Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Bettrost, mit einem, zwei parallel und abständig zueinander angeordnete Rahmenholme aufweisenden starren Rahmen sowie einer daran schwenkbar angeschlossenen Schenkelstütze, an der eine Fußstütze angelenkt ist.The invention relates to a bed frame with a rigid frame having two parallel and spaced-apart frame bars and a thigh support pivotably connected to it, to which a footrest is articulated.

Ein solcher Bettrahmen ist in der DE 87 07 008 U1 offenbart. Dabei ist die Fußstütze mittels eines Winkelhebels an der Schenkelstütze angeschlossen, während dieser Winkelhebel über ein Koppelglied mit einem Antrieb verbunden ist.Such a bed frame is in the DE 87 07 008 U1 disclosed. The footrest is connected to the thigh support by means of an angle lever, while this angle lever is connected to a drive via a coupling member.

Damit wird die Fußstütze, je nach Verschwenkung des Koppelgliedes in eine gewünschte Winkelstellung gebracht, maximal jedoch in eine zu den Rahmenholmen angehobene parallele Position.Thus, depending on the pivoting of the coupling member, the footrest is brought into a desired angular position, but at most in a position raised parallel to the frame bars.

In Funktion, wenn also der Bettrost in einen Bettkasten eingesetzt ist, ist der unterhalb der Fußstütze gebildete Stauraum auch bei maximal hochgestellter Fußstütze nur beschwerlich nutzbar aufgrund der geringen Zugriffsöffnung. Insoweit entspricht dieser Bettrost nur eingeschränkt den Nutzungswünschen.In operation, i.e. when the bed frame is inserted into a bed box, the storage space formed below the footrest can only be used with difficulty, even when the footrest is raised to the maximum, due to the small access opening. In this respect, this bed frame only meets the usage requirements to a limited extent.

In der DE 102 015 100 675 A1 ist deshalb vorgeschlagen die Fußstütze vom starren Rahmen soweit zu entkoppeln, dass sie nach einer durch einen Antrieb erfolgten aufgeschwenkten Endstellung manuell weiter verschwenkt werden kann, sodass ein freier Zugriff auf den besagten Stauraum des Bettes möglich ist.In the DE 102 015 100 675 A1 It is therefore proposed to decouple the footrest from the rigid frame to such an extent that it can be pivoted further manually after a pivoted end position has been made by a drive, so that free access to said storage space of the bed is possible.

Zur Abstützung der Fußstütze sind an deren Seitenholmen Stützlaschen angelenkt, die die Fußstütze beim Zurückschwenken ab einer bestimmten Schwenkstellung abstützen, wozu innenseitig an den Rahmenholmen Stützlager befestigt sind mit einer Gleitfläche, der entlang die Stützlaschen sowohl beim Ein- wie auch beim Ausschwenken der Fußstütze gleiten.To support the footrest, support tabs are hinged to the side bars, which support the footrest when pivoting back from a certain pivot position, for which purpose support bearings are attached to the inside of the frame bars with a sliding surface that slide along the support tabs when the footrest is pivoted in and out.

Nachteilig bei dieser Konstruktion ist allerdings der erhebliche Fertigungsaufwand, der zu betreiben ist, um insbesondere die Stützlager herzustellen und zu montieren.The disadvantage of this construction, however, is the considerable manufacturing effort that has to be carried out in order to manufacture and assemble the support bearings in particular.

Überdies sind die Stützlaschen derart an den Seitenholmen befestigt, dass sie im Grunde unkontrollierte Bewegungen vollführen, sodass die Gefahr besteht, dass sie insbesondere beim Zurückschwenken der Fußstütze in eine gestreckte Position nicht in die für die Nutzung erforderliche Position gleiten.In addition, the support straps are attached to the side rails in such a way that they basically perform uncontrolled movements, so that there is a risk that they will not slide into the position required for use, especially when the footrest is pivoted back into an extended position.

