Abstract

The present invention relates to an embedded accommodation space structure of an air mattress made of three-dimensional woven fabrics, the structure providing, when an air mattress that has an airtightness-exhibiting coating layer, which is formed on the outer surface of three-dimensional woven fabric woven from a plurality of pieces of pile yarn connecting the space between woven surfaces facing each other at both sides thereof, so as to be inflated by means of air pressure is manufactured, an independent space in which electric components such as a speaker for generating sound and vibration and an air pump for filling the mattress with air can be provided in a concealed state, so that the exposure of the electric components is blocked while maintaining sound transmission characteristics through the pile yarn, and thus convenience of use and exterior attractiveness can be increased. The structure for providing the independent space while maintaining the vibration characteristics of the pile yarn, inside a normal air mattress in which the three-dimensional woven fabrics are used as a base, is characterized in that a barrel-shaped box, of which the upper part is blocked by a flange formed on the outer peripheral surface of an opening so that the electric components such as the speaker for transmitting sound and the air pump for injecting air are selectively accommodated therein through the opening provided at the bottom surface thereof, and a cylinder-shaped isolated part, of which the side is opened in a state in which the plurality of pieces of pile yarn is woven above the box so as to be vertically connected between upper and lower woven surfaces and coating films are respectively formed on the outer sides of the upper and lower woven surfaces, are integrally joined therein.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

[0017] Hereinafter, the embedded storage space structure of air mattressa having a three-dimensional woven fabric of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings as follows:

[0018] FIGS. 3 and 4 are a perspective view and a cross-sectional view illustrating an accommodation space structure of the present invention and FIGS. 5 and 6 are cross-sectional views of an exemplary embodiment illustrating states before and after installing an accommodation space structure in an air mattress with the three-dimensional woven fabrics. The present invention relates to a structure 100 which provides an independent space while maintaining a vibration characteristic of pile yarn on the premise of the air mattress 20 which maintains an inflated state by an air pressure injected therein by forming a coating layer made of elastomer which blocks air on an outer surface by using three-dimensional woven fabrics in which a plurality of pile yarns W is vertically connected between upper and lower woven surfaces 2 and 3 facing each other as a base.

[0019] In the structure 100, a barrel-shaped box 100, of which the upper part is blocked by a flange 112 formed on the outer peripheral surface of an opening so that the electric components such as the speaker for transmitting sound and the air pump for injecting air are selectively accommodated therein through the opening 111 provided at the bottom surface thereof, and a cylinder-shaped isolated part 120, of which the side is opened in a state in which the plurality of pieces of pile yarn W′ is woven above the box to be vertically connected between the upper and lower woven surfaces 121 and 122 and coating films 123 made of elastomer are respectively formed on the outer sides of the upper and lower woven surfaces 121 and 122, similarly to the three-dimensional woven fabrics which are used as a base of the air mattress 20, are integrally joined.

[0020] When the structure 100 is manufactured such that the isolated part 120 configured by the three-dimensional woven fabrics is joined to an upper surface of the box 110, the box 110 and the isolated part 120 have the same external diameter and upper and lower parts those of have the ratio in the same range and the remaining part excluding the flange 112 formed at a lower end of the box 110 is preferably formed to have the same height as the air mattress 20.

[0021] When the structure 100 of the present invention is installed to be inserted to be concealed in the air mattress 20, as illustrated in FIG. 5, after forming a circular hole H having the same internal diameter to vertically pass through any one or more parts of the air mattress so that the box 110 and the isolated part 120 are inserted, the structure 100 is inserted upwardly from the lower part.

[0022] That is, when the structure 100 is inserted into the hole H formed in the air mattress 20, as illustrated in FIG. 6, the flange 112 at a lower end of the box 110 is closely joined to the outer surface of the hole H at a lower side and in a state in which a circular coating layer 123 formed on the upper surface of the isolated part 120 is located on the same line while entering onto an inner peripheral surface of the hole H of the air mattress 20 at an upper side, the coating layer 123 and a donut shaped joint material 130 which integrates a part of the air mattress 20 are in contact with each other on both sides of the hole H to be joined.

[0023] Since the coating layer 123 which configures the structure 100 and a surface coating layer and the joint material 130 of the air mattress 20 are manufactured by the same type of elastomer, thermal bonding is desirably used to increase the durability, but an adhesive may also be used.

[0024] FIGS. 7 and 8 are cross-sectional views of another exemplary embodiment illustrating states before and after installing an accommodation space structure in an air mattress with the three-dimensional woven fabrics. In the embodiment of FIGS. 5 and 6, the circular hole H is formed to vertically pass through the air mattress 20 to allow the structure 100 to be inserted therein. However, according to another embodiment of the present invention, after forming a circular hole H on a lower surface of the air mattress 20, the structure 100 is inserted in a state in which the pile warn W remaining in the hole is removed so that the coating layer 123 at the upper side and an inner surface of the air mattress 20 are in contact with each other.

[0025] FIG. 9 is a cross-sectional view illustrating an example that an electric component is mounted in an accommodation space structure installed in an air mattress of the present invention. After inserting and joining the structure 100 including the laminated box 110 and the isolated part 120 into the circular hole H which is formed to pass through a lower surface of the air mattress 20 or vertically pass through the air mattress 20, the electric components such as a speaker, an audio system, or an air pump are inserted through the opening 111 of the box 110, and then the opening is blocked by the cover C so that the electric components may be provided in a concealed state so as not to be exposed to the outside of the air mattress. Simultaneously, the entire part of the air mattress may be maintained in an inflated state for a long time while maintaining a uniform pressure so that the usage convenience may be improved.

[0026] Even though a length of the pile yarn W′ of the isolated part 120 which configures the structure 100 is slightly shorter than a length of the pile yarn W which configures the air mattress 20, it was confirmed through repeated experiments that there is no problem in spreading the vibration generated by the sound of the speaker installed in the box 110.
