Description

The invention relates to a mattress with a mattress core and a casing surrounding the mattress core, wherein the mattress core has at least a first layer and a second layer, the first layer having a first comfort profile, in particular a first hardness profile or a first climatic profile, and the second layer a second comfort profile, in particular a second hardness profile or a second climate profile, which differs from the first comfort profile, and wherein the first layer and the second layer are stacked in a thickness direction of the mattress and interchangeably disposed in the shell.

Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for adjusting an overall comfort profile of a mattress, in particular a mattress of the type mentioned.

Such mattresses allow, for example, an adaptation of an overall hardness profile of the mattress by varying the order of the stacked layers with respect to a lying surface of the mattress, the layers each having different hardness profiles. By varying the order of stacking the layers with the different hardness profiles different total hardness profiles of the mattress can be set or specified. The layers together form the mattress core, which is surrounded by the shell, so that the layers are stable enclosed in the shell and the shell demarcates the outer dimensions of the mattress.

A change in the overall hardness profile of such a mattress can be achieved, for example, by turning the mattress through 180 ° so that a former underside of the mattress can now be used as a lying surface (upper side) (and the former upper side acts as an underside). By thus turning the mattress, an order of stacking the respective layers with the respective hardness profiles in the thickness direction can be reversed, so that a total of two different total hardness profiles can be given, resulting from the individual hardness profiles of the respective layers according to the order of stacking.

However, if one wishes to change individual layers of the mattress core (with respect to their respective contact surfaces) with respect to one another in order to change an overall hardness profile as an alternative or in addition to turning the mattress, the following procedure is necessary. Conventional mattresses of this type require this to open the shell at an opening, where appropriate, all layers of the mattress removed from the shell, to each other newly arranged and must be re-inserted into the shell according to the rearrangement. This is very cumbersome and time consuming.

It is an object of the invention to describe a mattress and a method of the type described above, which allow a simplified and improved adaptation of an overall comfort profile of the mattress.

This object is achieved according to a first aspect by a mattress according to claim 1.

In this mattress, the shell of the mattress has at least a first reclosable opening and a second reclosable opening, wherein the first reclosable opening and the second reclosable opening are spaced apart in the thickness direction of the mattress.

Such a mattress has the advantage that the sheath can be opened in different directions in the thickness direction, thereby providing easy access to different layers of the mattress core. For example, the sheath may be opened at the first reclosable opening to access the first layer having the first comfort profile, wherein the sheath may additionally be opened at the second reclosable opening to gain access to the second layer with the second comfort profile , The mattress thus allows a simplified access to a desired position of the mattress core for removal or insertion into the shell, without having to remove several or possibly all layers of the mattress core for a rearrangement of the layers of the shell.

In this way, the mattress allows an improved and easier change of the arrangement of the different layers of the mattress core to each other for adapting or changing an overall comfort profile of the mattress. A user is thus able to easily adapt the hardness of the mattress to its individual sleeping needs by simply replacing or rearranging the respective layers of the mattress core relative to one another by sequentially opening the cover at the first or second reclosable opening.

In this way, the mattress allows maximum sleeping comfort.

By setting the first and second reclosable openings at a certain distance from each other in the thickness direction of the mattress are spaced apart areas the mattress core in the thickness direction of the mattress accessible by opening the respective first and second openings of the shell. For example, the mattress may be manipulated to open the top first reclosable opening of the sheath to gain access to the top of the mattress core. As a result, for example, a layer can be removed or inserted on the upper side of the mattress core. Subsequently, the first resealable opening can be closed and the mattress can be turned through 180 ° so that the former underside is now at the top. Thus, the second reclosable opening is now at the top and can be opened, so that access to a region of the mattress core is now provided in a simple manner, which was previously arranged in the region of the underside of the mattress. For example, by opening the second reclosable opening, a previously removed layer in this area of the mattress core can be reused or a layer located in this area of the mattress core can be removed. In this way, the order or arrangement of the respective layers of the mattress core with respect to their contact surfaces can be flexibly, quickly and easily changed without having to remove all layers involved in this process at once from the mattress, re-arrange and back into the shell use.

