[0025]The present disclosure is now described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which embodiments of the present disclosure are shown. The present disclosure may, however, be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as necessarily being limited to the embodiments disclosed herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that the present disclosure is thorough and complete, and fully conveys the concepts of the present disclosure to those skilled in the relevant art.
[0026]Features described with respect to certain embodiments may be combined and sub-combined in and/or with various other embodiments. Also, different aspects and/or elements of embodiments, as disclosed herein, may be combined and sub-combined in a similar manner as well. Further, some embodiments, whether individually and/or collectively, may be components of a larger system, wherein other procedures may take precedence over and/or otherwise modify their application. Additionally, a number of steps may be required before, after, and/or concurrently with embodiments, as disclosed herein. Note that any and/or all methods and/or processes, at least as disclosed herein, can be at least partially performed via at least one entity in any manner.
[0027]The terminology used herein can imply direct or indirect, full or partial, temporary or permanent, action or inaction. For example, when an element is referred to as being “on,”“connected” or “coupled” to another element, then the element can be directly on, connected or coupled to the other element and/or intervening elements can be present, including indirect and/or direct variants. In contrast, when an element is referred to as being “directly connected” or “directly coupled” to another element, there are no intervening elements present.
[0028]Although the terms first, second, etc. can be used herein to describe various elements, components, regions, layers and/or sections, these elements, components, regions, layers and/or sections should not necessarily be limited by such terms. These terms are used to distinguish one element, component, region, layer or section from another element, component, region, layer or section. Thus, a first element, component, region, layer, or section discussed below could be termed a second element, component, region, layer, or section without departing from the teachings of the present disclosure.
[0029]The terminology used herein is for describing particular embodiments and is not intended to be necessarily limiting of the present disclosure. As used herein, the singular forms “a,”“an” and “the” are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. The terms “comprises,”“includes” and/or “comprising,”“including” when used in this specification, specify the presence of stated features, integers, steps, operations, elements, and/or components, but do not preclude the presence and/or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components, and/or groups thereof.
[0030]As used herein, the term “or” is intended to mean an inclusive “or” rather than an exclusive “or” That is, unless specified otherwise, or clear from context, “X employs A or B” is intended to mean any of the natural inclusive permutations. That is, if X employs A; X employs B; or X employs both A and B, then “X employs A or B” is satisfied under any of the foregoing instances.
[0031]Embodiments of the present disclosure are described herein with reference to illustrations of idealized embodiments (and intermediate structures) of the present disclosure. As such, variations from the shapes of the illustrations as a result, for example, of manufacturing techniques and/or tolerances, are to be expected. Thus, the embodiments of the present disclosure should not be construed as necessarily limited to the particular shapes of regions illustrated herein, but are to include deviations in shapes that result, for example, from manufacturing.
[0032]Any and/or all elements, as disclosed herein, can be formed from a same, structurally continuous piece, such as being unitary, and/or be separately manufactured and/or connected, such as being an assembly and/or modules. Any and/or all elements, as disclosed herein, can be manufactured via any manufacturing processes, whether additive manufacturing, subtractive manufacturing, and/or other any other types of manufacturing. For example, some manufacturing processes include three dimensional (30) printing, laser cutting, computer numerical control routing, milling, pressing, stamping, vacuum forming, hydroforming, injection molding, lithography, and so forth.
[0033]Any and/or all elements, as disclosed herein, can be and/or include, whether partially and/or fully, a solid, including a metal, a mineral, a gemstone, an amorphous material, a ceramic, a glass ceramic, an organic solid, such as wood and/or a polymer, such as rubber, a composite material, a semiconductor, a nanomaterial, a biomaterial and/or any combinations thereof. Any and/or all elements, as disclosed herein, can be and/or include, whether partially and/or fully, a coating, including an informational coating, such as ink, an adhesive coating, a melt-adhesive coating, such as vacuum seal and/or heat seal, a release coating, such as tape liner, a low surface energy coating, an optical coating, such as for tint, color, hue, saturation, tone, shade, transparency, translucency, opaqueness, luminescence, reflection, phosphorescence, anti-reflection and/or holography, a photo-sensitive coating, an electronic and/or thermal property coating, such as for passivity, insulation, resistance or conduction, a magnetic coating, a water-resistant and/or waterproof coating, a scent coating and/or any combinations thereof. Any and/or all elements, as disclosed herein, can be rigid, flexible, and/or any other combinations thereof. Any and/or all elements, as disclosed herein, can be identical and/or different from each other in material, shape, size, color and/or any measurable dimension, such as length, width, height, depth, area, orientation, perimeter, volume, breadth, density, temperature, resistance, and so forth.
