Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Untermatratze fĂ¼r ein Bett, umfassend zwei in Längsrichtung des Bettes verlaufende, voneinander beabstandete Längsträger, mehrere an diesen Längsträgern in Auflagern gehaltene StĂ¼tzelemente, welche StĂ¼tzelemente quer zu diesen Längsträgern ausgerichtet sind und um diese Auflager in einer senkrecht zu den Längsträgern stehenden Ebene bewegbar sind, deren beide Seitenteile Ă¼ber die Längsträger vorstehend sind und mit jeweils einem BrĂ¼ckenelement ausgestattet sind, deren den Seitenteilen abgewandte Endbereiche gegeneinander gerichtet sind und miteinander beweglich verbunden sind, Haltemittel, die an den äusseren Endbereichen der Seitenteile der StĂ¼tzelemente angebracht sind, und Federleisten, deren Enden in den Haltemitteln gehalten sind und die oberhalb der StĂ¼tzelemente eine Auflagefläche fĂ¼r eine Obermatratze bilden.The present invention relates to a bedding mattress comprising two longitudinally spaced beams extending longitudinally of the bed, a plurality of support members supported on said longitudinal beams, supporting members oriented transversely to said longitudinal beams, and arranged around said supports in a direction perpendicular to said bed rails Longitudinal members are movable, the two side parts are projecting over the longitudinal beams and are each equipped with a bridge element, the side parts facing away from the end portions are directed towards each other and are movably connected to each other, holding means which are attached to the outer end portions of the side parts of the support elements, and spring strips whose ends are held in the holding means and which form a support surface for a top mattress above the support elements.

Derartige Untermatratzen sind bekannt. Hierbei sind die StĂ¼tzelemente so ausgebildet, dass beide Ă¼ber die Längsträger vorstehenden Seitenteile eines StĂ¼tzelementes bei Belastung der Federleisten im wesentlichen gleichzeitig nach unten ausschwenken, unabhängig davon, ob die Belastung dieser Federleisten im mittleren Bereich oder gegen einen Randbereich hin erfolgt. Dies wird dadurch erreicht, dass die Seitenteile in Auflagern gehalten sind, die an den Längsträgern befestigt sind, und dass die beiden Seitenträger Ă¼ber BrĂ¼ckenelemente miteinander verbunden sind, wobei diese Verbindung beweglich ausgestaltet ist, wodurch ein gegenseitiges gemeinsames Verschwenken dieser BrĂ¼ckenteile erreicht wird. Durch diese Ausgestaltung der StĂ¼tzelemente wird ein optimaler Liegekomfort auf dieser Untermatratze erreicht, auch wenn eine Person auf einem seitlichen Bereich dieser Untermatratze liegt, und das entsprechende StĂ¼tzelement einfedert, entsteht keine Neigung der Federleisten gegen diesen Seitenbereich der Untermatratze hin, da die Einfederung dieses einen Seitenteils Ă¼ber die BrĂ¼ckenelemente und deren Verbindung auch auf den anderen Seitenteil Ă¼bertragen wird.Such sub-mattresses are known. In this case, the support elements are formed so that both extend over the side members projecting side parts of a support element under load of the spring strips substantially simultaneously downward, regardless of whether the burden of this spring strips in the central region or against an edge region out. This is achieved in that the side parts are held in supports which are secured to the longitudinal members, and that the two side supports are interconnected via bridge elements, which connection is designed to be movable, whereby a mutual common pivoting of these bridge parts is achieved. This embodiment of the support elements an optimal comfort on this mattress is achieved, even if a person lies on a lateral region of this sub-mattress, and the corresponding support element springs, there is no tendency of the spring strips against this side region of the lower mattress, since the deflection of this one side part is transmitted via the bridge elements and their connection to the other side part.

Eine derartige Untermatratze soll auch den entsprechenden Liegekomfort fĂ¼r Personen mit unterschiedlichem Gewicht bieten. Hierzu sind Einstellmöglichkeiten vorgesehen, mit welchen die Einfederung bzw. die Härte der Einfederung eingestellt werden können, um sie individuell an die auf dem Bett liegende Person anpassen zu können.Such a mattress should also provide the appropriate reclining comfort for people with different weights. For this purpose, adjustments are provided, with which the deflection or the hardness of the deflection can be adjusted to customize them individually to the person lying on the bed can.

