What is a mattress zone adjustment system?
This type of electric actuator system is made for adjusting the firmness of mattresses in beds. This is achieved by fitting one or more Baselift™ electric linear actuators underneath the mattress – not inside it. The Baselift™ will easily fit under most beds or in most bed frames. The setup can vary depending on the need. However, it can be configured to adjust between 0-100 mm.
The actuator can both push and pull, making it possible to adjust firmness to be both more firm or less firm than the starting point. When the actuator pushes into the mattress it will increase the firmness and support of the mattress in the relevant areas. The same goes for the opposite direction where the release of pressure to a mattress means it becomes less firm in the specified area. For a user this means everything from pressure relief, more support where needed or spine alignment for more comfortable sleep.
This type of system is easy to mount within a bed frame and introduce a new sort of individualised comfort in the bedding industry.
How does mattress zone adjustment work?
- Select a mattress zone.
- The actuator moves beneath the mattress.
Pressure to the mattress will either increase or decrease in the selected area. - Support or relief in the selected area increases.
- The user experiences a firmer or softer area.
How do I control the movement?
We offer manual adjustment with wireless hand controls.
Typical mattress zones
This is an example of how mattress zones are most commonly arranged in a double bed:
- Shoulder zone
- Hip zone
- Lumbar zone
How does this affect my bed frame?
The frame for your ordinary bed only needs minor adjustments to offer mattress firmness adjustment. The Baselift actuator needs to have a stabile foundation to push into a mattress, and it needs to push into something which provides a balanced pressure upwards. This can be achieved in many different ways – usually unique to the specific brand.
Typical system setup
The most common setup of a mattress zone adjustment system is between 1-4 comfort zones and can consist of:
- Baselift™ Residential actuators
- CBD6S Residential control box
- BLE2LIN Bluetooth® adapter
- Hand control
The concept allows for up to 8 Baselift™ actuators connected to 2 control boxes, and can be further developed as a multi-parallel system with an additional 8 actuators, and 2 control boxes, if the application requires it.
Why call it mattress zone adjustment?
We refer to zone adjustment in a mattress because we use one or more actuators to create the feeling of the firmness of a mattress changing in defined areas. The user simply feels themselves adjust the mattress firmness to an ideal comfort level. How these areas or zones are placed and managed depends on the setup, but from a user perspective the change in firmness happens in the mattress.
