Lifting gear having a lifting frame movable in a movement direction relative to a supporting part of the lifting gear, and method for operating a lifting gear

Abstract

A lifting gear includes a lifting frame movable relative to a supporting part of the lifting gear in a movement direction. The supporting part is arranged on and connected to a base plate, at least one linear guide, at least one bus bar, and a gear rack are fixed in place on the supporting part, an electric motor is situated in the lifting frame, a toothed wheel meshes with the gear rack and is connected in a torsionally fixed manner to a shaft of the electric motor, and a lifting part is connected to the lifting frame. The perpendicular projection of the lifting part onto a plane whose normal direction is aligned in parallel with the movement direction is included in, i.e., for example, encompassed by, the perpendicular projection of the base plate onto this plane.
