A cover layer of a fleece material for an innerspring unit comprising a plurality of pocketed springs is manufactured by supplying at least two longitudinal fleece webs, which extend substantially parallel in a longitudinal direction and are spaced from one another, and repeatedly attaching a transverse fleece web, which extends between the longitudinal fleece webs in a direction substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, to the longitudinal fleece webs. The transverse fleece web segments are attached to the longitudinal fleece webs such that they form together with the longitudinal fleece webs a frame-like structure serving as the cover layer.

An air-conditioned mattress includes a mat device, a cover device, and an air-conditioning device. The mat device includes a first mat configured as a three-dimensional structure made from a plurality of elastic thermoplastic filaments that are randomly tangled with each other. The thermoplastic filaments are fixedly connected at contact portions of the thermoplastic filaments in a way that through holes are formed at non-contact portions of the thermoplastic filaments. The cover device covers the mat device and contacts the top surface of the first mat, and the first mat is more air-permeable than the cover device. The air-conditioning device is disposed inside or outside the mat device and provides heated air flow or cooled air flow into the first mat.

Provided are protector articles, comprising: a plurality of sheets overlaid one to the next, the plurality of sheets comprising a bottommost sheet, a sheet comprising a comfort face and a barrier face, the comfort face comprising a biodegradable spunlace nonwoven material, the barrier face comprising a water-resistant biodegradable material, and at least one of the plurality of sheets being releasable (e.g., releasably attached) to the article. The articles can be used in bedding, apparel, and furniture.

An assembly for removing liquid from bedding, including a liquid impermeable layer portion, a padding portion disposed adjacent the liquid impermeable layer portion, and a suction conduit array portion operationally connected to the liquid impermeable pad portion and disposed between the liquid impermeable layer portion and the padding portion. A vacuum source is operationally connected to the suction conduit array portion. A liquid trap portion is operationally connected between suction conduit array portion and the vacuum source portion. A urine sensor and an electronic controller may be operationally connected between the suction conduit array and the vacuum source.

The invention relates to a piece of sleeping or reclining furniture, comprising a support element (2) for applying a padding or a mattress and at least one sensor (12) for detecting vibrations, movement, and/or sound. The piece of sleeping or reclining furniture is characterized in that the at least one sensor (12) is arranged at a section (120) of the support element (2) that is decoupled from further sections of the support element (2) and/or of the sleeping or reclining furniture.

A cushioning structure includes a first layer of a three-dimensional structured mat of extruded entangled filaments, the cushioning structure includes a second layer of a three-dimensional structured mat of extruded entangled filaments, and the cushioning structure includes an intermediate layer between the first layer of the three-dimensional structured mat and the second layer of the three-dimensional structured mat.

A three-layered topper for a bedding or seating product has a first piece of foam, a second piece of foam and a pocketed spring comfort layer therebetween. The pocketed spring comfort layer has individually pocketed mini coil springs. At least one of the foam pieces may be infused with metallic particles to improve thermal conductivity. Alternatively, at least one of the foam pieces may be infused with microencapsulated phase change materials to improve heat absorption. At least one of the foam pieces may have a coating to further improve thermal conductivity or heat absorption.

An inflatable bed is provided including an upper sheet, a lower sheet, a lateral confining sheet and a first internal sheet. The lateral confining sheet connects the upper sheet and the lower sheet to define an inflatable chamber. The upper sheet has a planar portion and an oblique portion. The planar portion of the upper sheet is connected to the lower sheet by means of the first internal sheet. The lateral confining sheet comprises a circumferential portion and an extension portion extending upward along an end of the circumferential portion. The extension portion and the oblique portion of the upper sheet are connected to form a backrest of the inflatable bed, and the backrest is internally provided with a second internal sheet which is used for connecting the oblique portion of the upper sheet to the extension portion of the lateral confining sheet. The inflatable bed may further include a third internal sheet, a fourth internal sheet and a fifth internal sheet which are regionally arranged in an inner part to form an integrated backrest.

A stretchable flame barrier panel including an interior stretch zone having elastomeric yarns extending across a fibrous base layer of textile fibers and optionally substantially stable lateral selvage zones outboard of the interior stretch zone. In a finished state, the interior stretch zone has substantial stretch and recovery in both the machine direction and the cross-machine direction.
