Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of furniture technology, and in particular to a slatted frame support and an electric bed. Background Technology
[0002] In the furniture industry, the slatted support frame, as a key load-bearing component between the mattress and the bed frame, primarily functions to distribute pressure on the mattress through multiple parallel slats, while also providing a certain degree of elastic cushioning to improve sleep comfort. With the widespread adoption of electric beds, which use drive mechanisms to adjust the angles of the backrest and legboards to accommodate various user needs such as lying down, reading, and resting, higher demands are placed on the performance of the slatted support frame: it must not only possess sufficient structural strength to bear loads at different angles, but also good flexibility to accommodate the bending movements of the bed board, while minimizing noise and wear during adjustment.
[0003] Currently, existing rib support frames have the following drawbacks in practical applications:
[0004] Firstly, the mounting supports are too rigid and lack adaptive deformation capability. Existing support frames often use integrally molded block or sheet-like structures for mounting supports, serving only to fix the ends of the rib strips. When the electric bed adjusts its angle or is subjected to uneven pressure, stress concentration easily occurs at the connection between the support and the rib strips. Long-term use may lead to bending deformation of the rib strip ends or cracking of the support, affecting the stability and service life of the support.
[0005] Secondly, the support system lacks sufficient elastic cushioning, limiting comfort. Traditional ribbed mattresses are mostly single rigid rods, and their elasticity mainly depends on the bending deformation of the material itself. The rigid connection between the mounting bracket and the ribbed mattress further weakens the overall cushioning effect. When the user turns over or adjusts the bed board, the local pressure change is directly transmitted to the mattress, easily producing a harsh feel and reducing the sleep experience.
[0006] Third, the connection method between the rib strip and the support is not flexible enough and has poor adaptability. Most existing rib strips are connected to the support by bolts or slots: bolt fixing is cumbersome to install and remove, which is not conducive to later maintenance and replacement; slot tightening is prone to causing abnormal noise due to excessively loose fit due to dimensional errors, or difficult to assemble due to excessive tightness, and cannot meet the needs of the rib strip for slight displacement under stress.
[0007] To address the aforementioned issues, there is an urgent need for a slatted support frame that optimizes the installation support structure, enhances elastic buffering capacity, and improves connection flexibility to meet the diverse support performance requirements of scenarios such as electric beds. Utility Model Content
[0008] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art described above, the technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a rib support frame and an electric bed, which solves the problems of insufficient elastic buffering capacity and inconvenient assembly, maintenance and replacement of the rib support structure in the prior art.
[0009] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a rib support frame, comprising:
[0010] Multiple mounting supports are arranged in pairs. Each mounting support includes several lower arched pieces, several upper inverted arched pieces, several mounting tubes, and several mounting sleeves fixed to the corresponding mounting tubes. Adjacent mounting tubes are connected to each other by lower arched pieces, and adjacent mounting sleeves are connected to each other by upper inverted arched pieces. A deformable cavity is formed between the upper inverted arched pieces and the lower arched pieces. The mounting sleeves are provided with rib strip insertion grooves.
[0011] Two symmetrically arranged mounting rods, with the mounting supports symmetrically arranged on the mounting rods, and the mounting tube fixed to the mounting rods;
[0012] Multiple supporting ribs are provided, with both ends of each supporting rib inserted into the rib insertion groove of the corresponding mounting sleeve.
[0013] As a more preferred method, the mounting tube has a fixing hole axially, and the mounting rod has several positioning holes that are adapted to the fixing hole. The mounting tube is fixed to the mounting rod by using fasteners that pass through both the fixing hole and the positioning holes. The advantage is that the mounting tube and the mounting rod are fixed by fasteners passing through the fixing hole and the positioning hole, which not only ensures a firm connection but also prevents the mounting support from loosening or shifting during use.
[0014] As a more preferred approach, the outer contour of the supporting rib strip is an arched structure with an arc. Its advantages are that the arched structure of the supporting rib strip gives it a certain degree of elasticity and toughness, and it can undergo moderate deformation when subjected to pressure, thus distributing the force and improving the comfort of the support. At the same time, the arched structure has a stronger bending resistance than the straight structure, which can reduce the overall weight and extend the service life while ensuring the support effect.
