Keep the Bed Frame, Upgrade the Backrest and Legs with an Electric Lift System

Replacing an entire nursing bed is not always the only way to add electric positioning functions. In some healthcare projects, the existing wooden or metal bed frame may be suitable for an independently manufactured electric adjustment platform.

The HEYUAN OEM 2-Function Electric Bed Lift System is designed for this type of equipment configuration. It combines an articulated steel support platform, electric backrest adjustment, electric leg elevation, linear actuators and a wired hand controller.

Unlike a complete electric hospital bed, this product is a bed conversion assembly intended to work with a compatible supporting frame. Its installation dimensions, mounting arrangement and structural requirements must therefore be evaluated before production.

For medical equipment distributors and nursing home project contractors, the most important purchasing questions concern the two electric movements, platform construction, actuator connections, electrical components and compatibility with the intended bed frame.

What Is Included in a Two-Function Electric Bed Lift System?

The two-function platform provides motorized adjustment of the upper and lower patient support sections.

Electric Backrest Adjustment

The upper section of the articulated platform rises or lowers through its designated electric drive mechanism.

Backrest Support Section

The upper platform supports a compatible mattress as it changes position within the manufacturer's approved adjustment range.

Powered Movement

An electric linear actuator supplies the force required by the designated positioning mechanism.

Electric Leg Elevation

The lower articulated section provides electrically operated leg adjustment.

Independent Positioning Function

The leg section is controlled separately from the backrest according to the manufacturer's operating system.

Lower-Platform Movement

The actual geometry determines which sections move and how the compatible mattress follows the adjustment.

Two Functions, Not Three

The referenced product confirms electric backrest and leg adjustment.

No Confirmed Overall Height Adjustment

The published configuration does not establish powered whole-bed lifting. Buyers requiring electric overall height adjustment should request a different approved configuration.

No Confirmed Turning Function

Electric left-right turning is also not part of the published specification for this particular two-function model.

How Does the Electric Platform Fit Inside an Existing Bed Frame?

Installation compatibility is a central consideration because the platform is supplied separately from the complete bed furniture.

Internal Frame Width

The existing bed must provide sufficient usable width for the electric support assembly.

Measure the Supporting Opening

Buyers should measure the internal dimensions of the intended frame, not simply its external width.

Internal Frame Length

The complete platform must fit the available support area without interference from the headboard, footboard or other fixed parts.

Check Both Ends

Clearance should be confirmed throughout the approved backrest and leg adjustment movements.

Structural Support Points

The electric platform requires an appropriate manufacturer-approved supporting and mounting arrangement.

Confirm Load Transfer

The original bed frame must be capable of supporting the complete assembly and its rated loads under the approved operating conditions.

Not a Universal Drop-In Component

A bed may have enough physical space for the platform but still lack suitable structural support or attachment points.

Installation Height

The new platform changes the position of the mattress support surface inside the existing frame.

Mattress Surface Height

The final sleeping surface height should be checked after the platform and specified mattress are installed.

What Does the Reinforced Steel Platform Support?

The HEYUAN system uses a reinforced steel structure designed for the approved electric positioning arrangement.

Articulated Support Sections

The upper and lower sections move through their designated mechanical connections.

Backrest Pivot Area

The backrest support structure must remain aligned with the approved drive linkage.

Leg Section Connection

The lower support sections require suitable hinges and connection points for the intended movement.

Steel Frame Construction

The manufacturer's product description identifies reinforced steel construction and welded structural components.

Material Dimensions

Tube size, steel thickness and surface treatment should be confirmed for the production model.

Rated Loading

The safe working load must be based on the complete approved arrangement rather than estimated from the appearance of the steel frame.

Compatibility with the Original Bed

The original furniture frame and electric platform work together after installation.

Combined Structural Assessment

Neither component should be treated as automatically suitable for a particular load without confirming the finished assembly.

How Do the Electric Linear Actuators Operate?

Electric linear actuators convert electrical power into controlled mechanical movement.

Backrest Actuation

The designated actuator operates the backrest adjustment through the manufacturer's specified linkage.

Movement Range

The maximum backrest angle should be obtained from the final model-specific technical specification.

Leg Section Actuation

The leg adjustment mechanism uses the appropriate powered drive arrangement.

Lower-Body Positioning

The moving sections should be demonstrated through the complete approved adjustment range.

Actuator Specifications

The published product description confirms electric linear actuators but does not identify their exact quantity, stroke or rated force.

Request Detailed Component Data

For an OEM project, buyers should confirm actuator quantity, voltage, stroke length, force rating, operating limits and replacement-part identification.

Maintenance Access

The actuators and connecting components should remain accessible according to the manufacturer's maintenance instructions.

Inspect Mounting Connections

Incorrectly installed pins, brackets or other components may affect the intended movement and safety of the assembly.

What Does the Wired Hand Controller Provide?

The HEYUAN two-function system includes a wired hand controller for its electric adjustments.

Backrest Controls

The designated buttons operate the backrest raising and lowering functions.

Separate Movement Commands

The user should be able to identify the intended operating control for each function.

Leg Controls

Additional controls operate the approved leg elevation and lowering functions.

Correct Function Identification

Buyers should inspect button labeling and the relationship between the handset commands and actual platform movement.

Control Cable Routing

The handset cable must remain correctly routed around the installed bed frame.

Avoid Moving Parts

Electrical cables should not become trapped between articulated sections or under the moving platform.

Control System Compatibility

The hand controller, actuator connections and corresponding electrical components must be specified as a compatible system.

Confirm Included Components

Purchasers should request an exact bill of materials showing the supplied control unit, power components, cables and actuators.

What Happens to the Mattress When the Platform Bends?

Adding an electric articulated platform changes how the mattress must respond during bed positioning.

Backrest Movement

The mattress must follow the upper platform within the manufacturer's approved range.

Mattress Flexibility

A mattress intended only for a rigid, flat surface may not be suitable for an electric adjustable platform.

Leg Elevation

The lower mattress area must also remain compatible with the intended leg section movement.

Section Alignment

The mattress construction and bending locations should correspond to the articulated platform geometry.

Existing Mattress Reuse

Keeping the original bed frame does not automatically mean that the original mattress remains suitable.

Confirm the Complete Combination

The manufacturer should assess the electric platform, mattress and original bed arrangement together.

How Should OEM Buyers Specify the System?

Medical equipment distributors and project contractors should provide the manufacturer with actual dimensions and configuration requirements.

Mechanical Requirements

1. Internal Bed Frame Dimensions

Provide usable length, width and supporting height measurements.

2. Supporting Frame Material

Identify whether the existing bed frame uses metal, wood or a combined structure.

3. Mounting Locations

Submit drawings or clear photographs showing the intended installation area and available support points.

4. Required Adjustment Angles

Confirm the backrest and leg positioning ranges required by the project.

5. Rated Load

Specify the necessary loading capacity and applicable project requirements.

Electrical Requirements

6. Destination-Market Power Supply

Confirm voltage, frequency, plug type and applicable electrical documentation.

7. Hand Controller Configuration

Define handset layout, labels, cable length and any approved control options.

8. Actuator and Electrical Components

Request the relevant drive-system specifications and compatible replacement-part details.

Commercial and Installation Requirements

9. Assembly and Installation Documents

Confirm that the final product is supplied with the necessary manufacturer-approved installation and operating guidance.

10. OEM Supply and Packaging

Approve required dimensions, surface finish, product labels, packaging method and order quantities.
