Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Sitzanordnung gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to a seating arrangement according to the preamble of claim 1.

Aus dem deutschen Gebrauchsmuster 83 16 606 ist eine Rücksitzan­ ordnung für Kraftfahrzeuge bekannt, bei der Polsterelemente vor­ handen sind, die wahlweise als Kopfstütze oder als Armlehne be­ nutzbar sind. Die Polsterelemente sind mit Halterungen versehen, mit denen sie in entsprechenden Gegenhalterungen in der Sitzbank oder der Rückenlehne befestigbar sind. Ist beispielsweise der Rücksitz in einem Personenkraftwagen mit drei Personen besetzt, so werden alle drei Polsterelemente als Kopfstützen benutzt. Be­ finden sich dagegen nur zwei Mitfahrer auf dem Rücksitz, dann wird zweckmäßigerweise die mittlere Kopfstütze entfernt und als Mittelarmlehne auf der Sitzbank befestigt. Für die beiden Fond­ passagiere bedeutet das eine gewisse Komfortsteigerung; haupt­ sachlich aber profitiert der Fahrzeugführer davon, indem die Sicht nach hinten wegen der nun fehlenden mittleren Kopfstütze deutlich verbessert ist.From the German utility model 83 16 606 is a back seat order known for motor vehicles in the upholstery elements are available, either as a headrest or as an armrest are usable. The upholstery elements are provided with brackets, with which they are in corresponding counter mounts in the seat or the backrest can be attached. For example, if Back seat in a passenger car occupied by three people, so all three upholstery elements are used as headrests. Be however, there are only two passengers in the back seat, then the middle headrest is expediently removed and as Center armrest attached to the bench. For the two funds passengers that means a certain increase in comfort; at all factually, however, the vehicle driver benefits from the Rear view due to the missing central headrest is significantly improved.

Dieser bekannten Anordnung haften jedoch erhebliche Nachteile an. Zum einen ist es nicht nur aufwendig, die Gegenhalterungen in dem Sitzkissen der Sitzbank anzubringen, sie behindern auch den Sitz­ komfort. Darüber hinaus stellen sie - sofern sie in Form offener Löcher zur Aufnahme der Halterungen an dem Polsterelement ausge­ bildet sind - eine nicht unerhebliche Gefahrenquelle dar, weil nicht auszuschließen ist, daß man mit einem Finger in solch ein Loch hineingerät und sich dabei verletzt. Zum anderen kann die Ausführung des Polsterelementes immer nur ein Kompromiß sein, weil grundsätzlich eine Kopfstütze eine andere Formgebung ver­ langt als eine Armlehne.However, this known arrangement has considerable disadvantages. On the one hand, it is not only complex to mount the counter brackets in the Attach seat cushions to the seat, they also hinder the seat Comfort. In addition, they provide - if they are more open in form  Holes for receiving the brackets on the cushion element out forms are a not inconsiderable source of danger because it cannot be ruled out that you can put your finger into one of these Hole got in and injured himself. On the other hand, it can Execution of the upholstery element should always be a compromise, because basically a headrest has a different shape reaches as an armrest.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, bei einer gattungsgemä­ ßen Sitzanordnung eine Möglichkeit zu schaffen, die mittlere Kopfstütze bei Nichtbedarf auf einfache Art aus ihrer Ge­ brauchslage entfernen zu können, um sie bei Bedarf gleich wieder zur Hand zu haben, ohne daß deswegen bauliche Maßnahmen an der Sitzbank vorgenommen werden müssen.The invention has for its object in a generic The seating arrangement creates a way to create the middle one Headrest when not needed in a simple way from your Ge to be able to remove the layer of necessity so that it can be removed immediately if necessary to have on hand without building measures on the Seat must be made.

Diese Aufgabe wird mit den kennzeichnenden Merkmalen des Pa­ tentanspruchs 1 gelöst. Eine vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung der Er­ findung ist Gegenstand des Unteranspruchs.This task is carried out with the characteristic features of Pa claim 1 solved. An advantageous embodiment of the Er invention is the subject of the subclaim.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung wird anhand der Zeichnung nachfolgend näher erläutert. Darin ist eine Rücksitzanordnung für einen Personenkraftwagen in Seitenansicht dargestellt.An embodiment of the invention is based on the drawing explained in more detail below. Inside is a rear seat arrangement for a passenger car shown in side view.

