Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein in ein Bett verwandelbares Sitzmöbel, dessen Rückenlehne mittels Armen in die Ebene der Sitzfläche schwenkbar ist, wobei die Arme einerends an einem Sitzgestell, anderends an der Rückenlehne angelenkt sind, wobei ferner eine Bettbespannung mittels eines Selbstrollers beim Umwandeln des Möbels in die Liegestellung selbsttätig über die Liegefläche gezogen wird.The invention relates to seating that can be converted into a bed, whose backrest can be swiveled into the plane of the seat by means of arms, the arms on one side on a seat frame, the other on the backrest are articulated, wherein also a bed cover by means of a self-roller Conversion of the furniture into the lying position automatically via the lying surface is pulled.

Bei einem aus der CH 445 757 A bekannten Möbel dieser Art ist der Selbstroller an der Rückenlehne befestigt. Dies hat unter anderem den Nachteil, daß er in der Liegestellung vorsteht und derart hinderlich sein kann.In a piece of furniture of this type known from CH 445 757 A, the Self-roller attached to the backrest. Among other things, this has the disadvantage that he protrudes in the lying position and can be so cumbersome.

In der WO 91/08696 ist ein Möbel beschrieben, bei dem das Sitzgestell verstellbar in einem Möbelgestell geführt ist, an dessen Rückseite in der Sitzstellung des Möbels ein Ergänzungspolster hochkant steht, der mit seitlichen Armen in Schlitzen schwenk- und verschiebbar gerührt ist. Die Schlitze verlaufen dabei parallel zum Boden und es ist keine Bettbespannung vorgesehen.WO 91/08696 describes a piece of furniture in which the seat frame is adjustable in a furniture frame, on the back in the Seating position of the furniture is an upholstered upholstery, with side Arms in slots is swiveled and moved. The slots run parallel to the floor and there is no bedding provided.

Die Erfindung hat es sich zum Ziel gesetzt, ein Möbel der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, das keinen vorstehenden Selbstroller aufweist und noch weitere Vorteile besitzt. Erreicht wird dies dadurch, daß der Selbstroller längs der hinteren unteren Seite des Sitzgestelles angeordnet ist und daß die Länge der Arme in Bezug auf die Rückenlehne so bemessen ist, daß die Rückenlehne im Zuge ihrer Schwenkbewegung von der Polsterung des Sitzgestelles abgehoben ist.The invention has set itself the goal of furniture at the beginning to create mentioned type, which has no protruding self-roller and still has other advantages. This is achieved in that the self-scooter along the rear lower side of the seat frame is arranged and that the length of the arms is dimensioned with respect to the backrest so that the backrest in the course of their Pivotal movement is lifted from the upholstery of the seat frame.

Bisher schien die Anordnung des Selbstrollers am Sitzgestell deshalb nicht möglich zu sein, weil bei einer solchen Anordnung die Bettbespannung beim Zurückziehen an der Sitzfläche anliegt und die dabei entstehende Reibung vom Selbstroller nicht immer überwunden werden kann. Ein Einklemmen der auf der Liegefläche aufliegenden Bettbespannung zwischen der Liegefläche und der zurückgeschwenkten Rückenlehne war daher immer zu befürchten. Bei einem erfindungsgemäßen Möbel wird jedoch die Rückenlehne von der Polsterung des Sitzgestelles gehoben, sodaß das Zurückziehen der Bettbespannung durch den Selbstroller nicht behindert wird. So far, the arrangement of the self-scooter on the seat frame did not seem so to be possible, because with such an arrangement, the bed covering at Pull back against the seat and the resulting friction from Self-scooter cannot always be overcome. Pinching the on the Bed surface between the bed surface and the bed cover swung backrest was therefore always to be feared. At a furniture according to the invention, however, the backrest of the upholstery Seat frame raised, so that the pulling back of the bed cover by the Self-scooter is not hindered.

Zweckmäßig besteht dabei die Bettbespannung aus einer Steppdecke mit Weichfüllung und einem darauf abnehmbar befestigten Bettuch. Um die Reinigung zu erleichtern wird vorgeschlagen, daß das Bettuch mittels eines Klettverschlusses an der Steppdecke befestigt ist.Appropriately, the bed cover consists of a quilt with Soft filling and a removable sheet attached to it. For cleaning To facilitate it is proposed that the sheet by means of a Velcro is attached to the quilt.

