<p>A bed (10) comprises a bed frame (50) consisting of four sections (52, 54, 56, and 58) which are interconnected through pivot joints (53, 55, and 57). The bed frame (50) of the bed (10) is adjustable to a 2-part, 4-part or the so-called Trendelenburg position by means of two power-generating motors (44, 46) an engageable and disengageable power-transmitting device and a carrier device as the transition between the 2- and 4-part position is established by disengaging and engaging the engageable and disengageable power-transmitting device. One of the power-generating motors (44) co-operates with a section of the frame adapted to support the back and/or head of a person lying or sitting on the bed, whereas the other power-generating motor (46) is adapted to raise and lower a section of the bed, which section supports the crus or feet of the person for adjusting the bed in the Trendelenburg position by means of the carrier device which links the crus and feet supporting section and the adjacent section of the bed together which adjacent section is adapted to support the thighs of the person. <IMAGE></p> |
