Abstract: An adjustable foundation includes a base frame and an articulating frame movably supported by the base frame for longitudinal movement with respect to the base frame. A mattress platform is positioned on the articulating frame. A concealing assembly is positioned below the mattress platform and at least partially conceals the base frame. The concealing assembly is attached to the articulating frame for simultaneous longitudinal movement therewith.

Abstract: An aspect of the present invention relates to a method and system of providing a bed using a plurality of interchangeable adjustable firmness springs to provide localized comfort and support to the user of the bed. The plurality of interchangeable springs may have a plurality of different firmnesses to provide customizable local comfort to a user. The foam springs are color coded based on the firmness associated with the foam spring. The foam springs have markings and/or health devices attached to an end of the foam spring.

Abstract: A leg assembly includes a first leg member and second leg member each having side-to-side width that is greater at the top end than the bottom end and a tapered outer surface. The second leg member has top-to-bottom length different than the top-to-bottom length of the first leg member. The leg members are adapted to connect individually or in combination to a support system such that at least three leg heights are selectably provided. The side-to-side width of the top end of the second leg member is approximately equal to the side-to-side width of the bottom end of the first leg member such that when the top end of the second leg members is connected to the bottom end of the first leg member, the combined leg members have a generally continuously tapered outer surface.

Abstract: 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).

Abstract: An adjustable foundation includes a base frame and an articulating frame movably supported by the base frame for longitudinal movement with respect to the base frame. A mattress platform is positioned on the articulating frame. A concealing assembly is positioned below the mattress platform and at least partially conceals the base frame. The concealing assembly is attached to the articulating frame for simultaneous longitudinal movement therewith.

Abstract: This disclosure concerns an adjustable bed with a deck-on-deck appearance. A concealing assembly is attached to the center frame of an articulating bed, wherein the concealing assembly is situated below the mattress platform and conceals the base frame as the center frame moves along the base frame when the bed articulates. In other embodiments, such as for non-wall hugger beds where the center frame is stationary, a concealing assembly may still be used but will also be stationary.

Abstract: The disclosure generally relates to a mattress thermal management system, for example a mattress cooling and/or heating system and in particular a suction- and/or discharge-based cooling and/or heating system. Deck-mounted fans beneath a mattress operate in various embodiments to induce a uniform suction flow, a uniform discharge flow, and/or a combined suction/discharge (circulating) flow that enhances the cooling and/or heating rate of the mattress. The mattress thermal management system can be incorporated into a conventional mattress/bed system or into an adjustable bed system.

Abstract: A support system includes a support frame and at least one modular leg assembly mounted to and supporting the support frame. The leg assembly includes a first leg member and a second leg member. The second leg member has a top-to-bottom length that is greater than the top-to-bottom length of the first leg member. The first and second leg members are connected individually or in combination to the support frame such that at least three leg heights are selectably provided. The leg members may each have a threaded connecting element extending therefrom for connecting the leg member to another leg member or to the support frame. The support system may be a mattress support frame. The at least one modular leg assembly may be a plurality of modular leg assemblies.

Abstract: An adjustable foundation includes a base frame and an articulating frame movably supported by the base frame for longitudinal movement with respect to the base frame. A mattress platform is positioned on the articulating frame. A concealing assembly is positioned below the mattress platform and at least partially conceals the base frame. The concealing assembly is attached to the articulating frame for simultaneous longitudinal movement therewith.

Abstract: A method includes selecting an arrangement of foam springs, the arrangement that matches user-selected firmness requirements; attaching foam springs to a foam panel in a removable, replaceable manner; and inserting the foam springs and the foam panel into a containment facility. A mattress includes foam springs; a foam panel to which an arrangement of the foam springs is attached in a removable, replaceable manner; a containment facility within which the foam springs and the foam panel are disposed; and a side rail with indentations within which sides of at least some of the foam springs are disposed. The mattress may also include a fabric webbing, attached to the containment facility, within which some of the foam springs are disposed in a removable, replaceable manner; and an attachment device attaching together at least two of the foam springs.
