ABSTRACT:
A bed frame insert for attachment to a bed frame to allow a bed supported on the bed frame insert to be selectively positioned from a horizontal position to an inclined position. The bed frame insert includes a pair of side frame members for supporting the bed which are pivotably mountable to a first end of the bed frame. The bed frame insert also includes a forward cross frame member extending between the pair of side frame members, a mattress restraining member positioned on the bed frame insert proximate to the first end of the bed frame and at least two leg members adapted to incline the bed frame insert relative to the bed frame by pivoting the bed frame insert. To accommodate beds of different widths, the forward cross frame member and the mattress restraining member may be transversely adjustable. The mattress restraining member acts to prevent longitudinal movement of the mattress when the bed frame is in an inclined position. Moreover, the leg members may be adjustable to selectively adjust the angle of inclination of said bed frame insert relative to the bed frame. In addition, leg members may be provided with a leg collar which usable to prevent the bed frame from becoming elevated off the floor when the bed frame insert is used. Each of the side frame members may include a plurality of bed engaging members for engaging the bed supported on the bed frame insert to restrict lateral movement of the bed.
