A bed side railing comprising a plurality of relatively overlying beams extending in the direction of length of the bed and connected at their ends with side posts. The invention has for its object to provide a side railing of the kind set forth, which can be readily coupled and uncoupled with and from a bed respectively, while it has an efficient structure. According to the invention this can be achieved by constructing the beams coupled with the side posts by means of pivotal shafts transverse of the direction of length from two telescopic, relatively slidable portions each, and by connecting each side post near one end with the air of a rotary shaft parallel to the pivotal shafts with coupling members for coupling the side railing with a bed. In the mounted state the side railing can be readily tilted down out of its highest position into a low position in which the railing occupies comparatively little space, while in addition the length of the railing can be shortened for mounting and removing the railing by a relative displacement of the telescopically slidable beam portions. |
