A duvet insert includes a plurality of filler compartments for receiving filler material, a first edge including a first number of coupling mechanisms, and a second edge opposing the first edge such that the plurality of filler compartments is positioned between the first edge and the second edge. The second edge includes a second number of coupling mechanisms different than the first number. At least one of the first number of coupling mechanisms or at least one of the second number of coupling mechanisms enables the duvet insert to be coupled to another duvet insert to form a combined duvet insert.

Methods for stabilizing insulation and constructing garments from the insulation are disclosed. Methods include arranging the fibers into a plurality of bundle structures. The fibers may be synthetic fibers. The method may include receiving the bundle structures into bundle channels. The bundle channels are formed by tacks. The bundle channels enable the uniform distribution of the bundle structures prior to stitching quilting stitch lines. Multiple quilting stitch lines are stitched after the bundle structures are uniformly distributed. The quilting stitch lines are orthogonal to the longitudinal axis of the bundle structures. The quilting stitch lines provide lateral as well as longitudinal stabilization of the uniform density of the bundle structures. The distance between the quilting stitch lines may be based on the loft of the fibers and/or a required durability of the garment. The quilting stitch lines are generally horizontal, while the longitudinal axis of the bundle structures are vertical.

A modular portable bedding system that emulates the home sleeping experience as much as possible, where users can easily remove or change different components to customize the system to optimize the sleeping experience for the environment they plan on using it in, while still allowing the user to easily transport the customized bedding system. The bedding system of the present invention may include four main components: a base shell, a sleeping pad, a sheet layer and an insulation layer, and in a more specific configuration, the bedding system of the present invention may have the base shell, the sleeping pad, a fitted sheet and a standard sheet in the sheet layer, a down quilt and synthetic quilt in the insulation layer and a top layer.

An article is provided which includes a flexible body configured to cover part of a user's body, at least one humidity sensor coupled to the flexible body and configured to measure a humidity of the user's skin or an internal microclimate; at least one temperature sensor coupled to the flexible body and configured to measure a temperature of the user's skin or an internal microclimate; at least one microclimate control element coupled to the flexible body; a controller functionally coupled to the at least one humidity sensor and the at least one temperature sensor to receive measured humidity and temperature signals as an input and functionally coupled to the at least one microclimate control element, the controller being preprogrammed to maintain the internal microclimate under a discomfort threshold value; a user interface functionally coupled to the controller; a power supply; and a switch.

A sleeping bag system includes a sleeping bag body and a plurality of poles. The sleeping bag body includes one or more sleeves along perimeter edges thereof, and the plurality of poles interconnect to form a frame. The frame is positioned within the one or more sleeves of the bag body to prevent a twisting movement of the sleeping bag body during use. Each sleeve spans a majority of the respective perimeter edge and includes a tunnel that receives a pole of the frame.

Presented herein is an article of bedding, which includes a body portion and a flap portion. The body portion includes a substantially elongated member configured to cover, or be covered by, at least a first portion of each of one or more users' bodies. The flap portion includes at least one other member configured to cover, or be covered by, at least a second portion of each user's body. For example, the flap portion can extend along a top portion of the user's body when the body portion extends along a bottom portion of the user's body. The flap portion defines one or more sets of one or more flaps, which may be selectively wrapped and unwrapped around at least part of the second portion of each user's body.

The invention relates to a bedding article for a baby, comprising a soft base (10) provided with an edge roll (20) secured to the base (10) and extending over at least part of the periphery thereof, said edge roll (20) being provided with a free end (25) that can be folded over onto the stomach of the baby. The edge roll (20) contains a tubular insert (30) having a complementary shape, which is designed to be heated and to progressively emit the heat received. The article also comprises a cloth for swaddling the baby and a cover (50). The cover is designed to partially cover at least the base and particularly the free end (25).

A new or alternative swaddling garment that swaddles infants by sufficiently restraining movement of the limbs to suppress the startle reflex, yet allowing movement of hand to mouth thereby facilitating non-nutritive sucking and allowing the infant to self-soothe by sucking the hands or the fabric of the garment.