The mattress described here thus enables a simplified and rapid rearrangement of the individual layers of the mattress core of the type described above for changing or adapting an overall comfort profile of the mattress to the needs or wishes of a user.

For example, by opening the first opening of the shell, the accessible first layer of the mattress core can be removed from the first opening and the first opening closed again. Subsequently, the mattress is turned over, the second opening of the shell is opened and the previously removed first layer is inserted into the shell via the second opening. In this way, the first and second layers of the mattress core can be stacked variably in the thickness direction of the mattress with respect to their respective support surfaces or support sides. Thus, adjacent bearing surfaces of the first and second layers of the mattress core can be variably reversed.

The first and second layers of the mattress core may be such that by changing the first and second layers relative to one another (rearrangement with respect to the respective support surfaces, as explained above), a changed overall comfort level or a changed overall comfort profile of the mattress is adjustable.

The term "comfort profile" in the sense of the application is understood in particular a profile of a degree of hardness, a degree of heat or other, the sleeping comfort of a user influencing property of the mattress. The terms "total hardness profile" or "hardness profile" can describe an overall degree of hardness or a degree of firmness of the mattress, that is to say a degree of firmness of the mattress sensible by a user when the user lies on the mattress. The terms "total hardness profile" or "hardness profile" may also describe one or more degrees of hardness of the mattress in predetermined spatial directions of the mattress, for example along a lying or lying surface of the mattress or in the thickness direction of the mattress. Generally, by rotating or turning the mattress or by rearranging the first and second reclosable openings of the shell, as exemplified above, a total hardness or total hardness profile can be adjusted by means of the individual degrees of hardness or hardness profiles of the respective layers of the mattress core , The terms "overall climate profile" or "climate profile" may accordingly describe an overall degree of heat or a degree of heat of the mattress, that is to say a degree of warmth of the mattress sensible by a user when the user lies on the mattress.

In various embodiments, the mattress in addition to the first and second layer also has a third layer, which has a third comfort profile, in particular a third hardness profile or a third air conditioning profile. The third comfort profile differs advantageously from the first comfort profile and the second comfort profile. The first to third layers are stacked in the thickness direction of the mattress. By setting up a third or possibly further layers of the mattress core next to the first and second layer, variability of the overall comfort profile of the mattress (optionally modular) can be changed or expanded. In the case of the execution of the mattress core with more than two, in particular with the three explained, layers (first to third layer) allow the first and the second reclosable opening due to their spaced arrangement in the thickness direction of the mattress each have access to one or more external ( peripheral) layers of the mattress core which are stacked in opposite outer regions of the mattress core in the thickness direction of the mattress. In this way, via the first and second resealable opening of the sheath each peripheral arranged layers of the mattress core to be replaced or rearranged without having to take out a arranged in the thickness direction middle region (one or more middle layers of the mattress core) from the shell.

In various embodiments of the mattress with the at least one third layer adjacent to the first and second layers of the type discussed above, the second layer and the third layer are fixed together. The third layer may for example be glued to the second layer, interwoven, zipper or Velcro or otherwise connected. The first layer and the composite of the second and third layers are interchangeable in these embodiments, i. Loosely placed on each other, arranged in the shell. In this way, the first layer and the composite of the second and third layer can be arranged variably by means of access to the mattress core via the first and second reclosable opening in the shell according to the manner explained above.

For example, the composite of the second and third layers may be configured to form a base of the mattress core, while the first layer may be variably disposed with respect to the respective bearing surfaces of the composite of the second and third layers (opposed outer surfaces of the composite) can be. The first layer may, for example, be set up as a so-called "Softener". Thus, by sequentially opening the envelope by means of the first and second reclosable apertures of the type discussed above, the first layer can be placed in relation to the second and third layer by simply removing the first layer from a first position, turning the mattress, and reinserting the first layer can be changed to a second position. The composite of the second and third layer need not be removed from the shell and can remain in the shell, with only the first layer is virtually rearranged around the composite of the second and third layer around. This allows a user to easily, comfortably and quickly adapt the overall comfort profile of the mattress to one another by adjusting the various positions of the mattress core or to adjust it to their individual sleeping needs.