[0015] As a more preferred embodiment, the rib support frame also includes multiple adjustable ribs and multiple clamps, using the clamps to fit the adjustable ribs and support ribs together. The advantage is that the overall support performance of the support frame can be altered through the interaction of the adjustable and support ribs via the clamps. The clamps facilitate the installation and position adjustment of the adjustable ribs, allowing the support frame to flexibly change its rigidity according to different usage requirements, thus enhancing the product's applicability and personalized experience.
[0016] As a more preferred approach, the adjusting rib strip is positioned below the supporting rib strip. Its advantage lies in the fact that, with the adjusting rib strip positioned below the supporting rib strip, when the supporting rib strip deforms downwards under pressure, it can contact the adjusting rib strip below and share the force. This ensures both the initial softness of the support and provides additional support when the pressure increases, preventing excessive deformation and achieving a gradual increase in support strength, thus balancing comfort and support.
[0017] As a more preferred approach, the outer contour of the adjusting rib strip is also an arched structure with a curved shape. Its advantage lies in the fact that the arched structure of the adjusting rib strip matches the arched structure of the supporting rib strip, forming a more closely fitting stress surface when they come into contact, dispersing pressure and preventing damage caused by excessive local stress. Simultaneously, the elasticity of the arched structure itself makes the adjustment process smoother, improving the overall flexibility and stability of the support.
[0018] As a preferred method, the pair of adjusting ribs and supporting ribs are fitted together by two sleeves. The overall stiffness is adjusted by regulating the gap between the supporting and adjusting ribs through adjusting the distance between the two sleeves. Specifically, when the distance between the two sleeves is small: the gap between the two ribs within the sleeve constraint range is smaller. When an external load is applied, the slight deformation of the supporting rib can contact the adjusting rib, and the two quickly form a common load-bearing body, resulting in stronger overall resistance to deformation and thus a stiffer support frame. When the distance between the two sleeves is large: the gap in the middle area of the two ribs is larger. When an external load is applied, the supporting rib needs to deform independently to a certain extent until the gap is eliminated before the adjusting rib participates in the load-bearing. Since only the supporting rib deforms initially, the overall deformation is greater, resulting in a softer support frame. The beneficial effect is that by adjusting the distance between the two sleeves to control the gap between the supporting and adjusting ribs, precise adjustment of the support frame's stiffness is achieved. When the spacing is small, the overall firmness is better, suitable for scenarios requiring strong support; when the spacing is large, the overall softness is better, suitable for scenarios seeking comfort and relaxation. This adjustment method is simple to operate, requires no complicated tools, and can meet the personalized needs of different users, greatly enhancing the product's practicality.
[0019] As a more preferred method, the rib support frame also includes one or more reinforcing rods, with both ends of the reinforcing rods being perpendicularly fixed to the mounting rods. The advantage of this is that the perpendicular fixation of the reinforcing rods to the mounting rods forms a more stable frame structure, enhancing the deformation resistance of the entire support frame. Especially when subjected to greater pressure or external impact, it can effectively prevent the mounting rods from bending or shifting, ensuring the stress stability of the supporting ribs, extending the service life of the support frame, and making it suitable for scenarios with high structural strength requirements.
[0020] As a more preferred embodiment, the mounting support includes two mounting tubes and two mounting sleeves. The mounting sleeves are fixed to the mounting tubes, the two mounting tubes are connected by a lower arched piece, and the two mounting sleeves are connected by an upper inverted arched piece. The advantages are that the simple design of the two mounting tubes and two mounting sleeves simplifies the manufacturing process of the mounting support while ensuring structural stability, thus reducing production costs. The corresponding connection of the lower arched piece and the upper inverted arched piece makes the deformation cavity distribution more reasonable, the elastic deformation effect more uniform, and improves the comfort and consistency of the support.
[0021] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model also provides an electric bed, comprising: multiple of the aforementioned rib support frames.
[0022] As a more preferred embodiment, the electric bed also includes a bed frame and a bed board assembly mounted on the bed frame, with the rib support frame positioned on the bed board assembly. The advantage of this design is that the rib support frame, mounted on the bed board assembly, forms a synergistic support with the bed frame. This utilizes the elastic cushioning characteristics of the support frame to improve lying comfort, while the stable structure of the bed frame ensures the reliability of the overall support. This combined design allows the electric bed to provide excellent support performance while offering a more comfortable feel, enhancing the user experience.
