Problems solved by technology

[0005] Aside from the fact that the control box is of rigid construction, i.e. it must be determined from the outset whether it is intended for a specific purpose or whether it is to be made into a standard type, the control box is excellent, in some cases its size is too large
Also, the box takes up disproportionately too much space

Embodiment Construction

[0025] As shown in Figures 2 to 6, the control box of the present invention is particularly useful in hospital and nursing beds as well as therapy beds.

[0026] It is evident from FIG. 2 that the control box comprises a lower part 2 in the form of a flat rectangular closed box-shaped housing, the upper side of which has a flat area 7 . Along one long side of the lower part, this planar area 7 is delimited by a height with a plurality of upstanding gates 3 for the connection of various cables to the control printed circuit board contained in the lower part 2 . Gates are used to connect actuators, mobile phones and optional foot controls and control boards such as the ACP. Two closed box-shaped housings 5 ​​, 6 which form the upper part 4 of the control box can be arranged in the planar region 7 of the lower part 2 . A housing 5 houses a transformer-based power supply connected to the mains. The upper side of the housing 5 is sloped at the gate end with the mains cable 9 , in...

Abstract

A control box for electrical actuators comprises a cabinet consisting of a lower part (2) containing a control printed circuit board and provided with a row of gates (3) for various plugs, and an upper part (4) with a power supply and optionally also a battery pack. The lower part (2) is configured as an independent closed housing, and the upper part (4) is configured as two independent closed housings (5, 6). The upper side of the lower part (2) is provided with a surface area (7) for receiving a lower side of the two independent housings (5, 6) of the upper part, and means (13, 14; 16, 17) are provided in the lower part and the two housings of the upper part for securing the housings of the upper part to the lower part. The housings of the upper part do not or essentially do not extend outside the surface area (7).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a control box for an electric actuator, preferably for an adjustable furniture item. Background technique [0002] In furniture, actuators are used, for example, to adjust furniture items. For example, the support surface of a mattress, the backrest of a chair, the height of a table, etc. can be adjusted. [0003] Single or multiple actuators are connected by cables to a control box containing the electronic control, mains-connected power supply and optional battery pack consisting of rechargeable batteries or a float battery. The control box also has connections for at least one mobile phone and an optional additional control board. Examples of hospital beds are described in EP488 552 by J. Nesbit Evans & Co. Ltd. and WO01 / 47340 by Hill-Rom Services. Inc. . [0004] figure 1 An example of such a control box is shown in . This is a control box for LINAK A / S with model CB12. The control box consists of a box 1 with a lower...
