Abstract
A zero-wall adjustable bed (10) comprising a base (12), a support carriage (19) slidably moveable relative to the base (12), an actuator (26), a support platform (16) comprising a back support platform (18), a lower support platform (91) and a mattress bend support platform (21) positioned between the back support platform (18) and the lower support platform (20), the actuator effecting coordinated pivotal movement between the mattress bend support platform (21) and the lower support platform (20), and the mattress bend support platform (21) and the back support platform (18) as the back support platform (18) moves between lowered and raised positions.
Claims19
A zero-wall adjustable bed (10), comprising:
- a base (12), a support carriage (19) on the base (19) and slidably moveable relative to the base (12), an actuator (26), a support platform (16) comprising a back support platform (18), a lower support platform (91) and a mattress bend support platform (21) positioned between the back support platform (18) and the lower support platform (20), the actuator effecting coordinated pivotal movement between the mattress bend support platform (21) and the lower support platform (20), and the mattress bend support platform (21) and the back support platform (18) as the back support platform (18) moves between lowered and raised positions;
- and
- the base (12) includes one of a mattress bend support platform guide (54) or follower, and the mattress bend support platform (21) includes the other of a mattress bend support platform guide or follower (56), such that relative movement between the mattress bend support platform guide (54) and the mattress bend support platform follower (56) causes coordinated pivotal movement between the mattress bend support platform (21) and the lower support platform (20), and the mattress bend support platform (21) and the back support platform (18) as the back support platform (18) moves between lowered and raised positions.
A zero-wall adjustable bed (510), comprising:
- a base (12), a support carriage (19) on the base (19) and slidably moveable relative to the base (12), an actuator (26), a support platform (16) comprising a back support platform (18), a lower support platform (91) and a mattress bend support platform (21) positioned between the back support platform (18) and the lower support platform (20), the actuator effecting coordinated pivotal movement between the mattress bend support platform (21) and the lower support platform (20), and the mattress bend support platform (21) and the back support platform (18) as the back support platform (18) moves between lowered and raised positions;
- and
- a first connecting means (581) which acts directly on the back support platform (518) and a second connecting means (583) which acts directly on the mattress bend support platform or a pivotal point (584) connecting the back support platform (518) and the mattress bend support platform (521) such that the actuator (526) simultaneously drives both support platforms (521,526), the second connecting means (583) is driven by the actuator via the first connecting means (581), in which the second connecting means (583) is pivotally attached to the first connecting means (581) part-way along the first connecting means (581).
The zero-wall adjustable bed (110), comprising:
- a base (12), a support carriage (19) on the base (19) and slidably moveable relative to the base (12), an actuator (26), a support platform (16) comprising a back support platform (18), a lower support platform (91) and a mattress bend support platform (21) positioned between the back support platform (18) and the lower support platform (20), the actuator effecting coordinated pivotal movement between the mattress bend support platform (21) and the lower support platform (20), and the mattress bend support platform (21) and the back support platform (18) as the back support platform (18) moves between lowered and raised positions;
- and
- a footboard (160) slidably fixed to the support carriage (119), in which movement of the support carriage (119) relative to the base (112) causes the footboard (160) to slidably move relative to the base (112).
