Abstract

The bed with a three-dimensionally movable mattreess (15) has a frame (10,12) with feet on which the mattress is accommodated in a non-sprung but pliable manner. Over the surface of the mattress sensors (16) are distributed, in order to determine the localized depression of the mattress surface under load. Over the surface of the mattress are distributed lifting devices (19) responding to the localized depression, in order to return the mattresses to the correct horizontal position independently of the localized different loads. The sensors and lifting devices are formeed as double-acting pressure medium cylinders and are connected crosswise to each other.

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Bett mit einer dreidimensional beweglich gelagerten Matratzenauflage und einem Bettgestell mit Füßen, das die Matratzenauflage aufnimmt.The invention relates to a bed with a three-dimensionally movable mattress topper and one Bed frame with feet that holds the mattress topper.

Ein derartiges Bett als Kinderbett ist bekannt (DE-OS 24 52 086). Bei dem bekannten Bett wird die Matratzenauflage dadurch beweglich gelagert, dass die Füße des Bettes nicht direkt auf dem Boden stehen, sondern mittelbar über Federn. Ein derartiges Bett hat jedoch den gravierenden Nachteil, dass ein Kind, wenn es sich beispielsweise in eine Ecke hin bewegt, die Matratzenauflage in eine räumlich schiefe Lage bringt, so dass nicht nur der Schlafcomfort leidet, sondern das Kind auch an das Gitter oder die Bettgestelle gedrückt wird.Such a bed as a child's bed is known (DE-OS 24 52 086). In the known bed, the mattress topper is thereby that the feet of the bed are not directly on stand on the floor, but indirectly via springs. Such a thing However, bed has the serious disadvantage that a child when for example, it moves into a corner that Mattress toppings in a spatially inclined position, so that Not only does sleeping comfort suffer, but the child also suffers from it Grid or the bed frames is pressed.

Es ist weiterhin eine anpaßbare Schwingliege bekannt, bei welcher ein Schwingrahmen auf vier Schwingständern gehaltert wird und Federelemente dafür sorgen, daß die Schwingliege Schwingungen durchführen kann und zwar in mehreren räumlichen Achsen (DE 43 00 425 C 2 sowie DE 196 54 500 C 1). There is also a customizable swing table known which holds a swing frame on four swing stands will and spring elements ensure that the rocking chair Can perform vibrations in several spatial axes (DE 43 00 425 C 2 and DE 196 54 500 C 1).

Bei einer Vorrichtung zum Stützen des menschlichen Körpers (DE 196 33 318 C 1) befinden sich an einer Stützfläche Druckmittelzylinder, die so beaufschlagt werden können, daß der ausfahrbare Teleskopteil der Druckmittelzylinder sich an die Konturierung des menschlichen Körpers anpaßt.In a device for supporting the human Bodies (DE 196 33 318 C 1) are located on a support surface Pressure cylinder, which can be acted on so that the extendable telescopic part of the pressure medium cylinder to the Contour of the human body.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist, ein Bett der eingangs genannten Art so auszugestalten, dass unabängig von der Lage, die der Benutzer im Bett einnimmt, die Matratze immer wieder in die horizontale Ebene zurückgeht.The object of the present invention is a bed of the beginning the type mentioned so that regardless of the situation, which the user occupies in bed, the mattress in again and again the horizontal plane goes back.

Erreicht wird dies dadurch, dass bei einem Bett der eingangs genannten Art die Matratzenauflagen nicht federnd aber nachgiebig am Bettgestell befestigt ist; über die Fläche der Matratzenauflage verteilt Sensoren angeordnet sind, um die örtliche Absenkung der Matratzenauflage bei Belastung festzustellen; und ebenfalls über die Fläche der Matratzenauflage verteilt auf die örtliche Absenkung ansprechende Hubeinrichtungen zwischen Matratzenauflage und Bettgestell angeordnet sind, um die Matratzenauflage unabhängig von der örtlich unterschiedlichen Belastung waagerecht auszurichten, wobei die Sensoren und Hubeinrichtungen jeweils als doppeltwirkender Druckmittelzylinder ausgebildet und kreuzweise zueinander angeschlossen sind.This is achieved by the fact that the entrance to a bed mentioned type the mattress pads are not resilient however is resiliently attached to the bed frame; over the area of the Mattress topper is arranged around the sensors local lowering of the mattress topper under load determine; and also over the area of the mattress topper distributed appealing to the local subsidence Lifting devices between mattress topper and bed frame are arranged to the mattress topper regardless of the aligning different local loads horizontally, the sensors and lifting devices each as Double-acting pressure medium cylinder designed and crosswise are connected to each other.

