Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein zusammenlegbares Stehpult gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to a collapsible standing desk according to the preamble of claim 1.

Eine länger andauernde sitzende Tätigkeit am Schreibtisch wird häufig als unangenehm empfunden und ist insbesondere auch aus gesundheitlichen Gründen nachteilig. Es ist daher von Vorteil, die sitzende Tätigkeit zeitweise durch eine stehende Arbeit an einem Stehpult zu unterbrechen. Ein zu diesem Zweck neben dem Schreibtisch aufgestelltes Stehpult nimmt zusätzlichen Platz weg. Es ist bekannt, das Stehpult zusammenlegbar auszubilden, so daß es platzsparend zusammengelegt und beiseite geräumt werden kann, wenn es nicht benötigt wird.Prolonged sitting work at the desk is often perceived as unpleasant and is particularly disadvantageous for health reasons. It is therefore advantageous to temporarily interrupt your sedentary work by standing at a standing desk. A standing desk next to the desk for this purpose takes up additional space. It is known to design the standing desk to be collapsible, so that it can be folded up to save space and cleared aside when it is not needed.

Ein Stehpult gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 ist aus der DE-C-59 420 bekannt. Die Pultplatte dieses Stehpultes ist ein Ausschnitt aus der Tischplatte eines Schreibtisches. Die die Pultplatte tragenden Holme sind in Führungen des Schreibtisches gelagert. Dadurch kann die Pultplatte in eine abgesenkte Lage gebracht werden, in welcher sie sich in die Tischplatte des Schreibtisches einfügt, und kann in eine angehobene durch die Holme gestützte Stellung zur Verwendung als Stehpult bewegt werden.A standing desk according to the preamble of claim 1 is known from DE-C-59 420. The desk top of this standing desk is a section of the table top of a desk. The spars carrying the desk top are mounted in guides on the desk. This allows the desk top in a can be brought into the lowered position, in which it fits into the table top of the desk, and can be moved into a raised position supported by the bars for use as a standing desk.

Dieses bekannte Stehpult kann zwar in einfacher Weise in die Betriebsstellung gebracht werden und ebenso beansprucht es keinen Platz, wenn es in die Tischplatte des Schreibtisches eingefügt ist. Einem schnellen und bequemen Wechsel zwischen sitzender Tätigkeit am Schreibtisch und stehender Tätigkeit am Stehpult steht jedoch entgegen, daß der die Pultplatte bildende Teil der Schreibtischplatte zunächst geräumt werden muß, um die Pultplatte in die hochgestellte Lage zur Benutzung als Stehpult zu bringen. Außerdem steht bei der Benutzung als Stehpult dementsprechend nicht mehr die gesamte Tischplatte des Schreibtisches als Ablagefläche zur Verfügung.This known standing desk can be brought into the operating position in a simple manner and it also does not take up any space when it is inserted into the table top of the desk. A quick and easy change between sitting at the desk and standing at the desk stands in the way of the fact that the part of the desk top that forms the desk top must first be cleared in order to bring the desk top into the raised position for use as a desk. In addition, when used as a standing desk, the entire tabletop of the desk is accordingly no longer available as a storage area.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein zusammenlegbares Stehpult zur Verfügung zu stellen, mit welchem ein vorhandener Schreibtisch in einfacher Weise ausgerüstet oder nachgerüstet werden kann, wobei das Stehpult in die Betriebsstellung gebracht und benutzt werden kann, ohne daß die Tischplatte des Schreibtisches beeinträchtigt wird.The invention has for its object to provide a collapsible standing desk with which an existing desk can be easily equipped or retrofitted, the standing desk can be brought into the operating position and used without the table top of the desk being affected.

Diese Aufgabe wird bei einem Stehpult gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 erfindungsgemäß gelöst durch die Merkmale des kennzeichnenden Teils des Patentanspruchs 1.This object is achieved according to the invention in a standing desk according to the preamble of claim 1 by the features of the characterizing part of patent claim 1.

Vorteilhafte Ausführungsformen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben.Advantageous embodiments of the invention are specified in the subclaims.

