ABSTRACT:
A foundation for supporting a mattress is the subject of this invention. The foundation includes first and second side boards which present a mattress supporting surface and are adapted to be coupled with a head board and a foot board. A plurality of tenon and yoke assemblies are coupled with the side boards in spaced apart relationship along the length of the side boards; the assemblies on one side board being aligned with those on the other side board. A plurality of stretcher boards are adapted to be received by the tenon and yoke assemblies and include slots to accommodate relative movement between the stretcher boards and the side boards. Nut and bolt assemblies are provided for holding the stretcher boards rigid relative to the tenon and yoke assemblies. A single stretcher board can accommodate two or more different sizes of mattresses. Optional drawers may be provided in the side boards to occupy the space which would be consumed by a box springs in a conventional mattress construction. The foundation according to the invention can be shipped in a compact, unassembled form which saves shipping expense as well as warehousing space.
