Foldable bed frame
View Patent ↗A foldable bed frame comprising two symmetrically arranged unit bed frames is provided. The two unit bed frames are hinged to each other at their connection. A unit bed frame is further provided with a first plurality of support legs in hinge connection with the unit bed frame. The direction in which the plurality of first support legs fold is perpendicular to the direction in which the unit bed frame folds. Both the folding and unfolding of the foldable bed frame are very simple and convenient, and the volume after folding is small, which facilitates storage and transport.
1. A foldable bed frame comprising:
a pair of unit bed frames arranged symmetrically with respect to each other and pivotally connected to each other such that each unit bed frame is foldable in a first direction, wherein each unit bed frame comprises:
a generally U-shaped exterior frame comprising a first longitudinal bar, a second longitudinal bar, and an exterior lateral bar in between the first and second longitudinal bars and connected with or formed with the first and second longitudinal bars; and
an interior lateral bar spaced apart from the exterior lateral bar, and having a first end coupled with the first longitudinal bar and a second end coupled with the second longitudinal bar; and
a plurality of first support legs, each comprising a first support bar and a second support bar, wherein of each respective first support leg in the plurality of first support legs,
an upper end of the first support bar is pivotally connected with the exterior lateral bar of a corresponding unit bed frame at a side facing the interior lateral bar of the corresponding unit bed frame; and
an upper end of the second support bar is pivotally connected with the interior lateral bar of the corresponding unit bed frame at a side facing the exterior lateral bar of the corresponding unit bed frame;
wherein the respective first support leg is foldable in a second direction that is different from the first direction in which the pair of unit bed frames folds, and when folded, the first support bar and the second support bar are contained within a space defined by the exterior lateral bar and the interior lateral bar of the corresponding unit bed frame.
2. The foldable bed frame according to claim 1 , wherein the second direction is orthogonal to the first direction.
3. The foldable bed frame according to claim 1 , wherein each respective unit bed frame in the pair of unit bed frames comprises:
a first bed frame body; and
a second bed frame body, wherein
the pair of unit bed frames are pivotally connected to each other through the second frame bodies thereof, and
the first bed frame body and the second bed frame body of each respective unit bed frame are pivotally connected to each other, and foldable in the first direction.
4. The foldable bed frame according to claim 3 , wherein, when each respective first support leg is folded,
the first support bar and the second support bar are contained within a space defined by a top surface and a bottom surface of the first bed frame body of the corresponding unit bed frame.
5. The foldable bed frame accordingly to claim 3 , wherein of each respective unit bed frame in the pair of unit bed frames, the first bed frame body comprises the first longitudinal bar, the second longitudinal bar, the exterior lateral bar, and the interior lateral bar.
6. The foldable bed frame according to claim 1 , wherein each respective first support leg in the plurality of first support legs further comprises:
a connection bar between the first support bar and the second support bar, wherein the connection bar is connected or formed with the first support bar and the second support bar.
7. The foldable bed frame accordingly to claim 6 , wherein of each respective first support leg, the connection bar, the first support bar and the second support bar collectively form a general U-shape.
8. The foldable bed frame accordingly to claim 6 , wherein when each respective first support leg is folded, the first support bar, the second support bar and the connection bar are contained within a space defined by the exterior lateral bar and the interior lateral bar of the corresponding unit bed frame.
9. The foldable bed frame accordingly to claim 1 , wherein each respective first support leg in the plurality of first support legs further comprises:
a first connecting piece connected with the exterior lateral bar of the corresponding unit bed frame at the side facing the interior lateral bar of the corresponding unit bed frame, wherein the upper end of the first support bar is pivotally connected with the exterior lateral bar by pivotally connecting to the first connecting piece; and
a second connecting piece connected with the interior lateral bar of the corresponding unit bed frame at the side facing the exterior lateral bar of the corresponding unit bed frame, wherein the upper end of the second support bar is pivotally connected with the interior lateral bar by pivotally connecting to the second connecting piece.
10. The foldable bed frame according to claim 9 , wherein
the first or second support bar is provided with a first boss,
a first support piece or a second support piece is provided with a slide groove, and
the first boss is configured to be snapped into the slide groove and slide along the slide groove.
11. The foldable bed frame according to claim 9 , wherein
a first support piece or a second support piece is provided with a boss,
the first or second support bar is provided with a slide groove, and
the boss is configured to be snapped into the slide groove and slide along the slide groove.
12. The foldable bed frame accordingly to claim 9 , wherein each respective first support leg in the plurality of first support legs further comprises:
a first support piece having a first end connected to the first connection piece at the exterior lateral bar, and a second end connected to the first support bar; and
a second support piece having a first end connected to the second connection piece at the interior lateral bar, and a second connected to the second support bar.
13. The foldable bed frame accordingly to claim 1 , wherein each respective first support leg in the plurality of first support legs further comprises:
a first support piece having a first end connected to the exterior lateral bar, and a second end connected to the first support bar; and
a second support piece having a first end connected to the interior lateral bar, and a second connected to the second support bar.
