Bed with anti-rattle mechanism for a bed rail

Abstract

There is described a bed comprising a frame, a rail pivotally mounted on the frame and pivotable between a guardrail position and an open position, a distance between the frame and the rail when the rail is in the guardrail position, and a resilient element mounted on the frame or on the rail or on both the frame and the rail to fill the distance between the frame and the rail when the rail is in the guardrail position to thereby reduce rattling of the rail when the rail is in the guardrail position. The resilient element is preferably a resilient roller mounted on the frame, the roller engaging the rail when the rail is pivoted into the guardrail position.
