An apparatus for bonding and combining a pocket spring bed mesh and method, and a pocket spring bed mesh. The apparatus includes a rack, a platform arranged on the rack for driving the pocket spring bed mesh to move reciprocally, a rotating mechanism used for driving the pocket spring bed mesh to rotate, and a combining mechanism used for combining pocket spring strings to form the pocket spring bed mesh. The combining mechanism bonds and combines pocket spring strings to form an unshaped pocket spring bed mesh which is driven by the platform to move to the position of rotating mechanism to be rotated for adjusting the orientation, then the pocket spring bed mesh is moved by the platform to the combining mechanism, and the combining mechanism bonds and combines the side parts of the unshaped pocket spring bed mesh using a pocket spring string of a smaller diameter.

A simplified code for instructing garment assembly steps is disclosed. The code is integrated with a garment pattern and printed onto a textile sheet. The textile sheet is assembled into a garment using an associated method.

A chair control assembly includes a base structure having first and second pivot points spaced from one another, a seat support structure coupled to the first pivot point, a back support structure coupled to the second pivot point and adapted to move between first and second positions, wherein the base structure does not move as the back support structure moves between the first and second positions, and a control link pivotably coupled to the seat support structure for rotation about a third pivot point and pivotably coupled to the back support structure for rotation about a fourth pivot point, wherein the third pivot point is rearward of the fourth pivot point when the back support structure is in the upright position, and the third pivot point moves forward relative to the fourth pivot point as the back support structure moves from the upright to reclined positions.

There is provided a skin-material fixing clip for connecting a skin material with a cushion material and provided with a locking section and a hook. The hook is provided with an extension portion extending downward from the locking section and a claw-shaped portion extending laterally from a distal end of the extension portion. The locking section is provided with a wire guide piece. A groove portion surrounded by the claw-shaped portion and the extension portion defines a wire holding space. Parts of the wire guide piece and the claw-shaped portion facing the wire insertion opening defines guide surfaces. The distal end portion of the wire guide piece and the distal end portion of the claw-shaped portion are provided to be spaced from each other along a direction parallel to an extending direction of the groove portion.

A listing bead for use in securing upholstery trim covers to upholstery clips embedded in a foam substrate that includes finger-friendly formations on its surface. The formation in an illustrative embodiment defines a flat top at the upper end of a neck that extends between the bead and the top. Illustratively, the top is formed in two outwardly bent L-shapes extending at right angles in opposing directions from the neck. The bead, neck and flat top define confronting halves, joined at the bottom edge, which encase a web that is constructed and arranged to be secured to the trim cover by adhesives, and/or welding stitching. The web illustratively includes punched and/or cut holes (tactile indicia) at predetermined intervals therealong that provide visual and tactile feedback to the installer on the approximate location of clips in the substrate during assembly.
