Description

Les chaises, fauteuils ou banquettes en matière plastique, qu'ils soient monoblocs ou réglables, sont tous identiques les uns aux autres et ne peuvent être différenciés que par des coussins.The plastic chairs, armchairs or benches, whether they are one-piece or adjustable, are all identical to each other and can only be distinguished by cushions.

Ce mode de personnalisation présente l'inconvénient d'être relativement coûteux pour un produit de grande diffusion.This mode of personalization has the disadvantage of being relatively expensive for a mass market product.

En outre, le coussin ne faisant pas corps avec le meuble, il est difficile de constituer de façon automatique à la fabrication des ensembles conservant leur tenue.In addition, the cushion not being integral with the piece of furniture, it is difficult to constitute automatically in the manufacture of the assemblies retaining their hold.

Par ailleurs, les coussins étant sensibles aux conditions climatiques, il est déconseillé de les laisser dehors par tous les temps comme c'est le cas pour le mobilier en matière plastique.In addition, the cushions being sensitive to climatic conditions, it is not recommended to leave them outside in all weathers as is the case for plastic furniture.

Pour remédier à ces inconvénients, certains meubles comportent une carcasse et un insert de dossier et/ou d'assise reliés l'un à l'autre par des moyens d'assemblage quasi définitifs. L'insert est sélectionnable dans une gamme étendue de modèles différant les uns des autres par la forme, la finition, la couleur ou autres. Il est avantageusement moulé en matière plastique, mais il peut être également en bois, métal ou autres matériaux.To overcome these drawbacks, some pieces of furniture include a carcass and a folder and / or seat insert connected to each other by almost definitive assembly means. The insert is selectable in a wide range of models differing from each other in shape, finish, color or others. It is advantageously molded in plastic, but it can also be made of wood, metal or other materials.

Dans une réalisation connue, l'insert est fixé au moyen de tétons en matière plastique rivés à chaud dans la carcasse. Il ne peut donc pas être facilement et rapidement remplacé par un autre.In a known embodiment, the insert is fixed by means of plastic pins hot riveted in the carcass. It cannot therefore be easily and quickly replaced by another.

La présente invention a donc pour but de rendre le montage et le démontage de l'insert très faciles par l'utilisateur lui-même sans l'aide d'un outil spécifique.The present invention therefore aims to make the assembly and disassembly of the insert very easy by the user himself without using a specific tool.

L'insert est alors interchangeable, ce qui permet de conférer plus d'attrait au produit et de personnaliser en le diversifiant le choix du client. Il peut en effet acquérir pour chaque meuble plusieurs inserts différents, ce qui lui permettra par simple changement des inserts de transformer son mobilier de jardin.The insert is then interchangeable, which makes it possible to confer more attractiveness to the product and to personalize by diversifying the choice of the customer. He can indeed acquire for each piece of furniture several different inserts, which will allow him by simple change of the inserts to transform his garden furniture.

Dans ce but et conformément à l'invention, l'insert est flexible et comporte le long deux bords opposés des moyens d'emboîtement dans une direction sensiblement perpendiculaire, opposés l'un à l'autre et destinés à coopérer avec des moyens conjugués venus de moulage avec la carcasse, la pose de l'insert consistant à enclencher son premier moyen d'emboîtement dans celui conjugué de la carcasse, à cambrer l'insert pour présenter son deuxième moyen d'emboîtement en regard de celui conjugué de ladite carcasse et à libérer l'insert pour que par rappel élastique lesdits deuxièmes moyens d'emboîtement s'enclenchent à leur tour.For this purpose and in accordance with the invention, the insert is flexible and comprises along two opposite edges interlocking means in a substantially perpendicular direction, opposite to each other and intended to cooperate with conjugated means coming molding with the carcass, the fitting of the insert consisting of engaging its first means of fitting into that conjugate of the carcass, arching the insert to present its second fitting means opposite that conjugate of said carcass and releasing the insert so that by elastic return said second fitting means engage in turn.

Avantageusement, l'insert comporte, sur chacun de ses deux autres côtés, au moins un organe de verrouillage élastique ou clip, dirigé vers l'arrière et coopérant avec un organe conjugué de la carcasse.Advantageously, the insert comprises, on each of its two other sides, at least one elastic locking member or clip, directed towards the rear and cooperating with a conjugated member of the carcass.

Suivant une forme de réalisation particulière, la carcasse présente en bordure de deux côtés opposés de l'ouverture des réglettes méplates situées en retrait de la surface extérieure de ladite carcasse et délimitant ainsi une feuillure, tandis que l'insert forme en correspondance des profilés en U destinés à s'emboîter sur lesdites réglettes.According to a particular embodiment, the carcass has on the edge of two opposite sides of the opening of the flat strips located set back from the outer surface of said carcass and thus delimiting a rebate, while the insert forms in correspondence of the profiles in U intended to fit onto said strips.

