Abstract

A bedding includes: a cushion layer which is formed with a filament three-dimensional bonded member and which is breathable; a breathable water-repellent layer which is provided on the upper side of the cushion layer and which is breathable and water-repellent; and a breathable water-retentive layer which is provided on the upper side of the breathable water-repellent layer and which is water-retentive and is breathable during water retention.

Claims (24)

1. A bedding in which on an upper side of a breathable cushion layer, a breathable water-repellent layer and a breathable water-retentive layer for reducing infiltration of water into the cushion layer are provided,

wherein the cushion layer is formed with a filament three-dimensional bonded member,

the breathable water-repellent layer is a porous fabric or a porous knitted fabric formed of one or two or more hydrophobic fibers selected from a polyester fiber, a nylon fiber, an acrylic fiber, a polyester fiber on which water-repellent processing is performed, and a fluorocarbon fiber on which water-repellent processing is performed, or the breathable water-repellent layer is a porous sheet formed of a polytetrafluoroethylene,

the breathable water-repellent layer has a breathability of equal to or more than 150 c 3 /n 2 ·s in an amount of air passing through the breathable water-repellent layer at a pressure difference of 125 Pa,

the breathable water-retentive layer is a porous fabric or knitted fabric formed of one or two or more hydrophilic fibers selected from a cotton fiber, a hemp fiber and a rayon fiber,

the breathable water-retentive layer has a breathability of equal to or more than 150 cm 3 /cm 2 ·s in an amount of air passing through the breathable water-retentive layer in a state where 80 g of water is retained per 20 cm×20 cm at a pressure difference of 125 Pa,

the breathable water-retentive layer is provided on an upper side of the breathable water-repellent layer,

the breathable water-retentive layer absorbs water present in a hole portion of the breathable water-repellent layer by attracting water in an interface between the breathable water-retentive layer and the breathable water-repellent layer, and enhances breathability.

2. The bedding according to claim 1 , wherein the breathable water-repellent layer is a porous fabric or a porous knitted fabric formed of hydrophobic fibers in which 1,000 to 10,000 holes having a diameter of 0.5 to 2 mm are formed per 100 square centimeters, whose thickness is 0.5 to 5 mm, or

the breathable water-repellent layer is a porous sheet formed of polytetrafluoroethylene in which 300 to 3,000 holes having a diameter of 1 to 2 mm are formed per 100 square centimeters, whose thickness is 0.5 to 2 mm.

3. The bedding according to claim 1 , wherein the breathable water-retentive layer is a porous fabric or a porous knitted fabric in which 100 to 3,000 holes having a diameter of 1 to 5 mm are formed per 100 square centimeters, whose thickness is 0.5 to 5 mm.

4. The bedding according to claim 2 , wherein the breathable water-retentive layer is a porous fabric or a porous knitted fabric in which 100 to 3,000 holes having a diameter of 1 to 5 mm are formed per 100 square centimeters, whose thickness is 0.5 to 5 mm.

5. A bedding cover sheet which is removable with respect to a cushion member that is breathable and which forms bedding together with the cushion member,

wherein the bedding cover sheet is formed such that the breathable water-retentive layer is arranged on an upper side of the breathable water-repellent layer to reduce infiltration of water into the cushion layer,

the breathable water-repellent layer is a porous fabric or a porous knitted fabric formed of one or two or more hydrophobic fibers selected from a polyester fiber, a nylon fiber, an acrylic fiber, a polyester fiber on which water-repellent processing is performed, and a fluorocarbon fiber on which water-repellent processing is performed, or the breathable water-repellent layer is a porous sheet formed of a polytetrafluoroethylene,

the breathable water-repellent layer has a breathability of equal to or more than 150 cm 3 /cm 2 ·s in an amount of air passing through the breathable water-repellent layer at a pressure difference of 125 Pa,

the breathable water-retentive layer is a porous fabric or knitted fabric formed of one or two or more hydrophilic fibers selected from a cotton fiber, a hemp fiber and a rayon fiber,

the breathable water-retentive layer has a breathability of equal to or more than 150 cm 3 /cm 2 ·s in an amount of air passing through the breathable water-retentive layer in a state where 80 g of water is retained per 20 cm×20 cm at a pressure difference of 125 Pa,

the breathable water-retentive layer is provided on an upper side of the breathable water-repellent layer,

the breathable water-retentive layer absorbs water present in a hole portion of the breathable water-repellent layer by attracting water in an interface between the breathable water-retentive layer and the breathable water-repellent layer, and enhances breathability.

6. The bedding cover sheet according to claim 5 , wherein the breathable water-repellent layer is a porous fabric or a porous knitted fabric formed of hydrophobic fibers in which 1,000 to 10,000 holes having a diameter of 0.5 to 2 mm are formed per 100 square centimeters, whose thickness is 0.5 to 5 mm, or

the breathable water-repellent layer is a porous sheet formed of polytetrafluoroethylene in which 300 to 3,000 holes having a diameter of 1 to 2 mm are formed per 100 square centimeters, whose thickness is 0.5 to 2 mm.

7. The bedding cover sheet according to claim 5 , wherein the breathable water-retentive layer is a porous fabric or a porous knitted fabric in which 100 to 3,000 holes having a diameter of 1 to 5 mm are formed per 100 square centimeters, whose thickness is 0.5 to 5 mm.

8. The bedding cover sheet according to claim 6 , wherein the breathable water-retentive layer is a porous fabric or a porous knitted fabric in which 100 to 3,000 holes having a diameter of 1 to 5 mm are formed per 100 square centimeters, whose thickness is 0.5 to 5 mm.
