TEMPERATURE MANAGEMENT BEDDING SYSTEMS

Temperature management bedding systems for mattresses and quilt panels generally include a trilayer of active components including a phase change material applied to a top surface of a flexible substrate thereof, a fire retardant layer underlying the flexible substrate including hydrophilic rayon fibers treated with ammonium polyphosphate; and a vertically oriented fiber batting layer underlying the first retardant layer including an elastomeric binder. The temperature management bedding systems provide heat control and mass transfer of moisture from the bedding surface.

Inflatable airbed mattress internal support system

The disclosed technology includes an internal support structure for providing structural stability to an inflated airbed. The internal support structure may include an internal support wall connected to side panels by one or more side support beams. The internal support structure may further include corner support walls and a plurality of internal support beams to provide additional support.

Mattress protectors, mattresses covered by mattress protectors, and related methods

A mattress protector includes a composite sheet having a non-deformed length and a non-deformed width. The composite sheet includes a fabric and a water impermeable polymer. The composite sheet is capable of repeatedly stretching to a deformed length of at least 115% of the non-deformed length and returning to within 8% of the non-deformed length without rupture or permanent wrinkling of the composite sheet. Mattresses may be covered and protected by such a mattress protector. Methods of forming mattress protectors include providing a water impermeable polymer on a fabric so as to form a composite sheet having a non-deformed length and a non-deformed width, and formulating and configuring the composite sheet so as to be capable of repeatedly stretching to a deformed length of at least 115% of the non-deformed length and returning to within 8% of the non-deformed length without rupture or permanent wrinkling of the composite sheet.

A mattress system with at least two inflatable bladders located within a tub compartment of a foam encasement is enclosed. The bladders are surrounded on all sides by foam layers and the bladders are inflated and deflated by a control unit. The control unit is positioned within the tub compartment near the foot of the mattress and centered between the two bladder assemblies. The control unit is adhered to the foam encasement.

Adjustment system and method of bed

A system and a method for adjusting a bed are disclosed. The bed is preset with a plurality of sets of adjustment parameters. An external muscle strength/pressure detection device or method is used to select at least two sets of the adjustment parameters suitable for the user. The corresponding sleep parameters are detected when the user sleeps, and the user-specific adjustment parameters are quickly selected and sent back to the bed for adjustment. Through the method, there is no need for the bed to provide pressure sensors.

SEAT BACK AND CUSHION VENTILATION ASSSEMBLY

The present disclosure relates to a seat ventilation system for deployment in a seat of a vehicle. Specifically, the seat ventilation system includes a three-dimensional mesh for maintenance of airflow channels and a ductless blower system to prevent system pressure loss. The air-permeable three-dimensional scaffold prevents compression and closure of pad-based airflow channels. The blower system reduces system air pressure loss by residing adjacent to the volume of interest, eliminating the need for ductwork.

FLEXIBLE PRESSURE-SENSING PAD AND MANUFACTURING METHOD
20190290132 · 2019-09-26 ·

The present invention relates to a flexible pressure-sensing pad and manufacturing method thereof. The flexible pressure-sensing pad includes a first fabric substrate layer, a second fabric substrate layer, and a fabric barrier layer provided between the first fabric substrate layer and the second fabric substrate layer. The first fabric substrate layer includes a first electrode and the second fabric substrate layer includes a second electrode. The fabric barrier layer has multiple through holes. The first electrode and the second electrode are electrically connected with a controller. Compared with the current pressure-sensing pad, the present invention is thinner and more flexible, has superior breathability and waterproofness, does not generate an irritating noise, creates a quiet recuperative environment for patients and can sense an external force over the entire pressure sensing pad without any blind spots, thereby providing better user experience.