[0034]Unless otherwise defined, all terms (including technical and scientific terms) used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure belongs. The terms, such as those defined in commonly used dictionaries, should be interpreted as having a meaning that is consistent with their meaning in the context of the relevant art and should not be interpreted in an idealized and/or overly formal sense unless expressly so defined herein.
[0035]Furthermore, relative terms such as “below,”“lower,”“above,” and “upper” can be used herein to describe one element's relationship to another element as illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Such relative terms are intended to encompass different orientations of illustrated technologies in addition to the orientation depicted in the accompanying drawings. For example, if a device in the accompanying drawings were turned over, then the elements described as being on the “lower” side of other elements would then be oriented on “upper” sides of the other elements. Similarly, if the device in one of the figures were turned over, elements described as “below” or “beneath” other elements would then be oriented “above” the other elements. Therefore, the example terms “below” and “lower” can encompass both an orientation of above and below.
[0036]As used herein, the term “about” and/or “substantially” refers to a +/−10% variation from the nominal value/term. Such variation is always included in any given value/term provided herein, whether or not such variation is specifically referred thereto.
[0037]If any disclosures are incorporated herein by reference and such disclosures conflict in part and/or in whole with the present disclosure, then to the extent of conflict, and/or broader disclosure, and/or broader definition of terms, the present disclosure controls. If such disclosures conflict in part and/or in whole with one another, then to the extent of conflict, the later-dated disclosure controls.
[0038]FIG. 1 shows an exploded view of a bed frame, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. A bed frame 100 includes a first frame section 102. The first frame section 102 is defined via a plurality of longitudinal elements 104, such as beams, shafts, or bars of any cross section, whether solid or hollow internally, and a plurality of lateral elements 106, such as beams, shafts, or bars of any cross section, whether solid or hollow internally. The longitudinal elements 104 extend in parallel to each other. The lateral elements 106 extend in parallel with each other. The lateral elements 106 span between the longitudinal elements 104. Accordingly, the longitudinal elements 104 and the lateral elements 106 define a plurality of open spaces 108 via such configuration. The first frame section 102 can be one-piece, such as unitary, or an assembly of pieces.
[0039]The longitudinal elements 104 are parallel to each other. However, the longitudinal elements 104 can be non-parallel to each other, such as acutely or obtusely angled. The lateral elements 106 are parallel to each other. However, the lateral elements 106 can be non-parallel to each other, such as acutely or obtusely angled. The lateral elements 106 are perpendicular to the longitudinal elements 104. However, the lateral elements 106 can be non-perpendicular to the longitudinal elements 104, such as obtusely or acutely angled. The longitudinal elements 104 are one-piece, such as unitary, but can be an assembly. The lateral elements 106 are one-piece, such as unitary, but can be an assembly. The longitudinal elements 104 are one-piece, such as unitary, to the lateral elements 106, but can be an assembly. At least one of the longitudinal elements 104 extends rectilinearly, but can extend in other manners, such as sinusoidal, arcuate, pulse-shaped, zigzag, or any other manner. At least one of the lateral elements 106 extends rectilinearly, but can extend in other manners, such as sinusoidal, arcuate, pulse-shaped, zigzag, or any other manner.
[0040]Although the open spaces 108 are rectangular in shape, the open spaces 108 can be shaped differently depending on how the longitudinal elements 104 or the lateral elements 106 are configured. For example, the open spaces 108 can be square, oval, arcuate, or rhombus shaped. Note that other longitudinal elements 104 can span between the lateral elements 106, whether in parallel to at least one of the longitudinal elements 104 or not. For example, if a longitudinal element 104 spans between two of the lateral elements 106, while being parallel to at least one of the longitudinal elements 104, an H-shape can be formed. However, if a longitudinal element 104 spans between two of the lateral elements 106, while not being parallel to at least one of the longitudinal elements 104, a Z-shape can be formed. Alternatively, the first frame section 102 includes only one longitudinal element 104, such as an inner longitudinal element 104, such that the lateral elements 106 extend from the only one longitudinal element 104 in a cantilevered manner, whether perpendicular or non-perpendicular thereto, such as obtusely or acutely angled. For example, such configuration be in an E-shape manner, a rib manner, or a herringbone manner, such as a V-manner. Alternatively, the first frame section 102 lacks the open spaces 108 and is therefore solid, such as via being planar.
