Abstract

The bearing unit (1) has two bores (5) for being joined to the frame with screws. Two of the bearing elements (2, 3) are positioned laterally on top of elastic areas (6). The central element (4) is assembled of two insertion areas (4a, 4b), arranged on top of each other. A heavy user can insert the slat into the upper (4a) of the two bearings, resulting in a firmer support, while a more lightweight user can insert the slat into the lower bearing (4b).

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Lagerkörper für Federholzleisten eines Bettrahmens gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Hauptanspruches.The invention relates to a bearing body for slats of a bed frame according to the preamble of the main claim.

Aus dem DE-GM 93 16 705 U1 ist ein Lattenrost mit Federlatten bekanntgeworden, bei welchem drei Federlatten nebeneinander an einem entsprechenden Lagerkörper angeordnet sind. Die drei Latten befinden sich in gleicher Höhe, und unterhalb dieser Latten bzw. unterhalb der mittigen Latte ist ein Zusatzlattenhalter angeordnet, der eine Zusatzlatte aufnimmt, deren Aufgabe es ist, daß, wenn die obere Federlatte durchgebogen ist, sie sich auf die Zusatzlatte auflegen soll, wodurch deren Stützkraft zur Stützkraft der normalen Federlatte addiert wird. Auf diese Weise wird der Widerstand gegen die Durchbiegung der Latten erhöht und der so ausgebildete Lattenrost wird in dem mit dieser Einrichtung ausgestatteten Bereich härter.From DE-GM 93 16 705 U1 a slatted frame with spring slats has become known, in which three spring slats are arranged side by side on a corresponding bearing body. The three slats are at the same height, and below these slats or below the central slat an additional slat holder is arranged, which receives an additional slat, whose task is that when the upper spring bar is bent, it should hang up on the additional slat , whereby their support force is added to the supporting force of the normal spring bar. In this way, the resistance against the deflection of the slats is increased and the slatted base thus formed becomes harder in the area equipped with this device.

Aus der EP 1 186 261 A2 ist ebenfalls ein Lagerkörper für Federholzleisten bekanntgeworden, bei welchem drei Latten nebeneinander angeordnet sind. Unterhalb dieser drei Latten ist eine weitere Latte vorgesehen, die im Abstand von der Unterseite der mittleren, oberen Latte angeordnet ist und die die Aufgabe hat, einen Verstellschieber aufzunehmen, mit dem durch Verstellen dieses Schiebers die darüber angeordnete Latte in ihrer Federeigenschaft verhärtet oder verändert wird.From the EP 1 186 261 A2 is also a storage body for slats have become known, in which three slats are arranged side by side. Below these three slats, a further batten is provided, which is arranged at a distance from the underside of the middle, upper batten and has the task of receiving an adjusting slide with which is hardened or changed by adjusting this slide, the bar arranged above its spring property ,

Außerdem ist die mittlere obere Federholzleiste höher angeordnet als die beiden daneben vorgesehenen Federholzleisten, wodurch erreicht wird, daß bei Nichtbenutzen des Bettes die Matratze höher über den meisten Federholzleisten angeordnet ist und dadurch eine gute Belüftung der Unterseite der Matratze erreicht wird.In addition, the middle upper spring wood strip is located higher than the two provided next slatted wooden slats, thereby ensuring that when not using the bed the Mattress is placed higher above most slats and thereby good ventilation of the underside of the mattress is achieved.

Schließlich sind im Stand der Technik Härteverstellschieber bekannt, die die Federholzleisten miteinander koppeln und dadurch die Rückstellkraft der Federholzleiste einstellbar machen.Finally, hardness adjusting slides are known in the art, which couple the slats together and thereby make the restoring force of the spring wood strip adjustable.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Lagerkörper für Federholzleisten zu schaffen, bei dem es möglich ist, die mittlere Federholzleiste oder die mittleren Federholzleisten in ihrer Höhe einzustellen, um dadurch eine homogene ganzflächige Körperabstützung der den Bettrahmen benutzenden Person zu erreichen, unabhängig davon, ob diese ein hohes oder ein niedriges Gewicht aufweist bzw. groß oder klein gewachsen ist.The present invention has for its object to provide a bearing body for slats, in which it is possible to adjust the central spring wood strip or the middle slats in height, thereby achieving a homogeneous whole-surface body support of the person using the bed frame person, regardless of whether it has a high or a low weight or grown large or small.

