Patent number: 11622636Abstract: A foam mattress in which a layer of latex or latex-like foam placed above a layer of memory foam is described. This construction of the mattress provides the contouring pressure relief that a visco-elastic foam provides with a top surface with quick recovery (a latex-like “bounce”) that prevents people from getting “stuck” in the visco-elastic foam and improves the springiness of the mattress. The mattress may also include straps and cinches to aid in transportation of the mattress. The mattress may also include removable covers that aid in keeping the mattress clean.Type: GrantFiled: December 3, 2021Date of Patent: April 11, 2023Assignee: Casper Sleep Inc.Inventors: Philip Krim, Neil Parikh, Jeff Chapin

Patent number: 11241100Abstract: A temperature-regulating mattress system provides dynamic adjustment of temperature and other parameters throughout a user's sleep cycle to maximize the quality of the user's sleep, Features of the system may include: (a) heating and cooling temperature regulation (with dynamic custom profiles that control humidity and are dual-zone); (b) smart controls (with remotes and apps that learn from users to optimize settings and work with smart home products such as Alexa and interactive lighting systems); (c) comfort (with a mattress that provide the necessary support for its users); and (d) sensors used for temperature and humidity estimation algorithms, control mechanism, and additional inferences from those sensors (pose, enrichment of biometric sensing data, etc.).Type: GrantFiled: April 22, 2019Date of Patent: February 8, 2022Assignee: Casper Sleep Inc.Inventors: Jeff Chapin, Chris Glaister, Ara Acle, Defne Civelekoglu, Caroline Cockerham, John Cohen, Russell Jelinek, Martin Kay, Colin Kelly, Carly Kim, Eric Konzelmann, Jordan Lay, Eric Lewis, Jeff Mekler, Tyler Moore, Josef Norgan, Elliot Sather, Shail Shah, Shyam Srinivasan, Ryan Young

Patent number: 11116326Abstract: An endoskeleton elastomer that variably impacts the mattress firmness head-to-toe is described. The elastomer fills voids cut into the foam using contour cutting or spherical cap-shaped cutouts. The elastomer is poured as a hot liquid into the voids, and cools to a solid elastomer. The specific incarnation involves the creation of a set of parallel inclusions at the center of the mattress or a set of spherical cap-shaped cutouts that help prop up the hip area to maintain proper spinal alignment by firming the center of the mattress. The depth, width, shape, spacing, elastomer durometer, and location (both head-to-toe and depth in the mattress) may be varied to impact firmness in any desired manner. The mattress may also include a series of horizontal-oriented cutouts that are cut into various portions of the mattress layers. These cutouts may extend along the width of the mattress and may be placed at portions of the top and portions of the bottom of the mattress.Type: GrantFiled: August 13, 2018Date of Patent: September 14, 2021Assignee: Casper Sleep Inc.Inventors: Russell Jelinek, Jesse Menayan, David Holm, Jeff Chapin
