Seating and/or reclining furniture

The invention relates to a piece of seating and/or reclining furniture with an identification device such as a sign or the like.

It is common practice, particularly with benches, to screw or stick signs or similar onto the backrest, bearing the name of the owner or donor or advertising. However, signs attached in this way are easy to damage or remove by unauthorized persons. They are subject to

Recess / e.g. a housing (12) inserted into an opening in the backrest (11) with an interior for receiving an insert such as a text insert, picture insert

(13). This insert (13) can be in the form of a printed cardboard, a labeled paper, a film or the like.

The housing (12) shows a circular outer support plate which receives the insert (13)

(14) and an opposite, also circular cover cap (15) which transparently covers the insert (13) and surrounds the interior.

&ngr;-' On the receiving plate (14) there is a circular-cylindrical extension (16) and a second circular-cylindrical extension (16) which is connected to it (in a step-like manner) and which is located on the same axis and has a smaller diameter. The front side of the extension (17) with a smaller diameter is designed with a receiving recess (18) for an insert (13), whereby the ring-shaped front surface (19) of the extension (16) with a larger diameter is provided as a so-called friction surface for a friction weld seam. In the exemplary embodiment, this ring-shaped front surface (19) faces both the outer surface

&igr; of the projection (16) as well as to the lateral surface of the

extension (17) at a right angle. The ring plate (2ö) adjoining the extension (16) of larger diameter is bent in the area of its outer periphery towards the two extensions (16,17) at an angle of 45°, for example, so that a circular ring groove (22) is formed between the outer surface of the extension (16) and the inner surface of the bent area (21)* The outer surface of the extension (16) of larger diameter

The blade forms a right angle with the base of the annular groove (22), whereby the inner surface of the bevelled area (21) can be at an angle of 45° to the base of the annular groove (22), for example. So that an insert (13) inserted into the receiving recess (18) cannot rotate and is thus clearly fixed, two approximately semicircular projections (23) extend from the outer periphery of the receiving recess (18) facing each other towards the center of the axis, protruding from the base of the receiving recess (18) and not extending beyond the front surface of the projection (17). An inserted insert is equipped in a similar way with corresponding recesses surrounding the projections (23).

From the back of the backrest surface (24) the mounting plate (14) is inserted into the backrest (11).

For this purpose, a continuous opening (25) is made in the backrest (11) at a right angle, to which a hole (26) of larger diameter is connected. This hole (26) accommodates a cover (15) which transparently covers the insert (13) inserted in the support plate (14).

The circular-cylindrical projection (16) of the support plate (14) protruding in the opening (25)

extends over about half the length
the opening (25) to the backrest surface (24)
On the side of the cover cap (15) facing the lettering insert (13) there is a
circular projection (27) arranged, and
in such a way that on the one hand a
Mantle surface of the circular attachment

(27) enclosed circular cylindrical recess

(28) and on the other hand a
Circular ring-shaped
Recess (29) is formed.

The cover cap (15) is inserted into the backrest (11) with the mounting plate (14)
from the backrest surface (24) in
the backrest (11) is inserted, whereby the
still free half of the opening (25) the circular projection (27) of the cover cap (15)
and the circular cylindrical recess (28) formed by this projection (27) the circular cylindrical
Neck (17) of smaller diameter of the receiving plate (14).

In order to ensure that the seat in the backrest (11)

Support plate (14) must not rotate axially j

can, the bottom of the circumferential ring groove j

(22) of the support plate (14) has two opposing bulges (3o), each

(14) - formed bead (32). The mounting plate (14) is thus also secured against axial twisting.

The non-releasable connection between the mounting plate (14) and the cover cap (15) is made by a friction weld seam (33). For this purpose, the front surface (19) of the circular cylindrical extension (16) and the front surface (34)

Q? of the circular projection (27) as friction surfaces

If the cover cap (15) is inserted into the backrest (11) already containing the receiving plate (14), the two end faces (19,34) lie against one another, whereby the height of the circular ring-shaped extension (27) surrounding the circular cylindrical extension (17) is greater than the height of the circular cylindrical extension (17) itself. When the end faces (19,34) lie against one another, this results in a distance between the end face of the circular cylindrical extension (17) and the base of the circular cylindrical recess (28).

The mounting plate (14) protected against twisting is held in place in such a way that it cannot be pushed out of the opening (25) in the backrest (11) when the cover cap (15) is inserted.

When the cover cap (15) is put in place, pressure is exerted in the axial direction, whereby it (15) is simultaneously set in rotation. This heats the material in the area of the two end faces (%9,34) to such an extent that a viscous dough

&bull;&bull;&bull;«&igr; ·« if ■· *

until a viscous state occurs, under the mentioned pressure on the cover cap (15) a connection can be made that can no longer be separated with the mounting plate (14), whereby in the final state the two end faces (19,34j) have been compressed to such an extent that the base of the circular cylindrical recess (28) covers the end face of the circular cylindrical extension (17) flatly.

An inserted insert (13), such as a paper, tape, foil or similar, is thus easily protected from damage or weather influences.

The design according to Fig. 6 corresponds to the design according to Fig. 3 with the difference that the cover cap (15) is not welded to the mounting plate (14) (weld seam 33) but both housing parts are screwed together detachably using thread 35. One threaded part is formed on the insert (17) of the mounting plate (14) and the other threaded part is formed on the shoulder (27) of the cover cap (15).

It is also within the scope of the invention to glue the cover cap (15) and the mounting plate (14) to each other or to the sitting and/or lying surface on suitable surfaces.
