  • Patent number: 6463607
    Abstract: A mattress support, in particular a bed lath grid with a neck support that can be raised with respect to an adjustable backrest has an adjustment mechanism that can be produced easily and economically and that ensures a direct support on the backrest. This is achieved with an adjustment mechanism which has an adjustment lever that is pivotally positioned on a rotational axis. The adjustment lever has a guidance arc that is guided in a restricted guidance fixed on a longitudinal or a transverse beam and a lever arm which is supported on the neck support, so that the adjustment lever can be pivoted around the rotational axis by guiding the guidance arc in the restricted guidance when raising the backrest, and so that the neck support, which moves together with the backrest through the use of the lever arm, can be raised.
