A support element (58) is inserted into the tappet (52) on the side of the plunger base (35) facing away from the covering (54) and maintains the plunger base (35) in a position in which it rests on the covering (54).

The fulcrum rods translate relative to the fulcrum tubes while the fulcrum tubes rotate relative to the fulcrum housings.

The support device comprises a support plate (16) with a support surface (17).

The fulcrum device includes a first fulcrum slot and a second fulcrum slot formed through opposing edges of the fulcrum device.

The support body (3) has a support area and protruding support portions (23).

The supporting pad may be used as a nose pad, a forehead-engaging pad or a temple end-mounted pad.

The skirt panel can be fitted for installation as a skirt panel or as an overlay to an already installed skirt panel.

The skirt may include alternating flutes (70) and lands (74) that are configured such that recesses (78) are formed in a majority of the flutes.

Backrest and support requirements

A second tab (22) is secured to the second slat (14), the second tab (22) being aligned relative to the first tab (16).

A second skirt, overlapping the first skirt, is disclosed also.

The bearing support includes a plurality of bearing plates.

The invention relates to a supporting unit (60.1) for a supporting device (51), to a supporting device (51) composed of a plurality of supporting units (60.1 -60.11) and to a conveyor comprising a supporting device (51).
