Definitions

  • the invention relates to a blanket, in particular down or feather blanket.
  • the cover has a first plate and a second plate, wherein the two plates are connected to a transverse seam and a longitudinal seam to form a cavity.
  • the cavity is divided by the longitudinal seam and the transverse seam into a plurality of first chambers and second chambers.
  • the first chamber is filled with a first filler and the second chamber with a second filler.
  • Blankets are mostly used for sleeping as a body pad and / or body pad. Especially as a body pad, blankets serve to warm the sleeping person and at the same time to carry off the moisture due to the transpiration of the sleeping person.
  • covers there are a variety of different types of covers for this purpose.
  • the blanket is divided into a plurality of cassettes, the cassettes being filled with down or feathers or fibers or natural or animal hairs.
  • coverings offer a very good thermal insulation, but it is disadvantageous that the exchange of air and the removal of moisture is limited. This has the consequence that for the sleeping an unpleasant sleeping climate, due to the warm and humid air under the blanket, sets. Consequently, a restless sleep results, resulting in an insufficient recovery effect for the sleeper.
  • there is the danger Covering during sleep so that the sleeping person cools down so that he gets a cold.
  • there is a removal of moisture over the filling so that the filler clumps over time.
  • EP 1 499 221 B1 goes out a blanket, which is provided with a plurality of ventilation openings, via which a removal of heat and moisture takes place.
  • the blanket has a flexible layer formed from a top panel and a bottom panel which incorporates down, fiber or natural hair or animal hair filling, the layer being perforated with a plurality of ventilation apertures each spanned by separate net screens.
  • the cover is disadvantageous in that due to the mesh grid, the cover is expensive to manufacture.
  • the blanket nestles due to the mesh grid worse to the contour of a sleeper so that the sleeping comfort is limited.
  • EP 1 499 221 discloses a cover according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • EP 0 059 881 A1 discloses a quilt having two panels which are circumferentially connected together and form a cavity. Between the plates, two partitions are inserted, which are connected in the longitudinal direction extending with the two plates. The partitions are connected together in the longitudinal direction and form a plurality of chambers. The chambers are filled with different fillers, wherein one of the fillers is feathers, foam or a mixture thereof and the other filler is down feathers.
  • a cover with a plurality of ventilation openings is disclosed.
  • the ventilation openings are formed by means of a sleeve inserted between an upper and lower plate, wherein each end a cylindrical holding sleeve is used so as to fix the sleeve between the upper and lower plate.
  • a protective cover may be provided which is fixed by means of further retaining sleeves inserted into the retaining sleeves.
  • the sleeve and the retaining sleeves are made of plastic.

  • the web construction on two of a flexible material webs, which overlap. In the area of the passage, one of the webs is not connected to the lower plate and the other web is not connected to the upper plate, so that when inserting a hopper, the webs can simply be pushed away and return to their original position after filling.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a blanket which ensures a high conformability and simultaneously provides for a reliable removal of heat and moisture.
  • the cover according to the invention in particular down or feather cover, comprises a first sheet of a flexible material, a second sheet of a flexible material, a first filler, a second filler, transverse seams extending substantially in a transverse direction, and longitudinal seams extending in a longitudinal direction.
  • the first plate and the second plate is connected to each other by means of the transverse seams and the longitudinal seams to form a cavity.
  • the cavity is divided by the transverse seams and the longitudinal seams into a plurality of first chambers and second chambers.
  • the first chamber is filled with the first filler and the second chamber with the second filler.
  • the cover according to the invention is characterized in that the second chamber is bounded by a transverse seam, that at least one second chamber is arranged between two longitudinal seams and that the first filler is down and / or feathers and the second filler is air.
  • the cover according to the invention is characterized in that the second chamber is a hollow chamber, which is preferably filled with air, wherein a removal of the heat and moisture takes place via the hollow chamber.
  • a blanket is created, which ensures a comfortable sleeping environment.
  • the cover ensures an advantageous conformability, since the second chamber is formed by the transverse seam. Consequently, the blanket leads to a pleasant sleep behavior, so that the sleeping person is better rested after sleep, recovered and more efficient.
  • Down and / or feathers as filler provide good thermal insulation, so that the sleeping person, in particular during the cold months, is sufficiently isolated.
  • the second filler air advantageously ensures a removal of the prevailing under the blanket heat and moisture.
  • the second chamber is circular in longitudinal section to ensure a pleasing visual appearance.
  • the transverse seam is orthogonal to the longitudinal seam.

  • cold bridges are avoided by the bridges.
  • the height of the first web and the height of the second web are each between 0.5 cm and 5 cm, preferably between 1 cm and 2 cm. Due to the web height, on the one hand, cold bridges are avoided and, on the other hand, cassettes or chambers are created which provide a sufficient volume for receiving a filler.
