The disclosed apparatus, systems and methods relate to stackable, foldable beds. The modular, stacking and folding have folding legs and couplers and can be stacked into a column for compact efficient storage or rapidly deployed in the event of need. The beds provide a temporary storage solution and can have a variety of additional components for use in hospital settings.

A bed roll guard apparatus includes a base sheet having an end portion with an elastic band configured to be secured to a mattress. A first longitudinal pocket of the apparatus includes a first longitudinal pocket inner end coupled to the base sheet and a first longitudinal pocket outer end coupled to the base sheet and different in length than the first longitudinal pocket inner end. The second longitudinal pocket of the apparatus includes a second longitudinal pocket inner end coupled to the base sheet and a second longitudinal pocket outer end coupled to the base sheet and different in length than the second longitudinal pocket inner end. The first and second longitudinal pockets define, respectively, first and second bolster receptacle spaces between the respective first and second longitudinal pockets and the base sheet. First and second bolsters are received at the first and second bolster receptacle spaces, respectively.

A convertible bed with a moveable sidewall that can collapse from an upright and locked position to be stored underneath a mattress of the bed. The moveable wall includes pins that travel along sliding tracks that have J-shaped slots underneath the mattress during the conversion from open to closed positions. The moveable sidewall is lifted upward and inwardly to disengage the lock and the folds outwardly and downwardly to slide under the mattress for storage.

A bedside rail, a system of coordinating two bedside rails, and a method of using the one or more bedside rails to prevent a user of an associated mattress from having their elbows slide off the mattress. Each bedside rail has an adjustable vertical component as well as an adjustable bar that can separately moves along the vertical component. A supporting line can extend between the adjustable bars of two bedside rails along opposing sides of a mattress. A cushioned portion over the vertical component can be selectively elevated adjacent to and above a top surface of the mattress along both sides thereof.

A bed rail for engagement between a mattress and a box spring and having a base support and a guard frame, with guard frame having a pivot that pivots and slides in the base support. The base support includes a first seat that seats the pivot and a second seat that seats a biased piece sliding axially on a first support member of the guard frame. The first support member extends from a plastic piece that forms a junction from which a second support member and the pivot extend and that nestles up to the second seat.

Guard rail for a bed, guide rack for a guard rail and a bed with such guard rail The invention relates to a guard rail with bars intended for extending along a side of the bed. Guide racks are arranged along opposing ends of the bars. The guide racks include fastening means for securing the guide racks to the bed. Each end of the bars is adapted for engaging a suspension element. Each of the guide racks has a hook at a top position of the guide rack. A top suspension element has a pawl capable of engaging and disengaging the hook of the guide rack. Between a top suspension element and a neighbouring lower suspension element, a connecting element is provided, having a variable extension and a maximum extension between the top suspension element and the neighbouring first lower suspension element. The invention also relates to a guide rack, a method of operating the guard rail and to a bed with a guard rail.
