Abstract: Disclosed is a safety feature for wall beds which provides for jamming of the linkages of a counter-balancing mechanism if anchors for the mounting frame of the counter-balancing mechanism accidentally dislodge.

Abstract: A wall bed is disclosed employing a linkage assembly which moves the wall bed outwardly from the wall cavity in a fashion so that the head end of the bed will not be in the wall cavity and the level of the mattress will be at a height which approximately corresponds to the height of conventional beds. There is also provided a counter balancing spring assembly employing an angle member which connects extension springs to the bed base so that they are contained within a compact structure which is received within the wall cavity. A headboard is also provided which may be tilted rearwardly or positioned at a right angle to the sleeping surface.

Abstract: A wall bed is disclosed employing a linkage assembly which moves the wall bed outwardly from a wall or cabinet in a fashion so that the head end of the bed will not be in the cavity and the level of the mattress will be at a height which approximately corresponds to the height of conventional beds. Three counter-balancing spring assemblies are disclosed. One employs an angle member which connects extension springs to the bed base so that they are contained within a compact structure which is received within the cavity. The second employs a linkage assembly having short and long links pivotably connected to each other by their ends, with an extension spring connected to the short link and a mounting frame. The third employs a linkage assembly with extension springs that neutralize the counter-balancing force when the wall bed is open to eliminate floating. A headboard is also provided which may be tilted rearwardly or positioned at a right angle to the sleeping surface.

Abstract: Disclosed is a wall bed having a support with a collapsible side table mounted to the support. The side table is movable between a folded storage position enabling the table to be retracted into the wall with the support and an extended position with the table next to the bed.

Abstract: A folding sofa-bed or the like structure having a plurality of frame sections including a body section, pivotally interconnected in end-to-end relation for movement into an extended planar position to form a bed, and into a folded position to form a sofa-seat, and wherein the frame section and the body section in particular are provided with a flexible mattress supporting fabric having springs normally biasing the fabric and limiting it to a predetermined amount of sag under the weight of an occupant.

Abstract: A folding bed frame for sofa-beds in which a plurality of frame sections, including a foot section, knee section, body section and head section are pivoted in end-to-end relation so as to be foldable between an extended bed-forming position and a retracted sofa seat-forming position; wherein front and rear support and guiding link assemblies coact to control movements of the body section and head section during movements to the extended bed-forming position and to the retracted sofa seat-forming position. The link assemblies are supported by a pivoted front anchor link and a rear rocker lever anchor link, which are interconnected by a control link.

Abstract: A folding bed frame for sofa-beds in which a plurality of frame sections, including a foot section, knee section, body section and head section are pivoted in end-to-end relation so as to be foldable between an extended bed-forming position and a retracted sofa seat-forming position; wherein front and rear support and guiding link assemblies coact to control movements of the body section and head section during movements to the extended bed-forming position and to the retracted sofa seat-forming position. The link assemblies are supported by front and rear anchor links, the front anchor link being pivotally supported at its inner end at a front pivot point on an anchor frame plate and the rear anchor link being a rocker lever pivotally supported between its inner and outer ends at a rear pivot point on the anchor frame plate in substantially horizontal alignment with the front pivot point.

Abstract: A bed frame of the type having a pair of side rails interconnected by one or more crossbars to provide a support for a box spring, and in which adjustable box spring locating and retaining clips are provided on the side rails to permit the sides of the box spring to extend beyond the side rails, and to hold the box spring against shifting movements in relation to the supporting bed frame.

Abstract: A bedframe having side rails interconnected by end crossbars which are adjustable to provide a plurality of different standard bed widths, each of the crossbars being formed by at least two telescoped sections which are interconnected to provide a unitary crossbar assembly in which the component parts are mechanically retained against disassembly, and wherein the sections are arranged to be latched in selective bed width positions by means of a latch member movably supported on the outermost of the telescoped sections for movement between a raised non-latching position in which a projection on the latch member is freely movable along an adjacent side channel formed in the other of the telescoped members, and a latching position in which the projection is moved into one of a plurality of spaced apart slots in communication with the side channel.

Abstract: A bed frame of the knockdown type having a pair of side rails and at least one connected end crossbar cooperable to provide a supporting frame structure for an associated box spring, in which brackets on the side rails are formed to provide sockets for respectively laterally receiving associated end portions of a crossbar therein into seated position where coacting parts respectively on the brackets and crossbar have interlocking engagement and function to retain the end portion of the crossbar against endwise withdrawal from the associated socket.The crossbar and side rail connection, as noted above, provides an extremely rigid box-like structure which permits frame-supporting leg assemblies to be mounted on the crossbar at a sufficiently inwardly spaced position from the side rail to avoid possible injurious striking of the bare foot or stubbing of toes thereon.
