A shippable and foldable bed foundation for supporting a bed mattress. The bed foundation includes a base including a first frame having a bottom and a top, a second frame having a bottom and a top, and a connector pivotally connecting the second frame to the first frame. The first frame and the second frame are selectively pivotal with respect to one another about a pivot axis, such that the first frame and the second frame are selectively pivotal with respect to one another between an open unfolded position wherein the tops of the first frame and the second frame are generally coplanar and are adapted to support the bed mattress and a closed folded position wherein the base is folded and the top of the second frame overlies the top of the first frame.

A bed assembly includes a foldable multi-section bed base and a compressible mattress. The decking of the bed base defines a cavity in a folded position, and the compressible mattress is contained within the cavity. The decking also including folded portions to further decrease the dimensions of the bed assembly in the folded position.

A furniture object, configured to store a foldable bed, may include a fixed panel and a foldable support platform including distal and proximate support panels. The fixed panel may include a bottom panel, an upper surface of the bottom panel at least partially defining a bottom inner surface of a compartment within an interior of the furniture object. The proximate support panel may be hingeably connected at opposite edges to the distal support panel and the one or more fixed panels via separate hingeable connections. The foldable support platform may between a folded position and a deployed position via a scissors-type motion. In the folded position, the foldable support platform may partially enclose the compartment. In the deployed position, the foldable support platform and bottom panel may collectively define a sleeping platform that structurally supports a bed resting on the proximate and distal support panels and the bottom panel.

A bed frame has a left longitudinal support bar, a right longitudinal support bar and an intermediate longitudinal support bar, two sliding sleeves slidably disposed on the intermediate longitudinal support bar, wherein each of the sliding sleeve is provided with a bracket. The bed frame further comprises four connecting rods connected between the left longitudinal support bar or right longitudinal support bar and the intermediate longitudinal support rod, one end of each of the connecting rods is pivotally connected to the left or right longitudinal support bar, the other end is pivotally connected with the bracket so that the end of the connecting rod mounted on the bracket moves along with the sliding sleeve. The bed frame is simple and easy to fold and un-fold, while providing improved strength and stability.

A bed skeleton of an iron frame bed comprises a rectangular frame, a plurality of frame rods, and two or three longitudinal beams. The rectangular frame comprises two transverse rods and two longitudinal rods. A length of each of the two transverse rods is greater than a length of each of the two longitudinal rods. The two or three longitudinal beams divide the rectangular frame into three or four individual cells. The plurality of frame rods are evenly disposed in the three or four individual cells. Each of the plurality of frame rods is arranged transversely. A length of each of the plurality of frame rods is shorter than a length of each of the two or three longitudinal beams, and each end of each of the plurality of frame rods is connected to one of the two longitudinal rods or one of the two or three longitudinal beams.

A sliding lounger comprises a seating portion having seating slats and seating spaces between the seating slats, a back support portion having back slats and back spaces between the back slats, the back slats being receivable within the seating spaces and the seating slats being receivable within the back spaces, and a foot support portion having foot slats and foot spaces between the foot slats, the foot slats being receivable within the seating spaces, and the seating slats being receivable within the foot spaces. The back portion and foot support portion move between an open position where the back and foot slats are not received within the seating spaces and a compact position where the back and foot slats are received within the seating spaces.

A chest may be configured to transition between an open position and a closed position, the chest including an enclosure configured to store a foldable mattress supported by a sleeping platform when the foldable mattress is in an unfolded state. The chest may include a top panel, a front panel, and side panels, the top panel configured to be manually lifted off of the chest to form a lower portion of the sleeping platform.

A bed base is configured as a light weight, collapsible bed base having a plurality of separate and independent bed sections. A pair of brackets are provided, and each bracket is releasably attachable to each one of the plurality of separate and independent bed sections to form the bed base. The plurality of separate and independent bed sections connected only through the pair of brackets.

A flexible article is provided having a core formed from a plurality of laminar panels that are inter-connected to provide an expandable structure upon movement of the panels away from each other. Opposite ends of the core terminate, in a pair of end panels whereby the end panels may be moved apart to expand the expandable structure. Each of the panels are made from wood material. The panels, for example, include two wood sheets with longitudinally oriented grains and a flexible backing sheet that is sandwiched and adhered between the two wood sheets.
