Definitions

  • the invention relates to seating furniture in accordance with the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • the eccentric In the known clamping devices, the eccentric is in any case supported on a stationary part of the seating furniture. Therefore, the axial movement required for the manufacture or solution of the La ellen frictional connection is effected exclusively by the axial thrust of the non-stationary (drive) part of the eccentric, which must be designed for a correspondingly long thrust because the increase in the eccentric curve is extremely ge ⁇ ring.
  • the invention has for its object to develop a seating of the type mentioned in such a way that, with more favorable conditions for rational series production, the pivoting path of the lever for operating the eccentric is relatively short despite the slight increase in the eccentric curve and thanks to this slight increase in the eccentric curve at the same time, an extremely low actuating force for the eccentric is required.
  • This object is achieved by the features mentioned in the characterizing part of claim 1.

  • the clamping device is accommodated in the supporting position 10a; 10a 1 by vertical ribs of the seat part which are arranged approximately symmetrically to the plane of symmetry aa of the seating furniture.
  • the clamping device comprises a package (plate package 12; 12 ') of plates 12a; 12a 1 which are articulated on the backrest and / or on the seat part support. It also includes
  • the clamping means comprises a manually operable eccentric 17; 17 'for controlling the clamping device by means of relative displacement (Reibschlußverschiebung) between tensioning bolt 14,14' on one hand and plate pack and Reibschluß ⁇ disk package 13,13 'on the other. It is essential that the 0 Klenm worn as a structural unit on Reibschlußin 13a; 10a aufgeno ⁇ men is 1 and held in its axial position by the disk pack; 13a 'axially movable in the Stitzlagem 10a.
  • the lever which is mounted on clamping bolts via its swivel axis 16; 16 'and engages on the end face side of the frictional clutch pack, is designed as a self-locking eccentric 17; 17'.
  • self-locking eccentric In the above sense, an eccentric is understood, the eccentric curves of which act on the friction disk package 13; 13 'with such a flat angle of inclination that the eccentric cannot be released by itself thanks to the frictional forces acting between the eccentric curves and the end face of the friction disk package can
  • the friction plate assembly 13; 13 ' is ' constructed and arranged such that a plane of symmetry perpendicular to its axis coincides approximately with the plane of symmetry aa of the seating furniture.
  • the clamping device is held approximately by the lamellae 12a, 12a 'articulated at one end or at both ends on an articulation axis.
  • the pivot axis 16; 16 'of the eccentric 17; 17' is designed as a cylindrical bearing bolt which is perpendicular to the clamping bolt and is penetrated by it via a bore.
  • the bearing pin has an internal thread in its bore with the clamping pin 14; 14 'engaged.
  • the eccentric 17; 17 * has two eccentric disks 17a; 17a 1 , which are mounted on the free ends of the bearing pin serving as pivot axis 16; 16 '.
  • the support bearings 10a; 10a 'located on one side of the symmetry plane aa are each penetrated by a single friction disk 13a; 13a *.
  • the friction washers 13b; 13b ' which are arranged in the area between the plates 12a; 12a', the friction washers 13a; 13a 1 in the area of the support bearings 10a; 10a 'have a much larger dimension in their axial direction.
  • All support bearings 10a; 10a ' are part of " a single casting, which is a plastic injection molding in the exemplary embodiment of FIGS. 1-3,3a and an aluminum casting in the exemplary embodiment of FIGS. 4-6,6a.
  • the seat shell lies on the edge of the support shell 10 and is also supported and centered on its support columns 10f.
  • numerous reinforcing ribs 10c run symmetrically to the plane of symmetry aa.
  • Sleeves are formed on two vertical stiffening ribs running parallel to this plane of symmetry aa, which form the support bearing 10a for the adhesive direction.
  • the support surfaces for the armrests are held by lOD fastening surfaces. Breakthroughs 10 serve to guide the actuating element for the height adjustment of the seat part.
  • An upward shaping 10g in the bottom of the support shell 10 creates a space for pivoting the eccentric 17.
  • an approximately cuboid housing part 10h is formed, which is open at the rear.
  • a support 11 formed by a hollow plastic injection molding is delimited by means of pivot axis 30 and is pivotably supported.
  • the plastic molding runs out into an approximately vertical sleeve 11a, which is suitable for receiving the support for the backrest.
  • a Rickstell ⁇ spring 31 gives the backrest the tendency to lean towards the user of the seating furniture, who brings about the desired inclination of the backrest by appropriately leaning against the backrest.
  • the articulation axis 18 is mounted in the carrier 11 at a distance from the pivot axis 30 and parallel to it.
  • the seat part and thus also the seat shell 10 are rigidly attached to the central support spindle of the seating furniture.
  • a sleeve 10b is formed in the seat shell 10 and is lined by a metal bushing 25.
  • the support shell 10 is seen as a functional part, as is the seat part carrier, which receives the seat part in the form of the seat shell.
  • the seat part is formed by a support frame 10 'and a seat shell (not shown in the drawing).
  • the latter is mounted on support surfaces 10d 'of the support frame and connected to it by means of fastening elements 10f.
  • Frame legs of the support frame 10 'running parallel to the symmetry plane aa each have two stiffening ribs 10c 1 ; 10c' 1 , which likewise run parallel to the symmetry plane aa.
  • the support bearings 10a 1 for the clamping device are formed by coaxial bores in these stiffening ribs 10c ', 10c M.
  • the thin stiffening ribs 10c 1 '(Fig. 4.6) run close to the plane of symmetry aa.
  • the articulation axis 18 ' is received in tabs 20a of the support 20 for the backrest, which is articulated by means of a bearing sleeve 22 to an axis 31 of the support frame 10'.
  • the support frame 10 ' is pivotally connected to the seat part carrier 23 by means of its pivot bearing pins 10k.
  • the pivot bearing journals 10k are received in position bushings 23a, which are molded onto the seat part carrier 23.
  • the seat part carrier 23 is received by the support spindle of the base frame via the central bore 23b.
  • the inclination of the seat part can be adjusted by the user of the seating furniture by appropriate shifting of the center of gravity against the action of a return spring 37, which is supported at 33 at 33 on the support frame 10 'and at the other end on the non-pivotable seat part carrier 23.
  • a return spring 37 which is supported at 33 at 33 on the support frame 10 'and at the other end on the non-pivotable seat part carrier 23.
  • the slats 12a 'of the plate pack 12 * are articulated on the one hand on an articulation axis 34 of the seat part carrier 23 and on the other end on the articulation axis 18' of the backrest.
  • the spatial assignment of the articulation axes 18 ', 34 and the clamping bolt 14' is such that, when the inclination is adjusted with the clamping device, there is an adjustment ratio between the seat part 23 and the backrest of approximately 1: 2.

Abstract

Il est possible de bloquer l'inclinaison du dossier du siège par le dispositif de blocage au moyen d'une liaison par friction à lamelles. Le dispositif de blocage est placé en tant qu'unité modulaire de manière mobile axialement grâce à des disques de liaison par friction (13a) dans des paliers d'appui (10a) de l'assise. Un excentrique (17) autoblocant appuyé par son axe de pivotement (16) sur le boulon de tension (14) et avec une montée extrêmement faible de sa courbe d'excentrique s'engage frontalement avec l'ensemble de disques de liaison par friction (13). Ainsi, d'une part la résistance de manipulation de l'excentrique est très faible grâce à la faible montée de sa courbe d'excentrique et d'autre part, grâce à un raccourcissement - dû au système - du parcours de pivotement de l'excentrique (17), le parcours est encore suffisamment court.
