Definitions
- the present disclosure relates to the field of bedding, and more specifically box springs.
- a box spring typically comprises a quadrangular frame and slats suspended from this frame.
- the frame typically comprises at least two side members connected at their ends by cross members, the side members and cross members being oriented normally at right angles to each other.
- kit bed bases In order to facilitate logistics and limit the cost of producing bed bases, it is also known practice to produce and distribute kit bed bases to be assembled on site by unskilled personnel, or even by consumers themselves. For this, corner masses and methods to facilitate this assembly have been proposed, for example in patents US 3,683,429 and US10,028,589 which disclose connection systems by a male member in the form of a wedge fitted into a complementary female receptacle.
- the documents WO 2015/179350 , WO 2016/196731 , WO 2017/019199 , US 2019/0000236 and WO 2017/011630 use the same principle.
- An alternative solution disclosed for example in the documents EP 3 424 367 A1 , EP 0 740 084 B1 and WO 2019/018624 , consists of a central wedge inserted in aligned holes located in side pieces fixed, respectively, to the side member and to the cross member.
- the present disclosure aims to remedy these drawbacks, by proposing a corner mass for a bed base allowing easy but particularly stable assembly of the bed base.
- this corner mass can comprise a central wedge with at least two converging ramps, at least one lateral element and a clamping device.
- Each side element can be either integral with a side member or a cross member of the bed base, or adapted to be fixed to the side member or to the cross member, while the clamping device is configured to clamp each side element against at least one of the at least two ramps of the central wedge in order to consolidate a connection of the spar to the cross member of the bed base through the corner mass.
- the at least one side member may include a first side member and a second side member, and the clamp device is configured to clamp the first side member against a first ramp of the at least two converging ramps. and the second lateral element against a second ramp of the at least two converging ramps.
- the first lateral element can be either integral with the spar or adapted to be fixed to the latter and the second lateral element can be either integral with the cross member or able to be fixed to the latter. The tightening of the central wedge between the first and second lateral elements will thus bring them together by consolidating a stable connection of the spar to the cross member by the corner mass.
- the ramps and the side elements can include mutually complementary undercuts. .
- the at least one side element may be integral with or capable of being fixed to one of the side member and of the cross member of the bed base and comprise a receptacle capable of receiving the central wedge, while the central wedge can then be integral with or to be fixed to the other of the side member and to the cross member of the bed base, for example through a support orthogonal to a direction of clamping of the central wedge in the receptacle.
- the central wedge may in particular have the shape of a pyramid or truncated pyramid, with for example a quadrangular section perpendicular to the direction of clamping of the central wedge in the receptacle.
- the clamping device may include a threaded rod and a corresponding threaded hole.
- One of the threaded rod and the threaded hole may be located in a point of the central wedge, towards which the at least two ramps converge, so that tightening can be effected by screwing the threaded rod into the 'tapped hole.
- the other of the threaded rod and the threaded hole can be secured to a base lug, in such a way that the tightening can be carried out by screwing the base bracket to the corner mass.
- the present disclosure also relates to a box spring comprising at least one side member and a cross member connected by a corner mass as described above, and a bed comprising such a base.
- the present disclosure also relates to a method of assembling a bed base, comprising a step of tightening at least one lateral element of a corner mass in order to consolidate a connection of a spar to a cross member of the bed base. through the angle mass.
- said at least one lateral element of the corner mass is secured to at least one of a spar or a cross member of the bed base, and is tightened, with a clamping device, against at least one ramp among two converging ramps of a central wedge of the corner mass.
- the at least one lateral element can comprise a first lateral element and a second lateral element.
- the first lateral element may be integral with the spar of the bed base and be clamped against a first ramp of at least two converging ramps and the second lateral element may be secured to the cross member of the bed base and be clamped against a second ramp of at least two converging ramps.
- the central wedge during tightening, may be integral with the other among the side member and the cross member of the bed base and be received in a receptacle of the side element.
- Tightening can in particular be carried out by screwing a threaded rod of the tightening device into a corresponding threaded hole of the tightening device, one of the threaded rod and of the threaded hole being located in a point of the central wedge, towards which the at least two ramps converge.
- the other of the threaded rod and of the threaded orifice may be integral with a base lug, tightening then being effected by screwing the base lug to the angle mass.
- the assembly method may include a step of fixing the at least a side element to the side member and / or to the cross member of the bed base before said tightening.
- a bed base frame 100 is schematically illustrated on fig. 1 .
- This frame 100 which may be of quadrangular shape, and more specifically rectangular, may comprise, as illustrated, two parallel side members 101, connected at their ends by two cross members 102 also parallel, at a substantially right angle to the side members 101.
