Abstract

A pillow including at least an inner assembly having a first sealed material-filled pocket juxtaposed with a second sealed material-filled pocket, the sealed pockets directly joined to one another and defining a chamber, the chamber containing an inner bag of shredded material, and the inner assembly enclosed within an outer sleeve.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A pillow comprising;
 an inner assembly comprising,   a first sealed pocket enclosed by seams and containing a first filler material;   a second sealed pocket enclosed by seams and containing a second filler material, the second sealed pocket juxtaposed with the first sealed pocket;   at least a portion of the seams of the first sealed pocket coupled directly to at least a portion of the seams of the second sealed pocket, the direct seam coupling forming a chamber between the first sealed pocket and the second sealed pocket; and,   an inner bag enclosed within the chamber, the inner bag containing a third filler material.   
     
     
         2 . The pillow of  claim 1  further comprising an outer sleeve enclosing the inner assembly. 
     
     
         3 . The pillow of  claim 1 , wherein the chamber comprises an open end closeable by a closing member. 
     
     
         4 . The pillow of  claim 3 , wherein the closing member is selected from the group consisting of a zipper, snaps, buttons, fabric ties, laces, hook-and-loop fasteners, hook-and-pile fasteners and touch fasteners. 
     
     
         5 . The pillow of  claim 1 , wherein the first and second sealed pocket filler materials are the same. 
     
     
         6 . The pillow of  claim 1 , wherein the inner bag third filler material comprises shredded latex. 
     
     
         7 . The pillow of  claim 6  wherein the inner bag filler material comprises talalay latex. 
     
     
         8 . A method for manufacturing a pillow, comprising:
 providing a first sealed pocket comprising one or more seams, the first sealed pocket containing a first filler material, and a second sealed pocket comprising one or more seams, the second sealed pocket containing a second filler material;   juxtaposing the second sealed pocket with the first sealed pocket;   directly coupling at least a portion of the one or more seams of the first sealed pocket with at least a portion of the one or more seams of the second sealed pocket;   forming a chamber between the first sealed pocket and the second sealed pocket, the chamber closed at one end and open at another end;   introducing a bag containing a third filler material into the chamber formed by the coupled pockets.   
     
     
         9 . The method of  claim 8  wherein the inner bag containing a third filler material is introduced through the chamber opening. 
     
     
         10 . The method of  claim 8  further comprising providing an outer sleeve. 
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 10  further comprising enclosing the inner assembly in the outer sleeve. 
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 8  providing a closing member for closing the opening of the chamber. 
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 12  wherein the closing member is selected from the group consisting of a zipper, snaps, buttons, fabric ties, laces, hook-and-loop fasteners, hook-and-pile fasteners and touch fasteners. 
     
     
         14 . The method of  claim 8  wherein the filler material of the first sealed pocket and the second sealed pocket comprises polyester fiber. 
     
     
         15 . The method of  claim 8  wherein the filler material of the first sealed pocket is different than the filler material of the second sealed pocket. 
     
     
         16 . The method of  claim 8  wherein the filler material of the inner bag comprises shredded latex. 
     
     
         17 . The method of  claim 8  wherein the filler material of the inner bag comprises shredded talalay latex.
