Definitions

  • the invention relates to a bed, which is in particular a hospital or nursing bed, see for example EP-A-1 155 670 ,
  • Health or nursing beds are usually adjustable in height to facilitate the care of a patient or volunteers. Such beds usually have side panels on both sides of the bed, which should prevent the subject from falling out of bed.
  • a hospital or nursing bed can be lowered so far that the upper edges of the side parts are at a level at which the risk of injury in the event that the subject overcomes the side rails, only low.
  • the bed can be lowered so far that its lying surface is only a few centimeters (for example, 20 to 30 cm) above the ground. In such a low lowering position can even be dispensed with a side protection, since the risk of injury in a "falling" of a few centimeters is hardly given.
  • the known height-adjustable beds with scissor mechanism or scissor levers have a frame with frame side and frame cross members, wherein on the frame head and predominantlyteil07 pivotable legs are arranged.
  • the legs have lower ends supporting a ground, while their opposite upper ends are slidably guided on the frame.
  • a centrally arranged drive mechanism allows the legs to pivot so that the bed frame is raised or lowered.
  • adjustable mattress overlay devices To further enhance comfort, healthcare beds have adjustable reclining areas, i. adjustable mattress overlay devices. These devices have individually adjustable or pivotable parts that are adjustable by motor.
  • the adjusting drive is located below the lying surface or mattress support surface of the mattress support device.
  • the height-adjustable frame of the hospital or nursing bed must not collide with this adjustment, which means that the bed can only be lowered into a position in which the lying surface is at a height above the ground, in which one does not have a side guard can do without. In other words, therefore, the adjustment prevents equipped with scissor mechanism similar height adjustments hospital or nursing beds, that these beds can be lowered to a position as close to the ground.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to provide a bed, in particular hospital or nursing bed, that can be lowered as far as possible and in which a below the lying surface arranged adjustment for a reclining adjustment is not detrimental to the possibility of lowering the bed until a position in which can be dispensed with a side protection affects.
  • the height-adjustable underframe instead of a centrally arranged lifting aggregate has two lifting units arranged on both sides of the longitudinal axis (axis in the longitudinal extent between the top and bottom part of the bed). Between the two lifting units there is a gap into which the adjustment drive arranged underneath a mattress support device for the mattress support device is immersed when the bed is in its lowest lowered position.
  • the collides Adjustment drive for the mattress support device no longer with the drive for pivoting the legs for height adjustment of the bed.
  • each lifting unit has a drive unit with a housing and a push rod movable out of the housing or movable into the housing.
  • the lifting units are located between one of the transverse frame parts of the frame of the frame and the cross braces of one of the two pairs of legs. In this way, so attacks on each pair of legs a lifting unit.
  • that leg is slidably mounted on the guide profile.
  • the guide profiles also extend near the frame side parts. The other leg, with which no lifting unit is connected, does not necessarily require a guide, since it is rigidly connected via the cross-brace to the guided on the guide profile leg of the respective pair of legs.
  • leg of a pair of legs on which a lifting aggregate does not act (directly) is supported on the guide profile and consequently guided longitudinally displaceably there.
  • This peculiarity is related to the use of two lifting units, which are as far as possible from each other, leaving the gap between them, so that tilting movements, which could still exercise the frame relative to the adjustable legs, are prevented according to the invention.
  • the two lifting units have both in the longitudinal extent of the frame at a distance from each other and to the central axis of the frame an offset by being arranged on both sides of the center axis.
  • each cross-brace has a cross brace and two angle or arc struts extending from the cross member to the upper ends of the legs, and that the legs on the Winke or bow struts along the guide profiles and are supported.
  • legs are pivotally connected to support struts, which are rotatably mounted on the frame extending parallel to the frame cross members axes.
  • the bed 10 comprises a height-adjustable underframe 12 on which a mattress support device 14 rests or to which this device is attached.
  • a mattress support device 14 rests or to which this device is attached.
  • Fig. 2 only the adjusting drive 16 and the adjustable levers 18 and 20 and the associated driven axes of rotation 21,22 of the mattress support device 14 is shown.
  • the individual mattress support parts are not shown for the sake of clarity in the figures.
  • the frame 12 has a headboard side pair of legs 24 and a dominantteil workedem pair of legs 26 which are connected at their lower ends together rigidly via a cross brace 28,30.
  • the upper ends 32, 34 of the legs 24, 26 are guided on guide profiles 36.
  • These guide profiles 36 extend horizontally and parallel to side frame parts 38 of a frame 40, which also has transverse frame parts 42,44.
  • the guide profiles 36 extend between the transverse frame members 42 where they are secured.
  • the legs 24,26 of each pair are connected by a cross-brace 46 with each other.
  • This cross brace 46 has a cross brace 48 and two angle or arc struts 50 which extend from the cross brace 48, and indeed each angle or elbow brace 50 to the upper end 32 and 34 of the legs 24 and 26, respectively is in Fig. 1 to recognize
  • Each lifting assembly 52 is attached to its housing 56 at a transverse frame portion 42 (indicated at 60 in the figures), while the push rod 58 is mounted on the strut 46 and the brace bar 50 of that strut 46 (see Figs 62) which is opposite to the transverse frame part 42 on which the housing 56 of this lifting unit 52 is supported.
  • the legs are guided via sliding blocks 64 on the guide profiles 36. These slide blocks 64 are attached to the angle or arc struts 50.
  • legs 24 and 26 are held by retaining struts 70 on the frame 40.
  • the support struts 70 are pivotally connected to the legs 24, 26 (indicated at 72).
  • a parking brake 78 is also provided.