[0023] As a more preferred embodiment, the electric bed further includes a front drive unit located at the front of the bed frame and a rear drive unit located at the rear of the bed frame. The bed board assembly includes a seat board mounted on the bed frame, a back panel hinged to the front end of the seat board, and a leg board hinged to the rear end of the seat board. The front drive unit and the rear drive unit are respectively connected to the back panel and the leg board, and can drive the back panel and the leg board to rotate along the hinged ends with the seat board. The advantage is that the front drive unit and the rear drive unit drive the back panel and the leg board to rotate, realizing multi-angle adjustment of the electric bed. The rib support frame can adapt to the support needs at different angles and maintain stable elastic support when the back panel and the leg board rotate, ensuring that the user can obtain a comfortable support experience in various lying positions, thus improving the multifunctionality and practicality of the electric bed.
[0024] As a more preferred embodiment, the electric bed also includes a padded structure that covers the exterior of the bed frame and bed board assembly. The advantage of this is that the padded structure, covering the exterior of the bed frame and bed board assembly, works in conjunction with the slatted support frame. The padded structure provides a soft touch, while the support frame provides stable elastic support; the combination of the two significantly improves the comfort of the electric bed. Simultaneously, the padded structure protects internal components, reduces wear and tear, and also enhances the appearance and overall quality of the product.
[0025] As described above, the rib support frame and electric bed of this utility model have the following beneficial effects:
[0026] This utility model's rib support frame connects the mounting tube and mounting sleeve via a lower arched plate and an upper inverted arched plate. The resulting deformation cavity gives the mounting support a certain elastic deformation capacity, which can buffer external pressure and improve support comfort. The rib insertion slot of the mounting sleeve facilitates the quick installation and removal of the support ribs. Paired mounting supports and symmetrical mounting rods ensure the stability of the support structure, allowing the support ribs to be evenly stressed. The overall structure is lightweight yet has a strong load-bearing capacity, making it suitable for various scenarios requiring elastic support. Secondly, the complementary curved structure of the upper and lower arched plates can better bear loads from above and below, improving the overall load-bearing capacity. Moreover, the lower arched plate connects to adjacent mounting tubes, and the upper inverted arched plate connects to adjacent mounting sleeves. The deformation cavities between the two are not independently separated but form an interconnected force-bearing unit. When the supporting rib strip is under stress, the load is sequentially transferred to the mounting sleeve, the upper inverted arch plate, the mounting tube, and the lower arch plate. The double arch structure transmits the force to the mounting rods on both sides through their respective curved paths, so that the force on the individual arch plate is distributed by the overall structure, reducing the stress peak of the individual component. Finally, the supporting rib strip is connected to the mounting support by plugging, making assembly and subsequent maintenance and replacement more convenient.
[0027] This invention applies a ribbed support frame to an electric bed, utilizing its elastic support characteristics to provide a more comfortable lying experience. The combination of multiple support frames can adapt to the support needs of different parts of the electric bed, and combined with the bed's adjustment functions, further enhances the bed's comfort and functionality.
[0028] In summary, the rib support frame and electric bed of this utility model, through the deformation cavity formed by the double arch structure and the mounting bracket that supports the plug-in assembly, achieve deformation buffering and quick assembly and disassembly, solving the problems of insufficient elastic buffering capacity and inconvenient assembly, maintenance and replacement of the rib support structure in the prior art.

[0061] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this utility model provides a rib support frame 1, comprising:
[0062] Multiple mounting supports 11 are arranged in pairs. Each mounting support 11 includes several lower arched pieces 111, several upper inverted arched pieces 112, several mounting tubes 113, and several mounting sleeves 114 fixed to the corresponding mounting tubes 113. Adjacent mounting tubes 113 are connected to each other by the lower arched pieces 111, and adjacent mounting sleeves 114 are connected to each other by the upper inverted arched pieces 112. A deformable cavity is formed between the upper inverted arched pieces 112 and the lower arched pieces 111. A rib strip insertion groove 114a is provided in the mounting sleeve 114.
[0063] Two mounting rods 12 are symmetrically arranged, and the mounting supports 11 are symmetrically arranged on the mounting rods 12. The mounting tube 113 is fixed to the mounting rods 12.
[0064] Multiple support ribs 13, with both ends of the support ribs 13 inserted into the rib insertion grooves 114a of the corresponding mounting sleeves 114.
