Organic fibers and inorganic fibers, used as materials, are mixed, thereby forming a web 18. Inter-fiber bonding is then performed on the web, forming a non-woven fabric web. The non-woven fabric web is cut, providing a web piece 18a shaped like a seat pad 30. The web piece is set in a metal mold and then compressed in the metal mold. Next, the metal mold is heated, thereby heating the organic fibers of the web piece, at surface, thereby welding the organic fibers together and molding a seat pad. The seat pad is covered with a trim cover, producing a cushion. The organic fibers are used in mixing ratio of 50% by weight or more, and the inorganic fibers are used in mixing ratio of 50% by weight or less. The organic fibers are made of simple high-molecular substance such as polyethylene fibers.

An osmosis membrane is disposed at the boundary between a three-dimensional network structure section and a foam section. The osmosis membrane allows a liquid foam material to permeate. The three-dimensional network structure section is impregnated with the foam material through the osmosis membrane, and subsequently the foam material is solidified, thereby connecting the three-dimensional network structure section and the foam section to each other. The bonded body of the three-dimensional network structure section and the foam section is completed only by disposing the cushion structure component in between the upper mold and the lower mold, and performing a foaming step.

A mattress containing a core section, a high loft non-woven layer at least partially covering a first side of the core section and containing a plurality of heat and flame resistant fibers, bulking fibers, and binder fibers, a ticking layer at least partially covering the high loft non-woven layer and containing a textile layer, a pattern coated layer. The pattern coated layer may be printed on the high loft non-woven layer, the ticking layer, or any layer between the high loft non-woven layer and the ticking layer. The pattern coated layer contains a blend of microencapsulated phase change material (PCM) and a binder, wherein the PCM is fully encapsulated by the binder.

An upholstered comfort member, comprising a resilient comfort material and a cover fabric. The resilient comfort material comprises lignocellulosic fibres, which provides resilient properties to the resilient comfort material, and a binder at a concentration of between 1 and 30 wt %. The binder binds the lignocellulosic fibres together. The invention further relates to a method for manufacturing of such an upholstered comfort member.

This disclosure describes, among other things, techniques for waking a user by changing the user's sleep environment. In one example, a method includes receiving, at a central controller of an air mattress system, at least one user alarm setting, generating, via the central controller, at least one instruction based on the received user alarm setting, and transmitting, from the central controller, the at least one instruction to a first component of the air mattress system to adjust a feature of the first component.

A bedding system subscription service that includes providing a selection of mattress cores from which a customer can select for purchase; providing a selection of mattress covers from which the customer can select for use in combination with the selected mattress core; periodically replacing the selected mattress cover with a new mattress cover; and recycling the selected mattress cover after it has been replaced by the new mattress cover.

Body support assembly (1) having a top surface (2) and a spaced away bottom surface (3) defining a cushion volume (4) and defining side walls (5). The air permeability of the top surface (2) is higher than the air permeability of the bottom surface (3). The cushion volume (4) comprises an upper cushion zone (7) and a lower cushion zone (8) and separated by a separation sheet (9). The upper cushion zone (7) and the lower cushion zone (8) comprise of a compressible material (10) which is permeable for air in all directions. The cushion volume (4) further comprises a flow path for air comprising an air inlet (6) in the bottom surface (3), air displacement means (20), a heat exchanger (21), a flow path through the compressible material of the lower cushion zone (8), through openings in the separation sheet (9) and through the compressible material (10) of the upper cushion zone (7) and multiple air outlets as present in the top surface (2).

A method for producing a seat cushion includes a molten filament supplying step of discharging a plurality of molten filaments of a thermoplastic resin or the like downward in a thermal vertical direction from a plurality of nozzle holes, a three-dimensional filaments fused body forming step of fusion-bonding contact points between the plurality of molten filaments while three-dimensionally entangling the molten filaments to form a three-dimensional filaments fused body, and a three-dimensional filaments-linked structure forming step of cooling and solidifying the three-dimensional filaments fused body while drawing the three-dimensional filaments fused body with an underwater drawing machine provided in cooling water to thereby form a three-dimensional filaments-linked structure, the three-dimensional filaments-linked structure forming step includes a three-dimensional filaments-linked structure density controlling step of controlling a density of the three-dimensional filaments fused body by varying a drawing speed of the underwater drawing machine.
