FOLDING BED FRAME

A bed frame that can be assembled without the use of tools. The bed frame can also be easily collapsed into a relatively compact package since the normal long side rails are comprised of two components that can be manipulated such that the two components can be in an end to end orientation when the side rails used in a bed frame or in a generally side by side orientation to facilitate shipping and storage. The cross rails can also be formed of two components that can be moved between an end to end orientation and a generally parallel orientation. A locking system locks certain of the components into a fixed position when in the end to end orientation.