Zur Verminderung der Reibung zwischen Bettbespannung und Polster ist der Polster des Sitzgestelles in dem von der Rückenlehne überdeckten hinteren Bereich mit einem anderen Stoff als im vorderen Bereich überzogen.To reduce the friction between the bed cover and the upholstery Upholstery of the seat frame in the rear area covered by the backrest covered with a different fabric than in the front area.

Bei einer Ausführungsform eines erfindungsgemäßen Möbels ist das Sitzgestell verstellbar in einem Möbelgestell geführt, an dessen Rückseite in der Sitzstellung des Möbels ein Ergänzungspolster hochkant steht, der mit seitlichen Armen in schräg nach hinten verlaufenden Schlitzen schwenk- und verschiebbar geführt ist.In one embodiment of a piece of furniture according to the invention Seat frame adjustable in a furniture frame, on the back in the Seating position of the furniture is an upholstered upholstery, with side Arms can be swiveled and slid in sloping slots is led.

Zweckmäßig ist dabei das Sitzgestell seitlich an Führungen verschiebbar, die sowohl vorne als auch hinten nach unten abgeschrägt sind.Appropriately, the seat frame is laterally displaceable on guides that are bevelled downwards both at the front and rear.

Durch die Erfindung wird ein Möbel geschaffen, das sowohl optisch als auch hinsichtlich des erreichten Komforts optimal ist. Als Bett weist es die richtige Höhe auf, kann mit einer Federung wie in normalen Betten versehen werden, wobei bei der Umwandlung in ein Bett völlig automatisch die Bettbespannung überzogen wird. Ebenso automatisch wird bei der Rückverwandlung in ein Sitzmöbel die Bettbespannung eingezogen. Das erfindungsgemäße Möbel kann mit einem großen und leicht zugänglichen Bettzeugraum versehen werden und ist äußerst leicht zu bedienen. Trotz all dieser Vorteile ist die Herstellung einfach und daher auch billig.The invention creates a piece of furniture that is both visually and is optimal in terms of comfort achieved. As a bed, it shows the right one Height, can be provided with suspension like in normal beds, whereby when converting to a bed, the bed cover is automatically covered becomes. When converting back to seating, the is also automatic Bedding pulled in. The furniture according to the invention can with a large and easily accessible bedding room and is extremely easy to serve. Despite all these advantages, the production is simple and therefore also cheap.

Nachstehend ist die Erfindung anhand zweier Ausführungsbeispiele näher beschrieben, ohne auf diese Beispiele beschränkt zu sein.The invention is described in more detail below using two exemplary embodiments described without being limited to these examples.

Es zeigen: Fig. 1 die teilweise geschnittene Seitenansicht eines erfindungsgemäßen Möbels in der Sitzstellung; Fig. 2 das Möbel in Seitenansicht in der Liegestellung; Fig. 3 eine teilweise Draufsicht auf das Möbel nach Fig. 2, die Fig. 4 einen Schnitt nach der Linie IV-IV in Fig. 3; die Fig. 5 und 6 Seitenansichten des Möbels in verschiedenen Zwischenstellungen und Fig. 7 die Seitenansicht einer zweiten Ausführungsform.1 shows the partially sectioned side view of a furniture according to the invention in the sitting position; Fig. 2 shows the furniture in side view the lying position; Fig. 3 is a partial plan view of the furniture of FIG. 2, the 4 shows a section along the line IV-IV in Fig. 3. 5 and 6 side views of the furniture in various intermediate positions and Fig. 7 the Side view of a second embodiment.

