Description

L'invention concerne une chaise avec siège et dossier à inclinaison variable synchronisée.The invention relates to a chair with synchronized variable tilt seat and backrest.

On connait déjà quelques réalisations de chaises ou fauteuils de bureau dont le siège et le dossier sont à inclinaison variable synchronisée, c'est à dire suceptibles de déplacements angulaires interdépendants autour des axes horizontales de ro­tation correspondantes. En pratique, le siège peut s'incliner graduellement sur et par rapport à un corps de support fixe soutenu par un base, et le dossier varie automatiquement son inclinaison sui­vant le déplacement du siège et vice versa. La syn­chronisation des déplacements est obtenue au moyen d'une articulation des supports du siège et du dos­sier et à l'aide d'éléments élastiques de contraste.We already know some realizations of office chairs or armchairs whose seat and back are of synchronized variable inclination, that is to say susceptible of interdependent angular displacements around the corresponding horizontal axes of rotation. In practice, the seat can gradually tilt over and in relation to a fixed support body supported by a base, and the backrest automatically varies its inclination according to the movement of the seat and vice versa. The synchronization of the movements is obtained by means of an articulation of the seat and back supports and using elastic contrast elements.

Ceci dit, c'est le but de la présente inven­tion de proposer une chaise ou un fauteuil du type susmentionné qui comprend des moyens d'articulation entre les supports du siège et du dossier particu­lièrement simples et efficients, ces supports, bien qu'ils soient séparés, étant placés l'un en conti­nuation à l'autre sans solution de continuité, cette condition se conservant en toute position d'incli­naison du siège et du dossier.That said, it is the object of the present invention to provide a chair or armchair of the aforementioned type which comprises articulation means between the seat and back supports, particularly simple and efficient, these supports, although they are separated, being placed one in continuation to the other without a solution of continuity, this condition being preserved in any position of inclination of the seat and the backrest.

Partant, l'invention concerne une chaise ou un fauteuil avec siège et dossier à inclinaison varia­ble conforme à la revendication 1.Therefore, the invention relates to a chair or armchair with seat and backrest with variable inclination according to claim 1.

Des autres détails de l'objet d'invention sont spécifiés dans la description suivante avec référen­ce au dessin indicatif et ne pas limitatif ci-joint, où:

  • la Fig. 1 montre une vue latérale schématique d'une chaise ou fauteuil selon l'invention avec siège et dossier dans une première posi­tion;
  • la Fig. 2 montre une vue similaire à celle en Fig. 1, mais avec siège et dossier dans une autre position; et
  • la Fig. 3 montre une vue d'en haut des supports du siège et du dossier.
Other details of the object of invention are specified in the following description with reference to the indicative drawing and not limiting attached, where:
  • Fig. 1 shows a schematic side view of a chair or armchair according to the invention with seat and back in a first position;
  • Fig. 2 shows a view similar to that in FIG. 1, but with seat and back in another position; and
  • Fig. 3 shows a top view of the seat and back supports.

La chaise ou le fauteuil conforme à l'inven­tion comprend une base - ne pas représentée - qui porte un dispositif ou montant (10) fixe ou préfé­rablement réglable en hauteur, un corps (11) fixé au sommet du dispositif ou montant (10), un support (12) pour le siège (13) et un support (14) pour le dossier (15). Le support du siège et aussi ce du dossier sont tous les deux articulés au corps fixe (11 et reliés entre eux par un connecteur de syn­chronisation (16) articulé lui aussi au corps fixe susmentionné.The chair or armchair according to the invention comprises a base - not shown - which carries a fixed device or upright (10) or preferably adjustable in height, a body (11) fixed to the top of the device or upright (10), a support (12) for the seat (13) and a support (14) for the backrest (15). The seat support and also that of the backrest are both articulated to the fixed body (11 and connected together by a synchronization connector (16) also articulated to the above-mentioned fixed body.

Les supports du siège et du dossier peuvent ainsi définir une surface d'appui substantiellement sans solution de continuité.The seat and back supports can thus define a support surface that is substantially free of continuity.

Plus précisément, le support (12) du siège est articulé, dans sa partie intermédiaire, au corps fixe (11) au moyen d'un élément élastique ou oscil­lant (17), tandis que la partie arrière du support (12) est fixée à une bride (18) pivotant ou oscil­lant sur le connecteur (16) au moyen d'une goupille (19). Le connecteur (16) est monté au moyen d'un pivot d'oscillation (20) sur le support fixe (11) dans une position déplacée en avant par rapport à la goupille (19) de la bride (18) qui porte le support du siège, et précisément dans une position intermé­ diaire entre la goupille (19) et l'élément élastique ou oscillant (17) qui soutient le support (12) du siège.More specifically, the support (12) of the seat is articulated, in its intermediate part, to the fixed body (11) by means of an elastic or oscillating element (17), while the rear part of the support (12) is fixed to a flange (18) pivoting or oscillating on the connector (16) by means of a pin (19). The connector (16) is mounted by means of an oscillation pivot (20) on the fixed support (11) in a position moved forward relative to the pin (19) of the flange (18) which carries the support of the seat, and precisely in an intermediate position diaire between the pin (19) and the elastic or oscillating element (17) which supports the support (12) of the seat.

