Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a lighting device for an elevating bed that can be housed in the ceiling.

[Prior art and problems to be solved by the invention] Today, some of these types of elevating beds have guide rails installed vertically in the room that guide the corners of the bed frame up and down, so that when not in use, the beds rise toward the ceiling. At least there are things that can be stored.

By the way, in such an elevating bed, it is necessary to install a lighting fixture to illuminate the bedside area for reading, etc. when the bed is used, or to illuminate the bottom of the bed frame when it is stored. There is. However, conventionally, elevating beds were not equipped with such lighting devices.
Therefore, there is the trouble of having to prepare separate lighting devices. Furthermore, when installing these lighting devices, it is necessary to take into consideration that they do not interfere with the raising and lowering of the bed frame, and that guide rails are sometimes installed so that there are no gaps in the wall surface. , there are no proposals that take this kind of thing into consideration.

[Means for solving the problem] In view of the above-mentioned circumstances, the present invention was devised for the purpose of providing a lighting device for an elevating bed that can eliminate these drawbacks. A guide body was provided protruding in the front-rear direction of the bed frame, which is the direction of extension of a person lying on the bed frame, and the guide body was installed vertically in the room so that the groove-shaped guide groove opening faced the front-rear direction. In the elevating bed configured such that the bed frame can be raised and lowered by being guided in the guide groove of the guide rail so as to be raised and lowered, a pair of left and right guide rails on the head side of the guide rails are opposed to each other. Auxiliary rails each having an opening on the opposite side are integrally provided on the inner plate with dimensions set to fit within the front and rear width of the guide rail, and lighting devices are provided in the mutually opposing auxiliary guide grooves of both of these auxiliary rails. The left and right ends of the base plate are guided so as to be movable up and down, and the base plate is provided with rods that move in and out in the left and right directions by operating the operating handle, and the protruding rods are removably engaged with the auxiliary rails. It is characterized by having locking holes drilled at appropriate intervals.

With this configuration, the present invention makes it possible to mount a vertically movable lighting device by effectively utilizing the guide rail.

[Example] Next, an example of the present invention will be described based on the drawings. In the drawings, reference numeral 1 denotes a bed frame of an elevating bed, and the bed frame 1 is formed into a rectangular shape with four side plates and a bottom plate. Guide body 1 facing the direction of extension of a person lying on bed frame 1
A is provided protrudingly. On the other hand, 2 is a guide rail installed vertically in the room, with one pair on the left and right on the front side of the bed frame 1 (the side of the head of a person lying on its side), and one pair on the left and right on the rear side (on the side of the feet of the person lying on its side). These guide rails 2 have groove-shaped guides that are open on the guide rail 2 sides that face each other in the front and back (the rear side of the front guide rail 2 and the front side of the rear guide rail 2). A groove 2a is formed. The guide bodies 1a of the bed pedestal 1 are fitted into the guide grooves 2a so as to be vertically movable, so that the bed pedestal 1 can be moved up and down. In addition, 2c is a reinforcing stay installed between the upper ends of each guide rail 2,
3 is a drive box in which a drive device is installed, and 4 is a building frame such as a wall surface.

The pair of left and right front guide rails 2 are erected along the same wall surface 4 with no gap between them, and the inner plates of these front guide rails 2 are opposite to each other in the left and right directions. In 2b,
An auxiliary rail 5 having a substantially U-shaped horizontal section and having an auxiliary guide groove 5b open on the opposite side is integrally assembled. The auxiliary rail 5 has a longitudinal width narrower than that of the front guide rail 2, and is set so as not to protrude from the front guide rail 2 in the longitudinal direction. Furthermore, a plurality of locking holes 5a are bored at predetermined intervals in the groove bottom of the auxiliary guide groove 5b, into which fixing rods 6, which will be described later, are removably locked.