Aus der US 2006/026763 A1 ist ein Bettrost bekannt, dessen Schenkelstütze, entgegen der Gattung, nicht an Rahmenholmen befestigt ist, sondern einerseits an einer Fußstütze und andererseits an einer Sitzplatte.From the US 2006/026763 A1 a bed frame is known whose thigh support, contrary to the species, is not attached to frame bars, but on the one hand to a footrest and on the other hand to a seat plate.

Die EP 0 364 394 A2 , die DE 698 22 568 T2 , die DE 20 2006 005 301 U1 sowie die DE 201 07 553 U1 zeigen und beschreiben jeweils einen Bettrost, dessen Fußstütze motorisch verschwenkbar ist, wozu ein Stützhebel an einen elektrischen Motor angeschlossen ist, während sich die Fußstütze bevorzugt an einer Rolle oder Walze des Stützhebels abstützt.The EP 0 364 394 A2 , the DE 698 22 568 T2 , the DE 20 2006 005 301 U1 as well as the DE 201 07 553 U1 each show and describe a bed frame, the footrest of which can be pivoted by a motor, for which purpose a support lever is connected to an electric motor, while the footrest is preferably supported on a roller or cylinder of the support lever.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zu Grunde, einen Bettrost der gattungsgemäßen Art so weiter zu entwickeln, dass er einfacher und damit kostengünstiger herstellbar ist und seine Funktion sicherer wird.The invention is based on the object of further developing a bed frame of the generic type in such a way that it can be produced more easily and thus more cost-effectively and its function becomes more reliable.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch einen Bettrost gelöst, bei dem in dem der Fußstütze zugeordneten Bereich der Rahmenholme jeweils ein drehgehemmt verschwenkbarer Stützhebel befestigt ist, dessen freies Ende entgegen der Aufschwenkrichtung der Fußstütze lösbar daran gehalten und bei dem zur Drehhemmung des Stützhebels eine Reib- oder Silikonbremse im Anlenkbereich mit dem Rahmenholm am Stützhebel angeordnet ist.This object is achieved by a bed frame, in which in the area of the frame spars assigned to the footrest there is a rotation-inhibited pivotable support lever, the free end of which is detachably held against the pivoting direction of the footrest, and in which a friction or silicone brake is used to prevent the support lever from rotating Articulation area is arranged with the frame spar on the support lever.

Die zum Stand der Technik beschriebene unkontrollierte Bewegung des Stützhebels ist durch die drehgehemmte Lagerung am Rahmenholmen ausgeschlossen. D. h., nach Erreichen einer maximalen Verschwenkstellung der Fußstütze durch einen Antrieb, bei der der Stützhebel von der Fußstütze mitgeschleppt wird, und einem weiteren manuellen Verschwenken der Fußstütze, verbleibt der Stützhebel in seiner erreichten Position, sodass beim manuellen Zurückführen der Fußstütze der Stützhebel in der zuletzt eingenommenen Stellung wieder mit der Fußstütze in Eingriff kommt.The uncontrolled movement of the support lever described in the prior art is precluded by the rotation-inhibited mounting on the frame bars. That is, after reaching a maximum pivoting position of the footrest by a drive in which the support lever is dragged along by the footrest, and a further manual pivoting of the footrest, the support lever remains in its reached position, so that when the footrest is manually returned, the support lever comes into engagement with the footrest again in the last position assumed.

Entscheidend dabei ist, dass der Stützhebel entgegen der Aufschwenkrichtung der Fußstütze lösbar an der Fußstütze gehalten ist. Hierzu sind sowohl an der Fußstütze wie auch am Stützhebel entsprechende Korrespondenzmittel vorgesehen.The decisive factor here is that the support lever is releasably held on the footrest against the pivoting direction of the footrest. For this purpose, corresponding means of correspondence are provided both on the footrest and on the support lever.

Nach einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist als fußstützseitiges Korrespondenzmittel eine Aufnahmegabel an dem entsprechenden Seitenholm der Fußstütze befestigt, die zum Stützhebel hin offen ist.According to an advantageous further development of the invention, as a correspondence means on the footrest side, a receiving fork is attached to the corresponding side rail of the footrest and is open towards the support lever.