In various embodiments, the first reclosable opening and the second reclosable opening of the sheath are each configured as at least partially circumferential zipper systems. Thus, the first and second resealable opening are easy to open and close again. As an alternative to a zipper system, the first and / or the second reclosable opening may be configured as Velcro fasteners, as snap closures or the like. The first and / or the second reclosable opening may be configured to extend along a portion of a side surface of the mattress formed as an outer boundary by the sheath. Alternatively, the first and / or second reclosable openings may be configured to extend along an entire outer side surface and optionally beyond the outer side surface into a region of further side surfaces. The respective openings may also be arranged to completely circulate a circumference of the mattress on all side surfaces of the mattress. In these embodiments, the sheath may be configured to include at least three parts connectable or separable from each other via the first and second reclosable apertures. For example, the sheath may comprise an upper part, a middle part and a lower part, wherein the upper part and the middle part are connectable or separable from each other via the first reclosable opening, and wherein the middle part and the lower part are recloseable over the second Opening are connected to each other or separable from each other.

In alternative embodiments, in which the first and second reclosable openings are only configured as partially circulating openings on the envelope, the envelope is made in one piece, but can be correspondingly opened at the first and second reclosable openings.

In various embodiments, the first resealable opening and the second resealable opening of the sheath are each disposed in an edge region of one or more side surfaces of the mattress, wherein the one or more side surfaces are disposed perpendicular to a first lying surface and a second lying surface of the mattress. The first lying surface and the second lying surface are arranged parallel to each other at a distance from the thickness of the mattress in the thickness direction. The respective edge region of the one or more side surfaces of the mattress is advantageously dimensioned such that the first or second resealable opening are arranged near the first or second lying surface of the mattress, but without disturbing a user lying on the first or second lying surface of the mattress to obstruct or otherwise impair. In this way, a user's sleeping comfort is prevented from being impaired by the first or second reclosable opening in the edge region of the one or more side surfaces of the mattress. At the same time allows the arrangement of the first and second reclosable opening in the respective edge region near the first and second lying surface access to the accommodated in the shell mattress core in a respective periphery of the mattress core, so that peripherally stacked layers of the mattress core are easily accessible. In this way, in particular the outer layers of the mattress core are accessible through the respective first and second resealable opening, in order to be able to exchange (remove or insert) them well in their arrangement with respect to the further layers of the mattress core. For example, the first and second reclosable openings may be configured on the sheath such that they are disposed in an edge region 1 to 5 cm apart from the first and second reclining surfaces at the one or more side surfaces of the mattress.

The above object is achieved according to a second aspect by a method for adjusting an overall comfort profile of a mattress according to claim 7.

