Description

The present invention relates to a fence for preventing a hand or a foot from protruding from a bed or a mattress when sleeping, or a body or a comforter from falling down from a bed or a mattress due to turning over.

Conventionally, when a child or an adult is sleeping, as a means to prevent the body or comforter from falling off the bed due to turning over, it is fixed to the bed frame so that it can be seen on hospital beds and children's beds There were hard fences such as metal or wooden fences that surrounded the bed with a fence that prevented the body or comforters from falling off the bed. In addition, some fences are foldable, and there are those that can reduce the climbing up and down to the bed by folding when not needed. However, none of these fences correspond to mattresses and mattresses that lay directly on the floor or tatami.
