Vertically lapped nonwoven material is used without cross lapped nonwoven to provide enhanced breathability and comfort in mattresses by replacing foam material in one or more of, including all of top panel quilts, layers underneath the top panel quilts, and in side blocks which surround spring supports. The vertically lapped nonwoven may provide advantages in terms of cost, manufacturing ease, robustness in mattress design, while at the same time providing the user with a much more comfortable sleeping experience.

A pocket spring mattress arrangement, such as a bed arrangement, having adjustable firmness is disclosed. The mattress arrangement includes a pocket spring mattress having a plurality of pocketed units of coil springs individually arranged in pockets formed of a casing material. The mattress has at least two parts of which at least one is a compactable part. Further, at least one elongate actuation member extends perpendicular to a compacting direction for the compactable part(s), corresponding to a width or length direction of the mattress, and is embedded within the mattress between two of the parts. The actuation member is moveable in the compacting direction to expand or contract at least one of the one or more compactable part(s) of the mattress. Elastic elements may further be provided to contract one or more of the compactable parts.

A mattress assembly includes a base core layer and an inner core located over the base core layer. The inner core includes coil springs. The mattress assembly also includes a side panel assembly located around a perimeter of the inner core. The side panel assembly includes a spacer fabric located over and transverse to the base core layer. The spacer fabric includes a first knit layer, a second knit layer, and an inner fibrous material located therebetween. Methods of forming the mattress assembly are disclosed.

A T-link hinge for hingeably connecting first and second members comprises a link portion having a T-shaped cross-section including a top region and a bottom region, wherein the top region has a width greater than a width of the bottom region. The link portion comprises first and second thru holes formed in the bottom region of the link portion adjacent each the respective first and second ends of the link portion. Each of the first and second members to which the link portion is to be mounted includes thru holes. In an assembled configuration of the link portion and the first and second members, the thru holes formed on the first and second members axially align with the pair of thru holes in the link portion and are connected by first and second pins.

A mattress with customizable top layer includes a first cover, a core, at least one comfort layer, at least one second cover, a plurality of fastening mechanisms, and a casing. The plurality of fastening mechanisms includes a plurality of first interlocking fasteners and a plurality of second interlocking fasteners. The core is removably enclosed within the first cover. The plurality of first interlocking fasteners is perimetrically connected around a top surface of the first cover. The at least one comfort layer is removably enclosed within the at least one second cover. The plurality of second interlocking fasteners is perimetrically connected around a bottom surface of the at least one second cover. The first cover is attached to the at least one second cover through the plurality of first and second interlocking fasteners. The first cover and the at least one second cover are removably enclosed within the casing.
