Description

[0001] The invention relates to a kit for assembling a bed frame with a detachably attached support-decorative part, which in the intended assembly position forms a support-decorative wall erected at right angles to the support surface of the bed frame and projecting from the bed frame at the head end.

[0002] In the prior art, such kits are known in which a bed frame is equipped with a decorative support panel, which is attached, for example, to the headboard and, if necessary, also to the footboard of the bed frame. The support panel is attached by screwing it to frame components of the bed frame. In its intended assembly position, the bed frame has a support surface, for example, for a slatted base or a mattress, which is oriented parallel to the bed frame's installation plane, with the decorative support panel mounted perpendicular to this support surface. Depending on its design and attachment to the bed frame, the support panel can, in addition to its decorative function and support function for people leaning against it, also serve as a support leg for the bed frame, eliminating the need for additional legs underneath.

[0003] The decorative support wall consists of a wooden panel, for example, a chipboard panel, covered with padding and a fabric stretched over the padding. The fabric is attached to the chipboard panel with staples in an area that is preferably not visible after installation. The frame components are also usually covered with a similar fabric, which is attached to the frame components with staples. Subsequent removal of the fabric, for example for cleaning purposes, is not possible without damaging it.

[0004] To further enhance the visual appearance of the front of the decorative support wall, recesses can be incorporated. The front of the decorative support wall is the visible side facing the support surface. The back is typically the side facing a wall.

[0005] The components of a kit are fitted with the upholstery and cover before being stored and then kept in a warehouse until shipment to the customer. This has the disadvantage that a large number of kits of different colors and shapes must be stored in order to respond to customer requests as quickly as possible, resulting in correspondingly high storage costs. Transporting a kit is also complex and expensive, as the support and decorative wall panels, in particular, are very large and therefore quite heavy.

[0006] The object of the invention is to provide a universal kit, in particular a support-decorative wall, in which transport and storage costs can be reduced.

[0007] To solve the problem, the invention proposes that The support decorative wall is detachably attached / attachable to an end area of ​​the bed frame, wherein the support decorative wall is multi-part and consists of two pivotably connected auxiliary frames which, in a transport position, are pivoted towards each other and arranged one above the other, and which, in an assembly position, are pivoted open and arranged side by side in a common plane and form a frame of the support decorative wall, wherein each auxiliary frame consists of a dimensionally stable, preferably rectangular frame part, to whose outer edge sections first slat parts are attached, which, in the transport position, are adjusted towards a frame part plane spanned by the respective frame part, and which, in the assembly position, are erected and project perpendicularly from the common plane of the frame parts, wherein the first slat parts are connected by second slat parts in the assembly position.the first strip sections together with the second strip sections in their intended mounting position form an outer, circumferential tensioning strip of the support / decorative wall.

[0008] The kit is designed so that the support / decorative wall can be detachably attached to a bed frame, thus allowing for its replacement. In particular, components of this type of kit are universally interchangeable, ensuring a sustainable system.

[0009] For transport and storage purposes, the support and decorative wall is folded, reducing its volume in the transport position by at least half compared to the installed position. This is achieved by folding the support and decorative wall in half for transport and storage, and by folding over or inwards the first set of slats that form the outer tensioning strip. This results in a significant reduction in transport and storage costs.

[0010] Preferably, the second strip parts include corner connectors with which two first strip parts arranged at an angle are connected, so that a stable corner connection is ensured.

[0011] It is preferably intended that the corner connectors have rounded corners, which serves to visually redesign the support-decor wall.

[0012] Furthermore, it is preferably provided that the second strip parts comprise straight connecting pieces with which two adjacent first strip parts are connected.

[0013] The connecting pieces provide a stable, continuous tensioning strip. Furthermore, they prevent the first strip sections from folding in unintentionally and the subframes from pivoting.

[0014] It is preferably provided that the second strip sections are detachably attached to the first strip sections, so that the connecting strip sections are initially separated from the first strip sections for transport purposes and the first strip sections can be pivoted. Only when the final assembly position is set are the second strip sections (connecting pieces) inserted between two first strip sections and connected to them, so that the first strip sections can no longer be adjusted and a stable, continuous clamping strip is formed.

[0015] It is particularly preferred that the second strip parts be made of plastic, since such connecting pieces are sufficiently stable and at the same time inexpensive to manufacture.

[0016] Preferably, each frame part is reinforced by a planar, grid-like structure.

[0017] This structure is designed to reinforce the subframes. Furthermore, the grid structure serves as a base for attaching padding and a cover to the supporting decorative wall.

