Bedside table, especially nursing bedside table

The invention relates to a bedside table, in particular a nursing bedside table, according to the preamble of claim 1.

Such a nursing bedside table is already known. A bedside table is connected to the nursing bedside table. The bedside table consists of a telescopic guide attached to the bedside table and a table extension that is pivotably mounted at the upper end of the guide and can be pushed over the guide. The telescopic guide consists of a lower, inner telescopic tube and an upper, outer telescopic tube that can be pushed over the inner telescopic tube. The upper telescopic tube is guided longitudinally on the lower telescopic tube, and a table extension is pivotably mounted at the upper end of the upper telescopic tube. In the pushed-in position, in which the upper telescopic tube is pushed over the lower telescopic tube, the table extension is also pushed over the upper telescopic tube. For this purpose, the table extension has an inner cavity that accommodates the upper telescopic tube in the pushed-together position.

To bring the bed table into the operating position, the table extension is pulled out via the upper telescopic tube. The table extension is then swiveled into a horizontal position, where it is locked in place by a stop. To adjust the height of the table extension, the upper telescopic tube is moved together with the table extension to the desired height position.

·

In the previously known bedside table, the telescopic tubes run vertically. They cannot be swiveled. The lower end of the inner, lower telescopic tube is at a relatively large distance from one of the side walls of the bedside table. As a result, the bedside table still appears to be a nuisance even when pushed together.

A bedside table with a bedside table has also become known, which has a telescopic guide provided on the bedside table and a table extension pivoted at the upper end of the guide. In this bedside table, the guide can pivot around an axis located in the lower area of the bedside table. The pivoting position is locked by hooks arranged on the side, which are attached to a side wall of the bedside table and which engage in corresponding elongated holes in the guide. This makes it impossible to design the table extension in a way that can be pushed over the guide, so that the appearance of the bedside table in the pushed-together position leaves something to be desired and the overall height is also relatively high. This previously known bedside table is relatively complicated to construct and is also difficult to clean.

DE-AS 23 57 738 describes a bedside table with a table top that can be swiveled in and extended to the side. The table top is pivotably mounted at the upper end of a telescopic guide. However, the table extension cannot be pushed over the telescopic guide, but can only be swiveled behind it.

The object of the invention is to propose a bedside table, in particular a nursing bedside table, of the type specified at the beginning, in which the bedside table is designed in a visually appealing, unobtrusive manner.

can be collapsed as required.

According to the invention, this object is achieved according to the characterizing features of claim 1 in that the guide can be pivoted about an axis located in the lower area of the bedside table. In the pushed-together position, the bedside table can be pivoted towards a side wall of the bedside table so that it no longer appears to be a nuisance. If the bedside table has an upper table top that protrudes beyond the side walls of the bedside table, the arrangement can be made in such a way that the bedside table lies completely under the table top of the bedside table in the pushed-together state. Furthermore, the design according to the invention makes it possible to arrange the pivot axis for the telescopic guide at a relatively short distance from the side wall of the bedside table, even if the bedside table has a table top that protrudes beyond its side walls. Before the upper telescopic tube is pulled out, the telescopic guide can be pivoted outwards.

The invention creates a bedside table, in particular a nursing bedside table, which is particularly suitable for use in a hospital and in elderly care and for similar purposes. The bedside table can be pushed together to a particularly low height, so that the entire bedside table can be realized with a very low construction height.

Advantageous further developments of the invention are described in the subclaims.

Preferably, the table extension completely covers the guide when pushed in. The table extension is designed in such a way that it covers the telescopic guide when

completely absorbs the space when pushed in. When pushed in, only the table extension or its underside is visible, which results in a particularly attractive appearance. The underside of the table extension can be made from a single deep-drawn part, preferably made of plastic.

The telescopic guide preferably consists of telescopic tubes that slide into one another. These telescopic tubes preferably have a rectangular (box-shaped) cross-section. The telescopic tubes advantageously consist of rectangular hollow profiles. It is possible for there to be only one telescopic guide, consisting of an inner and an outer telescopic tube. The telescopic guide can be formed by a gas spring.

According to a further advantageous development, the swivel axis of the guide is provided on a bracket that is connected to the bedside table. The bracket can be designed as a stamped part.

