Cover apparatus and methods of assembling same
A first cover segment has top and bottom edge portions that have the same first predefined length. A second cover segment is coupled to the first cover segment to enable the cover apparatus to at least partially enclose a fixture element therein. The second cover segment includes first and second side portions such that top and bottom edge portions for the second cover segment are formed. The first side portion includes a first edge piece and the second side portion includes a second edge piece that is configured to extend at an angle with respect to an endpoint of the first edge piece such that, when the first side portion and the second side portion are coupled together, the bottom edge portion of the second cover segment has a second predefined length that is different than the first predefined length.
Bleach compatible polyolefin mattress cover
A bleach compatible mattress cover made of a non-woven polyolefin material and defining an interior cavity. The interior cavity configured to receive a mattress structure which may include a first and second support structure disposed in the interior cavity. In certain embodiments, the mattress cover has a Moisture Vapor Transfer Rate of greater than or equal 400 to less than 10,000, 7500 or more particularly less than 5000 grams per square meter per day and a hydrostatic head of 100 cm or greater and passes ASTM 1670 and ASTM 1671.
MATTRESS ASSEMBLY, SUBASSEMBLY, OR COMPONENTS THEREOF, AND METHOD OF MAKING SAME
Described herein is a method of forming a mattress (and product thereof) including providing a cover-top panel compact that includes a top panel having one or more filler layers and a drape that is affixed to the top panel at a first margin. The method entails detaching the drape at a second margin and inverting the drape to engage a supporting core, thereby completing the mattress assembly.
Mattress with flame barrier cap and related method
A mattress including a stretchable flame-retardant textile cap incorporating a top panel of flame retardant material operatively connected to a stitch-bonded flame retardant textile skirting with machine direction stretch and recovery properties disposed over a resilient mattress core to provided flame barrier protection to the mattress core.
Mattress with variable height and hardness and method for adjusting the height and hardness of the same
A mattress having variable height and hardness is disclosed. The mattress comprises a base layer held by a mattress cover using an extendable attachment system. The mattress further comprises one or more top layers made of resilient material which are stacked on top of the base layer. Only friction between the material of the top layers limit the lateral or longitudinal movements of a layer with regard to another layer.
Multi-layered segment mattress
A mattress embodying a removable exterior top and interchangeable segments (e.g. foam) positioned above a mattress base support portion and below the removable exterior top. The removable exterior top may be replaced with new or different removable exterior tops. Also, users have the ability to vary softness (i.e., firmness) or other characteristics (e.g., foam component construct) across the mattress by arranging or rearranging the interchangeable segments located directly below the removable and interchangeable mattress top. An exemplary base support portion may include a heavy duty pocketed inner-coil unit for motion transfer support and increased airflow.
Recreational mattress
A mattress has a cover sewn over a cushioned non-absorbent core and is suitable for use as a resting place or sleeping space. The core is made of a netted material having a plurality of tangled, partially bonded filaments. The cushions can have various densities separated by baffles inside the cover. The cover can have a built in or added back support system. The mattress is a self contained carry case and needs no additional carry bag. A detachable shoulder strap doubles to carry the mattress and as adjustable straps to adjust the back support system. The cushion is manufactured in various sizes for standard outdoor camping as well as sizes for standard indoor bedding.
Mattress with overlapping edge segments
A mattress 10 that provides an edge support feature that remains firmly supportive throughout bending of the mattress on an adjustable foundation, while also providing a flat, tailored finish for the side of the mattress. The mattress has a base, an upper surface, and two side walls extending between two end walls such that the base, upper surface, side walls, and end walls define a cavity comprising a mattress support, such as a spring unit, that supports the upper surface above the base. The side walls and/or end walls comprise an edge support system having a plurality of overlapping edge segments.
METHOD OF CHEMICAL TREATMENT ON NONWOVENS
Nonwovens having low-density and resilience have a chemical formulation applied on one surface (e.g., a top surface) by any of various application methods. Then, the chemical formulation is forced to move toward the opposite surface of the nonwoven (e.g., move downward through the nonwoven from top to bottom). The chemical-treated nonwoven is dried to fix the chemical on the nonwovens. Movement through the nonwoven is performed in a controlled fashion so that after drying the distribution of a chemical formulation throughout the nonwoven (e.g., from the top surface to the bottom surface of a nonwoven) is controlled.
Mattress Cover And Mattress Assembly
A mattress cover for a mattress providing movement therapy to a patient. A patient support portion covers the upper surface of the mattress, and a bottom portion is coupled to the patient support portion. The mattress cover may substantially encase the mattress. An augmenting feature is associated with a peripheral portion with the augmenting feature adapted to move between a stored configuration, and a deployed configuration in response to increasing thickness of the mattress during the movement therapy. The augmenting feature may include concertinaed material, such as thermoformed plastic, and/or a fold of material coupled to the peripheral portion. The patient support portion and the bottom portion may at least partially overlap and be moveable relative to one another. The mattress cover may be included on a mattress overlay having a patient turning device, or on the mattress supported on a patient support apparatus.
