Definitions

  • the invention relates to a piece of seating or reclining furniture with a backrest with a seat part that is articulated to the backrest via swivel joints, and with a pair of front legs and rear legs, which are each arranged on the outside on the long sides of the seat part and are connected to one another via a swivel joint.
  • Such seating or reclining furniture is known from DE-PS 26 02 638.
  • the generic reclining furniture has a handlebar to achieve the goal of a more practical, more manageable design, and a rotatably mounted support arm of a liftable lying surface section, which are provided with arch slots which are penetrated by a brake shoe support pin. This should make it possible not to effect the adjustment of the liftable section by means of an energy store, but rather to accommodate the adjustment means in a side fitting.
  • a guide is arranged on the mutually facing inner sides of the rear legs, in each of which a sliding pin engages, which are each arranged on the seat part below the swivel joint between the seat part and the backrest.
  • the guides as slots, which preferably have an upper and a lower end section, which are connected by an elongated central section, it is achieved that a particularly stable arrangement can be achieved when the sliding pins of the seat part are latched into the upper, essentially horizontal end sections , which safely prevents unwanted folding when using the seating or reclining furniture.
  • an additional inclination adjustment device for the seat part primarily achieves the advantage that additional adaptations to achieve different sitting or lying positions are achieved both when used as seating or as reclining furniture.
  • Fig. 1 an embodiment of a piece of furniture is shown, which in the example is designed as reclining furniture 1.
  • This type of furniture is also referred to as a folding lounger, the features of the present invention described in detail below also being able to be used in the case of pure seating furniture, in which case only the footrest parts usually additionally present in the case of pure folding loungers are not present.
  • the bed furniture 1 has a backrest 2, a seat part 3, and a pair of front legs 4 and a pair of rear legs 5.
  • the side view in FIG. 1 shows only one of the pairs of legs.
  • the reclining furniture 2 has a footrest part 6 which is articulated to the seat part 3 via a joint 7 and which has an articulated footrest 8 in its end region, which usually consists of two pivotably arranged support legs.
  • the backrest 2 is pivotally articulated on the seat part 3 via two swivel joints, only one of the swivel joints 9, which usually consist of a pin, of the recesses, being shown in FIG. 1 engages in a fork-like end region of the seat part and a recess in one tab of the backrest, which is inserted into the fork-like end region.
  • each front leg 4 is pivotally connected to the corresponding rear leg 5 via a swivel joint 10, the swivel joint 10 being arranged in the region of upper end sections 11 and 12 of the front and rear legs 4 and 5, respectively.
  • the reclining furniture 1 also has a pair of armrests 14, of which only one armrest is visible due to the selected side view.
  • Each of these armrests 14 is articulated via a further swivel joint 14 a on the longitudinal outside of the backrest 2 and is supported in the position of use shown in FIG. 1 on the upper end sections 11 and 12 of the front legs 4 and rear legs 5.
  • the armrests 14 can be designed as hollow profiles open at the bottom, which can be provided with a plurality of catches on the underside of the bearing surface of the armrests 14, which in turn cooperate with a pin on the top of the end sections 11 and 12, so that a gradual inclination adjustment the backrest 2 is possible.
  • the rear legs 5 each have a guide in the form of a slide slot 15, the slide slots 15 being arranged on the mutually facing inner sides 16 of the rear legs 5.
  • the guides or sliding slots 15 are located in an area on the inner sides 16 of the rear legs 5, which begins approximately in the middle section and extends into the lower third of the rear legs 5, at which the rear legs 5 merge into feet 17.
  • the two guide slots 15, of which only one slot can also be seen due to the side view selected in FIG. 1, are of identical design, so that in the following description only reference is made to the sliding slot visible in FIG. 1.
  • the sliding slot 15 is trough-shaped and can be formed by webs which project inwards from the inside 16 and are integrally connected to the rear leg 5.
  • an upper end section 18 is formed, which is arranged approximately horizontally, but preferably inclined slightly downward, and extends into the region of a front edge 19 of the rear leg 5.
  • This upper end section 18 is adjoined by an elongated straight middle section 20 which runs parallel to the longitudinal axis of the rear leg 5 or parallel to its rear edge 21 in its immediate vicinity.
  • This middle section 20 is in turn connected to a lower end section 22, which, as shown in FIG. 1, is arranged with the furniture 1 lying on it essentially at a right angle to the contact surface 23 facing downward.