Die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung besteht somit darin, eine Untermatratze fĂ¼r ein Bett mit Einstellmitteln fĂ¼r die Einfederung bzw. Einfederhärte der StĂ¼tzleisten zu versehen, welche einfach im Aufbau und einfach in der Bedienung sind und deren Wirkung optimal ist.The object of the present invention is thus to provide a lower mattress for a bed with adjusting means for the deflection or Einfederhärte the support strips, which are simple in construction and easy to use and their effect is optimal.

Erfindungsgemäss erfolgt die Lösung dieser Aufgabe dadurch, dass im Bereich der Verbindung der beiden BrĂ¼ckenelemente ein im Wesentlichen längs der beiden BrĂ¼ckenelemente verlaufendes blattfederförmiges Element angebracht ist, welches Ă¼ber Verstellmittel bezĂ¼glich der BrĂ¼ckenelemente unterschiedlich vorspannbar ist.According to the invention, the solution of this object is achieved in that in the region of the connection of the two bridge elements a substantially along the two bridge elements extending leaf spring-shaped element is mounted, which is differently biased on adjusting means with respect to the bridge elements.

Mit dieser Ausgestaltung wird eine einfach herzustellende Verstelleinrichtung erhalten, die kostengĂ¼nstig ist, deren Wirkungsweise sehr einfach ist und deren Verstellung in einfacher Weise vorgenommen werden kann.With this embodiment, an easily manufactured adjustment is obtained, which is inexpensive, the operation is very simple and their adjustment can be made in a simple manner.

In vorteilhafter Weise ist das blattfederförmige Element im auf den Längsträgern montierten Zustand der StĂ¼tzleisten auf der unteren Seite im Bereich der Verbindung der beiden BrĂ¼ckenelemente befestigt und sind die Verstellmittel zwischen BrĂ¼ckenelement und Endbereich des blattfedertörmigen Elementes angeordnet, wodurch neben der gĂ¼nstigen Herstellung und Montage auch die ästhetischen Anforderungen erfĂ¼llt werden.Advantageously, the leaf spring-shaped element is mounted in the mounted on the side rails state of the support strips on the lower side in the region of the connection of the two bridge elements and the adjusting means between bridge element and end portion of the leaf spring-shaped element are arranged, whereby in addition to the favorable production and assembly and the aesthetic Requirements are met.

Eine weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung der Erfindung besteht darin, dass das blattfederförmige Element mit einem mittleren Bereich an den BrĂ¼ckenelementen im Bereich der Verbindung befestigt ist, während die Verstellmittel an beiden Endbereichen des blattfederförmigen Elementes angeordnet sind. Durch Vergrössern des Abstandes der beiden Endbereiche des blattfederförmigen Elementes von den BrĂ¼ckenelementen Ă¼ber die Verstellmittel lässt sich diese in einfacher Weise vorspannen, die Einfederhärte der StĂ¼tzelemente wird dadurch vergrössert.A further advantageous embodiment of the invention is that the leaf spring-shaped element is fastened with a central region on the bridge elements in the region of the connection, while the adjusting means are arranged on both end regions of the leaf-spring-shaped element. By increasing the distance of the two end portions of the leaf spring-shaped element of the bridge elements on the Adjusting means can be biased in a simple manner, the Einfederhärte the support elements is thereby increased.

In vorteilhafter Weise sind die beiden BrĂ¼ckenelemente durch ein Gelenk miteinander verbunden und ist in diesem Gelenk das blattfederförmige Element angelenkt, wodurch ein sehr einfacher Aufbau und eine sehr einfache Montage der entsprechenden Elemente erreichbar ist.Advantageously, the two bridge elements are connected together by a hinge and is articulated in this joint, the leaf spring-shaped element, whereby a very simple structure and a very simple installation of the corresponding elements can be achieved.

