Definitions

  • camp bedsteads hitherto sold on the market have many drawbacks. So for instance they 7 have a relatively high weight and require much space after folding, and therefore they are very diflicult to bring along.
  • the present invention relates to a folding bedstead, which maybe taken to pieces and which is so constructed that the above mentioned drawbacks are overcome. Furthermore the weight of the bedstead is as little as possible and the space required by the bedstead when folded is very inconsiderable.
  • the bedstead comprises two side frame pieces having tubular or U- shaped cross section and extending in the longitudinal direction of the bedstead.
  • Each of the said frame pieces consists of one or more parts and between the said frame pieces is disposed the bottom of the bedstead and two or more stirrup- 20 or U-shaped cross pieces detachably connecting the side frame pieces, there being'legs upon said cross pieces forming the legs of the bedstead while .ihe free end portions of the said cross pieces are shaped as pins extending intoholes provided in the side frame pieces, the portion connecting the legs being adapted to constitute support against the ground.
  • the especially new and characterizing feature of the invention consists in that the legs of each cross piece are pivotally secured in the portion connecting the same and swingable about horizontal axes in the plane of the cross piece and that the legs and the connecting portion are arranged in such manner that after the bedstead has been taken to pieces all of the cross pieces or most of them may be put into the side frame pieces or into the parts forming the same.
  • Figure 1 shows a plan view of the bedstead, the bottom of the bedstead being removed in part
  • Figure 2 is a lateral view of the same
  • FIG. 3 shows a. fragmentary section taken on line 33 of a part of Figure 2
  • Figure 5 shows a cross piece
  • Figure 6 is a section taken on line 66 of Figure 5
  • 0 Figure 7 is a section taken on line 1-1 of Figure 5.
  • Each of the side frame pieces of the bedstead consists of two tubes H and I2, which are conwhen put tonected with each other by means of the hingeshaped joint 13.
  • the side frame pieces are connected with each other by means of three stirrup-shaped or concave-sectioned cross pieces l6, I7, l8, the free end portions of which are inserted in holes, which have been provided in the tubes 1! and I2.
  • the free end portions of the tubes II are bent somewhat inwards and upwards and asupport M for the head is arrangedin the said end portions.
  • the body. rest or supporting bottom l5-of the bedstead consists of a cloth, and'the longitudinal sides of the same are provided with tubular hems, in which are inserted the side frame pieces and the portions of the support for the head, which are connected with the tubes II.
  • the portion l8 connecting the legs I6, I! has U-shaped cross section.
  • the legs which also have U-shaped cross section, are each pivotally secured to its end portion of the portion l8 and are pivotally disposed in the symmetry plane of thecross piece.
  • Abrace l9 whichconsists preferably of a tube, has one end pivotally connected to the leg I! at a distance from the free end of the latter. The other end is slidable in the portion! 8.
  • a brace is .providedat the leg 16.
  • This brace consists of two parts 20 and 2
  • a spiral spring 22 is disposed in the middle of the member l8, against which spring the braces rest, when the legs of the cross piece are connected with the side frame pieces and when the cloth or fabric forming the body rest .or bottom of the bedstead has been strained.
  • the legs l6 and I! have U-shaped cross sections, in order that the braces, which are narrower than the distance between the flanges of the legs, may be foldedinto the same, the two legs in disassembled condition of thebedstead folding down into alignment with the cross piece member and extending from the ends thereof.
  • the spring 22 is secured to the member 18 by means of a rivet 23, which is dis,- posed in a plate 24 soldered on to the member l8.
  • the spiral spring serves to prevent, the cloth from V burstingwhen subjected to hard stresses, the rbraces pressing the spring together alittle on such, occasions.
  • each cross piece is pushed into any 7 oi? the'tubes'l'l and l2, the latter thusforming hollow, elongated cro'ss piece storage members which could be any other practical form rendering them-capable of receiving the crosspieces in collapsed condition of the bedstead.
  • the support for'the head also is inserted in a similar way.
  • the folded sideuf rame pieces are then rolled towards each other and a very small package is obtained, whichmay be inserted n a covering in the shape of a bag;
  • the bedstead when putfinw a bag is illustrated ini Figure 4.
  • the member I8 are preferably the'endsv of a pin 28, which is provided in each ofthe free end portionsof the braces, are guided, whereby the braces rcannot leave the groove in provided with longitudinal grooves 21 in which the memberlfl' (see Fig. 6).
  • a similar guiding is also obtained, if the free flanges of the connectingpmember l8 are provided with inwardly and V downwardly bent edges.
  • Figure 7 shows asection taken on line 1f1 oi? ' Figure5, the -leg I9, however, imagined to be swung down to the position which is indicated by dash and dot lines to the right in Figure 5.
  • the cross piece is imagined to be disposed in one of the'tubes forming, the side frame pieces, 'for example the tube l2.
  • Thespiral. spring 22 may also be, replaced by another member serving as a stop, especially in V bedsteads that are'not meant to be subjected to ⁇ too hard stresses. i'urthermore it is not necessary to provide the tubes l I and I2 with thejoints V r 13, but they maybe connected by means of sleeves.
  • a portable and foldable bedstead comprising,
  • cross piece members adapted to lie horizontally'upon the groundand support the bedstead as a whole, which cross pieces have channeled legs extending upwardly so as to form thelegs of the bedstead and terini- V der to render each cross piece, together withthe legs thereof, capable of being introduced into one of said elongated storage members, and abrace pivotally connected at one end toeach leg and having'the other end movable in the chanc neled cross piece to which the respective leg'is connected, which brace is foldable with the leg into alignment withsaid cross piece,
  • a portable brace" associated with the legs of each cross piece member is provided with lateral extensions and the cross piece member involved is formedwith side grooves in the :lateralwalls thereof serving as guides for "the lateral projections upon the ends of said bracesin which said projections 1 are slidable.
  • each brace associated with the legs of the bedstead is provided with a pin extending transversely therethrough, and each cross-piece member is provided with side channel portions serving to guide said pin during movement of the brace involved while setting up and disassembling the bedstead.
