Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Sitzmöbel mit Rückenlehne und in die Rückenlehne integrierter Kopfstütze, wobei die Rückenlehne neigungsverstellbar ist, wobei die Kopfstütze gegenüber der Rückenlehne höhen- und neigungseinstellbar ist, wobei die Kopfstütze an der Rückenlehne mittels einer Kulissenführung derart geführt ist, dass der Verschiebebewegung der Kopfstütze bei der Höhenverstellung eine Neigungsbewegung überlagert ist, und am oberen Ende der Rückenlehne paarweise Beschlagplatten mit Kulissensteinen oder -bolzen angeordnet sind, am unteren Ende der Kopfstütze paarweise Haltebleche mit einer leicht gebogenen Führungskontur vorgesehen sind, wobei die Kulissensteine oder -bolzen in die Führungskonturen eingreifen.The invention relates to a chair with backrest and integrated into the backrest headrest, the backrest is tilt adjustable, the headrest height and tilt adjustable against the backrest, wherein the headrest is guided on the backrest by means of a slotted guide such that the sliding movement of the headrest in the height adjustment, a tilting movement is superimposed, and at the upper end of the backrest pairs fitting plates with sliding blocks or bolts are arranged at the bottom of the headrest pair retaining plates are provided with a slightly curved guide contour, the sliding blocks or bolts engage in the guide contours.

Im Stand der Technik sind derartige Sitzmöbel vielfach bekannt. Beispielsweise ist ein einsitziges oder zweisitziges Sitzmöbel bekannt, welches eine Rückenlehne aufweist, an der am oberen Endbereich eine Kopfstütze angelenkt ist. Wird bei einem solchen Sitzmöbel die Kopfstütze gegenüber der Rückenlehne nach vorn geneigt, so entsteht eine Quetschung der vorderseitigen Polsterung und des vorderseitigen Bezuges, der durchgehend die Rückenlehne und die Kopfstütze überzieht. Eine solche Faltenbildung ist unerwünscht, da sie einerseits optisch unansehnlich ist und andererseits auch zu Verschleiß des Polstermaterials oder des Bezugmaterials führt.In the prior art such chairs are widely known. For example, is a one-seater or two-seater seating known, which has a backrest to which a headrest is articulated at the upper end region. If the headrest is tilted forward relative to the backrest in such a chair, there is a pinch of the front padding and the front cover, which continuously covers the backrest and the headrest. Such wrinkling is undesirable because it is on the one hand visually unsightly and on the other hand also leads to wear of the padding material or the cover material.

Aus der US-A-3033610 ist ein Sitzmöbel bekannt, bei dem an der Kopfstütze ein Hebel befestigt ist, dessen anderes Ende in einem hinter der Rückenlehne verdeckt angeordneten Bereich an einem Stellmechanismus angelenkt ist. An dem Hebel ist ein Führungsbolzen befestigt, der in einen Führungsschlitz eines Führungsbleches eingreift, welches in der Rückenlehne rückwärtig des Polsterteiles befestigt ist. Bei einer solchen Ausbildung ist die starre Befestigung des Hebels an der Kopfstütze, die Lagerung des Hebels über einen Bolzen in der Schlitzführung und die Anlenkung des Hebels an einem Stellteil rückseitig der Rückenlehne zwingendes Erfordernis für die Funktion des Elementes. Ohne den zusätzlichen Stellhebel, der an der Kopfstütze befestigt ist und mit dem Bolzen in den Führungsschlitz eingreift, ist der Mechanismus nicht funktionsfähig. Aus dieser Anordnung resultiert zudem der Nachteil, dass die Neigungsverstellung der Kopfstütze nur in beschränktem Maße möglich ist, weil die am Rückenteil verdeckt angeordnete Schlitzführung große Bewegungswinkel nicht zulässt.From the US-A-3033610 is a chair known in which a lever is attached to the headrest, the other end is hinged in a concealed behind the backrest region arranged on an adjusting mechanism. On the lever, a guide pin is fixed, which engages in a guide slot of a guide plate which is fixed in the back of the back of the cushion part. In such a design, the rigid attachment of the lever to the headrest, the storage of the lever via a bolt in the slot guide and the articulation of the lever to a control part on the back of the backrest mandatory requirement for the function of the element. Without the additional lever, which is attached to the headrest and engages with the bolt in the guide slot, the mechanism is not functional. From this arrangement also results in the disadvantage that the inclination adjustment of the headrest is possible only to a limited extent, because the back part concealed arranged slot guide does not allow large movement angle.

