A spring assembly is provided including a plurality of interconnected longitudinal blocks of pocketed coil springs. Each block includes a pair of interconnected strips of pocketed springs which are preferably arranged in a square array. Each pair of strips is tightly encased by a flexible cover. The covers are connected to each other along longitudinal hinge lines which allows the assembly to bend easily in at least one direction.

A flexible spring assembly comprising a plurality of interconnected parallel blocks having respective top and bottom surfaces, each of said blocks including first and second substantially parallel strips of interconnected pocketed coil springs, said strips each being defined by a plurality of coil springs encased between plies of a fabric strip, said plies being attached to each other between each coil spring to define individual compartments for each spring, said strips being connected to each other so as to form a non-nested arrangement of said pocketed springs, and a flexible cover wrapped about and tightly encasing said connected strips; said blocks being hingedly attached to each other by longitudinal lines of connection connecting adjacent flexible covers to each other, said lines of connection being in a plane substantially perpendicular to the axes of each of said coil springs of an adjacent block; there being no connections between said blocks other than said longitudinal lines of connection.
