  • Patent number: 5495629
    Abstract: The support grid for a lying, reclining or sitting furniture, particularly for a bed, according to the present invention comprises a plurality of support elements (1), e.g., laths, and at least two spring bodies (2), the latter being positioned transversely to the laths, the laths rest on the spring bodies and are fastened thereto. The laths have in cross-section a curved support under surface and are so fixed to the spring bodies that they can be pivoted to a limited extent with respect to the spring bodies about an axis running parallel to the longitudinal lath axis. As a result of this pivoting possibility each lath is given a further degree of freedom making it possible for it to adapt further to the shape of a body resting on the lath grid than is possible through the elasticity of the spring body. This increases the lying of sitting comfort of the support grid according to the invention.