Als Korrespondenzmittel des Stützhebels weist dieser an seinem freien Ende einen Zapfen auf, der in Funktion in die Gabelöffnung eintaucht. Dieses Prinzip ist selbstverständlich auch umkehrbar, d. h., dass dann der Stützhebel an seinem freien, der Fußstütze zugewandten Ende eine Gabelöffnung aufweist, in die dann ein Zapfen der Fußstütze eingreift. Um ein problemloses Eintauchen des Zapfens in die Gabelöffnung zu gewährleisten, sind an der Gabelöffnung Einlaufschrägen vorgesehen.As a correspondence means of the support lever, the latter has a pin at its free end which, when in use, dips into the fork opening. This principle is of course also reversible, i. This means that the support lever then has a fork opening at its free end facing the footrest, into which a pin of the footrest then engages. In order to ensure problem-free immersion of the pin into the fork opening, bevels are provided on the fork opening.

Im Übrigen ist die Gabelöffnung so ausgebildet, dass sie sich zur Öffnungsseite hin verjüngt unter Ausbildung eines flachen Hinterschnitts. Dadurch ist gewährleistet, dass beim Anheben der Fußstütze der Stützhebel mitgeschleppt wird, bis er nach Erreichen einer Endstellung beim folgenden manuellen Verschwenken der Fußstütze aus der Gabelöffnung gleitet.In addition, the fork opening is designed so that it tapers towards the opening side with the formation of a flat undercut. This ensures that when the footrest is raised, the support lever is dragged along until it slides out of the fork opening after reaching an end position when the footrest is subsequently pivoted manually.

Bevorzugt besteht die Aufnahmegabel aus einem Kunststoff und ist mit dem Seitenholm der Fußstütze verschraubt. Der Stützhebel kann als Blechformteil ausgebildet und mit dem Rahmen, gleichfalls durch Verschrauben, verbunden sein. In jedem Fall ist die fertigungstechnische Realisierung sowohl des Stützhebels wie auch der Aufnahmegabel mit äußerst geringem Aufwand und damit kostenoptimiert möglich.The receiving fork is preferably made of a plastic and is screwed to the side rail of the footrest. The support lever can be designed as a shaped sheet metal part and connected to the frame, likewise by screwing. In any case, the production-related realization of both the support lever and the receiving fork is possible with extremely little effort and thus cost-effectively.

Die Drehhemmung des Stützhebels erfolgt bspw. über eine Reibbremse, die unterschiedlich gestaltet sein kann. Denkbar ist eine Konstruktion, bei der beidseitig des Stützhebels Reibscheiben angeordnet sind, die, insbesondere durch mindestens eine Druckfeder, bevorzugt eine Tellerfeder gegen den Stützhebel pressbar sind, wobei zur Verspannung eine Schraube sowohl durch die Druckfeder wie auch durch die Reibscheiben und den Stützhebel geführt ist. Eine solche Reibbremse ist in der DE 10 2015 113 749 A1 thematisiert.The support lever is prevented from rotating, for example, via a friction brake, which can be designed in different ways. A construction is conceivable in which friction disks are arranged on both sides of the support lever, which can be pressed against the support lever, in particular by at least one compression spring, preferably a plate spring, a screw being guided both through the compression spring and through the friction disks and the support lever for bracing purposes . Such a friction brake is in the DE 10 2015 113 749 A1 thematized.

In an sich bekannter Weise erfolgt die Verschwenkung der Schenkelstütze und davon abhängig der Fußstütze mittels eines motorischen Antriebs, üblicherweise ein Elektroantrieb, der einerseits an der Schenkelstütze und andererseits am Rahmen gehalten ist, wobei hierzu jeweils ein die entsprechenden Holme miteinander verbindendes stangenförmiges Bauteil vorgesehen ist.In a manner known per se, the thigh support and, depending on it, the footrest are pivoted by means of a motor drive, usually an electric drive, which is held on the one hand on the thigh support and on the other hand on the frame, a rod-shaped component connecting the corresponding spars being provided for this purpose.

