Definitions

  • the invention relates to a pull-in bar for shaping the profile of upholstery materials covered on the outside by a cover fabric in upholstered furniture and the like.
  • Upholstered seat parts consisting of an integrally extruded, separately manufactured sewing tab for its connection to the upholstery-carrying plastic profile bar.
  • Such pull-in rods are used in upholstered furniture, but also in other upholstered seat parts, such as, in particular, car seats, to bring the upholstery material attached to a suitable base into the desired shape appropriate for the seat.
  • the cover fabric is sewn onto the sew-on tab of the profile rod, and the feed rod thus prepared is then drawn into the cushion material and fixed essentially transversely to the outer surface of the cover material made of the cushioning material, whereby a seam-like so-called blind filing with corresponding profile bulges on both sides of the blind filing is produced becomes.
  • the profile bar has a solid round profile
  • the sew-on flag is placed in the form of a double-layered material strip around the round profile bar and all around with it and between their two layers of material glued to themselves.
  • the all-round gluing of the sewing flag to the round profile rod does not withstand the stresses that arise when using the upholstered furniture or seat parts, so that the sewing flag detaches from the profile rod and this in the direction of its longitudinal axis when the repeated use of the Seat parts move until it finally emerges from the side of the upholstery material.
  • a further disadvantage has been found that when the sewing flag is sewn onto the cover fabric in the processing plant, the needle of the sewing device is contaminated by the adhesive between the two layers of the sewing flag, so that malfunctions occur.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a feed rod of the type specified, which has a permanently firm connection of the sewing flag with the profile rod, prevents malfunctions due to adhesive contaminated sewing needles in the processing plant and is easy to process with comparatively low material consumption.
  • the profile rod has a two-legged cross-sectional profile
  • the two profile legs are connected to one another at their base by a narrow connecting web and delimit a receiving gap for the sewing flag which emanates therefrom, in which the latter adjoins the adjacent inner surfaces of the two Profile leg is firmly welded.
  • the two-legged design of the profile bar with the sewing flag receiving gap avoids all-round gluing of a double-layered sewing flag to the profile bar, with a correspondingly reduced material expenditure for the sewing flag, and the need for a two-layer design of the sewing flag is also eliminated, so that it is preferably used in a material-saving manner by one single-layer material strips can be formed, although in principle, if desired, a two-layer material strip can also be used.
  • the narrow, preferably rounded outside, connecting web of the two profile legs is located according to one embodiment in the processing of the pull-in rod on the front side of the profile rod in the pulling direction and gives this in this area a retractable profile that facilitates its processing. It is provided in a further embodiment of the invention that the cross-sectional profile of the profile rod has an oval basic shape, the longitudinal center line of which runs parallel to the inner surfaces of the two profile legs.
  • This profile shape not only offers special advantages in terms of processing technology, since the side of the profile rod leading in during the pulling-in process has a high flexural strength in the direction of the longitudinal center line of the oval, but on the other hand has flexibility in the direction transverse to the longitudinal center line of the oval to the extent that it is deformed accordingly of the profile bar, an arcuate course of the blind filing to be produced can be specified, but at the same time there are enlarged welding surfaces for the sewing tab due to the example compared to a round profile correspondingly extended profile leg. Similar advantages are obtained if the oval basic shape of the cross-sectional profile is replaced by the basic shape of a flat box profile.
  • one of the two profile legs can be provided at both ends with integrally molded lateral support strips which are thickened towards a central ridge area on their outer side facing away from the receiving gap.
  • the thickened ridge area is preferably arranged opposite the exit of the sewing tab from the receiving gap.
  • the side support strips form in the practical application of the pull-in rod a support on the underside by contacting a corresponding pad material surface for fixing the upholstered seat part, for example a car seat, which is drawn in via the sewing flag.
  • the inner surface of the two profile legs are preferably provided with integrally molded welding ribs, which, viewed in the cross-sectional profile of the profile rod, extend into the receiving gap transversely to the longitudinal extent of the receiving gap and preferably in Recording gap are arranged offset from each other on the gap.
