A position adjustment mechanism for a lifting balance device contains: a first cover and an adjustment device. The first cover includes at least one lifting balance device, and each of the at least one lifting balance device includes a first support, a second support intersected with the first support, and a shaft configured to connected the first and second supports. The adjustment device is located bellow the shaft. The adjustment device is fixed inside the first cover, the first cover has a first opening located below the shaft. A threaded sleeve is connected with the first opening and is screwed with a threaded tube, such that the threaded tube is adjustably moved relative to the threaded sleeve so as to change a position of a top of the threaded tube and to limit a lowest descending position of each of the first support and the second support.

A mattress and mattress system for an adjustable base foundation configured to accommodate two mattresses in a side-by-side relationship and independently articulate each of the two mattresses. The mattress generally includes an edge zone about a perimeter of a selected one of the lateral sides, and a comfort zone. The edge zone can have a greater firmness level than the comfort zone. The mattress system includes two mattresses in a side-by-side relationship, wherein each mattress includes the edge zone about the perimeter of a selected one of the lateral sides, and a comfort zone. The mattresses are arranged on the adjustable base foundation such that the exterior facing lateral sides of each mattress are defined by the edge zone. The comfort zone includes the interior facing lateral sides.

A foldable electric bed comprising a front half portion and a rear half portion, wherein the front half portion and the rear half portion are rotatably connected through hinge members wherein the front half portion further comprising a front bed board and a front bed frame, and the rear half portion furthering comprising a rear bed board and a rear bed frame, wherein the front bed board and the rear bed board are made of wood boards or iron nets, wherein the electric bed may be folded during transportation.

An actuating mechanism for lumbar support in an articulating bed incorporates a support frame for an articulating section having a seat section and an upper body support section. An actuator with a ram is pivotally attached to the upper body support section with a bracket. A lumbar actuation lever is pivotally attached to the ram and extends from a torque tube rotatable in bearing blocks mounted to the upper body support section. A second actuator is pivotally attached to the upper body support section with a second bracket and includes a second ram. At least one angled lifter arm extends from the torque tube and pivotally attaches to at least one lever engaging a lumbar support element through at least one aperture in the upper body support section. An actuator element extends from at least one lever and is connected to the second ram. The actuator element and associated lever rotate about a pivot point on the associated angled lifter arm.

A multi-factor authentication method and system is provided such that a push notification during an authentication process is only received if a mobile device and user are authenticated prior to receiving the push notification. Either the mobile device itself or a second device sending the push notification may be programmed to either reject or not forward the authentication request. Additionally, using the method of the present invention, enhanced security is provided by requiring the location of the mobile device and the second device to be approximately in the same geographical location.

A bed and frame assembly includes a box that is positionable on a horizontal support surface. A pair of tracks is each of the tracks is removably disposed on the box. A lid is slidably disposed on the box for supporting a mattress. The lid is positionable in a first position to close the box or a second position to facilitate sheets on the mattress to be changed. A plurality of roller units is each disposed on the lid and rollably engages a respective one of the tracks to facilitate the lid to be rolled between the first position and the second position. A sliding unit is integrated into the box and the sliding unit is in mechanical communication with the lid. The sliding unit is actuatable in a closing condition for sliding the lid into the first position and the sliding unit is actuatable in an opening condition for sliding the lid into the second position.

An electric bed frame, including a frame body, an electric support plate, a driving device, and bed legs detachably connected to the frame body. The frame body includes a first base frame and a second base frame, the electric support plate includes a first electric support plate connected to the first base frame, and a second electric support plate connected to the second base frame, the first base frame and the first electric support plate form a first folding unit, and the second base frame and the second electric support plate form a second folding unit; the first folding unit and the second folding unit are rotatably connected by a rotation mechanism, and when being rotated to an extreme position, the first folding unit and the second folding unit are parallel, and the driving device is positioned between the first folding unit and the second folding unit.

A system can include a zipper that connects a mattress to a bed foundation. For example, the zipper can extend from a head end to a foot end of an adjustable foundation. For another example, a zipper can connect to a mattress along a seam of the mattress and/or to a foundation along a seam of a foundation. For another example, a first zipper can connect the mattress core to a second zipper and the second zipper can connect a foundation to the first zipper. For another example, first and second zippers can be substantially vertically aligned.
