Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of furniture, and in particular to a balancing cushion for a resilient module, a resilient cushion and furniture. [Background technology]

[0002] Furniture such as beds are an essential component of people's lives. Most large pieces of furniture in the prior art are not easy to disassemble or are difficult to reassemble after disassembly. However, with the development of modern life, in order to meet the needs of population movement and outdoor recreation, furniture such as beds in particular need to be disassembled and reassembled more frequently. During transportation, since disassembly and assembly of beds is very difficult, still usable furniture is often discarded to reduce the burden of transportation.

[0003] A bed generally consists of a bed frame, an elastic cushion and a cover, and the elastic cushion in the prior art is generally a one-piece, non-detachable, one-piece cushion formed by multiple overlapping layers and springs, which is large in size and difficult to remove and store.

[0004] Prior art mattresses with individually packaged springs aim to prevent two or more people sleeping on the same bed from interfering with each other (e.g., when there is a relatively large difference in weight between individuals, one person's tossing or body movement cannot prevent the other person from being affected). In such mattresses, each spring is individually packaged in a bag or sleeve made of nonwoven fabric or other material. After the spring bags are arranged, a one-piece sponge rubber is attached to the outside of the set of arranged spring bags by adhesive or glue, etc., to form a furniture cushion or a required spring cushion in the form of a furniture cushion. However, individually packaged spring mattresses are still one-piece products that cannot be removed and are difficult to transport. Furthermore, in individually packaged spring mattresses, the nonwoven fabric covering the packaged springs is adhesively connected to each other, and when the mattress is pressed down, the packaged springs cannot achieve complete independent vertical movement, which affects the comfort of the mattress.

[0005] Furthermore, the mattresses of the prior art also have the drawback of being difficult to clean. While the cover of a typical mattress is usually removable, the sponge portion is not removable, making it difficult to clean. While latex has a certain degree of dust mite prevention effect, the sponge portion, which is difficult to clean, has a significant impact on hygiene when a mattress is generally used for several years. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0006] In response to at least some of the problems present in the prior art described above, it is an object of the present invention to provide a resilient cushion with better comfort.

[0007] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a balancing cushion for an elastic module, which includes a base plate and a plurality of position limiting bodies, the plurality of position limiting bodies being protruded at intervals on a plate surface on one side of the base plate, the plurality of position limiting bodies defining a plurality of storage spaces spaced apart from each other, and the plurality of storage spaces being capable of storing corresponding elastic modules in an elastic base, thereby constraining the movement of the elastic modules in the lateral direction of the base plate.

[0008] In this technical solution, the multiple limiting members protrude at intervals from one side of the base plate, defining multiple storage spaces spaced apart from one another, each configured to accommodate a corresponding elastic module in the elastic base and restrict movement of the elastic modules in the lateral direction of the base plate. Thus, when the elastic module balancing cushion is assembled to form an elastic cushion, it can be placed on an elastic base having multiple elastic modules, with a portion of each elastic module stored in its corresponding storage space. The lateral buffering and limiting functions of the limiting members effectively restrict movement of each elastic module in the lateral direction (i.e., the direction parallel to the base plate), thereby effectively preventing tilting of each elastic module due to the biasing force and efficiently maintaining the support stability of each elastic module. Therefore, when the elastic module balancing cushion is placed on an elastic base, it restricts movement of each elastic module in the lateral direction, thereby efficiently improving the stability of the elastic cushion when subjected to pressure and providing better comfort.

[0009] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the position limiter has a cross-sectional dimension that gradually decreases in a direction away from the base plate so that the internal dimension of the storage space gradually decreases in a direction approaching the base plate.

[0015] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the flexible sleeve is a nonwoven tube and the base plate is a nonwoven plate.

[0016] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the elastic element has one end connected to the plate surface and the other end connected to an end closure cap at one end of the flexible sleeve away from the plate surface so that the elastic element is in a pre-compressed state.

[0017] According to one embodiment of the invention, the outer peripheral contour of the elastic element abuts against the inner peripheral surface of the flexible sleeve.

[0018] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the elastic element is a spring.

[0019] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the position limiting body includes a plurality of first position limiting bodies and a plurality of second position limiting bodies, wherein each of the storage spaces is partitioned by a plurality of the first position limiting bodies and a plurality of the second position limiting bodies arranged alternately in sequence, and wherein each of the first position limiting bodies is surrounded by the second position limiting bodies in the surrounding plurality of the storage spaces.