- the terms “spar” and “cross member” are to be understood as being essentially interchangeable, both designating elongated elements forming the frame 100 and being distinguished only by their relative length, the spars extending in the direction the length of the frame 100 and the crosspieces in the width direction.
- the frame 100 can even be square, therefore with side members and cross members of the same length, or even essentially identical.
- the side members 101 and the cross members 102 may be mutually connected, at the angles 103 of the frame 100, by angle masses 110 such as those illustrated in greater detail on the figures 2 to 4 .
- Each corner mass 110 can comprise at least one lateral element 111 and a central wedge 112.
- the lateral element 111 can be adapted to be fixed to the spar 101 or to the cross member 102, for example with screws 120 received in holes. through 103 in the side element 111.
- other fixing techniques such as for example by gluing, can be used, and it is even conceivable to form the side element 111 integrally with the side member 101 or cross member 102, so that it is already integral with it without the need for fixing.
- the central wedge 112 may be able to be fixed to the other of the side member 101 and the cross member 102, in particular also by screws 121 received in through holes 104 in a lateral support 113 integral with the central wedge 112.
- Other fixing techniques, such as bonding, can however also be used, and it is also even possible to form the lateral support 113 and the central wedge 112 integrally to the spar 101 or cross member 102, so that it is already integral with it without the need for fixing.
- the central wedge 112 may include at least two converging ramps 114. As illustrated, in this first embodiment, the central wedge 112 may be in the shape of a pyramid or truncated pyramid, and the at least two converging ramps 114 be formed by the side faces. of this pyramid or truncated pyramid. Although a square-based pyramid shape is illustrated, other shapes, preferably non-axisymmetric, are possible.
- the lateral element 111 has a receptacle 115 with a shape complementary to the central wedge 112, and capable of receiving it.
- the angle mass 110 may also include a clamping device 130, which may in particular include a threaded rod 131 and a threaded hole 132 complementary thereto, so as to allow the lateral element 111 to be clamped against.
- the threaded hole 132 can be located in a point 133 of the central wedge 112, towards which the converging ramps 114 converge, and the threaded rod 131 be integral with 'a tab 134 of the base.
- a nut 135 integrated in the central wedge 112 can be crossed by this threaded hole 132 to contribute its internal thread.
- this arrangement can alternatively be reversed, so as to locate the threaded hole in the tab and the threaded rod on the point of the central wedge.
- the latter may have a through hole 136.
- the tab 134 and side member 111 may have opposing surfaces 137, 138 configured to come into contact to clamp side member 111 against center wedge 112 when screwing threaded rod 131 into threaded hole 132.
- the side member 111 can be fixed to the side member 101 and the central wedge 112 to the cross member 102, or the side member 111 to the cross 102 and the central wedge 112 to the spar 101, if they are not already integral with it. Then, the central wedge 112 can be introduced into the receptacle 115. Finally, the threaded rod 131 can be screwed into the threaded hole 132 so as to clamp the receptacle 115 against the central wedge 112, thus consolidating the connection between the spar. 101 and the cross member 102, while fixing the tab 134 to the frame 100.
- each corner mass 110 can comprise a first lateral element 111a, a second lateral element 111b, and a central wedge 112.
- the first and second lateral elements 111a, 111b can be adapted to be fixed to the side member 101 and to the cross member 102, for example with screws 120 received in through holes 103 in the side elements 111a, 111b.
- other fixing techniques such as for example by gluing, can be used, and it is even conceivable to form the first and / or the second lateral element 111a, 111b integrally with the spar 101 or cross member 102, so so that it is already integral with it without the need for fixing.
- the central wedge 112 can have two converging ramps 114 with undercuts able to engage complementary undercuts on the side elements 111a, 111b so as to guide the side elements 111a, 111b in converging directions while maintaining their relative orientation.
- the corner mass 110 may also include a clamping device 130, which may in particular include a threaded rod 131 and a threaded hole 132 complementary thereto, so as to allow clamping of the elements.
- a clamping device 130 which may in particular include a threaded rod 131 and a threaded hole 132 complementary thereto, so as to allow clamping of the elements.
- the threaded hole 132 can be located in a point 133 of the central wedge 112, towards which converge the converging ramps 114, and the threaded rod 131 be integral with a tab 134 of the base.
- a nut 135 integrated in the central wedge 112 can be crossed by this threaded hole 132 to contribute its internal thread.
- this arrangement can alternatively be reversed, so as to locate the threaded hole in the tab and the threaded rod on the point of the central wedge.
- the threaded rod 131 can pass between the two side elements.
- Each side member 111a, 111b can have a surface 138 opposite to a surface 137 of the tab 134. These surfaces 137, 138 can be configured to come into contact to clamp each side member 111a, 111b against the central wedge 112 during the screwing the threaded rod 131 into the threaded hole 132.
