Abstract
A bedstead for single beds, which can be assembled pairwise, adjacent to one another, into a double bed, particularly hotel beds, with a peripheral bed frame, which surrounds the region for accommodating at least one mattress and encircles the mattress in a lower part, is configured in such a way that the bed frame consists of least one narrow-walled metal plate which, at least at the longitudinal sides of the bedstead, is set so far to the inside with respect to the outline of the mattress(es), that its external surfaces do not protrude beyond the outline of the mattress, in order to make it possible that the mattress is held securely and stably on the bedstead and that the transition between the two mattresses is almost gapless in the assembled position.
Claims21
A bedstead movable between a first position and a second position transversely displaced from said first position comprising a bed structure having a longitudinal axis, at least one transverse bar on said bed structure, said transverse bar having an elongate axis perpendicular to said longitudinal axis of said bed structure, a base fixed to a floor, support means operable with said base for vertically moving said support means between a lowered position and an elevated positions, mounting means mounting said support means on said transverse bar such that when said support means moves between its lowered and elevated position, said transverse bar and said bed structure also move between lowered and elevated positions, said mounting means further mounting said support means on said traverse bar to provide for relative shifting movement between said support means and said transverse bar such that when said support means is in said elevated position at one longitudinal end of said transverse bar, the bed structure juxtaposed to the other end of the transfer bar is adapted to be manually raised so that the bed structure can be shifted transversely from said first position to said second position while being supported by said base via said support means and said mounting means.
A bedstead for accommodating a mattress comprising a bed structure having a bottom and a longitudinal side wall, said mattress being received in said bed structure to engage said bottom and said longitudinal side wall, said longitudinal side wall having a height less than the height of said mattress such that an upper side portion of said mattress is disposed higher than said longitudinal side wall, said longitudinal side wall of said bed structure underlying said upper side portion of said mattress such that said longitudinal side wall does not protrude beyond said upper side portion of said mattress, another like bed structure having another like mattress received therein, said first mentioned bed structure being positioned against said like bed structure such that the upper side portions of the mattresses on each bed structure engage one another without any gap therebetween.
A bed comprising a first bedstead for accommodating a first mattress, said first bedstead comprising a first bed structure having a first bottom and a first longitudinal side wall, said first mattress being received in said first bed structure to engage said first bottom and said first longitudinal side wall, said first longitudinal side wall having a height less than the height of said first mattress such that an upper side portion of said first mattress is disposed higher than said first longitudinal side wall, said first longitudinal side wall of said first bed structure underlying said upper side portion of said first mattress such that said first longitudinal side wall does not protrude beyond said upper side portion of said first mattress, a second bedstead for accommodating a second mattress, said second bedstead comprising a second bed structure having a second bottom and a second longitudinal side wall, said second mattress being received in said second bed structure to engage said second bottom and said second longitudinal side wall, said second longitudinal side wall having a height less than the height of said second mattress such that an upper side portion of said second mattress is disposed higher than said second longitudinal said wall, said second longitudinal side wall underlying said upper side portion of said second mattress such that said side second longitudinal side wall does not protrude beyond said upper side portion of said second mattress, said first bed structure being positioned against said second bed structure such that upper side portion of said first mattress engages said upper side portion of said second mattress without any gap therebetween.
A bedstead for accommodating a mattress comprising a narrow-walled metal plate formed into a bed structure having a bottom and two longitudinal side walls, said bed structure having a longitudinal axis, transverse bars on said bed structure extending transversely of said longitudinal axis, fastening means fastening said transverse bars to said bed structure, said fastening means being disposed so as not to protrude externally of said longitudinal side walls of said bed frame, said mattress being received in said bed structure to engage said bottom and said longitudinal side walls, said longitudinal side walls having a height less than the height of said mattress such that an upper portion of said mattress is disposed higher than said two longitudinal side walls, said longitudinal side walls underlying said upper portion of said mattress such that said longitudinal side walls do not protrude beyond the sides of said mattress, whereby said bed structure is adapted to be positioned against another like bed structure in which the mattresses on each bed structure engage one another without any gap therebetween.