[0041]Further, note that at least one of the longitudinal elements 104 contains at least one of metal, wood, plastic, rubber, glass, stone, or another suitable material. Likewise, note that at least one of the lateral elements 106 contains at least one of metal, wood, plastic, rubber, glass, stone, or another suitable material.
[0042]Additionally, an inner longitudinal element 104 of the longitudinal elements 104 defines a bore 110. The bore 110 is circular in shape and threaded, but can be at least one of non-circular or non-threaded. The bore 110 extends fully through the inner longitudinal element 104 of the longitudinal elements 104. Alternatively, the bore 110 does not extend fully through the inner longitudinal element 104 of the longitudinal elements 104 such that the bore 110 is stopped, such as a well.
[0043]The bed frame 100 also includes a second frame section 112. The first frame section 102 and the second frame section 112 can be configured identical to or different from each other in any manner, whether in whole or in part, whether in structure, shape, function, material, size, component, weight, or any other aspect. The second frame section 112 is defined via a plurality of longitudinal elements 114, such as beams, shafts, or bars of any cross section, whether solid or hollow internally, and a plurality of lateral elements 116, such as beams, shafts, or bars of any cross section, whether solid or hollow internally. The longitudinal elements 114 extend in parallel to each other. The lateral elements 116 extend in parallel with each other. The lateral elements 116 span between the longitudinal elements 114. Accordingly, the longitudinal elements 114 and the lateral elements 116 define a plurality of open spaces 118 via such configuration. The second frame section 112 can be one-piece, such as unitary, or an assembly of pieces.
[0044]The longitudinal elements 114 are parallel to each other. However, the longitudinal elements 114 can be non-parallel to each other, such as acutely or obtusely angled. The lateral elements 116 are parallel to each other. However, the lateral elements 116 can be non-parallel to each other, such as acutely or obtusely angled. The lateral elements 116 are perpendicular to the longitudinal elements 114. However, the lateral elements 116 can be non-perpendicular to the longitudinal elements 114, such as obtusely or acutely angled. The longitudinal elements 114 are one-piece, such as unitary, but can be an assembly. The lateral elements 116 are one-piece, such as unitary, but can be an assembly. The longitudinal elements 114 are one-piece, such as unitary, to the lateral elements 116, but can be an assembly. At least one of the longitudinal elements 114 extends rectilinearly, but can extend in other manners, such as sinusoidal, arcuate, pulse-shaped, zigzag, or any other manner. At least one of the lateral elements 116 extends rectilinearly, but can extend in other manners, such as sinusoidal, arcuate, pulse-shaped, zigzag, or any other manner.
[0045]Although the open spaces 118 are rectangular in shape, the open spaces 118 can be shaped differently depending on how the longitudinal elements 114 or the lateral elements 116 are configured. For example, the open spaces 118 can be square, oval, arcuate, or rhombus shaped. Note that other longitudinal elements 114 can span between the lateral elements 116, whether in parallel to at least one of the longitudinal elements 114 or not. For example, if a longitudinal element 114 spans between two of the lateral elements 116, while being parallel to at least one of the longitudinal elements 114, an H-shape can be formed. However, if a longitudinal element 114 spans between two of the lateral elements 116, while not being parallel to at least one of the longitudinal elements 114, a Z-shape can be formed. Alternatively, the first frame section 112 includes only one longitudinal element 114, such as an inner longitudinal element 114, such that the lateral elements 116 extend from the only one longitudinal element 114 in a cantilevered manner, whether perpendicular or non-perpendicular thereto, such as obtusely or acutely angled. For example, such configuration be in an E-shape manner, a rib manner, or a herringbone manner, such as a V-manner. Alternatively, the second frame section 112 lacks the open spaces 118 and is therefore solid, such as via being planar.
[0046]Further, note that at least one of the longitudinal elements 114 contains at least one of metal, wood, plastic, rubber, glass, stone, or another suitable material. Likewise, note that at least one of the lateral elements 116 contains at least one of metal, wood, plastic, rubber, glass, stone, or another suitable material.
