Mattress base having transverse supports and elastic connecting pieces

摘要

The invention relates to a mattress base having transverse supports 9 for insertion in a bed frame and as a support for a mattress, in which each transverse support is fastened to the support frame of the mattress base by means of an elastic connecting piece which is variable in its spring strength, each connecting piece having a prestressable compression spring 10. The compression spring is arranged with one end in a receiving bore 6 in which a spring disc 23 is fastened. Below the transverse support 9, the compression spring 10 is fastened to a spring disc 50. Furthermore, a measuring element 15 is arranged in a recess 13, which measuring element has a carrier 66 which guides a measuring slide 5 upwards and downwards to determine the measurement values, said measuring slide being fixed at the measured height by a pressure element 42, and the upper surface 52 of the spring disc 50 corresponding via a pivoting element 75 to the upper surface 62 of the measuring element 15. <IMAGE>
