Environmental characteristics of habitable environments (e.g., hotel or motel rooms, spas, resorts, cruise boat cabins, offices, hospitals and/or homes, apartments or residences) are controlled to eliminate, reduce or ameliorate adverse or harmful aspects and introduce, increase or enhance beneficial aspects in order to improve a “wellness” or sense of “wellbeing” provided via the environments. Control of intensity and wavelength distribution of passive and active Illumination addresses various issues, symptoms or syndromes, for instance to maintain a circadian rhythm or cycle, adjust for “jet lag” or season affective disorder, etc. Air quality and attributes are controlled. Scent(s) may be dispersed. Hypoallergenic items (e.g., bedding, linens) may be used. Water quality is controlled. Noise is reduced and sounds (e.g., masking, music, natural) may be provided. Passive and active pathogen controls are employed. Controls are provided for the occupant and/or facility personnel, as is instruction, and surveys, including assessing wellness.

Foam bedding products including viscoelastic foam having a high airflow value that do not feel hot to the person sleeping on the products. One product is a pillow having a contoured core having sufficient firmness to provide effective support for a user and a hyper soft viscoelastic foam shell surrounding the core having sufficient firmness to maintain the appearance of a conventional pillow when supporting only a pillowcase or other bed coverings. The core may be made of higher density viscoelastic foam or of a resilient foam. Another product may be a mattress topper with or without foam cores for body support carried within slabs of high airflow viscoelastic foam.

The invention discloses a processing method for a mercerized knitted bedding fabric. The processing method mainly adopts a production technology of double-calcination single yarn, first refining and then mercerizing, and grey yarn is sequentially subjected to yarn singeing, yarn steaming, knitting, grey cloth singeing, refining, dewatering, cylinder drying, mercerizing, dyeing, dewatering, scutching, drying, printing, forming and pre-shrinking and finally is checked and stored in a cabin. The mercerized knitted bedding fabric has the advantages of high conformality, low shrinkage, wide width and the like, and can meet the requirement on the knitted bedding fabric; compared with a woven fabric, the mercerized knitted bedding fabric has higher elasticity, water absorption and air permeability, is more smooth and fine in handfeel, and has better comfortableness.

The invention relates to slickened or siliconized flame resistant fiber blends that are well suited for use in mattresses, boxsprings, upholstered furniture, fiber-filled bed clothing, transportation seating or any end use application where a soft materials are desired for flame resistant (FR) purposes. Some of the fibers in the blend are slickened. The FR fibers incorporated into these blends include both char forming FR fibers and oxygen depleting FR fibers. FR char-forming fibers are those which exhibit little shrinkage when exposed to direct flame and are not spun from polymers manufactured with halogenated monomers. Oxygen depleting FR fibers are spun from polymers manufactured with halogenated monomers.

This invention pertains to a three dimensional disposable panty, subassemblies of the panty, and an apparatus and methods for making the panty and subassemblies. The panty is designed to hold a primary absorbent sanitary pad. The panty may have elasticized leg and waist openings and be stretchable about the hip and stomach regions of a user. the panty provides backup protection to control egress of fluids that leak or seep around or through the primary sanitary pad. The panty includes a secondary absorbent positioned in the crotch area and extending into the body of the disposable panty, front and back, and preferably over the leg elastics to trap, inside the panty, leakage from the primary absorbent, and to prevent strike through onto e.g. outer clothing and bed linen. The apparatus and methods facilitate assembling leg elastics and crotch elastics into the panty subassemblies while assembling a series of panty subassemblies in a continuous web structure at a constant, or relatively constant, continuous and efficient speed.

An in-bed toe tent frame designed to keep bedding off the toes of a person lying on his or her back on a standard bed. The frame includes a flat lower support frame which extends transversely across the bed between the mattress and box spring. The opposite ends of the lower support frame extend upward over the opposite sides of the mattress and selectively connect to two hub assemblies. The two hub assemblies hold an upper support frame in a transversely aligned, elevated position over the mattress. Bedding placed over the upper support frame is then elevated over the user's feet when sleeping. The hub assemblies allow the upper support frame to be adjusted to different heights to produce different tent sizes. The hubs also allow the upper support frame to be rotated toward the foot of the bed for compact storage.

A person who is elderly, requires care, or an inpatient who is under the care by his or her family members, a nursing care worker, or a nurse in a hospital or medical institution must be monitored constantly, however the caregiver cannot be in attendance on the patient all the time. A biosignal intensity measuring method is provided to solve the above problem. According to the measuring method, output signals from a noninvasive sensor, which detects biosignals from a lying subject, are amplified and noises other than the biosignals are attenuated via a signal amplifying/shaping unit, and the amplified signals are controlled by an automatic gain control (AGC) unit to have sizes within a prescribed range, then parameters acquired by signal gains in a control circuit upon carrying out automatic gain control are output as the output signal intensity of the biosignals to calculate biosignal intensity. A bedding state monitoring method is also provided. According to the monitoring method, the calculated signal intensity is used to monitor the bedding state of the subject, such as a state of being in or out of bed, of weakening or stoppage of biosignals, of body motion, or the like.
