Cover assemblies for mattresses
A cover assembly for a mattress is provided that includes a first cover and a second cover. The first cover includes a top panel, a bottom panel, and a continuous side panel collectively defining a cavity for enclosing the mattress. The second cover includes a top surface and a bottom surface, with the second cover being positioned over and dimensionally-sized to cover at least the top panel of the first cover. A fastener then connects the second cover to the first cover along the perimeter of the second cover. Methods for marking a mattress are also provided that include the step of marking an indicia indicative of a characteristic of a mattress on the top surface of the second cover of the cover assembly.
PRESSURE PAD COUPLING SYSTEM AND METHOD
A method of coupling a pressure pad system to an article that includes disposing a pad body of the pressure pad system on the article, the pressure pad system including first and second ends and first and second peripheral sides, the pressure pad system comprising: a plurality of end coupling tabs extending from one or both of the first and second ends, a plurality of peripheral coupling tabs coupled to the first and second peripheral sides, and a plurality of coupling straps. The method further includes coupling the pressure pad system to the article including wrapping at least two of the plurality of coupling straps around a portion of the article.
BEDSTEAD
A beadstead has a circumferential main outer frame, a dimensionally stable support element attached or attachable to the main outer frame, a cover surrounding the main outer frame and the support element and having outer edges, a multipart and profiled circumferential retaining strip wrapped by the edges of the cover that are folded over and project beyond the retaining strip for fixation under the retaining strip. The retaining strip extend transversely to a plane of the support and having a first leg projecting parallel to the support, spaced from the plane, and extending below the support. Clips fastened to the outer edges of the cover fit on the first leg to secure the edges to the frame in a desired position.
Adjustable bed with friction mattress mount
The disclosure generally relates to an adjustable bed, in particular incorporating a friction mattress mount. In various embodiments, an adjustable bed foundation can include friction-enhancing materials mounted on a deck support surface. The friction-enhancing materials maintain the mattress in a desired position and alignment with respect to the adjustable bed foundation, in particular when adjustable bed foundation is adjusted between various articulated positions (e.g., flat, inclined, and/or declined).
Wallbed Mattress System
Mattress systems for a wall bed are disclosed. In one embodiment, the mattress system includes a mattress having a top face, an inner layer and a bottom face, and a panel placed on the bottom surface. The panel is coupled with wires, which passes through the inner layer of the mattress so that the other end is coupled with the top surface of the mattress. Another embodiment of the mattress system includes a pillow stabilization mechanism that includes a panel placed on the bottom surface and an adjustable strap. Still another embodiment of the mattress system includes a dip prevention mechanism that includes a panel placed on the bottom surface which is sized and dimensioned to prevent the bottom face from having a dip when the mattress is placed on a slat.
MAGNETICALLY ATTACHED MATTRESS AND FOUNDATION SYSTEM
A magnetically attached mattress and foundation system comprising a foundation containing a magnetic portion and a mattress containing a magnetic portion. The magnetic portions each contain magnetizable or magnetically responsive materials.
ATTACHMENT SYSTEM FOR PATIENT SUPPORT APPARATUS
A support apparatus includes an upper frame having an upper support surface and first and second side surfaces. A surface assembly includes an outer ticking, first straps extending from the outer ticking proximate to a head end, second straps extending from the outer ticking proximate to a foot end, and a strap connector coupled to a distal end of each of the first and second straps. Mating connectors are coupled to at least one of the upper frame and the outer ticking. The first and second straps extend along the first and second side surfaces to engage with the mating connectors to couple the surface assembly to the upper frame. An engagement between the strap connectors and the mating connectors is maintained while permitting a sliding engagement between the upper support surface and the outer ticking as the upper frame articulates between multiple positions.
NO-SLIP PILLOWCASE AND METHODS OF USE
A pillowcase system for securing a pillow in its location on an articulating bed. The pillowcase system includes a loop with at least one open end configured to receive a pillow and an extension member that extends from the loop. The extension member is configured to be placed between a bed frame and a mattress of an articulating bed. As a head section of the articulating bed inclines, the pillow is maintained in its location and the pillow does not slip down due to gravity. Alternatively, the pillowcase system comprises multiple components that can be assembled together to form the pillowcase system.
BED WITH STRAPS AND CONNECTORS
Bed systems include a mattress that is configured to be attached to a foundation. The bed systems include a strap and a connector configured to hold the strap and connect the mattress and the foundation to each other.
Systems and methods for bedding securement
The present disclosure provides one or more embodiments involving a novel bedding system that, for example, promotes control of a blanket, a sheet, and/or a pillowcase. The present disclosure improves and maintains bedding placement when one is in a bed, such that a blanket does not become congested or misaligned in relation to a top sheet or in relation to the bed itself. One or more embodiments of the bedding system include buttons located on the sheet and/or pillowcase that feed through holes on the blanket and the opposite side of the pillowcase, thereby securing the sheet to the blanket and allowing the pillowcase to reliably encapsulate a pillow contained within.
