Definitions

  • This invention relates to furniture and, more particularly, to apparatus for providing a resilient edge support in furniture having a support member and a load bearing seat portion.
  • one method of providing a seat is to fabricate a support member and to locate on or in the support member a load bearing portion.
  • the load bearing portion is arranged to provide resilient support when sat upon but comfort is impaired, at least at a front edge of the seat, due to a rigid portion of the support member defining, or supporting material defining, the said edge.
  • a disadvantage of such proposed resilient edge supports is that, because they are each supported on a resilient load bearing portion, they will move when forces are applied to and released from the load bearing portion causing stress in material supported by the resilient edge supports and eventual fracture of the material.
  • apparatus for providing a resilient edge support in furniture having a support member and a load bearing seat portion, wherein the apparatus comprises:-
  • the locating means may comprise a first series of members and the support means may comprise a first clongate member connecting the members of the first series.
  • the securing means may comprises a second series of members extending parallel one to another and each adapted to engage a second elongate member extending at right angles to the parallel axes of the second series of members, the second elongate member extending parallel to the first elongate member.
  • the first and second elongate members may comprise opposite sides of a rectangular frame.
  • the members of the first series of members are integral with corresponding ones of members of the second series of members.
  • the members of the first and second series of members are of a single integral construction.
  • each member of the first series is integral with a corresponding member of the second series
  • Each of the members of the first and second series comprises two spaced parallel portions of wire connected by a bridging portion.
  • the apparatus 10 comprises an elongate wire bent to form a series of parallel laterally spaced first projections 11 integral with an alternate series of parallel laterally spaced second projections 12.
  • Each of the first projections 11 comprises a pair of members 13 and 14 extending parallel one to another and formed integrally with a bridging member 15.
  • Each of the second projecting 12 comprises a pair of members 16 and 17 extending parallel one to another and formed integrally with a bridging member 18.
  • the members 16 and 17 are contained in a plane inclined to a plane containing the members 13 and 14 so that the bridging members 18 extend in a plane above the bridging members 15 and each of the members 16, 17 is integral with an adjacent one of the members 13, 14 and an intermediate loop portion 19.
  • the loop portions 19 have extending therethrough one long side 20 of an elongate rectangular wire frame 21, the opposite long side 22 of which is connected to each of the bridging members 18 by means of clips 23.
  • the apparatus 10 is located adjacent a front portion 24 of a rectangular support member 25 having a rear portion 26.
  • the rear portion 26 has secured thereto in longitudinal spaced relation end portions of parallel strips of elastic webbing 27, the longitudinal axes of the strips 27 extending at right angles to the rear portion 26 towards the front portion 24 of the support member 25.
  • Opposite end portions of the strips 27 are guided around the long side 20 of the frame 21 and secured tp intermediate portions thereof as shown at 29.
  • the apparatus 10 then is moved towards the front portion 24 of the support member 25, thereby extending the strips 27, and the bridging members 15 are secured to the front portion 24 by clips (not shown).
  • the strips 27 are "supported in tension across the support member 25 and provide a load bearing portion.
  • the frame is covered with fabric which extends over the apparatus 10 and defines an edge adjacent the long side 22 of the wire frame 21.
  • the long side 22 of the wire frame 21 and the front portion 24 of the support member 25 are connected by strips of cord to provide initial tensioning of the members 16, 17 towards the members 13, 14.
  • FIGURE 2 of the drawings there is shown a single spring 30 having the members 13 to 18.
  • a plurality of springs 30 are used in association with the frame 21 instead of a length of wire formed integrally with the members 13 to 18.
