Abstract
A foldable bed (50) comprising: a foldable frame (505) along at least one axis comprising a foldable rod (510), at least two legs (515), each leg being attached to the frame by a connection (520), said connection allowing for the positioning of said leg according to an unfolded position and a folded position and the foldable rod being associated with each connection on either side of the folding axis, in which: each connection comprises an orifice (525) passing through said connection and each leg has an attachment (530) to a flexible wire (535) connecting two legs and passing through the folding axis of the frame, the wire being tensioned when the rod is unfolded, the tension of the wire causing the positioning of the legs in the unfolded position.
Claims20
Foldable bed comprising:
- a foldable frame having at least one foldable rod including a joint foldable along at least one folding axis between a folded position and an unfolded position;
- at least two legs, each leg having an end being engageable to a connection member, attached to the rod, for coupling the leg to the rod , said connection member having an orifice passing therethrough, said connection member is disposed on either side of the folding axis and is configured to selectively engage said end of said leg in said unfolded position, each leg further includes an attachment member positioned inside said leg;
- a flexible wire extending between the two legs and being directly attached to the attachments inside said two legs, said flexible wire passes through the folding axis of the rod and through the orifice of each connection member;
- wherein said flexible wire is configured such that when said joint is in said unfolded position the flexible wire is tensioned and each of the legs is drawn by the tension of the wire towards said connection member and is thereby secured to the connection member, and when said joint is in said folded position the flexible wire is relaxed and the legs are movable with respect to the connection members and while maintained being coupled to the frame by the wire through the orifice of the connection member and the rod.