Das Stehpult wird im zusammengelegten Zustand in Führungen unter die Tischplatte des Schreibtisches geschoben und nimmt keinen Platz weg. Im Bedarfsfalle kann es mit einem einfachen Handgriff unter der Schreibtischplatte hervorgezogen und in seine Betriebsstellung gebracht werden, in welcher es über die Schreibtischplatte ragt. Es ist dazu nicht notwendig, die Schreibtischplatte abzuräumen, und die gesamte Fläche der Schreibtischplatte steht bei der Benutzung des Stehpultes als Ablagefläche zur Verfügung. Dadurch ist der Wechsel zwischen sitzender Tätigkeit am Schreibtisch und stehender Tätigkeit am Stehpult so einfach und bequem, daß dieser tatsächlich auch in gesundheitsfördender Weise häufig durchgeführt wird.In the folded state, the standing desk is pushed into guides under the table top of the desk and takes no place gone. If necessary, it can be pulled out from under the desk top with a simple movement and brought into its operating position, in which it protrudes over the desk top. It is not necessary to clear the desk, and the entire surface of the desk is available as a storage space when using the standing desk. As a result, the change between sitting at the desk and standing at the desk is so easy and convenient that it is often carried out in a health-promoting manner.

Das erfindungsgemäße Stehpult weist ein gesondertes Gestell auf, welches die Führungen trägt, in denen die Stehpultplatte mit den sie tragenden Holmen unter die Schreibtischplatte geschoben wird. Beim Nachrüsten eines vorhandenen Schreibtisches mit dem Stehpult müssen daher die Führungen nicht mehr mit dem Schreibtisch verschraubt werden. Es genügt, das die Führungen und die in diesen geführte Pultplatte tragende Gestell unter dem Schreibtisch anzuordnen.The standing desk according to the invention has a separate frame which carries the guides in which the standing desk top with the spars carrying it is pushed under the desk top. When retrofitting an existing desk with the standing desk, the guides no longer have to be screwed to the desk. It is sufficient to arrange the guides and the frame supporting them in the desk under the desk.

Das Gestell kann in einer Ausführungsform der Erfindung ein frei unter die Tischplatte des Schreibtisches stellbarer Bock sein, der einen ausreichenden Knieraum für den Benutzer des Schreibtisches frei läßt. In dieser Ausführungsform ist das Stehpult von dem Schreibtisch vollständig unabhängig, so daß keinerlei Befestigungsmaßnahmen notwendig sind. Das Stehpult kann auch jederzeit unter dem Schreibtisch herausgenommen und beispielsweise im Bedarfsfalle unter einen anderen Schreibtisch gestellt werden.The frame can be in one embodiment of the invention a stand that can be freely placed under the table top of the desk and that leaves sufficient knee space for the user of the desk. In this embodiment, the standing desk is completely independent of the desk, so that no fastening measures are necessary. The standing desk can also be removed from under the desk at any time and, if necessary, placed under another desk.

In einer zweiten Ausführungsform, die sich für Schreibtische mit zwei seitlichen Unterschränken eignet, weist das Gestell zwei zu den Führungen parallele Rahmenteile auf, die unterhalb der Tischplatte an den Seitenwänden der Unterschränke angesetzt werden. Die Rahmenteile sind durch eine Traverse miteinander verbunden, die längenverstellbar ist, um die Rahmenteile auseinanderzuspreizen und dadurch das Gestell zwischen den Unterschränken zu verspannen. Diese Ausführungsform hat den Vorteil, daß das Gestell keine Füße aufweist und damit praktisch vollständig unsichtbar unter der Tischplatte angebracht werden kann.In a second embodiment, which is suitable for desks with two side base cabinets, the frame has two frame parts parallel to the guides, which are attached to the side walls of the base cabinets below the table top. The frame parts are connected to each other by a crossbar that is adjustable in length in order to spread the frame parts apart and thereby clamp the frame between the base cabinets. This embodiment has the advantage that the frame has no feet and can therefore be attached practically completely invisibly under the table top.

Durch das Auseinanderspreizen der Rahmenteile kann das Gestell auch der unterschiedlichen lichten Weite zwischen den Unterschränken bei verschiedenen Schreibtischtypen angepaßt werden. Ist zur Anpassung an unterschiedliche Schreibtischtypen eine größere Verstellbarkeit des Abstandes zwischen den Rahmenteilen vorgesehen, so sind die die Pultplatte des Stehpultes tragenden vertikalen Holme mit einem längenverstellbaren Querteil versehen, daß dem unterschiedlichen Abstand der an den Rahmenteilen angebrachten Führungen angepaßt werden kann.By spreading the frame parts apart, the frame can also be adapted to the different clear widths between the base cabinets for different desk types. If a greater adjustability of the distance between the frame parts is provided for adaptation to different desk types, then the vertical spars which support the desk top of the standing desk are provided with a length-adjustable cross part, that the different distance the guides attached to the frame parts can be adapted.

