Definitions
- the present invention relates to a transformable seat, that is to say a seat that can occupy at least two positions s , namely a high position or chair position, and a lower position corresponding to a chair position.
- the seat in question can just as easily be a seat for one person as a seat for several people, such as a bench or a bench seat.
- the transformable seats are of complex design since requiring an articulation of the seat on the back on the one hand, as well as these elements on the base on the other hand.
- the front part of the base is secured to the backrest, that on this is articulated the rear part of the base, which is itself articulated at its upper part on the front of the seat, the rear part of which is itself associated in an adjustable manner with the backrest.
- the present invention aims to remedy these drawbacks by providing a transformable seat of very simple design.
- the seat which it relates to of the type comprising a frame carrying the seat and the backrest, on either side of which are mounted two lateral parts which, forming a base, are braced, each lateral part comprising a transverse slide, in which is engaged a finger secured to the frame carrying the seat and the backrest, and a stop on which the frame can come to bear, the slide formed in each lateral part is inclined so that its ends are at substantially different heights and is used to permanently house a single finger projecting from the seat frame in the area thereof corresponding to the connection between the seat and the backrest, two stops being associated with each lateral part, located at different levels, the highest of which is located on the side of the bottom end of the slide and the lowest of which is located on the side of the end top of the slide.
- the seat occupies a first position.
- the second position is obtained when the fingers are in the lower position of the slides and the frame is in abutment on the lower stops.
- the high position corresponds to the chair position, while the low position corresponds to a rest position identical to that obtained in an armchair.
- the seat may or may not be identical to the backrest.
- the fingers engaged in the slides are secured to the frame in the area thereof corresponding to the connection between the seat and the backrest, the lower end of each slide being located lower than the corresponding lower stop, while the upper end of each slide is located substantially at the stop. high corresponding.
- the seat is substantially horizontal, when the assembly is in the high position, which is desirable if one wishes to obtain a chair position, for example if the seat is to be used in front of a table.
- the seat when the seat is in the low position, the seat is tilted slightly backwards, which corresponds to the position obtained in the chairs.
- the means for locking each finger in the upper part of a slide consist of a downward recess that the latter presents.
- This arrangement makes the transformation of the seat extremely simple since, when moving from the low position to the high position, the fingers automatically fall into the recesses under the effect of gravity, while to move from the high position to the low position , it suffices to slightly lift the assembly comprising the seat and the backrest to free the fingers from the recesses in which they are engaged.
- the upper and lower stops are constituted by crosspieces forming spacers connecting the two lateral parts of the seat.
- the bench shown in the drawing includes a frame 2 on which are slats forming, respectively, the seat 3 and the back 4 in the position shown in Figure 2.
- the seat and the back have identical dimensions, and are coated by a padded cushion 5.
- This bench has two lateral parts arranged on either side of the frame 2.
- Each lateral part has two vertical uprights, respectively 6 and 7, connected by a horizontal lower spacer 8, an upper spacer 9 also horizontal and forming an armrest, and an inclined spacer 10.
- the spacer 10 has, opening in its face facing the interior of the seat, a lumen 12 whose upper part has a recess 13 downwards.
- the two lateral parts of the seat are connected by two crosspieces, 14 and 15 respectively, the upper part of the crosspiece 14 being located at the recess 13 of the light 12, while the upper face of the lower crosspiece 15 is located slightly at the above the lower end of the slot 12.
- the frame 2 carries, at its two ends, two coaxial fingers 16 each engaged in the slot 12 of a spacer 10.
- the fingers 16 are located in the junction zone between the seat and the backrest, but slightly offset from the side of the part 3.
- FIG. 2 The first position that this seat is capable of taking is shown in FIG. 2.
- the part 3 of the seat forms a horizontal seat, of height corresponding substantially to the height of a chair.
- the part 3 which formed the seat becomes the backrest and the part 4 which formed the backrest becomes the seat.
- the seat is in a lower position than previously and the seat inclined relative to the horizontal, which corresponds to a rest position for the user.
- the invention brings a great improvement to the existing technique by providing a transformable seat, of design extremely simple and whose aesthetic is not altered by the transformation mechanism.
- the invention also relates to seats of different sizes, for example for one person, made of different materials.
