Abstract:
A bed lift mechanism that has linkages and has an actuator connected structure that is movable from a non-actuated position to two or three actuated positions. One set of linkages lifts the bed frame with the actuator connected structure moved into an associated one of the actuated positions and then push another set of linkages as the actuator connected structure is moved into another of the actuated positions. In the case where there are three actuator positions, further linkages move down a bed frame slotted bracket to initially lift the bed frame and as they reach and end of the slotted bracket as the actuator connected structure is moved to a different actuator position, the one set of linkages pull together to lift the bed frame vertically.

Claim (Index 7):
The adjustable bed lift of  claim 1 , wherein the plurality of lift mechanisms include a first-stage lift mechanism having first-stage linkages and a second-stage lift mechanism having second-stage linkages;\n wherein the actuator connected structure that is configured to move from a non-actuated position to a first-stage actuated position and then to a second-stage actuated position in succession, wherein as the actuator connected structure moves from the non-actuated position to the first-stage actuated position, the first-stage linkages pivot about a first-stage lift pivot, which contacts the articulating portion to exert a lifting force on the articulating portion of the bed frame that widens an angle of inclination between the articulating portion and the fixed portion from lifting of the articulating portion as a consequence of the first-stage linkages pivoting, wherein as the actuator connected structure moves from the first-stage actuated position to the second-stage actuated position, the second-stage linkages pivot about a second-stage lift pivot, which contacts the articulating portion to exert a further lifting force on the articulating portion of the bed frame that further widens the angle of inclination between the articulating portion and the fixed portion from further lifting the articulating portion as a consequence of the second-stage linkages pivoting in a manner in which the second-stage lift pivot exerts the further lifting force, and wherein the first-stage lift pivot is completely out of contact with the articulating portion as the second-stage lift pivot contacts the articulating portion in a manner that further lifts the articulating portion.