[0020] According to one embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of first-row position limiting bodies and a plurality of second-row position limiting bodies are installed on the plate surface on one side of the base plate, the first-row position limiting bodies including a plurality of first position limiting bodies and a plurality of second position limiting bodies arranged alternately in order in the row direction, and each of the second-row position limiting bodies including a plurality of second position limiting bodies arranged at a pitch in the row direction, the pitch becoming one second position limiting body, and each of the second position limiting bodies among the second-row position limiting bodies being aligned in the column direction with each of the first position limiting bodies located in an adjacent row so that the pitch becomes the storage space.

[0021] The present invention also provides an elastic cushion, which includes an elastic base including a plurality of elastic modules and any of the above-described balancing cushions for elastic modules, wherein the balancing cushion for elastic modules is placed on the elastic base, and a plurality of the elastic modules are stored in the corresponding storage spaces, and wherein the position limiting body can restrict the movement of the elastic modules in the lateral direction.

[0022] As described above, when the balancing cushion for the elastic modules is laid on the elastic base, it restrains the movement of each elastic module in the lateral direction, thereby effectively improving the stability of the elastic cushion when subjected to pressure, and the elastic cushion has better comfort.

[0023] According to one embodiment of the invention, the elastic module is frustoconical in shape and is in contact with at least one of the position limiters in the form of a frustoconical body.

[0024] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the elastic cushion further includes a flexible pad and a cover, wherein the flexible pad is placed on the base plate, and the cover covers the flexible pad and encases at least a portion of the elastic base, the elastic module balancing cushion, and the flexible pad.

[0025] Finally, the present invention provides furniture, said furniture including any of the resilient cushions described above, which has significantly improved comfort.

[0026] The furniture includes, but is not limited to, mattresses, sofas, chairs, sofa beds, benches, etc.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0030] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. Only preferred embodiments of the present invention are described here, and those skilled in the art may conceive of other ways in which the present invention can be realized based on the preferred embodiments, and such other ways also fall within the scope of the present invention.

[0031] 1, 2 and 3 exemplarily show a counterbalance cushion 13 for an elastic module according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Referring to Fig. 1, 2 and 3, the counterbalance cushion 13 for an elastic module provided by the present invention includes a base plate 1 and a plurality of position limiters 2, the plurality of position limiters 2 are protruding at intervals from one plate surface of the base plate 1, for example, the base plate 1 includes a first plate surface and a second plate surface facing each other in the thickness direction of the base plate, the plurality of position limiters 2 are installed on the first plate surface and extend away from the base plate 1, the plurality of position limiters 2 define a plurality of storage spaces 5 spaced apart from each other, the plurality of storage spaces 5 can store corresponding elastic modules 4 in the elastic base 3, and are configured to restrict movement of the elastic modules 4 in the lateral direction of the base plate.

[0032] In this technical solution, multiple position limiting bodies 2 are protruded at intervals from the plate surface on one side of the base plate 1, and the multiple position limiting bodies 2 divide multiple storage spaces 5 that are spaced apart from each other, and the multiple storage spaces 5 can store corresponding elastic modules 4 in the elastic base 3, thereby restricting the movement of the elastic modules 4 in the lateral direction of the base plate 1. Thus, when the elastic module balancing cushion 13 is assembled to form the elastic cushion 12, it can be laid on the elastic base 3 having multiple elastic modules 4, and a portion of each elastic module 4 is stored in its corresponding storage space 5. At this time, the lateral buffering and position limiting effects of the position limiting bodies 2 effectively restrict the movement of each elastic module 4 in the lateral direction (i.e., the direction parallel to the base plate 1), thereby efficiently preventing each elastic module 4 from tilting due to the biasing force and efficiently maintaining the support stability of each elastic module 4. Therefore, when the elastic module balancing cushion 13 is laid on the elastic base 3, it restrains the movement of each elastic module 4 in the lateral direction, thereby effectively improving the stability of the elastic cushion 12 when pressure is applied, and the elastic cushion 12 has better comfort.

[0033] The elastic module balancing cushion may also be used in elastic cushions for making furniture.

[0034] In addition, in the elastic module balancing cushion 13, the position limiters 2 may be connected to one side of the plate surface of the base plate 1 by adhesive, ultrasonic welding, hook-and-loop connection, or other means. The number of position limiters 2 may be determined according to the number of elastic modules 4, and therefore the present invention does not limit the specific number of position limiters 2.