Für die Erfindung ist zunächst einmal wesentlich, dass mehrere, vorzugsweise vier, Sensoren vorhanden sind, die auf die örtliche Absenkung der Matratzenauflage ansprechen und ein entsprechendes Signal abgeben. Dieses Signal erreicht die zugehörigen Hubeinrichtungen, die in Tätigkeit treten, um die Matratzenauflage waagerecht auszurichten.It is essential for the invention that several, preferably four, sensors are present which are based on the local Address the lowering of the mattress pad and a corresponding one Give signal. This signal reaches the associated Lifting devices that come into operation to the Align the mattress topper horizontally.

Bei der Ausführungsform des Bettes gemäß der Erfindung sind die Sensoren und Hubeinrichtung als doppelwirkende Druckmittelzylinder ausgebildet, die kreuzweise zueinander angeschlossen sind. Bei einer weiterhin bevorzugten Ausführungsform befinden sich die Druckmittelzylinder jeweils im Bereich jeder Ecke des Bettes.In the embodiment of the bed according to the Invention are the sensors and lifting device as double-acting pressure medium cylinders, which are crosswise are connected to each other. With another preferred Embodiment are the pressure medium cylinders in each case Area of every corner of the bed.

Diese Druckmittelzylinder stellen die einfachste Art eines Sensors und zugleich eines Antriebes dar, wenn sie kreuzweise zueinander verschaltet werden. So wird beispielsweise der untere Ausgang des einen Druckmittelzylinders mit dem oberen Eingang des diagonal gegenüberliegenden Druckmittelzylinders verbunden, was dazu führt, dass die Absenkung in einer Ecke des Bettes erfasst und diese Absenkung entsprechend gegengesteuert wird.These pressure cylinders represent the simplest type of one Sensor and at the same time a drive if they cross can be interconnected. For example, the bottom one Output of a pressure cylinder with the upper input of the diagonally opposite pressure medium cylinder, which causes the lowering in a corner of the bed is recorded and this reduction is counteracted accordingly.

Mit dieser Konstruktion eines Kinderbettes wird nach der Geburt auf die Lebensgewohnheit in der vorgeburtlichen Phase Bezug genommen. Kennzeichnend ist die Lattenrostebene, wenn sie schwingend gelagert ist, jede Bewegung des Kindes aufnimmt, so dass das Kind die ihm bereits bekannten Bewegungen im Mutterleib auch nach der Geburt wieder vorfindet. Von Bedeutung ist hierbei, dass es sich nicht um eine Bewegung handelt, die von außen auf die Schlafebene übertragen wird, sondern dass lediglich die Bewegungen des Kindes erfasst und ein waagerechter Ausgleich bewerkstelligt wird.With this construction a child's bed is made after birth to the lifestyle in the prenatal phase taken. The slatted frame level is characteristic if it is swinging, absorbs every movement of the child, so that the child is already familiar with the movements in the womb can also be found after birth. It matters here that it is not a movement by is transferred outside to the sleeping level, but that only the child's movements recorded and a horizontal one Compensation is accomplished.

Die leichten Bewegungen des Säuglings werden also aufgenommen und zurückgegeben, ohne dass eine schiefe Schlafebene entsteht. Diese wird z. B. sichergestellt durch die Anordnung von Zylindern oder alternativ Bälgen am Lattenrost, die über eine Hydraulik bei jeder Bewegung die Horizontallage wieder herstellt.The slight movements of the baby are thus absorbed and returned without creating an oblique sleeping level. This is z. B. ensured by the arrangement of Cylinders or alternatively bellows on the slatted frame, which over a Hydraulics restore the horizontal position with every movement manufactures.