Aus der US-A-5927804 ist es bekannt, dass die Kopfstütze an der Rückenlehne mittels einer Kulissenführung derart geführt ist, dass der Verschiebebewegung der Kopfstütze bei der Höhenverstellung eine Neigungsbewegung überlagert ist, und wobei am oberen Ende der Rückenlehne paarweise Beschlagplatten mit Kulissensteinen oder -bolzen angeordnet sind, am unteren Ende der Kopfstütze paarweise Haltebleche mit einer leicht gebogenen Führungskontur vorgesehen sind, wobei die Kulissensteine oder -bolzen in die Führungskonturen eingreifen.From the US-A-5927804 It is known that the headrest is guided on the backrest by means of a sliding guide so that the Moving movement of the headrest in the height adjustment a tilting movement is superimposed, and wherein at the upper end of the backrest pairs fitting plates with sliding blocks or bolts are arranged at the bottom of the headrest pair holding plates are provided with a slightly curved guide contour, the sliding blocks or bolts in the guiding contours intervene.

Dadurch, dass die Kopfstütze sowohl höhenverstellbar als auch neigungseinstellbar ist, ist es möglich, dass bei der Verschwenkung der Kopfstütze aus einer relativ aufrechten Lage in eine nach vorn geneigte Lage gleichzeitig eine Höhenverstellung vorgenommen wird, so dass hierdurch eine Quetschung des Polstermaterials und/oder des Bezugmaterials vermieden wird. Das Polstermaterial und/oder Bezugsmaterial, welches vorzugsweise durchgehend die Rückenlehne und die Kopfstütze umhüllt, kann zwängungsfrei der Bewegung der Kopfstütze folgen, ohne dass es zur Faltenbildung oder zu Verwurf kommt, wenn die Kopfstütze nach vorn geneigt und gleichzeitig um ein entsprechendes Maß höhenverstellt wird.The fact that the headrest is both adjustable in height and adjustable in inclination, it is possible that at the same time a height adjustment is made during the pivoting of the headrest from a relatively upright position in a forwardly inclined position, so that thereby a pinch of the cushioning material and / or Cover material is avoided. The padding material and / or cover material, which preferably continuously encloses the backrest and the headrest, can follow the movement of the headrest in a non-constraining manner, without the formation of wrinkles or creasing, when the headrest is inclined forwards and at the same time adjusted in height by a corresponding amount.

Durch diese Ausbildung wird in einfacher Weise eine zwangsführung erreicht, die dauerhaft funktionstüchtig ist.Through this training, a forced guidance is achieved in a simple manner, which is permanently functional.

Zudem erfolgt durch diese Ausbildung eine Zwangsverschiebung der Kopfstütze, sofern diese aus einer relativ aufrechten Lage gegenüber der Rückenlehne in eine nach vorn geneigte Lage verschwenkt wird, so dass der Benutzer die Kopfstütze nicht zweifach manipulieren muss, sondern lediglich durch die Neigungsbewegung der Kopfstütze auch gleichzeitig die Verschiebebewegung der Kopfstütze relativ vom oberen Ende der Rückenlehne weg bewirkt.In addition, by this training, a forced displacement of the headrest, provided that it is pivoted from a relatively upright position relative to the backrest in a forwardly inclined position, so that the user does not have to manipulate the headrest twice, but only by the inclination movement of the headrest at the same time Displacement movement of the headrest causes relatively away from the upper end of the backrest.

Eine ähnliche konstruktive Lösung ist aus der US-A-2989341 bekannt.A similar constructive solution is from the US-A-2989341 known.

Um ein besonders komfortables Sitzmöbel zu schaffen, wird vorgeschlagen, dass in die Rückenlehne ein Stellantrieb integriert ist, mittels dessen die Rückenlehne neigungsverstellbar ist, und dass die Kopfstütze über Stellhebel mit dem Stellantrieb gekoppelt ist, so dass mit der Neigungsverstellung der Rückenlehne eine Höhen- und Neigungsverstellung der Kopfstütze erfolgt.To create a particularly comfortable seating, it is proposed that in the backrest an actuator is integrated, by means of which the backrest is adjustable in inclination, and that the headrest is coupled via adjusting lever with the actuator, so that with the tilt adjustment of the backrest a height and Tilt adjustment of the headrest is done.

Sofern der Stellantrieb vom Benutzer zur Neigung der Rückenlehne aus der Grundstellung in eine Komfortstellung betätigt wird, so wird hierbei gleichzeitig über die Stellhebel die Kopfstütze vom oberen Ende der Rückenlehne weg bewegt und nach vorn geneigt. Beim Rücklauf, also bei Verstellung der Rückenlehne aus der Komfortlage in die Grundstellung erfolgt gleichzeitig die Rückführung der Kopfstütze in die Grundstellung.If the actuator is operated by the user to the inclination of the backrest from the basic position in a comfort position, this is simultaneously moved over the lever, the headrest from the upper end of the backrest and tilted forward. When returning, so when adjusting the backrest from the comfort position to the basic position is simultaneously the return of the headrest in the normal position.