Weist der Schreibtisch keine Unterschränke auf, so kann gemäß einer weiteren Ausführungsform das Gestell zwischen dem Fußboden und der Tischplatte des Schreibtisches verspannt werden. Die zwei die Führungen tragenden Rahmenteile werden hierzu mittels höhenverstellbarer Füße von unten gegen die Tischplatte gepreßt, so daß das Gestell stabil an dem Schreibtisch festgelegt ist. Da die Rahmenteile zur Befestigung der Führungen eine gewisse Ausdehnung in Richtung der Führungen aufweisen, genügt in der Regel ein einziger Fuß zum Verspannen jedes Rahmenteiles. Um die Füße und damit das Gestell gegen ein Verkippen quer zu den Führungen zu sichern, können die Rahmenteile auch in dieser Ausführungsform durch eine Traverse miteinander verbunden sein, die selbstverständlich nicht längenverstellbar sein muß. Weisen die Rahmenteile selbst eine ausreichende Ausdehnung quer zu den Führungen auf, indem sie z. B. als rechteckige Platten ausgebildet sind, so geben sie bereits selbst eine ausreichende Abstützung der Füße gegen ein Verkippen, so daß eine die Rahmenteile verbindende Traverse nicht nötig ist.If the desk has no base cabinets, then according to a further embodiment the frame can be clamped between the floor and the table top of the desk. For this purpose, the two frame parts carrying the guides are pressed against the table top from below by means of height-adjustable feet, so that the frame is firmly attached to the desk. Since the frame parts for fastening the guides have a certain extent in the direction of the guides, a single foot is usually sufficient for bracing each frame part. In order to secure the feet and thus the frame against tilting transversely to the guides, the frame parts can also be connected to one another in this embodiment by means of a traverse, which of course does not have to be adjustable in length. Have the frame parts themselves a sufficient extent transversely to the guides by z. B. are designed as rectangular plates, so they give themselves sufficient support of the feet against tilting, so that a cross member connecting the frame parts is not necessary.

Bei Schreibtischen mit nur einem seitlichen Unterschrank ist auch eine Ausführung möglich, bei welcher ein Rahmenteil mittels eines höhenverstellbaren Fußes zwischen dem Fußboden und der Tischplatte verspannt wird, während das andere Rahmenteil durch eine längenverstellbare Traverse seitlich gegen den Unterschrank verspannt wird.For desks with only one side base cabinet, a version is also possible in which one frame part is clamped between the floor and the table top by means of a height-adjustable foot, while the other frame part is fixed laterally against the base cabinet by means of a length-adjustable crossbar is tensioned.

Bei den Ausführungsformen, bei welchen die Rahmenteile gegen Unterschränke oder gegen die Tischplatte verspannt werden, ist vorzugsweise eine adhäsive Lage zwischen den Rahmenteilen und den Unterschränken bzw. der Tischplatte vorgesehen. Diese adhäsive Lage kann durch eine Kunststoffbeschichtung der entsprechenden Flächen der Rahmenteile, durch vorzugsweise selbstklebende gummiartige Platten oder sonstige bekannte Mittel gebildet werden. Die adhäsive Lage begünstigt eine zuverlässige Fixierung der Rahmenteile an dem Schreibtisch, ohne daß große Andruckkräfte für die Verspannung notwendig sind. Insbesondere in den Ausführungsformen, bei welchen das Gestell Füße aufweist, werden die bei der Benutzung auf das Stehpult einwirkenden Kräfte nahezu vollständig auf die Füße des Gestells übertragen, so daß die Fixierung der Rahmenteile an dem Schreibtisch nur geringe Verschiebekräfte beim Ausziehen und Einschieben des zusammengeklappten Stehpults aufnehmen muß. Diese geringen Verschiebekräfte kann die adhäsive Lage auch bei nur leichtem Anpreßdruck der Rahmenteile zuverlässig aufnehmen.In the embodiments in which the frame parts are braced against base cabinets or against the table top, an adhesive layer is preferably provided between the frame parts and the base cabinets or the table top. This adhesive layer can be formed by a plastic coating of the corresponding surfaces of the frame parts, by preferably self-adhesive rubber-like plates or other known means. The adhesive position favors a reliable fixation of the frame parts on the desk without large pressure forces being necessary for the bracing. In particular, in the embodiments in which the frame has feet, the forces acting on the standing desk during use are almost completely transmitted to the feet of the frame, so that the fixing of the frame parts to the desk only slight displacement forces when pulling out and pushing in the folded standing desk must record. These low displacement forces can reliably absorb the adhesive layer even with only slight contact pressure on the frame parts.

