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.

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.

A foundation for a bed system can include an actuator, a deck mechanism operably related to the actuator so as to be actuated between raised and lowered positions in response to actuation by the actuator, and a controller operably connected to the actuator and configured to drive the actuator to actuate the deck mechanism between a lower position and an upper position. The deck mechanism can be configured to move to a service position that is further than the upper position. The deck mechanism can expose and permit access to a serviceable component when the deck mechanism is in the service position. A method of using a foundation having a service position is also described.

This invention is a device which creates adjustable acoustic and/or thermal zones in a bed to address sleep issues such as bed partner snoring and hot flashes. Adjustable acoustic bed zones can be created with a flexible movable partition which longitudinally spans a bed from an arch at the head of the bed to an arch at the foot of the bed. Adjustable thermal bed zones can be created with inflow and outflow flexible longitudinal air tubes which are inserted into a space between layers of bedding.

A vehicle seat trim retainer that can be installed on a vehicle seat. The seat trim retainer includes a base retainer with a base retainer foundation and an inner flange. The base retainer foundation includes a stabilizing feature at one end and a base tip at an opposing end. The inner flange includes a C-shaped channel and a channel extender, with the channel extender including a channel flange.

A magnetic coupler for attaching a mattress to a bed foundation includes a magnet assembly, a target assembly, and a shunt. The magnet assembly includes a housing and a magnet, wherein the housing is configured to couple the magnet to the mattress. The target assembly is configured to couple a target to the foundation. The shunt is disposed within the housing of the magnet assembly or in the mattress. The magnet assembly and the target assembly are releasably attached when the magnet is magnetically coupled to the target.

The invention relates to an analyzing unit (9′) for connecting to at least one sensor (12) which can be coupled to sleeping or reclining furniture in order to detect vibrations, movement, and/or sound. The analyzing unit (9′) is designed to process and analyze the signals of the at least one sensor (12) and detect physiological parameters (P) of a person using the sleeping or reclining furniture, and the analyzing unit (9′) is designed to transmit data to or exchange data with at least one external component. The invention further relates to a method for analyzing signals of at least one such sensor (12) and to sleeping or reclining furniture, in particular a bed (1), comprising at least one such sensor (12).
