Abstract
A kit may include at least one frame lifting mechanism configured to be mounted within the support frame. The lifting mechanism may include a movable element configured to be movably mounted to the frame and an extendible member configured to extend between the movable element and a static member mounted on the frame. The movable element includes at least one support portion extending from a lower surface of the movable element when the movable element is mounted to the frame. The extendible member is configured to be movable between a compressed state and an extended state. The movable element is configured to be mounted to the frame such that on extension of the extendible member the movable element is pushed downwards and the at least one support portion moves below a base of the frame and provides a lifting force to the frame.