Eine weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung der Erfindung besteht darin, dass die Verstellmittel aus einem Verstellrad gebildet sind, welches um eine am BrĂ¼ckenelement befestigte Drehachse, die im wesentlichen parallel zur Auflagefläche fĂ¼r eine Obermatratze ausgerichtet ist, verdrehbar ist und mit jeweils einem Einstellbereich der Umfangsfläche auf dem blattfederförmigen Element abgestĂ¼tzt ist. Dadurch ergibt sich ebenfalls auch ein sehr einfacher Aufbau der Einstelleinrichtung.A further advantageous embodiment of the invention is that the adjusting means are formed from an adjusting wheel, which is rotatable about an axis of rotation attached to the bridge element, which is aligned substantially parallel to the support surface for a top mattress, and each having a setting range of the peripheral surface on the leaf spring-shaped Element is supported. This also results in a very simple construction of the adjustment.

In vorteilhafter Weise weisen die Einstellbereiche der Umfangsfläche des Drehrades von der Drehachse unterschiedliche Abstände auf, wodurch durch einfaches Verdrehen des Verstellrads die Vorspannung des blattfederförmigen Elemente vergrössert oder verkleinert werden kann.Advantageously, the adjustment of the peripheral surface of the rotary wheel of the rotation axis at different distances, whereby the bias of the leaf spring-shaped elements can be increased or reduced by simply rotating the adjusting.

Um eine optimales Bedienen des Verstellrads fĂ¼r eine Bedienerperson ermöglichen zu können, ist dieses in einer schlitzförmigen Durchgangsöffnung im BrĂ¼ckenelement angeordnet und dieses ist Ă¼ber die Oberseitenfläche des BrĂ¼ckenelementes vorstehend. Dadurch kann das Verstellrad von der Oberseite dieser Untermatratze her in einfacher Weise verdreht werden.In order to enable optimum operation of the adjusting wheel for an operator, this is arranged in a slot-shaped passage opening in the bridge element and this is projecting over the top surface of the bridge element. As a result, the adjusting wheel can be rotated in a simple manner from the upper side of this lower mattress.

Um die Einstellbereiche des Verstellrades korrekt einstellen zu können, sind die Einstellbereiche des Verstellrades mit Anschlägen festgelegt.In order to be able to set the setting ranges of the adjusting wheel correctly, the setting ranges of the adjusting wheel are determined with stops.

In vorteilhafter Weise sind am Verstellrad Markierungen angebracht, Ă¼ber welche der eingestellte Einstellbereich in einfacher Weise angezeigt wird.Advantageously, markings are mounted on the adjusting wheel, via which the set adjustment range is displayed in a simple manner.

Zur Verbesserung der Bedienbarkeit ist am Verstellrad eine radial ausgerichtete Ă–ffnung angebracht, in welche zum Verstellen dieses Verstellrads ein Bedienwerkzeug einsteckbar ist.To improve the operability a radially aligned opening is mounted on the adjusting, in which for adjusting this adjusting an operating tool can be inserted.

Eine AusfĂ¼hrungsform der Erfindung wird nachfolgend anhand der beiliegenden Zeichnung beispielhaft näher erläutert.An embodiment of the invention will be explained in more detail by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings.

In Fig. 1 ist ein Teil einer Untermatratze fĂ¼r ein Bett dargestellt. Dieser umfasst zwei Längsträger 1 und 2, die sich Ă¼ber die gesamte Länge des Betts erstrecken. Ăœber die gesamte Länge der Längsträger 1 und 2 sind StĂ¼tzelemente 3 angebracht, von welchen in Fig. 1 eines dargestellt ist. Diese StĂ¼tzelemente 3 sind quer zu den Längselementen 1, 2 ausgerichtet und in Auflagern 4 gehalten, welche Auflager 4 an den Längsträgern 1 und 2 befestigt sind.In Fig. 1 is a part of a mattress for a bed shown. This comprises two longitudinal members 1 and 2, which extend over the entire length of the bed. Over the entire length of the longitudinal members 1 and 2 support elements 3 are mounted, of which in Fig. 1 one is shown. These support elements 3 are aligned transversely to the longitudinal elements 1, 2 and held in supports 4, which supports 4 are attached to the longitudinal members 1 and 2.

Das in Fig. 1 dargestellte StĂ¼tzelement 3 weist zwei Seitenteile 5 und 6 auf, die jeweils Ă¼ber den Längsträger 1 bzw. 2 vorstehend sind.This in Fig. 1 shown support member 3 has two side parts 5 and 6, which are respectively above the side members 1 and 2, respectively.