Weisen die Rahmenteile eine ausreichende Länge in Richtung der Führungen auf, so können die Führungen ggf. auch in den Rahmenteilen selbst ausgebildet sein. Vorzugsweise sind die Führungen Teleskopschienen, in denen Laufschienen gelagert sind, an denen schwenkbar die vertikalen Holme des Stehpultes befestigt sind. Weisen die Teleskopschienen eine ausreichende Eigensteifigkeit auf, so können auch die Teleskopschienen selbst als Rahmenteile verwendet werden. Aus Gründen der Stabilität wird das Gestell in der Regel jedoch z. B. aus Rechteckstahlrohr hergestellt, wobei handelsübliche Teleskopschienen an den Rahmenteilen angebracht werden.If the frame parts have a sufficient length in the direction of the guides, the guides can, if appropriate, also be formed in the frame parts themselves. The guides are preferably telescopic rails, in which running rails are mounted, on which the vertical bars of the standing desk are pivotably attached. If the telescopic rails have sufficient inherent rigidity, they can also Telescopic rails themselves can be used as frame parts. For reasons of stability, the frame is usually z. B. made of rectangular steel tube, with commercially available telescopic rails are attached to the frame parts.

Das in den verschiedenen Ausführungsformen dargestellte Stehpult ist zur Nachrüstung eines herkömmlichen Schreibtisches vorgesehen, der eine Tischplatte 10 und ggf. seitliche Unterschränke 12 aufweist.That shown in the various embodiments A standing desk is provided for retrofitting a conventional desk, which has a table top 10 and, if necessary, side base cabinets 12.

Das Stehpult weist eine Pultplatte 14 auf, die von vertikalen Holmen 16 getragen wird. Die Holme 16 sind an Laufschienen 18 schwenkbar befestigt. Die Laufschienen 18 sind mittels Wälzkörpern gelagert in Teleskopschienen 20 verschiebbar geführt. Die Teleskopschienen 20 sind in später beschriebener Weise an der Unterseite der Tischplatte 10 beiderseits des Knieraumes des Schreibtisches angeordnet.The standing desk has a desk top 14 which is supported by vertical bars 16. The spars 16 are pivotally attached to rails 18. The running rails 18 are guided in telescopic rails 20 by means of rolling elements. The telescopic rails 20 are arranged in a manner described later on the underside of the table top 10 on both sides of the knee space of the desk.

In der in der Zeichnung dargestellten Stellung ist das Stehpult zusammengelegt und in seine Ruhestellung unter die Tischplatte 10 des Schreibtisches geschoben. Die Laufschienen 18 befinden sich dabei am hinteren, von dem Benutzer des Schreibtisches abgekehrten Ende der Teleskopschienen 20. Die Holme 16 fluchten mit den Laufschienen und ebenso ist die Pultplatte 14 mit den Holmen 16 fluchtend ausgerichtet, so daß sie unter der Tischplatte 10 und parallel zu dieser gehalten wird. Die Pultplatte 14 liegt dabei auf nicht dargestellten Auflagen auf. Befindet sich das Stehpult in dieser Ruhestellung, so kann der Schreibtisch in herkömmlicher Weise benutzt werden.In the position shown in the drawing, the standing desk is folded and pushed into its rest position under the table top 10 of the desk. The rails 18 are located on the rear end of the telescopic rails 20 facing away from the user of the desk. The bars 16 are aligned with the rails and likewise the desk top 14 is aligned with the bars 16 so that they are under the table top 10 and parallel to this is held. The desk plate 14 rests on supports, not shown. If the standing desk is in this rest position, the desk can be used in a conventional manner.

