Embodiment Construction

[0101] The various embodiments shown in the drawings and described herein provide a structure and system for fabricating an articulating bed frame structure, allowing a linear fabrication process with minimal labor and tooling. The frame elements are self-jigging for assembly and adaptable for a range of sizes.

[0102] With reference to the accompanying drawings, Figure 1A An articulating bed employing the structural frame disclosed herein is shown. The articulated structure 10 has a seating support 12, an upper body support element 14, a thigh support element 16 attached to the seating support element by hinges, and a calf support element 18 attached to the thigh support by hinges. element. These support elements are shown as being substantially solid, however, a rigid honeycomb material or similar material providing a rigid planar surface could also be used. The frame 20 supports the hinged structure 10 . Such as Figure 1B As shown, the carriage 22 is joined to the se...

Abstract

An articulating bed frame (20) incorporates an extruded metal frame shape (24) surrounding a sized base plate element by cutting slits in the extrusion for side lengths Bends are made at the cuts to create a complete frame to be formed into any desired bed size. The frame utilizes extruded beams with internal flanges and support channels formed therein. The extruded beam is cut to form frame side elements and end elements, and the support channels receive and support support blocks (66). These support blocks engage with carriages (22) supporting the seating section of the hinged structure.

Description

[0001] References to related applications [0002] This application claims priority to US Provisional Application No. 61993087, filed May 14, 2014, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. Background technique [0003] field [0004] The present invention relates generally to the field of adjustable beds, and more particularly to a structure for the frame of an articulated bed having an extruded support frame with a plurality of integral elements for the attachment of an upholstery. joints and support joints of multiple hinged elements. [0005] Related Technical Notes [0006] Articulating beds are becoming more popular and are being produced in a variety of sizes and styles. An assembled timber and / or metal frame is typically employed to support the hinged elements of the bed. Twin, Queen, Queen, Super King, and Freestanding Queens require different frame sizes that must be individually tooled for fabrication, resulting in many part numbers. Assembly...
