device for adjusting the inclination of the sections of the plan for a bed, particularly for beds of nursing homes and the like

摘要

A bed arrangement, specially beds (10, 11) for hospitals, institutions and the like. The bed comprises a bed base (11) which is divided into two sections (12, 13), namely a back support section (12) which is pivotable about a horizontal, transverse axis (14) about at the centre of the bed base together with a leg support section (13) which cooperates with and in a normal use position is in alignment with the back support section (12) in a substantially horizontal position. The leg support section (13) at the end (13a) which faces towards the back support section (12) is vertically adjustable relative to the pivotal axis of the back support section for rearrangement of the said end (13a) of the leg support section (13) from an aligned to a prolapsed position relative to the back support section (12). The bed is further provided with a link arm mechanism (21-23) for controlled raising and lowering of the leg support section (13) relative to the back support section.