Eine andere Lösung dazu wird durch die Erfindung angeboten. Dabei greift der Antrieb nicht unmittelbar an der Schenkelstütze an, sondern an einem Winkelhebel, der schwenkbar an einem Rahmenholm befestigt ist, wobei an einem Hebelschenkel der Motor angelenkt ist, während das freie Ende des anderen Schenkels sich an der Unterseite der Schenkelstütze gleitend abstützt. Für ein reibungsarmes Gleiten ist der Hebelarm mit einer Gleitkappe versehen, auf der die Schenkelstütze aufliegt.Another solution to this is offered by the invention. The drive does not act directly on the thigh support, but on an angle lever that is pivotably attached to a frame spar, the motor being articulated on one lever arm, while the free end of the other arm is slidably supported on the underside of the thigh support. For low-friction sliding, the lever arm is provided with a sliding cap on which the thigh support rests.

Die Anbindung des Motors im vorgenannten Sinn ist auch bei einer weiteren erfindungsgemäßen Ausbildung gegeben, bei der ebenfalls ein Winkelhebel Verwendung findet. Allerdings ist das freie Ende des der Schenkelstütze zugeordneten Schenkels des Winkelhebels mit einer Lenkerlasche verdrehbar verbunden, die andererseits an der Schenkelstütze befestigt ist.The connection of the motor in the aforementioned sense is also given in a further embodiment according to the invention, in which an angle lever is also used. However, the free end of the leg of the angle lever assigned to the thigh support is rotatably connected to a link bracket which, on the other hand, is attached to the thigh support.

Weitere vorteilhafte Ausbildungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen gekennzeichnet.Further advantageous developments of the invention are characterized in the subclaims.

In der Figur 1 ist ein nicht komplettierter Bettrost abgebildet, bei dem auf die Darstellung von in Gebrauch eine Matratze tragenden Latten verzichtet ist.In the Figure 1 a non-completed bed frame is shown, in which slats carrying a mattress are not shown in use.

Dieser Bettrost weist einen starren Rahmen 1 auf, mit zwei parallel abständig zueinander angeordneten Rahmenholmen 2, die durch Streben miteinander verbunden sind, eine Schenkelstütze 3 mit Seitenholmen 6, von denen jeder an einem der Rahmenholme 2 schwenkbar gehalten ist, sowie mit einer Fußstütze 4, gleichfalls mit zwei parallel und abständig zueinander angeordneten Seitenholmen 5.This bed frame has a rigid frame 1, with two frame bars 2 which are arranged parallel and spaced apart from one another and which are connected to one another by struts, a leg support 3 with side bars 6, each of which is held pivotably on one of the frame spars 2, as well as with a footrest 4, likewise with two side spars 5 arranged parallel and spaced from one another.

Diese Fußstütze 4 ist mittels eines Scharniergelenks 7 schwenkbar an der Schenkelstütze 3 befestigt, wobei die beiden Seitenholme 6 der Schenkelstütze 3 durch eine Stange 9 miteinander verbunden sind. Daran greift ein Antrieb 8 in Form eines Elektromotors an, der am Rahmen 1 gehalten ist. Es handelt sich hierbei beispielsweise um einen sogenannten Linearantrieb, bei dem sich ein Stößel beim Betätigen des Motors translatorisch aus dem Antriebsgehäuse hinaus oder wieder hinein schiebt, wodurch sich das Einbau-Längenmaß des Antriebs ändert.This footrest 4 is pivotably attached to the thigh support 3 by means of a hinge joint 7, the two side bars 6 of the thigh support 3 being connected to one another by a rod 9. A drive 8 in the form of an electric motor, which is held on the frame 1, acts on this. This is, for example, a so-called linear drive, in which a plunger slides translationally out of the drive housing or back in when the motor is actuated, which changes the installation length of the drive.

Der Antrieb weist eine erste Lagerstelle am Antriebsgehäuse und eine zweite Lagerstelle am Stößel auf.The drive has a first bearing point on the drive housing and a second bearing point on the plunger.

Die erste Lagerstelle des motorischen Antriebs 8 ist gegenüber dem Rahmen 1 verschwenkbar gehalten, während die zweite Lagerstelle an einer Stange 9 gehalten ist, die die Seitenholme 6 der Schenkelstütze 3 miteinander verbindet.The first bearing point of the motor drive 8 is held pivotably with respect to the frame 1, while the second bearing point is held on a rod 9 which connects the side rails 6 of the thigh support 3 to one another.

