Abstract

The sitting and/or lying element has wooden slats (3) supported on a supporting part (1) with interposition of two resilient strips (2), and a foamed-plastic pad (6) lying thereon, as well as a cover covering the sitting and/or lying element. The supporting part (1) is formed from a hollow laminate moulding of glued cardboard or cardboard-like fibre-material layers and the resilient strips (2) consist of composite-foam profiles running on the front-and-rear side longitudinal side of the laminate moulding (1). Arranged on the wooden slats (3) with interposition of a protective covering (4) are metallic interior springs (5) and/or a single- or multi-layer foamed-plastic pad (6). The laminate moulding (1), the composite-foam profiles (2), the wooden slats (3), the protective covering (4) and the foamed-plastic pad (6) are joined together by adhesive bonding. <IMAGE>

Description

The invention relates to a seat and / or Lying element, with on a supporting part with interposition spring wood slats carried by two spring strands and one foam pad on top and a seat and / or covering element covering.

Such a seating and / or lying element is made of DE-OS 34 13 156 and DE-GM 92 05 562 have become known.

In DE-OS 34 13 156, the spring strands of inflatable tubes formed on which the Support wooden slats. These inflatable tubes however, do not result in an adequate attitude to the Spring action and no damping, and are due their inflatable design is relatively expensive for the entire seating and / or lying element.

In the DE-GM 92 05 562 the spring strands of latexed coconut fibers are formed and in these strands recesses to adjust the spring characteristic be provided for the slats. This too Spring strands do not result in sufficient spring and Damping effect.

The object of the invention is one after the beginning mentioned type constructed seating and / or lying element to improve that in simpler and more permanent  durable way in connection with a support part Base with a special arrangement and design the spring strands and the cushion cover an optimal spring and damping property and a high for the user Sitting and lying comfort is achieved.

Furthermore, the components of the seat and / or Lying element in itself and in their connection an optimal Recyclability result.

The object is achieved by the characterizing Features of claim 1 solved; who adhere to it subsequent subclaims Design features, which are advantageous and beneficial Represent further training in task solving.

The seating and / or lying element according to the invention has Support part (base) made of glued layers Cardboard, paper, fibrous materials or the like malleable laminate molded body that is high in itself Stability and yet a certain suspension property Has. On this laminate molded body are under Interposition of composite foam strands Spring wooden slats and a metallic spring core and / or a foam pad is placed, and all Components of the element are connected by gluing.

The innerspring with the slats and the Interposition of composite strands results on the one hand a very good suspension and damping property, and the via the laminate molded body on the front and back protruding foam padding results for the seat and / or lying surface in front of and behind the spring core or the Spring slats softer upholstery areas, so these three Spring areas for the user a very high seating and  Lying comfort and the sitting and lying area adapts favorably to the respective position of the user.

Due to the choice of materials for the components and the Adhesive connection is the entire seating and / or lying element recyclable down to the metallic innerspring. Farther can the foam pad in one or more layers different hardnesses, what else additionally influencing the suspension and damping of the Seating and / or lying surface results.

Such elements can easily be extended or seating and / or reclining furniture arranged in a corner be put together.

Another advantage of the seat and / or lying element is in the low weight and yet great stability due to the laminate molded body and the individual elements for the upholstery and suspension.

In the drawing, an embodiment is in variation shown, which is explained in more detail below. It shows:

Fig. 1 shows a cross section through a seat and / or bed component with laminate-molded body slatted springs and foam pad,

Fig. 2 shows a cross section through the same element, but without a spring core.

This seating and / or lying element for forming the seat and / or reclining furniture, such as chairs, sofa, couch, bed, cot or the like. Has a carrying section (1) as a stand or base (base body) which is of a hollow laminate - Shaped body ( 1 ) is formed from glued cardboard or cardboard-like or paper-like layers of fibrous material.

On the front and rear long side of the laminate molded body ( 1 ), a spring strand ( 2 ) formed by a composite foam profile is arranged, on which spring wooden slats ( 3 ) rest to form a slatted frame.

A metallic spring core ( 5 ) and / or a single or multi-layer foam pad ( 6 ) is arranged on the spring wooden slats ( 3 ) with the interposition of a protective cover ( 4 ).

The laminate molded body ( 1 ), the composite foam profiles ( 2 ), the spring wood strips ( 3 ), the protective cover ( 4 ) and the foam cover ( 6 ) are connected to each other by gluing.

The composite foam profiles ( 2 ) are formed from full, preferably square or rectangular, full extruded profiles (rod profiles) made of elastic and / or flexible plastics.

The underside of the composite foam profiles ( 2 ) enter into a fixed connection by gluing them to the laminate molded body ( 1 ) and the spring wood strips ( 3 ) with their length ends by gluing them to the composite foam profiles ( 2 ).

The metallic spring core ( 5 ) extends over the entire length and most of the depth of the seating and / or lying element and lies in a recess ( 7 ) of the single-layer or multi-layer foam pad ( 6 ) between the spring core ( 5 ) and spring wood slats ( 3 ) and between the spring core ( 5 ) and the foam pad ( 6 ), a protective pad ( 4 ) made of felt is fixed by gluing on the spring wooden strips ( 3 ) and on the foam pad ( 6 ).

The foam pad ( 6 ) overlaps the spring core ( 5 ) on the front and rear with pulled-down edge areas ( 8 , 9 ) which protrude over the laminate molded body ( 1 ) on the front and rear.

A soft foam layer ( 10 ) can be attached to the foam pad ( 6 ) by gluing and a nonwoven layer ( 11 ) can be glued thereon, and both layers ( 10 , 11 ) are on the front around the edge area ( 8 ) of the foam pad ( 6 ) to the laminate - Shaped body ( 1 ) pulled around and end on the back at the edge area ( 9 ).

The laminate molded body ( 1 ) has a flat rectangular cross-section with rounded cross-sectional corners and a convex front arch ( 1 a) running down and to the rear.

A cover ( 12 ), preferably a textile cover, is pulled over the non-woven layer ( 11 ) around the foam pad ( 6 ), runs from the front to below the laminate molded body ( 1 ), and is on the back to the laminate molded body ( 1 ) guided and fixed to the laminate molded body ( 1 ) by gluing, staples ( 13 ), nailing or the like, this cover ( 12 ) comprising the edge regions ( 8 , 9 ) in shape.

In the embodiment of the seating and / or lying element according to Fig. 2 without a spring core (5) has a thicker, by gluing mounted single- or multilayer foam pad (6) with the interposition of the cover support (4) on the slats (3) is provided.

In Fig. 1 the foam pad ( 6 ) is shown in two layers of different hard (elastic) layers and has a graduated or separate foam part ( 6 a) on the front to close the edge area ( 8 ).

In Fig. 2, the denser foam pad ( 6 ) with the molded-on foam part ( 6 a) is shown in a single-layer design, which can also be multi-layer.

The different hardnesses in the foam pad ( 6 ) can be achieved in terms of production in a one-piece pad or can be achieved by adhesive bonding of several layers.

( 14 ) denotes a laminate plate part attached to the laminate molded body ( 1 ) at the ends, which on the one hand additionally stiffens the molded body ( 1 ) and on the other hand serves for connecting seat and / or lying elements to be joined together by screws or the like.

( 15 ) denotes a backrest which can be assigned to the seat and / or lying element and connected to it.
