Mattresses and improved fabric covers for providing mattresses that have smooth surfaces. Additionally, methods for manufacturing non-quilted mattress covers and for manufacturing mattresses employing non-quilted mattress covers. The systems and methods described herein include mattress panels that can be manufactured separate from the inner core construction, and laid over the inner core to be fastened in place as a sleeping surface for the mattress. Optionally, these mattress panels can include a layer of fire retardant material, that may be added as a layer of material or that may be incorporated into one or more of the layers, such as a filler layer, in the mattress panel.

A mattress assembly includes a chassis having top and bottom walls and first and second sidewalls that each extend from the top wall to the bottom wall. Inner surfaces of the walls and the sidewalls define an interior cavity. The top and bottom walls each include a first section that is connected to the first sidewall and a second section that is connected to the second sidewall such that the first sections are pivotable relative to the first sidewall and the second sections are pivotable relative to the second sidewall. The first section of the top wall is pivotable relative to the second section of the top wall and the first section of the bottom wall is pivotable relative to the second section of the bottom wall. A spring assembly is configured to be positioned within the interior cavity.

An electric mattress (1) includes a mattress frame (10) including a backrest section (101), a seat section (102), a thigh section (103) supporting a user's thighs, and a shank section (104) supporting a user's shanks, and a mattress cover (11) enclosing the mattress frame (10). The backrest section (101) and the seat section (102), the seat section (102) and the thigh section (103), and the thigh section (103) and the shank section (104) are rotatably connected, and angles between the backrest section (101) and the seat section (102), and between the seat section (102) and the thigh section (103) are able to be adjusted to predetermined angles.

A mattress including: a support surface to support a user; a mattress main body that constitutes the support surface; at least one pressure sensor having a flexible sheet shape to detect a pressure acting on the support surface; a support surface cover positioned with respect to the mattress main body and arranged so as to cover the support surface; and at least one positioning member provided to the support surface cover to permit a movement of the pressure sensor with respect to the support surface cover in a planar direction while limiting an amount of the movement of the pressure sensor with respect to the support surface cover in the planar direction such that the pressure sensor is positioned on the support surface by the positioning member.

An adjustable mattress includes a cover; a main body including a first cushioning layer, a second cushioning layer, and a third cushioning layer; the first cushioning layer being attached to the second cushioning layer and the third cushioning layer being attached to the second cushioning layer, each of the first, second and third cushioning layers extending approximately the length and width of the main body; and wherein the top surface of the first cushioning layer forms the first surface of the main body and the bottom surface of the third cushioning layer forms the second surface of the main body; a topper that is selectively coupled with the first surface of the main body or the second surface of the main body, the topper extending approximately the length and width of the main body; and wherein the cover is sized and configured to receive the main body and topper.

Mattress toppers for mattress assemblies generally includes a convoluted foam layer including a convoluted upper surface and a bottom planar surface. The convoluted upper surface includes multiple raised rectangular-shaped foam sections and a plurality of raised spaced apart hemispherical-shaped foam spheres within each of the raised rectangular shaped foam sections; and at least one overlying foam layer including a bottom planar surface in contact with an uppermost surface of the multiple raised rectangular-shaped foam sections.

The present application relates to securing a mattress within an aircraft including a pliable enclosure configured for enclosing a cushion including a fastener system for providing access to an interior of the pliable enclosure when the fastener system is in an open state and for restraining the mattress when the fastener system is in a closed state and wherein the pliable enclosure has a top surface and a bottom surface and a strapping system affixed to the bottom surface wherein the strapping system includes a strap extension affixed to the strapping system wherein the strap extension is configured to be received by a retention clip secured to a bed support platform.

Disclosed is a mattress for providing comfort and support for an individual, and in particular, to a mattress structured to have independent sections that are configured to support an individual in a manner that supports the individual's body to improve comfort and avoid spinal misalignment issues from developing. In one aspect of the invention there is provided a mattress for supporting an individual thereon, the mattress comprising: at least two sections configured to support different regions of a body of the individual, at least one of the at least two sections having a different firmness to the other sections; wherein the at least two sections are independently configured such that they are isolated from each other both internally and externally.

A mattress cover can have a compartment formed thereon wherein bumper padding material can be integrated into the compartment to create a cuddle zone above the covering within an area defined by the compartment and integrated bumper padding material. The mattress cover can be provided in the form of a fitted bed sheet. The bumper padding material can be provided in the form of a tube. The compartment can be formed as an overlay material sewn over the mattress covering having at least one open end that can be closed once bumper padding material is inserted into the compartment. End closures can be provided in the form of hook and loop material sewn along at least one of the at least one open end of the overlay material and the mattress covering. The compartment and bumper padding material can be provided to create many shapes formed above the mattress material.

A polymeric material mixture comprising a fluorine-containing polymer, a siloxane polymer, and at least two polymer processing additives (PPA), wherein the at least two polymer processing additives have different chemistries. For example, there can be a flexible coextruded pipe for providing a protective housing for cables, fluids, sludge or solids, the pipe comprising a pair of telescopically related inner and outer layers, where said inner layer is lubricated with the polymeric material mixture.