A stop for the guide can be provided in the area of the swivel axis of the guide, preferably on the bracket. This limits the swiveling ability of the guide in a particularly simple and effective way. Furthermore, this allows the swivel axis for the telescopic guide to be moved particularly far down, resulting in a particularly low installation height.

A further advantageous development is characterized in that the bracket engages under or through a side wall of the bedside table. The bracket is preferably attached to the inside of the side wall. In this way, the

The forces exerted on the bracket by the guide and the table extension can be absorbed particularly easily and effectively. This also means that the swivel axis for the telescopic guide can be moved particularly far down, resulting in a particularly low installation height.

Instead of this or in addition, a flange can be provided on the bracket, which is connected to the base of the bedside table, preferably on its underside. This measure also ensures that the forces acting on the bracket are transferred to the bedside table in a particularly advantageous manner.

The bracket can be welded to the part that engages under or through a side wall of the bedside table and/or to the flange that is connected to the bottom surface of the bedside table.

It is advantageous if the guide can be locked, preferably in various extended positions, preferably continuously. The user can then move the table extension of the bedside table into the desired position or height.

In order to lock the guide in different positions or heights, a brake can be provided in the guide. This brake preferably has a braking element that can be brought into and out of engagement with a braking part. The braking part can be provided on one of the two telescopic guides, for example on the upper telescopic tube.

The braking part can have an inclined surface with which the braking element can be brought into and out of contact. The braking element preferably consists of a roller or a ball. It is also preferably spring-loaded.

·

• 1

The brake can have a release part that releases the braking element. When the brake is locked, this release part does not act on the braking element. To release the brake, the braking element can be disengaged by the release part, preferably against a spring force that loads the braking element. The release part can consist of a rod that protrudes from the top of the upper telescopic tube to form a release button or a release key.

According to a further advantageous development, the release part can be actuated by pivoting the table extension. The arrangement can be such that the table extension, when it is in the position aligned with the telescopic guide, actuates the release part to release the braking element.

According to a further advantageous development, the swivel axis for the table extension is provided on a mounting bracket connected to the upper end of the guide. This mounting bracket preferably forms a stop for the table extension.

The table extension can be guided by a table extension guide that is pivotably mounted on the telescopic guide or on the mounting bracket that is located at the upper end of the telescopic guide.

A further advantageous development is characterized in that the table extension is rotatably mounted on the guide or on the support bracket or on the table extension guide. The table extension can preferably be rotated about its longitudinal center axis. The table extension can also preferably be locked in different rotational positions. This can be achieved by a locking bolt that is inserted into one of several recesses.

can grip. Preferably, a rotary slide is provided which is rotatably connected to the table extension guide. The rotary slide can form part of the table extension guide.

A handle, preferably pointing downwards, can be provided at the outer end of the table extension.

According to a further advantageous development, a compression spring is provided in the telescopic guide, one end of which is supported on one part of the guide, for example the lower, inner telescopic tube, and the other end of which is supported on the other part of the guide, for example the upper, outer telescopic tube. The compression spring is preferably guided, for example by a mandrel, which can be connected to a cross member or base of the lower telescopic tube, and a sleeve, which can be connected to the upper, outer telescopic tube.

A further advantageous development is characterized in that at least one spring is provided in the table extension, one end of which is connected to the table extension or to the profile part and the other end of which is connected to the guide or the support bracket or the table extension guide or the rotary slide. The spring is preferably a roller spring. It is advantageous if two springs or roller springs are present. This prevents the table extension from tilting easily and reliably.

The invention further relates to a bedside table for a nightstand, in particular a nursing bedside table. The bedside table according to the invention consists of a telescopic guide and a table extension that is pivotably mounted at the upper end of the guide and can be pushed over the guide. The guide can be pivoted about an axis that is located on the side opposite the table extension.

end of the telescopic guide. Regarding the advantageous further developments of the bed table, please refer to the above explanations.

Figures 1 to 8 show a first embodiment of the bedside table.

