Abstract
Anatomisch geformte Sitzschale, gekennzeichnet durch an Seitenprofilen (1, 2) befestigte Sitzbänder (6) -in der Skizze sind nur die vorderen 4 dargestellt- und durch eine Medianstütze (3), an der die Sitzbänder (6) ebenfalls befestigt sind. Durch selbsttätige Anpassung der Sitzbänder (6) an das individuelle Gesäßprofil der Benutzer wird eine hohe Sitzstabilität und eine hohe Gleichmäßigkeit der Sitzdruckverteilung erreicht. Der Abstand der Sitzbänder (6) voneinander sorgt in Verbindung mit einem auf gleiche Dicke geschnittenen offenporigen Schaumstoffpolster für ein sehr gutes Mikroklima. Für Großserienerzeugnisse wie Bürostühle, Auto- und Flugzeugsitze ist die Fertigung der Sitzschale aus einem Stück vorgesehen. Durch Anwendung von Tragbändern (4, 5) gibt es eine faltbare Variante der Sitzschale, die anstelle des Hängegurts aller Rollstühle eingesetzt werden kann. Anatomically shaped seat shell, characterized by seat straps (6) attached to side profiles (1, 2) - only the front 4 are shown in the sketch - and by a median support (3) to which the seat straps (6) are also attached. By automatically adapting the seat belts (6) to the individual buttocks profile of the user, high seat stability and a high uniformity of the seat pressure distribution are achieved. The distance between the seat bands (6) in conjunction with an open-pore foam pad cut to the same thickness ensures a very good microclimate. For large series products such as office chairs, car and airplane seats, the seat shell is made from one piece. By using carrying straps (4, 5) there is a foldable variant of the seat shell that can be used instead of the hanging belt of all wheelchairs.