On the other hand, 7 is a base plate to which a lighting device 8 such as a fluorescent lamp is attached, and both left and right edges of the base plate 7 are loosely fitted into the auxiliary guide groove 5b of the auxiliary rail 5 so as to be vertically movable. , springs 9 biased in a direction to press the bottom of the auxiliary guide groove 5b are attached to both left and right edges of the base plate 7, and the biasing force of the springs 9 causes the base plate 7 to Auxiliary rail 5
It can be temporarily fixed at any height. Reference numeral 10 denotes a fixing device for the base plate 7. In this fixing device 10, when the operating handle 11 is rotated 90 degrees, a cam 12 swings, thereby causing the left and right rods 6 to slide in the left-right direction. Then, the rod tip 6a
The base plate 7 is configured to project from and retract from both left and right edges of the base plate 7. The base plate 7 can be fixed at a desired height position of the auxiliary rail 5 by locking the rod tip 6a projecting in the left-right direction in this manner into the corresponding locking hole 5a. There is.

In the embodiment of the present invention constructed as described above, the base plate 7 on which the lighting fixture 8 is attached is
By moving the rod up and down along the auxiliary rail 5 to an appropriate position and further rotating the operating handle 11 to lock the rod tip 6a in the locking hole 5a,
The lighting fixture 8 can be fixed at a desired height.
Therefore, no matter what height the bed is used at, the lighting fixture 8 can be easily moved to an appropriate position corresponding to the height and fixed at that position, so that the bedside can always be brightened. Further, when the bed frame 1 is housed in the ceiling, it is convenient to move the lighting fixture 8 below the bed frame 1 so that there is no need to prepare a separate light for reading or the like.

In this way, in the present invention, the lighting fixture 8 is provided on the elevating bed so that it can be raised and lowered freely. Since the auxiliary rail 5 is configured to be vertically guided up and down by a guide groove 2a opened in the guide rail 2 so as to face in the front-rear direction, the auxiliary rail 5 can be moved up and down in the dead space between the inner plates 2b of the front guide rail 2 that face each other from side to side. As a result, the dead space can be used effectively, and the auxiliary rail 5 does not interfere with the raising and lowering of the bed frame 1. Further, since the dimensions of the auxiliary rail 5 are set to fit within the front and rear width of the guide rail 2, there is no problem even when the guide rail 2 is installed on the wall surface 4 without any gaps. Moreover, since the auxiliary rail 5 is assembled to the guide rail 2 necessary for raising and lowering the bed frame 1, the members can be used effectively, and
This means that it can also serve as reinforcement for the guide rail 2.

It should be noted that the present invention is of course not limited to the above-mentioned embodiment, and it is also possible to attach an option such as a shelf to the auxiliary rail 5 together with a lighting device.

[Operations and Effects] In summary, since the present invention is constructed as described above, the lighting device is guided and locked to the auxiliary rail in a vertically movable manner, so that the bed can be used at any height. The lighting device can be moved and locked in the appropriate position corresponding to the situation.
You can brighten the bedside area whenever you need it. Furthermore, when the bed frame is housed in the ceiling, it is convenient to move the lighting device below the bed frame so that there is no need to separately prepare lighting even in a place that is in the shadow of the bed frame.

Moreover, the elevating bed is configured such that the guide body protruding in the front-rear direction of the bed base is guided by the guide groove opened in the guide rail so as to face the front-rear direction. The auxiliary rail for the illumination device is provided so as to fit in the dead space between the mutually opposing inner plates of the guide rail, so that the dead space can be used effectively and the auxiliary rail does not interfere with the raising and lowering of the bed frame. None. Moreover, the auxiliary rail is contained within the front and rear width of the guide rail, and does not protrude in front of the guide rail.
Even if the guide rail is installed so that there are no gaps on the wall, it will not cause any problems, and it can be easily installed on existing rails that have already been built so that there are no gaps on the wall. can. Furthermore, the auxiliary rail can be incorporated using the same guide rail that is necessary for raising and lowering the bed pedestal, making it possible to use the parts effectively and making it easy to install.It is also an excellent feature that can also serve as reinforcement for the guide rail. It is something.