Die Rücksitzanordnung besteht im wesentlichen aus einer Sitzbank 1 und einer Rückenlehne 2. Ferner gehören dazu eine im unteren Bereich der Rückenlehne 2 gelagerte, um eine Achse 3 schwenkbare Mittelarmlehne 4 und für jeden der drei hinteren Sitzplätze eine Kopfstütze, von denen die beiden äußeren 5, 6, die in der Zeich­ nung hintereinanderliegend erscheinen, an der Oberkante der Rückenlehne 2, die mittlere Kopfstütze 7 jedoch am freien Ende der Mittelarmlehne 4 befestigt sind. Die Kopfstützen 5 bis 7 kön­ nen mittels geeigneter Halterungen höhenverstellbar sein, sie können aber auch an die Rückenlehne 2 bzw. an die Mittelarmlehne 4 angeformt sein. The rear seat arrangement essentially consists of a seat 1 and a backrest 2 . Furthermore, this includes a stored in the lower region of the backrest 2 , pivotable about an axis 3 center armrest 4 and for each of the three rear seats, a headrest, of which the two outer 5 , 6 , which appear in the drawing voltage one behind the other, on the upper edge of the Backrest 2 , the middle headrest 7, however, are attached to the free end of the center armrest 4 . The headrests 5 to 7 can be adjusted in height by means of suitable holders, but they can also be integrally formed on the backrest 2 or on the center armrest 4 .

In der Zeichnung ist die Mittelarmlehne 4 in ausgeklappter Po­ sition, also in Gebrauchsstellung, dargestellt. Sie stützt sich dabei mit ihrer Kopfstütze 7 gegen den vorderen Bereich der Sitz­ bank 1 ab. Dadurch kann die Lagerung im Bereich der Achse 3 ge­ ringer dimensioniert werden als bei einer freitragenden Armlehne. Auf der Oberseite der in Gebrauchsstellung befindlichen Mittel­ armlehne 4 kann ein Ablagefach 8 vorgesehen sein. Die herunterge­ klappte Mittelarmlehne 4 stellt einerseits für einen oder zwei Fondinsassen in bekannter Weise eine gewisse Komforterhöhung dar, andererseits vergrößert die mitheruntergeklappter Kopfstütze 7 das rückwärtige Blickfeld des Fahrers.In the drawing, the center armrest 4 is shown in the unfolded position, that is, in the use position. She is supported with her headrest 7 against the front area of the bench 1 . As a result, the bearing in the area of axis 3 can be dimensioned to be smaller than in the case of a cantilever armrest. On the top of the armrest 4 in the position of use, a storage compartment 8 can be provided. The folded down armrest 4 on the one hand represents a certain increase in comfort for one or two rear passengers in a known manner, and on the other hand the headrest 7 folded down increases the driver's rear field of vision.

Falls der mittlere Platz der Rücksitzbank 1 allein oder zusammen mit den beiden äußeren Plätzen besetzt werden soll, muß natürlich die Mittelarmlehne 4 hochgeklappt werden; sie taucht dann in eine oben offene Aussparung in der Rückenlehne 2 ein, ist somit in ih­ rer Eigenschaft als Armlehne also nicht mehr vorhanden, sondern bildet nun einen Teil der Rückenpolsterung für den auf dem mitt­ leren Platz sitzenden Fahrgast, dem damit zugleich die Kopfstütze 7 als Sicherheitseinrichtung zur Verfügung steht.If the middle seat of the rear seat 1 is to be occupied alone or together with the two outer seats, the center armrest 4 must of course be folded up; it then plunges into an open recess in the backrest 2 , is therefore no longer available in its capacity as an armrest, but now forms part of the back upholstery for the passenger seated in the middle seat, who thus also has the headrest 7 is available as a safety device.
