Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for improving sleep quality, comprising the steps of measuring pressure by means of sensors in locations distributed by regions of a mattress; calculating the SQI based on the prominent movements detected depending on the time of night; calculating the mean pressure measured by each sensor; calculating the difference between the mean pressure and the pressure measured by that sensor when there is no user on the mattress; calculating the mean pressure difference for each region of the mattress; calculating a weight factor for each region of the mattress; comparing the weight factor with a reference value; varying the configuration of the mattress by increasing or reducing the support level in the regions. The present invention also relates to a related system and mattress.

Abstract: The invention relates to an air flow control device for inflatable objects (20) comprising a hermetic air chamber (10) arranged for being connected to an air pump (12); a printed circuit board (22A, 22B) that can be connected to a power source, the printed circuit board (22A, 22B) forming a surface limiting a face of the hermetic air chamber (10) and having at least one hole (26). The device also comprises at least one solenoid valve (14) connected on the printed circuit board (22A, 22B), covering the hole (26), and the solenoid valve comprising: a casing (28); an outer coil (30); a fixed inner metal cylinder (32); a nozzle (18) for connecting the inside of the solenoid valve (14) to the inflatable object (20); a rod (16) having a rubber tip and a spring.

Abstract: The invention relates to a mattress (110) made of elastic foam or rubber material and comprising individually controllable air chambers (120, 120a) that are inserted in the transverse direction and are equipped with at least one pressure measurement sensor, the pressure in the air chambers (120, 120a) being adjustable based on an algorithm which is used by a control device and which correlates with sleep quality calculations also made by the control device and/or which follows the principle of the changing pressure sensed. The invention also relates to a corresponding method.
