Cot

Abstract

The invention relates to a cot comprising four height-adjustable side parts ( 3 ). In order to enable the side parts to be vertically adjusted without applying a force, a plurality of controllable motors ( 4 ) is provided on the bed ( 1 ) for lowering and raising each side part ( 3 ), such that the height can be continuously adjusted. An electric motor or a hydraulic motor is used as the motor ( 4 ), and a vertical hollow post ( 5 ) is provided on at least one of the corners of the bed ( 1 ), the motor ( 4 ) being arranged in the cavity ( 10 ) of said post with a spindle-nut drive. The hollow post ( 5 ) is embodied as an extruded profiled element ( 38 ) with different functional moulded elements.

1 . Bed, in particular crib, with at least one side part ( 3 ), preferably four side parts ( 3 ), height-adjustable on a bed frame ( 2 ), on the longitudinal and transverse sides of the bed ( 1 ), characterized in that for lowering and raising the at least one side part ( 3 ), one or several controllable motors ( 4 ) are provided on the bed ( 1 ) and/or that the height of the upper edge of the at least one side part ( 3 ) is continuously adjustable within a given range. 
   
   
       2 . Bed as claimed in  claim 1 , characterized in that as the motor ( 4 ) an electric motor or a hydraulic motor is provided and in at least one of the corners of the bed ( 1 ), preferably in all four corners, a vertically extending hollow post ( 5 ) is provided, in the hollow space ( 10 ) of which one motor ( 4 ) is disposed. 
   
   
       3 . Bed as claimed in  claim 1 , characterized in that the motor ( 4 ) is disposed in the lower region of the hollow post ( 5 ) and preferably includes a spindle-nut drive ( 6 ) whose rotational axis extends parallel to the longitudinal axis of the hollow post ( 5 ) and that the spindle-nut drive ( 6 ) includes a carriage ( 7 ) which, depending on the direction of rotation, moves upwardly or downwardly during the rotation of the motor ( 4 ). 
   
   
       4 . Bed as claimed in  claim 1 , characterized in that in the hollow post ( 5 ) a guide ( 15 ) for the carriage ( 7 ) moving up- or downwardly is provided. 
   
   
       5 . Bed as claimed in  claim 1 , characterized in that the hollow post ( 5 ) on its side facing the side part ( 3 ) includes a vertically extending elongated hole ( 8 ). 
   
   
       6 . Bed as claimed in  claim 1 , characterized in that the side part ( 3 ) is preferably detachably connected with the carriage ( 7 ). 
   
   
       7 . Bed as claimed in  claim 1 , characterized in that the hollow post ( 5 ) is formed as an extruded profile ( 38 ), wherein the profile ( 38 ) preferably includes rear hafts ( 34 ) for sliding in decorative trimming ( 35 ). 
   
   
       8 . Bed as claimed in  claim 1 , characterized in that the profile ( 38 ) includes a profiled groove ( 36 ) with rear haft for securing one skirt end ( 16 ,  17 ). 
   
   
       9 . Bed as claimed in  claim 1 , characterized in that the profile ( 38 ) includes a guide groove ( 32 ), preferably with rear haft, for the guidance of the side part ( 3 ). 
   
   
       10 . Bed as claimed in  claim 1 , characterized in that the profile ( 38 ) includes an inwardly open fastening groove ( 39 ). 
   
   
       11 . Bed as claimed in  claim 1 , characterized in that the spindle ( 22 ) is disposed such that it penetrates the carriage ( 7 ). 
   
   
       12 . Bed as claimed in  claim 1 , characterized in that between spindle ( 22 ) and motor ( 4 ) a spring coupling ( 26 ) is provided. 
   
   
       13 . Bed as claimed in  claim 1 , characterized in that the carriage ( 7 ) in the proximity of its lower end includes a nut ( 21 ) engaging into threading of the spindle ( 22 ). 
   
   
       14 . Bed as claimed in  claim 1 , characterized in that the carriage ( 7 ) is formed shorter than or of equal length as the spindle ( 22 ), wherein the spindle ( 22 ) is formed longer than or equal to a maximum adjustment travel of the side part ( 3 ). 
   
   
       15 . Bed as claimed in  claim 1 , characterized in that the carriage ( 7 ) in the proximity of its upper end includes a bracket ( 27 ) into which preferably a bore ( 24 ) is formed in for receiving a bolt ( 28 ).
