TWO-SIDED HYBRID MATTRESS TOPPER
A reversible or hybrid mattress topper includes a first foam plate having a first density, a second foam plate having a second density different than the first density of the first foam plate, and a spring panel that is disposed between the first foam plate and the second foam plate. The spring panel includes a plurality of coil springs positioned between an upper fabric layer and a lower fabric layer, with the upper and lower fabric layers joined together. An insulating layer extends along an outside surface of each of the first foam plate and the second foam plate.
HYBRID PILLOW
A hybrid pillow includes a first coil panel and a second coil panel which are joined along peripheral edges to form an inner shell defining a gap therebetween. The first coil panel is formed of a plurality of coil springs, an upper fabric layer, and a lower fabric layer, with the upper fabric layer and the lower fabric layer joined between the plurality of coil springs and along peripheral edges of the first coil panel. The second coil panel is formed of a second plurality of coil springs, a second upper fabric layer, and a second lower fabric layer, with the second upper fabric layer and the second lower fabric layer joined between the plurality of coil springs and along peripheral edges of the second coil panel. A support material disposed in the gap of the inner shell, and one or more additional layers disposed about the inner shell.
Increasing the heat flow of flexible cellular foam through the incorporation of highly thermally-conductive solids
Methods and combinations of mattress support surfaces comprising one or more flexible polyurethane foam layers containing highly thermally-conductive solids, such as diamond or silicon carbide, and said layer combination is capable of transferring heat from a warm surface, such as a person sleeping on a bed, to a cooler region at a faster rate throughout the mattress than the thermal dissipation rate obtained from flexible polyurethane foam without highly thermally-conductive solids.

MATTRESS
A mattress 10 is disclosed. The mattress 10 comprises at least two laminated layers 12, 14. The at least two layers 12, 14 include a first layer 12 defining a support surface 16 configured to support a user, and a second layer 14. The first layer 12 is formed from a resiliently deformable, fluid-impervious material, and defines a plurality of perforations 18 arranged to communicate fluid through the layer 12. The second layer 14 is joined to the first layer 12 to cover an end of at least some of the perforations 18, and is formed from a fluid-pervious material. The second layer 14 is arranged to allow fluid to be communicated between at least some of the perforations 18 and a location external to the second layer 14.
