Definitions

  • 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.
  • 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.
  • the footrest is brought into a desired angular position, but at most in a position raised parallel to the frame bars.
  • 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.
  • this bed frame only meets the usage requirements to a limited extent.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • the decisive factor here is that the support lever is releasably held on the footrest against the pivoting direction of the footrest.
  • corresponding means of correspondence are provided both on the footrest and on the support lever.
  • a receiving fork is attached to the corresponding side rail of the footrest and is open towards the support lever.
  • the support lever 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.
  • the support lever then has a fork opening at its free end facing the footrest, into which a pin of the footrest then engages.
  • bevels are provided on the fork opening.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • the support lever is prevented from rotating, for example, via a friction brake, which can be designed in different ways.
  • a friction brake which can be designed in different ways.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • the lever arm is provided with a sliding cap on which the thigh support rests.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • FIG. 1 a non-completed bed frame is shown, in which slats carrying a mattress are not shown in use.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • the drive has a first bearing point on the drive housing and a second bearing point on the plunger.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • the thigh support 3 and the footrest 4 are shown in the extended position.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • the support lever 10 is mounted in an axis of rotation 20 opposite the frame spar 2.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • FIG Figure 6 A position of the footrest 4 as it is assumed during pivoting is shown in FIG Figure 6 shown.
  • 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 .
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • the drive 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • the drive acts on the cranked first leg 22 of the angle lever 21.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