Diese der Erfindung zugrundeliegende Aufgabe wird durch die Lehre des Hauptanspruches gelöst.This problem underlying the invention is achieved by the teaching of the main claim.

Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen erläutert.Advantageous embodiments of the invention are explained in the subclaims.

Mit anderen Worten ausgedrückt wird vorgeschlagen, daß in an sich bekannter Weise der Lagerkörper mehrere Aufnahmen für Federholzleisten aufweist, wobei vorzugsweise drei Federholzleisten vorgesehen werden, aber in gleicher Weise auch vier Federholzleisten nebeneinander angeordnet werden können.
Die mittlere Aufnahme für diese. Federholzleisten, d. h. also entweder für die eine oder für die beiden mittleren Federholzleisten ist dabei als Mehrfachaufnahmetasche ausgebildet, so daß dort zwei Federholzleisten übereinander eingesetzt werden können. In Abhängigkeit des Gewichtes bzw. der Größe der den Bettrahmen benutzenden Person kann nun in diese eine oder beiden mittleren Aufnahmetaschen oder Mehrfachaufnahmetaschen die Federholzleiste in die obere oder in die untere Aufnahmetasche eingesetzt werden, wodurch erreicht wird, daß eine homogene, ganzflächige Körperabstützung, beispielsweise für schwere Personen, dann erreicht wird, wenn alle Leisten auf dem oberen Niveau angeordnet sind. Wird der Bettrahmen von einer relativ leichten Person benutzt, ist die mittlere Leiste tiefer versetzt, so daß auch in diesem Fall eine homogene, ganzflächige Körperabstützung erfolgt. Darüber hinaus können partiell Leistenanordnungen gewählt werden, die unterschiedlichen Körperproportionen gerecht werden, wie z. B. individuelle Zonenbildung im Schulter- oder Gesäßbereich. Dies erfolgt durch Hochstellen bzw. Tiefstellen der Leisten oder durch Entfemen von mittigen Leisten.In other words, it is proposed that in a conventional manner, the bearing body has a plurality of receptacles for slats, preferably three slats are provided, but in the same way four slats can be arranged side by side.
The middle shot for this. Slats, ie either for one or for the two middle slats is designed as a Mehrfachaufnahmetasche so that there two slats can be used one above the other. Depending on the weight or the size of the person using the bed frame can now in this one or two middle receiving pockets or Mehrfachaufnahmetaschen the spring wood strip in the upper or in the lower receiving pocket can be used, whereby it is achieved that a homogeneous, full-surface body support, for example, for heavy people, is achieved when all strips are arranged on the upper level. If the bed frame used by a relatively light person, the middle bar is offset more deeply, so that even in this case, a homogeneous, full-surface body support takes place. In addition, partial bar arrangements can be selected that meet different body proportions, such. B. individual zoning in the shoulder or buttocks area. This is done by raising or lowering the bars or by removing central bars.

Außerdem ist es möglich, in eine der Aufnahmetaschen vorzugsweise in eine der Aufnahmetaschen der Mehrfachaufnahmetasche ein verhärtendes Element einzusetzen.Moreover, it is possible to insert a hardening element in one of the receiving pockets, preferably in one of the receiving pockets of the multiple receiving pocket.

Gemäß der Erfindung wird weiterhin die Möglichkeit gegeben, die verschiedenen Federholzleisten durch Härteverstellschieber miteinander zu koppeln.According to the invention, the possibility is further given to couple the different slats by hardness adjustment slide together.

Die Lager in der Mehrfachaufnahmetasche sind so angeordnet, daß die Leisten in vertikaler Richtung weitestgehend unabhängig voneinander reagieren können, und zwar im Sinne erhöhter Punktelastizität.The bearings in the Mehrfachaufnahetasche are arranged so that the strips in the vertical direction can largely react independently of each other, in the sense of increased point elasticity.

