original shape after unloading, providing basic elastic performance for the first spring 4 and the second spring 5. The two ends of the first spring 4 and the second spring 5 are fixed to the first S-shaped spring 3 and the second S-shaped spring 6 respectively, and the first spring 4 and the second spring 5 rotate in opposite directions. The first spring 4 and the second spring 5 facilitate coordinated deformation of the whole in the vertical direction, enhancing the overall elastic effect. The opposite rotation of the first spring 4 and the second spring 5 can cancel out some of the torsional force when under stress, reducing the torsional deformation of the first spring 4 and the second spring 5, and improving the stability and service life of the first spring 4 and the second spring 5.

[0018] In this invention, adjacent first S-shaped springs 3 are connected by a connecting assembly, adjacent second S-shaped springs 6 are connected by a connecting assembly, the first S-shaped spring 3 is connected to the first steel ring 1 by a connecting assembly, and the second S-shaped spring 6 is connected to the second steel ring 2 by a connecting assembly. The connecting assembly includes a connecting block 7, an arc-shaped connecting plate 8, and a limiting plate 9. Multiple connecting blocks 7 are respectively installed on the first S-shaped spring 3 and the second S-shaped spring 6. One end of the arc-shaped connecting plate 8 is movably hinged to the connecting block 7, and the other end of the arc-shaped connecting plate 8 is fixedly connected to the limiting plate 9. Multiple equidistant limiting strips are installed on the surface of the limiting plate 9 close to the connecting block 7. The adjacent surfaces of the position plate 9 are provided with corresponding limiting grooves; the connecting block 7 facilitates the connection between the connecting component and the elastic component, and provides an installation point for the arc-shaped connecting plate 8; the arc-shaped connecting plate 8 facilitates the connection between adjacent elastic components and the elastic component with the first steel ring 1 or the second steel ring 2, ensuring the integrity of the structure of the first spring 4 and the second spring 5 and avoiding the dispersion of the components; the limiting plate 9 facilitates the restriction of the relative position of the connecting block 7 and the arc-shaped connecting plate 8, preventing excessive rotation or displacement and ensuring the stability of the connection; the raw material of the spring is selected from high-strength, high-elasticity alloy steel with excellent fatigue resistance, ensuring that the spring has good basic performance.

[0019] Working Principle: When this invention is used, if the device is subjected to external pressure, the pressure is transmitted to multiple sets of internal elastic components through the first steel ring 1 and the second steel ring 2. Due to their S-shaped structure, the first S-shaped spring 3 and the second S-shaped spring 6 will deform first to absorb some of the pressure. Simultaneously, the first spring 4 and the second spring 5 connected between them will be compressed. Since the first spring 4 and the second spring 5 rotate in opposite directions, the torsional forces they generate during compression can cancel each other out, effectively preventing the first spring 4 and the second spring 5 from twisting and deforming as a whole, ensuring uniform force distribution. During the deformation of the elastic components, the connecting components play a role in stabilizing the structure. Adjacent first S-shaped springs 3, adjacent second S-shaped springs 6, and the elastic components connected to the first steel ring 1 and the second steel ring 2 are connected by the connecting components. The arc-shaped connecting plate 8, being hinged to the connecting block 7, can move with the deformation of the elastic components. The adaptive rotation ensures that the components will not detach due to excessive relative displacement. At the same time, the limiting strip on the limiting plate 9 and the limiting groove on the connecting block 7 interlock to limit excessive movement of the components, further enhancing the stability of the connection and preventing the elastic components from becoming loose or misaligned when subjected to force deformation. When a part in the elastic component is damaged, simply pry the limiting plate 9 in the connecting component outward to separate the adjacent elastic components and the elastic components from the first steel ring 1 and the second steel ring 2, thereby removing the damaged elastic component and installing a new elastic component.

[0020] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
