Process for making a cushion, a quilt, or the like, filling material cartridge suitable for carrying out the process, process for making the filling material cartridge, and envelope suitable for carrying out the process

摘要

A process is described for filling an envelope of a cushion, a quilt, or the like, which envelope is essentially closed envelope with a closable filling opening, and having a filling material of individual aggregates, e.g. fiber aggregates, down, feathers, pieces of foam material. The reversibly compressible aggregates, which are in a separate filling material cartridge that has a far smaller volume than the maximum volume of the envelope and which are thus under high pressure, are introduced into the envelope through the opening along with at least a part of the filling material cartridge, whereupon the filling material cartridge is opened inside the envelope and the envelope is filled as the aggregates expand out from the filling material cartridge. This novel filling operation can be carried out by the specialty retailer or even by the end customer without additional special filling equipment.
