FOLDABLE BED FRAME

Abstract

A foldable bed frame comprising two symmetrically arranged unit bed frames is provided. The two unit bed frames are hinged to each other at their connection. A unit bed frame is further provided with a first plurality of support legs in hinge connection with the unit bed frame. The direction in which the plurality of first support legs fold is perpendicular to the direction in which the unit bed frame folds. Both the folding and unfolding of the foldable bed frame are very simple and convenient, and the volume after folding is small, which facilitates storage and transport.

Embodiment 1

[0033] As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, a foldable bed frame comprises two unit bed frames 10 arranged horizontally. The two unit bed frames are hinged to each other at their connection. As illustrated in FIG. 1, each unit bed frame 10 comprises a first bed frame body 100 and a second bed frame body 110. The first bed frame body 100 and the second bed frame body 110 are hinged to each other. Also, first support legs 20 are disposed on the first bed frame body. These first support legs 20 are hinged to the first bed frame body 100. Referring to FIG. 2, the first support legs 20 can be folded toward respective front and back directions.

[0034] Referring to FIG. 1 to FIG. 5, the first support leg 20 comprises a first support bar 200, a second support bar 202, connection pieces 210 and an elastic piece 220. The connection pieces 210 are symmetrically arranged on the left edge and the right edge of the inner side of the first bed frame body 100. The first support bar 200 and the second support bar 202 are each hinged to these two connection pieces 210. One end of the elastic piece 220 is connected to the connection piece 210, and the other end thereof is connected to the support bar 200. A connection bar 204 is further disposed between the first support bar 200 and the second support bar 202.

[0035] Referring to FIG. 4, the support bar 200 is provided with a boss 202A, the elastic piece 220 is provided with a slide groove 222A, and the boss 202A can be snapped into the slide groove 222A and slide inside the slide groove 222A. When the support bar 200 is unfolded, the boss 202A is snapped into the groove at one end of the slide groove 222A, such that the support bar 200, the elastic piece 220, and the connection piece 210 are fixed as a triangle, and the support bar will not shake, thereby ensuring the stability of the foldable bed frame.

[0036] Referring to FIG. 5, the elastic piece 220 is provided with a boss 202B, the support bar 200 is provided with a slide groove 222B, and the boss 202B can be snapped into the slide groove 222B and slide inside the slide groove. When the support bar 200 is unfolded, the boss is snapped into the groove at one end of the slide groove, such that the support bar 200, the elastic piece 220, and the connection piece 210 are fixed as a triangle, and the support bar will not shake, thereby ensuring the stability of the foldable bed frame.

[0037] Referring to FIG. 1 to FIG. 10, when the support bar 200 is folded, the top surface and the bottom surface of the support bar do not go beyond the top surface and the bottom surface of the first bed frame body, namely the width L1 of the support bar 200 is smaller than or equal to the height L2 of the first reference side frame.

Embodiment 2

[0038] Referring to FIG. 1 to FIG. 10, the foldable bed frame divides the bed frame into 4 parts that are horizontally symmetrical, and all folded support legs are retracted inside the bed frame, such that the overall folded bed frame takes up a small volume to facilitate storage and transport.

[0039] Referring to FIG. 11 to FIG. 12, the difference between Embodiment 2 and Embodiment 1 lies in that the foldable bed frame in Embodiment 1 has 4 bed frame bodies after being folded, while the foldable bed frame in Embodiment 2 has only 2 bed frame bodies after being folded, the folding steps for Embodiment 1 can be found in FIG. 1 to FIG. 10, while the folding steps for Embodiment 2 are just as follows: the first support legs 20 are folded, and then the two unit bed frames 10 are folded over to complete the folding.

[0040] The description above only lists embodiments of the present utility model, which are not used to limit the scope of the present utility model. Equivalent substitutions, such as variations and modifications, made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the present utility model shall be encompassed by the scope of the present utility model.
