Abstract: A bed base includes four side members oriented to stand upright on their lower edges. The side members are connected to form a rectangular support structure by corner connectors. Each corner connector comprises a top plate, a bottom plate, and a post. The plates overlap the upper and lower edges of the adjacent side members forming an individual corner. The post extends between the top plate and the bottom plate, pulling these plates towards each other to press the top and bottom plates firmly against the edges of the adjacent side members forming the corner.

Abstract: A boxspring of a predetermined width is supported on bed frame including a pair of side rails attached together by at least one pair of cross bars. Each cross bar has two segments with outer ends that overlap. The outer end of one of the two segments has an inwardly extending locking element formed in this outer end, and the outer end of the other segment has a receptacle therein. With the two segments of each pair of cross bars in a overlapping and abutting relationship, the locking elements are positioned at a predetermined location to be received in their corresponding receptacles in the outer end of the opposed other segment so that the distance between the attached side rails is substantially equal to the width of the box spring. One outer end of one cross bar segment having at least one connector member extending therefrom and the other outer end to which said one segment is connected having a slot therein that receives the connector member of said one segment when the segments are connected together.

Abstract: An interlocking joint assembly for joining a first frame member and a second frame member of a bed frame and for adjusting the width of the bed frame. The assembly includes at least one projection on the first frame member and at least one keyhole slot defined by the second frame member and adapted to receive the projection. The assembly includes a locking member provided on the second frame member which is pivotable between a locking position and a release position. The locking member has a horizontally extending ear which, in the locking position, overlies a horizontal flange of the second frame member and is engaged by a box spring placed on the assembled bed frame.