  • the lower end section 22 ends in the region of the front edge 19 of the rear leg 5.
  • the length of the sliding slot 15 in the straight direction between the end section 18 and the end section 22 is approximately one third of the total length of the rear leg 5.
  • the length of the sliding slot 15 can, however, be adapted to the geometry and dimensions of the respective seating or reclining furniture and is chosen so that on the one hand a stable use position and on the other hand a very space-saving storage position can be reached, in which in particular the backrest 2 is tight on the Seat part 3 rests, which is achieved in particular by the lower end section 22 and its arrangement and length.
  • the seat part 3 also has two outward-pointing sliding pins 24, which are arranged below the swivel joint 9, of which only one sliding pin 24 is shown in FIG. 1.
  • the sliding pins 24 engage in the guides 15, the sliding pins 24 being located in the upper end section 18 of the guide or of the sliding carriage 15 in the position of the reclining furniture 1 shown in FIG. 1.
  • a force is applied to a person sitting on the furniture, which pushes the sliding pin 24 into the end region 19 adjacent to the front edge 19 End section 18 presses, so that an undesired slipping out and thus an undesired folding of the reclining furniture 1 is prevented.
  • the rear end region of the seat part 3 is raised slightly and the rear leg 5 is pressed onto the front leg 3, so that the sliding pin 24 is released from engagement with the end section 18 and can be transferred into the middle section 20.
  • the sliding pin 24 moves into the lower end section 22 and lies against its end region in the vicinity of the front edge 19. This enables an almost completely parallel alignment of the legs 4 and 5 in the folded state, which leads to the fact that the seat part 3 and the backrest 2 folded forward on this come to lie closely together.
  • This arrangement initially results in the advantages of improved guidance during folding and unfolding as well as a particularly space-saving storage position of the reclining furniture 1.
  • the seat part 3 of the reclining furniture 1 also has an inclination adjustment device 25, which will be described in more detail below with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2.
  • the inclination adjustment device 25 has a plate-shaped rounded extension 27 on each longitudinal lower edge 26 of the seat part 3.
  • the extension 27 extends downward from the longitudinal lower edge 26 and can be formed in one piece with the longitudinal side strips 28 of the seat part 3.
  • Each attachment 27 has a guide slot 29 which has the kidney-like shape shown in detail in FIG. 1. Accordingly, the guide slot 29 has two end sections 30 and 31 which point obliquely upwards to the front and which are closed at their front ends and connected to one another at their rear ends via a substantially semicircular connecting section 32.
  • the illustration in FIG. 1 makes it clear that the end section 31 is somewhat longer than the end section 30. This configuration also forms a tongue 33 pointing towards the connecting section 32, which is also visible in FIG. 2.
  • a movable and lockable sliding part is arranged in the guide slots 29, which in the example is designed as a rod 34 which connects the front legs 4 and is each attached to them.
  • the rod 34 which is hollow, has a threaded bush 35 in its end regions into which a screw 36 is screwed through a recess 37 in an outer wall of the respective front leg 4.
  • the rod 34 is firmly connected at its ends to the respective front leg 4 and extends from the outer wall 38 through an extension 40 of an inner wall 41 provided with a recess 39.
  • the rod 34 lies in the upper end section 31 of the guide slot 29 and is pressed against the closed end region of the end section 31 of the guide slot 29 by the weight of a user sitting or lying on the couch unit 1 that the corresponding position is secured. If the seat part 3 is to be inclined slightly upwards, the guide rod 34 is transferred from the end section 31 into the lower end section 30 by swiveling the front leg 4 in the direction of the rear leg 5, into which the guide rod 34 extends in a manner similar to that in the upper end section 31 supports; the seat part 3 then assumes a slightly inclined position. In the folded state of the reclining furniture 1, the rod 34 lies approximately in the transition region between the connecting section 32 and the upper end section 31 of the guide slot 29.
  • sliding parts which are not designed as a continuous rod but as shorter pins and therefore do not connect the two front legs 4 to one another.
  • the point of attachment of the sliding parts or the rod 34 is offset somewhat upwards from the center of the front legs 4.
  • the approach 27 and thus the guide slot 29 is arranged in the front third of the seat part 3, which in the example is followed by an extension part 42 which, due to the design of the furniture shown, is provided as reclining furniture.
  • an extension part 42 is provided Usually not provided, so that the extension 27 or the guide slot 29 is located in the region of the front end or transverse edge of the seat part 3.
