[0012] The high-density environmental-protection buffering material
layer is made of high-density EPE composite material, including
high-density EPE composite material having a density smaller than
1, and is water-proof.
[0013] The outer packaging layer of the mattress is formed by a
combining antibacterial mite-proof fabric, a flexible material
layer, and an auxiliary material layer. The flexible material layer
is made of individualized and optional functional material, which
can be any material that is flexible and comfortable to sleep on,
including sponge, spray-bonded cotton, and latex cotton. The

convenient for the user to replace the activated carbon according
to requirements, thereby further enhancing the health effect of the
mattress. Meanwhile, the activated carbon air purifiers also
function as struts of the mattress, so as to enhance the
compression resistance of the mattress core and make the mattress
durable and nondeformable. The mattress, serving as a relief
supply, can float like a skiff, and is inflation free,
anti-puncture, and anti-collision. Moreover, the mattress is laid
with a light safety and stiff frame to prevent the mattress from
being deformed or bent, so as to further ensure the safety of the
mattress during use for life-saving purpose. Therefore, the present
invention provides a highly effective antibacterial, mite-proof,

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
First Embodiment
[0021] Referring to FIGS. 1 to 4, an outer packaging of the
mattress is formed by combining antibacterial mite-proof fabric 1,
an individualized and optional functional flexible material layer
2, and an individualized and optional auxiliary material layer 3.
An inner structure of the mattress is formed by high-density
environmental-protection buffering material layers 4 sandwiching an
activated carbon air-micro-circulation purification device 5. The
activated carbon air-micro-circulation purification device 5 is
made of EPE composite material having a certain thickness and
having a specific gravity smaller than 1. A safety and stiff frame
6 made of light metal is laid in the EPE composite material.
Several air holes 8 are prefabricated between the surface and
bottom of the EPE composite material, and several activated carbon
air purifiers 7 are embedded in the EPE composite material. The
activated carbon air purifiers are easily detachable, and filled
with an appropriate amount of high-grade coconut-shell activated
carbon 7-3. Matching covers 7-1 are respectively provided on two
ends of the activated carbon air purifier, and each cover is
prefabricated with activated carbon air purifier air holes 7-2.
[0022] The light metal frame is laid in the EPE composite material
layer, so as to enhance the overall stiffness and make the
life-saving function of the mattress more safe and reliable. The
activated carbon air purifiers disposed in the EPE composite
material layer can not only enhance the antibacterial,
moisture-proof, and deodorizing functions of the mattress, but also
serve as struts of the mattress, thereby greatly improving the
compression resistance of the mattress core and making the mattress
durable and nondeformable. The mattress is made of the
antibacterial mite-proof fabric, so that the use of the mattress is
safer, more salutary, and better satisfies the users' demands.
Second Embodiment
[0023] In the mattress in this embodiment, a safety and stiff frame
6 made of aluminum alloy may be designed into a grid form and laid
in ultra-thick EPE composite material of an activated carbon
air-micro-circulation purification device 5. The EPE composite
material is water-proof and has a density smaller than 1 and a
thickness approximately between 5 cm and 20 cm. The activated
carbon air purifiers may be designed into a column shape and serve
as struts of the mattress, thereby greatly improving the
compression resistance of the mattress core, and making the
mattress durable and nondeformable. An outer packaging layer of the
mattress is formed by combining antibacterial mite-proof fabric, a
flexible material layer, and an auxiliary material layer. The
flexible material layer is made of individualized and optional
functional material, which can be any material that is flexible and
comfortable to sleep on, including sponge, spray-bonded cotton, and
latex cotton. The auxiliary material layer is also made of an
individualized and optional auxiliary material, including textile
material and non-woven fabric. The specific implementation of this
embodiment is the same as First Embodiment, and the details thereof
may not be described herein again.
Third Embodiment
[0024] The specification of a test sample in this embodiment is as
follows: 1900 MM in length, 1500 MM in width, and 180 MM in
thickness. The test is carried out at a terrace of a building with
an area of 330 m.sup.2. The depth of water is 300 MM. The test
sample is soaked in water for six months, and the water temperature
is in a range between 4.degree. C. and 35.degree. C. The manned
buoyancy test is carried out in three stages in deep water of 300
MM with three people about 200 kg heavy standing on the sample, and
the density of the EPE buoyancy material is 28 kg/m.sup.3.
[0025] The sample is soaked in water and placed outdoors for six
months with a load of about 400 kg, the draft depth of the sample
is 165 MM, and a bearing safety standard is set to 500 kg/m.sup.3.
After being exposed to the wind, rain, and sun for a long time,
when being examined, the sample is found to be almost the same as
before except that the mattress body is slightly softer than its
initial state before being soaked in water, so that the sample
still maintains the major lifesaving function. With high-impact,
puncture, and tension tests, the material is proven to be ideal
material for manufacturing the lifesaving mattress.
[0026] The mattress product of the present invention is not limited
to the above embodiments, particularly the dimensions of the
product. Any product using the technical solutions of the present
invention shall fall within the protection scope of the claims of
the present invention.
