Abstract
An adjustable bed assembly includes a base frame, an articulating mattress support movably coupled to the base frame, and a support attachment assembly. The support attachment assembly includes a first linkage coupled to the articulating mattress support and a second linkage coupled to the first linkage and the base frame. The support attachment assembly includes a support attachment that may include a table top or a storage bin.
Claims20
An adjustable bed assembly comprising:
- a base frame;
- an articulating mattress support movably coupled to the base frame, the articulating mattress support configured to move relative to the base frame between a first position and a second position, the second position being elevated relative to the first position;
- a first linkage coupled to the articulating mattress support for rotation relative thereto;
- a support attachment coupled to the first linkage;
- and
- a second linkage coupled to the first linkage and to the base frame to maintain a level orientation of the support attachment relative to the base frame as the articulating mattress support moves between the first position and the second position;
- wherein the support attachment comprises one of a tabletop, a storage bin, or a combination thereof.
