POSITIONING MECHANISM OF A BED
First Claim
1. A positioning mechanism of a bed comprising at least three height adjustable lifters arranged in a distance from each other that are mounted on an undercarriage frame at one side and connected to a patient surface frame at an opposite side, wherein a first lifter is arranged in such a way that its axis intersects the longitudinal axis of the patient surface frame and the first lifter is connected to the patient surface frame in a swinging way around the longitudinal axis of the patient surface frame and in a sliding way in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the patient surface frame while a second lifter and a third lifter are interconnected with an arm, oriented transversally to the longitudinal axis of the patient surface frame and the arm is connected to the patient surface frame in a swinging way while the arm is connected at one end to the second lifter both in a swinging way around an axis, which is parallel with the longitudinal axis of the patient surface frame and in a sliding way transversally to the patient surface frame and at the other end the arm is connected to the third lifter, in a swinging way around an axis, which is parallel with the longitudinal axis of the patient surface frame, and wherein the first lifter at its top end carries at least one horizontal first guide in which a first slider is mounted in a sliding way and the first slider is connected to a yoke in a swinging way while the yoke is connected to the patient surface frame in a swinging way whereas the second lifter carries at its top end at least one horizontal second guide in which at least one second slider is mounted in a sliding way that is connected with a pin to one end of the arm while the third lifter is connected to an opposite end of the arm with another pin.

Abstract
A positioning mechanism of a bed comprising height adjustable lifters (1, 2, 3) that are mounted on the undercarriage (4) and connected to the patient surface frame (5). The first lifter (1) is arranged that its axis intersects the longitudinal axis (6) of the frame (5) and the said lifter (1) is connected to frame (5) oscillatingly around the longitudinal axis (6) of the frame (5) and in a sliding way in the direction of the longitudinal axis (6) of the frame (5). The second lifter (2) and the third lifter (2) are interconnected with an arm (10), oriented transversally to the longitudinal axis (6). The arm (10) is oscillatingly connected to the frame (5) and is connected at one end to the second lifter (2) both oscillatingly around an axis, in parallel with the longitudinal axis (6) of the frame (5) and in a sliding way transversally to the frame (5). At the other end the arm (10) is connected to the third lifter (3), oscillatingly around the axis, in parallel with the longitudinal axis (6) of the frame (5).