• - Öffnen einer einen Matratzenkern umgebenden Hülle an einer ersten wiederverschließbaren Öffnung, die einer oberen ersten Liegefläche der Matratze am nächsten ist, wobei der Matratzenkern zumindest eine erste Lage und eine zweite Lage aufweist, wobei die erste Lage ein erstes Komfortprofil, insbesondere ein erstes Härteprofil oder ein erstes Klimaprofil, aufweist und die zweite Lage ein zweites Komfortprofil, insbesondere ein zweites Härteprofil beziehungsweise ein zweites Klimaprofil, aufweist, dass sich vom ersten Komfortprofil unterscheidet, wobei die erste Lage und die zweite Lage in einer Dickenrichtung der Matratze gestapelt und austauschbar in der Hülle angeordnet sind, und wobei die erste Lage der ersten wiederschießbaren Öffnung am nächsten angeordnet ist, sodass die erste wiederverschließbare Öffnung einen Zugang zur ersten Lage ermöglicht,
• - Herausnehmen der ersten Lage an der ersten wiederverschließbaren Öffnung aus der Hülle,
• - Verschließen der ersten wiederverschließbaren Öffnung,
• - Wenden der Matratze,
• - Öffnen der den Matratzenkern umgebenden Hülle an einer zweiten wiederverschließbaren Öffnung, wobei die erste wiederverschließbare Öffnung und die zweite wiederverschließbare Öffnung in einer Dickenrichtung der Matratze voneinander beabstandet angeordnet sind und wobei die zweite wiederverschließbare Öffnung nach Wenden der Matratze einer nun oberen zweiten Liegefläche der Matratze am nächsten ist,
• - Einsetzen der herausgenommenen ersten Lage an der zweiten wiederverschließbaren Öffnung in die Hülle, sodass die erste Lage und die zweite Lage in der Dickenrichtung der Matratze erneut gestapelt sind.

The method comprises the following steps:

• Opening a casing surrounding a mattress core at a first resealable opening which is closest to an upper first lying surface of the mattress, the mattress core having at least a first layer and a second layer, the first layer having a first comfort profile, in particular a first hardness profile or a first air conditioning profile, and the second layer has a second comfort profile, in particular a second hardness profile or a second climate profile, that differs from the first comfort profile, wherein the first layer and the second layer in a thickness direction of the mattress stacked and interchangeable in the shell and wherein the first layer is located closest to the first re-fireable aperture such that the first reclosable aperture provides access to the first layer;
• Removing the first layer from the envelope at the first reclosable opening,
• Closing the first resealable opening,
• - turning the mattress,
• Opening the mattress core surrounding sheath at a second reclosable opening, wherein the first reclosable opening and the second reclosable opening in a thickness direction of the mattress are spaced from each other and wherein the second reclosable opening after turning the mattress of a now upper second mattress surface of the mattress next is,
• - Inserting the removed first layer at the second reclosable opening in the shell, so that the first layer and the second layer in the thickness direction of the mattress are stacked again.

Such a method allows easier, more comfortable and faster adaptation of a total comfort profile of the mattress. In particular, by means of the described measures, the first layer can be changed in a simple manner by sequentially opening and closing the first and second resealable openings (possibly with the mattress turning therebetween) in their position or support surface relative to the second layer (with respect to position or support surface) , By the method explained, the first layer is exchanged with respect to the second layer from a first position or a first bearing surface with respect to the second layer to a second position or second bearing surface. The first and second bearing surfaces of the second layer may form a respective outside of the second layer. In this way, a total comfort profile of the mattress is adjusted quickly and easily.

In the method, by sequentially opening and closing the first and second reclosable openings and turning the mattress, only a desired layer (peripheral layer, first layer) must be removed from the sleeve and reinserted into the sleeve to rearrange this layer with respect to the other To reach mattress cores without all involved layers must be removed from the shell, rearranged and reinserted into the shell. For the other advantages of the described method, reference is made to the above statements by analogy.

In various embodiments of the method, the mattress core in addition to the first and second layer on a third layer having a third comfort profile, in particular a third hardness profile or a third climate profile, which differs from the first comfort profile and the second comfort profile. Before carrying out the above-described measures, the first, second and third layers are stacked in this order in the thickness direction of the mattress, and after performing the above-explained measures, the first, third and second layers are stacked in this order in the thickness direction of the mattress , In this way, the position of the first layer is exchanged from a first position on the second layer to a second position on the third layer, wherein only the first layer must be removed from the sleeve and reinserted into the sleeve (see above measures). In this way, an order / combination of the individual comfort profiles of the first to third position can be varied in a simple manner, wherein the first position is changed with respect to its orientation to the second or third position. By recombination of the individual comfort profiles of the first to third layer in the thickness direction of the mattress, the overall comfort profile of the mattress can thus be changed or adjusted.