[0035] In addition, in one embodiment, since the position limiting body 2 protrudes from one plate surface of the base plate 1, the cross-sectional dimension of the position limiting body 2 may be the same in the axial direction of the storage hole, so that the internal lateral dimension of the storage space 5 is also the same in the protruding direction, and thus a portion of the elastic module 4 can enter the storage space 5 before abutting against the base plate 1. Alternatively, in another embodiment, the cross-sectional dimension of the position limiting body 2 may change in a stepped manner in the protruding direction, so that a stopper step is formed in the storage space 5, and thus a portion of the elastic module 4 can enter the storage space 5 before abutting against the stopper step. 1, 2, and 3, in another embodiment, the cross-sectional dimension of the position limiter 2 gradually decreases in the direction away from the base plate 1 (protruding direction). For example, as shown in FIG. 3, the position limiter 2 may be formed in a truncated cone shape, so that the internal dimension of the storage space 5 gradually decreases in the direction approaching the base plate 1. In this way, a portion of the elastic module 4 can enter the storage space 5 and then abut against the conical outer surface of the truncated cone. Alternatively, the elastic module 4 may be formed in a truncated cone shape, and the inclination of the conical surface of the truncated cone may be the same as the inclination of the conical surface of the storage hole 5. In this way, a portion of the truncated cone may be conically fitted with the truncated cone shape in the storage space 5 so that the shape fits, thereby more stably and reliably positioning the portion of the elastic module 4 in the storage space 5 and allowing the elastic module balancing cushion 13 to provide more stable and reliable restraint for the elastic module 4.

[0036] Furthermore, when the position limiting body 2 is formed in a truncated cone shape, the truncated cone shape may have multiple shapes, for example, the truncated cone shape may be a polygonal truncated cone shape, such as a rectangular truncated cone shape. Alternatively, in an alternative embodiment, the position limiting body 2 is formed in a truncated cone shape as shown in Figures 1, 2, and 3. Correspondingly, the elastic module 4 may be formed in a truncated cone shape. Thus, referring to Figures 2, 4, 6, 7, and 8, when the truncated cone body enters the receiving space 5, the conical surface of the truncated cone body forms a conical surface engagement with the conical surface of the surrounding truncated cone body. The conical surface engagement not only limits the position of the elastic module 4 in the lateral direction, but also limits the position of the elastic module 4 in the protruding direction (direction perpendicular to the lateral direction), thereby more stably and reliably restraining the elastic module 4.

[0037] In one embodiment, the base plate 1 does not need to deform when the elastic cushion is subjected to pressure, for example, the base plate 1 may be a plastic plate having a predetermined thickness. Alternatively, in another embodiment, the base plate 1 is made of a flexible material, so that the base plate 1 is formed as a flexible body. That is, when the elastic cushion is subjected to pressure, the base plate 1 undergoes flexibly deforming to provide cushioning, and the position limiters further restrict the movement of each elastic module 4 in the lateral direction, which effectively improves the stability of the elastic cushion 12 when subjected to pressure, and provides the elastic cushion 12 with better comfort.

[0038] The base plate 1 may be a plastic sheet having a predetermined thickness, a silicone gel pad, or a cloth material layer. Of course, the base plate 1 may be a single layer or multiple layers stacked in order. For example, if the base plate 1 is a cloth material layer, it may include a single layer of canvas or multiple layers stacked in order. The multiple cloth material layers may be connected together by adhesive or ultrasonic welding.

[0039] In one embodiment, the position limiters 2 do not need to elastically deform when the elastic cushion is subjected to pressure. For example, the position limiters 2 may be plastic truncated cones. Alternatively, in an alternative embodiment, the position limiters 2 are made of an elastic material, so that the position limiters 2 are formed as an elastic body. After the elastic module balancing cushion 12 is laid on the elastic base 3 to form the elastic cushion 12, when the elastic cushion is subjected to pressure, the elastic modules 4 are compressed accordingly to provide support. At this time, because the position limiters 2 are formed as an elastic body, the elastic body undergoes a certain elastic deformation to provide cushioning, which further restricts the movement of each elastic module 4 in the lateral direction, effectively improving the stability of the elastic cushion 12 when subjected to pressure and providing better comfort to the elastic cushion 12.