La carcasse délimite une ouverture dont deux côtés opposés sont bordés par les moyens conjugués d'emboîtement précités, ainsi que par des feuillures s'étendant le long des deux autres côtés pour que l'insert affleure la carcasse lorsqu'il est en place.The carcass delimits an opening, two opposite sides of which are bordered by the above-mentioned combined interlocking means, as well as by rebates extending along the two other sides so that the insert is flush with the carcass when it is in place.

Divers autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention ressortent d'ailleurs de la description détaillée qui suit.Various other characteristics and advantages of the invention will also emerge from the detailed description which follows.

Une forme de réalisation de l'objet de l'invention est représentée, à titre d'exemple non limitatif, sur le dessin annexé.An embodiment of the object of the invention is shown, by way of nonlimiting example, in the accompanying drawing.

On this drawing :
  • FIGS. 1 to 3 are partial views with cutaway, illustrating the essential phases of mounting an insert according to the invention in a seat backrest of an armchair,
  • FIG. 4 is a vertical section taken along line IV-IV of FIG. 3,
  • FIG. 5 is a horizontal section taken along the line VV of FIG. 3,
  • Figures 6 and 7 are views similar to Figure 5 highlighting the preliminary phases of mounting the clips of the insert.
  • Figure 8 is a view similar to Figure 3 showing inserts placed in the backrest and seat.

Le dessin illustre un fauteuil monobloc dont la carcasse 1 est une pièce d'un seul tenant moulée en matière plastique. Elle présente un dossier 2 et une assise 3 supportée par des pieds 4, un bandeau 5 du dossier se prolongeant sur les côtés pour former des accoudoirs 6 faisant corps avec l'assise et les pieds antérieurs.The drawing illustrates a monobloc armchair, the carcass 1 of which is a single piece molded from plastic. It has a backrest 2 and a seat 3 supported by feet 4, a strip 5 of the backrest extending on the sides to form armrests 6 integral with the seat and the front feet.

Le dossier 2 est un cadre appartenant à la carcasse et délimitant une ouverture centrale 7. Il est destiné à recevoir un insert décoratif 8 comblant celle-ci. Dans l'exemple représenté, l'insert 8 est constitué par de la matière plastique moulée ayant en relief ou en creux des motifs décoratifs tels que ceux d'un cannage, d'un quadrillage, d'un ensemble floral ou animalier etc...; la couleur de l'insert peut être la même que celle du fauteuil ou bien elle peut être différente et les motifs décoratifs peuvent être colorés différemment du support, par sérigraphie ou dans la masse.The back 2 is a frame belonging to the carcass and delimiting a central opening 7. It is intended to receive a decorative insert 8 filling the latter. In the example shown, the insert 8 is constituted by molded plastic material having in relief or in hollow decorative patterns such as those of a cane, a grid, a floral or animal set, etc. . the color of the insert can be the same as that of the armchair or it can be different and the decorative patterns can be colored differently from the support, by serigraphy or in the mass.

Le cadre du dossier 2 présente en saillie, le long du bord supérieur de son ouverture 7, une réglette 9 susceptible de coopérer par emboîtement de bas en haut avec un profilé en U conjugué 10 venu de moulage avec l'insert 8 et faisant saillie vers l'arrière. De la même manière, le cadre du dossier 2 présente en saillie, le long du bord inférieur de son ouverture 7 une réglette 11 susceptible de coopérer par emboîtement mais de haut en bas avec un profilé en U conjugué 12 venu de moulage avec l'insert 8 et faisant saillie vers l'arrière.The frame of the backrest 2 has projecting, along the upper edge of its opening 7, a strip 9 capable of cooperating by interlocking from bottom to top with a conjugate U-shaped profile 10 molded with the insert 8 and projecting towards the back. In the same way, the frame of the backrest 2 has projecting, along the lower edge of its opening 7 a strip 11 capable of cooperating by interlocking but from top to bottom with a conjugate U-shaped profile 12 molded with the insert 8 and projecting rearward.

Par ailleurs, des organes de verrouillage ou clips sont prévus sur les côtés de l'insert 8. Dans l'exemple représenté, deux pattes 13 et 14 également venues de moulage avec l'insert font saillie vers l'arrière sensiblement à mi-hauteur de ses côtés. Les pattes sont prolongées par des dents 15 et 16 opposées l'une à l'autre et sont destinées à être engagées de l'avant vers l'arrière dans des lumières 17 et 18 du cadre de dossier 2.Furthermore, locking members or clips are provided on the sides of the insert 8. In the example shown, two tabs 13 and 14 also coming from molding with the insert protrude rearwards substantially at mid-height. on his side. The legs are extended by teeth 15 and 16 opposite one another and are intended to be engaged from front to rear in slots 17 and 18 of the backrest frame 2.