D'autre part, le support (14) du dossier est monté sur le corps fixe (11) au moyen d'un pivot (21) placé dans une position comprise entre le pivot d'oscillation (20) du connecteur (16) et la goupille (19) de la bride (18). En outre, le support (14) du dossier est muni de tenons latéraux (22) pour son assemblage au connecteur (16) à quelque distance des pivots (19, 20 et 21), ces tenons engageant une fente (23) coupée dans le connecteur (16).On the other hand, the support (14) of the backrest is mounted on the fixed body (11) by means of a pivot (21) placed in a position between the oscillation pivot (20) of the connector (16) and the pin (19) of the flange (18). In addition, the support (14) of the backrest is provided with lateral pins (22) for its assembly to the connector (16) at some distance from the pivots (19, 20 and 21), these pins engaging a slot (23) cut in the connector (16).

Enfin, au support (14) du dossier est pivoté en (24), c'est à dire en position excentrique par rapport au pivot (21) du support lui même, l'extré­mité d'un ressort à gaz (25) dont l'extrémité oppo­sée est reliée, en (26), à la partie avant du sup­port fixe (11), tandis que sur le pivot (21), par exemple, du support (14) du dossier on pourra monter un ressort à torsion ou autre moyen élastique - ne pas représenté - pour contribuer à reporter à la position initiale toutes les composantes après leur déplacement.Finally, at the support (14) of the backrest is pivoted at (24), that is to say in an eccentric position relative to the pivot (21) of the support itself, the end of a gas spring (25) whose l opposite end is connected, at (26), to the front part of the fixed support (11), while on the pivot (21), for example, of the support (14) of the backrest, it is possible to mount a torsion spring or the like elastic means - not shown - to help bring all the components back to the initial position after their displacement.

Comme il résulte des Figures 1 et 2 du dessin, les pivots (19, 20, 22) qui articulent le connecteur de synchronisation (16) respectivement au support (12) du siège, au corps fixe (11) et au support (14) du dossier, sont situés aux sommets d'un triangle, le pivot (20) étant fixe, tandis que les autres deux (19, 22) sont mobiles. Le pivot (21) pour l'articu­lation du support (14) du dossier au corps fixe (11) est placé au dedans du triangle (19, 20, 22), tandis que le ressort à gaz de contraste (25) est relié en (24) au support du dossier au dehors de ce triangle.As results from Figures 1 and 2 of the drawing, the pivots (19, 20, 22) which articulate the connector synchronization (16) respectively to the support (12) of the seat, to the fixed body (11) and to the support (14) of the backrest, are located at the vertices of a triangle, the pivot (20) being fixed, while the others two (19, 22) are mobile. The pivot (21) for the articulation of the support (14) of the backrest to the fixed body (11) is placed inside the triangle (19, 20, 22), while the contrast gas spring (25) is connected in (24) to support the file outside this triangle.

En vertu de l'arrangement ci-dessus chaque oscillation ou rotation du support (12) du siège sur son élément de support élastique ou oscillant (17) se transmet automatiquement au support (14) du dos­sier à travers le conneucteur (16) pour une varia­tion corrélative de l'inclinaison des deux éléments siège-dossier. La même chose se vérifie évidemment à la suite d'une poussée appliquée au dossier et le déplaçant angulairement autour du pivot (21) de son support (14). En tout cas, les déplacements sont synchronisés et contrastés par le ressort à gaz (25) et par les moyens à ressorts supplémentaires - ne pas représentés - qui tendent à récupérer la posi­tion initiale des composantes après que l'action qui n'a provoqué la variation de l'inclinaison est ces­sée.By virtue of the above arrangement, each oscillation or rotation of the support (12) of the seat on its elastic or oscillating support element (17) is automatically transmitted to the support (14) of the backrest through the connector (16) for a correlative variation of the inclination of the two seat-backrest elements. The same thing is obviously verified following a push applied to the backrest and angularly moving it around the pivot (21) of its support (14). In any case, the displacements are synchronized and contrasted by the gas spring (25) and by the additional spring means - not shown - which tend to recover the initial position of the components after the action which has not caused the variation of the inclination is stopped.