[0065] To better illustrate the rib support frame 1 of this utility model, the following specific application will be used as an example: The rib support frame 1 of this utility model connects the mounting pipe 113 and the mounting sleeve 114 through the lower arched piece 111 and the upper inverted arched piece 112. The resulting deformable cavity gives the mounting support 11 a certain elastic deformation capacity, which can buffer external pressure and improve the comfort of the support. The rib insertion groove 114a of the mounting sleeve 114 facilitates the quick installation and removal of the supporting rib 13. The paired mounting supports 11 and symmetrical mounting rods 12 ensure the stability of the support structure, making the supporting rib 13 evenly stressed. The overall structure is lightweight and has a strong load-bearing capacity, making it suitable for various scenarios requiring elastic support. Secondly, the complementary curve structure of the upper arched plate 112 and the lower arched plate 111 can better bear the load from above and below, improving the overall load-bearing capacity. Moreover, the lower arched plate 111 connects to the adjacent mounting tube 113, and the upper arched plate 112 connects to the adjacent mounting sleeve 114. The deformation cavity between the two is not independently separated, but forms an interconnected force-bearing unit. When the supporting rib strip 13 is under stress, the load is sequentially transferred to the mounting sleeve 114, the upper inverted arch plate 112, the mounting tube 113, and the lower arch plate 111. The double arch structure transmits the force to the mounting rods 12 on both sides through their respective curved paths, so that the force on a single arch plate is distributed by the overall structure, reducing the stress peak of a single component. Finally, the supporting rib strip 13 is connected to the mounting support 11 by plugging, making assembly and subsequent maintenance and replacement more convenient.
[0066] In some possible embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3As shown, the mounting tube 113 has a fixing hole 113a axially, and the mounting rod 12 has a plurality of positioning holes 121 that are adapted to the fixing hole 113a. The mounting tube 113 is fixed to the mounting rod 12 by using fasteners that pass through both the fixing hole 113a and the positioning holes 121. The advantage is that the mounting tube 113 and the mounting rod 12 are fixed by fasteners passing through the fixing hole 113a and the positioning holes 121, which not only makes the connection firm but also prevents the mounting support 11 from loosening and shifting during use.
[0067] In some possible embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 As shown, the outer contour of the supporting rib strip 13 is an arched structure with an arc. Its beneficial effect is that the arched structure of the supporting rib strip 13 gives it a certain degree of elasticity and toughness. When subjected to pressure, it can undergo moderate deformation, disperse the force, and improve the comfort of support. At the same time, the arched structure has a stronger bending resistance than the straight structure, which can reduce the overall weight and extend the service life while ensuring the support effect.
[0068] In some possible embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3 As shown, the rib support frame 1 also includes multiple adjustable ribs 14 and multiple clamps 15. The clamps 15 are used to fit the adjustable ribs and the supporting ribs 13 together. The advantage is that the adjustment ribs 14 and the supporting ribs 13, connected by the clamps 15, allow for changes in the overall support performance of the support frame. The clamps 15 facilitate the installation and position adjustment of the adjustable ribs 14, enabling the support frame to flexibly change its rigidity according to different usage needs, thus improving the product's applicability and personalized experience.
[0069] In some possible embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3 As shown, the adjustable rib strip 14 is located below the supporting rib strip 13. Its beneficial effect is that, since the adjustable rib strip 14 is located below the supporting rib strip 13, when the supporting rib strip 13 is subjected to pressure and deforms downward, it can contact the adjustable rib strip 14 below and share the force. This ensures the initial softness of the support and provides additional support when the pressure increases, avoiding excessive deformation. It achieves a gradual increase in support strength, taking into account both comfort and support.
[0070] In some possible embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3As shown, the outer contour of the adjusting rib 14 is also an arched structure with an arc. Its beneficial effect is that the arched structure of the adjusting rib 14 matches the arched structure of the supporting rib 13, forming a more closely fitting force-bearing surface when they come into contact, dispersing pressure and preventing damage caused by excessive local stress. At the same time, the elasticity of the arched structure itself makes the adjustment process smoother, improving the overall flexibility and stability of the support.