The bedside table, in particular a nursing bedside table, which is provided with the reference number 31 as a whole, has a bedside table which consists of a telescopic guide 1, 2 provided on the bedside table 31 and a table extension 5 mounted on the upper end of the telescopic guide 1, 2 around a horizontal pivot axis 7. The table extension 5 can be pushed over the telescopic guide 1, 2 in the manner shown in Figs. 1 and 3. For this purpose, the table extension 5 has a cavity in its interior which is at least large enough to accommodate the outer telescopic tube

2 can be completely accommodated. The cavity of the table extension 5 is open at least towards the telescopic guide 1, 2. The table extension 5 can thus accommodate the entire telescopic guide 1, 2 when pushed together. The table extension 5 is designed in such a way that it completely covers the guide 1, 2 in the pushed-in state as shown in Fig. 1 and 3.

In the pushed-together position, the table extension 5, together with the telescopic guide 1, 2 located therein, is located against a side wall 32 of the bedside table 31. It is also located under the table top 9 of the bedside table 31, which protrudes over the side walls of the bedside table 31.

In the extended position shown in Fig. 2 and 4, the telescopic guide 1, 2 is pivoted about the pivot axis 3 located at its lower end. It is also extended upwards. The table extension 5 is pivoted into a horizontal position about the horizontal pivot axis 7 located at the upper end of the telescopic guide 1, 2.

The telescopic guide consists of two telescopic tubes 1, 2, which have a rectangular cross-section. They are rectangular hollow profiles. The upper telescopic tube 2 has a larger cross-section. It can be moved along the lower telescopic tube 1.

The lower telescopic tube 1 is pivotally mounted about an axis 3, which is located at the lower end of the lower telescopic tube 1. Furthermore, this pivot axis 3 is arranged in the lower area of the bedside table. It is only a short distance from the side wall 32 of the bedside table 31. As a result, the bedside table can be completely folded in the manner shown in Figs. 1 and 3 into the space between the pivot axis 3 and the side wall

- 11 -

The niche formed by the protruding part of the table top 9 can be swiveled in or folded in. This also allows a low overall height for the bedside table and thus for the entire bedside table to be achieved.

The pivot axis 3 is provided on a bracket 4, which is connected to the bedside table 31. A stop 23 for the lower telescopic tube 1 is provided on the bracket 4. This stop 23 is formed by a surface that is inclined relative to the vertical, whereby the inclination of this surface in the exemplary embodiment is approximately 5°; however, other angles of inclination are also possible. In the inclined position shown in Figs. 2 and 4, an inner surface of the lower telescopic tube 1 rests against the inclined surface forming the stop 23. The inclined surface 23 is located above the pivot axis 3.

As can be seen from Fig. 1 to 4 and 7, the bracket 4 engages under the side wall 32 of the bedside table 31. An embodiment is also possible in which the side wall of the bedside table is not engaged under but rather through. On the side of the bracket opposite the stop 23, the bracket extends upwards. There it rests against the inside of the side wall 32 and is fastened there by screws 36 indicated in Fig. 7. As can be seen in Fig. 7, the bracket 4 also consists of a rectangular hollow profile.

Furthermore, a flange 33 is provided on the inner part of the support bracket 4, which is connected to the underside of the base surface 34 of the bedside table 31. For this purpose, the flange has openings 37 through which fastening screws penetrate, which are screwed into the base surface 34 of the bedside table 31.

- 12 -

By fastening the bracket 4 to the side wall 32, the relatively high forces exerted by the lower telescopic tube 1 on the stop 23 can be absorbed easily and reliably. The base surface 34 has an opening 38 through which the inner part of the bracket 4 passes.

The telescopic guide 1, 2 can be continuously locked in various extended positions. For this purpose, a continuously adjustable and lockable brake is provided in the telescopic guide 1, 2, which consists of a rod 11 connected to the lower telescopic tube 1, a tube 12 connected to the upper telescopic tube 2, a braking part 13 fastened in the tube 12 and a braking element formed by a roller 14. As can be seen from Figs. 5 and 6, a base or cross member 35 is connected to the lower telescopic tube 1, which is located inside the lower telescopic tube 1 and from which a rod 11 running parallel to the lower telescopic tube 1 points upwards. The rod 11 is connected to the cross member 35. A tube 12 is connected to the upper telescopic tube 2, which runs inside the upper telescopic tube 2 parallel to the telescopic tubes 1, 2 and through which the rod 11 passes. The rod 11 therefore runs inside the tube 12.

