Abstract

There is provided in a preferred embodiment of the present invention a mattress assembly comprising a plurality of foam members having varying densities with at least one inflatable bladder positioned in between the members. The inflatable bladder may be inflated or deflated by a user in accordance with the user'"'"'s requirements.

Claims

1. A mattress assembly configured to support the body of at least one person, the assembly comprising:

a base member, having a base member density;

a plurality of foam members positioned above the base member, the foam members having densities, where the densities of the foam members are less than the base member density;

a first air filled bladder having a variable inflation level and a valve for varying the variable inflation level, the first air filled bladder positioned between the base member and one of the foam members.

2. The mattress assembly of claim 1, wherein the foam members are adhered by hook and loop fasteners.

3. The mattress assembly of claim 1, wherein the foam members are adhered by an adhesive.

4. The mattress assembly of claim 1, further comprising a second air filled bladder, positioned between the base member and a second one of the foam members.

5. The mattress assembly of claim 4, further comprising a third air filled bladder, positioned between the base member and a third one of the foam members.

6. The mattress assembly of claim 5, wherein the first air filled bladder is positioned corresponding to the location of a user'"'"'s back, the second air filled bladder is positioned corresponding to the location of a user'"'"'s knees, and the third air filled bladder is positioned corresponding to the location of a user'"'"'s head and neck.

7. The mattress assembly of claim 1, further comprising an electric pump connected to the first air filled bladder.

8. The mattress assembly of claim 1, wherein the density of the foam members is based on the user'"'"'s body profile.

9. The mattress assembly of claim 1, wherein the first bladder is secure to a fixed position by a fastener.

12. The mattress assembly of claim 3, wherein the adhesive is positioned around the bladder providing a small boarder between the adhesive and the bladder.

10. A mattress assembly configured to support the bodies of two persons of different body profiles, the assembly comprising:

a right base member, having a right base member density;

a left base member, having a left base member density different from the right base member density;

a plurality of foam members positioned above the base members, the foam members having densities, where the densities of the foam members are less than the base member density;

a first air filled bladder having a variable inflation level and a valve for varying the variable inflation level, the first air filled bladder positioned between the base member and one of the foam members.

11. A mattress sag repair assembly comprising:

a mattress topper having a fastener;

an inflatable bladder selectively fixed to the mattress topper by a corresponding fastener;

a valve adapted to control the inflation level of the inflatable bladder;

wherein the inflatable bladder is adapted to be positioned on a mattress at a point on the mattress that is sagging.
