Description

1 TARIFF A foldable and portable base mechanism. TECHNICAL FIELD This invention relates to under-bed storage systems, particularly foldable and portable ones. It relates to a base mechanism that can be adapted to a certain state. The invention concerns transportation, assembly and storage. 10 that simplifies the processes, can be assembled without the use of screws, and is snap-on. It involves creating a base structure supported by connecting elements. STATE OF THE ART Bed bases, commonly used in the furniture industry today, are generally fixed and It has a monolithic body structure. These types of bases are manufactured as a single piece after production. Because it is shipped, it takes up a large volume during transport, in containers or vehicles. This significantly reduces the transport capacity within the fleet, especially for exporters. For manufacturers, this situation leads to significant increases in logistics costs. 20 Furthermore, the screws and fasteners used in current systems increase both assembly time. This both prolongs the process and makes it more difficult for users to install the products themselves. Incorrect assembly can compromise the structural integrity of the product, which... This can lead to strength and safety issues. In some cases, screw 25 creaking, imbalance, or deformation resulting from the loosening of their parts over time Undesirable side effects occur. Most bed bases on the market are single-door systems. This design is especially suitable for double beds. Because the covers on the beds have to be opened from only one direction, usage 30 This reduces the ease of use. Also, in single-valve systems, the number of pistons and scissors... The limited nature of the force negatively affects the force distribution in large surface area covers. Over time, this can lead to mechanical failures. Most existing bed bases are not demountable. Frame 35 Because the components are joined with fixed connections, the product can be transported folded or 2 It is not possible to store it. This situation makes installation or storage especially difficult in confined spaces. This creates difficulties in handling the product during transport, increasing the risk of damage. It increases. Additionally, tension rods and intermediate supports used for fastening purposes are included in existing systems. Although the profiles provide strength to the structure, they are based on the principle of fixed connections, therefore 5 This eliminates the portability feature. Therefore, the user can disassemble the base. When he wants to remove it, he has to both unscrew the screw connections and reassemble the entire structure. It needs to be established. This is important in terms of both time and manpower. This creates a disadvantage. For all these reasons, it saves space in transportation and is easy for the user to use. mountable, screwless, snap-on, foldable and There has been a growing need for a new, portable bed base mechanism. TECHNICAL PROBLEMS ELIMINATED BY THE INVENTION The most significant technical problem observed in existing bases is that the frame structure is monolithic and fixed. Due to this, high safety standards are required during the transportation, storage, and installation of the product. This requires volume, labor, and cost. This situation is particularly important for exporting companies. From a logistics perspective, it reduces the number of products that can be transported per container. It increases costs. The invention solved this technical problem with its hinged and foldable body structure. The body profiles are folded into box 25 using special hinges and connecting elements. It can be transformed into this form, thus making the product suitable for shipment in the smallest possible volume. It is coming. Another technical problem is the screws and fixed fasteners used in current bases. The systems are difficult to assemble and not suitable for user intervention. 30 In addition, these screw systems can loosen over time, leading to vibrations, squeaking, and structural deformations. This is the reason. The invention solves this problem by using a snap-fit ​​fastening system. This eliminates the need for any screws or nails in the installation of the bed base thanks to this system. It can be completed quickly without requiring any further assistance, and similarly, it can be easily disassembled. It can be re-established. 35 3 Another known problem is the central tension rods and intermediate support profiles in existing bases. The product cannot be disassembled because it is fixed in place. This situation... This restricts the portability and storability of the base. The portable base used in the invention... Tension bars and removable intermediate support profiles make it possible to disassemble and fold the product. It increases portability while maintaining structural strength. 5 Furthermore, because current double bed frames usually only have one door, usage is limited. Its ergonomics are poor. The invention consists of a double-lid, four-piston system, each piston operating independently. This system eliminates this problem. This structure allows the lids to be opened individually. It provides flexibility in use by allowing for various possibilities. 10 Finally, some bases on the market use low-thickness metal profiles, which can affect the product. This causes it to bend or deform over time. The 1 mm used in the invention Special metal profiles of a certain thickness offer both lightness and strength. This ensures the product is long-lasting and safe. 15 In these respects, the invention is different from what is encountered in existing bases;  assembly difficulty,  logistical inefficiencies,  difficulty in transportation and storage, 20  lack of resistance,  Insufficient ergonomic use By eliminating technical problems such as these, a new structural principle is introduced. It places. THE PURPOSE OF THE INVENTION The primary purpose of this invention is to eliminate the transportation, assembly, and storage issues encountered in existing systems. By eliminating the difficulties, a bed base that can be folded and made portable 30 The goal is to develop a mechanism. One aim of the invention is to connect all body elements of the base using a snap-on connection principle. Thanks to its design, no screws, nails or fasteners are needed during assembly. The goal is to make installation possible without requiring any additional tools. This allows users to install the product without any additional tools. You can easily assemble or disassemble the product without needing professional help. 35 It can lift it. 4 Another purpose is that, thanks to its hinged and foldable frame structure, the base can be used even in the smallest size. The aim is to make it portable in terms of volume. Thus, the product can be disassembled. Afterwards, all the body parts are folded so that they fit inside a box, and Significant savings are achieved in logistics costs. Another purpose of the invention is to create portable and snap-on tension rods and central support profiles. The purpose is to ensure that it can be easily assembled and disassembled later on. This structure, the base... while maintaining its strength, it also offers flexible, demountable assembly options. It offers. Furthermore, the invention allows both doors on double bed frames to operate independently. It is equipped with a four-piston and four-scissor system that provides this. Thus, the user can achieve a single 10 By opening one side, you can access the item under the bed; the other side is fixed. This feature not only increases ease of use but also ensures the lids remain in place. It also increases durability by balancing the force distribution of the pistons. The 1 mm thick special metal profiles used in the invention offer both lightness and... It also offers high strength. This feature increases the product's portability, while 15 It prevents deformation from occurring under the weight applied to it. In conclusion, this invention,  Can be assembled without the use of screws,  Foldable with hinged system,  portable, 20  It has an independent lid system,  lightweight and durable by creating a base mechanism, all the disadvantages of existing systems to eliminate; assembly, storage, transportation and It provides ease of use. 25 BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE IMAGES Figure 1: The subject of the invention is a foldable and portable bed base.
