10405665 · 2019-09-10 · ·

A comfort layer for a bedding or seating product has slow-acting pockets characterized by the individual springs of the comfort layer being pocketed with either semi-impermeable or impermeable fabric. Each seam joining opposed plies of fabric around each of the coil springs of the comfort layer may be segmented, allowing air to flow between the segments, thereby increasing the luxury feel of the comfort layer. The method of making the comfort layer includes compressing the springs and creating pockets with a welding horn and an anvil.

Posturized Pocketed Spring Comfort Layer
20190269251 · 2019-09-05 ·

A posturized comfort layer for a bedding or seating product has different sections of different firmness due to different mini coil springs within the sections. The springs may be individually pocketed between two sheets of non-woven polypropylene fabric joined with circular seams or rectangular seams. Each circular seam joins opposed pieces of fabric around one of the mini coil springs with curved segments. Alternatively, rectangular seams join opposed pieces of fabric around each of the mini coil springs with linear segments. Regardless of the shape of the seams, the different firmness of the different sections of the comfort layer may be due to the mini-coil springs contained in the pockets.

BAG-LINED SPRING CORE WITH MONOLITHIC PERIMETER, AND REINFORCED AND STABILIZED EDGES
20190239654 · 2019-08-08 ·

A core of springs with monolithic perimeter frame and reinforced and stabilized edges, of the type used for the manufacture of seats for furniture or mattresses, which is comprised of: an arrangement of springs that can be manufactured from independent bag-lined cylindrical springs; and a layer of support material or bottom on which the arrangement of springs is arranged, the dimensions in length and width of said layer of support material being greater than those of the arrangement of springs, thereby generating a surplus of material around the arrangement of springs that supports, which is characterized in that; a monolithic perimeter frame of foamed material made in situ on the surplus material of the support layer, surrounds and reinforces the arrangement of springs, so that said perimeter frame is firmly joined as part of the chemical reaction of its foaming and adhesion process.

CHAIR CUSHION AND ITS SUPPORTING STRUCTURE
20190223601 · 2019-07-25 · ·

The present invention offers a type of chair cushion and its supporting structure, and belongs to the technical field of chair manufacture. It solves the problem of unreasonable design in prior art. The chair cushion and its supporting structure comprise a pair of side boards and a bottom board. The undersides of the pair of side boards are provided at both sides of the bottom board to form a mounting cavity in which are provided several elastic supporting components. Each elastic supporting component includes several vertical springs of identical size and shape and a first flexible cladding. All springs in each elastic supporting components are arranged in at least one row and cladded in the first flexible cladding. The advantages of the chair cushion and its supporting structure lie in that the elastic supporting components formed by the first flexible cladding that clads at least one row of springs promote the strength for supporting person's hip weight on the seat. Due to the promoted buffer capacity, the protection role is enhanced to the person sitting in the seat.
