Mattress assemblies that provide reduced heat index during use include a thermally conductive layer and a spacer layer and in direct contact with the thermally conductive layer. Optionally, the thermally conductive foam layer can be perforated. In some embodiments, the thermally conductive layer and the spacer layer can overlay an innerspring mattress core, one or more foam layers, or a hybrid of foam and innersprings. In other embodiments, the mattress assemblies include a foam layer such as a viscoelastic foam layer overlying the thermally conductive layer and the spacer layer. Also, disclosed are processes for reducing the heat index in a mattress assembly.

Composite spacer fabric
11993067 · 2024-05-28 · ·

A warp-knitted textile composite has a spacer fabric that extends in a production direction and a transverse direction and has an outer flat warp-knitted fabric layer of predetermined stretchability, an inner flat warp-knitted fabric layer of lesser stretchability in the production and transverse directions than the outer layer, and spacer threads interconnecting the warp-knitted fabric layers. A decorative cover layer is attached to the outer flat warp-knitted fabric layer and is formed with compressed areas where the spacer fabric is permanently at least partially compressed for structuring the decorative cover layer.

OUTDOOR CAMPING MAT

The present invention relates to an outdoor camping mat, which comprises: A woven mat body, woven by plastic woven strips; A protective structure, set at the surrounding edges of the woven mat body to hold the woven mat body; A functional layer, wrapped around the outside of the plastic woven strips to enable the woven mat body to store energy when being exposed to light, emit light, and/or repel mosquitoes. The present invention can achieve energy storage and emit light, effectively repel mosquitoes, has strong applicability, and can effectively avoid loosening at the edges of the woven mat body. The present invention can be widely applied in the field of woven mats.

PRESSURE REDISTRIBUTION MATTRESS
20240156278 · 2024-05-16 ·

There is described a pressure redistribution mattress comprising an inner support structure housing a pressure redistribution assembly including a plurality of air cells connected by means of a pressure redistribution system. The air cells are spaced apart from one another to form gaps between the air cells and the gaps are filled with supporting spacers formed of an open-structured, non-foam supportive material consisting of a three-dimensional elastic arrangement of polymer filaments allowing circulation of air and moisture.

Seat Skin Material and Seat Including Same
20240148155 · 2024-05-09 · ·

Provided are: a seat skin material which is composed of a solid knit fabric that achieves both seating comfort and heating comfort and that further exhibits excellent abrasion resistance; and a seat comprising said seat skin material. A seat skin material according to the present disclosure is composed of a solid knit fabric that comprises: a front-layer knitted fabric; a back-layer knitted fabric; and a connecting strand that connects the front-layer knitted fabric and the back-layer knitted fabric.

TECHNICAL KNIT ARCHTECTURES FOR COMFORT SEATING

A vehicle seat includes a first knitted fabric layer defining an outer surface and a second knitted fabric layer defining an inner surface. The inner surface is opposite the outer surface. The vehicle seat further includes a knitted spacer fabric interconnecting the first knitted fabric layer and the second knitted fabric layer. The knitted spacer fabric resiliently biases the first knitted fabric layer and the second knitted fabric layer away from one another. The knitted spacer fabric is configured to buckle when a seated occupant exerts an occupant load on the vehicle seat. The first knitted fabric layer is more elastic than the second knitted fabric layer to conform to the seated occupant when the seated occupant exerts the occupant load on the vehicle seat.

Lumbar support structure and seat structure

A back cushioning member having a tensile structure to reduce discomfort of a seated person. A lower lumbar support 10 installed in a lower portion of a back frame 111 and an upper lumbar support 20 installed in an upper portion of the lower lumbar support 10 are provided. Having vertically two lumbar supports 10, 20 enables a first support plate 12 of the lower lumbar support 10 to be provided so as to correspond mainly to a pelvis part where the sense of contact is hardly perceived, whereby the back cushioning member 112 having a tensile structure can be provided with a predetermined restoring force at a predetermined applicable elastic strength. Since the pelvis part located at a lower portion of a human body can be supported reliably, prevention of collapse of posture can be facilitated. Since the upper lumbar support 20 corresponds mainly to a lumbar part, by setting the upper lumbar support 20 to provide a softer springiness than the lower lumbar support 10, the sense of contact in the lumbar part is suppressed and the feeling during seating can be improved.

MATTRESS CORE MATERIAL AND BED MATTRESS
20190125092 · 2019-05-02 · ·

A mattress core material includes a plurality of flat cushion bodies stacked in a thickness direction thereof, including at least a first cushion body which becomes an upper part; and a second cushion body which becomes a lower part, the first and second cushion bodies including a three-dimensional filaments-linked structure, each including a high-density upper surface layer having high filament density; a high-density lower surface layer having high filament density; and a low-density elastic layer, a high-density intermediate layer being formed in an intermediate position in the thickness direction of the mattress core material in which the first and second cushion bodies are stacked as upper and lower parts in the thickness direction, respectively, the high-density intermediate layer having a function of distributing a vertically applied compressive stress, along a curvature of an interface between the first and second cushion bodies in the high-density intermediate layer.

MATTRESSES INCLUDING SPACER FABRIC AND RELATED METHODS
20190029438 · 2019-01-31 ·

A mattress assembly includes a base core layer and an inner core located over the base core layer. The inner core includes coil springs. The mattress assembly also includes a side panel assembly located around a perimeter of the inner core. The side panel assembly includes a spacer fabric located over and transverse to the base core layer. The spacer fabric includes a first knit layer, a second knit layer, and an inner fibrous material located therebetween. Methods of forming the mattress assembly are disclosed.
