Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen Bettunterbau gemäss Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 1.The present invention relates to a bed base according to Preamble of claim 1.

Um in jeder Lage komfortabel zu liegen, muss die Liegevorrichtung eine sich jeder Situation anpassende Stützfunktion ausüben. Konventionellen Betten weisen deshalb einen Lattenrost mit überhöhten, federnden Querlatten auf. Ferner wird bei konventionellen Betten besondere Beachtung dem Aufbau der auf diesen Lattenrost aufgelegte Matratze geschenkt.To lie comfortably in any position, the lying device must be a support function that adapts to every situation exercise. Conventional beds therefore have one Slatted frame with raised, springy crossbars. Further With conventional beds, special attention is paid to the structure the mattress placed on this slatted frame.

Des weiteren sind sogenannte Naturbetten bekannt, welche trotz der Verwendung von sehr dünnen Matratzen oder Futons eine optimale Stützwirkung aufweisen. Der Lattenrost der konventionellen Betten ist dabei ersetzt durch eine Vielzahl von Querlatten aus Massivholz, welche auf senkrecht zur ihrer Belastung federnden und somit als Federkörper wirkenden Längsholmen aufliegen.Furthermore, so-called natural beds are known despite the use of very thin mattresses or futons have an optimal support effect. The slatted frame of the conventional It is replaced by a variety of beds Crossbars made of solid wood, which are perpendicular to their Resilient load and thus acting as a spring body Longitudinal spars lie on.

So offenbart EP-A-0'116'237 eine Liegevorrichtung, welche aus zwei parallel zueinander angeordneten, aufblasbaren Längsholmen besteht, an welchen tangential und quer zur Längsrichtung eine Reihe von Taschen angebracht sind. In diese Taschen sind Querlatten eingeschoben, wobei je ein Ende einer Querlatte in einer der Längsholme und das andere Ende im anderen Längsholm gehalten ist. Dadurch entsteht ein Rost, welcher eine erhöhte Flexibilität aufweist. Die Fixierung der Querlatten bezüglich der Längsholmen wird im Falle, dass dieser Unterbau in einen Bettrahmen eingelegt ist, von dessen Seitenwänden übernommen. In einer anderen Variante ist eine jochartige Kontruktion vorhanden, welche von den Längsholmen durchsetzt ist und mit welcher die zwei Längsholme gegenseitig verstrebt werden. In diese jochartige Konstruktion wird ebenfalls eine Querlatte eingeschoben, um die Stabilität zu gewährleisten. Die Montage dieser Verstrebung ist relativ kompliziert und deshalb vom Kunden oft nicht selber durchführbar. Die Variante ohne Verstrebung ist jedoch instabil und vorallem, wenn der Bettunterbau beispielsweise im Verlaufe einer Hausreinigung verschoben oder aus dem Bettrahmen entfernt werden muss, ungeeignet.Thus EP-A-0'116'237 discloses a lying device which consists of two inflatable longitudinal spars arranged parallel to each other exists at which tangential and transverse to the longitudinal direction a number of pockets are attached. In these Bags are inserted crossbars, one end each Crossbar in one of the longitudinal spars and the other end in other longitudinal spar is held. This creates a rust, which has increased flexibility. The fixation of the Crossbars with respect to the longitudinal spars will in the event that this substructure is inserted into a bed frame, of which Side walls taken over. In another variant there is one yoke-like construction, which of the longitudinal spars is interspersed and with which the two longitudinal spars mutually be striven for. In this yoke-like construction a crossbar is also inserted to ensure stability to ensure. The assembly of this strut is relative complicated and therefore often not feasible by the customer. However, the variant without struts is unstable and especially if the bed base, for example, in the course moved to a house cleaning or out of the bed frame must be removed, unsuitable.

