Abstract: A cross bar system for supporting a bed having a pair of bed rails is disclosed in which the cross bar system comprises a cross bar member, a bracket member for attachment to one of the bed rails with the bracket member for receiving the cross bar member, and a leg member for attachment to the cross bar member for supporting the cross bar member.

Abstract: A bed frame or other structural construction having a locking mechanism to allow two structural members to be affixed and locked together. A first structural member sits atop of the second structural member and has a pair of posts that interfit into a pair of holes formed in the second structural member. The locking mechanism is located at an end of the first structural member and includes a slide that is movable along the longitudinal axis of the first structural member to slide between a retracted, unlocked position and an extended, locked position where the slide contacts the lower surface of the second structural member to sandwich the second structural member between the first structural member and the slide to block the structural members from moving with respect to each to withdraw the posts from the holes, thereby locking the first and second structural members together.

Abstract: A bunk (10) in a cab of a truck comprises a profile and a bottom. The profile is substantially L-shaped and has a base member (12) for supporting the bottom. The base member (12) has tongues (23) with punctured holes (24), which are arranged in parallel along the base member (12) and are spaced apart by equal intervals. The bottom can be a net (11) that is arranged over the tongues (23) before bending them over the base member (12). The bottom can alternatively be a board (40) or be a set of transversal ribs (50) or a set of extruded rubber rods (60) that is arranged over the tongues (23) and are fastened to the base member (12) by fastening means (41, 52, 62) through the holes (24).

Abstract: A cross-rail support system for use with a bed frame to support a mattress having at least two adjustable support leg assemblies attached to two parallel and adjacent elongate beams. The overall width of the support system is adjustable by sliding the elongate beams relative to each other along their lengths. The placement of the two support leg assemblies is also adjustable by sliding the assemblies along the elongate beams and is independent from the total width of the support system. In addition, the leg assemblies maintain the parallel alignment of the elongate beams to each other and provide support to the mattress.

Abstract: A cross member that can be used with a bed frame or bed rails to provide support for a box spring and mattress. The cross member is attachable to the side rail of the bed by a snap-in system where the ends of the cross member are comprised of slide ends that interfit into receptacles located along the side rails. A leg is used to support a bed frame member that is self adjusting by a mechanism that can be unlocked by a person to drop the leg downwardly by gravity to contact the floor and is then lockable in that extended length.

Abstract: An adjustable locking mechanism incorporated in a bracket embracing laterially slidable first and second members, said mechanism being incorporated in the bracket and having a first element engaged with the bracket and a second element engaged with the first element and movable through both the first element and the bracket into engagement with the first member to force the first member into engagement with the second member to hold said first and second members in fixed lateral relationship to each other.

Abstract: A universal cross member that can be used with a bed frame or bed rails to provide support for a box spring and mattress. The universal cross member has a straight bar with telescoping ends so that the universal cross member can be used even where there are variances in the distance between the side rails and still be fitted to those side rails. A tensioning system is provided to add strength to the universal cross member to eliminate, in almost all instances, the need for some further support of the universal cross member from the floor, such as a caster or a glide. In the system, a tensioning bar has its ends affixed at or near the ends of the straight member and its center contacts a block at a finite distance from the straight member at or about the center of the straight member. By placing the tension bar in a predetermined tension, a force is created that acts through the block against the approximate center of the straight member.

Abstract: A leg set for a bed is provided by lengths of tubular material having ends at right angles to the centerline of the tube. The upper end of the tube length is notched so the vertically oriented supports for the bed can be slipped into the notches. The notches are deep enough, and the diameter of the tube is sufficient, to provide lateral stability. The vertically oriented supports may be the structural members of the box for a soft sided waterbed, may be supports for the deck of a full flotation waterbed, or may be a support for any other form of mattress.

Abstract: A leg for a cross bar for king and queen size beds which leg is nested in the cross bar for shipping and movable to an erect position to support the cross bar above the floor. The leg has an integral bracket on its free end which is formed from the leg and defines a substantially square opening which retains a plastic bushing and a threaded foot which can be adjusted toward and away from the leg bracket to raise or lower the cross bar.

Abstract: A universal cross bar adjustable in length and height to accommodate queen and king size bedding at heights of eight to eighteen inches from the floor with legs which are pivoted into nesting relation with the cross bar for ease in packaging and shipping, and extensions attachable to the cross bar to increase its length and to the legs to raise the height of the cross bar. A plastic bushing having a threaded throughbore is positioned in an opening formed in the bottom of the leg by a "W" shaped bracket riveted to the leg and a foot having a threaded stem which fits in the throughbore is used to further adjust the height of the cross bar.

Abstract: A universal sleep system support which is readily collapsible for storage and transportation, and is easily assembled into a construction which can support any type and common size of sleep system. This universal sleep system support comprises a plurality of modules which when assembled are selectively locked together into a unitary construction. The modules each include readily assembled corner pieces and channel units. The corner pieces respectively have a planar surface and a leg structure extending substantially perpendicularly therefrom; and the channel units respectively have mating members slideably associated with one another for adjusting the length of the channel units. The channel units are selectively received by the corner pieces and adjusted to a preselected length to set the distance between such corner pieces. The assembled modules are selectively locked together into the unitary construction so that the channel units can support any type of sleep system of any common size.

Abstract: A pair of longitudinally extending bed rails having a center cross bar interconnecting the rails with a depending supporting leg adjacent each end of the cross bar for providing support adjacent the center of the bed rails. The bed rails include a vertical flange and a horizontal flange with the horizontal flange extending under and forming a support for a substantial length of the bedding assembly, such as the box spring, with the cross bar pulling the rails inwardly into contact with the sides of the box spring. The cross rails are provided with a tongue and slot connection with the horizontal flanges of the side rails to enable assembly and disassembly of the cross bar in relation to the side rails.