Gemäß der Erfindung ist in dem der Fußstütze 4 zugeordneten Bereich der Rahmenholme 2 jeweils ein drehgehemmt verschwenkbarer Stützhebel 10 angelenkt, dessen freies Ende entgegen der Aufschwenkrichtung A der Fußstütze 4 lösbar daran gehalten ist.According to the invention, in the area of the frame spars 2 associated with the footrest 4, a rotation-inhibited pivotable support lever 10 is articulated, the free end of which is releasably held thereon against the pivoting direction A of the footrest 4.

In der Figur 2 sind die Schenkelstütze 3 und die Fußstütze 4 in gestreckter Lage dargestellt. Dabei ist erkennbar, dass der Stützhebel 10 an dem der Fußstütze 4 zugeordneten freien Ende einen Zapfen 12 aufweist, der in dieser Stellung in eine Gabelöffnung 19 einer Aufnahmegabel 11 einliegt, die über einen Anschlusswinkel 28 (Figur 4) am Seitenholm 5 der Fußstütze 4 befestigt ist. Die Gabelöffnung 19 ist so gestaltet, dass sie sich zur Öffnungsseite hin verjüngt. Die beiden die Gabelöffnung begrenzenden Schenkel sind zur Einführseite des Zapfens 12 hin als Einführschräge oder Einführrundung gestaltet. Denkbar ist auch, die die Gabelöffnung begrenzenden Schenkel parallel zueinander auszurichten.In the Figure 2 the thigh support 3 and the footrest 4 are shown in the extended position. It can be seen that the support lever 10 has a pin 12 at the free end assigned to the footrest 4, which in this position rests in a fork opening 19 of a receiving fork 11 which is connected via a connection bracket 28 ( Figure 4 ) is attached to the side rail 5 of the footrest 4. The fork opening 19 is designed so that it tapers towards the opening side. The two legs delimiting the fork opening are designed as an insertion bevel or an insertion rounded toward the insertion side of the pin 12. It is also conceivable to align the legs delimiting the fork opening parallel to one another.

Die Aufnahmegabel 11 besteht bevorzugt aus Kunststoff. Denkbar ist aber auch, die Aufnahmegabel 11 aus einem anderen Material wie beispielsweise Stahl zur fertigen.The receiving fork 11 is preferably made of plastic. However, it is also conceivable to manufacture the receiving fork 11 from a different material such as steel.

Der Stützhebel 10 ist in einer Drehachse 20 gegenüber dem Rahmenholm 2 gelagert. Die Lagerstelle wird im gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel gebildet durch die Gelenkverbindung des Stützhebels 10 mit einer Befestigungslasche 29, die mittels geeigneter Befestigungselemente ortsfest am Rahmenholm 2 angebracht ist.The support lever 10 is mounted in an axis of rotation 20 opposite the frame spar 2. In the exemplary embodiment shown, the bearing point is formed by the articulated connection of the support lever 10 with a fastening strap 29 which is fixedly attached to the frame spar 2 by means of suitable fastening elements.

Die Befestigungslasche 29 besteht aus zwei aneinander geschichteten gegensinnig gekröpften Laschen 15, deren gekröpfte Enden durch Bohrungen die Drehachse 20 ausbilden.The fastening lug 29 consists of two oppositely cranked lugs 15 stacked on top of one another, the cranked ends of which form the axis of rotation 20 through bores.

In der Figur 3 ist eine Position der Schenkelstütze 3 und der Fußstütze 4 abgebildet, wie sie sich beim Aufschwenken der Schenkelstütze 3 mittels des Antriebs 8 ergibt.In the Figure 3 a position of the thigh support 3 and the footrest 4 is shown as it results when the thigh support 3 is pivoted open by means of the drive 8.