In the lower part of the tube 12 there is a brake part 13 connected to it, which is also penetrated by the rod 11. In the area of the lower end of the brake part 13 there is a downwardly widening, funnel-shaped inclined surface 16 which accommodates the brake part 13 designed as a roller. Above the inclined surface 16 there is a hole in the brake part 13 in which the lower part of a rod-shaped release part 17, designed as a pin 40, is located. The mentioned hole in the brake part 13 forms for this

Pin 40 has a guide in which the pin 40 is mounted so that it can move longitudinally. The lower end of the pin 40 is located in the position shown in Fig. 6 just above the roller 14.

Below the braking part 13, a compression spring 15 is provided in the tube 12, the lower end of which is supported on the bottom surface 41 of the tube 12 and the upper end of which is supported on a pressure plate 39 which can be moved in the tube 12. The pressure plate rests on the roller 14 and presses it upwards. As a result, the roller 14 comes into contact with both the inclined surface 16 and the rod 11. As a result, the braking part 13 and with it the tube 12 and the upper telescopic tube 2 on the one hand and the rod 11 and with it the lower telescopic tube 1 on the other hand are braced against each other and clamped against each other. If a downward force is exerted on the upper telescopic tube 2, the roller 14 forming the braking element runs upwards on the inclined surface 16 in the braking part 13, supported by the upward force of the spring 15. The inclined surface 16 moves the roller 14 towards the rod 11 until it rests against it and causes the aforementioned tension and jamming. The clamping effect is created by the roller 14 between the inclined surface 16 of the braking part 13 and the rod 11.

To release the brake, the release part formed by the rod 17 is moved downwards so that the lower end of the pin 40 presses the roller 14 downwards against the force of the spring 15. The roller 14 then no longer provides a clamping effect between the inclined surface 16 and the rod 11 and the brake is released. This allows any height adjustment of the upper telescopic tube 2 and thus of the table extension 5.

In order to be able to press down the release part 17 to release the brake, its upper end is designed as a release button 18 (Fig. 4).

·

·

The release part 17 protrudes from the upper telescopic tube 2 with this release button 18. By pressing down the release button (the release key) 18, the roller 14 is moved downwards and the brake is thus released.

In the telescopic tubes 1, 2, a compression spring 20 shown in Fig. 5 is also provided, the lower end of which is supported on the lower telescopic tube 1, namely its cross member 35, and the upper end of which is supported (in a manner not shown in the figures) on the upper telescopic tube 2 in the area of its upper end. This compression spring 20 serves to balance the weight of the table extension 5 and the upper telescopic tube 2. It is guided by a mandrel 21 provided on the cross member 35, pointing upwards from it and running parallel to the telescopic tubes 1, 2, and by a sleeve 22 connected to the upper telescopic tube 2. The sleeve 22 engages over the spring 20 and the mandrel 21.

On the outside of the upper end of the lower telescopic tube 1 there is a plastic sliding guide 42 shown in Fig. 5. In a corresponding manner, an inward-facing plastic sliding guide 43 is provided at the lower end of the upper telescopic tube 2. The outer circumference of the plastic sliding guide 42 rests on the inner surface of the upper telescopic tube 2. In a corresponding manner, the inner surface of the plastic sliding guide 43 rests on the outer surface of the lower telescopic tube 1.

At the upper end of the upper telescopic tube, a support bracket 6 is provided in the manner shown in Fig. 4, on which the pivot axis 7 for the table extension 5 is arranged. Table extension guides 19 are pivotally mounted around this pivot axis 7. The table extension 5 is guided longitudinally along these table extension guides 19. At its outer, lower end

the table extension 5 has a downward-pointing handle 8. In the unfolded, horizontal position shown in Fig. 4, the inner end of the table extension 5 shown on the left in the drawing rests on the right side of the support bracket 6, which in this way forms a stop 10.

