An air distribution pad comprises an upper layer, a lower layer, and a spacer material located between the upper layer and the lower layer, the spacer material configured to allow air to pass therethrough. An air distributor is configured to distribute air to the spacer material, wherein the air distributor comprises a port configured to receive an air hose, wherein the port is directed laterally sideways from the air distributor. At least one joining structure is coupled to the upper layer and the lower layer, the at least one joining structure providing one or more channels formed through the spacer material in fluid communication with the air distributor. The one or more channels are configured to direct generally laterally flowing air from the port of the air distributor to a generally longitudinal direction along the at least one channel.

Distribution pad for a temperature control system

A system includes an air distribution pad and an air distributor. The air distribution pad is adapted to fit substantially on an upper bed surface of a mattress of an adjustable bed and comprises a head portion, a foot portion, a longitudinal middle portion between the head portion and the foot portion, and an upper surface extending along the head portion, the longitudinal middle portion and the foot portion. The air distributor is operably connected to the air distribution pad so as to create a flow path from the air distributor through the air distribution pad to the upper surface. The air distributor is connected to the air distribution pad within the longitudinal middle portion of the air distribution pad.