Die erste Lattenrostebene ist vorzugsweise mit einem Abstand zu den Bettinnnenwänden an Gummischlaufen schwingend aufgehängt. Zur Lagestabilisierung befindet sich unterhalb - alternativ auch oberhalb - des Lattenrostes eine Hydraulik-Kombination, alternativ Hydraulik-Bälge, die bei einseitiger Gewichtsverlagerung die Schlafebene in der waagerechten Lage hält. Die Lagerung des Kindes ist so bei geradem Rücken und in jeder Lage möglich, ohne dass auf beruhigendes Schwingen oder Schaukeln verzichtet werden muss. Hinzu kommt, dass das Kind selbst bestimmen kann wie stark die Schwingung ist.The first slatted frame level is preferably at a distance from swinging suspended from the inner walls of the bed on rubber loops. To stabilize the position is located below - alternatively above - the slatted frame a hydraulic combination, alternatively hydraulic bellows, with one-sided weight shift keeps the sleeping level in a horizontal position. The The child is positioned with his back straight and in any position possible without having to worry about swinging or swinging must be waived. Add to that the child himself can determine how strong the vibration is.

Das Bett mit den Standardmaßen eines handelsüblichen Kinderbettes kann später den Lebens- und Wachstumsbedingungen des Kindes flexibel angepasst werden. Entsprechend der Zunahme an Gewicht und Größe des Kindes kann das Lattenrost auf eine andere beliebig gewählte Ebene versetzt werden. Die Eltern können entscheiden, ob die schwingende Ebene erhalten bleibt oder ein fester Lattenrost bevorzugt wird. Ein vorgefertigter vorhandener Blendrahmen nimmt das kleinere Lattenrost der oberen Ebene auf. Die Fixierung erfolgt durch die entsprechenden Bohrungen, die die vorhandenen Bolzen aufnimmt und schließt dann bündig an die Innenwand des Bettes an.The bed with the standard dimensions of a commercially available Cot can later change the living and growing conditions of the child can be flexibly adjusted. According to the increase the slatted frame can be adjusted to the weight and size of the child any other level you choose can be moved. The parents can decide whether the vibrating level is retained or a solid slatted frame is preferred. A pre-made existing frame takes the smaller slatted frame of the upper Level on. The fixation is done by the appropriate Holes that picks up the existing bolt and then closes flush with the inside wall of the bed.

Die Längsseiten und Querseiten des Bettchens sind in den ersten Monaten der Nutzung in Höhe des noch schwingend aufgelagerten Lattenrostes mit einer Blende verletzungssicher verdeckt. Diese Blende wird in einem späteren Lebensalter nach unten versetzt und bildet dann den Bettrahmen, der das Herausrutschen von Bettdecke und Kopfkissen verhindert.The long and short sides of the crib are in the first Months of use in the amount of still swinging Slatted frame covered with a panel to prevent injury. This Aperture will move down at a later age and then forms the bed frame that slides out Duvet and pillow prevented.

Bei einem Kinderbett mit schwingendem Lattenrost nach der Erfindung sind am oberen Rahmenholz in Abständen von ca. 20 cm senkrechte Holzpflöcke eingelassen, die Gummischlaufen aufnehmen. Diese Gummischlaufen werden über die eingelassenen Holzpflöcke unterhalb des Lattenrosten gezogen. Damit gibt das obere Lattenrost jedem Druck nach, der auf die Oberfläche ausgeübt wird. Alle Holzpflöcke haben eine Nut direkt am Rahmenholz, die die Gummistreifen bzw. Ringe fixieren, so dass sie nicht abrutschen können. Unterhalb des Rahmenholzes werden die Gummischlaufen mit einer Schelle zusätzlich gesichert, so dass auch ein Abrutschen bei stärkerer Bewegung ausgeschlossen werden kann.For a cot with a swinging slatted frame after the Invention are on the upper frame wood at intervals of about 20 cm vertical wooden pegs embedded, the rubber loops take up. These rubber loops are inserted over the Wooden pegs drawn below the slatted frame. So there is top slatted base after any pressure on the surface is exercised. All wooden pegs have a groove directly on Frame wood that fix the rubber strips or rings so that they cannot slide off. Be below the frame wood the rubber loops are additionally secured with a clamp, see above that even slipping with stronger movement is excluded can be.

