- the third lever 98 comes to rest on the end of the slot guide 100 facing the lever pivot axis 6, so that a further translational movement in the direction of the lever pivot axis 86 is prevented and the third lever 98 is also pivoted counterclockwise.
- the support part 6 lifts off the second lever 92 at the first connection point 90, with the second connection point 96 shifting in the direction of the free end of the support part 6, as shown in FIG. 9.7.
- Fig. 9.8 shows the end position of the adjustment movement.
- levers 84 and the third lever 98 have a relatively large length, while the second lever 92 is designed as a relatively short connecting lever.
- the lengths of levers 84, 92 and 98 are dimensioned such that the length of first lever 84 plus the length of second lever 92 equals the length of the third lever plus the distance between lever pivot axis 86 and the end of slotted guide 100 remote from lever pivot axis 86 along the corresponds to the linear axis.
- the third lever 98 consists of two parallel lever parts which are spaced apart from one another in the axial direction of the lever pivot axis 86 and between which, in the starting position of the adjustment movement, the second lever 92 and the lever 92 facing the second lever 92 End of the first lever 84 are received, as can be seen from Fig. 9.1.
- FIGS. 10.1 to 10.7 A further exemplary embodiment of a support device according to the invention using a lever mechanism 102 is shown in FIGS. 10.1 to 10.7.
- FIGS. 10.2 and 10.3 show the support device 2 in the starting position of the adjustment movement.
- 10.4 to 10.7 are schematic views to clarify the kinematic phases of the adjustment movement in this embodiment.
- the support device 2 has a base part 4 and a support part 6 which is connected to the base part 4 so that it can pivot about a support part pivot axis 8 .
- an electric motor drive device (furniture drive) is provided, which in drive Connection with an adjusting element that is translationally movable along a linear axis.
- the lever mechanism 102 has a one-armed first lever 104 which is mounted on the base part 4 so that it can swivel about a stationary lever swivel axis 106 parallel to the support part swivel axis 8 .
- the lever mechanism 102 also has a two-armed second lever 108 , the free end of the first lever 104 facing away from the lever pivot axis 106 being articulated about a first lever joint axis 110 to the second lever 108 remote from its ends.
- One end of the second lever 108 is guided in a linear guide 112 so as to be translationally movable relative to the lever pivot axis 106 , while the other end of the second lever 108 is articulated and is connected to the support part 6 so that it can be displaced in the longitudinal direction thereof.
- the adjustment element is formed by a carriage 114 which is drive-connected to the electromotive drive device and can be moved in the linear guide 112 under the effect of the same.
- the functional connection between the lever mechanism 102, the electromotive drive device and the base part 4 and the support part 6 is designed in such a way that
- the end of the second lever 108 guided in the linear guide 112 is displaced in a first kinematic phase in the direction of the lever pivot axis 106, with the other end of the second lever 108 being in the region of the end facing away from the support part pivot axis 8 of the support part 6 is located, whereby the support part 6 is pivoted about the support part pivot axis 8, and -
- the end of the second lever 108 facing the lever pivot axis 106 moves further in the direction of the lever pivot axis 106, while the end of the second lever 108 facing away from the lever pivot axis 106 moves relative to the support part 6 in the direction of the support part pivot axis, whereby the support part 6 is further pivoted relative to the base part 4 about the support part pivot axis 8 until the end position of the adjustment movement is reached.

Abstract
L'invention concerne un dispositif de support (2) qui est réglable au moyen d'un moteur électrique pour supporter le rembourrage d'un meuble d'assise et/ou inclinable, en particulier un matelas d'un lit, qui comprend une partie de base (4) et une partie de support (6). Au moins une des parties (4, 6) comporte au moins un élément de guidage de levage (34) qui est situé dessus et qui agit à la manière d'un coin, et dont la forme est telle qu'elle lui permet une liaison fonctionnelle avec l'élément de réglage (32) de sorte que, en cas de mouvement relatif entre l'élément de réglage (32) et l'élément de guidage de levage (34) le long de l'axe linéaire, la partie de support (6) pivote par rapport à la partie de base (4) autour de l'axe de pivotement de la partie de support (8).