Gemäß den Fig. 1 bis 6 weist ein erfindungsgemäßes Möbel ein Möbelgestell mit zwei Seitenwänden 1 und einer Rückwand 2 auf. Die Oberkanten der Seitenwände 1 sind als Führungen 3 für Rollen 4 ausgebildet, die an einem Ende eines mit einer Polsterung 5 versehenen Sitzgestelles 6 angeordnet sind. Das Sitzgestell 6 weist an seinem den Rollen 4 gegenüber liegendem Ende Füsse 8 auf, die mit Rollen 7 versehen sind. Aus Fig. 1 ist ersichtlich, daß die Rollen 7 in der Sitzstellung nicht am Boden aufruhen.1 to 6, a piece of furniture according to the invention has a furniture frame with two side walls 1 and a rear wall 2. The top edges of the Side walls 1 are designed as guides 3 for rollers 4, which at one end a seat frame 6 provided with upholstery 5 are arranged. The Seat frame 6 has feet 8 at its end opposite rollers 4, which are provided with rollers 7. From Fig. 1 it can be seen that the rollers 7 in the Do not rest your sitting position on the floor.

Ein gepolstertes Gestell 10 ist mittels seitlicher Arme 9 bei 9' am Sitzgestell 6 schwenkbar gelagert. Dieses Gestell 10 ist mit Füssen 11 versehen und dient in der Sitzstellung des Möbels als Rückenlehne und als Endpolster der Liegefläche in der Liegestellung. Zur Vereinfachung wird im Folgenden dieses Gestell als Rückenlehne 10 bezeichnet. In Fig. 1 ist veranschaulicht, daß auch eine Ausbildung als Hochlehner möglich ist. Die zugehörige Rückenlehne ist mit 10' bezeichnet.A padded frame 10 is by means of side arms 9 at 9 'on the seat frame 6 pivoted. This frame 10 is provided with feet 11 and serves in the seating position of the furniture as a backrest and as an end cushion of the lying surface in the lying position. For the sake of simplicity, this frame is referred to below as Backrest 10 designated. In Fig. 1 it is illustrated that training is possible as a high back. The associated backrest is designated 10 '.

An der Unterseite jedes Sitzgestelles 6 ist an jeder Seite eine Rolle 12 befestigt, welche in der Sitzstellung des Möbels auf der Führung 3 aufliegt. Zwei auf der Vorderseite des Möbelgestelles befestigte, den Rollen 12 zugeordnete Keile 13 bewirken, daß beim Ausfahren des Sitzgestelles 6 dieses abgesenkt wird, bis die Rollen 7 am Boden aufruhen. Umgekehrt wird beim Einfahren des Sitzgestelles 6 in die in Fig. 1 gezeichnete Stellung dieses gehoben, so daß zwischen Boden und Füßen 8 bzw. Rollen 7 ein freier Raum verbleibt. Dies verstärkt den Eindruck eines grazilen Möbels, insbesondere in Wohnlandschaften.On the underside of each seat frame 6 there is a roller 12 on each side attached, which rests on the guide 3 in the seating position of the furniture. Two on the front of the furniture frame attached wedges assigned to the rollers 12 13 cause that when the seat frame 6 is extended, it is lowered until the Rest rollers 7 on the floor. Conversely, when the seat frame 6 is retracted the position shown in Fig. 1 raised so that between the floor and Feet 8 or rollers 7 a free space remains. This reinforces the impression of one delicate furniture, especially in residential landscapes.

Die Führungen 3 sind sowohl vorne als auch hinten nach unten abgeschrägt. Die hintere Abschrägung bewirkt, wie aus Fig. 1 ersichtlich ist, daß die Rollen 4 und damit das hintere Ende des Sitzgestelles 6 in der Sitzstellung des Möbels nach unten abgesenkt wird, sodaß eine schräge Sitzfläche (Polsterung 5) gebildet wird. Die vordere Abschrägung der Führungen 3 kommt beim Vorziehen des Sitzgestelles 6 zur Wirkung, indem die Rollen 4 je in einer durch diese Abschrägung und Anschläge 18 gebildeten Vertiefung gehalten sind.The guides 3 are bevelled downwards both at the front and at the rear. As can be seen from FIG. 1, the rear bevel causes the rollers 4 and thus the rear end of the seat frame 6 in the seating position of the furniture is lowered below, so that an oblique seat (upholstery 5) is formed. The front bevel of the guides 3 comes when pulling the Seat frame 6 to effect by the roles 4 each in one by this Bevel and stops 18 are formed depression.

