Cl. 317 7 Claims ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A device for providing disposable sheets for beds from continuous rolls mounted at an end of the bed beneath the frame supporting mattress consisting of a container completely enclosed except for a narrow slot for paying out the sheet up and over the mattress.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The gist of the invention is the use of a roll of severable, disposable, continuous bed sheet in which a bottom sheet is drawn from a container located adjacent the head and beneath the frame supporting the mattress and a top sheet is drawn from a container located adjacent the foot of the bed and similarly located beneath the frame.
An object of the invention is to provide a novel bed attachment so that soiled, disposable bed sheets can be quickly and easily removed and new sheets quickly dispensed from containers located on the bed and easily placed over the mattress.
Another object is to provide disposable sheets in a dispenser for hospital beds so that costly laundry facilities in hospitals and rest homes can be eliminated or greatly reduced. A further object is to provide dispensers for sheets located on beds so that sheet storage facilities 1 can be virtually eliminated.
A still further object is to provide a sheet dispenser which reduces the drudgery of the operation of changing sheets.

3,466,679 Patented Sept. 16, 1969 DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT The attachment of the present invention for a bed 1 including a mattress 3 supported by a frame 5 consists briefly of: a first container 7 mounted beneath and at the end 9' of the frame, the container extending substantially the width of the frame forming an enclosure formed with a traverse slot 11; a first sheet roll 13 providing a disposable bottom sheet 15 for the mattress and having a width less than the length of the first container, the bottom sheet being folded on the roll and heaving an extended width exceeding the sum of the width and twice the thickness of the mattress, the sheet having a length equal to a plurality of bed lengths and being severable into single sheet length after being drawn over the mattress and mounting means connected to said container for securing said container to said frame.
A container 7' may also be mounted beneath and at the foot end 12 of the frame, the container extending substantially the width of the frame and forming an enclosure formed with a transverse slot 11'; a second sheet roll 19 providing a disposable top sheet 21 for the bed and having a width less than the length of the second container, the top sheet being folded on the roll and having an extended width exceeding the sum of the width and twice the thickness of the mattress, the sheet having a length equal to a plurality of bed lengths, and being severable into single sheet lengths after being drawn over the mattress; and mounting means connected to the container for securing the container to the frame.
This invention envisions the use of sheeting material which may be supplied in long rolls equal to a plurality of single sheets. Several options are possible in the type of material used, but it is essential that single sheets be severable from the long roll. Linen, cotton and other textile materials which are too expensive to be disposable would of course need to be joined by tape or loosely stitched together. Primarily, however, it is envisioned that the sheet material to be used would be paper or some other throw away material. The recent invention 'by Karl Kryer, Denmarks professional inventor, of a new way of assembling cellulose fibers to produce a paper which can be profiled to produce a material exhibiting the characteristics of such textiles as silk, corduroy, flannel and thick velvet is an example of a throwaway material. Tests have already been made that demonstrate that disposable bed linen is possible with the new process. It has been found further that this material can be waterproofed on one side, and profiled with a raised circle pattern on the other, which makes the material comfortable. Mr. Krye r anticipates that within a short time we anticipate that all laundries in existing hospitals will be converted to incinerating departments for heating purposes.
Although the present invention may find its first use for hospital beds, the invention could also be used in motels, rest homes, summer cottages and other vacationtype housing where the reuse of bed linen is inconvenient and the increased cost of disposable linen is not an economic problem. Eventually, this invention could be used on beds in private homes.
The material used in producing the container may be sheet metal, plastic, fiberboard or other material which will give the desired rigidity to hold the sheet rolls.
In order to prevent the contamination of the sheet rolls by dirt or other airborne contamination, the slots in each container are covered by spring loaded elongated members 23 and 23'. Springs 25 and 25' provide the frictional engagements between the aforementioned members and the sheets as they are withdrawn from the containers and maintain a tension on the sheets in use. Various spring arrangements may be utilized depending upon type of material used and one form is shown in FIGURES 7 and 6 in which members 23 and 23' are provided with I- shaped legs 27 and 27', respectively, which are in turn received by I-shaped legs 29 and 29' formed on numbers 31 and 31 attached to the respective sides of containers 7 and 7'.
The container dispensers for the sheet rolls may in themselves be made from inexpensive throwaway type cartridges being sealed except for a single longitudinal slot, or they may be manufactured with closure means for inserting refill rolls. Depending upon the construction of the beds to which the containers are attached, the closure means may be formed in the end panels 33 or 33' or they may be formed with hinged walls hereafter more specifically described. The refill rolls 35 and 36 are separated from the roll in the dispense position by transverse members 37 and 37'. The containers are thus divided into a first compartment adjacent the slot for dispensing and a second compartment for storing the extra roll.
In the embodiment shown in the drawings, the frame supporting the mattress is hinged at pins 39 and 41 providing a raised head section 43, a stationary middle section 45 and a foot section 47 which may be raised or lowered. This feature of the bed provides for a wide opening closure means in which both the refill and dispensing roll may be easily inserted. Referring to FIGURE 7, the closure means consists of a side portion 49 hingedly mounted for pivotal movement about a pin 51 near the end of the container. The upper end of this portion is spaced from the remaining portion of the container for forming the transverse slot 11. A hinge member 53 is connected to portion 49, and a similar hinge member 55 is connected to slide 57.
The containers may be connected to the beds by any of several means. Disposable cartridges must necessarily be easily detachable from the frame, whereas containers formed for storage of refills may be more or less permanently affixed to the beds. As here shown, the containers may be easily removed from the beds or may be left in place. Container 7 is attached to frame member 43 by spring mounted straps 61, -62, 63 and 64. Offset portions, such as 6 and 7, clamp one end to the frame 43 and offset portions 68 and 69 clamp the other end. Container 7 is connected to portion 47 of the frame by means of spring straps 61', 62', 63, and 64. These straps are connected to the frame by offset portions 66' 67, 68' and 6?. Offset portions 66 and 67 are offset in the same general direction, whereas the offset portions of 66' and 67 for example are offset in opposite directions for clamping to the bed frame.
This invention sets forth containers which will dispense a bottom sheet of standard width or a contoured sheet having sides 16, and a top sheet having sides 22. having side 22.
