Abstract:
An apparatus for forming springs (9) for incorporation into an innerspring mattress is disclosed. The apparatus includes the use of change gears (24, 51, 23, 53) to facilitate the manufacture of a variety of innerspring sizes.
Abstract:
Method and apparatus for forming a string (136) of springs (16) enclosed within individual pockets of a fabric sleeve (33) having flat, overlapping side flaps (A, B). The flaps form a longitudinally extending side seam (138) in the string, thus preventing the common problem of false loft in conventional mattress constructions.

Abstract:
A method and apparatus for manufacturing mattresses, including the steps of forming a coil spring (12) from wire, conditioning said coil spring (12) to reduce stresses formed therein, placing said coil spring (12) within pockets (123) to create elongate strings (55) of pocketed coil springs (124), attaching said elongate strings (55) to create innerspring constructions.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus is provided to allow pocketed coil strings (20) to be 'snap-fit' into a holding harp (30) and subsequently bonded to a second coil string. The result is improved innerspring assembly which exhibits improved dimensional and structural properties.