EP-A-0'243'383 beschreibt ebenfalls ein Naturbett mit zwei federnden, aus Schaumstoff oder Moosgummi gefertigten Längsholmen und einer Vielzahl von rostartig darüber angeordneten Querlatten. Die Querlatten sind über ein ganzflächiges Tuch miteinander verbunden, welches zugleich die Längsholme fixiert. Hierfür weist das Tuch an zwei gegenüberliegenden Längskanten quer zur Längsrichtung ausgerichtete Taschen auf, in welche wiederum die Enden der Querlatten gehalten sind. In einer Variante sind die Längsholme zwischen dem als Bespannung wirkendenm Tuch und den Querlatten angeordnet, in einer anderen Variante sind am Tuch Tunnelbahnen befestigt, in welche die Längsholme eingeschoben sind. Obwohl diese Konstruktion eine gute Stabilität gewährleistet, weist sie mehrere Nachteile auf. Einerseits wirkt das Tuch als Staubfänger. Andererseits wird die Belüftung des Bettes von der Unterseite her behindert und die Spannung des Tuches lässt mit der Zeit und dem Gebrauch nach und gefährdet so die Stabilität.EP-A-0'243'383 also describes a natural bed with two resilient, longitudinal spars made of foam or foam rubber and a plurality of rusted ones above it Crossbars. The crossbars are over an all-over cloth connected to each other, which is also the longitudinal spar fixed. For this, the cloth points to two opposite On the longitudinal edges of pockets aligned transversely to the longitudinal direction, in which the ends of the crossbars are held. In a variant are the longitudinal spars between the as Fabric and the crossbars arranged in another variant, tunnel tracks are attached to the cloth, into which the longitudinal spars are inserted. Although these Construction ensures good stability, it shows several disadvantages. On the one hand, the cloth acts as a dust catcher. On the other hand, the ventilation of the bed is affected by the Underside hindered and the tension of the cloth leaves with time and use and thus endangers the Stability.

In DE-A-39'33'816 ist eine ähnliche Konstruktion eines Bettunterbaus mit federnden Längsholmen aus Schaumstoff und damit verbundenen Querlatten aus Holz gezeigt. An den Längsholmen sind quer zur Längsrichtung verlaufende Schlaufen angebracht, durch welche die Enden der Querlatten geschoben sind. Um die Querlatten bezüglich der Längsholme zu fixieren, weisen die Querlatten Nuten zur Aufnahme der Schlaufen auf Die damit erreichte Stabilität genügt für den Transport oder bei allgemeiner starken Beanspruchung des Bettunterbaus jedoch nicht, da die Schlaufen sich verschieben und sich somit aus den Nuten entfernen können. Ferner bilden die Nuten Schwachstellen der Querlatten und somit potentielle Bruchstellen. Ferner wird das Material der Schlaufen im Bereich der Nuten stärker beansprucht, da es an den Kanten der Nuten reibt.In DE-A-39'33'816 a similar construction is one Bed base with resilient longitudinal spars made of foam and associated wooden crossbars shown. On the longitudinal spars are loops running transversely to the longitudinal direction attached through which the ends of the crossbars are pushed are. To fix the crossbars in relation to the longitudinal spars, the crossbars have grooves for receiving the loops The stability thus achieved is sufficient for transportation or for general heavy use of the bed base but not because the loops shift and shift can thus remove from the grooves. The grooves also form Weak points in the crossbars and thus potential break points. Furthermore, the material of the loops in the area of the grooves is more stressed because it is on the edges of the grooves rubs.

Es ist deshalb Aufgabe der Erfindung, einen Bettunterbau zu schaffen, welcher die obengenannten Nachteile behebt und welcher zudem kostengünstig herstellbar und einfach zusammensetzbar ist.It is therefore an object of the invention to provide a bed base create, which eliminates the disadvantages mentioned above and which is also inexpensive to manufacture and easy to assemble is.

Diese Aufgabe löst ein Bettunterbau mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruches 1.This task is solved by a bed base with the characteristics of Claim 1.

Im Gegensatz zu den Fixierungsarten des Standes der Technik werden nicht die Längsholme gegenseitig oder die Taschen an den Querlatten fixiert, sondern jeder Längsholm wird getrennt vom anderen an einzelnen Querlatten befestigt. Zudem wird durch diese Konstruktion mit minimalen Mitteln eine stabile und keiner Alterung unterworfene Fixierung der Querlatten und der Längsholme relativ zueinander gewährleistet.In contrast to the types of fixation of the prior art the longitudinal spars will not cross each other or the pockets the crossbar fixed, but each longitudinal spar is separated attached to individual crossbars by the other. In addition, a stable construction with minimal means and non-aging fixation of the crossbars and the longitudinal spars guaranteed relative to each other.

