Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2014105045A1] A mattress includes a first layer of viscoelastic foam having an upper surface and a layer of non-viscoelastic foam supporting the first layer. The mattress also includes a plurality of static bolster elements positioned beneath the upper surface and clustered together to define a plurality of troughs between adjacent bolster elements. The first layer of viscoelastic foam is further compressible in regions of the mattress corresponding with the troughs than surrounding regions corresponding with the bolster elements. Each of the bolster elements is capable of exerting a reaction force having a lateral component on an individual pushing against the bolster element with a line of action through one of the troughs.