[0071] In some possible embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3 As shown, the pair of adjusting ribs 14 and supporting ribs 13 are fitted together by two sleeves 15. The gap between the supporting ribs 13 and adjusting ribs 14 is adjusted by regulating the distance between the two sleeves 15, thereby adjusting the overall stiffness. Specifically, when the distance between the two sleeves 15 is small: the gap between the two ribs within the constraint range of the sleeves 15 is smaller. When an external load is applied, the slight deformation of the supporting rib 13 can contact the adjusting rib 14, and the two quickly form a common load-bearing body, resulting in a stronger overall resistance to deformation and thus a stiffer support frame. When the distance between the two sleeves 15 is large: the gap in the middle area of the two ribs is larger. When an external load is applied, the supporting rib 13 needs to deform independently to a certain extent until the gap is eliminated before the adjusting rib 14 participates in bearing the load. Since only the supporting rib strip 13 deforms initially, the overall deformation is greater, resulting in a softer support frame. The advantage lies in the ability to precisely adjust the stiffness of the support frame by controlling the gap between the supporting rib strip 13 and the adjusting rib strip 14 through adjusting the distance between the two clamps 15. A smaller gap results in a firmer frame, suitable for scenarios requiring stronger support; a larger gap results in a softer frame, suitable for scenarios seeking comfort and relaxation. This adjustment method is simple to operate, requires no complex tools, and can meet the personalized needs of different users, greatly enhancing the product's practicality.
[0072] In some possible embodiments of this utility model, the rib support frame 1 further includes one or more reinforcing rods, the two ends of which are respectively fixed perpendicularly to the mounting rod 12. The beneficial effect is that the reinforcing rod is fixed perpendicularly to the mounting rod 12, forming a more stable frame structure, enhancing the deformation resistance of the entire support frame. Especially when subjected to greater pressure or external impact, it can effectively prevent the mounting rod 12 from bending or shifting, ensuring the stress stability of the supporting rib 13, extending the service life of the support frame, and is suitable for scenarios with high structural strength requirements.
[0073] In some possible embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3As shown, the mounting support 11 includes two mounting tubes 113 and two mounting sleeves 114. The mounting sleeves 114 are fixed to the mounting tubes 113. The two mounting tubes 113 are connected by a lower arched piece 111, and the two mounting sleeves 114 are connected by an upper inverted arched piece 112. The advantage lies in the simple design of the two mounting tubes 113 and the two mounting sleeves 114, which simplifies the manufacturing process of the mounting support 11 and reduces production costs while ensuring structural stability. The corresponding connection of the lower arched piece 111 and the upper inverted arched piece 112 makes the distribution of deformation cavities more reasonable, the elastic deformation effect more uniform, and improves the comfort and consistency of the support.
[0074] To solve the above problems, such as Figures 3 to 6 As shown, this utility model also provides an electric bed, including: a plurality of the above-mentioned rib support frames 1.
[0075] To better illustrate the electric bed of this invention, the following specific application will be used as an example: This invention applies the slat support frame 1 to an electric bed, utilizing its elastic support and adjustable characteristics to provide a more comfortable lying experience. The combined use of multiple support frames can adapt to the support needs of different parts of the electric bed, and in conjunction with the adjustable function of the electric bed, further enhances the comfort and functionality of the bed. It can be seen that the slat support frame 1 and the electric bed of this invention, through the deformable cavity formed by the double-arch structure and the mounting bracket 11 supporting plug-in assembly, achieve deformation buffering and quick assembly and disassembly, solving the problems of insufficient elastic buffering capacity and inconvenient assembly, maintenance, and replacement of the slat support structure in the prior art.
[0076] In some possible embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 4 as well as Figure 5 As shown, the electric bed also includes a bed frame 2 and a bed board assembly 3 mounted on the bed frame 2, with the rib support frame 1 mounted on the bed board assembly 3. The beneficial effect is that the rib support frame 1, mounted on the bed board assembly 3, forms a synergistic support with the bed frame 2. This utilizes the elastic cushioning characteristics of the support frame to improve lying comfort, while the stable structure of the bed frame 2 ensures the reliability of the overall support. This combined design allows the electric bed to have good support performance while providing a more comfortable feel, enhancing the user experience.