In den Seitenwänden 1 des Möbelgestells sind Schlitze 14 angeordnet, die als Führungen für Rollen 15 dienen, die an den Enden von Armen 16 vorgesehen sind. Das andere Ende der Arme 16 ist an einem weiteren Polster 17 befestigt. Die Schlitze 14 verlaufen nach unten gegen die Rückwand 2 hin, um eine Bewegung des Polsters 17 von seiner Sitzstellung in die Liegestellung zu unterstützen.In the side walls 1 of the furniture frame slots 14 are arranged serve as guides for rollers 15, which are provided at the ends of arms 16 are. The other end of the arms 16 is attached to another pad 17. The Slots 14 run down against the back wall 2 for movement to support the cushion 17 from its sitting position into the lying position.

Längs der hinteren unteren Seite des Sitzgestelles 6 ist ein Selbstroller 20 angeordnet, auf dem in der Sitzstellung des Möbels eine Bettbespannung 21 aufgewickelt ist. Das nicht aufgerollte Ende der Bettbespannung 21 ist auf einer Leiste 22 der Rückenlehne 10 befestigt. Zweckmäßig besteht die Bettbespannung 21 aus zwei Teilen, nämlich einer Steppdecke mit Weichfüllung und einem Bettuch (Leintuch). Das Bettuch ist vorteilhaft abnehmbar an der Steppdecke befestigt, um es zur Reinung leicht abnehmen zu können. Als Befestigung hat sich ein Klettverschluß bewährt.Along the rear lower side of the seat frame 6 is a self-roller 20 arranged on which in the seating position of the furniture a bed cover 21st is wound up. The unrolled end of the bed cover 21 is on one Ledge 22 of the backrest 10 attached. The bed cover is useful 21 of two parts, namely a quilt with soft filling and a sheet (Sheet). The sheet is advantageously attached to the quilt to be removable easy to remove for cleaning. As an attachment has a Proven Velcro.

Wenn das Möbel aus seiner in Fig. 1 ersichtlichen Sitzstellung in die Liegestellung nach den Fig. 2 und 3 gebracht wird, werden die Rückenlehne 10 und damit die Arme 9 nach vorne verschwenkt und auf das Sitzgestell 6 aufgelegt, das dann mit der Rückenlehne 10 ausgezogen wird. Nun wird die Rückenlehne 10 weiter verschwenkt und mittels der Füsse 11 am Boden abgestützt. Schließlich wird der Polster 17 in die horizontale Stellung verschwenkt, wobei er sich über die Rollen 15 im Schlitz 14 schräg nach unten bewegt und um die Rollen 15 schwenkt. When the furniture from its seat shown in Fig. 1 in the 2 and 3 is brought, the backrest 10 and so that the arms 9 pivoted forward and placed on the seat frame 6, the then pulled out with the backrest 10. Now the backrest 10 pivoted further and supported by feet 11 on the ground. Finally the cushion 17 is pivoted into the horizontal position, wherein it over the Rollers 15 in the slot 14 moved obliquely down and pivots about the rollers 15.

Bei der Verschwenkung der Rückenlehne 10 wird das Ende der Bettbespannung 21 mitgenommen und diese vom Selbstroller 20 abgerollt sowie über den Polster 5 und die Rückenlehne 10 gelegt. Um die Reibung zwischen dem Polster 5 und der Bettbespannung 21 möglichst klein zu halten, ist es zweckmäßig, den Polster 5 in dem von der Rückenlehne 10 überdeckten Bereich mit einem glatten Stoff 30 zu überziehen. Der vordere Teil des Polsters 5 wird in üblicher Weise mit einem Möbelstoff 31 überzogen. Da Möbelstoffe im allgemeinen teuer sind, wird hiedurch nicht nur eine Reibungsverminderung sondern auch eine Ersparnis erzielt.When the backrest 10 is pivoted, the end of the Carried bed cover 21 and unrolled from the self-roller 20 and placed over the cushion 5 and the backrest 10. To the friction between the To keep the cushion 5 and the bed cover 21 as small as possible, it is expedient the cushion 5 in the area covered by the backrest 10 with a to cover smooth fabric 30. The front part of the cushion 5 is in the usual Way covered with a furniture fabric 31. Because upholstery fabrics are generally expensive are not only a reduction in friction, but also one Savings achieved.

