In order to make objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present disclosure clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure, and apparently, some but not all embodiments of the present disclosure are described. Generally, components in the embodiments of the present disclosure described and shown in the accompanying drawings herein may be arranged and designed in different configurations.
Therefore, the detailed description below of the embodiments of the present disclosure provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present disclosure, but merely represents chosen embodiments of the present disclosure. Based on the embodiments of the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those ordinarily skilled in the art without any creative effort shall fall within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.
It should be noted that similar reference signs and letters represent similar items in the following accompanying drawings, therefore, once a certain item is defined in one accompanying drawing, it is not needed to be further defined or explained in subsequent accompanying drawings.
In the description of the present disclosure, it should be indicated that orientation or positional relationships indicated by terms such as “center”, “upper”, “lower”, “left”, “right”, “vertical”, “horizontal”, “inner”, and “outer” are based on orientation or positional relationships as shown in the drawings, or orientation or positional relationships of a product of the present disclosure when being conventionally placed in use, merely for facilitating describing the present disclosure and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or suggesting that related devices or elements have to be in the specific orientation or configured and operated in a specific orientation, therefore, they should not be construed as limitation to the present disclosure. Besides, terms such as “first”, “second”, and “third” are merely for distinguishing the description, but should not be construed as indicating or implying importance in the relativity.
Moreover, the terms “horizontal”, “vertical” and the like do not mean that the parts are required to be absolutely horizontal or overhanging, but may be slightly inclined.

In the description of the present disclosure, it should be further illustrated that, unless otherwise specifically regulated and defined, the terms “set”, “install”, “link”, and “connect” should be understood in a broad sense, for example, a connection may be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integrated connection; it may be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it may be direct joining or indirect joining through an intermediate medium, and it also may be inner communication between two elements. For a person ordinarily skilled in the art, specific meanings of the above-mentioned terms in the present disclosure could be understood according to specific circumstances.
Currently, a double-layer inflatable bed generally includes two single inflatable beds with outer contours substantially having the same shape, and the two single inflatable beds are overlapped and fixedly connected at the overlapping place. That is to say, middle positions of the double-layer inflatable bed in the thickness direction in the prior art are isolated by two partition layers, and the outer contour of each partition layer is substantially the same as the outer contour of the double-layer inflatable bed, resulting in that the double-layer inflatable bed has large material consumption and high cost.
In view of this, the designers have designed a double-layer inflatable bed, and through reasonable structural design, the material consumption is reduced and thus the cost is lowered, on the premises of satisfying the intensity and comfort level of the double-layer inflatable bed.
Referring to
The first main layer 100 and the second main layer 200 are arranged in the thickness direction of the double-layer inflatable bed. An end of the first annular peripheral layer 300 is connected to an edge of first main layer 100, and an end of the second annular peripheral layer 400 is connected to an edge of the second main layer 200. An end of the first annular peripheral layer 300 away from the first main layer 100 is connected to an outer edge of the first annular connecting layer 500, and an end of the second annular peripheral layer 400 away from the second main layer 200 is connected to an outer edge of the second annular connecting layer 600. An end of the first annular blocking layer 700 is connected to the first main layer 100, and an end of the first annular blocking layer 700 away from the first main layer 100 is connected to an inner edge of the first annular connecting layer 500. An end of the second annular blocking layer 800 is connected to the second main layer 200, and an end of the second annular blocking layer 800 is connected to an inner edge of the second annular connecting layer 600.
Referring to
It should be noted that, after the inflatable bed is inflated, the first main layer 100 and the second main layer 200 are disposed substantially directly opposite to each other. A first annular connecting portion 004 surrounding the main air chamber 001 is formed at a connecting position of the first annular blocking layer 700 and the first main layer 100 (i.e. a position where the first annular blocking layer is connected with the first main layer), wherein the first annular connecting portion 004 may be a stitching portion, a heat bonding portion or a sticking portion, that is to say, the first main layer 100 and the first annular blocking layer 700 may be fixed to each other by stitching, heat bonding or sticking, furthermore, the first annular connecting portion 004 is located in a region surrounded by an outer edge of the first main layer 100. By the same reasoning, a second annular connecting portion 005 surrounding the main air chamber 001 is formed at a connecting position of the second annular blocking layer 800 and the second main layer 200, wherein the second annular connecting portion 005 may be a stitching structure, a heat bonding structure or a sticking structure, that is to say, the second main layer 200 and the second annular blocking layer 800 may be fixed by stitching, heat bonding or sticking, furthermore, the second annular connecting portion 005 is located in a region surrounded by an outer edge of the second main layer 200.
Meanwhile, in the present embodiment, after the inflation of the inflatable bed is completed, the first annular connecting layer 500 and the second annular connecting layer 600 are substantially fitted and substantially parallel to the first main layer 100 and the second main layer 200.
