A bed, in particular a sickbed or nursing bed, comprises a height-adjustable bedstead to be supported on a floor, a fixing brake having an actuator adapted to be moved between a braking position and a release position and to be operated by hand or by foot, and at least one brake element which is pressed to the floor in the braking position of the actuator, and is spaced apart from the floor in the release position of the actuator. The actuator is adapted to be automatically placed into the brake position by a bedstead element when the lowermost position of the bedstead has been reached.

What is claimed is: 1. A bed, in particular a sickbed or nursing bed, comprising a height-adjustable bedstead to be supported on a floor, a fixing brake comprising an actuator adapted to be moved between a braking position and a release position and to be operated by hand or by foot, and at least one brake element which is pressed to the floor in the braking position of the actuator, and is spaced apart from the floor in the release position of the actuator, wherein the actuator is adapted to be automatically placed into the brake position by a bedstead element when the lowermost position of the bedstead has been reached. 2. The bed according to claim 1, wherein the bedstead comprises a frame and length-adjustable and/or pivotable legs supported at said frame, wherein the at least one brake element is arranged at least one of the legs or between two legs, and wherein the actuator, in its release position, extends into a path along which the bedstead element moves when the bedstead is lowered into the lowermost position. 3. The bed according claim 2, wherein the actuator is mechanically coupled to the brake element via a knee lever mechanism. 4. The bed according to claim 1, wherein the bedstead comprises castors, and wherein at least one of the castors is lifted with respect to the floor when the brake element is pressed to the floor. 5. The bed according to claim 4, wherein the actuator is mechanically coupled to the brake element via a knee lever mechanism. 6. The bed according to claim 1, wherein the actuator is mechanically coupled to the brake element via a knee lever mechanism.