Wenn der Polster 17 beginnt nach unten zu schwenken, bewegen sich die Rollen 15 entlang des Schlitzes 14 nach hinten, wodurch sie die Abwärtsbewegung des Polsters 17 erleichtern. Dies kann zusätzlich durch die Anordnung von Federn (nicht dargestellt) an den Armen 16 unterstützt werden.When the cushion 17 begins to pivot down, the move Roll 15 backwards along slot 14, causing them to move downward facilitate the cushion 17. This can also be done by arranging springs (Not shown) on the arms 16 are supported.

Die zweifach schwenkbar gelagerten Arme 9 halten das Sitzgestell 6 und die Rückenlehne 10 im Abstand zueinander. An einem Ende der Arme 9 sind diese schwenkbar mit der Rückenlehne 10 verbunden, derart, daß diese in der Liegestellung so nahe wie möglich beim hinteren Ende der Rückenlehne 10 liegt.The two pivotally mounted arms 9 hold the seat frame 6 and Backrest 10 at a distance from each other. At one end of the arms 9 are these pivotally connected to the backrest 10, such that this in the Lying position is as close as possible to the rear end of the backrest 10.

Die Arme 9 sind dabei schwenkbar mit Metallplatten 40 verbunden, die entlang der Seitenkanten des Sitzgestelles 6 derart angeordnet sind, daß sie einen Benützer in der Sitzstellung nicht stören. Die Platten 40 sind mit einem Paar von Anschlägen versehen, wobei der erste Anschlag 42 die Rückenlehne 10 in der Sitzstellung und der zweite Anschlag 44 die Rückenlehne 10 in der Liegestellung sichert. Die Anschläge 42, 44 sind derart zur Abstützung der Arme 9 in der Sitz- und Liegestellung ausgebildet, daß nur ein verhältnismäßig geringer Druck über die Achsen in den Platten 40 übertragen wird.The arms 9 are pivotally connected to metal plates 40 which are arranged along the side edges of the seat frame 6 such that they have a Do not disturb users in the sitting position. The plates 40 are with a pair of Stops provided, the first stop 42, the backrest 10 in the Sitting position and the second stop 44 the backrest 10 in the lying position backs up. The stops 42, 44 are designed to support the arms 9 in the seat and lying position designed that only a relatively low pressure over the Axes in the plates 40 is transmitted.

Das Möbel wird in umgekehrter Richtung in die Sitzstellung verbracht, wobei vorerst der Polster 17 gehoben wird und dann sehr leicht in seine vertikale Stellung gelangt. Anschließend wird die Rückenlehne 10 gehoben, und auf das Sitzgestell 6 aufgelegt (Fig. 5).The furniture is moved to the sitting position in the opposite direction, initially the cushion 17 is lifted and then very easily in its vertical Position reached. Then the backrest 10 is raised, and on the Seat frame 6 placed on (Fig. 5).

Zur Erzielung eines hohen Liegekomforts weist der Polster 17 Federholzleisten 50 auf. Auch die Rückenlehne 10 ist mit Federholzleisten 51, 52 versehen, die bei einem Doppelbett in der Mitte des Möbels auf einem Träger 53 abgestützt sind. Das in der Liegestellung dem Polster 17 zugewendete Ende des Trägers 53 ist über ein Z-förmiges Profil 54 und eine Schichtholzleiste 55 auf einer nach oben gewölbten Federholzleiste 56 abgestützt. Diese stützt sich auf einen Querträger 57 ab. Dadurch wird eine optimale Federung erreicht.In order to achieve a high level of lying comfort, the cushion 17 Spring slats 50 on. The backrest 10 is also made of wooden slats 51, 52 provided with a double bed in the middle of the furniture on a support 53 are supported. The end facing the cushion 17 in the lying position Carrier 53 is on a Z-shaped profile 54 and a laminated wood strip 55 on one supported upward arched wooden slat 56.
