INFLATABLE BED

Abstract

An inflatable bed includes an upper body, a lower body, and a closed chamber space formed between the upper body and the lower body. The inflatable bed includes a plurality of connecting members therein. The connecting members are spaced a determined distance apart from each other and arranged longitudinally and transversely inside the inflatable bed for connecting the upper body with the lower body. Each of the connecting members is a thin ring-like structure. When the inflatable bed is inflated, the connecting members arranged in the longitudinal and transverse directions provide a bubble-like effect, thereby enhancing the comfort for the user to lie thereon. Further, the inflatable bed is light and small in size after collapsed, which is advantageous for camping and mountaineering.

Claims

1. An inflatable bed, comprising an upper body, a lower body, and a closed chamber space formed between the upper body and the lower body, characterized by: the inflatable bed including a plurality of connecting members therein, the connecting members being spaced a determined distance apart from each other and arranged longitudinally and transversely inside the inflatable bed for connecting the upper body with the lower body, each of the connecting members being a thin ring-like structure.

2. The inflatable bed as claimed in claim 1, wherein the chamber space is configured to fill the inflatable bed with air.

3. The inflatable bed as claimed in claim 1, wherein the upper body and each of the connecting members are joined together by a press-fit technique to form a bonded portion so that the upper body is connected with the connecting member.

4. The inflatable bed as claimed in claim 1, wherein the lower body and each of the connecting members are joined together by a press-fit technique to form a bonded portion so that the lower body is connected with the connecting member.

5. The inflatable bed as claimed in claim 3, wherein the press-fit technique is high frequency heating.

6. The inflatable bed as claimed in claim 4, wherein the press-fit technique is high frequency heating.

7. The inflatable bed as claimed in claim 3, wherein the bonded portion is in the form of a circle, a rectangle or a strip.

8. The inflatable bed as claimed in claim 4, wherein the bonded portion is in the form of a circle, a rectangle or a strip.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0013] Embodiments of the present invention will now be described, by way of example only, with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0014] As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the present invention discloses an inflatable bed 1. The inflatable bed 1 comprises an upper body 11, a lower body 12, and a closed chamber space 10 formed between the upper body 11 and the lower body 12. The present invention is characterized in that the inflatable bed 1 includes a plurality of connecting members 2 therein. The connecting members 2 are spaced a determined distance apart from each other and arranged longitudinally and transversely inside the inflatable bed 1 for connecting the upper body 11 with the lower body 12.

[0015] Each connecting member 2 is a thin ring-like structure. The upper body 11 and the connecting member 2 are joined together by a press-fit technique, such as high frequency heating, to form a bonded portion 13 so that the upper body 11 is connected with the connecting member 2. The lower body 12 is connected with the connecting member 2 in the same manner.

[0016] According to the above-described structure, when the chamber space 10 inside the inflatable bed 1 is inflated, the connecting members 2 spaced a determined distance apart from each other and arranged longitudinally and transversely are inflated and connected between the upper body 11 and the lower body 12 to provide a bubble-like effect, thereby enhancing the comfort for the user to lie on the inflatable bed. Further, after the inside of the chamber space 10 is deflated (as shown in FIG. 3), the connecting members 2 in the form of a thin ring-like structure are light and small in size after collapsed, which is advantageous for camping and mountaineering.

[0017] The bonded portion 13 may be of various shapes, such as a circle. As shown in FIG. 4, the bonded portion 14 is in the form of a strip to change the appearance thereof.

[0018] Although particular embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail for purposes of illustration, various modifications and enhancements may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Accordingly, the present invention is not to be limited except as by the appended claims.
