  • Patent number: 9314110
    Abstract: A pocket mattress includes coil springs arranged as spring units, arranged successively in elongate strings, enclosed in a covering material forming pockets. A plurality of the strings are arranged side by side, the strings including a plurality of transverse seams arranged parallel to the longitudinal direction of the coil springs to separate the pockets. A middle portion of the transverse seams attaches at least a layer of covering material from either side of the spring unit to each other. At least some of the seams are back folded seams, in which the covering material proximate to an end portion of the back folded seams is back folded towards the middle portion of the transverse seams. As such, the back folded transverse seams each have at least one end portion attaching at least twice as many layers of covering material as in a corresponding transverse seam which is not back folded.

  • Patent number: 7048263
    Abstract: A spring mattress comprising a plurality of interconnected coil springs (1) enclosed in covers (2), known as a pocket-spring mattress, is described, wherein at least two springs that are located adjacent to one another are spaced apart by an interjacent separation distance (SA), said separation distance exceeding approximately 10% of the diameter of the largest one of the spiral turns of the adjacent springs. Also described is a method of manufacturing a corresponding mattress.