Es wird eine stabile Fixierung erreicht, ohne dass eine Bespannung über die gesamte Breite des Bettunterbaus notwendig wäre. Die Materialersparnis ist beträchtlich, wodurch die Herstellungskosten gesenkt werden.A stable fixation is achieved without a Covering over the entire width of the bed base necessary would. The material saving is considerable, which means manufacturing costs are reduced.

Da das Befestigungsband relativ kurz gewählt werden kann, ist: die Gefahr der Materialermüdung und somit der Verringerung der Stabilität behoben.Since the fastening strap can be chosen to be relatively short, the following is: the risk of material fatigue and thus reduction fixed stability.

Das Befestigungsband verläuft parallel zu den Querlatten und weist in einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform maximal die Breite einer einzelnen Querlatte auf. Dadurch ist es sehr diskret. angeordnet und stört das Erscheinungsbild nicht. Zudem sind keine wesentlich nach unten vorstehenden oder herunterhängenden Elemente vorhanden, welche als Staubfänger dienen könnten oder in welche beispielsweise beim Staubsaugen eingehängt werden könnte.The fastening tape runs parallel to the crossbars and has a maximum width in a preferred embodiment a single crossbar. This makes it very discreet. arranged and does not disturb the appearance. Also are none significantly protruding or drooping There are elements that could serve as dust catchers or hooked into which, for example, when vacuuming could be.

In den Figur 1 bis 5 ist ein erstes Ausführungsbeispiel des erfindungsgemässen Bettunterbaus dargestellt. Es umfasst, wie am besten in Figur 1 und 2 ersichtlich ist, im wesentlichen zwei beabstandet und parallel zueinander angeordnete, elastische oder federnde Längsholme 1 oder Federkörper und mehrere rostartig quer dazu angeordnete Querlatten 2, welche auf den Längsholmen 1 aufliegen und diese miteinander verbinden. Die Längsholme 1 sind aus einem elastomeren Material, vorzugsweise aus Latex, gefertigt und mit einer textilen Hülle, vorzugsweise Naturbaumwolle, versehen. Sie können einen beliebigen Querschnitt aufweisen, welcher wie beispielsweise hier dargestellt rechteckig sein kann. Er kann jedoch auch eine runde oder ovale Form aufweisen. Die Querlatten 2 bestehen vorzugsweise aus Massivholz, beispielsweise Eschenlatten, und weisen im allgemeinen eine Dicke von 4 bis 15 mm auf. Die Querlatten 2 sind mindestens annähernd plan.1 to 5 is a first embodiment of the Bed base structure according to the invention shown. It includes how best seen in Figures 1 and 2, essentially two spaced and parallel to each other, elastic or resilient longitudinal bars 1 or spring body and several rust-like transverse slats 2, which lie on the longitudinal spars 1 and connect them to each other. The longitudinal bars 1 are made of an elastomeric material, preferably made of latex, and with a textile Cover, preferably natural cotton. You can have any cross section, which like can be rectangular, for example, shown here. He can but also have a round or oval shape. The crossbars 2 are preferably made of solid wood, for example Ash slats, and generally have a thickness of 4 to 15 mm. The crossbars 2 are at least approximately flat.

An den Längsholmen 1 sind quer zur Längsrichtung ausgerichtete Taschen 3 angeordnet. In dieser Ausführungsform sind die Taschen 3 seitlich an den Längsholmen 1 angenäht, so dass sie eine seitliche Verlängerung bilden. Sie bestehen im allgemeinen ebenfalls aus einem textilen Material, insbesondere aus einem Gewebe aus reinen Naturfasern wie Hanf oder Baumwolle. In diese Taschen 3 sind die Enden der Querlatten 2 eingeschoben und darin gehalten, wobei ein aus den Taschen 3 herausragender Teil der Querlatten 2 auf den Längsholmen 1 aufliegt. Da die Taschen 3 einseitig an den Längsholmen 1 angebracht sind, ist an der gegenüberliegenden Seite des Längsholmens 1 ein in Längsrichtung verlaufendes Schlaufenband 4 befestigt, durch dessen Schlaufen die Querlatten 2 durchgeführt sind.On the longitudinal spars 1 are aligned transversely to the longitudinal direction Pockets 3 arranged. In this embodiment, the Pockets 3 sewn on to the side rails 1 so that they form a lateral extension. They generally exist also made of a textile material, in particular from a fabric made of pure natural fibers such as hemp or Cotton. The ends of the crossbars 2 are in these pockets 3 inserted and held therein, one from the pockets 3 outstanding part of the crossbars 2 on the longitudinal spars 1 lies on. Since the pockets 3 on one side on the longitudinal spars 1 are attached is on the opposite side of the Longitudinal bar 1 is a loop band running in the longitudinal direction 4 attached, through the loops of the crossbars 2nd are carried out.