Gegenüber der in der Figur 2 gezeigten Abbildung ist erkennbar, dass die beim Hochschwenken der Schenkelstütze 3 abgewinkelt dazu angehobene Fußstütze 4, den Stützhebel 10 aufgrund seiner formschlüssigen Einlage in der Gabelöffnung 19 mitschleppt bis in eine durch den Antrieb 8 vorgegebene Endstellung.Compared to the one in the Figure 2 It can be seen that the footrest 4, which is raised at an angle to it when the thigh support 3 is pivoted upwards, drags the support lever 10 along with it due to its interlocking insert in the fork opening 19 up to an end position predetermined by the drive 8.

Ausgehend von dieser Position kann die Fußstütze 4 manuell weiter aufgeschwenkt werden, wie dies in der Figur 5 dargestellt ist, bei gleichzeitigem Verharren des Stützhebels 10 in seiner zuletzt eingenommenen Stellung.Starting from this position, the footrest 4 can be pivoted further manually, as shown in FIG Figure 5 is shown, with the support lever 10 remaining in its last position.

Durch die drehgehemmte Lagerung bleibt der Stützhebel 10 in dieser Position, bis die Fußstütze 4 zurück geschwenkt wird und der Zapfen 12 in die Gabelöffnung 19 der Aufnahmegabel 11 eintaucht.As a result of the rotation-inhibited mounting, the support lever 10 remains in this position until the footrest 4 is pivoted back and the pin 12 dips into the fork opening 19 of the receiving fork 11.

In der Figur 5 ist eine Position erkennbar, wie sie die Fußstütze 4 nach einem manuellen Hochschwenken einnimmt. Damit wird ein freier, ungehinderter Durchgriff durch den Rahmen 1 und damit in einen Stauraum eines darunter liegenden nicht dargestellten Bettkastens möglich.In the Figure 5 a position can be seen as it assumes the footrest 4 after a manual pivoting up. This enables free, unimpeded access through the frame 1 and thus into a storage space of a bed box underneath, not shown.

Eine Position der Fußstütze 4 wie sie während des Abschwenkens eingenommen wird, ist in der Figur 6 dargestellt. Hier ist zu sehen, dass der Zapfen 12 des Stützhebels 10 an der Einführrundung der Gabelöffnung 19 anliegt und im weiteren Verlauf durch die Schwenkbewegung der Fußstütze 4 in den hinteren Bereich der Gabelöffnung 19 gelangt, wo er eine Abstützung für die Fußstütze 4 bildet, entsprechend der Figur 2.A position of the footrest 4 as it is assumed during pivoting is shown in FIG Figure 6 shown. Here it can be seen that the pin 12 of the support lever 10 rests against the insertion curve of the fork opening 19 and in the further course of the pivoting movement of the footrest 4 reaches the rear area of the fork opening 19, where it forms a support for the footrest 4, according to the Figure 2 .

In der Figur 4b) ist beispielhaft als Einzelheit in einem vergrößerten Ausschnitt eine Reibbremse 13 abgebildet, die der Drehhemmung des Stützhebels 10 dient, während die Figur 4a) einen Gesamtschnitt wiedergibt.In the Figure 4b ) a friction brake 13 is shown as an example as a detail in an enlarged section, which is used to prevent rotation of the support lever 10, while the Figure 4a ) reproduces an overall section.

Die Reibbremse 13 ist in der Drehachse 20 angeordnet und weist beidseitig des Stützhebels 10 in dessen Anlenkbereich zum Rahmenholm 2 jeweils eine Reibscheibe 14 auf, die mittels einer Druckfeder in Form einer Tellerfeder 16 und einer Schraube 17 gegen den Stützhebel 10 verspannt sind. Die beiden Enden der Laschen 15 der Befestigungslasche 29 umfassen die Reibscheiben 14 und den Stützhebel 10. Die Tellerfeder 16 stützt sich am Kopf der Schraube 17 ab, während eine auf die Schraube aufgedrehte Mutter 18 die weiteren Bauteile axial sichert und gegeneinander vorspannt.The friction brake 13 is arranged in the axis of rotation 20 and has a friction disk 14 on both sides of the support lever 10 in its articulation area to the frame member 2, which are braced against the support lever 10 by means of a compression spring in the form of a plate spring 16 and a screw 17. The two ends of the tabs 15 of the fastening tab 29 include the friction disks 14 and the support lever 10. The plate spring 16 is supported on the head of the screw 17, while a nut 18 screwed onto the screw axially secures the other components and biases them against one another.

