Description

[0001] The present invention relates to a hybrid premium mattress from the field of sleep and upholstery systems. The mattress is specifically designed to provide ergonomic support for the human body during sleep and allows for individual adjustment of the firmness in selected body zones. General structure of the mattresses

[0002] The mattress is made of either cold foam or innerspring and features a multi-zone sleeping surface structure. Preferably, the mattress is divided into a so-called 7-zone division, with different zones designed to support various body areas such as the head, shoulders, lumbar region, hips, thighs, lower legs, and feet.

[0003] The mattress's base can consist of a cold foam core, a spring core, or a combination of both. The individual zones can differ in material, firmness, elasticity, or geometry. Air comfort elements in the shoulder and hip area

[0004] In the shoulder area of ​​the mattress, at least one air comfort element in the form of a TPU air core is positioned. Additionally, at least one further air comfort element, also in the form of a TPU air core, is provided in the hip area. The air cores are integrated into corresponding recesses or chambers within the mattress core and secured in place.

[0005] The TPU air cores are designed as flexible, airtight chambers made of thermoplastic polyurethane. They are designed to change their shape and strength when pressurized with air and to elastically deform back when the pressure is released. Control and adjustment of the firmness of the lie

[0006] The air cores located in the shoulder area and the air cores located in the hip area are each connected to a compressor. The compressor is used to inflate and deflate the respective air cores.

[0007] A control unit is located between the compressor and the air cores, regulating the air supply and pressure in each individual air core. The control unit is designed so that the air cores in the shoulder area can be controlled independently of the air cores in the hip area.

[0008] This makes it possible to adjust the firmness of the mattress separately and individually in the shoulder and hip areas. The setting can be adapted, for example, to different body weights, body shapes, or sleeping positions.

[0009] The control unit is preferably operated via a remote control. Alternatively or additionally, it can be controlled via controls on the mattress or via an external control unit. Mattress cover and moisture management

[0010] The mattress has a removable cover that completely encloses the mattress core. A special, washable virgin wool filling is quilted into the cover.

[0011] The virgin wool is specially treated to absorb moisture and release it back into the environment under suitable conditions. This reduces or prevents moisture build-up within the mattress, contributing to an improved sleeping environment and enhanced hygiene. Advantages of the invention

[0012] The described design of the mattress provides an ergonomically optimized lying surface that can be individually adjusted to the user. In particular, the independent adjustment of the firmness in the shoulder and hip areas allows for targeted pressure relief in these body zones.

[0013] Furthermore, the use of TPU air cores contributes to a high level of sleeping comfort and a long mattress lifespan. The integrated moisture management system, thanks to the special mattress cover, improves the sleeping environment and increases user comfort.
