Referring to FIG. 1 through FIG. 4 , the present invention discloses a headboard 1. The headboard 1 comprises a soft cushion 11 and a cloth cover 12. The soft cushion 11 is placed inside the cloth cover 12. When in use, the headboard 1 cooperates with one end of a bed body 2. The bed body 2 is located in front of a fixed surface 3. The headboard 1 is movably arranged on the fixed surface 3 and located at one end of the bed body 2 to form an end soft cushion.
The fixed surface 3 is a wall. The bed body 2 is located in front of the wall. The bed body 2 may include a mattress 22 placed on a bed frame 21. The soft cushion 11 in the headboard 1 can be rolled up when not in use. The soft cushion 11 may be a sponge cushion. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 2 , the soft cushion 11 is a square cushion. The soft cushion 11 may be designed in different shapes and sizes according to different use requirements. The cloth cover 12 corresponds in shape to the soft cushion 11. The style of the cloth cover can be customized. The cloth cover 12 has an opening 121 for the soft cushion 11 to be placed into the cloth cover 12. The opening 121 is provided with a covering portion 122. The covering portion 122 can be opened and closed relative to the cloth cover 12 through a zipper, so that the soft cushion 11 can be placed into the cloth cover 12 easily.
When the headboard 1 of the present invention is to be packaged and transported, the headboard 1 can be compressed and rolled up, as shown in FIG. 3 . The whole headboard 1 can be packaged to be small in size and light in weight, so that the cost of packaging and transportation can be reduced greatly. In use, after the headboard 1 is unfolded, the headboard 1 can be directly supported between the fixed surface 3 and the bed body 2, or can be detachably connected to the fixed surface 3, so as to form a headboard at one end of the bed body 2.
As shown in FIG. 4 , the headboard 1 is directly supported between the fixed surface 3 and the bed body 2, so as to secure the headboard 1. A space for the headboard 1 to be placed is defined between the bed body 2 and the fixing surface 3, so that the headboard 1 can be directly secured and supported at one end of the bed body 2.
Further, the bottom of the headboard 1 has at least two support feet 13 to increase the height of the headboard 1, so that the headboard 1 can match with the bed bodies 2 of different heights and provide a moisture resistance function. Besides, the volume of the headboard 1 can be appropriately reduced.
