The Research On The Classification And Modular Design Of Bed In Our Country

The human has one-third time passed on the bed, which has close correlate with the human's life. The bed has a long history in China. It developed with society; the categories of bed are rich; the shapes and structures of bed are innumerable changes; and the materials made bed are diversiform; which fused culture art and the craft technology essence of all previous dynasties, and reflected the development level of science and technology in the field and the live and ideology of the people.With the improvement of the people's living, changes of the people's habit and the advancement and development of the society, the bed, including its shapes, functions, joint-ways, materials and so on, also changed with them. On the basis of Chinese traditional furniture development history which the predecessor summarized, the paper distills the development history of bed in China. It classifies beds into different styles systemically by different manners from different viewpoints. And it understands deeply the shape and structure characters and the materials of the beds. These will help to develop the visual field of designers and manufacturers, improve the level of bed design and manufacture, and advance the development of bed. It will help to guide the design and manufacture of bed and apply the modularization in order to reach the aim of realizing transform from standardization and series to diversification and individuation.With the speedup of the global integrative economy course, the competitive focus of the corporation fasten on how fleetly supply the diversiform products to customers. Furniture modularization is a new mode of manufacture, which can satisfy the personal demand of each customer at the cost of mass production processes. And it has drawn more intensive attention from industry, because it can both save the costs and satisfy the personal demand of each customer. Furniture Modular Design is the key of furniture modularization. The paper discusses the Bed Modular Design as the wooden bed. On the base of the concept of Bed Modular Design, it discusses the connection among standardization, series and Modular Design. It makes sure the bores, standardization, the generality of technique and the series of sizes. The paper divide the bed into 4modules, such as screen module, rest module, plank module and mattress. And the screen module also can be divided into frame component and decorating component. By forming module library, it can pick-up the modules and combine them quickly. By the way, it can enrich the products greatly. Finally, the author employs an example to explain the method and process of realizing the bed modular design. It is the emphases and innovation.