Jeder Seitenteil 5 und 6 ist mit einem BrĂ¼ckenelement 7 ausgestattet. Die BrĂ¼ckenelemente 7 der beiden Seitenteile 5 und 6 sind gegeneinander gerichtet und an den beiden den Seitenteilen 5 und 6 abgewandten Endbereichen beweglich miteinander verbunden. Diese Verbindung ist im hier dargestellten AusfĂ¼hrungsbeispiel als Gelenk 8 ausgebildet, die Gelenkachse 9 dieses Gelenkes 8 ist parallel zu den Längsträgern 1 und 2 ausgerichtet. Die beiden Seitenteile 5 und 6 mit den BrĂ¼ckenelementen 7 sind in den Auflagen 4 schwenkbar gehalten, die entsprechenden Schwenkachsen 10 sind ebenfalls parallel zu den Längsträgern 1 und 2 ausgerichtet. Die möglichen Verschwenkbewegungen der Seitenteile 5 und 6 mit den BrĂ¼ckenelementen 7 werden später noch im Detail beschrieben. Wie ebenfalls später noch im Detail beschrieben wird, ist unterhalb der beiden BrĂ¼ckenelemente 7 ein blattfedemförmiges Element 11 angebracht, das Ă¼ber Verstellmittel 12 bzgl. der BrĂ¼ckenelemente 7 unterschiedlich vorspannbar ist.Each side part 5 and 6 is equipped with a bridge element 7. The bridge elements 7 of the two side parts 5 and 6 are directed against each other and movably connected to each other at the two end portions facing away from the side parts 5 and 6. This connection is formed in the illustrated embodiment as a hinge 8, the hinge axis 9 of this joint 8 is aligned parallel to the longitudinal members 1 and 2. The two side parts 5 and 6 with the bridge elements 7 are pivotally supported in the supports 4, the corresponding pivot axes 10 are also aligned parallel to the longitudinal members 1 and 2. The possible pivoting movements of the side parts 5 and 6 with the bridge elements 7 will be described later in detail. As will also be described in detail later, below the two bridge elements 7, a leaf spring-shaped element 11 is attached, which can be prestressed differently via adjusting means 12 with respect to the bridge elements 7.

An den Endbereichen der Ă¼ber die Längsträger 1 und 2 vorstehenden Seitenteile 5 und 6 des StĂ¼tzelementes 3 sind in bekannter Weise Haltemittel 13 angebracht, in welchen die Federleisten 14 gehalten sind, welche die Auflagefläche 15 fĂ¼r eine Obermatratze bilden.At the end portions of the longitudinal members 1 and 2 above side parts 5 and 6 of the support member 3 holding means 13 are mounted in a known manner, in which the spring strips 14 are held, which form the support surface 15 for a mattress top.

Derartige einstellbare StĂ¼tzelemente werden insbesondere im mittleren Bereich eines Bettes eingesetzt, am Kopfende und am Fussende des Bettes ist es durchaus denkbar, einfacher aufgebaute, nicht verstellbare StĂ¼tzelemente einzusetzen.Such adjustable support elements are used in particular in the middle region of a bed, at the head end and at the foot of the bed, it is quite conceivable to use simpler constructed, non-adjustable support elements.

Aus der Schnittdarstellung in Fig. 2 sind die beiden Längsträger 1 und 2, das StĂ¼tzelement 3 mit den Seitenteilen 5 und 6 und den jeweiligen BrĂ¼ckenelementen 7 ersichtlich. Die beiden BrĂ¼ckenelemente 7 sind durch das Gelenk 8 miteinander verbunden. Der jeweilige Seitenteil 5 bzw. 6 mit dem entsprechenden BrĂ¼ckenelement 7 ist jeweils um das Auflager 4 verschwenkbar. Das auf der rechten Seite in Fig. 2 dargestellte Auflager 4 lässt in bekannter Weise eine Seitenbewegung des Seitenteils 6 mit dem entsprechenden BrĂ¼ckenelement 7 zu, um beim Verschwenken, welche nachfolgend noch beschrieben wird, die Längenänderung des StĂ¼tzelements ausgleichen zu können.From the sectional view in Fig. 2 are the two side members 1 and 2, the support member 3 with the side panels 5 and 6 and the respective bridge elements 7 can be seen. The two bridge elements 7 are connected to each other by the hinge 8. The respective side part 5 or 6 with the corresponding bridge element 7 is in each case pivotable about the support 4. The one on the right in Fig. 2 illustrated support 4 leaves in a known manner, a lateral movement of the side part 6 with the corresponding bridge element 7 to, during pivoting, which will be described below, to be able to compensate for the change in length of the support element.

