Definitions

  • the invention relates to a chair, in particular an office chair, according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • a mechanism which ensures that when the user shifts weight, e.g. when the user leans back, an anatomically adapted inclination adjustment of the seat and backrest inclination takes place in a coordinated manner.
  • Mechanics of this type are therefore also referred to as synchronous mechanisms.
  • a generic chair, which is provided with such a synchronous mechanism, is known from DE-A-27 57 349.
  • this has the disadvantage that due to the relative movement in the inclination adjustment between the seat and backrest on the clothing of the user in the area of the backrest is perceived as a disturbing train.
  • an adjusting device is pivotally mounted about a horizontal axis on the support column of the base frame, the pivoting movement of the seat and the backrest being coordinated via a triangular link.
  • the rear end of the seat is connected to the lower end of the backrest support column via an articulated lever, this articulation point of the articulated lever being connected to the lower articulated point of the triangular link via a gas spring.
  • This means that the backrest support column is ultimately pivotally connected to it via a parallelogram joint formed by the triangular link, the articulated lever, the gas spring and a section of the seat.
  • Another parallelogram joint is formed between the triangular link and an articulated lever, which engages with one end in the region of the front edge of the seat and the other end is connected to another gas spring.
  • the known embodiment has the further disadvantage that two independent springs must be provided in order to achieve a damping effect of the inclination adjustment movement on the one hand and to achieve a sufficiently high restoring torque on the other, which makes the construction relatively complex and increases the manufacturing costs.
  • the object of the invention is to create a chair of the type mentioned above To design that a well-coordinated synchronous movement between the backrest and the seat, which is perceived by the user as pleasant, is achieved when the user shifts weight, with the aim being a functionally reliable and cost-effective construction.
  • the pivot axis is preferably arranged between the backrest support part and the seat carrier in accordance with claim 3, the movement sequence being able to be influenced by the exact position of the pivot axis.
  • the construction according to the invention basically makes it possible to make do with only a single gas spring.
  • the arrangement of the gas spring according to claim 4 ensures that such a single gas spring is particularly effective both for damping the tilting movements and for the return movements.
  • Claims 5 and 6 indicate a particularly advantageous dimensioning.
  • the locking device provided according to claim 9 can, however, be configured in a particularly simple and effective manner in an arrangement of the gas spring according to the invention, in particular also as an inexpensive, purely mechanical locking device according to claim lo.
  • FIG. 1 An office chair shown in FIG. 1 comprises a base frame 1 with a support column 2 which is connected to a seat support 4 receiving the upholstered seat 3.
  • a seat support 4 receiving the upholstered seat 3.
  • Fig. 1 only the lining 5 of the seat support 4 is shown.
  • the seat 3 is articulated on the one hand to the seat support 4 at its front end and on the other hand to the backrest support part 7.
  • the articulated connection between the seat support 4 and the backrest support part 7 is produced by a pivot pin 10 which passes through the side walls 11, 12 or 13, 14 of the backrest support part 7 or the seat support 4.
  • the backrest Nentrageteil 7 and the seat support 4 are each U-shaped in cross section, with the U-bottoms 15, 16 facing the top, i.e. towards the seat, and wherein the side walls 11, 12 of the backrest support part 7, the side walls 13, 14 of the seat support 4th partially spill over.
  • a seat bracket 19 is pivotally mounted by means of a pivot pin 17, which defines a pivot axis 18.
  • This essentially comprises an L-profile 20 with a bearing box 21 receiving the pivot pin 17 and spacers 22 to which the seat 3 is rigidly attached.
  • a cone 23 for receiving the support column 2 is rigidly fastened to the seat support 4, an actuating lever 25 for adjusting the seat height being provided by a recess 24 in this area by means of a corresponding device, not shown in detail.
  • the backrest support part 7 tapers starting from a kink edge 26 to the rear, where a guide part 27 for the backrest support column 9 is welded on.
  • a clamping screw 28 with actuating lever 29 engages in a bore 3o of the guide part 27, as a result of which the legs of the guide part 27, which is U-shaped in cross section, can be clamped to fix the backrest support column.
  • two rubber buffers 32 are attached to the U-bottom 15 of the backrest support part 7 and, on the other hand, to the rigid seat plate 31 of the seat 3.
  • a gas spring 33 is articulated on the one hand on a pivot pin 34 which passes through holes 35 in the side walls 11, 12 of the backrest support part 7 and on the other hand on a pivot pin 36 which passes through a bore 37 in the side walls 13, 14.
  • the side wall 11 of the backrest support part 7 has a slot 39 running in the form of a circular section, through which an actuating lever 4o engages for a locking device 38.
  • the backrest support part 7 is pivoted about the pivot axis 6 against the spring force of the gas spring 33 until an equilibrium state is reached d, pivoted, the rubber buffer 32 connecting the seat 3 and the backrest support part 7 because of the greater distance from the seat pivot axis 18 than from the backrest support part pivot axis 6 is greater than the angle / 3.
  • the seat holder 19 connected to the seat 3 is pivoted about the pivot axis 18 by the angle ⁇ .
  • the backrest 8 and the seat 3 move from the position shown in solid line in FIG. 2 to the position shown in broken lines in FIG. 2.
  • the distance a between the lower edge 43 of the backrest 8 and the upper edge 44 of the upholstery 45 of the seat 3 changes such that the corresponding new distance a 'is smaller than the original distance, ie, in contrast to previously known constructions, there is no increase the original distance a and accordingly no pull on the clothing of the user.
  • the distance of the lower pivot axis (pivot pin 36) of the gas spring 33 from the pivot axis 6 is approximately half as large as the distance of the pivot axis 6 from the pivot axis 18.
  • the angle T between the longitudinal axis of the gas spring 33 and the U-bottom 15 of the backrest support part 7 is approximately 30 °.
  • the distance of the rubber buffers 32 from the pivot axis 18 is approximately 2 1/2 times as large as the distance from the pivot axis 6.
  • the locking device 38 can be designed particularly simply within the framework of the construction according to the invention, in that it comprises a sleeve part 46 and a piston part 47, the piston part being mounted in the sleeve part so as to be longitudinally displaceable.
  • This arrangement is arranged parallel to the gas spring 33, i.e. the sleeve part 46 is pivotally mounted on the bolt 34 and the piston part 47 on the bolt 36.
  • the confirmation lever 4o has at its free end a threaded bolt 48 which passes through a threaded sleeve 49 which is connected to the side wall 13 of the seat support 4.
