A bedding foundation has a linear actuator for moving a roller carriage forward and backwards. The roller carriage includes wheels which move along rails supported below a rigid platform having an opening extending through the platform. The roller carriage includes a lifter which raises and lowers a roller independently of the movement of the linear actuator. Regardless of the position of the linear actuator, the roller may be raised or lowered. The roller moves back and forth inside the opening extending through the rigid platform and imparts a massage movement to a mattress above the foundation.

A packaged mattress foundation is sized to fit on the most common sized pallets with a minimum height per packaged mattress foundation to maximize a number of packaged mattress foundations that can be fit in a given allowable height for a pallet stack. Maximizing the number of merchandise on a give pallet is particularly important to “big-box retailers” that display merchandise stacked on pallets as shipped. To minimize the height of the packaged mattress foundation, components such as motors, frames, and boarders are distinct (i.e., not overlapping) when the two panels are folded, like a clamshell, for shipping.

A connector element having a body portion having a substantially planar first abutment surface, a substantially planar second abutment surface, and a corner surface extending between a terminating edge of the first abutment surface and a terminating edge of the second abutment surface, wherein the first abutment surface and the second abutment surface are formed at substantially 90° relative to one another; one or more protrusions extending perpendicular to the first abutment surface; one or more protrusions extending perpendicular to the second abutment surface; at least one first deflectable flexible finger extending from the first abutment surface; and at least one second deflectable flexible finger extending from the second abutment surface, wherein at least a portion of each deflectable flexible finger extends substantially perpendicular to a respective abutment surface, and wherein each deflectable flexible finger comprises a tang that extends to form a camming surface and a shoulder.

This invention is involved in the manufacturing technology, which is a kind of easy assembly metal bed frame. This metal bed frame includes metal frames, the first main slats, supports and supporting rods. The ends of the bed frame are welded with metal plate connections which have elliptic holes at both ends. The bed frame consists of two main bars at both sides, setting fixed slot at the inner side. At both ends, the first main slats are the mobile connection and the second main salts, which can be vertically connected with support by using bolts to link through the fixed holes at the upper and down sides of the second main slats, are the fixed connection. In the middle of the bed frame, the bars are insetted elliptic nuts on one side and bolts on the other side and links the supporting rods at the bottom. Using plastic fasteners to connect the bed frame and slats is easy to operate and durable. Supports not only insure the stability and safety of the metal bed frame, but also create an opportunity to use light slats in order to reduce the weight of bed frame.

A bed frame includes: an external frame, an internal supporting portion and a bed cover. The external frame is a hollow frame. The internal supporting portion is of a large-interval structure. The internal supporting portion is arranged inside the external frame (1) to reinforce the strength of the external frame. The bed cover covers the top faces of the external frame and the internal supporting portion to form a flat bed surface.

A head elevation apparatus configured to be positioned under a mattress may include a base panel and a top panel positioned on the base panel. The top panel may include a center panel hingedly coupled to the base panel. An upper flap may be hingedly coupled to the center panel. A lower flap may be hingedly coupled to the center panel.

A frame unit includes first and second bars spaced apart from each other, third bars disposed between the first and second bars, and connectors removably connecting the third bars with the first and second bars. A connector includes a body fixedly connected with the first or second bar, a casing defining an interior to receive an end of a third bar, and a slot allowing insertion of the end of the third bar into the casing. The interior defined by the casing has narrow and wide sides corresponding to the narrow and wide sides of the end of the third bar. As such, when the end of the third bar is inserted into the casing, the end of the third bar is prevented from any translational movement within the casing. The connectors allow quick and easy connection of bars, and in the meantime enhance the stability of the frame unit.

An assemblable mattress support can be shipped with all of its components compactly packed into the headboard. The mattress support includes a foldable longitudinal bar, a lateral bar, side panels, wooden slats, block legs and a footboard, all of which fit inside a compartment in the headboard. In an assembled state of the mattress support, a first connector at one end of the longitudinal bar attaches to a third connector on the outside of the headboard. A second connector at the other end of the longitudinal bar attaches to a fourth connector on the footboard. The middle of the lateral bar connects to the middle of the longitudinal bar. The block legs are attached to the bottom sides of the headboard and footboard. The slats are attached to one another by fabric ribbons and are placed in parallel over the longitudinal bar and support ledges on the side panels.

The present invention relates to the field of bed frame structures, and in particular, to a novel detachable bed frame assembly mechanism. The novel detachable bed frame assembly mechanism includes a bed frame body. The bed frame body includes an outer frame, an inner frame, and two sets of wooden strips. The outer frame is a rectangular frame including two horizontal tubes, two lateral tubes, four L-shaped iron-plate connectors, bolts, and nuts. The inner frame includes at least one horizontal connecting tube, a plurality of lateral connecting tubes, iron sheets, bolts, and nuts. The two sets of wooden strips are symmetrically disposed on the horizontal connecting tube and the horizontal tubes on both sides of the horizontal connecting tube and are parallel to the lateral tubes, to connect the horizontal connecting tube to the horizontal tubes. The invention is easy to assemble and disassemble and is safe and reliable.
