MATTRESS ADJUSTMENT BASED ON USER SLEEP STATES
A bed has a mattress. A sensor system is configured to sense at least one physical phenomenon through a sleep session. A controller may include at least one processor and memory, the controller configured to receive, through the sleep session, the sensor data; select, from a plurality of optional algorithms, a selected algorithm based on at least one of the sensor data, user input, and checking a clock, where the optional algorithms include (i) a state-based algorithm and (ii) a schedule-based algorithm; update, through the sleep session, using the selected algorithm, a current sleep state of the sleeper; track the sleep session based on the update of the current sleep state of the sleeper through the sleep session; update, through the sleep session, using the tracking of the sleep session, a target environmental-parameter; and send, through the sleep session, automation instructions to an environmental controller.
MATTRESS ASSEMBLIES INCLUDING PHASE CHANGE MATERIALS
Mattress assemblies including at least one foam layer at or proximate to a sleeping surface including a plurality of channels or recesses in at least one surface, wherein at least a portion of the channels include an encapsulated bulk phase change material at least partially filling the channel or the recesses.
Comfort Layer With Liquid Pods And Method Of Making Same
A comfort layer for a bedding or seating product has liquid pods sandwiched between plies of fabric. The plies of fabric are joined with seams thereby creating pockets, at least one liquid pod being inside each pocket. Each seam joining opposed plies of fabric around each of the liquid pods of the comfort layer may be segmented or solid, depending upon the fabric and type of seam.
Pocketed Spring Assembly Including Liquid Pods
A pocketed spring assembly comprises a plurality of parallel strings of springs, each string joined to at least one adjacent string, each string comprising one piece of fabric folded into first and second opposed plies. Outer pockets are formed along each string by transverse seams joining the first and second plies. One pocketed spring and at least one liquid pod are positioned in each outer pocket. At least one cushion pad, at least one liquid pod or any combination thereof may be individually pocketed inside an outer pocket.
Pump apparatus and associated system and method
A system includes a pump having a filter. The filter includes a HEPA material configured for filtering air and the pump used to inflate an inflatable device configured to support a patient. A kit includes a pump configured for moving air to inflate an inflatable device, and a removable filter including a HEPA material couplable to the pump and configured to filter the air to inflate the inflatable device. The inflatable device configured to support a patient on a supporting surface.
Pneumatic Pocket and Application Thereof
A pneumatic pocket, manufactured by blow molding, has a top portion, a bottom portion, a pocket body connected between the top portion and the bottom portion, defining an air chamber therein, and a through hole communicating the air chamber and the outside. The pocket body has a responding portion and an assembly portion formed in the pocket body in a staggered manner. The responding portion allows the top portion to be deformed and telescoped towards the bottom portion for bearing an external force and driving the through hole to intake or discharge air in response. The assembly portion is configured to allow another pneumatic pocket to be positioned and assembled without interfering the deforming and telescoping of the responding portions thereof, so that the pneumatic pocket can be extended and expanded according to the size of a cushion body side by side, so that the pneumatic pockets can be arranged in the cushion body parallelly side-by-side.
MATTRESS WITH ATTACHABLE CORES
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.
Air mattress with tensioned cover
An air mattress assembly includes an air mattress and a cover system. The cover system is made of a fabric material. The air mattress, if fully inflated without the cover system in place, would be too large for the cover to fit over the fully inflated air mattress. With the cover system in place around the air mattress, the cover system will be under tension when the air mattress is inflated to operational pressures. In some embodiments the cover is bonded to the air mattress.
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.
Automatically inflatable patient transfer air mattress
Provided is an automatically inflatable patient transfer air mattress designed to enable immobile persons, such as patients with mobility difficulty, to be rapidly laid and transferred thereon in the event of a disaster or an accident, prevent an injury to the patient caused by a falling object dropping from a ceiling or any other place, and reduce impact in the case of movement via stairs. The automatically inflatable patient transfer air mattress includes a main mattress portion forming a plate shape having a predetermined thickness when charged and inflated with air, a protective cover portion provided on one side surface of the main mattress portion in a longitudinal direction, and configured to cover one surface of the main mattress portion when deployed, and a cushion wheel unit disposed on a bottom portion of the main mattress portion to absorb impact from below.
