of the United States, residing in Los Angeles 1 County, near Los Angeles. State of California, havelnvente'd new and useful Improveen'ients-iniloints for Bed-Frames, ot'4 which fthe following@ isa specification.
" This invention relates to joints for bed if ines,'inore partic'ularljv for bed trames of l;
' bead member. a foot member anda mattress member; the joints being provided between fthe latter member andboth of the former members.
vention has for its object to provide an improved joint for vuse-11n the relations stated, which will be superior in point of relative simplicitj` .and inevpensiveness oit 'construction and organization,facility in use and. adjustment. positireness in operation. and durability, and which will be generallysuperior lin ,efficiency-v and serviceability.-
With the above and other objects in vien"7 .the invent-ion consists in the novel and use,-
,'l 3 is a top plan vien'- of theco'nstruction shown in Fig. 1'; and, Fig. i isa Vertical sectional View taken upon the line '-q in each o' Figs. 2 and 3.
Corresponding parts in all ofthe iigures denoted by the saine reference characters. AReferring with particularit'jv' to. the ldravviig', designates the foot Jrai'ne member and l); designates the mattress trame ineinber-of a bedl of which the head traine menr y ber is not thoivn` the saine constituting essentially a duplication of the head frame nien'iber.
C designates the stulied inattresswhich is custon'iarili' placed over the mattress frame g mber ld, or the -Wire or like mattress thereof.

nient of the members betivee'n "which it. isA
'located or to which it is, parts, applied.
vThe. footjr-aine member A comprises the usual uprights or side portions 5. which are connected by the cross rail 6; and the inattress frame-member B includes the usual side rails, such as 7. Each y.of the joints D co1nprises a joint-'portion Vol connected vviththe respective side rail' 7, and a joint portion e in its component connected Withthe'respective frame upright 5. 'The joint portion al consists 'of ahead projecting laterally and out-Wardlj7 from the end or the respective side rail 7, and the joint 'portion e comprises a head projecting' longitudinallyof the befdfroin the 'respective upright 5. The head fl is Wedge-shaned,l tapering downwardly. and'fittingl Within a conipleinentarjv socket S in the head e, eX-
tending downwardljv part-Wav through said head and entirelyv .transversely thereof. A pin or bolt 9 passes lengthwise through the head c and through thesoclzet. 8 therein', crossing thel saine centrallv. and beingac- .commodated `Within a relatively enlarged Lnotch or cut-out portion l'ff Within 'said Wedge d, opening .upwardly in the saine, whereby the Wed-ge al. when home 'in the socket S. straddles the 'bolty 9. A mit il is applied to the outer end of the bolt 9. the inner end of said bolt being seated in the inner portion of `the'head VThe head c is preferaliljY formed of metal ,haring a slight spring qualitj'. such as malleable iron. and the breadth or the socket 8. or its degree of openness, may be determined by adjusting the nut ll upon the bolt 9, bearing against the outer end of' the head c, so as to secure the proper iit of the head d Within the socket 8.
llfhe operation, method of use and advantages ot the improved joints tor bed frame constituting' the invention Will be readily understood from the foregoing description tvpe under consideration. difiicultjjf is often 4eXpcrienced in convenientlj7 and accurately' obtaining an exact. lit. This :tretjue'ntljY results from 'the fact that the'joiniJ consists of two 'accurately fitting partisorportionsgfw: which must 'register exactly inoringmg ille-.1
frame members together. lt one or more ofl the frame membersis slightly-.sprung out ot' shape or not accurately Lproportioned in dimensions,the proper registration of the joint portionsis not possible. Fiorthermore,` the joints often iit loosely 'or wear to tit loosely.
Also it is` customary to provide -t-he joint at Ihe ends oft the' side rail et the mattress rrame members, and therefore if the mat` tress'pro'je'cts laterally of theuside rails it extends beyond th'e lateral connes of the entire bed frame. it will be noted that all of these objections and disadvantages are overcome iny the utilization of the improved joint constituting the invention, The transverse socket 8 andthe relatively enlarged notch 10 in the head i allows compensation for lateral variation in the fit of the head (Z within the.
Ahead e or the notch S therein, such head4 d freely straddling the bolt 9. Also, the socket 8 maybe narrowed'or widened to properly receive and iit the wedge-shaped head d, by adjusting the nut l0 upon the bolt 9, such Wedge formation of the head d andthe socket 8 causing a positive inter-locking eni the person resting upon the edge of the bed,
or the hands of a person making 'up or attending to the bed, between the side rails land the Wire or stuffed mattress or both.
The .improved joint is extremely simple and inexpensive in organization4 and positive, convenient andv eiiicient in adjustment and service. i v
I do not desire to be understood as limit- Y ing myselit' to the speciic provision, conn struction, formation and combination. oi' parts, members and features shown and described; but reservev the right to vary the iltlaving thus described my invention, l
same, in adapting the invention to varying conditions of -ase and serv-ice, without dea'rting from the spirit of the invention and the termsoif the following claims.
ent 1. An improved joint for bed trames and rollator i claim and desire to secure by Letters 'atf the like, comprising two portions respectively v"irpon bed frame members and relatively adjustable transversely thereof, one
of said portions comprising a wedge andthe other oi said portions having an open-ended socket receiving and fitting the wedge.
2. An improved joint for bed trames and ythe like, comprising two portions respectively upon bed frame members, one of said portions comprising a wedge and the other of said portions having an open-ended socket receiving and ittingthe Wedge; said joint projecting in entirety laterally clear of the member with which the wedge is connected.
3. An improved'joint for bed trames and the like, comprising two portions respectively upon bed trame members, oneoi said portions comprising a wedge. and the other of said portions having an open-ended socket receiving and fitting the wedge; the `portion 4having the socket being. provided with a bolt or the like crossing the socket andthe wedge having a cnt-out portion enlarged.
with respect to the bolt and whereby the wedge straddles the bolt.
It. n improved joint for bed frames and"- the like, comprising two portions respec tively upon bed frame members, onebi' said portions comprising a wedge and the other of said portions having an open-ended socketV receiving and tting the wedge; the portion having the socket being provided with a bolt or the like crossing the socket and the.
wedge having a cnt--out portion enlarged with respect to the bolt and'whereby the wedge straddles the. bolt; and. a nut upon the bolt and bearing against the portion`A having the socket.
5; A 'oint for bed it'ramesf'and' the-like, comprising two portions one o' which fits within the other, and means for varying such t under spring tension irrespective of the width of leither member.
