Abstract

An apparatus for ventilating mattresses or mattress-like bolsters or cushions ( 1 ), with a ventilation apparatus that includes at least one air inlet, at least one ventilation means, which causes a directed flow of air, and at least one air outlet, wherein the air moisture can be adjusted to a certain air moisture, preferably a relative air moisture below 50% relative air moisture, by means of an air dehumidifier and/or an air humidifier, wherein the air can be introduced into the mattress ( 2 ) or the mattress-like bolster or cushion via the air outlet.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . An apparatus for ventilating mattresses or mattress-like bolsters or cushions ( 1 ), wherein the ventilation apparatus comprises:
 at least one air inlet,   at least one ventilation means, which causes a directed flow of air, and   at least one air outlet, wherein the air moisture can be adjusted to a certain air moisture, namely a relative air moisture below 50% relative air moisture, by means of an air dehumidifier and/or an air humidifier, wherein the air can be introduced into the mattress ( 2 ) or the mattress-like bolster or cushion via the air outlet.   
     
     
         2 . The apparatus for ventilating mattresses or mattress-like bolsters or cushions ( 1 ) according to  claim 1 , wherein the apparatus comprises a means for adjusting the air temperature to given values, preferably below 25° C., particularly preferably below 20° C., even more preferably below 15° C. 
     
     
         3 . The apparatus for ventilating mattresses or mattress-like bolsters or cushions ( 1 ) according to  claim 1 , wherein the apparatus comprises a means for introducing an insecticide or acaricide harmless for humans into the air to destroy mites. 
     
     
         4 . The apparatus for ventilating mattresses or mattress-like bolsters or cushions ( 1 ) according to  claim 1 , wherein the apparatus comprises a means which cleans the air. 
     
     
         5 . The apparatus for ventilating mattresses or mattress-like bolsters or cushions ( 1 ) according to  claim 4 , wherein the air cleaning means is a filter. 
     
     
         6 . The apparatus for ventilating mattresses or mattress-like bolsters or cushions ( 1 ) according to  claim 4 , wherein the air cleaning means is an inverter-type lamp. 
     
     
         7 . A mattress or mattress-like bolster or cushion ( 2 ) comprising:
 a cover, and   an inner portion,   wherein the mattress or the mattress-like bolster or cushion comprises an inlet, which can receive the air output from the apparatus for ventilating mattresses or mattress-like bolsters comprising at least one air inlet, at least one ventilation means, which causes a directed flow of air, and at least one air outlet,   wherein the air moisture can be adjusted to a certain air moisture, namely a relative air moisture below 50% relative air moisture, by means of an air dehumidifier and/or an air humidifier, and   wherein the air can be introduced into the mattress ( 2 ) or the mattress-like bolster or cushion via the air outlet.   
     
     
         8 . The mattress or mattress-like bolster or cushion ( 2 ) according to  claim 7 , wherein the air which is introduced into the cover has a certain relative air moisture, namely below 50%. 
     
     
         9 . The mattress or mattress-like bolster or cushion ( 2 ) according to  claim 7 , wherein the air which is introduced into the cover has a certain temperature, preferably below 25° C., particularly preferably below 20° C., even more preferably below 15° C. 
     
     
         10 . The mattress or mattress-like bolster or cushion ( 2 ) according to  claim 7 , wherein the air which is introduced into the cover includes an insecticide or acaricide harmless for humans to kill off mites. 
     
     
         11 . The mattress or mattress-like bolster or cushion ( 2 ) according to  claim 7 , wherein the air which is introduced into the cover has previously been cleaned again. 
     
     
         12 . The mattress or mattress-like bolster or cushion ( 2 ) according to  claim 7 , wherein the air from the apparatus for ventilating according to  claim 1  is introduced into means for air distribution, which distributes the air throughout the entire interior of the mattress or the mattress-like bolster or cushion. 
     
     
         13 . The mattress or mattress-like bolster or cushion ( 2 ) according to  claim 12 , wherein the air distribution means includes a perforated tube ( 3 ) into which the air is introduced, and which meanders throughout the entire interior of the mattress or mattress-like bolster or cushion. 
     
     
         14 . A system for destroying the habitat of mites in mattresses or mattress-like bolsters or cushions ( 2 ), comprising:
 a mattress or the mattress-like bolster or cushion, comprising a cover and an inner portion, wherein an inlet, which can receive air output and at least one air outlet, and   at least one apparatus for ventilating mattresses ventilation apparatus comprising at least one air inlet, at least one ventilation means, which causes a directed flow of air, and at least one air outlet, wherein the air moisture can be adjusted to a certain air moisture, namely a relative air moisture below 50% relative air moisture, by means of an air dehumidifier and/or an air humidifier, wherein the air can be introduced into the mattress ( 2 ) or the mattress-like bolster or cushion via the air outlet.   
     
     
         15 . A method for destroying the habitat of mites in mattresses, mattress-like bolsters or cushions according to  claim 7 , the method comprising:
 introducing air with a relative moisture content below 50% into the mattress or the mattress-like bolster or cushion with the aid of a ventilation apparatus comprising at least one air inlet, at least one ventilation means, which causes a directed flow of air, and at least one air outlet, wherein the air moisture can be adjusted to a certain air moisture, namely a relative air moisture below 50% relative air moisture, by means of an air dehumidifier and/or an air humidifier, wherein the air can be introduced into the mattress ( 2 ) or the mattress-like bolster or cushion via the air outlet.
