Definitions

  • the invention relates to a suspension frame for a piece of seating or reclining furniture, which is capable of carrying out vibrations, consisting of a support bracket connected to the sitting or lying area, which is connected to a base support on both sides of the sitting or lying area by means of a rope pendulum.
  • Such a suspension frame makes a dynamic seating or reclining furniture available, which guarantees an oscillating movement of the sitting or lying surface due to the slightest body movements.
  • the previously known furniture of this type has the disadvantage that its stability is not reliable and the sensitivity leaves little to be desired with small, barely noticeable body movements. It is also disadvantageous that a user has to procure separate furniture without utilizing the old seating or reclining furniture.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of making available a hanging rack of the type mentioned which, with perfect statics, has a significantly increased sensitivity to movements of the human body and makes it possible to convert existing seating or reclining furniture.
  • the invention is based on the knowledge that barely noticeable body movements or vibrations that only take place in the body itself must be transferred to the sitting or lying surface when the body appears to be at rest, if a biological one that promotes health Vibration system between the body and seating or reclining furniture is to be created.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of making available a hanging frame of the type mentioned which, with perfect statics, has a very high sensitivity to only slight movements of the human body under vibrational conditions in the apparently resting human body.
  • the invention consists in that at least two rope pendulums act on the support bracket on each side.
  • the support beam which is preferably adjustable with respect to the seat or lying surface or height, is suspended from an intermediate beam by means of a support beam rope pendulum and that the intermediate beams are spaced therefrom by means of two intermediate beams which are in turn spaced apart from one another.
  • Rope pendulum hangs on the floor support.
  • the invention proposes that the projections of the support beam pendulum and intermediate beam pendulum form a triangle in the plane of the seat or lying surface.
  • the two intermediate carrier rope pendulums are aligned in the longitudinal direction of the lying surface.
  • the two intermediate carrier rope pendulums are connected at their lower end to a connecting web, to which the intermediate carrier is in turn attached.
  • the base support consists of two vertically standing, trapezoid-shaped frames which are connected to one another by transverse struts which run transversely to the seat or lying surface and which preferably run in two opposite corner points of the trapezoidal frames.
  • the cable pendulums consist of steel cables, the intermediate carrier cable pendulums having a smaller diameter than the support carrier cable pendulums.
  • a base support which is preferably connected to a base frame for a piece of seating furniture, is connected on both sides of the seating or lying surface to a connecting support on which the rope pendulum (s) engage at one end while the other end of the Rope pendulum is connected to a support beam, optionally designed as a supporting frame or attached to a rocker, on which the seat or lying surface rests.
  • two or more cable pendulums connected in series with cascades and intermediate supports are arranged between the connecting support and the support support.
  • connection carrier is preferably connected at its ends to the upper end of two cable pendulums and that the base carrier extends upwards between the cable pendulums and is connected to the connection carrier.
  • the suspension frame according to the invention has a floor support 1, with which it is on the Ground rests.
  • This floor support 1 consists of two trapezoidal frames 2. These frames 2 are connected to one another by cross struts 3 and 4, which are fastened to the trapezoidal frames 2 at opposite corner points thereof.
  • the holding arms 12 are telescopically slidable in struts 14 which are perpendicular to the floor and thus at right angles to the support beam 13. With the help of a wing nut 15, the holding arm 12 can be fixed in the strut 14 in the desired position, as a result of which the height of the support beam 13 can be adjusted.
  • the support bracket 13 has at its ends telescopically displaceable end pieces 16 which carry mounting iron 17 and can be fixed on the support bracket 13 in the desired position on both sides by means of a wing screw 18, so that the frame can be adapted to the width of the slatted frame within a bed frame, not shown can.
  • the projections of the two intermediate beam rope pendulums 5, 6 and the support beam rope pendulum 11, in particular in cooperation with the trapezoidal frame 2, provide a stable suspension of the Support beam 3 and thus the vibrating lying surface guaranteed.
  • the intermediate girder rope pendulums 5 and 6 consist of wire ropes with a reduced diameter compared to the support girder rope pendulum 11, which increases the vibration sensitivity of the frame.
  • FIG. 2 an office chair is shown, whose dashed pad 21 rests on support beams 22a and 22b.
  • the support beams run from one side of the armchair shown under the seat to the opposite side and are connected to one another by cross beams 23, so that the support beams 22 and cross beams 23 form a support structure.
  • the support beams 22 are connected at their ends to the side of the cushion 21 with cable pendulums 24 which are suspended at the top of the ends of a connection beam 25.
  • connection supports 25 are connected to a base support 26 on both sides.
  • the base support 26 runs underneath the support supports 23 under the seat surface and is arched upward at 26a so that it engages around the seat surface and extends on both sides up to the connection support 25.
  • the base support 26 rests on the top of two laterally offset rockers 27 and is firmly connected to them.
  • the connection is strengthened by the base support 26 having two extensions 26a in the area of the rockers 27. For the rest, the base support 26 is broadband, as can be seen from FIG. 2.
  • a mounting block 28 is arranged between the two rockers 27, at the front end of which the rockers 27 are articulated via a bolt 29. At the opposite, rear end of the mounting block 28, this is with a Telescopic piston assembly connected. This rests on a five-armed foot 31. At the ends of the five arms, rollers 32 are provided in the usual way. With the aid of a locking lever 33, the pivoting movement of the rockers 27 can be fixed relative to the mounting block 28, and an adjusting lever 34 makes it possible to vent the pneumatic telescopic piston arrangement 30 in order to lower the seat relative to the foot 31.
  • the frame according to the invention makes an extremely sensitive suspension of the cushion 21 with respect to the foot 31 available via the rope pendulum 24, so that the smallest pressure changes in the body, even if the latter is apparently at rest, produce an imperceptible swinging, which is of considerable health benefit is.
  • the suspension according to the invention is characterized by a small space requirement, so that an armchair equipped with it does not deviate in size from conventional office armchairs, and conventional foot frames that have a rocking mechanism that can be locked and are provided with a lowerable telescopic piston arrangement be equipped according to the present invention.
