  • Patent number: 6119289
    Abstract: A bed assembly which may be easily assembled and disassembled. The bed assembly includes corner posts, bed end structures and siderails. A positive restraining attachment cooperates with the siderails and the corner posts to prevent unintentional removal of the siderails, such as by the application of force beneath the siderails. Crossrails are supported by cleats connected to the siderails. The cleats define a horizontally extending surface upon which the crossrails contact and an angularly oriented surface portion. A bore is defined by the cleat and extends substantially perpendicular to the angularly oriented surface portion. A pin associated with the crossrails is positioned within the bore and cooperates with the angularly oriented surface portion to prevent unintentional dislocation of the crossrails.
