Abstract

This paper researched the pressure distribution on mattresses for different genders. A total of 72 subjects were selected in this experiment and the ratio of male and female was 1:1. Seven mattresses with different hardness were selected. The body pressure measure system (BPMS) was used to get the pressure distribution data, and subjective comfort evaluation questionnaire was used to get the subjective comfort score of the mattress. Results indicated that the back pressure and waist pressure of subjects with different genders were different. The back contact area, waist contact area and hip contact area of subjects with different genders were different, too. The subjective comfort evaluation was combined to determine the maximum pressure value and contact area recommendation value of different parts of the body, which can provide technical guidance for the ergonomic design of the mattress and reference for consumers.