[0040] In addition, various types of elastic bodies may be used. For example, one type of elastic body may be a silicone gel body, or another type of elastic body may be a sponge body, such as a highly elastic sponge body, which is easy to mold into a required shape, low cost, and breathable. Alternatively, referring to FIG. 3 , in another type of elastic body, the elastic body includes a flexible sleeve 6 and an elastic element 7, and the elastic element 7 is disposed within the flexible sleeve 6. One end of the flexible sleeve 6 is connected to the base plate 1, and the other end extends away from the base plate 1. The flexible sleeve 6 can be flexibly deformed and increase the contact area with the elastic module 4, thereby better restricting the lateral movement of the elastic module 4. In this way, after the elastic module balancing cushion is laid on the elastic base 3 to form the elastic cushion 12, when the elastic cushion is subjected to pressure, the elastic modules 4 are compressed accordingly to provide support. At this time, the elastic body 7 undergoes a certain elastic deformation, and also elastically deforms, taking the flexible sleeve 6 with it, to provide cushioning. This further restricts the movement of each elastic module 4 in the lateral direction, thereby effectively improving the stability of the elastic cushion 12 when subjected to pressure, and providing the elastic cushion 12 with better comfort.

[0041] In one embodiment, the flexible sleeve 6 and the base plate 1 may be made of different materials, for example, the flexible sleeve 6 may be made of a plastic sheet, while the base plate 1 may be made of a silicone gel pad. Alternatively, in another embodiment, the flexible sleeve 6 and the base plate 1 may be made of the same material. In this way, using the same material for manufacturing makes it easy to connect the flexible sleeve 6 and the base plate 1, and reduces costs.

[0042] In one embodiment, the flexible sleeve 6 is a nonwoven tube and the base plate 1 is a nonwoven plate, and the nonwoven tube and the nonwoven plate may be connected by sewing, adhesive, or ultrasonic welding. The nonwoven sheet provides the elastic modular balancing cushion with good moisture resistance and breathability, and the nonwoven sheet also improves the flexibility and lightness of the elastic modular balancing cushion, thereby further improving the comfort of the elastic cushion.

[0043] In one embodiment, when no pressure is applied, the elastic element 7 is in a natural state within the flexible sleeve 6. Alternatively, in another embodiment, referring to Fig. 3, one end of the elastic element 7 is connected to one plate surface of the base plate 1, and the other end of the elastic element 7 is connected to an end closure cap at one end of the flexible sleeve 6 away from the plate surface, thereby pre-compressing the elastic element 7. In this way, the elastic element 7 is pre-compressed by the flexible sleeve 6 and the base plate 1, and has a certain elastic strength, thus providing better elastic positional constraints for the elastic modules 4.

[0044] Also, in one embodiment, the outer circumferential contour of the elastic element 7 enclosed within the flexible sleeve 6 may have a gap with the side wall of the flexible sleeve 6. Alternatively, in another embodiment, see Fig. 3, the outer circumferential contour of the elastic element 7 abuts the inner circumferential surface of the sleeve, in this way the elastic element 7, e.g., in a pre-compressed state, puts the flexible sleeve 6 in tension, bringing the outer circumferential surface of the flexible sleeve 6 into better contact with the elastic module 4 and better providing lateral positional constraints to the elastic module 4.

[0045] The elastic element 7 may be of various types. For example, in one embodiment, the elastic element 7 is a silicone gel body, such as a silicone gel truncated disc. Alternatively, in another embodiment, the elastic element 7 is a spring, which can provide good pre-compression strength and lateral position restriction. The spring may be a constant diameter spring or a truncated cone spring as shown in FIG. 3. For example, when a truncated cone spring is used, the nonwoven flexible sleeve 6 may be truncated cone-shaped, and the position restriction body 2 may be formed as a truncated cone.

[0046] Furthermore, in the elastic module balancing cushion 13 of the present invention, the number and arrangement of the position limiters 2 may be determined according to actual needs and are not specifically limited in the present invention. For example, in one embodiment, each storage space 5 is defined by an independent position limiter 2, and some of the position limiters 2 are not shared. Alternatively, in another embodiment, referring to FIGS. 2 and 8, adjacent storage spaces 5 may share some of the position limiters 2. For example, the position limiters 2 may include a plurality of first position limiters 8 and a plurality of second position limiters 9, and each storage space 5 may be defined by a plurality of first position limiters 8 and a plurality of second position limiters 9 arranged alternately, and each first position limiter 8 may be surrounded by the second position limiters 9 of the surrounding storage spaces 5. In this way, each first position limiting body 8 not only partitions the storage space 5 but is also surrounded by the surrounding second position limiting body 9, and in this way, each first position limiting body 8 is laterally positionally limited relative to the surrounding second position limiting body 9, and the second position limiting body 9 more stably and reliably restrains the elastic module 4 that enters the storage space 5 laterally.