[0047]Additionally, an inner longitudinal element 114 of the longitudinal elements 114 defines a bore 120. The bore 120 is circular in shape and threaded, but can be at least one of non-circular or non-threaded. The bore 120 extends fully through the inner longitudinal element 114 of the longitudinal elements 114. Alternatively, the bore 120 does not extend fully through the inner longitudinal element 114 of the longitudinal elements 114 such that the bore 120 is stopped, such as a well. The bore 110 and the bore 120 are aligned with each other, such as via opposing each other, while extending parallel to the lateral elements 106 and 116. However, note that such alignment can also be offset, such as via extending non-parallel to the lateral elements 106 and 116.
[0048]Although the first frame section 102 and the second frame section 112 can be one-piece, such as unitary via molding, additive manufacturing, subtractive manufacturing, or any other suitable manner, the first frame section 102 and the second frame section 112 can also be assembled with each other, such as via the inner longitudinal element 104 and the inner longitudinal element 114 coupling to each other. Such assembly can be via any manner of coupling, such as fastening, mating, interlocking, adhering, clamping, bracketing, tying, or any other suitable manner.
[0049]The first frame section 102 and the second frame section 112 define a platform frame along a horizontal plane when the inner longitudinal element 104 and the inner longitudinal element 114 are adjacent, such as immediately, to each other and when the bore 110 and the bore 120 align, whether along a horizontal or a diagonal plane. Based on such positioning, a platform frame spine is formed via the inner longitudinal element 104 and the inner longitudinal element 114. Alternatively, the inner longitudinal element 104 and the inner longitudinal element 114 can be one element, which is then the platform frame spine.
[0050]As shown in FIG. 1, the inner longitudinal element 104 and the inner longitudinal element 114 are coupled to each other via fastening with a set of fasteners 124 through a set of bores 122, whether perpendicular or non-perpendicular to at least one of the inner longitudinal element 104 or the inner longitudinal element 114. Each of the inner longitudinal element 104 and the inner longitudinal element 114 contains the set of bores 122. The sets of bores 122 are complementary to each other, such as at least one of the bores 122 in the inner longitudinal element 104 corresponds to at least one of the bores 122 in the inner longitudinal element 114. Such complementation can be via bore alignment, such as via opposing each other, while extending parallel to the lateral elements 106 and 116. However, note that such alignment can also be offset, such as via extending non-parallel to the lateral elements 106 and 116. The set of fasteners 124 comprises a at least one of a screw or a bolt. Note that nuts can be used to thread onto the set of fasteners 124 to further secure the inner longitudinal element 104 and the inner longitudinal element 114. For example, at least one of the nuts can include a torus-shaped nut or a wing nut. Alternatively, a set of pegs or maters can be used to couple the inner longitudinal element 104 to the inner longitudinal element 114.
[0051]The bed frame 100 also includes a leg portion 126, which can be solid or hollow internally. The leg portion 126 can be of any cross-section. From a side view, such as a left side view or a right side view, the leg portion 126 is shaped as a trapezoid. However, note that the leg portion 126 can also be shaped differently from a side view, whether in an open shape or a closed shape. For example, the leg portion 126 can be shaped as an arc, a triangle, a square, a rectangle, a star, a pentagon, a hexagon, an octagon, or any other shape or polygon. From at least one of a front view or a back view, the leg portion 126 can be shaped as a square, a trapezoid, an arc, a triangle, a rectangle, a star, a pentagon, a hexagon, an octagon, or any other shape or polygon. The leg portion 126 can contain at least one of metal, wood, plastic, rubber, glass, stone, or another suitable material. The leg portion 126 can be one-piece, such as unitary, or an assembly. The leg portion 126 extends rectilinearly along a longitudinal axis, but can extend in other manners, such as sinusoidal, arcuate, pulse-shaped, zigzag, or any other manner. The leg portion 126 extends rectilinearly along a vertical axis, but can extend in other manners, such as sinusoidal, arcuate, pulse-shaped, zigzag, or any other manner
[0052]A support or reinforcement column 128 extends within the leg portion 126 to bolster support. The column 128 can be hollow or solid internally. The column 128 can be one-piece, such as unitary, or an assembly. The column 128 can be one-piece, such as unitary, with the leg portion 126 or an assembly with the leg portion 126. The column 128 can contain at least one of metal, wood, plastic, rubber, glass, stone, or another suitable material. The column 128 extends rectilinearly, but can extend in other manners, such as sinusoidal, arcuate, pulse-shaped, zigzag, or any other manner. The column 128 spans between a lower longitudinal portion of the leg portion 126 and an upper longitudinal portion of the leg portion 126. The column 128 is positioned such that a plurality of openings 130, 132 are defined, which can be identical or different from each other in shape or size. Although such positioning is perpendicular to the lower longitudinal portion of the leg portion 126 and the upper longitudinal portion of the leg portion 126, other angle configurations are possible, such as acute or obtuse. Note that the openings 130, 132 are shaped based on how the column 128 is angled. Alternatively, the column 128 can be lacking and a single opening within the leg portion 126 exists, which includes the openings 130, 132. Also, the column 128 can be lacking and the leg portion 126 is solid, with no openings 130, 132. Also, the column 128 can be replaced with a bridge spanning longitudinally across the leg portion 128 to bolster support. Further, more than one column 128 can be used to even further bolster support.
