  • Folding bed base apparatus and related method of use
    Patent number: 10638850
    Abstract: A folding bed base apparatus may include a central frame assembly, a head section, and a foot section. The head section and foot section may be pivotally attached to the central frame assembly such that the folding bed base apparatus may fold to a folded configuration and unfold to an unfolded configuration. The central frame assembly may include a first U-shaped foot rest and a second U-shaped foot rest. The U-shaped foot rests may allow the folding bed base apparatus to stand upright when in the folded configuration. The head section may include a first pivot bar and pivot bar stops which frictionally-obstruct the head section from unfolding past the unfolded configuration. The foot section may include a second pivot bar and pivot bar stops which frictionally-obstruct the foot section from unfolding past the unfolded configuration. Methods for unfolding a folded folding bed base apparatus are disclosed.
