A mattress including a core having a corner positioned along a top surface of the core and extending along a head portion, a foot portion, and first and second side portions of the core, a perimeter rail structure that extends around a perimeter of the core to surround the core. The core is attached via the corner to the perimeter rail structure along the perimeter rail structure.

Snoring-preventing smart mattress system

The present invention relates to a smart mattress system for preventing snoring of a user, wherein a sleep posture of the user is determined and pressure of an air mattress and pressure of an air pillow are adjusted depending on the sleep posture of the user, whereby snoring of the user is stopped.

In one example, this disclosure describes an adjustable bed system that includes first and second adjustable foundations, at least one first motor to adjust the first adjustable foundation, at least one second motor to adjust the second adjustable foundation, a configurable device having a first state and a second state, and a central controller in communication with the device, the controller configured to receive an input representing one of the first state and the second state, the controller including a processor configured to control the at least one first motor and the at least one second motor based on the received input.

AUTOMATION FOR IMPROVED SLEEP QUALITY

Historical sleep metrics are accessed. Historical sensor data is accessed. Incidences of low quality sleep experienced by the user are identified. Particular environmental conditions that affected the user during the incidences of low quality sleep are identified. A corrective plan that specifies a change to an environmental control system to reduce the particular environmental conditions is created. The behavior of the environmental control system is modified such that the environmental control system reduces the particular environmental conditions when the user sleeps in the bed.

A housing defines a housing interior. An air pump is within the housing interior. A first set of dampers supports the air pump within the housing. The first set of dampers at least partially isolates vibration of the air pump from the housing. A second set of dampers is configured to at least partially isolate vibration of the air pump from the housing. The second set of dampers arranged in series with the first set of dampers.

USING FORCE SENSORS TO DETERMINE SLEEP PARAMETERS
20230115150 · 2023-04-13 ·

A support platform supports a mattress. The support platform includes legs. Force sensors are coupled to the legs or to the support platform. The force sensors are configured to sense a force applied to each leg or support platform. A controller is configured to receive at least one force stream from at least one of the force sensors. The at least one force stream represents a force sensed by the force sensor. The controller is configured to, in responses to receiving the at least one force stream, determine a sleep parameter from the following group of sleep parameters: bed presence, weight, heart rate, respiration rate, and motions. The controller is configured to output at least one or more of those parameters to an end user.

AIR MATTRESS WITH FEATURES FOR DETERMINING AMBIENT TEMPURATURE

Bladder pressure readings of bladder pressure inside an air bladder of a mattress are received for a particular time. Barometric pressure readings of barometric pressure in an ambient environment outside the mattress are received for the particular time. The bladder pressure and the barometric pressure readings are used as input to an ambient temperature classifier. Output from the ambient temperature classifier is received as an ambient temperature value for the particular time

AIR SUPPLY DEVICE

An air supply device comprises an enclosure, a pump and a flow path switching unit. The flow path switching unit includes a pedestal part, a rotating part having an enclosure interior space communication portion and a groove portion, and a drive unit. The enclosure includes an air supply port, an air discharge port, and at least one object connection port. The pedestal part includes at least one first hole that is communicated to the at least one object connection port, and a second hole that is communicated to the air discharge port. The enclosure interior space communication portion is communicated to the air supply port through an interior space of the enclosure. The groove portion is separated from the enclosure interior space communication portion.

AIR SUPPLY DEVICE

An air supply device comprises a pump and a flow path switching unit. The pump is configured to supply air. The flow path switching unit includes a pedestal part forming a flow path from the pump to at least one object, a rotating part rotatably provided with respect to the pedestal part to switch the flow path, and a sheet member disposed between the pedestal part and the rotating part. The sheet member has a first layer and a second layer that are stacked in a direction directing from the rotating part to the pedestal part. The first layer has a smaller elastic modulus than the second layer. The second layer has a smaller friction coefficient than the first layer.
