box spring
Bed frame support
A box spring is a bed foundation—a rectangular frame containing springs or a rigid support structure, designed to sit beneath a mattress.
It absorbs shock, provides ventilation, and raises the sleeping surface to a convenient height.
Box springs pair with innerspring mattresses; platform beds and memory foam mattresses often eliminate the need for one.