Bevorzugt ist zudem vorgesehen, dass der Neigungswinkel der Kopfstütze auf etwa 20 ° beschränkt ist.Preferably, it is also provided that the inclination angle of the headrest is limited to about 20 °.

Ausführungsbeispiele der Erfindung sind in der Zeichnung dargestellt und im folgenden näher beschrieben. Es zeigt:

Figur 1 und 2

dieses Ausführungsbeispiel in der Funktionslage.
Embodiments of the invention are illustrated in the drawings and described in more detail below. It shows:
FIGS. 1 and 2
an embodiment of the invention in the basic position
FIGS. 3 and 4
this embodiment in the functional position.

In der Zeichnung ist von dem Sitzmöbel lediglich der Korpus einer Rückenlehne 1 mit daran am oberen Ende angeordneter Kopfstütze 2 gezeigt. In der zeichnerischen Darstellung ist auf die Darstellung von Polstermaterial und Bezugsmaterial verzichtet. Bei dieser Ausbildung ist die Kopfstütze 2 gegenüber der Rückenlehne 1 höhenverstellbar, wie aus der Gegenüberstellung insbesondere der Figuren 2 und 4 ersichtlich ist, so dass die Kopfstütze 2 von dem oberen Ende der Rückenlehne 1 weg bewegbar oder zu diesem Ende hin bewegbar ist. Gleichzeitig ist die Kopfstütze 2 neigungsverstellbar, so dass sie in der Grundstellung gemäß Figur 1 und 2 eine im Wesentlichen ebene Verlängerung der Rückenlehne bildet, während sie in der Funktionslage gemäß Figur 3 und 4 leicht nach vorn zur Sitzvorderkante hin geneigt ist. Gleichzeitig ist in den Figuren eine Neigung der Rückenlehne 1 gezeigt, die in Figur 1 und 2 in einer aufrechten Grundstellung ausgerichtet ist, während sie in Figur 3 und 4 nach hinten, also von der Sitzvorderkante weg schräg geneigt ist.In the drawing, only the body of a backrest 1 with arranged at the upper end headrest 2 is shown by the seating. In the graphic representation is dispensed with the presentation of upholstery material and cover material. In this embodiment, the headrest 2 relative to the backrest 1 is adjustable in height, as from the comparison especially the Figures 2 and 4 is apparent, so that the headrest 2 from the upper end of the backrest 1 is movable away or movable towards this end. At the same time, the headrest 2 is tilt-adjustable, so that they are in the normal position according to FIGS. 1 and 2 forms a substantially planar extension of the backrest, while in the functional position according to FIGS. 3 and 4 is slightly inclined forward to the seat leading edge. At the same time an inclination of the backrest 1 is shown in the figures, which in FIGS. 1 and 2 is oriented in an upright basic position, while she is in FIGS. 3 and 4 to the rear, that is obliquely inclined away from the seat leading edge.

Die Kopfstütze 2 ist am oberen Ende der Rückenlehne 1 mittels einer Kulissenführung 3 zwangsgeführt, und zwar derart, dass der Verschiebebewegung der Kopfstütze 2 beispielsweise aus der Position gemäß Figur 2 in die Position gemäß Figur 4 bei der Höhenverstellung eine Neigungsbewegung nach vorn überlagert ist. Auf diese Weise wird sichergestellt, dass das Bezugsmaterial, was insbesondere vorderseitig die Rückenlehne 1 und die Kopfstütze 2 durchgehend abdeckt und ebenso das Bezugsmaterial bei der Verschwenkung der Kopfstütze 2 aus der Position gemäß Figur 2 in die Position gemäß Figur 4 nicht verquetscht wird oder verworfen wird und Falten bildet, da der Neigungsbewegung der Kopfstütze 2 eine Längsverschiebebewegung von der Rückenlehne 1 weg überlagert ist.The headrest 2 is forcibly guided at the upper end of the backrest 1 by means of a slotted guide 3, in such a way that the sliding movement of the headrest 2, for example, from the position according to FIG. 2 in the position according to FIG. 4 in the height adjustment, a tilting movement is superimposed forward. In this way, it is ensured that the cover material, which in particular the front side, the backrest 1 and the headrest 2 covers continuously and also the cover material in the pivoting of the headrest 2 from the position according to FIG. 2 in the position according to FIG. 4 is not squeezed or is discarded and forms wrinkles, since the tilting movement of the headrest 2 is superimposed on a longitudinal sliding movement of the backrest 1 away.