  • the sew-on flag consists of fleece, mesh fabric or the like.
  • Textile material on the basis of a plastic that can be easily welded to the profile rod.
  • the material for the profile rod as well as for the sewing flag can be formed from a polypropylene or the like. Thermoplastic.
  • other materials, in particular porous or perforated materials can also be used for the sewing flag, which, under the heat of welding used, allow material to be welded between the inner surfaces of the profile legs, which are opposite one another in the receiving gap, with the penetrating border of the sewing flag.
  • Fig. 1 the end region of an integrally extruded profile body 1 made of, for example, polypropylene is shown.
  • the profile bar 1 has a two-legged cross-sectional profile of an oval basic shape, the longitudinal center line 2 of the oval running parallel to the mutually facing flat inner surfaces 3 of the two profile legs 4 of the profile bar 1.
  • the two corresponding to the large radius of the oval cross-sectional profile, are connected to each other on the outside in a curved manner by a connecting web 5, which in turn is rounded on the outside in accordance with the small radius of the oval cross-sectional profile.
  • the two profile limbs 4 delimit a receiving gap 7, which opens out at their free ends 6, for a sewing flag 8 (FIG. 2).
  • the receiving gap 7 has essentially the cross-sectional shape of a narrow rectangle, the long sides of which run parallel to the longitudinal center line 2, in accordance with the flat design of the inner surface 3 of the profile legs 4. Viewed in the cross-sectional profile of the profile bar 1, extend transversely to the longitudinal extent of the receiving gap 7 into these weld-on ribs 9, which are integrally formed on the profile legs 4, protruding from their inner surface 3. As shown in FIG. 1, the welded-on ribs 9 of the two profile legs 4 are arranged offset from one another in the receiving gap 7.
  • the sewing flag 8 is formed by a single-layer material strip which has the same length as the profile bar 1, in the direction of its extrusion.
  • the sew-on flag 8 consists of a fleece, lattice fabric or the like. Textile material that can be easily welded to the profile body 1, and is inserted in the receiving gap 7 to fill it. Under the required welding heat, which is supplied to the profile bar 1 in a suitable manner, there is a firm welded connection between the sewing flag 8 and the inner surfaces 3 of the profile legs 4, including the welding ribs 9.
  • the area 10 of the sewing flag 8 projecting laterally from the receiving gap 7 is actual sewing area, with which the pull-in bar formed in this way by the profiled bar 1 and the sewing-on flag 8, designated as a whole by 11, is sewn onto the respective cover material 12 (FIG. 3).
  • Upholstered seat part can be seen in particular from the illustration of an upholstered armchair 13 according to FIG. 3.
  • the area 10 of the sewing-on flag 8 is sewn on by a seam 14 on the inside of the cover fabric 12, which is folded onto itself in some areas, and is drawn inward in the direction facing away from the top or outside thereof into the cushioning material 16 covered by the cover fabric and not shown in any more detail Way set.
  • a seamless blind filing 17 is formed with profile curvatures adjoining these on both sides in the backrest 15 of the chair 13.
  • the rounded free ends 6 of the profile legs 4 prevent damage to the sewing tab in the area of its lateral exit from the receiving gap 7.
  • FIG. 4 illustrates the formation of such a seamless blind filing 17 in the foam or the like.
  • the feed rod 11 'for pulling in the blind seam 17 forming part of the loading Wegstoffes 12 over the sewing flag 8 in the cushion material 16 has a configuration in which the profile leg 4 'is provided at both ends with integrally molded side support strips 18 and 19, the connecting web 5 in the region of the profile leg 4' the transition between this and the side Support bar 19 forms.
  • the thickened ridge area 20 lies opposite the exit of the sewing flag 8 from the receiving gap 7.
  • the profile bar 1 ' As shown in FIG. 4, with its side support strips 18, 19 on the underside of the cushioning material 16, the profile leg 4 being pressed into the cushioning material 16 accordingly, and causing a secure anchor Fixation for the strip-shaped area of the upper cover material 12 of the seat part drawn in via the sewing flag 8 and forming the blind seam 17.
