DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

[0020] As shown in FIG. 1-4, the present invention comprises:

[0021] a bed 1, the bed 1 having two sides each formed with a position-limiting rail 11 and a pivot-joint trough 12;

[0022] at least one bed heating member 22 arranged on the bed 1;

[0023] at least one bed heat-isolation member 21 arranged between the bed 1 and the bed heating member 22;

[0024] a plurality of energy stone layers 23 arranged on one side of the bed heating member 22 that is distant from the bed heat-isolation member 21;

[0025] a plurality of smooth pebble layers 24 arranged on one side of the energy stone layer 23 that is distant from the bed heating member 22;

[0026] a covering chamber 3 movably disposed on the bed 1, the covering chamber 3 including a first chamber 31 pivotally mounted to the bed 1 and a second chamber 32 arranged on and covering the first chamber 31 and is movably disposed on the bed 1;

[0027] a plurality of pivot pins 311 provided on the first chamber 31 and pivotally mounted in the pivot-joint troughs 12;

[0028] a plurality of sliding parts 321 provided on the second chamber 32 and respectively corresponding to and coupled to the position-limiting rails 11;

[0029] at least one chamber heating member 42 arranged on the covering chamber 3;

[0030] at least one heat isolation element 41 arranged on one side of the chamber heating member 42 that is adjacent to the bed 1;

[0031] at least one chamber heat-isolation member 43 arranged on one side of the chamber heating member 42 that is distant from the heat isolation element 41;

[0032] at least one surface layer 45 formed on an outer surface of the covering chamber 3;

[0033] at least one bonding layer 44 arranged between the chamber heat-isolation member 43 and the surface layer 45; and

[0034] a controller 5 arranged on the bed 1 and electrically connected to the bed heating member 22 and the chamber heating member 42.

[0035] As shown in FIGS. 1-7, the bed 1 is provided, in sequence from bottom to top, with the bed heat-isolation member 21, the bed heating member 22, the energy stone layers 23, and the smooth pebble layers 24, and the covering chamber 3 is formed of the surface layer 45, the bonding layer 44, the chamber heat-isolation member 43, the chamber heating member 42, and the heat isolation element 41 arranged in sequence from outside to inside and is controlled by the controller 5 that is arranged on the bed 1 and electrically connected to the bed heating member 22 and the chamber heating member 42 for a heating temperature thereof. An example of the bed heat-isolation member 21 and the chamber heat-isolation member 43 is needle-punched fabric; an example of the bonding layer 44 is glass fiber fabric; an example of the heat isolation element 41 is negative-ion mesh fabric; the energy stone layers 23 can be any combination of radium stones, volcanic rock, hokutolite, germanite, tenshoseki, chert; and the smooth pebble layers 24 can be any combination of cobblestone or Yuhua stone.

[0036] In practical uses, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, to allow a person to smoothly lie on the bed 1, the sliding parts 321 of the second chamber 32 are caused to slide on the position-limiting rails 11 of the bed 1 (wherein, in this embodiment, the position-limiting rail 11 and the sliding part 321 are configured as a recess-and-projection arrangement for mutual engagement for position limiting), so that the second chamber 32 is arranged on and covers and overlaps the first chamber 31, and the pivot pins 311 of the first chamber 31 are caused to rotate in the pivot-joint troughs 12 to make the first chamber 31 rotated, about a rotation center defined by the pivot pins 311, to lift upward and open, and at the same time driving the second chamber 32 that is arranged on the first chamber 31 to open. The user lies down on the bed 1, and the first chamber 31 and the second chamber 32 are moved in opposite directions to have the first chamber 31 covering a lower half of the human body and the second chamber 32 covering an upper half of the human body. For a better warming/heating space, a covering member 322 may be provided at an open end of the second chamber 32 to collaborate with the covering chamber 3 to enclose hot air in the interior.

[0037] Since the bed heating member 22 of the bed 1 is fixed by the bed heat-isolation member 21 to the bed 1 and since the bed 1 is generally formed of a wooden frame, it is possible to reduce damages that the bed heating member 22 causes on the bed 1, and further, a smooth pebble layer 24 can be additionally laid on the energy stone layer 23 that is in direct contact with the bed heating member 22, wherein the smooth pebble layer 24 is formed of flat, smooth and rounded stones having smooth surfaces in order to take the place of the energy stone layer 23 that is irregular to prevent acute surface or corrugation of the energy stone layer 23 from contacting and touching human body, thereby providing comfortable perception of contact. Further, the covering chamber 3 is also provided, on an inner side thereof, with the chamber heating member 42, and upper and lower sides of the chamber heating member 42 are respectively provided with the chamber heat-isolation member 43 and the heat isolation element 41 to prevent burning caused by accidental contacts of the human body with the inside surface of the covering chamber 3, while on the upper side, high temperature is prevented from transmitting to the surface layer 45 to cause burning in case of contact with or touch on the covering chamber 3. In this way, potential risk of burning due to accidental contact of a user is completely avoided. Further, in the instant embodiment, the surface layer 45 is embodied as an example of being made of golden polyurethane (PU) leather, and for the synthetic PU leather, processing or treatment can be taken according to different strengths, abrasion resistances, coldness resistance, colors, glossiness, and patterns to include features of diversified textures, bettered water resistance, and neat and clear configuration and being of light weight, wear resistant, and skidding resistant, to further improve overall outside appearance and quality of the present invention.

[0038] As shown in FIG. 8, each of the pivot-joint troughs 12a is provided, at just one side thereof, with an opening 121a for easy separation of the pivot pin 311a. As such, a user can similarly makes use of rotation of the pivot pin 311a in the pivot-joint trough 12a to turn and open the first chamber 31a, and further, with the arrangement of the opening 121a, the pivot pin 311a can be removed out of the pivot-joint trough 12a, to make both the first chamber 31a and the second chamber 32a separable from the bed 1a for easy repairing/maintenance and cleaning to thereby improve security and sanitary of use. Also, for sanitary, it is advantageous, in use, to further provide a mat 25a (such as a towel) on the smooth pebble layers 24a in order to prevent undesired contact with dirt, sweat, and dander left by a previous user so as to remove sanitary concerns of other users.

[0039] As shown in FIG. 9, at least one extendible/contractable bar 13b is provided only on the bed 1b to connect the first chamber 31b for opening/closing the first chamber 31b and fixing an opening angle thereof. The extendible/contractable bar 13b can be one of a hydraulic cylinder and a pneumatic cylinder. As such, a user may spend less effort in opening the first chamber 31b and unexpected falling of the first chamber 31b, after being opened, and thus colliding a user can be prevented to enhance operation safety and convenience.
