KNOCK DOWN FOUNDATION FOR A BED

摘要

A bed foundation (10) comprises a pair of parallel spaced side rails (12) with ends connected by corner braces (22) to the ends of parallel, spaced cross rails (14) thereby defining a rectangular box frame (26). Upwardly facing edges of the cross rails (14) and side rails (12) lie in a common plane. A pair of generally planar top panels (40) are positioned on the frame (26) with their peripheral edges (42) flush with the outer edges of the frame (26). The corner braces (22) extend above the plane defined by the upwardly facing edges of the rails (12, 14) providing lips (36) which cooperate with corners of the panels (40) to retain the panels (40) immovable on the frame (26). A third panel (40a) may be positioned between the pair of panels (40) and a clip (50) which engages both an edge of the third panel (40a) and the upwardly facing edge of a cross rail (14) to retain the third panel (40a) immovable relative to the frame (26).