The release part 17 of the brake is activated by pivoting the table extension 5 from the horizontal position shown in Fig. 4 upwards into the position aligned with the telescopic guides 1, 2 around the axis 7. For this purpose, a curved surface is formed on the hinge 19, which is arranged on the support bracket 6 so as to be pivotable about the axis 7, by means of which the actuating button 18 is pressed down when the table extension 5 and thus also the hinge 19 are pivoted anti-clockwise. When the table extension 5 is folded up anti-clockwise from the position shown in Fig. 4, the curved surface of the hinge 19 runs onto the release button 18 which is hemispherical at the upper end, so that the release part 17 is pressed down and the brake is automatically released.

The table extension 5 shown in cross section in Fig. 8 consists of a table surface 42 and a bottom 43, which is designed as a deep-drawn plastic part. In the extended position shown in Figs. 2 and 4, the table surface 42 is at the top. In the pushed-together position shown in Figs. 1 and 3, the table surface 42 rests against the side wall 32 of the bedside table; in this position only the bottom 43 is visible.

The outer edges 44 of the underside 43 protrude beyond the table surface 42; in this way they form a border for this table surface 42. The vertically running outer edge

·

·

· ■ ··

Regions 45 of the underside 43 are adjoined by regions 46 which are inclined obliquely downwards, at the inner ends of which vertically downward-running edges 47 are provided, the lower ends of which are connected to one another by a flat, horizontal, lower end surface 48.

In the rectangular space formed by the sections 47, 48 of the underside 43 and part of the table surface 42, a profile part 24 is inserted, which is connected to the table extension 5. The profile part 24 has vertical sections with inwardly angled parts 50, which are inserted into the corners of the underside 43 formed by the sections 47 and 48. The upper ends of the sections 49 are formed by a horizontal part 51 of the profile part 24. The horizontal part 51 runs on the underside of the table surface 42 parallel to it; it projects beyond the vertical parts 49 through the extensions 52.

The guides 19 of the hinge, which can be pivoted about the axis 7, are guided in the rectangular part of the profile part 24, which is formed by the parts 49, 50, 51. In each of the rectangular, U-shaped receptacles 49, 50, 51 there is a guide 19, which is mounted there so that it can be moved longitudinally. In this way, the table extension 5 can be moved along the guides 19.

The bedside table functions as follows: First, the bedside table is in the folded-in position shown in Fig. 1 and 3, in which the table extension 5 rests against the outside of the side wall 32 of the bedside table 31. To extend the bedside table, the table extension 5 is grasped by the handle 8 and swung outwards until the lower telescopic tube 1 rests against the stop 23. The table extension 5 is then

the handle 8 is pulled upwards until the desired height is reached. During the pulling up, the curved surface of the hinge 19 presses on the release button 18 so that the brake is still released and the table can be pulled upwards together with the upper telescopic tube 2.

As soon as the desired height position is reached, the table extension 5 is pivoted clockwise until the position shown in Fig. 2 and 4 is reached. By pivoting the table extension 5, the brake is simultaneously automatically locked by the action of the compression spring 15 acting on the roller 14.

In the position shown in Fig. 2 and 4, the height of the table extension 5 can be adjusted. To do this, press the release button 18 to release the brake. The upper telescopic tube 2 can then be adjusted relative to the lower telescopic tube 1 until the desired height of the table extension 5 is reached. The release button 18 is then released so that the brake is locked again.

To fold up the bedside table, the table extension 5 is first swiveled anti-clockwise until it is aligned with the telescopic tubes 1, 2. The brake is released by the pressure exerted by the curved shape of the hinge 19 on the release button 18. The upper telescopic tube 2 is then pushed completely over the lower telescopic tube 1. The table extension 5 can then be pushed completely over the upper telescopic tube 2. Finally, the table extension 5 is swiveled around the axis 3 towards the side wall 32 of the bedside table 31 so that the position shown in Figs. 1 and 3 is reached.

Figures 9 to 15 show a second embodiment of the bedside table or nursing bedside table, in which those parts that are also present in the first embodiment are provided with the same reference numerals so that they do not need to be described again. In the second embodiment, the telescopic guide consists of a gas spring 61, the telescopic rod 62 of which is connected to the outer telescopic tube 63.