Mit jedem Längsholmen 1 ist mindestens ein Befestigungsmittel. 5 verbunden, welches aus einem Verbindungsmittel und einem Befestigungsband 52 besteht, wie dies in den Figuren 3 und 5 ersichtlich ist. Das Befestigungsband 52 ist zum anderen Längsholmen 1 hin gerichtet und erstreckt sich quer zur Längsrichtung. Das Befestigungsband 52 ist ebenfalls bevorzugterweise aus einem textilen Material, wie beispielsweise aus gewobenen Naturtextilfasern, gefertigt. In einer anderen, hier nicht dargestellten Ausführungsform ist das Befestigungsband 52 direkt am Längsholmen 1 befestigt. Bevorzugterweise ist jedoch, wie hier dargestellt, ein Verbindungsmittel vorhanden, welches über eine Distanz von mindestens drei Querlatten wirksam ist und so die über das Befestigungsband wirkenden Zugkräfte auf diese Strecke verteilt. Das Verbindungsmittel besteht aus zwei in Längsrichtung beabstandet zueinander, an den Längsholmen 1 angebrachten Befestigungsschlaufen 50, welche aus Textilbändern, beispielsweise gewobener Baumwolle, gefertigt sind, und einem Verbindungsbolzen 51, welcher durch diese Befestigungsschlaufen 50 durchgeschoben ist. Das Befestigungsband 52 umschlingt den mittleren, zwischen den Befestigungsschlaufen 50 freiliegenden Bereich des Verbindungsbolzens 51. Durch diese Konstruktion ist die Herstellung und das Zusammensetzen des Befestigungsmittels vereinfacht. Zudem lässt sich das Befestigungsband 52 schmal gestalten, auch wenn Kräfteverteilung auf die Längsholme 1 über einen grösseren Bereich erfolgt. Die Breite des Befestigungsbandes 51 entspricht deshalb bevorzugterweise maximal der Breite einer Querlatte 2. Die Länge beträgt zwischen 8 bis 20 cm, bevorzugterweise circa 14 cm.With each longitudinal spar 1 there is at least one fastening means. 5 connected, which consists of a connecting means and a Fastening strap 52 exists, as is the case in FIGS. 3 and 5 can be seen. The fastening strap 52 is another Longitudinal spars 1 directed and extends transversely to Longitudinal direction. The fastening strap 52 is also preferably from a textile material such as made from woven natural textile fibers. In another, This is not the embodiment shown here Fastening strap 52 attached directly to the longitudinal spar 1. However, as shown here, is preferably a Lanyard available, which over a distance of is effective at least three crossbars and so that over the Fastening tape acting tensile forces on this route distributed. The lanyard consists of two in Longitudinally spaced from one another, on the longitudinal spars 1 attached fastening loops 50, which from Textile tapes, such as woven cotton, are made are, and a connecting bolt 51 which passes through this Fastening loops 50 is pushed through. The Fastening strap 52 wraps around the middle, between the Fastening loops 50 exposed area of the connecting bolt 51. This construction is the manufacture and simplifies the assembly of the fastener. In addition, the fastening strap 52 can be made narrow, even if the distribution of forces on the longitudinal spars 1 over one larger area. The width of the fastening tape 51 therefore preferably corresponds to a maximum of the width a crossbar 2. The length is between 8 to 20 cm, preferably about 14 cm.

Das Befestigungsband 52 weist ein Knopfloch auf, welches von einem an einer Querlatte 2 angebrachten Befestigungsknopf 20 durchsetzt ist. Dadurch wird das Befestigungsband 52 an der Querlatte 2 befestigt und jeder Längsholm 1 getrennt vom anderen Längsholmen bezüglich der Querlatten 2 fixiert.The fastening band 52 has a buttonhole, which of a fastening button 20 attached to a crossbar 2 is enforced. As a result, the fastening tape 52 on the Crossbar 2 attached and each longitudinal spar 1 separately from other longitudinal spars fixed with respect to the crossbars 2.