[0053]The leg portion 126 can include at least one of a mesh, a net, or a lattice coupled or unitary thereto. At least one of the mesh, the net, or the lattice can contain at least one of metal, wood, plastic, rubber, glass, stone, cloth, fabric, fiber, or another suitable material. At least one of the mesh, the net, or the lattice can cover openings 130, 132 from the lower longitudinal portion of the leg portion 126 and the upper longitudinal portion of the leg portion 126.
[0054]The platform frame, as described above, and the leg portion 126 are in a T-shaped relationship with each other, where the platform frame is a platform of the T-shape and the leg portion 126 is a leg of the T-shape. For example, the platform frame and the leg portion 126 are substantially perpendicular to each other, such as about ninety (90) degrees. However, note that other embodiments are foreseeable where such angling is different, whether obtuse or acute.
[0055]Based on the T-shaped relationship, the first frame section 102 and the leg portion 126 are in an L-shape relationship with each other, where the first frame section 102 is a base of the L-shape and the leg portion 126 is a column of the L-shape. Similarly, the second frame section 112 and the leg portion 126 are in an L-shape relationship with each other, where the second frame section 112 is a base of the L-shape and the leg portion 126 is a column of the L-shape.
[0056]Although the platform frame and the leg portion 126 can be one-piece, such as unitary via molding, additive manufacturing, subtractive manufacturing, or any other suitable manner, the platform frame and the leg portion 126 can also be assembled with each other, such as via the platform frame and the leg portion 126 coupling to each other. Such assembly can be via any manner of coupling, such as fastening, mating, interlocking, adhering, clamping, bracketing, tying, or any other suitable manner. For example, whether as one-piece or as an assembly, the platform frame and the leg portion 126 are in the T-shaped relationship based on the platform frame spine extending from the leg portion 126.
[0057]As shown in FIG. 1, the platform frame, which is defined via the first frame section 102 and the second frame section 112, and the leg portion 126 can be assembled to be in the T-shaped relationship based on the platform frame spine, which is defined via the inner longitudinal element 104 and the inner longitudinal element 114, securely contacting the leg portion 126. Such secure contact is enabled via a plurality of fasteners 134, 136 fastening through the upper longitudinal portion of the leg portion 126 into the platform frame spine, whether perpendicular or non-perpendicular to at least one of the inner longitudinal element 104 or the inner longitudinal element 114. For example, at least one of the fasteners can comprise a screw or a bolt. Note that such fastening can be into any portion of the platform frame spine, such as at least one of the inner longitudinal element 104 or the inner longitudinal element 114. Also, note that nuts can be used to thread onto the fasteners 134, 136 to further secure the platform frame spine to the leg portion 126. For example, at least one of the nuts can include a torus-shaped nut or a wing nut. Alternatively, a set of pegs or maters can be used to couple the platform frame spine to the leg portion 126.
[0058]A U-shaped bracket 137 is defined via a base and a pair of walls extending from the base, whether perpendicularly or non-perpendicularly. The base defines one or more bores which is circular in shape and threaded, but can be at least one of non-circular or non-threaded. The one or more bores extend fully through the base. The base is solid, but can be slotted or perforated.
[0059]In the bracket 137, each of the walls defines a plurality of U-shaped slots along a longitudinal plane, whether identical to or different from each other in shape or size. Alternatively, at least one of the U-shaped slots can be defined via the base and two adjacent wall portions on one side of the base, such as when the two adjacent wall portions are aligned along a longitudinal plane of the base. For each respective wall, the slots are structured to receive the lateral elements 106 or 116, while the longitudinal elements 104 and 114 are positioned adjacent to each other between the walls and above the base. In other embodiments, the slots are not U-shaped, such as O-shaped or D-shaped.