Wenn nun eine Kraft, dargestellt durch Pfeil 16, auf die Federleisten 14 wirkt, beispielsweise durch eine darauf liegende Person, bewirkt diese, insbesondere wenn sie im Seitenbereich des Seitenteils 5 des Bettes wirkt, dass dieser Seitenteil 5 um das Auflager 4 nach unten verschwenkt wird, dargestellt durch Pfeil 17. Die Verschwenkung des Seitenteils 5 um das Auflager 4 bewirkt, dass das an diesem Seitenteil 5 befestigte BrĂ¼ckenelement 7 um das Auflager 4 angehoben wird, dargestellt durch Pfeil 18. Durch die Verbindung der beiden BrĂ¼ckenelemente 7 Ă¼ber das Gelenk 8 wird auch das BrĂ¼ckenelement 7, das am Seitenteil 6 befestigt ist, angehoben, dargestellt durch Pfeil 19. Durch diese Bewegung wird auch der Seitenteil 6 um das Auflager 4 nach unten verschwenkt, dargestellt durch Pfeil 20. Dies bedeutet, dass die Auflagefläche 15 immer waagrecht ausgerichtet ist, unabhängig ob und wo eine Kraft auf die Federleiste 14 ausgeĂ¼bt wird.Now, if a force, represented by arrow 16 acts on the spring strips 14, for example by a person lying on it, this causes, especially if it acts in the side region of the side part 5 of the bed, that this side part 5 is pivoted about the support 4 down , The pivoting of the side part 5 to the support 4 causes the attached to this side part 5 bridge element 7 is raised to the support 4, represented by arrow 18. By the connection of the two bridge elements 7 via the joint 8 is also the bridge element 7, which is attached to the side part 6, raised, represented by arrow 19. By this movement, the side part 6 is pivoted about the support 4 downwards, represented by arrow 20. This means that the support surface 15 is always aligned horizontally is, regardless of whether and where a force is exerted on the spring bar 14.

Um die auf das StĂ¼tzelement 3 wirkende Kraft, dargestellt durch Pfeil 16, elastisch abfedem zu können, ist, wie auch aus Fig. 3 ersichtlich ist, am Gelenk 8 das blattfederförmige Element 11 angelenkt. Die Endbereiche 21 dieses blattfederförmigen Elements 11 wirken mit den Verstellmitteln 12 zusammen. Diese Verstellmittel 12 sind aus jeweils einem Verstellrad 22 gebildet, welche um eine am jeweiligen BrĂ¼ckenelement 7 gelagerte Drehachse 23 drehbar sind. Die hier dargestellten Verstellräder 22 weisen jeweils zwei Bereiche 24 bzw. 25 auf, die aus Abflachungen der Aussenfläche des Verstellrades 22 gebildet sind, wobei jede dieser Abflachungen einen unterschiedlichen Abstand zur Drehachse 23 des Verstellrades 22 aufweist. In der Fig. 2 und 3 sind die Verstellräder 22 jeweils so eingestellt, dass sich der Bereich 24 auf dem biattfederförmigen Element 11 abstĂ¼tzt. Dieser Bereich 24 hat einen grösseren Abstand von der Drehachse 23 des jeweiligen Verstellrades 22, was bedeutet, dass das blattfederförmige Element 11 stark vorgespannt ist, was wiederum bedeutet, dass zum Verschwenken der beiden BrĂ¼ckenelement 7 in Richtung der Pfeile 18 und 19 eine grössere Kraft erforderlich ist, was bedeutet, dass die Härte der Einfederung des StĂ¼tzelements gross ist.In order to be able to absorb the force acting on the support element 3, represented by arrow 16, elastically, is, as well as off Fig. 3 it can be seen on the hinge 8, the leaf spring-shaped element 11 hinged. The end regions 21 of this leaf-spring-shaped element 11 cooperate with the adjusting means 12. These adjusting means 12 are each formed from an adjusting wheel 22, which are rotatable about an axis of rotation 23 mounted on the respective bridge element 7. The adjusting wheels 22 shown here each have two regions 24 and 25, which are formed from flats of the outer surface of the adjusting wheel 22, wherein each of these flats has a different distance from the axis of rotation 23 of the adjusting wheel 22. In the Fig. 2 and 3 the adjusting wheels 22 are each set so that the area 24 is supported on the batt-spring-shaped element 11. This area 24 has a greater distance from the axis of rotation 23 of the respective adjusting wheel 22, which means that the leaf spring-shaped element 11 is strongly biased, which in turn means that for pivoting the two bridge element 7 in the direction of the arrows 18 and 19, a greater force is required, which means that the hardness of the deflection of the support member is large.

