A bedding product such as an adjustable bed comprises a stationary frame which is inclined regardless of the position of the adjustable bed. The stationary frame is supported by multiple leg assemblies of different heights. Due to wedges sandwiched between the leg assemblies and mounting brackets of the stationary frame, the leg assemblies remain flat on the ground providing a stable support for the bedding product. Each leg assembly is secured to one of the mounting brackets.

A patient transport apparatus comprises support structure. The support structure comprises a base, a support frame, and a patient support deck. A headboard and a footboard are coupled to the support structure. The support frame comprises a head section and a body section, the body section coupled to the patient support deck. The patient support deck comprises a patient support surface capable of articulating relative to the support frame. The head section is movable relative to the body section to define first and second configurations of the support frame, the support frame having a first footprint in the first configuration and a second footprint, smaller than the first footprint, in the second configuration.

A connecting device for a push rod of a bed frame is configured to connect a bedside drive rod and a bed-end drive rod of the bed frame. The connecting device contains: a fixing sheet, a coupling sheet, and at least one first locking element. The fixing sheet includes a first connection orifice fitted with the bedside drive rod or the bed-end drive rod, and at least one first lock orifice. The coupling sheet includes at least one second lock orifice and a joining portion. The at least one first locking element is inserted through the at least one first lock orifice of the fixing sheet and the at least one second lock orifice of the coupling sheet so as to connect the fixing sheet and the coupling sheet.

A supporting module comprises a sensing spring, an outer spring and a sensor, wherein the sensing spring is slightly higher than the outer spring, the sensing spring is sleeved inside the outer spring, and the bottom of the sensing spring is connected to the sensor. An automatically adjustable bed, comprising the supporting module.

A telescopic bracket has a retracted state and an extended state. The telescopic bracket comprises a fixed assembly, a moving member, and a spring. The moving member is movably coupled to the fixed assembly to move along an axial direction of the fixed assembly, causing the telescopic bracket to switch between the retracted state and the extended state. The spring is disposed between the fixed assembly and the moving member to provide an elastic restoring force to the moving member, and the cross section of the spring could be a trapezoidal shape, a rectangular shape, a square shape, a parallelogram shape, or an unequal quadrilateral shape. An open-up device using the telescopic bracket is also provided.

A retainer system is configured to retain a mattress to an adjustment mechanism configured to move the mattress between a flat configuration and one or more inclined configurations. The retainer system includes a strap and an elongated stiffener. The strap is configured to extend through a sleeve on an underside of the mattress and having first and second ends that are releasably coupled to the adjustment mechanism proximate each left and right sides thereof. The elongated stiffener is coupled to the strap and configured to, when pushed through the sleeve, insert the strap through the sleeve.

An articulating bed incorporates a base frame having base side rails and a head end and a foot end, and a support frame having support side rails. An extension assembly including a carriage is carried by the base side rails. The carriage is mounted with wheels engaging the base side rails to translate from a first position through a range progressing toward the head end to a fully translated position and a scissor mechanism having at least one forward scissor assembly and at least one aft scissor assembly extended by the translation of the carriage to place the scissor mechanism in an extended position to elevate the support frame from the base frame. Abase shroud is engaged to the base frame. A telescoping shroud is engaged to the support frame and telescopically received within the base shroud with the scissor mechanism in a retracted position and extended from the base shroud with the scissor mechanism in the extended position.
