Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the general field of bedding or seat accessories. It relates more particularly to a device for adjusting the vertical level of a slat type support element or tray for such sommiers or seats.
  • bedding bedding structures in particular, it is interesting to be able to adjust at will the height level of the slats or trays that support the mattress, this in particular to improve the comfort of lift, depending on the weight of the user and curves of his body.
  • Such a structure is very simple and inexpensive, easy and convenient operation.
  • This type of adjustable device can equip any bed frame structure or seat equipped with slats or support plates, capable of receiving a user in a supine or sitting position.
  • the adjusting device comprises means for guiding the rod in vertical translation during the setting in rotation of the wheel-nut.
  • These guide means in translation advantageously consist of a groove formed in said sliding rod, cooperating with a projecting lug formed in the base.
  • the sliding rod comprises a stop member cooperating with the base to limit the upward movement of the support member.
  • the base comprises a housing for receiving the knob-nut which is provided with an upper opening, and a lower opening for the passage of the sliding rod, and - at least a peripheral window making accessible to an operator a portion of the periphery of said wheel, to allow its rotation.
  • the sliding rod advantageously has a generally cylindrical shape and comprises an upper portion provided with the thread cooperating with that of the knob-nut, and a lower portion without threading.
  • the lower end of the sliding rod comprises an elastic tongue constituting the above abutment member, which cooperates with the upper edge of an opening in the lower housing of the base, to block the vertical translation upwards of said sliding rod.
  • the sliding rod is made in one piece with a holding member of the support member (for example a suspension tip for batten (s)); according to an alternative embodiment, the upper end of this sliding rod is provided with means that allow the removable reception of the holding member.
  • a holding member of the support member for example a suspension tip for batten (s)
  • the upper end of this sliding rod is provided with means that allow the removable reception of the holding member.
  • the adjusting device 1 is constituted by the assembly of three distinct parts, namely: a base 2, a nut-wheel 3 and an adjusting rod 4.
  • the rod 4 is held and guided in vertical translation in the base 2 and its maneuver in translation, upwards or downwards, is achieved by the nut-wheel 3 with which it cooperates with the intermediate suitable threads, so as to adjust the vertical level of its upper end which carries a support member 5 such as a batten or a tray, either directly or via a holding member 6 such that a batten tip (shown in dashed line on the figure 3 ).
  • a support member 5 such as a batten or a tray
  • a holding member 6 such that a batten tip (shown in dashed line on the figure 3 ).
  • the base 2 consists of a plastic part provided here with two orifices 7 which allow its attachment to a support frame 8, for example on the vertical inner face of a bed frame spar.
  • This base 2 comprises an upper housing 9 for receiving the nut-wheel 3, and a lower housing 10 in particular for receiving the lower part of the sliding rod 4.
  • the upper housing 9 has an upper opening 11 and an opening lower 12; it also has peripheral windows, in particular a front window 13 framed by two side windows 13 '.
  • the lower housing 10 On its side, the lower housing 10 has an upper portion 15 of generally cylindrical shape, and a lower portion 16, also of generally cylindrical shape, which are coaxial with each other, centered on a vertical axis 17.
  • the lower part 16 of the housing 10 has a front opening 18 delimited in particular by an upper edge 19.
  • this lower housing portion 16 has a vertical projecting lug 20 which extends in the median vertical plane of the housing 10 (parallel to the axis 17) and which is made in one piece with a rear plate 21.
  • This rear plate 21 is shaped to come to press against the vertical face of the bed frame spar 8 and has, on its sides, the two orifices 7 mentioned above.
  • the wheel-nut 3 consists of a plastic part in the general shape of a circular ring, the periphery of which is provided with striations 22 intended to facilitate its maneuver in rotation. Its central orifice 23 has a thread 24.
