Abstract: A mattress foundation includes a top frame and a bottom frame. Bracket assemblies are between the top frame and the bottom frame. The bottom frame has a first bottom segment and a second bottom segment each rotatably connected to bracket assemblies. The top frame has a first top segment and the second top segment each rotatably connected to bracket assemblies. The first bottom segment, the second bottom segment, the first top segment, and the second top segment are rotatable relative to each other and the bracket assemblies between a folded position and an unfolded position.

Abstract: The disclosure generally relates to a mattress thermal management system, for example a mattress cooling and/or heating system and in particular incorporating an airflow spacer and/or 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. Further, the mattress thermal management system including an airflow spacer can be incorporated into a cover for a conventional mattress foundation or adjustable bed foundation. In another aspect, the disclosure relates to a remote control that controls an adjustable bed and is configured with a children's safety lock feature.

Abstract: The disclosure generally relates to an adjustable bed apparatus, in particular an adjustable bed foundation. The adjustable foundation can include a rail system such as a detachable rail system, which can be configured to conceal mechanical and support substructure beneath the mattress support surface of the adjustable bed. In some embodiments, the rail system includes a mounting element and a corresponding rail or board mounted to the adjustable foundation, such as to the subframe of the adjustable foundation. The adjustable foundation can include independently adjustable lumbar and neck support structures on an adjustable back/head section of the adjustable bed foundation. In some embodiments, the lumbar and neck support structures include inflatable air bladder structures.

Abstract: The disclosure generally relates to an adjustable bed, in particular incorporating improved power management systems. In various embodiments, an adjustable bed can include a wirelessly chargeable remote control unit, one or more pulse width modulator units to provide DC power at a variety of voltages appropriate for varied peripheral electrical components of the bed, and/or a battery backup unit providing power to the bed in addition to a mains power input. The various power management systems can reduce wire clutter for peripheral electrical components, permit a wider range of peripheral electrical components to be driven by a single power supply, provide for adjustable bed operation in the absence of mains power supply, and reduce power consumption in different operation modes.

Abstract: The disclosure generally relates to an adjustable foundation or bed, in particular having a dual-tilt adjustable foundation. Upper and lower segments of the adjustable foundation subframe are rotatable relative to each other, thus allowing the upper portion of the subframe to tilt and assume an inclined, flat/horizontal, or declined position relative to the lower portion of the subframe. An articulating mattress support surface above the subframe can move independently from the tilting subframe.

Abstract: The disclosure generally relates to a method for forming foamed shoe insoles as well as related shoe and shoe component articles. A foamed polymer having an open-cell foam interior structure and a continuous outer layer or skin can be formed conveniently such as by injection molding. The foamed polymer has a shape corresponding to two opposing shoe insole portions such that it can be cut or otherwise separated into two corresponding complementary foamed shoe insoles. The resulting open-cell foam interior structure and a continuous outer layer of the foamed shoe insoles can provide enhance spring or bounce effect when the insoles are incorporated into a shoe or sole component thereof.

Abstract: The present disclosure concerns an adjustable bed facility including a system for executing a computer-based safety-action during a motor-actuated adjustable bed position adjustment, comprising an adjustable bed facility comprising a computer-based controller, an actuator, and a sensor, the computer-based controller providing control of adjustable bed position adjustments, the actuator configured to adjust a height of the adjustable bed facility upon receiving a height-adjustment command from the computer-based controller, and the sensor for determining an actuator action parameter measured value of the actuator, the computer-based controller in communicative connection with the sensor to monitor and compare the motor action parameter measured value to an actuator action parameter normal operation value range, and when the controller determines the monitored motor action parameter measured value is outside the range of the actuator action parameter normal operation value range the controller sends a safety-ac

Abstract: The disclosure generally relates to an adjustable foundation or bed, in particular having a tri-fold adjustable foundation. Three segments of the adjustable foundation, including a mattress support surface with three deck support sections and a subframe with three longitudinal support sections, are foldable/rotatable around two opposing pivot axes such that the three segments can be positioned in a folded, overlapping configuration that is convenient for shipping/transportation, having substantially smaller maximum dimensions than the adjustable foundation in a flat, non-folded configuration. The folded adjustable foundation can be conveniently unfolded and locked into a flat, non-folded configuration suitable for use to support a mattress and a person sleeping/resting thereon.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to an adjustable bed and foundation thereof, in particular incorporating springs or other support elements into the adjustable bed foundation or frame. The adjustable bed can include one or more foundation spring support sections mounted on or in a mattress support surface of the bed foundation. Spring support sections having different firmness levels in different mattress support sections can provide a varying support level to a user of the adjustable bed foundation combined with a mattress thereon. Spring support sections that are discrete from each other can permit articulation of the corresponding mattress support surface sections without creating bending, elongation, and/or compression stresses which might otherwise cause uneven support from or damage to a continuous spring support element spanning multiple mattress support surface sections.

Abstract: The disclosure generally relates to an adjustable bed foundation. The adjustable foundation includes lateral and/or longitudinal support members as part of an adjustable base frame positioned below a mattress support. The lateral and longitudinal support members, along with a fixed base frame portion of the foundation are preferably formed from a lightweight material such as wood. The lateral and longitudinal support members provide sufficient vertical support structure to accommodate a mattress and bed occupants on the adjustable platform, as well as electrical and mechanical components of the adjustable foundation below a mattress support deck.