In various embodiments, for example, the second and third layers may be connected as a composite, while the first layer is interchangeable with respect to the composite of the second and third layer in position to respective bearing surfaces of the composite of the first and third layer variable. Again, reference is made to this in analogy to the above explanations.

Advantageous developments, further aspects and embodiments are disclosed in the subclaims. All of the features, aspects, and aspects of the mattress discussed above are reflected in corresponding measures, aspects, and implementations of the method discussed above, and vice versa.

Every zipper system 6 and 7 (with the appropriate zippers 8th and 9 ) has a width of 11 mm. The distance in the thickness direction of the two zipper systems 6 and 7 is exemplary 98 mm.

3 shows a mattress core 10 as he is in the mattress 1 according to 1 can be set up. 3 shows a first configuration of the mattress core 10 , The mattress core 10 has a total of three layers 11 . 12 and 13 in that order from a top of the mattress core 10 Her viewed in the thickness direction of the mattress 1 (see 1 ) are stacked. The mattress core 10 may be configured such that the first layer 11 loose on the second layer 12 rests, with the second layer 12 and the third location 13 are fixed to each other and thus form a composite. A fixation of the second and third layer 12 and 13 can be done for example by another zipper system (not shown) or a Velcro system or the like. The first location 11 may be, for example, a so-called "softener". The first location 11 may be provided with a protective cover, which, for example, also via a zipper system (not shown) via an inner core of the first layer 11 (also not shown) is pulled over.

The first location 11 can be made for example of a visco-elastic foam. The layers 12 respectively 13 may be made of cold foam and / or visco-elastic foam or a combination thereof. For example, the location 12 Made of glued visco-elastic foam and cold foam while the location 13 made of cold foam. Other combinations and design options are also conceivable.

The layers 11 . 12 and 13 have different degrees of hardness or hardness profiles in the described embodiment. In the embodiment of the mattress core 10 according to 3 indicates the first location 11 a soft on soft, while the second layer 12 a hardness medium and the third layer 13 has a hardness Firm. Thus, the first location 11 a soft degree of hardness, the location 12 a medium degree of hardness and the location 13 a hard degree of hardness.

Because of that, the first layer 11 loose on the composite of the second and third layer 12 and 13 rests, by interchanging the positions of the layers 11 . 12 and 13 the total hardness profile of the mattress core 10 or the mattress 1 according to 1 changed and adapted. In this way, a user can adjust the total hardness to his individual sleep needs, so that maximum sleeping comfort can be ensured.

According to the configuration in 4 became the position of the first location 11 changed, so that they no longer, as in 3 shown on the second layer 12 but now to the third situation 13 adjoins and thus (from the illustrated underside) on the third layer 13 rests. This was the order of the layers 11 to 13 modified, so now from a top of the mattress core 10 looked at in 4 the layers 12 . 13 and 11 arranged in this order. From the bottom of the mattress core 10 Seen her results in the order of the layers 11 . 13 and 12 , Thus, in contrast to the configuration according to 3 in the configuration according to 4 the individual hardness profiles of the layers 11 . 12 and 13 Regarding the stacking of the individual layers recombined, so according to 4 another overall degree of hardness or another overall hardness profile of the mattress core 10 opposite to the configuration 3 results. In this way, the total hardness profile of the mattress core 10 variably adaptable to individual sleep needs of a user.

For simplified adaptation of the mattress core 10 , especially between the two in 3 and 4 shown configurations, is below on the 5 to 8th Referenced.

5 shows a side view of part of the mattress 1 or the shell 2 according to 1 and 2 , In this case, the mattress according to 5 the configuration of the mattress core 10 according to 3 wherein, viewed from an upper side along a thickness direction of the mattress, the layers 11 . 12 and 13 are stacked. In 5 are the two zipper systems 6 and 7 Schematically opened, giving a user access to the internal layers 11 . 12 and 13 receives.

