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 or rectangular weld seams. Regardless of the shape of the weld seams, the different firmness of the different sections of the comfort layer may be due to different mini coil springs contained in the pockets. All pockets may have the same spring, the springs may be contained in different size weld seams to create pockets of different heights.

A pocketed spring comfort layer for a bedding or seating product has pockets characterized by the individual mini coil springs of the comfort layer being pocketed with between at least one cushion assembly and a sheet of polypropylene fabric. Each cushion assembly includes at least one foam layer. A segmented seam joins the cushion assembly and the sheet of polypropylene fabric around each of the mini coil springs of the pocketed spring comfort layer. The method of making the pocketed spring comfort layer includes compressing the mini coil springs and creating pockets with a welding horn and an anvil.

A furniture spring system, configured to provide a seating surface. The furniture spring system comprising a lid comprising a frame. The frame comprising two opposing frame members and a retention member associated with at least one of the two opposing frame members, a slat extending between the two opposing frame members, the slat comprising an elongate body having a first end and a second end and a catch disposed at the first end or second end, wherein the catch engages the retention member to retain the slat to the frame and the catch is configured to slide back-and-forth relative to the retention member as a portion of the elongate body between the first end and the second end elastically flexes downward and upward in response to forces intermittently pushing downward on the slat during use.

A modular furniture assembly includes a transverse member and a base member. The base member includes a base frame having a bottom panel and side panels, each of the side panels having an upper chamfered edge. The base member also includes a storage cavity at least partially defined by the bottom panel and the side panels and a lid configured to be selectively mounted on the base frame such that the lid covers the storage cavity.

A method for manufacturing a furniture frame using molding techniques. A structural base is molded to create the base structure for modular furniture. Cushioning material is secured on the base structure of the modular furniture and layer(s) of upholstery material are applied over the cushioning material secured on the base structure.

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.

A pocketed spring assembly comprises a plurality of parallel strings of individually pocketed springs. Each string is joined to at least one adjacent string. Each string has first and second opposed plies of fabric and a plurality of pockets formed along a length of the string by transverse seams joining the plies. At least one spring is positioned in each of the pockets. The double-layered fabric used to make at least some strings comprises two layers of non-woven spunbonded polypropylene fabric to reduce noise. The layers may be ultrasonically welded or point bonded together.
