The present invention provides reconfigurable bedding systems generally including one or more bedding components such as a duvet, duvet cover, comforter, quilt, pillow shams, or sheets such as a fitted sheet, at least one flat sheet, and a plurality of pillow cases. According to some example embodiments, each component of the bedding system is manufactured so that half of the component is a uniform color, a solid portion, and the other half includes a pattern, a patterned portion. The components can be arranged in a variety of layouts with either the solid portion or pattern portion of each component visible.

A convertible travel accessory in accordance with one embodiment includes a main body that in a first state assumes a hoodie form for being worn on a head of a user and in a second state assumes a storage pouch form. The travel accessory also includes a chin pillow that is coupled to and adjustable relative to the main body for placement beneath a chin of a user, wherein in the second state, the chin pillow is inserted into the storage pouch. An optional blanket can also be provided as part of the travel accessory and can be permanently attached to the chin pillow (e.g., along a bottom edge thereof) or it can be detachably coupled to the chin pillow.

The present invention relates to a therapeutic blanket (1) with weight elements. The blanket (1) comprises a first textile layer (11), a second textile layer (12), and a plurality of weight elements (2) arranged between the first textile layer (11) and the second textile layer (12). Each one of the plurality of weight elements (2) is individually fixed at a predefined position between the first textile layer (11) and the second textile layer (12), and none of the plurality of weight elements (2) are in direct contact with another weight element (2). The present invention is at least partially based on the realisation that by individually arranging weight elements (2) at predefined positions within a therapeutic blanket (1), where none of the weight elements (2) are in direct contact with each other, a blanket (1) with better breathing properties and less noise issues may be achieved.

A therapeutic blanket including first and second outer layers that are attached together, and an internal matrix of generally equal sized cells. Each cell containing a measured weighted mass, the mass being held within the respective cell. The matrix being secured to the first and second outer layers along an outer perimeter of the blanket.

A multi-functional convertible bedding article capable of transforming into a variety of configurations. The bedding article can assume one or more of a blanket, a throw, a hoodie, and a pillow configuration(s). The bedding article further includes a handle allowing convenient outdoor transportation thereof.

An insulating material and a method using that material for preventing perioperative hypothermia in hospital patients. Hospital blankets, hospital gowns and thermal wraps are made with the insulating material, which comprises in one embodiment an inner layer and an outer layer of a nonwoven material and a middle layer of a polymer laminate material. The nonwoven material is a bicomponent coextruded spunbond nonwoven polypropylene and polyethylene textile and the polymer laminate material comprises polyethylene and metallised polyethylene terephthalate. The nonwoven material is arranged with an elastic such that the insulating material can change between a first configuration wherein the elastic is stretched such that the primary material lies adjacent to it, and a second configuration wherein the elastic is relaxed such that the primary material is bowed with respect to it, forming at least one cavity for entrapping air.

A wearable blanket with a distributed weight system for providing gentle and soothing weight on an infant's body without excessive pressure with optional swaddling wings that are removably attached to the wearable blanket. The wearable blanket has an array of subpanels containing weight or pressure-inducing material that can be adjusted to provide evenly distributed weight throughout the front panel of the wearable garment or create a weight gradient to provide more focused weighted support to particular areas of the wearable blanket depending on the physical or medical need of the wearer. The subpanels are compartmentalized and separated from one another to prevent undesirable movement or accumulation of weighed material and may include individual pouches or containers to hold the weight or pressure-inducing material that allows for customization and adjustment of any of a number of the subpanels that constitute the distributed weight system.

A couch blanket includes a rear edge having first and second corners, wherein a first connector strap assembly extends from the first and a second connector strap assembly extends from the second corner. A left edge extends from the rear edge proximate to the first connector strap assembly and has a left length. A right edge extending from the rear edge proximate to the second connector strap assembly and has a right length. A front edge connects the left edge and the right edge, distal from the rear edge. A first plurality of connectors extends along each of the left edge. The first plurality of connectors has a first left connector portion and a plurality of second left connector portions, such that the first left connector portion is configured to engage one of the second left connector portions such that, when the first left connector portion is engaged with one of the second left connector portions, the left length is shortened.

A weighted blanket with outer fabric layers and an inner layer comprising a continuous sheet of material may be formed from a core material comprising a polymer material and a filler material. The inner layer may include a plurality of ventilation apertures spaced that extend through the inner layer or may be a solid sheet.

A multi-zone blanket comprises multiple compartments along a length and a width; first pouches configured to be secured in a first set of the multiple compartments, the first set of the multiple compartments associated with a first zone of the multi-zone blanket, each of the first pouches having a first weight, the first pouches for causing a first weighted distribution across the first zone; and second pouches configured to be secured in a second set of the multiple compartments, the second set of the multiple compartments associated with a second zone of the multi-zone blanket, each of the second pouches having a second weight different than the first weight, the second pouches for causing a second weighted distribution across the second zone.