Der Befestigungsknopf 20 besteht, wie in Figur 4 dargestellt, bevorzugterweise aus einem in die Querlatte 2 getriebenen Holzdübel mit einem vorstehenden Kopf.The fastening button 20, as shown in FIG. 4, preferably from one driven into the crossbar 2 Wooden dowel with a protruding head.

Das Befestigungsband 52 und der Befestigungsknopf 20 sind auf der Unterseite des Bettunterbaus, also von der Liegefläche abgewandt, angeordnet. Bevorzugterweise sind an jedem Längsholmen 1 zwei oder mehr Befestigungsbänder 52 mit separaten Verbindungsmitteln beabstandet zueinander angeordnet, wobei. jedem Befestigungsband 52 ein eigener Befestigungsknopf 20 zugeordnet ist. Zudem existiert zu jedem Befestigungsband 52 ein benachbartes Befestigungsband des gegenüberliegenden Längsholmens 1, dessen zugehöriger Befestigungsknopf 20 auf derselben Querlatte 2 angebracht ist wie der Befestigungsknopf des ersten Befestigungsbandes.The fastening band 52 and the fastening button 20 are on the underside of the bed base, i.e. from the bed surface turned away, arranged. Preferably, longitudinal spars are on each 1 two or more fastening straps 52 with separate Connecting means spaced from each other, wherein. each fastening strap 52 has its own fastening button 20 assigned. There is also a fastening strap 52 an adjacent fastening strap of the opposite Longitudinal bar 1, the associated fastening button 20 on the same crossbar 2 is attached as the fastening button the first fastening tape.

In Figur 6 ist eine zweite Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemässen Bettunterbaus dargestellt. Es sind hier zwei Lattenroste vorhanden, welche durch ein Set von oberen Querlatten 2' und ein Set von unteren Querlatten 2 gebildet werden. Die oberen Querlatten 2' sind im allgemeinen dünner und somit flexibler ausgebildet als die unteren. Typische Dicken für die oberen Querlatten 2' sind 4-8 mm und für die unteren Querlatten 2 10-12 mm.
Es sind wiederum zwei elastische Längsholme 1 vorhanden, welche die Querlatten 2,2' miteinander verbinden. Die Längsholme 1 weisen hier einen L-förmigen Querschnitt auf und bilden so einen rechten Winkel. Die Taschen 3 zur Aufnahme der Enden der oberen Querlatten 2' sind an der Stirnfläche des kurzen Schenkels 12 angebracht, wobei sie auf der Stirnfläche aufliegen. Die oberen Querlatten 2' liegen somit auf der Stirnfläche des kurzen Schenkels 12 auf. Die unteren Querlatten 2 liegen auf der Innenseite des langen Schenkels 13 auf und durchsetzen den Längsholmen 1. In Figur 7 ist der Längsholmen 1 mit teilweise offenem Reissverschluss der Hülle 10 dargestellt. Wie in dieser Figur 7 ersichtlich ist, besteht der Längsholm 1 aus zwei übereinander angeordneten, von einer textilen Hülle 10 umgebenen Federkörperkernen 11, zwischen welchen die Enden der unteren Querlatten 2 geschoben sind. Auf der Innenseite des langen Schenkels 13 ist zudem ein Schlaufenband 4 befestigt, dessen Schlaufen von den unteren Querlatten 2 durchsetzt sind. FIG. 6 shows a second embodiment of the bed base structure according to the invention. There are two slatted frames here, which are formed by a set of upper crossbars 2 'and a set of lower crossbars 2. The upper crossbars 2 'are generally thinner and thus more flexible than the lower ones. Typical thicknesses for the upper crossbars 2 'are 4-8 mm and for the lower crossbars 2 10-12 mm.
There are in turn two elastic longitudinal bars 1 which connect the crossbars 2, 2 'to one another. The longitudinal spars 1 have an L-shaped cross section and thus form a right angle. The pockets 3 for receiving the ends of the upper crossbars 2 'are attached to the end face of the short leg 12, and they rest on the end face. The upper crossbars 2 'thus rest on the end face of the short leg 12. The lower crossbars 2 lie on the inside of the long leg 13 and penetrate the longitudinal spar 1. In FIG. 7, the longitudinal spar 1 is shown with the zipper 10 of the sheath 10 partially open. As can be seen in FIG. 7, the longitudinal spar 1 consists of two spring body cores 11 arranged one above the other and surrounded by a textile cover 10, between which the ends of the lower crossbars 2 are pushed. On the inside of the long leg 13, a loop band 4 is also attached, the loops of which are penetrated by the lower crossbars 2.

