In beds with a lifting mechanism, the frame is not attached to the frame firmly. It just lies on top. A lifting mechanism is attached to them. It can be of several varieties.

• Manual - the easiest. The master of the bed raises the frame with the mattress, and the loops hold it so that it does not slip from its place. This is the cheapest and simple mechanism.
• Spring is designed to help the springs installed in the mechanism. It is possible to adjust the mechanism depending on the weight of the part to be lifted. To raise the frame, you need to apply much less effort. Springs gradually stretch.
• The gas lift is the most modern and convenient mechanism. Here, the rise comes from the action of the spring-shock absorber, inside which there is gas. Practically no effort is required to raise or lower. The lack of a gas lift - it can not be regulated. If the weight of the sleeper on the bed has greatly increased, an orthopedic mattress has been installed on it, the old mechanism is removed and a new one is installed.
