Definitions

  • the invention relates to a chair with three or four legs and a wooden frame connecting these legs, which supports the seat.
  • Such chairs are known in different constructions with and without backrests and with and without armrests.
  • the frames are formed by dowelling or mortising crossbars between the chair legs and the chair legs themselves.
  • there is no self-contained frame so that if one of the spars is loosened, the entire composite of the frame or even the entire chair becomes unstable.
  • the individual attachment of the various bars to the individual chair legs is complex. Practically two fastenings must be carried out on each chair leg. These often have to be offset in height so that the fastening of one spar does not impair that of a spar that runs at right angles to it. In addition, it is difficult to make such chairs stackable.
  • the frame connecting the chair legs consists of the number of chair legs corresponding to many individual frame pieces which are bent outward from their straight course in the area of their contact points and have a straight continuation following the bend , each of the continuations of abutting frame parts brought together and connected at their contact point, for. B. are toothed and glued and at their common free end a paragraph as a stop and from there up to its end face have a reduced cross-section that fits into a slot in the chair leg up to the stop.
  • the extensions can thus project outward at the corners of the frame and be inserted directly into the respective chair leg and bring about a firm connection of the frame parts. Because of these outward-pointing projections, the frame runs at a certain distance from the chair legs within the contour of these chair legs, the frame having a great stability due to its connecting construction, additionally joined at its connection points through the slots of the chair legs will hold and can absorb the forces emanating from the chair legs well.
  • a stackable chair can be formed in a simple manner when using a seat surface approximately the size of the frame, since the chair legs located further out each over the Seat of such a chair can be inserted.
  • the teeth in the area of the projections which serve for connection and stability, can therefore be easily produced because the frame is made of wood. It can thus be provided and glued together the usual toothing from woodworking with the known profiles of wood connections.
  • the frame parts can consist of solid wood or of plywood, individual wood layers in the longitudinal direction of the frame part and other wood layers can be oriented transversely thereto.
  • the respective merged and connected ends of the frame parts can be bent under the influence of steam in a production of solid wood.
  • the bend In the case of plywood manufacture, the bend can be shaped and glued during the manufacture of the frame part.
  • the teeth at the contact points of the frame parts are expediently arranged approximately horizontally and parallel one above the other in their longitudinal direction, in order to be able to absorb and transmit the forces occurring transversely to the frame plane with certainty.
  • a combination of the features and measures described above results in a chair of high strength and stability, in which, however, only one attachment point is provided for the stabilizing frame on each chair leg, and which can be made stackable in a simple manner due to the outwardly projecting retaining projections of the frame can.
  • a chair designated as a whole has four legs 2, the two of which are extended beyond the seat surface 4 to accommodate a backrest 3.
  • the four legs 2 are connected by a support frame made of wood, generally designated 5, which also supports the seat surface or seat plate 4.
  • the frame 5 consists of a number of frame pieces 6, corresponding to the number of chair legs 2, that is, in the exemplary embodiment consists of four frame pieces 6, each of which follows its straight line in the area of its four contact points 7 are curved outside.
  • a straight continuation 9 is provided following the respective bend 8 of a frame part 6 and that the continuations 9 of abutting frame parts 6 are brought together and connected at their contact point, for. B. are interlocked and glued according to FIG. 4.
  • FIG. 4 At their common free end one can see in Fig. 3 a paragraph as a stop 10 and from there to the end face 11, the cross section of the merged frame parts is reduced.
  • FIG. 3 a paragraph as a stop 10 and from there to the end face 11, the cross section of the merged frame parts is reduced.
  • the connected continuations 9 fit into a slot 12 of the respective chair leg 2 up to the stop 10.
  • the continuations 9 are thus through their Connection formed as projections, each of which points outwards at the corners of the frame 5 and are inserted directly into the respective chair leg 2. They thereby bring about a firm connection of the frame parts, this connection in turn being supported by the receiving slot 12 of the respective chair leg 2, which firmly encloses these projections and extensions 9.
  • the extensions 9 are each bent by 135 ° relative to the frame parts 6 within the frame plane.
  • the projections formed by two connected continuations 9 thus extend the diagonals of the frame 5.
  • connection of the frame parts has a multiple function, namely first of all to connect the frame parts, but on the other hand also to lay the chair legs outwards for stackability in relation to the frame 5 and only one on each of these chair legs Need opening 12 to connect to the frame 5. It is advantageous that this opening 12 additionally prevent the inserted extensions of the frame parts 6 from detaching from one another.
  • the slots 12 of the chair legs 2 clasp these contact points 7 of the continuations 9.
