RECONFIGURABLE PILLOWCASE
A reconfigurable pillowcase 10 has two congruent panels 12 of non-absorbent fabric connected at two lateral sides 14 and a closed distal end 16. Three handles 30 extend in a proximal direction from the proximal open end 18 of each panel 12. Fastening strips 22 inside the pillowcase's proximal open end 18 seal off the interior of the pillowcase. The handles 30 form one pair of medial handles 50 and two pairs of lateral handles 52 which may be folded over each other and held with a single hand. The folding of the pillowcase to align the handles creates creases in the pillowcase that improves the control a person has over the direction and motion of the pillowcase during a pillow fight.
Full body side sleep pillow and methods
A pillow system includes a body pillow, a torso pillow, and a slipcover that is positionable over the body pillow and torso pillow. The slipcover includes an upper portion, a lower portion, a central portion positioned between the upper portion and the lower portion, a pocket, and an elongate material band that operably connects the pocket with the central portion of the slipcover. The slipcover is designed to enclose the body pillow and the pocket is designed to enclose the torso pillow. The pocket is extendable from the slipcover to position the torso pillow distally of the body pillow and thereby enable a user to lay atop the material band with the torso pillow and body pillow positioned on opposite sides of the user's body.
Pillow system
A pillow system includes a pillow assembly and a pillow and pillow cover assembly, the pillow assembly having a base attached to a pillow having an opening, the pillow formed of a first foam material, and the base formed of a second foam material, and wherein the first foam material is more rigid than the second foam material. The pillow and pillow cover assembly includes a pillow cover formed of a stretchy fabric material capable of stretching into the opening of the pillow during use.
Hybrid Pillow
A hybrid pillow includes a first lateral portion, a medial portion, and a second lateral portion. The first lateral portion includes a first thickness. The medial portion is disposed adjacent to the first lateral section, the medial portion including a second thickness. The second lateral portion is disposed adjacent to the medial portion, and the medial portion is disposed between the first lateral portion and the second lateral portion. The second lateral portion includes a third thickness. The hybrid pillow includes one or more slots on a top of the hybrid pillow in the first lateral portion, the one or more slots extending only partially through the first thickness.
Designer Home Décor Messaging System and Method of Manufacture
The present invention relates to a designer home décor messaging system including a pair of designer soft textile articles for decoration and providing a way of communication between two users. A first article of the set has a printed customized question phrase, and a second article has at least one and potentially two response phrases corresponding to the question phrase. The first article can be displayed to ask the question and a panel of the second article can be displayed to respond to the question. The second article can be flipped to respond to the question with a different response. The phrases can be in any language, font, style and design. The system can also be in the form of covers for the articles having customized phrases.
REDUCED ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT TEXTILE PRODUCTS HAVING PEELABLE LAYERS
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.
INFECTION CONTROL FILTER LABEL
An infection control filter label includes a frame and a filter membrane that covers a window through the frame. The frame may be removably secured to a cover for an item, such as a cushion (e.g., a pillow, a positioner, a mattress topper, a mattress, a seat cushion, etc.), bedding (e.g., a duvet, etc.), or the like to provide a sealed cover for the item. The sealed cover may be impermeable, with the infection control filter label limiting the passage of dust and microorganisms (e.g., fungi, bacteria, mold spores, etc.) from passing therethrough. Thus, the sealed cover may protect its contents from external factors (e.g., sick individuals, etc.) while protecting the environment outside the sealed cover from the contents of the sealed cover. Information about the item may be provided on the frame; for example, by printing, writing, or the like.
SECONDARY CUSHIONING ELEMENTS FOR CUSHIONS
A cover for a cushion includes a first panel, a second panel, and a primary receptacle defined between the first panel and the second panel. The primary receptacle may receive a primary cushioning element, such as a pillow, a pillow insert, or a fill material. At least one of the first panel and the second panel includes a secondary cushioning element. The secondary cushioning element may be defined from a compressible, resilient elastomeric material that defines a plurality of thin interconnected walls that in turn define an array of open cells or columns. Each cell or column may have a hexagonal shape, imparting the array of open cells or columns with a honeycomb appearance. Methods for assembling a primary cushioning element with such a cover are also disclosed.
Pillow with baffles and related methods
A pillow may include a pillowcase having a first end, a second end opposing the first end, and first and second opposing sides extending between the first end and the second end. The pillowcase also may include first and second end chambers respectively adjacent the first and second ends, a medial chamber between the first and second end chambers, and baffles extending between the first and second opposing sides and defining the first and second end chambers and the medial chamber. The pillow also may include a pillow insert within one of the first and second end chambers, and the medial chamber.
REVERSIBLE PILLOW
A reversible pillow includes first and second panels each having first and second surfaces. The panels each have a plurality of edges. The first and second are panels joined along an edge to define an axis of rotation of the panels relative to one another. A releasable fastener extends along the non-joined edges. The releasable fastener is for fastening the first and second panels to one another. The panels are rotatable about the axis in a first direction such that the first and second panel first surfaces are on an outside of the pillow, and are rotatable about the axis in a second opposite direction such that the first and second panel second surfaces are on the outside of the pillow. The first and second panel first and second surfaces can be fabricated from different materials.
