Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to a mattress and, more particularly, to a ventilation mattress, which uses an electric fan to provide currents of air through air vents in the top layer of the outer covering for ventilation. The ventilation mattress can be made in any of a variety of forms for use as a seat mattress, sofa mattress, or bed mattress.

2. Description of the Related Art

Straws and bamboo strips are commonly used for making cooling mattresses for the advantage of being highly ventilative. Lying or sitting on a cooling mattress during a hot weather is comfortable at the initial stage. However, a cooling mattress absorbs heat energy from the surrounding and the user's body when in use, its cooling effect is gradually diminished with the time in which the user sits or lies on the cooling mattress.

There are also known seat and bed mattresses formed of strings of ball or block elements. These seat and bed mattresses have open spaces in between the ball or block elements for ventilation. However, when sitting or lying on a seat or bed mattress of this design, the user's body will block the open spaces, and the seat or bed mattress becomes hot within a short time.

In order to eliminate the aforesaid drawbacks, a seat mattress with enforced currents of air is developed. A seat mattress of this design comprises a hard inner layer, a breathing leather covering covered the hard inner layer, and an electric fan. The hard inner layer has air guide grooves adapted to guide air in a particular direction. The leather covering has air holes for exhaust of air. The electric fan is controlled to induce currents of air into the inside of the seat mattress. This design of seat mattress still has drawbacks. Because currents of air are guided in a particular direction, the ventilation effect is limited. Further, because the inner layer is a hard member, it is not comfortable to sit on the seat mattress.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention has been accomplished under the circumstances in view. According to one aspect of the present invention, the ventilation mattress comprises an outer bag stuffed with a fabric stuffing member for ventilation. According to another aspect of the present invention, the fabric stuffing member is formed of interwoven spandex fibers and having open spaces for circulation of air through the at least one air inlet and the air vents. According to still another aspect of the present invention, a flexible pad is provided at the bottom side of the fabric stuffing member to improved the flexibility and ventilation of the ventilation mattress. According to still another aspect of the present invention, high-performance fans are installed to draw air into the outer bag for circulation. According to still another aspect of the present invention, membrane type pressure switches are provided inside the outer bag and adapted to turn on the high-performance fans when the user sitting on the ventilation mattress, or to turn off the high-performance fans when the user left the ventilation mattress. According to still another aspect of the present invention, electric cooling fans or electric fans with electric heater means may be alternatively used. According to still another aspect of the present invention, semiconductor cooler chips may be used with the high-performance fans.

When used in a space where an air conditioner provides hot air, the fans 15 draw hot air to circulate through the ventilation mattress. The invention can also be made in such a manner that the fans 15 draw hot air out of the ventilation mattress in direction from the air vents 111 toward the inside of the fabric stuffing member 13

FIGS. 17 and 18 show still another alternate form of the present invention. According to this embodiment, the ventilation mattress 1 comprises an outer bag 11, a fabric stuffing member 13 put in the outer bag 11, a flexible pad 16 provided at the bottom side of the fabric stuffing member 13 inside the outer bag 11, a flexible tube 14 extended from the outer bag 11 at one side and defining therein an air inlet 12 and an air outlet 121, a meshed frame device 19 mounted inside the outer bag 11 at one side remote from the flexible tube 14 and defining an air circulation chamber 191 for guiding air from the air inlet 12 and the inside space of the fabric stuffing member 13 toward the inside space of the flexible pad 16 and the air outlet 121, a high-performance fan 15 provided at one end of the flexible tube 14 remote from the outer bag 11 and adapted to draw currents of air into the air inlet 12, a semiconductor cooler chip 18 mounted in the flexible tube 14 and having its cold side 181 disposed in the air inlet 12 and its hot side 182 disposed in the air outlet 121, and membrane type pressure switches 112 are provided at the inner surface of the top fabric sheet layer 131 of the outer bag 11 and adapted to switch on/off the fan 15 when the user sits on or leaves from the ventilation mattress 1, and a time delay switch 159 adapted to delay the acting of the off action of the membrane type pressure switches 112 for a predetermined length of time so that the fan 15 can be maintained functioning if the user simply leaves from the ventilation mattress 1 for a short time, preventing frequent on/off action of the fans 15. The fabric stuffing member 13 is three-dimensional device formed of interwoven spandex fibers 132, having open spaces 1321 in it for ventilation between the air inlet 12 and the air circulation chamber 191. The outer bag 11 is formed of top and bottom fabric sheet layers 131, having small air vents 111 in the top side (top fabric sheet layer). The flexible pad 16 comprises a top cover layer 161, a bottom cover layer 162, a plurality of springy support members 163 connected between the top cover layer 161 and the bottom cover layer 162, an air passage 164 defined in between the top cover layer 161 and the bottom cover layer 162 around the springy support members 163 for ventilation between the air circulation chamber 191 and the air outlet 121.
