Modular Multi-Component Mattress

Abstract

A modular multi-component mattress system includes a base layer with a coupling channel, a first reversible support pad assembly with a first side rail and a second side rail, a comfort pad layer, and a cover assembly configured to contain the base layer, the first reversible support pad assembly, and the comfort pad layer. In a first configuration, the first side rail detachably and selectively couples within the coupling channel and the second side rail receives the comfort pad layer. In a second configuration, the first side rail receives the comfort pad layer and the second side rail detachably and selectively couples within the coupling channel. The system includes a second reversible support pad assembly. The system includes a topper layer with a cool comfort side and a warm comfort side. The topper layer detachably and selectively couples with the cover assembly.

1 . A mattress core comprising:
 a base layer comprising;   a support pad assembly detachably and selectively coupled to the base layer, wherein the support pad assembly comprises a first side rail disposed substantially along a first outer edge of the support pad assembly and a second side rail disposed substantially along a second outer edge of the support pad assembly opposite the first outer edge of the support pad assembly, wherein the support pad assembly is reversible; and   a comfort pad layer detachably and selectively coupled to the support pad assembly.   
     
     
         2 . The mattress core of  claim 1 , wherein the support pad assembly is a first support pad assembly, further comprising a second support pad assembly, the second support pad assembly comprising a third side rail disposed substantially along a first outer edge of the second support pad assembly and a fourth side rail disposed substantially along a second outer edge of the second support pad assembly opposite the first outer edge of the second support assembly. 
     
     
         3 . The mattress core of  claim 1 , wherein the comfort pad layer is configured to provide a temperature comfort preference to a user. 
     
     
         4 . The mattress core of  claim 1 , wherein the comfort pad layer comprises one or more ventilation channels. 
     
     
         5 . A modular multi-component mattress system comprising:
 a mattress core comprising:
 a base layer; 
 a first support pad assembly comprising a first side rail; and 
 a second support pad assembly comprising a second side rail, wherein the first side rail and the second side rail are fitted side-by-side when the mattress core is assembled. 
   
     
     
         6 . The mattress system of  claim 5 , wherein the first support pad assembly comprises third side rail. 
     
     
         7 . The mattress system of  claim 5 , wherein the second support pad assembly comprises a fourth. 
     
     
         8 . The mattress system of  claim 5 , wherein the first support pad assembly and the second support pad assembly comprise vents configured to allow passage of one or more of air, heat, and moisture between the mattress system and a surrounding environment. 
     
     
         9 . The mattress system of  claim 5 , further comprising a comfort pad layer selectively coupled to a top portion of the first and second support pad assemblies when the mattress core is assembled, wherein the comfort pad layer comprises channels configured to allow passage of one or more of air, heat, and moisture between the mattress system and a surrounding environment. 
     
     
         10 . The mattress system of  claim 5 , further comprising a cover assembly and a topper layer, wherein the cover assembly is configured to contain the mattress core, wherein the topper layer is configured to selectively couple to the cover assembly, wherein the topper layer comprises a topper pad, the topper pad comprising a cool comfort side and a warm comfort side. 
     
     
         11 . A modular multi-component mattress system comprising:
 a base layer; and   a support pad assembly comprising a pad and a side rail, wherein the side rail has a greater stiffness than the pad and selectively couples to the base layer.   
     
     
         12 . The mattress system of  claim 11 , wherein the support pad assembly is a first support pad assembly, further comprising a second support pad assembly that selectively couples to the base layer. 
     
     
         13 . The mattress system of  claim 11 , further comprising a topper layer comprising a cool comfort and a warm comfort side. 
     
     
         14 . The mattress system of  claim 11 , wherein the topper layer is configured to detachably and selectively couple with the cover assembly.