Wie aus den Fig. 4 und 5 ersichtlich ist, können die Verstellräder 22 derart um die Drehachse 23 verdreht werden, dass sich der Bereich 25 auf dem blattfederförmigen Element 11 abstĂ¼tzt. Dieser Bereich 25 hat einen geringeren Abstand von der Drehachse 23 des Verstellrades 22, als der Bereich 24, was gleichbedeutend ist, dass das biattfederförmige Element 11 weniger stark vorgespannt ist, was wiederum gleichbedeutend ist, dass die Einfederhärte der StĂ¼tzleiste geringer ist, das Bett ist somit "weicher' eingestellt.Like from the Fig. 4 and 5 it can be seen, the adjusting wheels 22 can be rotated about the rotation axis 23 such that the region 25 is supported on the leaf-spring-shaped element 11. This area 25 has a smaller distance from the axis of rotation 23 of the Verstellrades 22, as the area 24, which is equivalent to that biatted spring-shaped element 11 is less biased, which in turn means that the Einfederhärte the support bar is lower, the bed thus "softer" set.

Selbstverständlich ist es auch möglich, das eine Verstellrad 22 so einzustellen, dass der Bereich 24 sich auf dem blattfederförmigen Element 11 abstĂ¼tzt, während das andere Verstellrad 22 so eingestellt ist, dass der Bereich 25 sich auf den blattfederförmigen Element 11 abstĂ¼tzt, wodurch eine mittlere Vorspannung des blattfederförmigen Elements 11 erreicht wird, was einer mittleren Härte des Bettes entspricht.Of course, it is also possible to adjust an adjusting wheel 22 so that the area 24 is supported on the leaf spring-shaped element 11, while the other adjusting wheel 22 is set so that the area 25 is supported on the leaf spring-shaped element 11, whereby a mean bias of the leaf spring-shaped element 11 is achieved, which corresponds to an average hardness of the bed.

Wie aus den Fig. 2 bis 5 ersichtlich ist, sind die Verstellräder 22 jeweils in einer schlitzförmigen Durchgangsöffnung 26 im BrĂ¼ckenelement 7 angeordnet und Ă¼ber die Oberseitenfläche des BrĂ¼ckenelements 7 vorstehend. Durch diese Anordnung lassen sich die Verstellräder 22 von der Oberseite der Untermatratze, d.h. von der Federleiste 14 her, verstellen. Um sichtbar machen zu können, welche Position das Verstellrad 22 einnimmt, sind an diesem und an der Oberseitenfläche des BrĂ¼ckenelements 7 jeweils Markierungen 27 angebracht, wie aus den Fig. 3 und 5 ersichtlich ist.Like from the Fig. 2 to 5 it can be seen, the adjusting wheels 22 are each arranged in a slot-shaped passage opening 26 in the bridge element 7 and protrude over the top surface of the bridge element 7. As a result of this arrangement, the adjusting wheels 22 can be adjusted from the upper side of the lower mattress, ie from the spring strip 14. In order to make visible, which position the adjusting wheel 22 occupies, markings 27 are respectively attached to this and to the upper surface of the bridge element 7, as shown in FIGS FIGS. 3 and 5 is apparent.

