Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a removable and dismountable seat system intended to rest on a base, such as in particular, but not exclusively, a removable swimming bench intended to rest on the bottom of a boat, in particular an inflatable boat.
  • the object of the invention is essentially to propose such a removable and dismountable seat system which, while being simple in design, reliably rests on the base, preferably with the possibility of longitudinal adjustment, at the same time as it can be installed or dismantled quickly and easily, without specialized tools.
  • the housings consist respectively of elongate sections integral with the base and substantially parallel to each other.
  • the erect legs are inclined towards each other, thanks to which, under the action of a load applied to the seat, they form braced struts in the grooves.
  • the seat rests and is locked on said profiles by bracing of the legs in the grooves of these profiles under the action of the seat seat weight (self-weight and weight applied to the seat when it is occupied).
  • the assembly is kept in the correct situation by the sole means of securing the seat to the legs.
  • the mounting and dismounting of the seat is carried out, without loss of time, by the mere manipulation of said fastening means.
  • the seat is resolved into pieces (seat, legs) of elongated shapes which can be easily grouped and stored.
  • the axial locking means comprise, for each foot, at least one shoe sliding in the groove of the corresponding profile and releasably lockable therein. ; preferably then, the axial locking means comprise, for each foot, a single sliding shoe which can be locked in the groove of the corresponding profile and each lower bent projection of the legs is shaped like a fork capable of overlapping said shoe and being retained in the groove on either side of said shoe.
  • a removable and dismountable seat system finds a particularly advantageous application in the equipment of vehicles, such as boats, the bottom or floor of which is equipped with the above-mentioned housings or profiles. It may in particular be a boat of the inflatable type, advantageously of the type provided with a floor of juxtaposed parallel rigid blades, held together by two longitudinal sections receiving the ends of said floor blades, these profiles then being, in accordance with the invention, provided with respective longitudinal grooves open upwards for the reception of the lower ends of the legs of the seat.
  • the inflatable boat 1 is shown diagrammatically (in cross section) by its inflatable lateral tubes 2, a central tube 3 forming a keel on which a lower canvas 4 is stretched, and a boat bottom or floor 5 s' extending between the two tubes.
  • such a floor may consist of a set of rigid blades or slats (for example made of wood) 6 assembled parallel to each other so that the floor can be rolled up for transporting the deflated boat.
  • the blades 6 have their ends engaged respectively in two parallel rigid sections 7, for example of aluminum, in the shape of a coated U, extending laterally in the vicinity of the tubes, like this clearly appears in Figure 3.
  • These sections are secured, by any appropriate means (bonding, screwing, riveting, ...), to the backdrop 8 stretched between the tubes and / or to the tubes themselves.
  • each section 7 is further provided, in particular on its upper face, with a groove 9 opening upwards through a narrower opening than the bottom of the groove.
  • the seat essentially comprises feet 11 and a seat 12.
  • the seat 10 is in the general form of a flat or substantially planar rectangular panel or plate 12, which, moreover, can be arranged in any way.
  • On the underside of this plate 12 protrude two threaded rods 13 which can advantageously be formed, as shown in Figure 2, by two screws engaged in two through passages 14 drilled through the plate, in the vicinity of the ends thereof.
  • each end of the plate 12 can be provided several passages 14, 14 ', ..., having different mutual spacings so that the plate 12, constituting the seat 10, can be installed on feet 11 of different spacings (which can in this case correspond to boats of different widths).
  • Each foot 11 has the general shape of a very open S and essentially comprises an elongated leg 15 terminated at its two ends by projections respectively upper 16 and lower 17 bent in directions opposite to each other.
  • the upper angled projection 16 forms a support on which is able to rest the plate 12 and it has a bore 18 through which the threaded rod 13 of said plate passes.
  • a nut 19 with a large head is screwed onto the threaded rod 13 to ensure rapid assembly of the plate 12 and the foot 11.
  • the lower bent projection 17 which is turned away from the upper bent projection 16, is introduced into the groove 9 of the section 7 while maintaining the leg 15 approximately vertically as shown in FIG. 4A, then by lowering the foot in the inclined position as shown in Figure 4B to block the projection 17 in the bottom of the groove 9.
  • the legs 15 are then inclined on the vertical, towards one another.
  • feet may be four in number distributed in pairs substantially at the four corners of the seat 12, it is however more advantageous to reduce the number of component parts by providing only two feet designed in a wide form to give them stability, as shown in Figure 3.
  • These feet can for example be made by molding a rigid plastic or a metal (aluminum).
  • the lower bent projection 17 may include a central notch 22 which gives it a fork shape (see Figure 3) allowing it, when introduced into position in the groove 9 of the associated profile, to overlap a shoe 20 which is thus able to ensure, by itself, the blocking of the foot on the profile.