Da das Einsetzen der Federholzleiste in die entsprechende Aufnahmetasche relativ schwierig ist, wenn die Aufnahmetasche materialeinheitlich mit dem Lagerkörper ausgebildet ist, wird gemäß der Erfindung weiterhin vorgeschlagen, daß die Mehrfachaufnahmetasche als selbständiges Bauteil ausgebildet ist, das also aus dem Lagerkörper entnommen werden kann. In diesem entnommenen Zustand kann nunmehr die Federholzleiste leicht eingesetzt oder ausgewechselt werden und kann dann mit der Mehrfachaufnahmetasche wieder in den Lagerkörper eingebracht werden. Die Halterung dieser als selbständiges Bauteil ausgebildeten Mehrfachaufnahmetasche im Lagerkörper ist problemlos. Darüber hinaus bietet die Anordnung den Vorteil, daß die Leisten im Lager weitgehend separat und punktelastisch reagieren können.Since the insertion of the spring wood strip into the corresponding receiving pocket is relatively difficult when the receiving pocket is formed of the same material with the bearing body, it is further proposed according to the invention that the Mehrfachaufnahmetasche is formed as an independent component, which can therefore be removed from the bearing body. In this removed state, the spring wood strip can now be easily used or replaced and can then be re-introduced into the bearing body with the multiple receiving pocket. The holder of this as an independent component trained multi-pocket in the bearing body is easily. In addition, the arrangement has the advantage that the strips in the camp can react largely separately and point elastic.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung wird nachfolgend anhand der Zeichnung erläutert.An embodiment of the invention will be explained below with reference to the drawing.

In der Zeichnung ist ein Lagerkörpr 1 dargestellt, der Befestigungselemente 5 aufweist, mit dem der Lagerkörper am Bettrahmen festgelegt werden kann. Weiterhin weist der Lagerkörper 1 Aufnahmetaschen 2, 3 und 4 für in der Zeichnung nicht dargestellte Federholzleisten auf, wobei diese Aufnahmetaschen mit den Befestigungselementen unter Zwischenschaltung von federnden Stützprofilen verbunden ist.In the drawing, a bearing body 1 is shown, the fastening elements 5, with which the bearing body can be fixed to the bed frame. Furthermore, the bearing body 1 receiving pockets 2, 3 and 4 for not shown in the drawing, spring wooden slats, said receiving pockets is connected to the fastening elements with the interposition of resilient support profiles.

Wie in der Zeichnung dargestellt, ist die mittlere Aufnahmetasche 4 als Mehrfachaufnahmetasche ausgebildet und weist zwei übereinander angeordnete Aufnahmetaschen 4a und 4b auf. In diese Taschen 4a bzw. 4b kann nunmehr das Ende der Federholzleiste eingesetzt werden.As shown in the drawing, the middle receiving pocket 4 is formed as a Mehrfachaufnahetasche and has two superimposed receiving pockets 4a and 4b. In these pockets 4a and 4b now the end of the spring wood strip can be used.

Wie dies die Zeichnung weiterhin deutlich zeigt, ist die Mehrfachaufnahmetasche 4 aus dem Lagerkörper 1 entnehmbar, so daß das Einsetzen und Auswechseln der Federholzleisten in den entsprechenden Aufnahmetaschen 4a bzw. 4b einfach durchzuführen ist.As the drawing further clearly shows, the Mehrfachaufnahmetasche 4 is removable from the bearing body 1, so that the insertion and replacement of the slats in the corresponding receiving pockets 4a and 4b is easy to perform.

In der Zeichnung sind drei nebeneinander angeordnete Aufnahmetaschen 2, 3 und 4 dargestellt. Es liegt jedoch im Rahmen der Erfindung, daß auch vier Aufnahmetaschen nebeneinander angeordnet sein können, wobei dann die beiden mittleren Aufnahmetaschen als aus dem Lagerkörper 1 entnehmbares Bauteil ausgebildet sind.In the drawing, three side-by-side receiving pockets 2, 3 and 4 are shown. However, it is within the scope of the invention that four receiving pockets can be arranged side by side, in which case the two middle receiving pockets are formed as removable from the bearing body 1 component.