Das Verstellrad 22 ist jeweils mit einer radial ausgerichteten Ă–ffnung 28 ausgestattet, wie aus den Fig. 2 und 4 ersichtlich ist, in welche zum Verstellen der Verstellräder 22 ein Bedienerwerkzeug, beispielsweise ein Schraubenzieher, eingesteckt werden kann, welcher zwischen den Federleisten 14 von oben eingefĂ¼hrt werden kann.The adjusting wheel 22 is in each case equipped with a radially oriented opening 28, as shown in FIGS Fig. 2 and 4 it can be seen in which for adjusting the adjusting wheels 22, an operator tool, such as a screwdriver, can be inserted, which can be inserted between the spring strips 14 from above.

Die beiden Seitenteile 5 und 6 sind mit Anschlagelementen 29 ausgestattet, wie aus den Fig. 2 und 4 entnehmbar ist, welche bei maximaler Belastung des Bettes an den jeweiligen Längsträgern 1 und 2 zur Anlage kommen und die Einfederung begrenzen.The two side parts 5 and 6 are equipped with stop elements 29, as from the Fig. 2 and 4 can be removed, which come at maximum load on the bed to the respective side rails 1 and 2 to the plant and limit the deflection.

Dadurch, dass die Verstellräder 22 Bereiche 24 und 25 aufweisen, die als Abflachungen ausgebildet sind, ist die jeweilige Verstellposition des Verstellrades 22 genau definiert. Diese Abflachungen wirken somit wie Anschläge, welche die entsprechende Einstellbewegung festlegen.Characterized in that the adjusting wheels 22 have regions 24 and 25 which are formed as flats, the respective adjustment position of the adjusting wheel 22 is precisely defined. These flats thus act as stops, which determine the appropriate adjustment movement.

Selbstverständlich sind auch andere Verstellmittel denkbar. So könnte beispielsweise anstelle der Einstellräder 22 jeweils ein Keil eingesetzt werden, der mehr oder weniger zwischen die Endbereiche 21 des blattfederförmigen Elements 11 und dem jeweiligen BrĂ¼ckenelement 7 eingeschoben werden könnten.Of course, other adjustment means are conceivable. For example, instead of the setting wheels 22, a wedge could be used which could be inserted more or less between the end regions 21 of the leaf-spring-shaped element 11 and the respective bridge element 7.

Selbstverständlich ist es auch denkbar, mehr Bereiche am Verstellrad anzubringen, als nur die beiden beschriebenen Bereiche 24 und 25, wodurch die Verstellmöglichkeiten vergrössert wĂ¼rden. Es ist auch denkbar, das Verstellrad 22 jeweils mit einem exzentrischen Bereich zu versehen, dadurch wäre sogar eine stufenlose Verstellung der Vorspannung des blattfederförmigen Elements 11 möglich.Of course, it is also conceivable to install more areas on the adjusting wheel, as only the two described areas 24 and 25, whereby the adjustment would be increased. It is also conceivable to provide the adjusting wheel 22 each with an eccentric region, thereby even a continuous adjustment of the bias of the leaf spring-shaped element 11 would be possible.

Die Verbindung zwischen den BrĂ¼ckenelementen 7 ist beim vorgängig beschriebenen AusfĂ¼hrungsbeispiel als Gelenk ausgestaltet. Selbstverständlich sind auch andere Verbindungsmöglichkeiten denkbar, die ein gegenseitiges Verschwenken der BrĂ¼ckenelemente 7 ermöglichen, beispielsweise könnte anstelle dieses Gelenkes eine blattfederförmige Verbindung eingesetzt werden.The connection between the bridge elements 7 is designed as a joint in the previously described embodiment. Of course, other connection options are conceivable that allow a mutual pivoting of the bridge elements 7, for example, instead of this joint, a leaf spring-shaped connection can be used.

Mit dieser erfindungsgemässen Anordnung erhält man eine Untermatratze, deren Einfederhärte in einfacher Weise und wirksam verstellt werden kann, wodurch ein optimaler Liegekomfort erreicht wird.With this arrangement according to the invention, a lower mattress is obtained, the spring rate of which can be adjusted in a simple and effective manner, whereby an optimum lying comfort is achieved.
