Backfolded pocket mattress
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.
1. A pocket mattress, comprising:
coil springs arranged as spring units enclosed in a covering material forming pockets, the spring units being arranged successively in elongate strings, the mattress including a plurality of the elongate strings, interconnected and arranged side by side, the elongate strings including a plurality of transverse seams arranged parallel to a longitudinal direction of the coil springs to separate the pockets, wherein a middle portion of the transverse seams attaches at least a layer of covering material from either side of one of the spring units to each other,
and wherein at least some of the transverse seams are back folded transverse seams, in which the covering material in proximity to an end portion of said back folded transverse seams is back folded towards the middle portion of the transverse seams, said back folded transverse seams each including 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.
2. The pocket mattress of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the back folded transverse seams include a first end portion and a second end portion both attaching at least twice as many layers of covering material as in a corresponding transverse seam which is not back folded.
3. The pocket mattress of claim 1 , wherein the elongate strings are made of a covering material with a constant width.
4. The pocket mattress of claim 1 , wherein the pocket mattress further comprises a layer attached to a surface of the pocket mattress including back folded transverse seams.
5. The pocket mattress of claim 1 , wherein essentially all the transverse seams are back folded transverse seams.
6. The pocket mattress of claim 1 , wherein the back folded transverse seams are formed by welding.
7. The pocket mattress of claim 2 , wherein the elongate strings are made of a covering material with a constant width.
8. The pocket mattress of claim 2 , wherein the pocket mattress further comprises a layer attached to a surface of the pocket mattress including back folded transverse seams.
9. The pocket mattress of claim 2 , wherein essentially all the transverse seams are back folded transverse seams.
10. The pocket mattress of claim 2 , wherein the back folded transverse seams are formed by welding.
