Definitions

  • the invention relates to a room, a cabin and in particular a compartment for couchettes of passenger trains.
  • the passenger is offered both a seat and a couch.
  • the latter in order to give the passenger the opportunity to relax and rest or sleep during long and especially night trips.
  • a seat-couch furniture is arranged on each compartment wall running transversely to the carriage longitudinal direction.
  • Such seating and reclining furniture is designed in the manner of a bench. His seat part also serves as a first bed.
  • the back of the seat is pivotally attached to the compartment wall at its upper edge and can be pivoted from its rest position, in which it serves as a backrest, into a lying position, in which it is aligned horizontally and serves as a second bed.
  • a disadvantage of the known compartments or the seat-reclining furniture according to the prior art is first of all that the seat upholstery of the seat also serves as a lying surface.
  • the seats of benches or seats in public transport are exposed to increased pollution. Some passengers will therefore be reluctant to lie down on such a seat due to hygienic concerns.
  • Another disadvantage is that a seat upholstery usually does not have a flat surface, but a surface that slopes away from the compartment wall in the manner of a seat. Relaxed lying is hardly possible on such an inclined surface. The same applies to the back part of the bench, which also serves as a couch. It is also exposed to constant pollution and shows a surface design that is more adapted to the needs of sitting than lying down.
  • the seat part of the reclining furniture is designed so that it has both a seat surface and, facing away from this surface, a lying surface.
  • the seat part can be pivoted in such a way that, depending on the use of the seat-lying furniture for sitting or lying, the seat or lying surface forms the top of the seat part. This makes it possible to design the seat surface in a contour adapted to the sitting position, without the sleeping or resting comfort being impaired thereby. Because the lying and seating areas are formed on the two flat sides of the seat part facing away from one another, each area can have a shape that is adapted to the intended use.
  • the pivot axis of the seat part runs in its longitudinal direction and horizontally, only a simple pivoting of the seat part by 180 ° is necessary to convert from the rest or sitting position into the lying position.
  • both surfaces are in a protected position, namely on the underside of the seat part, which practically prevents the deposition of dust. This is particularly advantageous for hygienic reasons for the lying surface.
  • the seat is advantageously designed in the form of individual seats arranged side by side.
  • each individual seat can be designed with an individual seat contour, for example in the form of a bucket seat. It is also conceivable that the individual seats are flanked by armrests.
  • the division into individual seats can be Claim 3 also take place in that the seat part is composed of a plurality of individual seat parts which can be pivoted independently of one another about a common or separate pivot axes. To prepare the lying position, only the individual individual seat parts then have to be swiveled through 180 °. The undersides of the individual seat parts then together form the lying surface.
  • an embodiment of a compartment according to the invention in which the back part of the seating and reclining furniture is designed in the manner of a couch, one flat side of which is designed as a backrest surface and the other flat side of which is designed as a lying surface.
  • the back part can be pivoted back and forth between a rest position and a lying position. In the rest position, the backrest and lying surface are arranged essentially vertically, the lying surface facing the wall and essentially resting against it. In the lying position, the backrest and lying surface are arranged essentially horizontally, the lying surface now forming the top of the back part or the bed.
  • the backrest surface and the lying surface can therefore have shape designs adapted to the corresponding form of use.
  • the back part is held on its narrow side walls by two holding arms pivotably mounted on the wall in the vertical direction between an upper and a lower position.
  • the lower position of the holding arms corresponds to the rest position of the back part. In this position, the holding arms extend downwards and run approximately parallel to the wall, the lying surface of the back part faces the wall.
  • the holding arms In the upper position, which corresponds to the lying position of the back part, the holding arms project substantially horizontally from the wall.
  • the back section can now be rotated around a horizontal axis running parallel to the wall. Its lying surface can therefore be arranged horizontally and pointing upwards.
  • the backrest surface of the back part is formed by the surface of a separate molded back part, which is removable from the back part.
  • the advantage of this configuration is, among other things, that the molded part can be cleaned separately from the remaining parts of the bed-seat combination.
  • the back molding is pivotally mounted on the seat part.
  • the advantage of this configuration is that a special padding for producing the backrest surface can be dispensed with in the back part.
  • the back part can rather be designed very simply and be a standard part. This can be, for example, an essentially rectangular or cuboid-shaped bed, as is used in the compartments in question as a third, top-most lying option.
  • Such an additional, third couch is mentioned in claim 12. It is pivotally attached to the compartment wall in the same way as the back part of the seating and reclining furniture, the lying surface also facing the wall in the rest position and being protected from dirt.
  • the side of the bed facing away from the bed surface namely its visible surface, can be coated with decorative materials.
  • the visible surface of the surface structure and coloring of the compartment walls could be adapted.
  • the visible surface of the third bed is provided with side headrests.
  • These side headrests are preferably slidable. They are, as stated in claim 12, lockable in different height positions and thus adaptable to different body sizes.
  • a seat-reclining furniture hereinafter referred to as bench 1, and a bed 2 are arranged on the walls 5 running transversely to the longitudinal direction 3 of the compartment 4.
  • the seat 1 is essentially composed of a seat part 6 and a back part 7.
  • the essentially cuboid-shaped seat part 6 is arranged such that its plane extends horizontally and its longitudinal side wall 8 facing the wall 5 extends parallel to the wall 5.
  • the top of the seat part 6 is as a seat 9
  • the underside is designed as a lying surface 10.