Die Anordnung ist so getroffen, dass die Kopfstütze 2 von der Bewegung der Rückenlehne 1 zwangsgesteuert ist, und zwar derart, dass bei einer Bewegung der Rückenlehne 1 aus der im Wesentlichen aufrechten Grundstellung gemäß Figur 1 und 2 in eine geneigte Ruhestellung gemäß Figur 3 und 4 eine Zwangsverschiebung der Kopfstütze 2 vom oberen Ende der Rückenlehne 1 weg und gleichzeitig eine Zwangsverschwenkung der Kopfstütze 2 nach vorn in Richtung zur Vorderkante des Sitzmöbels erfolgt.The arrangement is such that the headrest 2 is positively controlled by the movement of the backrest 1, in such a way that upon movement of the backrest 1 from the substantially upright basic position according to FIGS. 1 and 2 in an inclined rest position according to FIGS. 3 and 4 a forced displacement of the headrest 2 from the upper end of the backrest 1 away and at the same time a Zwangsverschwenkung the headrest 2 after forward toward the front edge of the chair.

Bei der gezeigten Ausführungsform ist in die Rückenlehne 1 ein Stellantrieb 4 verdeckt integriert, mittels dessen die Rückenlehne 1 neigungsverstellbar ist. Die Kopfstütze 2 ist über Stellhebel 5,6,7 mit dem Stellantrieb 4 gekoppelt, so dass mit der Neigungsverstellung der Rückenlehne 1 eine Höhen- und Neigungsverstellung der Kopfstütze 2 erfolgt. Der Stellantrieb 4 greift dabei an einer Drehtraverse 8 über einen daran drehfest befestigten Hebel 5 an. An der Traverse 8 ist ein ebenfalls drehfester Hebel 6 befestigt, an dem ein Stellhebel 7 angelenkt ist, der wiederum an einem Beschlagteil 9 der Kopfstütze 2 angelenkt ist. Der Stellantrieb ist elektromotorisch angetrieben und gegebenenfalls mittels einer Fernbedienung betätigbar.In the embodiment shown, an actuator 4 is concealed integrated in the backrest 1, by means of which the backrest 1 is tilt-adjustable. The headrest 2 is coupled via adjusting levers 5,6,7 with the actuator 4, so that with the tilt adjustment of the backrest 1 is a height and tilt adjustment of the headrest 2. The actuator 4 engages on a rotary crosshead 8 via a non-rotatably mounted lever 5. On the cross member 8, a likewise rotationally fixed lever 6 is fixed, on which an adjusting lever 7 is hinged, which in turn is hinged to a fitting part 9 of the headrest 2. The actuator is driven by an electric motor and optionally actuated by means of a remote control.

Am oberen Ende der Rückenlehne 1 sind paarweise Beschlagplatten 10 mit Kulissensteinen 11 befestigt. Am unteren Ende der Kopfstütze 2 sind entsprechende Beschlagplatten 12 befestigt, wobei diese Beschlagplatten oder Haltebleche 12 mit einer leicht gebogenen Führungskontur 13 versehen sind, deren Krümmungsmittelpunkt mit erheblichem Abstand vorderseitig der Rückenlehne 1 beziehungsweise Kopfstütze 2 liegt. Die Kulissensteine oder Bolzen 11 sind in die Führungskontur 13 eingesetzt, so dass bei einer Verschiebung der Kopfstütze 2 aus der Position beispielsweise gemäß Figur 2 in die Position gemäß Figur 4 eine Höhenverstellung und eine dieser Höhenverstellung überlagerte Neigung der Kopfstütze nach vorn erfolgt. Der Neigungswinkel der Kopfstütze 2 ist durch die entsprechende Führungskontur 13 auf etwa 20 ° begrenzt.At the upper end of the backrest 1 fitting plates 10 are mounted in pairs with sliding blocks 11. At the lower end of the headrest 2 corresponding fitting plates 12 are fixed, these fitting plates or retaining plates 12 are provided with a slightly curved guide contour 13, the center of curvature lies at considerable distance on the front side of the backrest 1 and headrest 2. The sliding stones or Bolt 11 are inserted into the guide contour 13, so that upon displacement of the headrest 2 from the position, for example according to FIG. 2 in the position according to FIG. 4 a height adjustment and a height adjustment superimposed tilt of the headrest takes place forward. The inclination angle of the headrest 2 is limited by the corresponding guide contour 13 to about 20 °.

Durch die erfindungsgemäße Ausbildung wird erreicht, dass ein Verschwenken der Kopfstütze 2 nach vorn keine Verkürzung des Bezugmaterials oder des Bezugstoffes bewirkt, da die Kopfstütze beim Verschwenken gleichzeitig eine Verschiebebewegung von der Rückenlehne 1 weg nach oben beziehungsweise zurück nach unten bewirkt.The inventive construction ensures that a pivoting of the headrest 2 does not cause foreshortening of the cover material or the cover fabric forward, since the headrest simultaneously causes a displacement movement of the backrest 1 up or back down when pivoting.

Die Erfindung ist nicht auf das Ausführungsbeispiel beschränkt, sondern im Rahmen der Offenbarung vielfach variabel.The invention is not limited to the embodiment, but in the context of the disclosure often variable.