[0047] 2 and 8, a plurality of first-row position limiters 10 and a plurality of second-row position limiters 11 are provided on one side of the base plate 1, the first-row position limiters 10 including a plurality of first-row position limiters 8 and a plurality of second-row position limiters 9 arranged alternately in sequence, each of the first-row position limiters 10 including a plurality of first-row position limiters 8 and a plurality of second-row position limiters 9 arranged alternately in sequence in the row direction, and each of the second-row position limiters 11 including a plurality of second-row position limiters 9 arranged at a pitch in the row direction, the pitch being one second-row position limiter 9, and each second-row position limiter 9 of each second-row position limiter 11 matching the first-row position limiter 8 of the adjacent row in the column direction so that the pitch is equal to the storage space 5. As shown in the figure, one storage space 5 is partitioned by four first position limiting bodies 8 and four second position limiting bodies 9 arranged in a square, with the four first position limiting bodies 8 located at the four corners, respectively, and the first position limiting bodies 8 located at each corner being surrounded by four second position limiting bodies 9 in the surrounding storage space 5. In this way, adjacent storage spaces 5 share some of the first position limiting bodies 8 and second position limiting bodies 9, and this constraint structure between the position limiting bodies can better restrict the movement of the elastic module 4 in the lateral direction.

[0048] Referring to Figures 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8, the present invention provides an elastic cushion 12, which includes an elastic base 3 and any of the elastic module balancing cushions 13 described above, in which the elastic base 3 includes a plurality of elastic modules 4, in which the elastic module balancing cushion 13 is placed on the elastic base 3, and the plurality of elastic modules 4 are stored in corresponding storage spaces 5, in which the position limiting body 2 can restrict the movement of the elastic modules 4 in the lateral direction.

[0049] As described above, when the balancing cushion for the elastic modules is laid on the elastic base, it restrains the movement of each elastic module in the lateral direction, thereby effectively improving the stability of the elastic cushion when subjected to pressure, and the elastic cushion has better comfort.

[0050] 6, the elastic module 4 is in a truncated cone shape and is in contact with at least one truncated cone-shaped position limiter 2. The truncated cone-shaped elastic module 4 and the truncated cone-shaped position limiter 2 have the same conical surface inclination, forming a conical surface fit therebetween. This allows a portion of the elastic module 4 to be more stably and reliably positioned within the storage space 5, and the elastic module balancing cushion 13 to provide more stable and reliable restraint for the elastic module 4.

[0051] The elastic module 4 may also be of various types, for example, a columnar elastic block, such as a rubber block. Alternatively, referring to FIG. 10 , the elastic module 4 includes a spring support 17 and a cone-shaped spring 16 installed in the spring support 17, where the elastic base 4 includes a foldable mounting frame, and the spring support 17 is used to detachably mount the elastic module 4 to the foldable mounting frame. In this way, the multiple elastic modules 4 are mounted to the foldable mounting frame by their respective spring supports 17, and then the elastic module balancing cushions 13 are placed on each elastic module 4, so that a portion of each elastic module 4 is positioned within its corresponding storage space 5. When removal is required, the elastic module balancing cushion 13 is removed, and then each elastic module 4 is removed from the foldable mounting frame and stacked in order to form a nest, and then the foldable mounting frame is folded. Thus, the elastic cushion 12 is easy to remove, and the removed elastic modules are stacked in a compressed or nested manner, which greatly saves space for storage and transportation and makes it easy to store.

[0052] 9, the elastic cushion further includes a flexible pad 14 and a cover 15. The flexible pad 14 is laid on the base plate 1, and the cover 15 covers the flexible pad 14, enclosing at least a portion of the elastic base 3, the elastic module balancing cushion 13, and the flexible pad 14. For example, the cover 15 can completely enclose the elastic base 3 and the elastic module balancing cushion 13, thereby improving the design of the elastic cushion 12. The cover 15 encloses at least a portion of the elastic base 3 and the elastic module balancing cushion 13 via a removable connecting structure, such as a slide fastener or Velcro. The flexible pad 14 can be a silicone gel pad, a cotton cushion, or a sponge pad, for example, a highly elastic sponge pad, or a flexible pad made of other materials.

[0053] The present invention also provides furniture, which includes any of the elastic cushions 12 described above. As described above, the comfort of the furniture is significantly improved. The furniture includes, but is not limited to, mattresses, sofas, chairs, sofa beds, benches, etc.

[0054] The scope of protection of the present invention is determined solely by the claims. Those skilled in the art can easily recognize, based on the teachings of the present invention, that alternative structures of the structures disclosed in the present invention can be realized as alternatives, or that the embodiments disclosed in the present invention can be combined to create new embodiments, which also fall within the scope of the appended claims.