The stop 23 is located, as shown in Figure 11, on two stamped parts 64 which are welded to two opposite sides of the bracket 4. The stamped parts 64 are essentially U-shaped. One of the legs is welded to a narrow side of the bracket 4, which has a rectangular cross-section. The other leg 65 is bevelled on its inside and thus forms the stop 23. In the lower area of the leg 65, a hole 66 is provided which receives the axis 3. Above the opposite leg of the stamped part 64, fastening brackets 67 are provided on the narrow sides of the bracket 4, each of which has an opening 37 on its right-angled legs, through which a fastening screw passes, which is screwed into the base surface 34 of the bedside table 31. The side of the bracket 4 facing the side wall 32 has fastening holes 68 for fastening screws not shown in the drawing.

The base parts of the stamped parts 64 are connected to one another at their upper side by a flat, right-angled connecting piece 69.

A rotating part 70 is attached to the mounting bracket 6 in the manner shown in particular in Figures 12 and 13 to rotate about the pivot axis.

•♦ · ···· &bgr;

axis 7 is rotatably mounted. The support bracket 6 is connected to the rod 62 of the gas spring 61 or the outer telescopic tube 63. It has an upper end surface 71, on the top of which a bearing part 72 is provided, which receives the pivot axis 7. The pivot axis 7 projects beyond the bearing part 72 on both sides. It engages in two holes, each of which is provided in an extension 73 of the rotating part 70.

On the base part 74 of the rotary part 70, which connects the parallel, spaced-apart extensions 73, a rotary axis 75 is provided which points away perpendicularly from it, the longitudinal axis 76 of which runs at a right angle to the swivel axis 7, so that the swivel axis 7 and the rotary axis 75 form a universal joint. The longitudinal axis 76 of the rotary axis 75 coincides with the longitudinal center axis of the table extension 5.

In the rotary part 70, a spring-loaded, depressible locking pin 77 is also provided near the rotation axis 75. A rotary slide 78, not shown in Figures 12 and 13 but shown in Figures 9, 10, 14 and 15, is mounted so that it can rotate about the rotation axis 75. For this purpose, the rotary slide 78 has a receptacle 79 for the rotation axis 75. Furthermore, several, namely five, recesses 80 are arranged in the rotary slide 78, which correspond to the locking pin 77. The locking pin 77 locks into one of the recesses 80. By operating the lever 81 on a side surface 82 of the rotary part 70, the locking pin 77 is retracted against the force of the spring, not shown in the drawings, so that the rotary slide 78 can then be rotated about the rotation axis 75. As soon as the desired rotational position of the rotary slide 78 is reached, the lever 81 is released. The locking bolt 77 is then moved outwards again into the position shown in Figures 12 and 13 by the force of the spring assigned to it, which is not shown in the drawings.

It locks again into one of the recesses 80 of the rotary valve 78, whereby this rotary valve 78 is then locked in the new rotary position.

The rotary valve 78 is fixed in the axial direction on the axis of rotation 75.

The profile part 24, which is essentially rectangular in cross-section, is connected to the table surface 42. The upper long side 83 of the profile part 24 is connected to the table surface 42. Guide strips 85 are screwed onto the insides of the two opposite narrow sides 84 of the profile part 24, along which the rotary slide 78 is guided so as to be longitudinally displaceable. In this way, the table extension 5 can be pushed from the position shown in Figure 10 into the position shown in Figure 9, if the rotary part 70 is in the position shown in Figure 12, in which the axis of rotation 75 is aligned with the telescopic guide, and if the locking bolt 77 of the rotary part 70 is locked into the central recess 80 of the rotary slide 78, i.e. if the rotary slide 78 is aligned with the rotary part 70.

On the lower longitudinal side 86 of the profile part 24, undercut guides 87 are provided on opposite sides, which serve to accommodate cladding elements that are visible from the outside when the table extension is retracted (Fig. 9).

In the rotary valve 78, two winding axes 88 are rotatably mounted in the manner shown in Figure 15, on each of which a roller spring 89 is wound or can be wound. The winding axes 88 are preloaded by springs not shown in the drawing in such a way that they tend to wind up the roller springs 89. The other ends of the roller springs 89 are fastened to the profile part 24 by screws or nuts 90, in the case of

area of the outer end of the profile part 24 adjacent to the handle 8. When the table surface 5 is pulled out into the position shown in Figure 10, the roller springs 89 are tensioned. They support the inward movement of the table surface 5 into the position of Figure 9.
