There is disclosed a padded element. In one embodiment, the padded element comprises a molded foam topper portion and a molded foam substrate portion secured with respect to the molded foam topper portion. The molded foam topper portion and the molded foam substrate portion have a different indentation force deflection at 25% thickness when measured pursuant to ASTM 3574-B.sub.1. In another embodiment, the padded element comprises a molded foam topper portion and a molded foam substrate portion secured with respect to the molded foam topper portion via an interference fit.

A comfort pad having a visco-elastic body encased in a film and fabric adapted to transfer the long term energy distribution properties of the visco-elastic body to the user is provided. A bottom surface of the visco-elastic body may provide frictional resistance so that neither film nor fabric is required, yet the comfort pad may removably secure to a harder structure, providing comfort to the user at this pressure point. The present invention may include an attachment assembly for mechanically and removably attaching the comfort pad between the harder structure and the user.

Provided are a mattress structure and a production method of the same, relating to the technical field of inflatable beds. The mattress structure includes: a top layer, a sponge layer and a bottom layer that are connected successively, wherein a plurality of first grooves are provided in the sponge layer. In the mattress structure, a plurality of first grooves are provided in the sponge layer arranged between the top layer and the bottom layer, which can lighten the weight of the sponge layer and accordingly, the weight of the whole mattress structure; moreover, not only the weight can be lightened, but also the used amount of sponge can be saved, which means that it has the advantages of convenient use and energy saving etc.

A seat pad (302) includes a fitting member (51) having a fitting portion (510) and a fitted member (52) having a fitted portion (520) configured to be fitted with the fitting portion, wherein the fitting member and the fitted member are each constituted of a porous structural body (1), the porous structural body is made of a flexible resin or rubber, the porous structural body (1) includes a skeleton part (2) over almost the entirety of the porous structural body, and the skeleton part includes a plurality of bone parts (2B) and a plurality of connection parts (2J) each configured to connect ends of the plurality of bone parts.

A vehicle seat cushion material and a vehicle seat exhibiting excellent moldability and recyclability and providing favorable seating comfortability is described. A cushion material includes a small pad made of resin foam, a pad body integrally stacked on an upper side of the small pad to cover the small pad, made of resin foam, and formed larger than the small pad, and an impregnation layer formed in such a manner that the resin foam of one of the small pad or the pad body is impregnated with an expandable stock solution composition of the other one of the small pad or the pad body and formed at at least a portion of an area between the small pad and the pad body. The impregnation layer is formed on an upper surface and a side surface of the small pad, and the small pad is sterically covered with the impregnation layer.