Um das Stehpult alternativ zu dem Schreibtisch zu benutzen, wird es unter der Tischplatte 10 hervorgezogen, wobei die Laufschienen 18 in den Teleskopschienen 20 nach vorn auf den Benutzer zulaufen. Befinden sich die Laufschienen 18 am vorderen Ende der Teleskopschienen 20, so können die Holme 16 in ihre vertikale Stellung geschwenkt werden und die Pultplatte 14 wird gegen die Holme 16 in eine schräg geneigte Stellung gekippt, in welcher sie über die Tischplatte 10 des Schreibtisches ragt. Es kann nun an dem Stehpult gearbeitet werden, ohne daß die Tischplatte 10 abgeräumt werden muß. Um wieder an dem Schreibtisch arbeiten zu können, wird das Stehpult umgekehrt wieder unter die Tischplatte 10 in die in der Zeichnung dargestellte Ruhestellung geschoben.In order to use the standing desk as an alternative to the desk, it is pulled out from under the table top 10, with the running rails 18 running forward in the telescopic rails 20 towards the user. Are located the rails 18 at the front end of the telescopic rails 20, the spars 16 can be pivoted into their vertical position and the desk plate 14 is tilted against the spars 16 in an obliquely inclined position in which it projects over the table top 10 of the desk. It is now possible to work on the standing desk without having to clear the table top 10. In order to be able to work at the desk again, the standing desk is pushed back under the table top 10 into the rest position shown in the drawing.

Die nachfolgend beschriebenen unterschiedlichen Ausführungsformen betreffen die Befestigung der Führungen unter dem Schreibtisch. Die Pultplatte und die sie tragenden Holme könne dabei in unterschiedlicher Weise ausgebildet sein.The different embodiments described below relate to the fastening of the guides under the desk. The desk top and the spars carrying it can be designed in different ways.

In dem in den Figuren 1 und 2 dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel sind die als Führungen dienenden Teleskopschienen 20 an einem Gestell befestigt, welches als freistehender Bock ausgebildet ist. Der Bock weist zwei horizontale Rahmenteile 22 auf, die jeweils von zwei Füßen 24 getragen werden und durch eine Traverse 26 miteinander verbunden sind. Der Bock ist insgesamt aus Rechteckstahlrohr hergestellt. Die Teleskopschienen 20 sind unterhalb der Traverse 26 an dem Bock befestigt.In the embodiment shown in Figures 1 and 2, the telescopic rails 20 serving as guides are attached to a frame which is designed as a free-standing trestle. The trestle has two horizontal frame parts 22, each of which is supported by two feet 24 and are connected to one another by a cross member 26. The trestle is made entirely of rectangular steel tubing. The telescopic rails 20 are attached to the trestle below the cross member 26.

Die Abmessungen des Bockes sind so gewählt, daß die Rahmenteile 22 und die Traverse 26 sich unmittelbar unter der Tischplatte 10 befinden und daß die Rahmenteile 22 und die Füße 24 sich seitlich unmittelbar an den Unterschränken 12 befinden. Auf diese Weise schränkt der Bock mit dem Stehpult den freien Knieraum des Benutzers des Schreibtisches nicht wesentlich ein. Da der Bock freistehend ausgebildet ist, kann er unter jeden beliebigen Schreibtisch gestellt werden, dessen Abmessung nicht wesentlich von den Normabmessungen abweichen. Selbstverständlich kann der Bock auch unter einem Schreibtisch ohne Unterschränke 12 gestellt werden.The dimensions of the trestle are chosen so that the frame parts 22 and the cross member 26 are immediate are under the table top 10 and that the frame parts 22 and the feet 24 are located directly on the side of the base cabinets 12. In this way, the trestle with the standing desk does not significantly restrict the free knee space of the user of the desk. Since the trestle is free-standing, it can be placed under any desk, the dimensions of which do not differ significantly from the standard dimensions. Of course, the trestle can also be placed under a desk without base cabinets 12.

Die Traverse 26 kann auch unterhalb der Teleskopschienen 20 angeordnet sein, was den Vorteil hat, daß die eingeschobene Pultplatte 14 sich näher an der Tischplatte 10 befindet und somit weniger sichtbar ist und den freien Knieraum weniger beeinträchtigt.The cross member 26 can also be arranged below the telescopic rails 20, which has the advantage that the inserted desk top 14 is closer to the table top 10 and is therefore less visible and less affects the free knee space.

Das Ausführungsbeispiel der Figuren 3 und 4 eignet sich nur für einen Schreibtisch mit Unterschränken 12.The exemplary embodiment in FIGS. 3 and 4 is only suitable for a desk with base cabinets 12.