  • the adjusting rod 4 consists of a plastic part of generally cylindrical shape. It comprises an upper portion 25 equipped with a thread 26 complementary to the thread 24 of the wheel-nut 3, and a lower portion 27 without threading. Its upper end is equipped with means 28 (here in the form of a simple plate), which allow the removable reception of a holding member 6 of the support element 5, for example, as illustrated in FIG. figure 3 , a tip 6 for receiving and suspending a slat 5.
  • the lower portion 27 of the adjusting rod 4 has a rear longitudinal groove 29 (visible on the figure 6 ) intended to cooperate with the lug 20 of the base 2 to ensure the translational guidance of said rod 4 during the operation of the knob-nut 3.
  • the lower portion of rod 27 comprises, on the front, an elastic tongue 30 intended to cooperate with the upper edge 19 above the front opening 18 made in the lower housing 10 of the base, to form a stop element (high stop) limiting the vertical extension of the rod 4.
  • the adjusting device 1 is mounted by positioning the knob-nut 3 in its receiving housing 9, with its central orifice 23 placed opposite the upper and lower openings 11, 12, the axis of said orifice 23 being centered on the axis 17 of the lower housing 10 of the base 2. Part of the periphery of the wheel-nut 3 is then made operable by the front windows 13 or 13 'side. Then, the adjustment rod 4 is inserted through its lower end into the base 2, passing through the orifice 23 of the nut-wheel 3, until its upper thread 26 cooperates with the threading 24 of said nut wheel 3. Then, the nut-wheel 3 is rotated to initiate cooperation between the threads 24 and 26 and to ensure proper positioning of the lower portion of the rod 4 within its receiving housing 16. During this operation, the tongue 30 resiliently passes the level of the upper edge 19 of the opening 18 to be slightly protruding outwardly; on the other hand, the rear groove 29 of the rod 4 engages the protruding pin 20 of the base 2.
  • the head 28 of the adjusting rod 4 protrudes above the base 2.
  • the threaded upper portion 26 of this rod 4 passes through: - the upper orifice 11 of the housing 9, - the central orifice 23 of the nut-wheel 3 (with the thread 24 which it cooperates with), as well as - the lower orifice 12 of the housing 9; and it extends partially in the upper part 15 of the lower housing 10 of the base 2.
  • This housing portion 15 is structured according to the dimensional characteristics of the threaded portion of rod 26, so as not to disturb the displacement in translation of the rod 4.
  • the lower portion 27 of the rod 4 extends, according to its position, at least partially in the lower portion 16 of the base housing 10.
  • This lower housing portion 16 advantageously has a generally cylindrical corresponding shape, with the clearance, to the external dimensions of the lower part of rod 27.
  • This adjustment device 1 is positioned on its support frame 8 so that the axis of the adjustment rod 4 extends vertically or substantially vertically, this axis coinciding with the axis of rotation of the wheel-nut 3 and with the axis 17 of the base housing 10.
  • the slats or trays 5 can be fixed directly on the head of the sliding rod 4, or by means of holding members 6 removably attached.
  • the adjustment stroke can be of the order of a few centimeters (1 to 5 cm for example).
  • This adjustment stroke is limited, downwards, by the abutment of the lower end of the rod 4 against the bottom of the base 2, or by the stop of the upper plate 28 against the upper part of the housing 9. Upwards, this stroke is limited by the elastic tongue 30 cooperating with the upper edge 19 of the front opening 18. It will be noted that the disassembly of the device is possible because of the elasticity characteristics of this tongue 30.
  • the adjusting device 1 in which the upper end of the sliding rod 4 removably receives endpieces 6 of the double-slat type, for receiving two transverse slats 5.
  • the base 2 of each device is carried by lateral arms 31 integral with rocker members 32 mounted on the bed frame 8.
  • the height of the two-slat assemblies 5, 6 can thus be adjusted as desired (within the permissible adjustment range), this in a very simple and very fine manner, by simple rotation of the nut-wheel 3.
  • the internal structure of the base 2 does not appear on the figure 7 , but it is similar to that of the previous embodiment, incorporating guide means in translation of the sliding rod 4, with or without high stop structure.
