A multifunctional nursing bed for excretion includes a bed frame, a board, two elevation devices, an excretion device, a washing device, an anti-splash device, a cover device, and a control device electrically connected to the mentioned devices for operation. When a user has a need for excretion, the control device turns on the elevation devices to elevate the board and the cover device is elevated and opened. Then descending the board and pressing the cover device for descending as well, for the anti-splash device to be elevated and ready for use, whereby the user is able to perform excretion directly on the nursing bed without any help from others.

According to certain arrangements, a conditioner mat for use with a bed assembly includes an upper layer comprising a plurality of openings, a lower layer being substantially fluid impermeable, at least one interior chamber defined by the upper layer and the lower layer and a spacer material positioned within the interior chamber. In one embodiment, the spacer material is configured to maintain a shape of the interior chamber and to help with the passage of fluids within a portion of interior chamber. The conditioner mat can be configured to releasably secure to a top of a bed assembly.

A cushion for inserting in the legwell between individual seats in rows of seats, for example in a vehicle, is disclosed. The top of the cushion can act as a surface for a user to lie down. The cushion can be inflatable and can be deflated for easy transport. The cushion can have multiple reservoirs so the internal pressure can be separately adjusted for the base and for the mattress of the cushion, similar to a box spring and a mattress in a common bed.

An air-supply device (1) for supplying breathing air into a breathing-air region (2) has at least one inflow opening (4, 6) for supplying breathing air, and also has an interior (10) and at least one outflow region (11), via which breathing air flows out into the breathing-air region (2). The inflow opening (4, 6) is connected to the outflow region (11) via the interior (10). The outflow region (11) is connected to the outflow region (11) via the interior (10). The outflow region (11) is formed on a flexible, air-permeable material (12). In order to provide for flexible use of the air-supply device (1) and to avoid any significant adverse effect to a user, provision is made for the air-supply device (1) to have a sheet-like, flexible portion (16), which has a first flat side (7) and a second flat side (8), located opposite the first. The outflow region (11) is arranged on the first flat side (7). The interior (10) is formed between the first flat side (7) and the second flat side (8). In the interior (10), at least the outflow region (11) has arranged on it at least one spacer, which prevents the outflow region (11) from butting against the second flat side (8).

The disclosure generally relates to a mattress thermal management system, for example a mattress cooling and/or heating system and in particular a suction- and/or discharge-based cooling and/or heating system. Deck-mounted fans beneath a mattress operate in various embodiments to induce a uniform suction flow, a uniform discharge flow, and/or a combined suction/discharge (circulating) flow that enhances the cooling and/or heating rate of the mattress. Mattress-mounted heating units can be included. The mattress thermal management system can be incorporated into a conventional mattress/bed system or into an adjustable bed system.

A climate controlled bedding system includes at least one coil spring layer; and an air supply fluidly coupled to the one or more fluid conduits. In some embodiments, a filter is disposed within a flow path of a fluid conduit.

A mattress includes an inflatable lumbar support spanning across a top surface of the mattress in a position corresponding to the lumbar back area of a user when in a sleeping position. The apparatus further utilizes an electrical pump to inflate the tube to a desired firmness. A means to heat the tube for additional comfort and therapeutic benefit is also provided. The means to heat the tube as well as the inflatable connection are capable of being removable to enable repositioning or portability of the tube and means to heat the tube.

An environmental control assembly has a case configured for attachment to a bottom surface of an articulation assembly. One or more inlet fans is attached to a first wall of the case. An inlet plenum receives air provided by the one or more fans and extends from the first wall to a central chamber. An outlet plenum extends from the central chamber to a second wall of the case. A first pair of outlet ports extends from the outlet plenum proximate the central chamber through side walls of the case and a second pair of outlet ports extends from the outlet plenum distal the central chamber through side walls of the case. A cylindrical flow diffuser is positioned in the outlet plenum between the side walls and controls airflow into the first pair of ports and second pair of ports, each of said outlet ports configured for attachment to one of a plurality of flexible air conduits.

An air distribution pad comprises an upper layer, a lower layer, and a spacer material located between the upper layer and the lower layer, the spacer material configured to allow air to pass therethrough. An air distributor is configured to distribute air to the spacer material, wherein the air distributor comprises a port configured to receive an air hose, wherein the port is directed laterally sideways from the air distributor. At least one joining structure is coupled to the upper layer and the lower layer, the at least one joining structure providing one or more channels formed through the spacer material in fluid communication with the air distributor. The one or more channels are configured to direct generally laterally flowing air from the port of the air distributor to a generally longitudinal direction along the at least one channel.