Das Gestell besteht in diesem Ausführungsbeispiel aus zwei Rahmenteilen 28, die durch eine Traverse 30 miteinander verbunden sind. Die Traverse 30 ist mittels einer geeigneten Einrichtung, z. B. einer Schraubverstellung 32, längenveränderlich. Die Rahmenteile 28 werden unter der Tischplatte 10 seitlich an die Unterschränke 12 angelegt und durch Längenverstellung der Traverse 30 auseinander gespreizt, so daß das Gestell sich zwischen den Unterschränken 12 verspannt. Durch die Längenverstellung der Traverse 30 kann das Gestell auf diese Weise auch unterschiedlichen lichten Weiten der Unterschränke 12 bei verschiedenen Schreibtischen angepaßt werden.In this exemplary embodiment, the frame consists of two frame parts 28 which are connected to one another by a cross member 30. The cross member 30 is by means of a suitable device, for. B. a screw adjustment 32, variable in length. The frame parts 28 are placed laterally under the table top 10 on the base cabinets 12 and spread apart by adjusting the length of the cross member 30, so that the frame is clamped between the base cabinets 12. By the length adjustment of the cross member 30, the frame can be adapted in this way to different clear widths of the base cabinets 12 in different desks.

Mit der Längenverstellung der Traverse 30 ändert sich auch der Abstand der an den Rahmenteilen 28 befestigten Teleskopschienen 20 sowie der in diesen geführten Laufschienen 18. Aus diesem Grund sind die die Pultplatte 14 tragenden Holme 16 nicht unmittelbar an den Laufschienen 18 angebracht, sondern über ein längenverstellbares Querteil 34 mit den Laufschienen 18 verbunden. Die Längenverstellung des Querteils 34 kann ebenfalls z. B. über Schraubverstellungen 36 erfolgen.With the length adjustment of the cross member 30, the distance between the telescopic rails 20 fastened to the frame parts 28 and the running rails 18 guided therein also changes. For this reason, the spars 16 carrying the desk plate 14 are not attached directly to the running rails 18, but via a length-adjustable one Cross member 34 connected to the rails 18. The length adjustment of the cross member 34 can also, for. B. via screw 36.

An den mit den Unterschränken 12 zur Anlage kommenden Außenflächen der Rahmenteile 28, die aus Rechteckstahlrohr bestehen, ist eine adhäsive Lage vorgesehen, z. B. in Form von ein- oder beidseitig selbstklebenden gummiartigen Platten. Durch diese adhäsive Lage wird eine zuverlässige Fixierung des Gestells gewährleistet.An adhesive layer is provided on the outer surfaces of the frame parts 28 which come into contact with the base cabinets 12 and which consist of rectangular steel tube, for. B. in the form of one or both sides self-adhesive rubber-like plates. This adhesive layer ensures reliable fixation of the frame.

Die Figuren 5 und 6 zeigen eine Ausführungsform, die auch bei Schreibtischen ohne Unterschränke oder mit nur einem Unterschrank verwendet werden kann.FIGS. 5 and 6 show an embodiment which can also be used on desks without base cabinets or with only one base cabinet.

Die Rahmenteile 38 sind als rechteckige Platten ausgebildet, die im wesentlichen mittig einen Fuß 40 aufweisen, der z. B. mittels einer Schraubverstellung 42 höhenverstellbar ist. Mittels der Höhenverstellung des Fußes 40 werden die Rahmenteile 38 gegen die Unterseite der Tischplatte 10 gedrückt und an dieser verspannt. Die Flächenausdehnung der Rahmenteile 38 bietet dabei eine ausreichende Abstützung des Fußes 40 gegen ein Verkippen. Ggf. können die Rahmenteile 38 auch zusätzlich durch eine nicht dargestellte Traverse verbunden werden. Die Teleskopschienen 20 sind an den Rahmenteilen 38 befestigt.The frame parts 38 are formed as rectangular plates which have a foot 40 substantially in the center, the z. B. is height adjustable by means of a screw adjustment 42. By means of the height adjustment of the Foot 40, the frame parts 38 are pressed against the underside of the table top 10 and braced thereon. The surface area of the frame parts 38 offers sufficient support for the foot 40 against tilting. Possibly. the frame parts 38 can also be additionally connected by a crossbar, not shown. The telescopic rails 20 are attached to the frame parts 38.

An der mit der Tischplatte 10 in Berührung kommenden oberen Fläche der Rahmenteile 38 ist eine adhäsive Lage z. B. in Form einer selbstklebenden gummiartigen Platte vorgesehen.On the top surface of the frame parts 38 coming into contact with the table top 10, an adhesive layer z. B. provided in the form of a self-adhesive rubber-like plate.