Dans cet exemple, le cadre de dossier 2 comporte des saillies latérales 19 et 20 dirigées vers l'arrière et profilées en U. Les ailes 21 et 22 de la saillie 19 délimitent la lumière 17 destinée à recevoir la patte 13 et cette lumière se prolonge vers l'arrière et à travers l'aile extérieure 22 pour former un cran 23 d'accrochage de la dent 15. L'aile intérieure 21 est moins haute que l'aile extérieure 22 et constitue une butée 24 pour l'insert 8 lorsque la dent 15 est en prise avec le cran 23. Cette dent présente une rampe inclinée 25 destinée à coopérer avec l'aile extérieure 22 pour provoquer la flexion élastique de la patte 13 lorsque l'insert est repoussé vers l'arrière. De la même façon, les ailes 26 et 27 de la saillie 20 délimitent la lumière 18 destinée à recevoir la patte 14 dont la dent 16 coopère alors avec un cran d'accrochage 28 lorsque l'insert 8 est mis en appui contre une butée 29 après déformation élastique de la patte 14 par réaction d'une rampe inclinée 30 de la dent avec l'aile extérieure 27 de la saillie 20.In this example, the backrest frame 2 has lateral projections 19 and 20 directed towards the rear and shaped in a U shape. The wings 21 and 22 of the projection 19 define the light 17 intended to receive the tab 13 and this light is extended backwards and through the outer wing 22 to form a notch 23 for hooking the tooth 15. The inner wing 21 is lower than the outer wing 22 and constitutes a stop 24 for the insert 8 when the tooth 15 is engaged with the notch 23. This tooth has an inclined ramp 25 intended to cooperate with the outer wing 22 to cause the elastic bending of the tab 13 when the insert is pushed back. In the same way, the wings 26 and 27 of the projection 20 delimit the lumen 18 intended to receive the lug 14, the tooth 16 of which then cooperates with a catch notch 28 when the insert 8 is pressed against a stop 29 after elastic deformation of the tab 14 by reaction of an inclined ramp 30 of the tooth with the outer wing 27 of the projection 20.

Les butées 24 et 29 sont en retrait de la surface antérieure du cadre de dossier 2 sensiblement de la même mesure que les réglettes 9 et 11 de façon que l'insert prenne place dans la feuillure 31 ainsi constituée et affleure la surface antérieure du cadre de dossier 2.The stops 24 and 29 are set back from the front surface of the backrest frame 2 substantially to the same extent as the strips 9 and 11 so that the insert takes place in the rebate 31 thus formed and is flush with the front surface of the backrest frame. file 2.

Pour monter l'insert 8 et ainsi que cela ressort de la figure 2, on emboîte son profilé 12 sur la réglette inférieure 11 du dossier, puis on le cambre vers l'avant jusqu'à présentation de son profilé 10 en regard de la réglette 9 et on le libère pour emboîter ledit profilé 10 sur ladite réglette 9, en même temps qu'on pousse vers l'arrière pour engager ses pattes 13 et 14 dans les lumières 17 et 18 du cadre de dossier 2 et encliqueter les dents 15 et 16 dans les crans 23 et 28. lorsque l'insert 8 est accroché, il est en appui sur les butées 24 et 29 et il affleure la surface extérieure du cadre de dossier 2.To mount the insert 8 and as shown in FIG. 2, its profile 12 is fitted onto the lower strip 11 of the backrest, then it is arched forward until its profile 10 is presented opposite the strip 9 and it is released to fit said profile 10 onto said strip 9, at the same time as one pushes backwards to engage its legs 13 and 14 in the slots 17 and 18 of the backrest frame 2 and snap the teeth 15 and 16 in the notches 23 and 28. when the insert 8 is hooked, it bears on the stops 24 and 29 and it is flush with the outside surface of the backrest frame 2.

Bien entendu, les moyens d'emboîtement peuvent être inversés et dans ce cas, l'insert 8 présente des réglettes et le cadre de dossier 2 délimite des rainures. De la même façon, les moyens de verrouillage peuvent aussi être inversés.Of course, the interlocking means can be reversed and in this case, the insert 8 has strips and the folder frame 2 defines grooves. Likewise, the locking means can also be reversed.

D'autre part, les moyens d'emboîtement peuvent être disposés le long des bords latéraux et les moyens de verrouillage le long des bords haut et bas.On the other hand, the interlocking means can be arranged along the side edges and the locking means along the top and bottom edges.

Dans l'exemple représenté, l'insert 8 est monté sur le dossier d'un fauteuil monobloc d'une façon simple et rapide ; il peut aussi aisément en être démonté.In the example shown, the insert 8 is mounted on the back of a monobloc chair in a simple and rapid manner; it can also easily be removed.

Un insert 32 schématisé en trait mixte sur la figure 8 peut également être monté dans un cadre de l'assise 3 conformé de façon semblable à celui du dossier 2.An insert 32 shown diagrammatically in phantom in FIG. 8 can also be mounted in a frame of the seat 3 shaped in a similar manner to that of the backrest 2.

Par ailleurs, l'insert de dossier 8 et/ou l'insert d'assise 32 peuvent être montés sur un fauteuil réglable.Furthermore, the backrest insert 8 and / or the seat insert 32 can be mounted on an adjustable chair.