It should be understood that the inflated inflatable bed may be in a quadrate shape, a circular shape, an elliptical shape and so on, wherein the quadrate shape may be a square or a rectangle. Meanwhile, both the first annular connecting layer 500 and the second connecting layer may be quadrate rings or circular rings, etc. In the present embodiment, illustration is made by taking as an example that the inflated inflatable bed is in a shape of rectangle, and both the first annular connecting layer 500 and the second annular connecting layer 600 are rectangular rings.

It should be understood that the first annular body and the second annular body 320 may be in separate structures, and they are separately processed and then spliced together. By the same reasoning, the third annular body and the fourth annular body 420 may be in separate structures, and they are separately processed and then spliced together.
In the present embodiment, it should be noted that the first annular peripheral layer 300, the second annular peripheral layer 400, the first annular connecting layer 500, the second annular connecting layer 600, the first annular blocking layer 700, and the second annular blocking layer 800 are all four-sided annular structures. All of the first annular peripheral layer 300, the second annular peripheral layer 400, the first annular connecting layer 500, the second annular connecting layer 600, the first annular blocking layer 700, and the second annular blocking layer 800 may be in an integrated structure, and obviously, in other embodiments, all of the first annular peripheral layer 300, the second annular peripheral layer 400, the first annular connecting layer 500, the second annular connecting layer 600, the first annular blocking layer 700, and the second annular blocking layer 800 may be in separate structures. Taking the first annular peripheral layer 300 as an example, the first annular peripheral layer 300 includes four rectangular surfaces, the four rectangular surfaces are independently processed and then sequentially connected end to end to form the first annular peripheral layer 300 of a rectangular ring structure. In the present embodiment, both the integrated type and the separate type are within the scope of protection.
In other embodiments, the double-layer inflatable bed may include only the first annular connecting layer 500 or the second annular connecting layer 600, that is to say, the number of annular connecting layer may be only one, and in this case, all of the first annular blocking layer 700, the second annular blocking layer 800, the first annular peripheral layer 300, and the second annular peripheral layer 400 are connected to the same annular connecting layer, in this way, the stability of the double-layer inflatable bed can also be maintained, further reducing the material consumption, and lowering the cost.
Referring to
In the above, the air pump 900 is provided in the first peripheral air chamber 002, and the first unidirectional valve 1000 is provided on the first annular blocking layer 700 to allow only the gas in the first peripheral air chamber 002 to flow into the main air chamber 001. The second unidirectional valve 2000 is provided on the second annular blocking layer 800 to allow only the gas in the main air chamber 001 to flow into the second peripheral air chamber 003. The air release valve 3000 is provided on the first annular peripheral layer 300. When it is required to inflate the double-layer inflatable bed, the air release valve 3000 is closed, and the air chamber is isolated from the outside. The air pump 900 is started to first inflate the first peripheral air chamber 002, and when the gas in the first peripheral air chamber 002 is sufficient and reaches an opening pressure of the first unidirectional valve 1000, the gas passes through the first unidirectional valve 1000 and enters the main air chamber 001. By the same reasoning, when the air pressure in the main air chamber 001 gradually increases and satisfies an opening pressure of the second unidirectional valve 2000, the gas gradually enters the second peripheral air chamber 003 from the main air chamber 001, until the inflation of the double-layer inflatable bed is completed. It should be understood that the air release valve 3000 may also be provided on the main air chamber 001 and the second peripheral air chamber 003, and the air release valve 3000 may be opened to perform the air release operation when not needing to use the double-layer inflatable bed.
Number of the shaping members 4000 is plural, the plurality of shaping members 4000 are all located in the main air chamber 001, and two ends of each shaping member 4000 are respectively connected to the first main layer 100 and the second main layer 200. The shaping members 4000 may be pull belts, and the shaping members 4000 may be connected to the first main layer 100 and the second main layer 200 in a stitching manner Meanwhile, the plurality of shaping members 4000 may be arranged in a rectangular array.
For the double-layer inflatable bed provided in the present embodiment, by providing two annular blocking portions, the two main layers, the two annular peripheral layers, the two annular connecting layers, and the two annular blocking layers together define the two peripheral air chambers arranged adjacent to each other in the thickness direction of the double-layer inflatable bed, that is to say, a structure formed by the two peripheral air chambers may be understood as a double-layer bed structure, and the two peripheral air chambers are both annular air chambers, with no isolation layer being required to be provided in the middle part to isolate the two, thereby reducing the material consumption and lowering the cost. When the inflatable bed is used, the main air chamber 001 plays a main supporting role, and the two peripheral air chambers serve to enhance the structural strength of the two upper and lower bed edges of the main air chamber 001. When the inflatable bed is used, an outer edge of the inflatable bed is not easily recessed, with high use safety, and high comfort level.
The above are merely for preferred embodiments of the present disclosure and not intended to limit the present disclosure. For one skilled in the art, various modifications and variations can be made to the present disclosure. Any amendments, equivalent replacements, improvements and so on made within the spirit and principle of the present disclosure should be covered within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.
