HEALTH CARE AIR BED
A health care air bed having a mattress. The mattress includes several support air cells which are assembled at intervals on the mattress and are mutually connected with each other. Furthermore, a spongy mat is laid on the mattress so as to provide a level surface for the bed. A mouth is utilized for extracting and inflating air. The mouth is assembled at a side of the mattress. The support air cells are divided into five strips which support the neck, back, waist, hip and leg of human body respectively. This invention is applicable to a single air chamber or a double air chamber. The mattress for queen size and king size beds have two separate air chambers. In accordance with physiological characteristics of the human body, this invention designs support points at an interval so that the neck, back, waist, hip and leg of the human body can be effectively supported that is helpful to a person's health and extends human life.
1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates to furniture. Specifically, the present invention relates to a health care air bed.
2. Description of the Related Art
Existing beds provide uniform support for a human body, but does not effectively support all parts of the human body. As a matter of fact, different parts of the human body require different support structures. By sleeping on an existing mattress for a long period of time, a human body may be seriously injured. A body is especially susceptible to injury to the backbone from the neck to the tailbone, which may result in distortion of the neck and backbone. Additionally, lack of sleep for a long period of time may result in neurasthenic.
Accordingly, an apparatus is needed which provides sufficient support to all parts of the human body. It is an object of the present invention to provide such an apparatus.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTIONIn one aspect, the present invention is a novel health care air bed designed in accordance with psychological characteristics of the human body, which is comfortable, convenient, solid and durable. The health care air bed includes a plurality of support air cells protruding over the mattress which are assembled at horizontal interval in relation to the mattress and which are connected with the support air cells. In addition, a spongy mat is laid on the surface of the mattress. Several grooves matching the air cells are made under the spongy mat for positioning the air cells upon. Thus, each groove is matched to support a single air cell. The air cell also includes an opening for extracting and inflating air into the air cell. The opening is preferably located at the side of the mattress.
The present invention is a health care air bed providing support to all parts of the human body. Referring to
The support air cells are divided into 5 strips which are designed to provide support to the neck, back, waist, hips and legs of the human body. Preferably, the mattress is constructed of a fabric and PVC which can be welded by a high-frequency welding machine. The spongy mat is preferably made of 25 kg/m3 foaming cotton. The present invention is applicable to any size bed, such as a single bed, a double size bed, a queen size bed, or a king size bed.
