Abstract

The present application relates to a frame element for an adjustable bed, wherein the frame element is configured as a longitudinal element for a longitudinal side of the bed and comprises the following: a frame carrier, an adjustment mechanism for adjusting the bed with at least one actuator for actuating the adjustment mechanism, and a profile. The adjustment mechanism and the profile form a module, wherein the displaceable module is displaceable guided on the frame carrier by means of at least two guiding devices, and wherein each guiding device comprises at least one support roller and at least one guiding element, wherein an axis of rotation of the at least one support roller is arranged perpendicularly or substantially perpendicularly to a fastening axis of the at least one guiding element.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A frame element for an adjustable bed, the frame element being arranged as a longitudinal element for a longitudinal side of the adjustable bed and comprising the following:
 a frame carrier;   an adjustment mechanism for adjusting the bed with at least one actuator for actuating the adjustment mechanism; and   a profile;   wherein the adjustment mechanism and the profile form a module,   wherein the module is displaceable guided on the frame carrier by means of at least two guiding devices, and   wherein each guiding device comprises at least one support roller and at least one guiding element, wherein an axis of rotation of the at least one support roller is arranged perpendicularly or substantially perpendicularly to a fastening axis of the at least one guiding element.   
     
     
         2 . The frame element according to  claim 1 , wherein the at least one guiding element is a sliding block. 
     
     
         3 . The frame element according to  claim 1 , wherein the at least one guiding element is a guide roller, and a fastening axis of the guide roller corresponds to an axis of rotation of the guide roller. 
     
     
         4 . The frame element according to  claim 1 , wherein the at least one guiding element is arranged inside the profile. 
     
     
         5 . The frame element according to  claim 1 , wherein the profile is a hollow tube and has at least one slotted hole. 
     
     
         6 . The frame element according to  claim 5 , wherein the frame carrier comprises at least two rod-shaped machine parts for mounting a respective guiding element, wherein the at least two rod-shaped machine parts are guided through the at least one slotted hole into the inside of the profile. 
     
     
         7 . The frame element according to  claim 1 , wherein each guiding element comprises a first sliding surface and at least one flank, wherein the profile is guided by the first sliding surface of each guiding element in a first direction and is guided by the at least one flank of each guiding element in a second direction, wherein the first direction and the second direction are perpendicular to each other. 
     
     
         8 . The frame element according to  claim 7 , wherein the flank comprises a second sliding surface facing an inner surface of the profile. 
     
     
         9 . The frame element according to  claim 1 , wherein the frame element further comprises at least one fastening device for a transverse element of the bed. 
     
     
         10 . The frame element according to  claim 9 , wherein the fastening device comprises a magnetic holder for a screen. 
     
     
         11 . The frame element according to  claim 1 , wherein the adjustment mechanism comprises a lever arm which connects a segment of the adjustment mechanism and the frame carrier and is pivotable. 
     
     
         12 . The frame element according to  claim 9 , wherein the adjustment mechanism comprises a lever arm which connects a segment of the adjustment mechanism and one of the at least one fastening devices and is pivotable. 
     
     
         13 . The frame element according to  claim 5 , wherein the at least one slotted hole comprises a recess through which each guiding element is inserted into the inside of the profile. 
     
     
         14 . The frame element according to  claim 1 , wherein the lever arm holds the profile of the displaceable module and the frame carrier together and is configured for a displacement. 
     
     
         15 . The frame element according to  claim 1 , wherein the at least one support roller and the at least one guiding element of each guiding device are arranged substantially on a line along a longitudinal axis of the frame element. 
     
     
         16 . The frame element according to  claim 1 , wherein the axis of rotation of the at least one support roller and the fastening axis of the at least one guiding element are arranged at an angle of 87.5° or at an angle of 92.5° to one another. 
     
     
         17 . A modular frame for an adjustable bed, which is formed by two frame elements according to  claim 1 , which are configured as longitudinal elements, and by at least one transverse element for a transverse side of the bed. 
     
     
         18 . The modular frame according to  claim 17 , wherein the longitudinal elements are mountable on the transverse element in such a way that a distance between the longitudinal elements is adjustable. 
     
     
         19 . The modular frame according to  claim 17 , wherein opposite segments of the adjustment mechanisms of the respective longitudinal elements are connected via one or more support elements for supporting a mattress. 
     
     
         20 . An adjustable bed, comprising two frame elements according to  claim 1 , which are configured as longitudinal elements, wherein opposite segments of the adjustment mechanisms of the longitudinal elements are connected via one or more support elements for supporting a mattress.
