Abstract

See full text

A self-adjusting, non-powered smart response technology mattress generally includes an accelerated calibration system comprising a valve fluidly connected to a body support device including a plurality of fluid support cells, wherein each fluid support cell includes an envelope and a reforming element disposed within the envelope; and a non-powered manifold system including a manifold conduit interconnecting at least two of the fluid support cells, and intake and exhaust valves fluidly coupled to the manifold conduit configured to dynamically open and close in response to a weight load. The accelerated calibration system is configured to selectively permit fluid flow out of the fluid support cells in the absence of a weight load upon opening of the valve. Also discloses is a process for releasing excess pressure formed as a result of temperature and barometric pressure changes in the self-adjusting, non-powered smart response technology mattress.
