A box spring assembly with end rail spring mounting units consisting of a frame having wood side and end rails, metal cross rails, and metal end rail mounting units secured to the end rails. The mounting units locate and support some of the springs in the assembly.

Box spring assembly with end rail spring mounting units

A leg assembly for a bed frame comprising a main body member having an upright passageway and a caster unit having a stem insertable into the passageway by moving it upwardly therein. Flexible tab members on the body member project into the passageway and into a recess formed in the stem when the stem is inserted into the passageway to a predetermined position to inhibit retraction of the stem from the passageway.

Leg assembly for a bed frame

A latch unit for a pair of rectangular telescoped bed frame rails having overlapped side walls with aligned openings therein. The latch unit consists of a hollow rectangular body of one-piece, non-rigid construction, preferably yieldable plastic material, telescoped over the telescoped rails. One side of the body has a locking projection formed on it and shaped to fit in a pair of

Latch unit for adjustable bed frame rails

A bed carrying frame comprising a pair of generally parallel side rail members, of hollow rectangular shape, a pair of end rail units, each of which consists of two relatively telescoped end rail members which are also of hollow rectangular shape, and corner bracket members mounting each of the end rail members on one of the side rail members. The corner bracket members are substantially identical and function to pivotally mount the end rail members on the side rail members for movement between folded positions in which two end rail members are folded against each side rail member and assembled positions in which pairs of end rail members are relatively telescoped and cooperate with the side rail members to form a rectangular frame. A novel latch unit is provided for each pair of relatively telescoped end rail members to maintain the end rail members in predetermined relative positions.
