Abstract

Conventional cushions with a textile, leather or fibre covering have the disadvantage that they cannot usually be used in wet conditions and have no capacity for storing cold or heat. Plastic cushions used in the hospital sector and containing a liquid filling are, by contrast, associated with the disadvantage that the body surface covered by the cushion is sealed off from air which results in physical discomfort. Moreover, such liquid-filled cushions lose their typical cushion shape when handled and acquire a spherical form. The proposed cushion avoids these disadvantages of these two types of cushion and can be used in a versatile manner in wet or dry situations for healthy individuals or patients, because the cushion cover consists of a plastic bag, enclosed on all sides, with a marginal weld seam and the volume of the cushion is subdivided into a plurality of mutually connected chambers by a number of intermediate weld seams, these chambers being filled with a gelatinous liquid.

Description

Polsterkissen mit flexibler Kissenhülle undUpholstered cushion with flexible cushion cover and

flüssiger Kissenfüllung.liquid pillow filling.

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Polsterkissen mit flexibler Kissenhülle und flüssiger Kissenfüllung.The invention relates to an upholstered cushion with a flexible cushion cover and liquid pillow filling.

Im täglichen Leben, insbesondere aber im Hospitalbereich, finden die verschiedenartigsten Kissen Anwendung, wo eine weiche TTnterlage oder TYmhüllung benötigt wird. Als häufigste Werkstoffe werden hierfür Textilien, Leder und sonstige Faserstoffe verwendet. Derartige Kissen haben Jedoch den Nachteil, daß sie bei Nässe zumeist nicht einsetzbar sind und kein Kälte-bzw. ärmespeicherungsvermögen besitzen.In daily life, but especially in the hospital sector, they find A wide variety of pillow applications, where a soft pad or cover is needed. The most common materials for this are textiles, leather and others Fiber used. However, such pillows have the disadvantage that they are wet are mostly not usable and no cold or. have heat storage capacity.

Im Krankenhausbereich verwendete Kissen aus Kunststoff und mit einer Flüssigkeitsfüllung sind dagegen mit dem Nachteil behaftet, daß die durch das Kissen bedeckte Körperoberfläche luftabgeschlossen ist, was zu einem körperlichen Unwohlsein führt. Außerdem verlieren derartige flüssigkeitsgefüllte Kissen bei der Handhabung ihre typische flache Kissenform und nehmen kugelige Gestalt an.Cushions made of plastic and with a Liquid filling, however, have the disadvantage that by the pillow Covered body surface is airtight, causing physical discomfort leads. In addition, such liquid-filled cushions lose weight during handling their typical flat pillow shape and take on a spherical shape.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, die STachS teile dieser beiden Kissentypen zu vermeiden und ein Polsterkissen vorzuschlagen, das vielfältig in nassen und trockenen Situationen, bei Gesunden und Kranken sowie bei Kleinkindern und Erwachsenen gleichermaßen verwendbar ist.The invention is based on the object, the STachS parts of this to avoid both types of pillows and to propose an upholstered pillow that is diverse in wet and dry situations, with healthy and sick people as well as with small children and adults alike.

Gelöst wird diese Aufgabe bei einem Polsterkissen der eingangs erwähnten Art erfindungsgel 13 dadurch, daß die Kissenhülle aus einem allseits geschlosseiien Kunststoffolienbeutel mit einer Randschweißnaht besteht und das Kissenvolumen durch eine Anzahl von Zwischenschweißnähten in mehrere untereinander verbundene Kammern unterteilt ist, die mit einer Gelw flüssigkeit gefüllt sind.This problem is solved with an upholstery cushion of the type mentioned at the beginning Art of the invention gel 13 in that the cushion cover is closed on all sides Plastic film bag with an edge weld seam and the pillow volume through a number of intermediate welds in several interconnected chambers is divided, which are filled with a Gelw liquid.

