Adjustable bed frame
View Patent ↗An adjustable bed frame assembly includes a center frame comprising two substantially parallel side frame members connected by two substantially parallel connector frame members, a forward connector frame member and a rear connector frame member, wherein the two connector frame members are located within approximately a center one-third of the length of the side frame members. The adjustable bed frame assembly also includes a base frame that includes a plurality of legs for mounting on a floor is rigidly affixed to the center frame such that the center frame does not move with respect to the base frame. The adjustable bed frame assembly further includes a head frame that comprises two substantially parallel side frame members connected by at least one connector frame member, wherein two lower ends of the head frame's parallel side frame members are pivotally attached to the forward connector frame member of the center frame; in addition, a downwardly facing extension frame member is attached to the head frame's connector frame. The adjustable bed frame assembly also includes an actuator for raising and lowering the head frame, wherein one end of the actuator is pivotally connected to the head frame's extension frame member and an opposing end of the actuator is connected to the center frame's rear connector frame member. The adjustable bed frame assembly also includes a mattress platform affixed to a top side of the head frame to provide support to a head portion of a mattress.
1. An adjustable bed frame assembly, comprising:
a center frame comprising two substantially parallel side frame members connected by two substantially parallel connector frame members, a forward connector frame member and a rear connector frame member, wherein the two connector frame members are located within approximately a center one-third of the length of the side frame members, the center frame being rigidly affixed to a base frame such that the center frame does not move with respect to the base frame, wherein the base frame includes a plurality of legs for mounting on a floor;
a head frame comprising two substantially parallel side frame members connected by at least one connector frame member, wherein two lower ends of the head frame's parallel side frame members are pivotally attached to the forward connector frame member of the center frame, and wherein a downwardly facing extension frame member is attached to the at least one connector frame member of the head frame;
an actuator for raising and lowering the head frame, wherein one end of the actuator is pivotally connected to the head frame's extension frame member and an opposing end of the actuator is connected to the rear connector frame member;
a mattress platform affixed to a top side of the head frame to provide support to a head portion of a mattress; and
a mattress retaining bracket secured in an upside-down orientation to a head section of the mattress platform, wherein
the mattress retaining bracket, when re-secured in a fight-side-up orientation to the head section of the mattress platform, stops the mattress platform from sliding during operation of the actuator.
2. An adjustable bed apparatus, comprising:
a center frame comprising two substantially parallel side frame members connected by two substantially parallel connector frame members, a forward connector frame member and a rear connector frame member, wherein the two connector frame members are located within approximately a center one-third of the length of the side frame members, the center frame being rigidly affixed to a base frame such that the center frame does not move with respect to the base frame, wherein the base frame includes a plurality of legs for mounting on a floor;
a head frame comprising two substantially parallel side frame members connected by at least one connector frame member, wherein two lower ends of the head frame's parallel side frame members are pivotally attached to the forward connector frame member of the center frame, and wherein a downwardly facing extension frame member is attached to the at least one connector frame member of the head frame's;
an actuator for raising and lowering the head frame, wherein one end of the actuator is pivotally connected to the head frame's extension frame member and an opposing end of the actuator is connected to the rear connector frame member;
a mattress platform affixed to a top side of the head frame to provide support to a head portion of a mattress; and
a mattress retaining bracket secured in an upside-down orientation to a head section of the mattress platform, wherein
the mattress retaining bracket, when re-secured in a fight-side-up orientation to the head section of the mattress platform, stops the mattress platform from sliding during operation of the actuator.
3. The adjustable bed apparatus of claim 2 , wherein the center frame members are made of a tubular construction.
4. The adjustable bed apparatus of claim 2 , wherein the head frame members are made of a tubular construction.
5. An adjustable bed frame assembly, comprising:
