Abstract

A support device for a vehicle includes a support foot configured to place on a base and a support unit connected to the support foot. The support unit includes a tubular support element. The support foot includes a plate-shaped bearing element. The plate-shaped bearing element includes an engagement contour on at least one outer face, a support unit of another support device being attachable to said engagement contour in order to secure against a lateral displacement.

First claim

1 .- 11 . (canceled)

12 . A support device for a vehicle comprising:
a support foot configured to place on a base; and a support unit connected to the support foot; wherein the support unit comprises a tubular support element; wherein the support foot comprises a plate-shaped bearing element; wherein the plate-shaped bearing element includes an engagement contour on at least one outer face, a support unit of another support device being attachable to the engagement contour in order to secure against a lateral displacement; and wherein the engagement contour is configured and dimensioned to attach and/or accommodate a support unit similar to the support unit of the support device.

13 . The support device of claim 12 , wherein the engagement contour has a recess in the plate-shaped bearing element, in which the support unit of the further support device may be accommodated.

14 . The support device of claim 13 , wherein the recess has a stepped contour, forming at least two recess areas for accommodating differently configured and/or dimensioned support units.

15 . The support device of claim 14 , wherein the engagement contour has an engagement element for engaging into a cavity of the support unit to be attached.

16 . The support device of claim 15 , wherein the engagement contour is configured and dimensioned to attach and/or accommodate a tubular support element and/or a mounting plate of the further support device.

17 . The support device of claim 16 , wherein the engagement contour has a recess with a width corresponding to a cross-sectional width of the tubular support element and/or a width of the mounting plate.

18 . The support device of claim 17 , wherein the engagement contour is configured on an outer face of the plate-shaped bearing element, which outer face runs transverse to a swivel axis, along which the support foot is pivotably mounted on the support unit.

19 . The support device of claim 18 , wherein the engagement contour is configured on an outer face of the bearing element, which outer face runs transverse to outer faces or outer edges provided with a rolling area.

20 . The support device of claim 19 , wherein the plate-shaped bearing element has at least two engagement contours formed on opposite outer faces of the plate-shaped bearing element.

21 . An arrangement of at least two support devices according to claim 12 , wherein the two support devices are similarly configured.

22 . The arrangement of claim 21 , wherein a respective upper area of the tubular support element rests against the support foot of the respective adjacent support device.

23 . The support device of claim 12 , wherein the engagement contour has an engagement element for engaging into a cavity of the support unit to be attached.

24 . The support device of claim 12 , wherein the engagement contour is configured and dimensioned to attach and/or accommodate a tubular support element and/or a mounting plate of the further support device.

25 . The support device of claim 24 , wherein the engagement contour has a recess with a width corresponding to a cross-sectional width of the tubular support element and/or a width of the mounting plate.

26 . The support device of claim 12 , wherein the engagement contour is configured on an outer face of the plate-shaped bearing element, which outer face runs transverse to a swivel axis, along which the support foot is pivotably mounted on the support unit.

27 . The support device of claim 12 , wherein the engagement contour is configured on an outer face of the bearing element, which outer face runs transverse to outer faces or outer edges provided with a rolling area.

28 . The support device of claim 12 , wherein the plate-shaped bearing element has at least two engagement contours formed on opposite outer faces of the plate-shaped bearing element.