Es empfiehlt sich, bei Bedarf einen E;berzug aus Moltonstoff zu wählen.If necessary, it is advisable to choose a cover made of molton fabric.

Die Zeichnung zeigt eine Ausführungsform des Polsterkissens in verkleinertem Maßstab und in Draufsicht.The drawing shows an embodiment of the cushion in a reduced size Scale and in top view.

Das Polsterkissen 1 besitzt etwa quadratische Form mit einer Seitenlänge von etwa 50 cm. Die zweiteilige Kissenhülle besteht aus einem allseits geschlossenen Kunststoffolienbeutel 1 mit einer Randschweißnaht 2.The upholstery cushion 1 has an approximately square shape with one side of about 50 cm. The two-part cushion cover consists of a completely closed one Plastic film bag 1 with an edge weld seam 2.

Das gesamte Kissenvolumen wird durch eine Anzahl von Zwischenschweißnähten 3 in mehrere untereinander verbundene Kammern 5 unterteilt.The entire cushion volume is created by a number of intermediate welds 3 divided into several interconnected chambers 5.

Diese Zwischenschweißnähte 3 sind wesentlich kürzer bemessen als die Randschweißnaht 2 an einem Seitenrand.These intermediate welds 3 are dimensioned much shorter than that Edge weld seam 2 on one side edge.

Wesentlich ist aber, daß die besagten Zwischensc#e1ßnähte 3 nicht ineinanderlaufen, sondern frei enden, so daß bis zu der nächstliegenden Zwischenschweißnaht ein gewisser Abstand bestehen bleibt.It is essential, however, that the said intermediate seams 3 not run into each other, but end freely, so that up to the closest intermediate weld a certain distance remains.

Dieser frei bleibende Abstand zwischen zwei benacbbarten Zwischenschweißnähten läßt einen freien, wenn auch beengten Durchgang für die flüssige Kissenfüllung übrig.This remaining free space between two adjacent intermediate weld seams leaves a free, albeit narrow, passage for the liquid pillow filling.

Als flüssige Kissenfüllung wird zweckmäßigerweise eine schwerfließende Gelflüssigkeit gewählt, die aufgrund der engen Ausgänge kaum aus einer Einzelkammer 5 herausgedrückt werden kann.A poorly flowing one is expediently used as the liquid pillow filling Gel liquid chosen, which due to the narrow exits hardly from a single chamber 5 can be pushed out.

Das beschriebene Polsterkissen ist vielfältig. ein setzbar. Bei gesunden Personen kann es beim Auto fahren eingesetzt werden und Erleichterung bieten.The upholstery cushion described is diverse. a settable. In healthy ones It can be used to provide relief to people while driving a car.

Bei Sportlern kann es als Kühlkissen für Prellungen und Quetschungen verwendet werden.In athletes, it can be used as a cooling pad for bruises and bruises be used.

Es kann aber auch die Aufgabe einer Wärmflasche übernehmen.But it can also take on the role of a hot water bottle.

Schließlich eignet sich dieses Kissen aber auch hervorragend für die Verwendung im Krankenhausbereich, wo Patienten mit Hautverbrennungen und Auflagegeschwüre längere Zeit weich unterstützt werden müssen, ohne daß gleichzeitig die Aussenluft von den unterstützten Hautpartien ferngehalten wird. Die Außenluft hat vielmehr durch die zahlreichen Außenrillen im Polsterkissen, die durch die Zwischenschweißnähte verursacht werden, die ausreichende Möglichkeit, an nahezu jeden Punkt der unterstützten Hautoberfläche heranzukommen.After all, this pillow is also ideal for them Use in hospitals, where patients with burned skin and ulcers have to be softly supported for a long time without the outside air at the same time is kept away from the supported skin areas. The outside air has rather due to the numerous outer grooves in the upholstery cushion, which are created by the intermediate welds caused sufficient possibility of being supported at almost any point To get close to the surface of the skin.
