Insert frame

The innovation relates to an insert frame for bed frames to support a mattress placed on top by means of inserted spring slats as cross members, which are held by bars on both sides of the insert frame and are arranged in divided bars to form partial elements, whereby the free bar ends of the formed partial elements can be coupled via attached fittings.

A large number of insert frames are known, which are designed either as simple continuous frames or as frames with corresponding adjustable head and/or foot sections. The problem with all of these frames is that the frames are bulky for individual transport by private persons in cars or for storage and logistics.

Items are not designed to be cheap. This means that marketing through take-away markets and DIY stores is only possible to a limited extent.

It is already known to form frames from parts that can be joined together and to secure them using connections. These known arrangements require a relatively complex fitting and it has been shown that if there are dimensional deviations, particularly due to the drying out of the wood material, fastening problems arise. Furthermore, movements in the connecting areas of the parts cannot be ruled out.

The aim of the innovation is to create an improvement in the generic frame designs, which enables both transportability and logistical handling and ensures proper assembly with a simple fitting with the necessary fixation of the beam ends, even by laymen.

This problem is solved in accordance with the invention in that the adjacent ends of the beams of the partial elements engage with each other on their facing end faces by means of corresponding elements to form a connection and that the ends of the beams can be overlapped by means of an attachable T-shaped fitting part and a flange of the fitting part can be fixed to the inside or outside of the beam by means of fastening means and its web can be inserted into an associated horizontal groove in the area of the ends of the beam.

This makes it possible to provide transportable frame elements and to form a simple fitting part without impacting any dimensional changes that occur across the beam and to achieve a stabilized

to ensure continuous spar formation, which is fixed by the combination of the connection.

The arrangement of the connections is such that the T-shaped fittings are firmly connected to one side of the sub-elements on both sides or offset on different sides of the beam ends of the adjacent sub-elements.

A favorable design is created by forming the connection area of the beam ends using a tongue and groove connection, dowel connection or a connection by galvanizing.

The drawing shows schematic examples of the innovation. It shows:

Fig. 1 an overall view of a composite insert frame with spring strips,

Fig. 2 a representation of a fitting part in section,

Fig. 3 joined beam ends with inserted fitting and

Fig. 4 associated beam ends with a galvanization.

The illustrated insert frame 1 consists of beams 2 arranged on both sides, which are joined together to form a frame by end stops 3 and serve as a support for a mattress placed on top by means of transverse spring strips 4.

In this case, the spars 2 are divided three times and connected by fittings 5, so that four

Frame parts 6, 7, 8 and 9 are formed. In particular, it is intended to divide it twice so that there are three sub-elements of the same length. It is also conceivable to divide it into just two frame parts.

The beams 2 are separated between the spring strips 4. The adjacent beam ends of each frame part 6, 7, 8 or 9 are joined together by the corresponding elements 10, 11 according to Fig. 4 to form a galvanization. Of course, other connections can also be selected for joining the beam ends. According to Fig. 3, a tongue and groove connection is shown here.

The interface 12 formed is additionally overlapped by the T-shaped fitting part 5, whereby a flange 13 of the fitting part 5 can be fixed to the inside or outside of the spar 2 using screws 14 as a fastening means. The corresponding web 15 of the T-shaped fitting part 5 engages in an associated horizontal groove 16 of the spar ends, so that additional fixing is achieved.

It is expedient that the fitting part 5 is already placed on one end of the beam of the partial element 6,7,8,9 and is firmly connected via the connecting means 14 via holes. After the partial element 6,7,8,9 to be connected has been assigned, the overlapping end of the angle element 5 is also fixed via hole and screw 14.

In order to better assign the connection in interface 12, it is also possible to

Fittings 5 are to be pre-assembled on different sides of the beam ends of the adjacent sub-elements 6,7,8,9.
