Definitions

  • the invention relates to articulated armchairs and seats and particularly it refers to an articulated foldable armchair in a minimum encumbrance configuration.
  • the main object of the present invention is to propose an articulated foldable armchair, having minimum encumbrance in a refolded condition and being easily transportable by a single person only even through small and narrow openings.
  • Another object is to propose an armchair, which can assume several different configurations in order to provide high comfort to the user.
  • the armchair object of the present invention has very thin sides or side portions, stuffed arms, which can be folded aligned to the side portions, and a reclining and tip-up backrest, which can be folded over above the seat, aligned to the arms, in order to obtain a folded configuration of said armchair.
  • the armchair has the shape of a very compacted parallelepiped, which can be fit into a container having small dimensions, eventually with wheels and transport handles.
  • numeral reference 20 indicates an articulated foldable armchair having a main body 21, a seat 2, two sides 1, each one connected to a respective arm 5, and a backrest 3.
  • the armchair 20 includes first articulated means 10 which connect each side 1 to the respective arm 5 and define a rotation axis of this latter laying on a plan defined by the respective side 1 and preferably, in the preferred embodiment, positioned on the external face of said side 1, parallel to the seat 2.
  • each arm 5 can be rotated of around 90° degrees between an open position in which it is approximately orthogonal to the respective side 1 and a closed position in which it is nearly aligned to said side 1.
  • the armchair also includes second articulated means 11, fir for rotatably connecting a portion of the backrest 3 or the whole backrest for its rotation around an axis almost parallel to the seat 2 and orthogonal to the sides 1, for allowing the user to adjust the backrest inclination according his requirements.
  • the armchair has a footrest 7, which is connected to the main body 21, in correspondence of its front and lower portion, by third articulated means 8, constituted by a system of poles and articulated connecting rods.
  • the footrest 7 is mobile between a retracted condition R, in which said footrest 7 mates the main body 21 and is almost orthogonal to the seat 2, and an extended condition D, in which the footrest 7 is in high position and almost parallel to the seat 2.
  • the third articulated means 8 are covered at the top by a canvas 9, which joins the footrest 7 to the main body 21 of the armchair.
  • Motorized means for instance electric motors of known type and not shown in the figures, are provided for moving the backrest 3, the arms 5 and the footrest 7, through suitable transmission means, of known type and not shown.
  • the operation of the articulated folding armchair 20 provides that, in an operating condition A of the armchair 20, the first articulated means 10 allow blocking the arms 5 in a position approximately orthogonal to the sides 1, while the second articulated means 11 allow moving the portion of the backrest 3 in a spaced out position from the seat 2.
  • the articulated means 10, 11 In a folded condition B, the articulated means 10, 11 allow folding the arms 5 and said portion of the backrest 3 respectively nearly aligned to the respective sides 1 and nearly against the seat 2, in order to allow the armchair 20 having compact external dimensions.
  • the compact configuration of the armchair 20 allows this latter to be easily fit in a container or enclosure, for instance provided with wheels and transport handles, and to be transported effortlessly through doors and passages, also of reduced dimensions.
  • the main advantage of the present invention is to provide an articulated foldable armchair, having minimum encumbrance in a refolded condition and being easily transportable by a single person only even through small and narrow openings.