Der obere Blendrahmen, auf dem die Holzpflöcke befestigt sind, wird mit einer Deckleiste mit entsprechend gegenüberliegenden Bohrungen mit je zwei eingelassenen Schrauben am Bettende befestigt. Die Schraubenköpfe werden mit einem Deckel geschützt. Die Deckleiste verhindert darüber hinaus, dass die Gummis zu einem nicht gewollten Zeitpunkt entfernt werden können.The upper frame on which the wooden pegs are attached comes with a cover strip with corresponding opposite Holes with two recessed screws at the end of the bed attached. The screw heads are protected with a cover. The cover strip also prevents the rubbers from closing can be removed at an undesired time.

Bei einem Kinderbett mit schwingendem Lattenrost nach der Erfindung wird auf der Ebene des schwingenden Lattenrostes eine der Hydraulik-Kombinationen angeordnet, die jede Neigung aus der waagerechten Ebene ausgleichen:For a cot with a swinging slatted frame after the Invention is at the level of the vibrating slatted frame of the hydraulic combinations arranged, each inclination from the Compensate horizontal level:

Möglichkeit 1Possibility Number 1

Das Hydrauliksystem besteht aus vier Zylindern, deren Kammern mittig getrennt sind. Diagonal werden die Zylinder mit einem Hydraulikschlauch verbunden. Der Schlauch verbindet die untere Kammer des einen Zylinders mit der oberen Kammer des diagonal gegenüberliegenden Zylinders. Wird Druck auf den einen Zylinder ausgeübt, so fließt aus der unteren Kammer des einen Zylinders die verdrängte Hydraulikflüssigkeit in die obere Kammer des diagonal angeordneten Zylinders. Dadurch wird in beiden Zylindern der Kolben um den gleichen Hub abwärts bewegt. Diese gleichlaufende Bewegung findet auch dann statt - jedoch in umgekehrter Richtung - wenn der gegenüberliegende Zylinder durch die Bewegung des Kindes belastet wird. Die Hydraulikzylinder werden über ein Kugelgelenk mit dem Rahmenholz und dem Auflager des Zylinders verbunden. Durch dieses Kugelgelenk kann das Lattenrost horizontale Bewegungen aufnehmen und weitergeben. The hydraulic system consists of four cylinders, their chambers are separated in the middle. The cylinders become diagonal with a Hydraulic hose connected. The hose connects the lower one Chamber of one cylinder with the upper chamber of the diagonal opposite cylinder. Will put pressure on one cylinder exercised, flows from the lower chamber of one cylinder the displaced hydraulic fluid into the upper chamber of the diagonally arranged cylinders. This will result in both Cylinders of the pistons moved down the same stroke. This synchronous movement also takes place - however in reverse direction - when the opposite cylinder goes through the child's movement is stressed. The hydraulic cylinders are connected via a ball joint to the frame wood and the support connected to the cylinder. This ball joint can do that Slatted frame absorb horizontal movements and pass them on.

