ABSTRACT:
The bedstead storage box may be adapted as a bedstead for any regular-size bed, including king-size. It includes a shallow box to support the bed off the floor, a lid to carry a bed assembly including the springs, mattress and bedding, hinges to position the lid on the box and to serve as fulcrum when the lid is raised, gas springs disposed between the lid and box to counterbalance the weight of the load when opening the box, and a lock to secure the box in the closed position. If the bedstead storage box is to be situated with the hinged side adjacent to a wall, the use of an elevated hinge permits the bed to stand closely adjacent to that wall without interference when raising the lid.