Durch diese Konstruktion ist die Montage und das Auswechseln der unteren Querlatten 2' erleichtert, da diese ohne Biegen aus dem Längsholm 1 herausgezogen werden können.This construction makes assembly and replacement of the lower crossbars 2 ', since these without bending can be pulled out of the longitudinal spar 1.

Das Befestigungsband 52 ist über das Verbindungsmittel an der Stirnfläche des langen Schenkels 13 befestigt. Die Befestigungsknöpfe 20 sind an der Unterseite mindestens einer unteren Querlatte 2 angebracht.The fastening band 52 is on the connecting means End face of the long leg 13 attached. The fastening buttons 20 are at least one on the bottom lower crossbar 2 attached.

Je nach Breite des Bettes oder nach gewünschter Härte des Bettunterbaus ist zwischen den unteren und oberen Querlatten 2,2' mindestens ein in Längsrichtung verlaufender elastischer Distanz- oder Stützholm 6 mit vorzugsweise rechteckigem oder ovalen Querschnitt vorhanden, welcher im wesentlichen denselben Aufbau aufweist wie die Längsholme 1, jedoch nicht mit Taschen 3 versehen ist. Zur Befestigung an den Querlatten, hier den unteren Querlatten 2, weist der Stützholm 6 ein über mindestens annähernd die gesamte Länge verlaufendes Schlaufenband 60 auf, durch dessen Schlaufen die unteren Querlatten 2 hindurchgeführt sind.
Damit sich der mindestens eine Stützholm 6 in seiner Lage nicht verschiebt und somit den Liegekomfort nicht beeinträchtigt, ist er in der hier dargestellten Ausführungsform mit mindestens einem ein Knopfloch aufweisendem Befestigungsband 61 an den unteren Querlatten 2 befestigt. Diese zweiten Befestigungsbänder 61 bestehen aus einem textilen Material und sind am Schlaufenband 60 befestigt, vorzugsweise eingewoben. Die zweiten Befestigungsbänder 61 sind, wie hier dargestellt, an den zur Fixierung der Längsholmen 1 verwendeten Befestigungsknöpfen 20 oder an separaten Befestigungsknöpfen eingehängt.
Ist lediglich ein Stützholm 6 vorhanden, so ist er beidseitig über die zweiten Befestigungsbänder 61 an den Befestigungsknöpfen 20 befestigt. Sind mehrere, insbesondere zwei Stützholme 6 vorhanden, so sind in einer Ausführungsform lediglich die äussersten Stützholme 6 auf ihrer den Längsholmen 1 zugewandten Seite über das zweite Befestigungsband 61 mit dem nächstliegenden Befestigungsknopf verbunden. Um ein Verschieben in die andere Richtung zu verhindern, sind die Stützholme 6 untereinander über fest angeordnete oder lösbare Bänder miteinander verbunden.Depending on the width of the bed or the desired hardness of the bed base, there is at least one longitudinal spacer or support bar 6 with a preferably rectangular or oval cross section between the lower and upper crossbars 2, 2 ', which has essentially the same structure as the longitudinal bars 1, but is not provided with pockets 3. For fastening to the crossbars, here the lower crossbars 2, the support bar 6 has a loop band 60 which extends over at least approximately the entire length and through whose loops the lower crossbars 2 are guided.
So that the at least one support bar 6 does not shift in its position and thus does not impair lying comfort, in the embodiment shown here it is attached to the lower crossbars 2 with at least one fastening tape 61 having a buttonhole. These second fastening straps 61 consist of a textile material and are fastened to the loop strap 60, preferably woven into them. The second fastening tapes 61 are, as shown here, attached to the fastening buttons 20 used to fix the longitudinal bars 1 or to separate fastening buttons.
If there is only one support bar 6, it is attached to the attachment buttons 20 on both sides via the second attachment straps 61. If several, in particular two, support bars 6 are present, in one embodiment only the outermost support bars 6 are connected on their side facing the longitudinal bars 1 via the second fastening band 61 to the closest fastening button. In order to prevent displacement in the other direction, the support bars 6 are connected to one another via fixedly arranged or detachable bands.