Möglichkeit 2Possibility 2

Das Hydrauliksystem besteht aus acht Rollbälgen, von denen vier oberhalb und vier unterhalb des Lattenrostes angeordnet werden. Die Bälge sind fest mit dem Lattenrost und dem dazugehörigen Auflager verbunden. Der jeweils obere und untere sich diagonal gegenüberliegende Balg wird mit einer Hydraulikleitung verbunden. Bei einseitiger Belastung des unteren Balges wird über den Druckausgleich der obere diagonale Balg um den gleich Hubbetrag in die gleiche Richtung gelenkt, so dass eine Lagestabilisierung über den wechselseitigen gegenläufigen Hubweg erfolgt. Bei dieser Alternative werden waagerechte Bewegungen durch die Bälge aufgenommen und auf das Lattenrost direkt übertragen.The hydraulic system consists of eight bellows, four of which above and four below the slatted frame. The bellows are fixed with the slatted frame and the associated Support connected. The top and bottom are diagonal opposite bellows is connected to a hydraulic line connected. With one-sided loading of the lower bellows about the pressure equalization of the upper diagonal bellows by the same Stroke amount directed in the same direction so that a Position stabilization via the reciprocal opposite stroke he follows. This alternative uses horizontal movements picked up by the bellows and directly onto the slatted frame transfer.

Bei einem Kinderbett mit schwingendem Lattenrost nach der Erfindung wird der Zwischenraum von Innenkante Bett zur Außenkante Lattenrost mit einer gefütterten Stoffverkleidung abgedeckt, um a) die Größe des Kinderbettes für die ersten Monate des Babys optisch zu verkleinern und der Größe des Kindes anzupassen; und b) den offene Teil bis zur Bettinnenwand weich und verletzungssicher zu verschließen. Dieses Schließen erfolgt durch eine doppelte Stoffbahn, die im Innenraum mit Schaumstoff gefüllt wird. Die untere Ebene der Stoffbahn wird am Rahmen des Lattenrostes verdeckt befestigt. Der obere Teil der Stoffbahn erhält genietete Ringe, die über die oberen Holzpflöcke, identisch wie die Gummischlaufen, gesteckt werden. Wie zum Schutz der Gummischlaufen sind auch die Nietringe durch den Blendrahmen fixiert und geschützt.For a cot with a swinging slatted frame after the Invention is the space from the inside edge of the bed Outside edge slatted frame with a lined fabric covering covered to a) the size of the cot for the first Visually shrink the baby's months and child's size adapt; and b) the open part is soft up to the inner wall of the bed and lock it securely. This closing takes place through a double fabric panel, the inside with foam is filled. The lower level of the fabric is on the frame of the Slatted frame attached concealed. The upper part of the fabric receives riveted rings over the top wooden pegs, identical to the rubber loops. How to The rivet rings are also protected by the rubber loops Frame fixed and protected.

Bei einem Kinderbett mit schwingendem Lattenrost nach der Erfindung wird das kleinere Lattenrost in einer unteren Ebene von einem Blendrahmen aufgenommen, der entsprechend versetzt werden kann. Eine Neuanschaffung des Lattenrostes ist somit nicht erforderlich. Dieser bereits eingebaute Blendrahmen dient in der ersten Lebensphase des Kindes zur Aufnahme der Hydraulikstempel oder alternativ der Bälge. Nach Entfernen der Gummischlaufen sowie der Hydraulik wird das Lattenrost auf eine nach eigener Wahl ausgesuchte Ebene gesetzt. Der Blendrahmen enthält bereits die entsprechenden Bohrungen, in die die vorhandenen Holzpflöcke des Lattenrostes eingefügt werden. Somit ist dann das Lattenrost fixiert und kann nicht verrutschen. Die in den Abmaßen größere Matratze (70 x 1.40 cm) stellt nunmehr den direkten Anschluss zur Bettinnenwand her.For a cot with a swinging slatted frame after the Invention is the smaller slatted frame in a lower level taken up by a frame that is offset accordingly can be. A new purchase of the slatted frame is therefore not mandatory. This built-in frame serves in the first phase of life of the child to receive the Hydraulic stamp or alternatively the bellows. After removing the Rubber slats as well as the hydraulics will put the slatted frame on a selected level set at your own choice. The frame already contains the corresponding holes in which the existing wooden pegs of the slatted frame can be inserted. Consequently the slatted frame is then fixed and cannot slip. The in the dimensions larger mattress (70 x 1.40 cm) now provides the direct connection to the inner wall of the bed.