[0060]The bed frame 100 can also include a headboard frame 138. The headboard frame 138 is defined via a plurality of longitudinal elements 140, a lateral element 142, a plurality of lateral units 144, 146, a headboard frame spine 148, and a U-shaped member 156. For example, the headboard frame 138 is inclined from about 90 degrees to about 180 degrees with respect to the platform frame. Preferably, such inclination is from about 110 degrees to about 160 degrees.
[0061]At least one of the longitudinal elements 140 can be a beam, a shaft, or a bar of any cross section, whether solid or hollow internally, whether one-piece or an assembly. At least one of the longitudinal elements 140 contains at least one of metal, wood, plastic, rubber, glass, stone, or another suitable material. The longitudinal elements 140 extend in parallel to each other, but can be non-parallel as well, whether converging or diverging. At least one of the longitudinal elements 140 extends rectilinearly, but can extend in other manners, such as sinusoidal, arcuate, pulse-shaped, zigzag, or any other manner. The longitudinal elements 140 can be configured identical to or different from each other in any manner, whether in whole or in part, whether in structure, shape, function, material, size, component, or any other aspect.
[0062]The lateral element 142 can be a beam, a shaft, or a bar of any cross section, whether solid or hollow internally, whether one-piece or an assembly. The lateral element 142 contains at least one of metal, wood, plastic, rubber, glass, stone, or another suitable material. The lateral element 142 extends rectilinearly, but can extend in other manners, such as sinusoidal, arcuate, pulse-shaped, zigzag, or any other manner. The lateral element 142 spans between the longitudinal elements 140 such that a U-shape a defined thereby. Alternatively, a C-shape can be defined thereby. Alternatively, the lateral element 142 is lacking and the longitudinal elements 140 extend from each other such that a V-shape is defined thereby. Alternatively, the longitudinal elements 140 extend from each other such that a portion of a Y-shape is defined thereby, with a leg of the Y-shape extending from a meeting point of the longitudinal elements 140. The lateral element 142 is perpendicular to the longitudinal elements 140. Alternatively, the lateral element 142 is non-perpendicular to at least one of the longitudinal elements 140, whether obtusely or acutely angled. The lateral element 142 can be one-piece with at least one of the longitudinal elements 140 or be assembled therewith.
[0063]At least one of the lateral units 144, 146 can be a beam, a shaft, or a bar of any cross section, whether solid or hollow internally, whether one-piece or an assembly. At least one of the lateral units 144, 146 contains at least one of metal, wood, plastic, rubber, glass, stone, or another suitable material. At least one of the lateral units 144, 146 extends rectilinearly, but can extend in other manners, such as sinusoidal, arcuate, pulse-shaped, zigzag, or any other manner. The lateral units 144, 146 extend toward each other from the longitudinal elements 140. Such extension is perpendicular such that the respective lateral units 144, 146 and the respective longitudinal elements 140 are in respective L-shaped relationships with each other. However, note that such extension can also be non-perpendicular, whether acutely or obtusely angled. The lateral units 144, 146 extend parallel to the lateral element 142, but non-parallel extension for at least one of the lateral units 144, 146 is possible. At least one of the lateral units 144, 146 can be one-piece with at least one of the longitudinal elements 140 or be assembled therewith. Note that at least one longitudinal element 140 can span between at least one of the lateral units 144, 146 and the lateral element 142, whether parallel or non-parallel to at least one of the one longitudinal elements 140.
[0064]The headboard frame spine 148 can be a beam, a shaft, or a bar of any cross section, whether solid or hollow internally, whether one-piece or an assembly. The headboard frame spine 148 contains at least one of metal, wood, plastic, rubber, glass, stone, or another suitable material. The headboard frame spine 148 extends in parallel to the longitudinal elements 140 such that the longitudinal elements 140 and the headboard frame spine 148 are E-shaped. However, note that non-parallel extension is possible, whether converging or diverging. The headboard frame spine 148 can be one-piece with at least one of the longitudinal elements 140 or be assembled therewith
[0065]The U-shaped member 156 can be a beam, a shaft, or a bar of any cross section, whether solid or hollow internally, whether one-piece or an assembly.
