Sleeping system and method for adjusting the same
View Patent ↗The present invention discloses a sleeping system capable of customization so that at least six different levels of firmness may be achieved per bed. The present invention discloses three layers which may be positioned by the end user in order to achieve the desired firmness. The present invention also includes a method of selling such interchangeable modular bedding. In the method, after selling the bedding, at least one of the three layers may be exchanged in order to achieve yet another alternate firmness level.
1. A sleeping system, comprising:
a comfort layer of unitary construction with a length and a width;
a support layer of unitary construction with a length and a width positioned beneath and independent of the comfort layer;
a foundation layer with a length and a width positioned beneath and independent of the support layer;
wherein the comfort layer comprises a first firmness section and a second firmness section dividing the comfort layer into two sections along its length, each section of the comfort layer having a different firmness level;
wherein the foundation layer comprises a first firmness section and second firmness section dividing the foundation layer into two sections along its length, each section of the foundation layer having a different firmness level;
wherein the sleeping system provides six different firmness levels achieved by changing the stacking configuration of the layers, said firmness levels comprising:
a first firmness level and a second firmness level achieved by positioning the foundation layer beneath the support layer beneath the comfort layer, wherein the first firmness section of the comfort layer is positioned above the first firmness section of the foundation layer, and the second firmness section of the comfort layer is positioned above the second firmness section of the foundation layer, wherein the comfort layer forms the topmost layer;
a third firmness level and a fourth firmness level achieved by positioning the foundation layer beneath the support layer beneath the comfort layer, wherein the first firmness section of the comfort layer is positioned above the second firmness section of the foundation layer, and the second firmness section of the comfort layer is positioned above the first firmness section of the foundation layer, wherein the comfort layer forms the topmost layer;
a fifth firmness level and a sixth firmness level achieved by positioning the foundation layer beneath the support layer.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the comfort layer has a first side and a second side, the first side of the comfort layer having a sleeping surface and the second side of the comfort layer having a sleeping surface.
3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the foundation layer has a plurality of firmness sections.
4. A bedding system, comprising:
a support layer of uniform firmness, the support layer having a sleeping surface;
a foundation layer of unitary construction positioned beneath and in contact with the support layer;
wherein the foundation layer has a first firmness section and second firmness section attached to each other contiguously, so that the bedding system has a plurality of firmness levels.
5. The system of claim 4 , wherein the first firmness section of the foundation layer is more firm that the second firmness section of the foundation layer.
6. The system of claim 5 , wherein a portion of the system having the first firmness section of the foundation layer has a first of the plurality of firmness levels.
7. The system of claim 6 , wherein a portion of the system having the second firmness section of the foundation layer, has a second of the plurality of firmness levels.
8. The system of claim 7 , further comprising a comfort layer positioned on top of the support layer, the comfort layer having a first side and a second side, wherein the comfort layer is customizable to a desired firmness.
9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the first side of the comfort layer is a sleeping surface and the second side of the comfort layer is a sleeping surface.
10. The system of claim 9 , wherein the comfort layer is rotatable.
11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the comfort layer is able to be flipped.
12. The system of claim 9 , wherein the comfort layer has a first firmness section and a second firmness section.
13. The system of claim 12 , wherein the first firmness section of the comfort layer is more firm than the second firmness section of the comfort layer.
14. The system of claim 13 , wherein the portion of the system having orientation of the first firmness section of the comfort layer above the first firmness section of the foundation layer has a third of the plurality of firmness levels.
15. The system of claim 13 , wherein the portion of the system having orientation of the second firmness section of the comfort layer above the first firmness section of the foundation layer has a fourth of the plurality of firmness levels.
16. The system of claim 13 , wherein the portion of the system having orientation of the first firmness section of the comfort layer above the second firmness section of the foundation layer has a fifth of the plurality of firmness levels.
17. The system of claim 13 , wherein the portion of the system having orientation of the second firmness section of the comfort layer above the second firmness section of the foundation layer has a sixth of the plurality of firmness levels.