6 shows the part of the mattress according to 5 , with the mattress core 10 according to the configuration 4 is set up, wherein viewed from an upper side of the layers 12 . 13 and 11 are stacked in the thickness direction of the mattress. Also according to 6 are the zipper systems 6 and 7 partially opened, allowing a user access to the respective layers 11 . 13 and 12 receives.

A user can now proceed as follows to make a configuration of the mattress (cf. 3 and 5 ) in a configuration of the mattress (cf. 4 and 6 ) rebuild. For this purpose, the user takes the mattress according 5 and opens the case 2 (please refer 1 ) on the zipper system 6 such that the upper part of the shell 2 (on the bed 3a) can be removed or uncovered. This gives the user access to the peripheral first layer 11 , as in 5 shown. 5 illustrates the different degrees of hardness soft (S), medium (M) and firm (F) of the layers 11 . 12 and 13 in this order. 5 For example, it represents an overall hardness profile medium-soft (M-) when a user lies on the upper lying surface 3a ,

By opening the zipper system 6 the user can be the first location 11 from the shell 2 then take out the zipper system 6 closed again. Until that time, the zipper system 7 (contrary to the illustration according to 5 ) if necessary completely closed. The user can now use the mattress 1 turn 180 °, so that now against the 5 and 6 the first lying area 3a below and the second sleeping area 3b are arranged above. Then the user opens the zipper system 7 such that the now overhead part of the shell (the second lying surface 3b forms) can be completely opened or removed. As a result, the user enters the third layer 13 contrary (compare also 5 and 6 ). The user can now view the previously removed location 11 on the third position 13 hang up or in the shell 2 Insert. If necessary, it requires some pressure to the location 13 to push something down, leaving room for the location 11 is created. That's the location 11 now on the location 13 on and over the shell 2 in the mattress 1 (please refer 1 ). Subsequently, the shell 2 with the zipper system 7 completely closed again. In this situation is the zipper system 6 already completely closed again.

After performing these actions, the order of stacking the layers was determined 11 . 12 and 13 (please refer 3 ) in the order of stacking the layers 12 . 13 and 11 (please refer 4 ) reversed. See also the 5 and 6 as well as the above explanations. The mattress 1 can then optionally be turned again, so in turn the first lying surface 3a above and the second lying area 3b arranged below, like 6 represents. According to the configuration in 6 is thus the second location 12 with the hardness medium (M) on top, followed by the third layer 13 with the firmness firm (F) and at the bottom with the situation 11 with the hardness soft (S). The configuration according to 6 describes, for example, the degree of hardness medium (M) when resting a user on the upper deck surface 3a , Of course, a conversion of the mattress according to the configuration according to 6 in the configuration according to 5 carried out analogously.

In addition to a conversion of the mattress 1 from a configuration of the mattress core 10 according to the 3 and 5 and their explanations to a configuration of the mattress core 10 according to the 4 and 6 and their explanations for adjusting the overall hardness profile of the mattress 1 can the overall hardness profile of the mattress 1 be adapted or changed in any other way. This may be the mattress 1 (please refer 1 ) simply turned around, that is to say turned by 180 °, so that once the first lying surface 3a is arranged on the top and once the lying surface 3b is arranged on the top. A user of the mattress 1 can thus either on the first lying surface 3a or on the second lying surface 3b (depending on which lying surface is above). This means with reference to the configurations according to the 3 and 5 respectively 4 and 6 in that, by turning the mattress by 180 ° in conjunction with a change in the configurations according to the manner explained above, a total of four different total hardness profiles of the mattress 1 can be specified.

The mattress according to 5 describes, as explained above, a degree of hardness medium-soft (M-), wherein the layers 11 and 12 lie at the top and the location 13 is below. The lying area 3a is the top of the mattress on which the user can lie. Is the mattress according to 5 turned around, that is turned by 180 °, so now lies the second lying surface 3b above, with the user now on the lying surface 3b can lie. Thus, now is the third layer 13 arranged at the top, followed by the location 12 and at the bottom of the situation 11 (compare configuration according to 5 turned 180 °). This allows the mattress of a hardness medium-soft (M-) according to 5 be changed to a hardness firm (F).

