A pneumatic adjustment module is attachable to a support panel of a bed. The module has a base received on a support panel of the bed and a tilt panel attached to the base with a vertex hinge. A bladder is positioned between the base and tilt panel. The bladder may have a plurality of expansion segments. The bladder is pneumatically expandable from a deflated condition to an inflated condition. The tilt panel is substantially parallel to the base in the deflated condition and in the inflated condition has an effectively triangular expanded cross section with a vertex proximate the vertex hinge providing the tilt panel with a tilt angle with respect to the base.

An electromotive furniture drive includes a drive motor including an output shaft, a lift spindle arranged in a common plane with the output shaft, and a gear assembly configured to couple the output shaft of the drive motor to the lift spindle. The gear assembly includes an intermediate shaft which intersects the common plane between the lift spindle and the output shaft.

The disclosure generally relates to an adjustable bed apparatus, in particular an adjustable bed foundation. The adjustable foundation includes independently adjustable lumbar and/or neck support structures on an adjustable back/head section of the adjustable bed foundation. In some embodiments, the lumbar and neck support structures include inflatable air bladder structures. In other embodiments, the lumbar and neck support structures include mechanically actuatable subsections of the adjustable back/head section of the adjustable bed foundation.

Bed base and bed provided with the bed base, wherein the bed base is provided with massaging apparatuses having slats which are placed one after the other and which define a support plane for a mattress, wherein the massaging apparatuses include a first drive which activates a first series of slats for a massaging action and a second drive which activates a second series of slats for a massaging action.

The invention relates to an electromotive furniture drive for adjusting movable furniture parts (5, 6) of an item of functional furniture (1), having a control device (9), at least one adjusting drive (7, 8) with an electric motor, and at least one evaluation circuit (10) with an input (11, 12), which evaluation circuit can be electrically conductively connected to a sensor, which is attached to the item of functional furniture (1), and forms a proximity and/or contact detector together with said sensor. The electromotive furniture drive is distinguished in that at least two proximity and/or contact detectors are formed by in each case one sensor or a group of sensors together with the at least one evaluation circuit (10), it being possible for said proximity and/or contact detectors to be assigned to different moving furniture parts (5, 6) of the item of functional furniture (1). The invention further relates to an item of functional furniture (1) having at least two groups of movable furniture parts (5, 6) and an electromotive furniture drive of this kind.

A bed system and related method is disclosed, the bed system comprising a bed frame and a mattress assembly pivotably mounted on the bed frame for pivoting the mattress assembly about a pivot axis to form a pivot angle between the mattress assembly and a longitudinal axis of the bed frame, the mattress assembly comprising aback part, a seat part and a leg part, wherein aback normal of the back part and the pivot axis forms a back angle, a seat normal of the seat part and the pivot axis forms a seat angle, and a leg normal of the leg part and the pivot axis forms a leg angle, the bed system comprising a controller device, wherein the controller device is configured to: move the mattress assembly from a first position to a second position, wherein, in the second position, the pivot angle is a second pivot angle in a range from 30 degrees to 80 degrees, and wherein the leg angle is a second leg angle larger than 45 degrees.

An electric motor drive unit for adjusting supporting parts, articulatedly mounted relative to one another, of a support device to support a box spring mattress or an upholstered bed relative to each other. It includes a base, on which two drive units are arranged. Each drive unit includes an output member, and each interacts with a pivot lever in the installation position of the dual drive. The dual drive is disposed in an operative connection with an adjustable supporting part to pivot the same. The pivot levers are attached articulatedly mounted to the base such that the base together with the pivot levers form a unit attachable to a support device.

A coil spring mattress and adjustable foundation assembly includes a coil spring mattress; and an adjustable foundation including a mattress support surface including a head and back section hingedly connected to an intermediate section at one end and a leg and foot section hingedly connected to the intermediate section at another end, wherein the intermediate section includes a first portion and a second portion, wherein the first portion is hingedly connected to the head and back section and the second portion is hingedly connected to the leg and foot section. The intermediate or seat section is configured to increase in length upon articulation of the head and back section and/or the leg and foot section from a flat position or an increase in inclination of any section. Likewise, the intermediate or seat section is configured to decrease in length upon articulation of the head and back section and/or the leg and foot section from an inclined position to a flat position or a decrease in length upon declination of any section.

The invention provides an adjustable bed comprising a frame (20) and at least one adjustable body support section including at least an adjustable backrest support section (12) pivotally mounted for angular adjustment with respect to the frame. The frame comprises at least two hinged sections (20a, 20b) including a head end sub-assembly configured as an upper body supporting section on which the backrest support section is mounted, and a separate toe end sub-assembly configured as a lower body supporting section hinged with respect to the upper body supporting section. Actuator means (40) is disposed within at least the upper body section for angular adjustment of the adjustable body support section. The head end sub-assembly and the toe end sub-assembly are capable of being folded together to reduce the length dimension of the bed for transportation and/or storage purposes and subsequently unfolded to provide a full length adjustable bed.

A massage motor support incorporates a frame having an upper frame element and a lower frame element. A support membrane having a central aperture in a web with a securing plate and massage motor engaged through the central aperture is supported in the frame with the web engaged between clamping surfaces on the upper and lower frame elements.
