A lifting column, preferably for height-adjustable articles of furniture, such as beds and tables, comprises a drive unit (13), wherein extension of the column takes place with at least one flexible element (9), such as a chain, belt or the like running over a pulley wheel. The column comprises two rigidly interconnected pulley wheels (16) and two additional pulley wheels (7) which are arranged such that the four wheels form two pairs and which are rigidly connected with a flexible link in the column. The flexible element runs over each of the two pairs of pulley wheels. One run of the flexible elements between two pulley wheels is fixed to a link in the column, while the other run is fixed to a subsequent link. When the column is subjected to moment loading, the forces will compensate each other fully or partly because of the rigid interconnection between the two sets of pulley wheels (16). The column is hereby very rigid. |
