What type of mattress could improve human thermal comfort and sleep quality in hot/cold weather is open questions. In this study, using four different mattresses (temperature-controlled mattress with built-in circulating water pipes, temperature-controlled mattress with built-in integral water cushion, 3D air mesh fabric mattress, and latex foam mattress), a series of sleep experiments were conducted to establish the appropriate thermal comfort zone within bed microclimate for optimal sleep quality. The results showed that, compared with a common latex foam mattress, all temperature-controlled mattresses have excellent cooling performance. Different temperature-controlled devices generated different thermal responses. The mattress with built-in circulating water pipes offered subjects the best thermal comfort during sleep, while the mattress with an integral water cushion resulted in slightly cool and slightly humid states. As the application of innovative mattresses in hot weather, subjects experienced better sleep quality by using a mattress with built-in circulating water pipes and 3D air mesh fabric mattress. Moreover, the comfortable temperature ranges of the human-mattress interface and bed microclimate were 32.3–33.8 °C and 32.8–33.6 °C, respectively. These findings are helpful to better understand the effect of innovative designed mattresses on human thermal comfort, in order to obtain the optimal sleep quality.

创新设计的床垫在炎热天气下的热舒适性和睡眠质量的比较研究

在炎热/寒冷的天气中,哪种类型的床垫可以改善人体的热舒适性和睡眠质量是一个尚待解决的问题。在这项研究中,使用了四种不同的床垫(带有内置循环水管的温度控制床垫,带有内置整体水垫的温度控制床垫,3D气孔网状床垫和乳胶泡沫床垫),进行了一系列睡眠实验为了在最佳睡眠质量下在床小气候内建立适当的热舒适区。结果表明,与普通的乳胶泡沫床垫相比,所有可控温的床垫均具有出色的冷却性能。不同的温度控制设备产生不同的热响应。内置循环水管的床垫可为受试者提供最佳的睡眠舒适感,而带有一体式水垫的床垫会产生凉爽和潮湿的状态。随着创新床垫在炎热天气中的应用,受试者通过使用带有内置循环水管和3D空气网眼织物床垫的床垫,可以改善睡眠质量。此外,人床垫界面和床微气候的舒适温度范围分别为32.3–33.8°C和32.8–33.6°C。这些发现有助于更好地了解创新设计的床垫对人体热舒适性的影响,从而获得最佳的睡眠质量。通过使用带有内置循环水管的床垫和3D空气网眼织物床垫,受试者可体验到更好的睡眠质量。此外,人床垫界面和床微气候的舒适温度范围分别为32.3–33.8°C和32.8–33.6°C。这些发现有助于更好地了解创新设计的床垫对人体热舒适性的影响,从而获得最佳的睡眠质量。通过使用带有内置循环水管的床垫和3D空气网眼织物床垫,受试者可体验到更好的睡眠质量。此外,人床垫界面和床微气候的舒适温度范围分别为32.3–33.8°C和32.8–33.6°C。这些发现有助于更好地了解创新设计的床垫对人体热舒适性的影响,从而获得最佳的睡眠质量。