An analogous procedure may be used in relation to the mattress according to 6 be performed. Turn the mattress according to 6 around, ie, it turns by 180 °, so now lies the second lying surface 3b above and the first lying area 3a below. A user may be on the second couch surface 3b lie. This allows the mattress of a degree of hardness medium (M) according to 6 be changed to a degree of hardness medium-firm (M +), because with reversed mattress then the first layer 11 followed by the third location 13 and finally the second location 12 are arranged as lowermost layer (compare configuration according to 6 turned 180 °).

In this way, four different total hardness profiles can be specified: medium-soft (M), medium (M), medium-firm (M +) and firm (F). In addition to a reconstruction of the mattress according to the explanations to the 3 and 5 respectively 4 and 6 Thus, the total hardness profile of the mattress can also be adjusted or changed by a predetermined order of stacking of the corresponding layers 11 to 13 by reversing the mattress is reversed, so that a different overall hardness profile is given.

The 5 and 6 additionally illustrate an indication of the different degrees of hardness for a user. For this are followers 14 and 15 provided by the zippers 8th and 9 (see 1 and 2 ) of the zipper systems 6 and 7 are attached and show a user the appropriate degrees of hardness. For example, a trailer 14 indicate a degree of hardness medium or medium-soft, while another trailer 15 indicates a degree of hardness medium-firm or firm. The followers 14 and 15 are purely optional and can be used in the embodiments according to 5 and 6 also omitted. A corresponding indication can also be made in another way, for example by the use of adhesive labels.

The 7 and 8th illustrate once again the overall arrangement of the mattress 1 with the shell 2 , being a part of the shell 2 to illustrate the individual layers 11 to 13 of the mattress core 10 is cut free. 7 shows the overall arrangement of the mattress 1 with the mattress core 10 according to the configuration in 3 (compare also 5 ), while 8th the overall arrangement of the mattress 1 with the mattress core 10 according to the configuration in 4 shows (compare also 6 ).

The mattress 1 or the method for adjusting an overall hardness profile of the mattress 1 the type explained have the advantage over conventional solutions that by the appropriately designed and furnished shell 2 a user easily individual layers (example, the location 11 ) in their arrangement or position with respect to the other layers (here by way of example the layers 12 and 13 ) can change the overall hardness profile of the mattress 1 adapt. The shell can 2 over the resealable openings 6 and 7 be opened sequentially, so that the appropriate location (exemplary position 11 ) and at a different position with respect to the stacked further layers (exemplary layers 12 and 13 ) can be rearranged or arranged. A user only needs a layer whose arrangement he wants to change from the shell 2 remove or put back into the shell, without all layers involved from the shell 2 take out, rearrange and put back in the shell. Thus, the mattress allows 1 or the method of the type described here a comfortable, quick and easy conversion of the mattress 1 to adapt a total hardness profile to an individual's sleep needs. In addition to these measures, the mattress can 1 also be turned by 180 ° to the respective orders of the individual layers ( 11 . 12 and 13 ), so that in addition to a new arrangement of the stacked layers by reversing the orders also further total hardness profiles are adaptable or can be specified.

The invention has been described above on the adaptation of a degree of hardness of the mattress 1 explained. In an alternative embodiment, the two or more layers ( 11 . 12 and 13 ) different climatic or thermal levels. For example, textiles with different insulation behavior or sweat absorption behavior can be used to produce a subjectively warming situation or cooling position for a user. In a similar manner as described above with respect to the adjustment of the degree of hardness in this embodiment, a climatic or thermal degree of a mattress can be adapted to the needs of a user in a simple and varied manner.

The illustrated embodiments are chosen by way of example only. The mattress 1 can be more or less than the three layers shown 11 . 12 and 13 exhibit. The more layers are set up, the more total comfort profiles can be specified by the measures described.
