Diese Aufgabe wird durch die im Anspruch 1 angegebene Lehre gelöst.This object is achieved by the teaching defined in
Die Erfindung löst sich von dem Gedanken, die Antriebseinheit unterhalb des Grundkörpers der Stützeinrichtung anzuordnen, wie dies bei den bekannten Stützeinrichtungen der Fall ist. Ihr liegt vielmehr der Gedanke zugrunde, die Antriebseinheit so anzuordnen, daß sie in Einbaulage in Vertikalrichtung zwischen der Welle und den Stützteilen angeordnet ist. Hierzu sieht die Erfindung vor, daß die Antriebseinheit von der Stützseite her auf die Welle aufgesetzt ist.The invention is based on the idea to arrange the drive unit below the main body of the support means, as is the case in the known support means. Rather, it is based on the idea to arrange the drive unit so that it is arranged in the installed position in the vertical direction between the shaft and the support members. For this purpose, the invention provides that the drive unit is mounted on the shaft from the support side.
Auf diese Weise ist die Antriebseinheit zwischen der Welle und den Stützteilen aufgenommen, so daß sie nicht oder nur unwesentlich über den Grundkörper der Stützeinrichtung hervorsteht. Somit ist die Bauhöhe der erfindungsgemäßen Stützeinrichtung wesentlich verringert und im wesentlichen noch durch die Bauhöhe des Grundkörpers der Stützeinrichtung bestimmt.In this way, the drive unit is received between the shaft and the support members, so that it does not or only slightly protrudes beyond the main body of the support means. Thus, the overall height of the support device according to the invention is substantially reduced and essentially determined by the height of the main body of the support means.
Aufgrund der geringen Bauhöhe der Stützeinrichtung ist ein in Einbaulage der Stützeinrichtung, beispielsweise an einem Bett, unterhalb der Stützeinrichtung gebildeter Raum nutzbar, beispielsweise zum Verstauen von Gegenständen, da dieser Raum nicht oder nur in unwesentlichem Maße von der Antriebseinheit eingenommen wird.Due to the low overall height of the support means in a mounting position of the support means, for example, on a bed, formed below the support means space, for example, for stowing objects, as this space occupied or not to an insignificant extent by the drive unit becomes.

Auf diese Weise ergibt sich ein stabiler und robuster Aufbau.A development of the teaching according to the invention provides that the shaft is mounted on the main body of the support means. This results in a stable and robust construction.
Eine andere Weiterbildung der erfindungsgemäßen Lehre sieht vor, daß mit der Welle drehfest ein Schwenkhebel verbunden ist, der zum Verschwenken desselben mit einem Antriebsmotor der Antriebseinheit in Antriebsverbindung steht. Auf diese Weise ist die Verstelleinrichtung der erfindungsgemäßen Stützeinrichtung besonders einfach im Aufbau und damit kostengünstig herstellbar. Außerdem sind bei dieser Ausführungsform mit der Verstelleinrichtung besonders hohe Kräfte aufbringbar, was insbesondere dann von Vorteil ist, wenn die Stützeinrichtung unter Last, beispielsweise unter dem Gewicht einer auf ihr ruhenden Person, verstellt werden soll.Another development of the teaching of the invention provides that a pivot lever is rotatably connected to the shaft, which is the same for pivoting with a drive motor of the drive unit in drive connection.

Grundsätzlich ist es ausreichend, daß die Stützeinrichtung eine einzige, mit einem zu verstellenden Stützteil in Wirkungsverbindung stehende Welle aufweist. Zweckmäßigerweise sind jedoch zwei drehbar gelagerte Wellen vorgesehen, wobei jeder Welle eine Ausnehmung in dem Gehäuse der Antriebseinheit zugeordnet ist. Durch Verwendung von zwei Wellen, von denen jede mit wenigstens einem zu verstellenden Stützteil in Wirkungsverbindung steht, ergeben sich vielfältige Verstellmöglichkeiten, beispielsweise eines Lattenrostes, der ein Oberkörperstützteil, ein Kopfstützteil, ein Beinstützteil und ein Wadenstützteil aufweist, die relativ zu einem mittleren Stützteil verstellbar sind.In principle, it is sufficient that the support means has a single, in operative connection with a support member to be adjusted shaft.

Bei dieser Ausführungsform arbeitet der erfindungsgemäße Möbelantrieb der erfindungsgemäßen Stützeinrichtung nach Art eines Flaschenzuges. Aufgrunddessen können auch bei Verwendung kleiner und damit kostengünstiger Antriebsmotoren, beispielsweise Elektromotoren, von der Antriebseinheit des Möbelantriebes hohe Kräfte aufgebracht werden. Durch die Verwendung kleiner und damit kostengünstiger Antriebsmotoren ist der erfindungsgemäße Möbelantrieb insgesamt einfach und damit kostengünstig gestaltet. Außerdem ist er kompakt im Aufbau.An extremely advantageous development of the teaching of the invention provides that the drive unit is arranged on a first part of the furniture, that the drive unit has a take-up device for a band, rope or chain-shaped traction means, the manner of a pulley over at least one of the housing or another, arranged at adjusting the support member relative to the first part fixed part guide pulley and at least one arranged on the support member to be adjusted or with this part for adjusting the same in operative connection intermediate part deflecting roller, wherein the traction means with the associated, to adjusting support member is operatively connected in such a way that upon winding of the traction means is carried out an adjustment of the support member.
