A system for adjusting the microclimate of a bed environment includes a multi-zone mattress-style support having individual heating zones, a heater for heating the individual heating zones, a cooler for cooling the multi-zone mattress-style support, and temperature sensors. The cooler includes the multi-zone mattress-style support at least one air duct with the multi-zone mattress-style support for transporting ambient air through the multi-zone mattress-style support.

Temperature-controlled multi-zone mattress-style support

A system for improving a person's sleep includes a bedding layer having a plurality of individually controllable thermally adjustable zones, a plurality of temperature sensors, where at least one temperature sensor per thermally adjustable zone is dispersed throughout the bedding layer. Further, a controller is configured to control the heating power of each thermally adjustable zone, and detect in which the body presence is detected.

A heating device for heating a fluid in a container, in particular milk in a baby bottle, the heating device including a heat transfer surface for transferring heat to the fluid, wherein the heating device is arranged to be brought into association with the container such that, in use, the heat transfer surface contacts the fluid to transfer heat to the fluid.

Device for heating fluid in a container

A submount for arranging electronic components on a substrate is provided. The submount comprises a head member and at least one substrate-engaging member protruding from the head member. The head member comprises at least two, from each other isolated, electrically conductive portions, where each electrically conductive portion comprises a component contact, adapted for connection of electronic components thereto, and a substrate contact on arranged on said substrate side, adapted for bringing said electrically conductive portions in contact with a circuitry comprised in said substrate. The submount of the present invention may be used to attach electronic components, such as light-emitting diodes, to a textile substrate, without the need for soldering the electronic component directly on the substrate.