  • the seat surface is formed by a separate molded seat part 13 placed on the upper side of the seat part.
  • the molded seat part 13 can be detachably attached to the seat part 6, whereby it can be removed, for example for cleaning purposes.
  • the seat part 6 is held by two support arms 14 which are fastened at one end in the wall 5.
  • the support arms 14 project substantially horizontally from the wall 5.
  • Their free ends are provided with pivot eyes 15 (FIG. 5) into which a pivot pin 17 arranged on the narrow side wall 16 of the seat part 6 projects.
  • the seat part can be pivoted about the pivot pins arranged on both sides of the seat part 6, the pivot axis 11 running horizontally and parallel to the wall 5.
  • the seat part 6 is formed by a total of three individual seat parts 12.
  • each individual seat part 12 can either, as shown in FIG. 5, be pivotable about a common pivot axis 11.
  • each individual seat part 12 it is also conceivable for each individual seat part 12 to have a separate individual pivot axis 11 'which runs transversely to the pivot axis 11 or to the longitudinal extension of the seat part 6.
  • the back part 7 of the seat 1 is essentially cuboid and approximately in the manner of the seat part 6. His plan level runs according to the situation. 1 parallel to the wall 5. One of its flat sides, namely its rear, is practically in contact with the wall 5 and is designed as a lying surface 18.
  • the backrest surface 21 of the back part 7 facing away from the rear is essentially formed by a separate molded back part 19.
  • the molded back part 19 is connected to the molded seat part 13 via an articulated connection 20. It can therefore be folded away from the back part 7 and onto the molded seat part 13 in the direction of the arrow 23.
  • a part of the back part which is practically the same in shape, namely the bed 2 is arranged on the wall 5.
  • the plane of this couch 2 runs vertically and parallel to wall 5.
  • the flat side of couch 2 facing wall 5 is designed as a couch surface 24.
  • the flat side of the bed 2 opposite the bed surface 24 has no special function, it is only a visible surface 25. It can therefore be coated, for example, with a decorative material corresponding to the surface structure and color of the wall 5.
  • Side headrests 26 are arranged on the visible surface 25. The side headrests 26 overlap with their lower part the flat side of the back part 7 facing away from the wall 5 and abut with their lower end side on the upper edge of the back molded part 19.
  • the molded seat part 13, the molded back part 19 and the side headrest 26 therefore form optically and functionally a single seat with an individual seat contour.
  • the side headrests 26 are on the visible surface 25 transversely to the longitudinal direction of the bed (2), in the situation according. Fig.2, so displaceable in the vertical direction 27.
  • Two holding arms 28 are arranged on the wall 5 at a distance from one another.
  • the holding arms 28 are pivotally attached at one end to the wall 5.
  • the pivot axis 31 (FIG. 6) runs horizontally and parallel to the wall 5, so that the holding arms 28 can be pivoted in the pivoting direction 29 (FIG. 1).
  • the free ends of the holding arms 28 have a bearing eye 30 (FIG. 6).
  • a bearing journal 33 projects into this bearing eye 30 and protrudes from the narrow side wall 34 of the bed 2 (or the back part 7). With this journal 33, the bed 2 is rotatably mounted in the bearing eye 30 about the axis of rotation 32.
  • the bed 2 In the upper position of the holding arms 28, that is to say if they project substantially horizontally from the wall 5, the bed 2 can therefore be pivoted in order, as shown in FIG. 3, to turn the lying-down lying surface 24 of the bed 2 upwards. In its upper position, i.e. So if they protrude horizontally from the wall 5, the holding arms 28 can be locked.
  • a compartment according to the invention can be converted for a night or rest situation: First, the back molding 19 is moved forward in the direction of arrow 23 onto the seat surface 9 or the seat molding 13 worked. Then the side headrests 26 are displaced upwards in the vertical direction 27 until they are completely on the visible surface 25 of the bed 2. Next, back part 7 and couch 2 are folded up in the direction of arrows 35 in (FIG. 2) until their plane is arranged horizontally. In this position, the holding arms 28 are fixed by a lock. In Figure 2, the previous position of the back part 7 and couch 2 is indicated according to Figure 1 by the dash-dotted line 37.
  • the lying surfaces 10, 18 and 24 of the seat part 6, back part 7 and bed 2 are each arranged on the underside in the situation shown in FIG. 2, ie they point to the bottom of compartment 4.
  • the final lying position is reached when bed 2, back part 7 and seat part 6 can be pivoted through 180 ° in the direction of arrows 36 (FIG. 3).
  • the end of this pivoting movement is shown in Fig.4.
  • Seat part 6, back part 7 and couch 2 are in a horizontal orientation.
  • Your lying surfaces 10, 18 and 24 face upwards.
  • the side headrests 26 are now arranged on the underside of the bed 2.
  • the molded seat part 13 and the back molded part 19 are now located on the underside of the seat part 6. From the situation shown in FIG. 4, the starting position according to FIG. 1 is reached by moving in the reverse order.
  • the usable height available in the compartment for the arrangement of 3 sleeping places extends to the lower edge 38 of the vaulted ceiling 39 of compartment 4. Because of the swivel mechanism according to the invention, the bed 2 arranged at the top can be arranged relatively close to the lower edge 38, since its swivel range is in the lying position below their plan level. The usable height can therefore be used optimally, the sleeping places, ie seat part 6, back part 7 and couch 2 can be arranged so that there is a comfortable height distance between them.
