Mounting holes configured for accommodating the horizontal connection rods are formed on each of the vertical support rods, the fasteners are usually screws or buckles, and the vertical support rods are fixedly connected to the horizontal connection rods by the screws or buckles. When mounting the inflatable bed, the plurality of horizontal connection rods are inserted into the mounting holes of the vertical support rods by users, and the plurality of horizontal connection rods and the plurality of vertical support rods are mounted sequentially and fixed by the screws or the buckles, to complete the installation of the bed frame. The inflatable mattress is then inflated. When the inflatable mattress is in the expansion state suitable for sleeping, it is mounted on the bed frame by the connectors.
In term of the above existing technology, during the installation process of the bed frame, the horizontal connection rods are engaged with the vertical support rods, and they are connected horizontally and vertically by turn and then fixed with each other by screws or buckles, by which the assembly and disassembly of the bed frame are time-consuming and labor-intensive, which affects the disassembly and assembly efficiency of bed frame.

In the above technical solution, the support pillars, which are located the outermost side in the array, are applied with force, so that the support pillars move departing from each other. The support pillars drive the corresponding connection rods to rotate during the moving process, such that the connection rods between two adjacent support pillars are rotated, and the connection rods drive the slidable component to slide along the support pillar, such that the slidable component moves towards the connection end. At the same time, the slidable component drives another connection rod, which is connected to the slidable component, to move, so a plurality of slidable components slide along different support pillars, respectively. The two adjacent support pillars move, until there is the maximum distance between them and the slidable component reaches the highest point, so the adjacent support pillars are supported by the connection rod, thereby achieving the quickly mount of the foldable bed frame.
