Body of elastic material for mounting slats to the sides of a bed frame

Abstract

Abstract 1. A mounting member (1) comprising an elastic material for mounting spring bars (3) on the side member (11) of a bed frame, having a retaining projection (5) which can be fitted into a corresponding receiving opening (10) in the side member (11) and which co-operates with the receiving opening (10) so as to be firmly clamped therein in the position of use, characterised in that, in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the spring bar (3) to be fitted, the retaining projection (5) is provided with a longitudinal slot (6) which is of a substantially dovetail-shaped cross-section and with edge portions (12) which in the position of use are arranged above the frame members (11) and which extend outwardly towards the mounting member (1), wherein the wall thickness of the portions (7, 8, 12) of the retaining projection is only negligibly larger than the wall thickness of the other portions of the mounting member.