[0077] In some possible embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 4As shown, the electric bed also includes a front drive unit 4 located at the front of the bed frame 2 and a rear drive unit 5 located at the rear of the bed frame 2. The bed board assembly 3 includes a seat board 32 located on the bed frame 2, a back board 31 hinged to the front end of the seat board 32, and a leg board 33 hinged to the rear end of the seat board 32. The front drive unit 4 and the rear drive unit 5 are respectively connected to the back board 31 and the leg board 33, and can drive the back board 31 and the leg board 33 to rotate along the hinge end with the seat board 32. Its beneficial effect is that the front drive unit 4 and the rear drive unit 5 drive the back board 31 and the leg board 33 to rotate, realizing multi-angle adjustment of the electric bed. The rib support frame 1 can adapt to the support needs under different angles and maintain stable elastic support when the back board 31 and the leg board 33 rotate, ensuring that the user can obtain a comfortable support experience in various lying positions, thus improving the multifunctionality and practicality of the electric bed.
[0078] In some possible embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 6 As shown, the electric bed also includes a soft-padded structure 6, which covers the outer sides of the bed frame 2 and the bed board assembly 3. Its advantages lie in the fact that the soft-padded structure 6, covering the outer sides of the bed frame 2 and the bed board assembly 3, works in conjunction with the slatted support frame 1. The soft padded structure provides a soft touch, while the support frame provides stable elastic support; the combination of the two significantly improves the comfort of the electric bed. At the same time, the soft-padded structure 6 protects the internal components, reduces wear and tear, and also enhances the appearance and overall quality of the product.
[0079] As described above, the rib support frame 1 and the electric bed of this utility model have the following beneficial effects:
[0080] 1. Elastic buffer of double arch structure
[0081] The deformable cavity formed by the lower arched plate 111 and the upper inverted arched plate 112 gives the mounting support 11 elastic deformation capability, which can buffer external pressure and improve the comfort of the support. This complementary curved structure can better bear loads from above and below, enhancing the overall load-bearing capacity.
[0082] 2. Easy assembly and disassembly
[0083] The design of the rib insertion slot 114a of the mounting sleeve 114 makes the installation and disassembly of the support rib 13 quick and easy, and facilitates maintenance and replacement.
[0084] 3. Stable support structure
[0085] The paired mounting supports 11 and symmetrical mounting rods 12 ensure the stability of the support structure, make the supporting ribs 13 evenly stressed, and improve the overall stability and load-bearing capacity of the structure.
[0086] 4. The elasticity advantage of the arched support rib strip 13
[0087] The arched structure supporting the rib strip 13 is elastic and resilient, which can distribute the force, improve the comfort of support, reduce the overall weight, and extend the service life.
[0088] 5. Adjust the progressive support of the rib strip 14.
[0089] The adjustable rib strip 14 and the supporting rib strip 13 are fitted together by a clamp 15, allowing the stiffness of the support frame to be adjusted as needed. The adjustable rib strip 14 is positioned below the supporting rib strip 13, providing progressive support while balancing comfort and support.
[0090] 6. Precisely adjust the firmness / softness
[0091] By adjusting the distance between the two clamps 15, the gap between the support rib strip 13 and the adjustment rib strip 14 can be precisely controlled, thereby adjusting the firmness of the support frame to meet the personalized needs of different users.
[0092] 7. Structural reinforcement of the reinforcing rod
[0093] The reinforcing rod is vertically fixed to the mounting rod 12 to form a stable frame structure, which enhances the deformation resistance of the support frame and is suitable for scenarios with high structural strength requirements.
[0094] 8. Simple mounting bracket design
[0095] The mounting support 11 includes two mounting tubes 113 and two mounting sleeves 114. It has a simple design, simple manufacturing process, low cost, and uniform elastic deformation effect.
[0096] This utility model's rib support frame 1, through the deformable cavity formed by the double-arch structure and the convenient plug-in assembly method, achieves excellent elastic buffering performance and quick assembly and disassembly, effectively solving the problems of insufficient elasticity and inconvenient assembly and maintenance in existing rib support structures. Its stable support structure, adjustable mounting tube 113 position, and arched support rib 13 design further enhance the comfort and load-bearing capacity of the support. The coordinated use of adjustable rib 14 and clamp 15 allows the support frame to flexibly adjust its firmness according to different usage needs, enhancing the product's applicability and personalized experience. The addition of reinforcing rods further improves the structural strength and stability. When applied to an electric bed, the synergistic design of the rib support frame 1 with the bed frame 2 and bed board assembly 3 not only improves lying comfort but also enhances the multifunctionality and practicality of the electric bed, providing users with a superior user experience.
