Rotatable Mattress

Abstract

The mattress use of the two piece design and square configuration of mattress allows the mattress to be manually rotate and flipped between at least eight distinct mattress orientations, which reduce wear on the mattress and extends the life of the mattress. The mattress includes a square main section and a separate smaller rectangular foot section that are positioned together and orientated so that the main section supports the bulk of the user's weight while foot section typically only supports the user's feet. The main section can be rotated in 90 degree and flipped in 180 degree increments relative to foot section to provide eight distinct mattress orientations.

I claim: 
     
         1 . A mattress comprising:
 a square main section adapted for supporting the head and torso of a user and having a first planar surface and an opposed second planar surface and four opposed sides; and   a rectangular foot section adapted for supporting the feet of the user and having a first planar surface and an opposed second planar surface, a pair of opposed sides and a pair of opposed ends,   the main section and foot section configured to be selectively aligned and positioned relative to one another in one of four rotational orientations where one of the opposed sides of the main section aligns against one of the pair of opposed sides of the foot section in each rotational position.   
     
     
         2 . The mattress of  claim 1  wherein the main section is configured so that the main section can be aligned and positioned in one of two facing orientations where where one of the first planar surface and the second planar surface is facing upward and the other of the first planar surface and the second planar surface is facing upward in the other of the two facing orientations.
