A sleeping cot has been disclosed herein. The sleeping cot may be partially installed in a front cabin of vehicles and deployed when needed. The sleeping cot includes metallic rods and a flexible mat that is removably attached to the metallic rods. The sleeping cot unit may further include front brackets attached to or adjacent the A-pillars of the vehicle and rear brackets attached to or adjacent the B-pillars of the vehicle. Further, one metallic rod is removably attached to the front brackets, and another metallic rod is removably attached to the rear brackets. Further, the flexible mat can be made firm by rotating one of the metallic rods within the brackets tightening the fabric mat wrapped around it. Further, the rotation and position of the metallic rod can be temporarily secured within the brackets to retain a firm mat.

A travel pillow has an integral head portion that can be positioned behind the head of the traveler during use. The travel pillow incorporates a charging station in one of the forwardly extending arms and a stress reliever in the opposing arm. A Bluetooth™ audio system is included to pair with selected electronic devices to enhance the entertainment of the traveler. The pillow also includes a central opening, corresponding for positioning the traveler's neck, which receives a removable snack bowl and lid, held in place within the central opening by a releasable closure device on the opposing arms of the travel pillow. The lid can be formed to receive an electronic device, such as a cell phone or a digital device generating sound received by the audio system. The head portion can be formed as an animal head with the stress reliever being the tail of the animal.

A pillow is provided herein which includes a cover having opposing first and second panels. A gusset perimetrically bounds, and joins, the first and second panels. The gusset is formed of an open cell construction. Compliant fill material is disposed within the cover. Advantageously, with the subject invention, a pillow is provided allowing for lateral ventilation between opposing panels. This permits a cooling effect while a user is resting or sleeping.

A substantially planar therapeutic pillow assembly for a user and a method for using the same to relieve neck pain of the user. The pillow includes a fabric outer surface assembly circumscribing a compressible inner portion. Two compressible and substantially cylindrical foam tube assemblies are parallelly disposed within the compressible inner portion, the first substantially cylindrical foam tube assembly and the second substantially cylindrical foam tube assembly having differing pliability to optimally support the user's neck. A depressed portion of the compressible inner portion is laterally disposed between the first substantially cylindrical foam tube assembly and the second substantially cylindrical foam tube assembly and is designed to support the user's head.

Warming blankets are provided, in which the warming blankets include (i) a perspiration absorptive layer (PAL); (ii) a metal coating layer (MCL); and (iii) a thermal absorptive layer (TAL); wherein the MCL is located directly or indirectly between the PAL and the TAL. Methods of producing a warming blanket are also provided.

A pillow includes a first pillow cushion consisting essentially of a gelatinous elastomer that is sized and configured to support a head and neck of a person using the pillow cushion and a second pillow cushion coupled thereto. The pillow cushion has deformable wall members located and configured to define voids therebetween such that the deformable wall members may be displaced into adjacent voids upon deformation of the deformable wall members. The deformable wall members are configured to buckle when a pressure applied to a cushioning surface of the first pillow cushion, in a direction perpendicular to a first major surface, exceeds a threshold pressure level. A pillow cover covers the first pillow cushion and the second pillow cushion. A method of fabricating a pillow includes enclosing such first and second pillow cushions in a pillow cover.

Methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for a heated body pillow are described. The pillow may receive, from a user device, one or more commands for adjusting an operating temperature of a heating element located inside an outer covering of the pillow. A power cord coupled to the heating element may be at least partially enclosed by a tubular shroud external to and coupled to the outer covering. The pillow may adjust the operating temperature of the heating element based on receiving the one or more commands.

Antiviral-treated fabric layers for mattress assemblies includes a silver halide and liposome carrier. Additionally, the envelope encapsulating a cushioning material can include an antiviral-treated fabric. The antiviral-treated fabric can include silver halide and a liposome carrier, wherein the liposome carrier is a vesicle.

The present invention is a bedding system that simultaneously: 1) simplifies the process of installing a fitted sheet; 2) simplifies the process of removing and reinserting a duvet from a duvet cover; 3) secures a duvet inside the cover so it does not shift, bunch, or fold inside the cover; and 4) allows a user to quickly and easily to make a bed with all parts neatly aligned. The system comprises: a fitted sheet with zippers, a duvet, a duvet cover, and optionally a flat sheet. The invention further comprises a plurality of magnets and/or thin ferrous metal plates that secure a duvet inside the cover such that it does not shift, bunch, or fold inside the cover and align the duvet cover with the fitted sheet.
