Definitions
- the invention relates to an insert for a bed in the form of a slatted frame with spring slats extending to the longitudinal axis of the bed, each consisting of two superimposed slats of the same length, which are spaced apart by elastic molded bodies, elastic support bodies on the underside of the lower slats are provided, via which the insert is supported on a fixed insert.
- the fixed insert consists of two longitudinal beams, which run at a lateral distance from the ends of the spring slats.
- the invention achieves a harmonious course of the flexibility of the insert with simultaneous limitation of its deflection, in that elastic support bodies are provided at least in the middle of the lower lamellae supported only in the middle and at the ends.
- elastic support bodies are provided at least in the middle of the lower lamellae supported only in the middle and at the ends.
- connection between the support and molded bodies on the one hand and the lamellae on the other hand can also be carried out, as shown in EP-Al-385 121, by covering the elastic bodies with a tissue and pushing the lamellae through lugs of the cover.
- the connection of the support or molded body in the longitudinal direction has the advantage that the spring slats are connected to a uniform grate, which can be easily handled and rolled up, for example.
- a structurally simple solution for the lateral support bodies is characterized in that the elastic support bodies arranged at the ends of the lower slats are in one piece with the shaped bodies designed for spacing the upper and lower slats.
- Elastic support bodies via which spring slats are supported on a fixed insert, are known per se from EP-A-0 274 371. However, they can only be used to hold two slats or to support them on a base. A sufficient elasticity of the shaped body is only given if one of its two bores remains free. Wherever the spring slat is supported, it must always be in one piece. Conversely, a lamella penetrating the second bore can be provided for stiffening the supporting lamella only in the unsupported area.
- a major advantage of the central arrangement of the elastic support bodies for the lower slats according to the invention is that the flexibility of the various spring slats that follow one another in the longitudinal direction of the bed can be varied. If one moves the distancing shaped bodies arranged between the ends of the lamellae and their center towards the ends, the upper lamella bends completely and is held together with the lower lamella essentially by the centrally arranged support body. If, on the other hand, the distancing molded bodies are pushed further towards the center, the spring slats are substantially stiffened, since deflection is only possible if the distancing molded bodies and the centrally arranged support body are compressed. This interplay of lamellae and molded or support bodies works best when the lamellae are not thicker than about 5 6 mm, whereas the molded and support bodies are made of foamed material, in particular of foamed rubber.
- FIG. 1 shows a fixed insert from the side
- FIG. 2 shows the same insert from above
- FIG. 3 shows a slatted frame according to the invention from above
- FIG. 4 shows the inserted slatted frame in cross section through the fixed insert.
- FIG. 5 shows an embodiment for supporting bodies to be arranged at the edge of the lamellae
- FIG. 6 shows a supporting body for arrangement in the central region of the lamellae
- FIG. 7 shows an alternative to FIG. 6.
- the fixed insert 5 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 has two side rails 16 and a center rail 17 on which the slatted frame to be described later can be supported. It is not necessary for the insert 5 to form a completely horizontal base for the slatted frame.
- These spring slats 2 are each constructed from an upper lamella 6 and a lower lamella 7, between which elastic molded bodies 3, 3 'are arranged.
- the lower slats 7 are supported according to the invention via elastic support bodies 4, 4 'either on the side longitudinal members 16 or on the central longitudinal member 17 of the fixed insert 5.
- the structure of the molded body 3, 3 'or support body 4, 4' can be seen more clearly from FIGS. 5 and 6.
- the shaped bodies 3 ', the recesses 10 of which receive the upper and lower lamellae 6 and 7 in a known manner are formed in one piece with the supporting bodies 4' serving for lower support.
- the supporting bodies of spring slats 2 lying next to one another are connected by a common holding strap 8 made of cotton.
- projections can be provided which engage in bores which are provided at the ends of the slats 6, 7.
- the support bodies 4 according to FIG. 6 are formed in the central region of the spring slats 2. They therefore only grip around the upper slats 7 with their upper edge strips 9 and are therefore easily displaceable on them. This easy displaceability is desirable for those moldings which are located between the middle support bodies 4 and the combined support and moldings in the edge region (cf. FIG. 4).
- These shaped bodies 3 can be constructed identically to the supporting body 4 shown in FIG. 6.
- the stiffness of the slatted frame 1 can be varied transversely to the longitudinal direction of the bed by displacing the shaped bodies 3 laterally.
- a supporting body 4 can be provided over the entire length of the insert 1, as shown in FIG. 7.
- this support body it can be covered with a fabric 18 in a known manner, with tabs 19 allowing the slats to be attached.

Abstract
On décrit une insertion pour un lit sous forme d'un sommier à lattes (1) comportant des lattes élastiques (2) s'étendant horizontalement à l'axe longitudinal du lit, lesquelles consistent chaque fois en deux lamelles (6, 7) superposées séparées entre elles au moyen de corps profilés élastiques (3); sur la face inférieure des lamelles du bas (7) de chaque latte élastique (2) sont prévus des corps de support élastiques (4) au-dessus desquels l'insertion (1) s'appuie sur un cadre rigide.An insert for a bed is described in the form of a slatted base (1) comprising elastic slats (2) extending horizontally to the longitudinal axis of the bed, which each time consist of two slats (6, 7) superimposed separated from each other by means of elastic profiled bodies (3); on the underside of the bottom slats (7) of each elastic slat (2) are provided elastic support bodies (4) above which the insert (1) rests on a rigid frame.