Der Wert der Drehhemmung bzw. das Reibmoment der Reibbremse 13 kann durch das Anzugsmoment der Schraubverbindung eingestellt werden.The value of the rotation inhibition or the frictional torque of the friction brake 13 can be set by the tightening torque of the screw connection.

Bei dem in der Figur 7 gezeigten Beispiel ist der in dieser Figur nicht dargestellte Antrieb an einem gekröpften Schenkel 22 eines Winkelhebels 21 angeschlossen, der über eine Gelenkwelle 25 am Rahmen 1 schwenkbar befestigt ist.The one in the Figure 7 In the example shown, the drive, not shown in this figure, is connected to a cranked leg 22 of an angle lever 21 which is pivotably attached to the frame 1 via a cardan shaft 25.

Es handelt sich hierbei beispielsweise um einen Antrieb, dessen Gehäuse am Rahmen 1 des Bettrosts oder an Beschlagteilen ortsfest oder verschwenkbar angeordnet ist, wobei ein Druckstößel des Antriebs den Schenkel 22 mit der Antriebskraft beaufschlagt, wodurch die Gelenkwelle 25 mit dem Winkelhebel 21 in Relation zum Rahmen 1 in Rotation versetzt wird.This is, for example, a drive, the housing of which is fixed or pivotable on the frame 1 of the bed frame or on fitting parts, with a pressure ram of the drive applying the drive force to the leg 22, whereby the articulated shaft 25 with the angle lever 21 in relation to the frame 1 is set in rotation.

Ein zweiter Schenkel 23 des Winkelhebels 21 trägt an seinem freien Ende eine Gleitkappe 24 an der die Schenkelstütze 3, d. h. deren Seitenholme 6 anliegen. Entsprechend dem sich verändernden Schwenkwinkel der Schenkelstütze 3 gleitet diese auf der Gleitkappe.A second leg 23 of the angle lever 21 carries at its free end a sliding cap 24 on which the leg support 3, d. H. whose side bars 6 are in contact. According to the changing pivot angle of the thigh support 3, it slides on the sliding cap.

Auch bei dem in der Figur 8 gezeigten Beispiel greift der nicht gezeigte Antrieb an dem gekröpften ersten Schenkel 22 des Winkelhebels 21 an. Am zweiten Schenkel 23 ist an dem der Schenkelstütze 3 zugeordneten Ende schwenkbar eine Lenkerlasche 26 angeschlossen, an der wiederrum ein mit dem Seitenholm 6 der Schenkelstütze 3 verbundenes Auflager 27 angelenkt ist.Even with the one in the Figure 8 In the example shown, the drive (not shown) acts on the cranked first leg 22 of the angle lever 21. On the second leg 23, at the end assigned to the leg support 3, a link bracket 26 is pivotably connected, to which a support 27 connected to the side member 6 of the leg support 3 is articulated.

Anstelle der gelenkigen Anordnung des Stützhebels 10 an der Befestigungslasche 29 kann der Stützhebel 10 auch direkt am Rahmenholm 2 angelenkt sein, beispielsweise mittels einer Schraubverbindung, beziehungsweise unter Nutzung der Reibbremse 13.Instead of the articulated arrangement of the support lever 10 on the fastening strap 29, the support lever 10 can also be articulated directly on the frame spar 2, for example by means of a screw connection or using the friction brake 13.

Die Verwendung des Begriffes Bettrost in dieser Anmeldung umfasst auch andere Arten von Möbelgestellen, bei welchen die Erfindung angewendet werden kann, wie beispielsweise Sitz- oder Liegemöbel, Polstermöbel, Boxspringbetten, Camping- oder Freizeitmöbel.The use of the term bed frame in this application also includes other types of furniture frames to which the invention can be applied, such as seating or reclining furniture, upholstered furniture, box spring beds, camping or leisure furniture.
