A pocket spring string, a pocket spring mattress core and a mattress. The pocket spring string includes: springs; cloth, which is folded and provided with welds to form multiple adjacent pockets, each pocket being provided with an opening, and the springs being received in the pockets respectively; and thread provided to stitch the openings so that the springs are packaged in the pockets in a compressed state. The pocket spring mattress core is formed by connection of the pocket spring strings, and the mattress includes a mattress cover and the pocket spring mattress core. Because the top and/or bottom of each pocket is provided with the opening which is stitched by the thread, when the thread is removed, the springs can be quickly separated from the pockets, so that the metal material and the cloth are separated without any special technical means.

A device and a method for manufacturing a pocket spring bed net. The device for manufacturing a pocket spring bed net includes a supply mechanism for providing sheet-like flexible materials; a spring string conveying mechanism with a first gap for clamping and conveying pocket spring strings; a glue spraying mechanism which sprays glue onto the sheet-like flexible materials and/or the pocket spring strings; and a pushing mechanism arranged in front of the spring string conveying mechanism and including at least one movable pushing and grasping component, where the pushing and grasping component pushes the sheet-like flexible materials and the pocket spring strings to be in contact with each other and bonded to form a pocket spring bed net. The embodiments improve the transportation cost and storage cost of pocket spring bed nets, and solve the problem that the pocket spring bed nets are difficult to compress and roll.

In order to manufacture an innerspring unit (31) comprising pocketed springs and having an increased stability at its edge regions, in a first step, an innerspring main body (30) comprising a plurality of first strings (14) of pocketed springs is provided. In a subsequent second step, at least one second string (13c, 13d) of pocketed springs is attached to a lateral surface of the innerspring main body (30), so that the at least one second string (13c, 13d) of pocketed springs extends in a longitudinal direction of the innerspring main body (30). The springs (13) of the at least one second string (13c, 13d) of pocketed springs have a spring characteristic or a spring geometry different from the springs of the plurality of first strings of the innerspring main body (30). The at least one second string (13c, 13d) of pocketed springs forms together with the innerspring main body (30) the innerspring unit (31).

A pocketed spring assembly comprises a plurality of parallel strings of individually pocketed springs. A dimensionally stabilizing substrate is secured to at least some of the strings on one of the top and bottom surfaces of the strings. A scrim sheet is secured to at least some of the strings on an opposed surface of the strings to maintain the positions of the strings. The dimensionally stabilizing substrate is laterally rigid enough to maintain length and width dimensions of the coil spring assembly. However, the dimensionally stabilizing substrate is flexible enough to allow the pocketed spring assembly to be roll packed for shipping.
