Abstract
A mattress assembly includes a chassis having top and bottom walls and first and second sidewalls that each extend from the top wall to the bottom wall. Inner surfaces of the walls and the sidewalls define an interior cavity. The top and bottom walls each include a first section that is connected to the first sidewall and a second section that is connected to the second sidewall such that the first sections are pivotable relative to the first sidewall and the second sections are pivotable relative to the second sidewall. The first section of the top wall is pivotable relative to the second section of the top wall and the first section of the bottom wall is pivotable relative to the second section of the bottom wall. A spring assembly is configured to be positioned within the interior cavity.
Claims16
A bedding system comprising:
- a chassis comprising a base layer, opposite first and second walls extending upwardly from the base layer and opposite third and fourth walls extending upwardly from the base layer, the first, second, third and fourth walls each being permanently joined with the base layer, the first, second, third and fourth walls and the base layer defining a cavity, the third and fourth walls each being movable relative to the first and second walls;
- a cover covering outer surfaces of the first, second, third and fourth walls;
- a spring pack positioned in the cavity, the spring pack comprising a plurality of springs;
- a barrier layer positioned over the spring pack, the barrier layer being attached to the cover;
- a topper positioned over the barrier layer, the topper being attached to the cover;
- and
- an outer layer positioned over the topper, the outer layer being attached to the cover.

A bedding system comprising:
- a chassis comprising a base layer, opposite first and second walls extending from the base layer and opposite third and fourth walls each extending from the base layer and from the first wall to the second wall, the first, second, third and fourth walls each being permanently joined with the base layer, the first, second, third and fourth walls defining a cavity, the third and fourth walls each including a first section connected to the first wall and a second section connected to the second wall such that the second section is movable relative to the first section, the first section of the third wall being movable relative to the second section of the third wall, the first section of the fourth wall being movable relative to the second section of the fourth wall;
- a cover covering outer surfaces of the first, second, third and fourth walls;
- a spring pack positioned in the cavity, the spring pack comprising a proximal wall that directly engages the third wall and an opposite distal wall that directly engages the fourth wall, the spring pack defining a pocket that extends continuously from the proximal wall to the distal wall, the spring pack comprising a plurality of springs disposed in the pocket;
- a barrier layer positioned over the spring pack;
- a topper positioned over the barrier layer;
- and
- an outer layer positioned over the topper.
