Folding hinge

The folding rail's motor receives its power from the unit. The contact between the unit and the folding
rail's motor is effected by means of wiper contacts.
These wiper contacts are identical to those of the charging station; however they do not charge the
batteries.
The position of the contact is stated on the data card.
Malfunctions of the mechanism cannot be rectified, and consequently in such instances the entire me-
chanism will need to be replaced.
The electric control of the folding rail
The folding rail is equipped with two switches. The switches are connected in series with a diode, and
consequently determine the direction of rotation of the motor. Also the printed circuit can determine the
end positions of the folding hinge.
Below the scheme of the folding hinge.
