| 20080295252 | Mattress Construction with Filamentary Fasteners - At least one major surface of the core is covered with an inner layer of insulation, and at least one outer layer of material. The outer layer is secured to the inner layer by inserting flexible filament type fasteners through the hollow needle of an installation tool. If the core is made of foam, filamentary fasteners may also be used to secure the inner layer. The insulation layers are ultimately covered and secured in place by a fabric panel which conceals and secures the other components. Filamentary fasteners may also be used to secure a pillow top edge or a top panel to the mattress. | 12-04-2008 |
| 20080295251 | Mattress Having Foam Encasement and Method of Making the Same - A mattress core unit, such as an innerspring, is placed inside a foam envelope, which in turn is covered with fabric. The side and end rails of the envelope overlap the bottom panel, to provide good support for all edges of the mattress. The top panel of the envelope overlaps the side and end rails. To make a reversible mattress, an overlapping bottom foam panel is used. The method simplifies matress construction, reduces the number of required stock keeping units, and provides a comfortable, yet firm, feel at the edges of the mattress. | 12-04-2008 |