[0018] It is preferably intended that the frame parts, the first slat parts and the grid-like structure are made of metal, so that a stable yet lightweight support decorative wall can be provided.

[0019] It is also preferably provided that the support-decorative wall in the intended mounting position has a covering that covers the frame parts and preferably the grid-like structure, wherein the circumferential tensioning strip is covered and encompassed by edges of the covering and the free end areas of the edges have clamping elements with which the covering is detachably attached to components of the tensioning strip.

[0020] Such a cover can be easily replaced at any time for cleaning purposes or in case of damage. Furthermore, any cover can be stretched over the frame structure of the support-decor wall, resulting in significant storage savings, since instead of having to keep a large number of support-decor walls, e.g., covered in fabric, on hand, only a large number of covers need to be stored in a space-saving manner.

[0021] It is preferably provided that each auxiliary frame has at least two adjacent first transverse and / or longitudinal struts, between which a clamping gap is formed, wherein the reference in the area of ​​the clamping gap has a clamping strip which is inserted into the clamping gap in the intended position.

[0022] The transverse and / or longitudinal struts further stiffen the auxiliary frame and make it easy to create an inset at the front of the support decorative wall by simply inserting the cover into the gap with a clamping strip and holding it in place.

[0023] Preferably, the first strip parts have perforations in which electrical components are attached or through which electrical components are passed.

[0024] For example, USB sockets can be attached in the holes, or cables for lighting can be routed through the holes.

[0025] Furthermore, it is preferably provided that the kit includes at least two adapter plates with pins with which the support decorative wall is detachably attached to the bed frame, wherein the adapter plates are attached to components of the auxiliary frames, preferably to second transverse and / or longitudinal struts of the auxiliary frames, and the pins are inserted into components, preferably sleeves, of the bed frame and detachably fixed therein.

[0026] The adapter plates can be screwed to the cross and / or longitudinal struts, for example, and are detachably fixed in a bracket of the bed frame by means of a pin. The adapter plates and pins are preferably made of metal to ensure sufficient stability.

[0027] It is preferably provided that the adapter plates are detachably attached to the second transverse and / or longitudinal struts by means of connecting means, wherein the second transverse and / or longitudinal struts have at least two, preferably three or four holes for fastening and variable positioning of the adapter plates.

[0028] For example, the support decorative wall can be attached to the bed frame by selecting appropriate available perforations in such a way that it simultaneously serves as a support leg for setting up the bed frame on the floor.

[0029] It is particularly preferred that the first strip parts have cutouts which, in transport position, encompass the first and / or second transverse and / or longitudinal struts.

[0030] This makes it possible to arrange the first strip sections in the transport position in a space-saving manner in the frame section plane.

[0031] An embodiment of a support-decorative wall according to the invention is described below and explained in more detail with reference to the figures. It shows:

[0032] Fig. 1 a support-decorative wall in a transport position; Fig. 2 a section of the support-decorative wall; Fig. 3 the support-decorative wall in a mounting position in front view; Fig. 4 the support-decorative wall in the mounting position in rear view.

[0033] The figures show a support / decorative wall 1 that can be detachably attached to one end of a bed frame. For transport and storage purposes, components of the support / decorative wall 1 can be folded, reducing the overall volume of the resulting frame package by at least half compared to its assembled state. The frame structure of the support / decorative wall 1 is folded in half, and attachments, such as the first slat sections 4, are folded towards the frame structure of the support / decorative wall 1. This results in a significant reduction in transport and storage volume and, consequently, in transport and storage costs.

[0034] More precisely, the support-decorative wall 1 is multi-part and consists of two auxiliary frames 2, 3 connected to each other, for example by hinges 14, which are pivoted towards each other in a transport position and arranged close together. This transport position is in Fig. 1 shown.

[0035] In an assembly position that is in Fig. 3 and 4 As shown, the auxiliary frames 2,3 are swung open and arranged side by side in a common plane, forming a frame for the support-decor wall 1.

[0036] Each auxiliary frame 2,3 consists of a dimensionally stable, rectangular frame section, to whose outer edges first strip sections 4 are attached. The outer edges are understood to be those edges which, in the intended assembly position, form the outer perimeter of the support-decorative wall 1, such that the first strip sections 4 are arranged on three sides of each auxiliary frame 2,3.

[0037] As in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 As shown, the first slat sections 4 are adjusted in the transport position towards a frame section plane spanned by the respective frame section. To enable this adjustment, the first slat sections 4 are pivotally attached to the auxiliary frames 2, 3 by hinges 15.

