  • Patent number: 5228157
    Abstract: A mattress construction includes a water mattress and a resilient peripheral cushion extending about the water mattress. A flexible cover is positioned on the resilient cushion, with the resilient cushion including a peripheral inner rail and a peripheral outer rail, the interior surface of the inner rail providing peripheral support for the water mattress. The inner and outer rails are interengaged whereby the inner rail resists upward movement of the outer rail.

  • Patent number: 5075913
    Abstract: A water mattress has an outer shell and a wave dampening fiber baffle positioned within the shell. The baffle includes an upper comfort layer formed of a porous mass of bound-together fibers and a lower support layer formed of a porous mass of bound-together fibers. The fiber layers are separated by a wave barrier which is generally coextensive with both the upper and lower layers. The denier characteristic of the fibers in the upper comfort layer is no greater than half the denier characteristic of the fibers in the lower support layer.

  • Patent number: 5005237
    Abstract: A water mattress construction includes an outer water inflatable polyvinyl chloride ("PVC") shell having a top and a bottom surface with side walls connecting the top and bottom surfaces and forming corners where any two side walls meet. The mattress is improved by attaching one or more patches of webbing made of a laminated spun bound polyester encased in PVC to the mattress shell. The webbing having intermittent raised areas and intermittent openings is preferably attached to the four corners of the mattress to provide a frictional gripping adhesion between the bed clothing and the mattress to prevent sliding movement of the bed clothing on the mattress.

  • Patent number: 4975995
    Abstract: A waterbed mattress has a baffle structure formed of a buoyant pad capable of floating freely within the mattress and a plurality of chambers attached to the pad. An upper portion of the chambers depend from the pad and are attached to the undersurface thereof. A lower portion of the chambers are attached to and depend from the upper chambers. There are openings conecting the upper and lower chambers for the passage of water therebetween when the weight of a person is placed upon the mattress. The pad and chambers have sufficient buoyancy that the baffle structure floats within the waterbed mattress.
