The racks each mesh with respective gears of a height adjustment drive connected with the bracket. The frame also has guide rails in which respective runners are longitudinally guided, each of which, together with a longitudinal adjustment rack, forms a structural unit. Respective gears of a longitudinal adjustment drive, connected with the guide rails, engage these racks.