[0038] In the Fig. 3 and 4In the assembly position shown, the first slat sections 4 are erected and project at right angles from the common plane formed by the two auxiliary frames 2, 3. In the assembly position, the first slat sections 4 are connected to each other by second slat sections 5, 6 in the corner areas and in the pivot area, so that the first slat sections 4 and the second slat sections 5, 6 form an outer, circumferential tensioning strip. Corner connectors 5 are provided for connecting the first slat sections 4, with each of these connecting pieces linking two first slat sections 4 arranged at a right angle, thus ensuring a stable corner connection. The first slat sections 4 located adjacent to the pivot area are connected by straight slat sections 6. The connecting pieces 5, 6 ensure a stable connection between the first slat sections 4. Furthermore, they prevent the first slat sections from folding inwards and the frame parts from pivoting.The connecting pieces 5,6 are made of plastic.

[0039] To enable the connecting pieces 5 and 6 to be detachably connected to the first strip sections 4, the first strip sections 4 and the connecting pieces 5 and 6 feature a dovetail joint. The strip sections 5, which serve as corner connectors, have rounded corners, although other designs are also possible.

[0040] The second strip sections 5, 6 are detachably attached to the first strip sections 4, so that the connecting pieces 5, 6 can initially be separated from the first strip sections 4 for transport purposes, and the first strip sections 4 can be pivoted. Only when the final assembly position is set are the second strip sections 5, 6 (connecting pieces) inserted between two first strip sections 4 and connected to them, so that the first strip sections 4 can no longer be adjusted and a stable, continuous clamping strip is formed.

[0041] The frame components are each reinforced by a grid-like structure 7. This structure 7 serves to reinforce the subframes 2, 3. Furthermore, it is possible to apply padding to the grid structure 7, which, along with the frame and slat components, is covered with a fabric.

[0042] The frame parts, as well as the first strip parts 4 and the grid-like structure 7 are made of metal, so that a stable and lightweight support decorative wall 1 can be provided.

[0043] The support-decor wall 1 can be covered with a fabric covering the frame components and the grid-like structure 7 in its installed position. The surrounding tensioning strip is covered and enclosed by the edges of the fabric, and the free end areas of the edges have clamping elements with which the fabric is detachably attached to components of the tensioning strip. The fabric is attached to the back of the support-decor wall 1 and can be removed at any time, allowing it to be easily removed for cleaning or in case of damage. Furthermore, any fabric covering can be stretched over the frame structure of the support-decor wall 1, resulting in significant storage savings. Instead of having to keep numerous fabric-covered support-decor walls 1 on hand, only a number of covers need to be stored, which can be stored in a space-saving manner.

[0044] The figures show that the auxiliary frames 2, 3 have two adjacent first longitudinal struts 8, 9, between which a clamping gap is formed. The cover, which is stretched over the frame structure, can have a clamping strip in the area of ​​the clamping gap, which is inserted into the clamping gap in the designated position, thus forming a recess. In this way, recesses can be created particularly quickly and easily, and such recesses can also be released when removing the cover without damaging it.

[0045] Some of the first strip sections 4 have perforations 10 in which electrical components such as USB sockets can be attached or through which electrical components such as cables can be routed. Alternatively, brackets for decorative or design elements or fasteners for such brackets can be inserted into the perforations and mounted on the strip sections 4.

[0046] The support decorative wall 1 is preferably attached to a bed frame using two adapter plates, each with a pin that allows the adapter plate to be inserted into a sleeve in the bed frame. The adapter plates are not shown in the figures. These are attached, preferably screwed, to second longitudinal and transverse struts 11, 12 of the auxiliary frames 2, 3. The second transverse and longitudinal struts 11, 12 have multiple holes, allowing for variable positioning of the adapter plates, for example, to adjust the height of the support decorative wall 1. Thus, the support decorative wall 1 can be attached to the bed frame in such a way that it simultaneously serves as a support leg for the bed frame.

[0047] The first strip parts 4 have cutouts 13 in the areas of the first longitudinal strut and the second transverse and longitudinal struts 8,9,11,12, which in the transport position encompass the first and second transverse and / or longitudinal struts 8,9,11,12, so that the first strip parts 4 are optimally arranged in the frame part plane.

[0048] The invention is not limited to the exemplary embodiments, but is variable in many ways within the scope of the disclosure.

[0049] All individual and combination features disclosed in the description and / or drawing are considered essential to the invention.
