Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a piece of furniture with a component to be adjusted or with a plurality of adjustable components by at least one adjusting device are movable, and in which each adjusting an electromotive Drive unit and a fitting or a lever assembly includes the input member with the output member of the electric motor drive unit and its output member with the component to be adjusted directly or via Coupling elements is coupled, and wherein the electric motor drive unit or the electric motor drive units by means of a control unit or a hand switch are controlled.
  • the component in question is in a preferred embodiment, a sitting or a reclining furniture.
  • the furniture in question are usually to be adjusted with several Equipped components.
  • the adjusting device can be designed so that each component to be adjusted coupled to an electric motor drive unit is.
  • the electric motor drive unit is in such a case as Single drive, because it contains only one output element. It is however alternative also possible that two components with an electric motor drive unit coupled, which contains two output members. Such drive units are referred to as dual drives.
  • the output member of a fitting or a Lever assembly may be coupled directly to the component to be adjusted or but about more levers, rods and similar components.
  • the user of the furniture triggers the respective adjustment function by sending a signal triggered by a manual switch, usually with multiple actuators is equipped because all electric motor drive units If necessary via the manual control unit via the control unit can be controlled.
  • a manual switch usually with multiple actuators is equipped because all electric motor drive units If necessary via the manual control unit via the control unit can be controlled.
  • an actuating element of the manual switch is a signal in the control unit fed, causing the corresponding electric motor drive unit is functionally controlled, but it can also be the signals directly to Control of the drive units can be used.
  • the end positions of the component to be adjusted or the components to be adjusted can be done for example by limit switch. These can be adjusted to the Be mounted components, but then cable connections to the control unit necessary. It is therefore provided in the usual drive units, that when using limit switches, these within the drive unit are mounted. Many drive units consist of a spindle drive, wherein the spindle is surrounded by a flange tube. The limit switches are then functional inserted into the flange tube.
  • the adjusting device described above has proven extremely successful in practice. For furniture, where at one fixed frame pivotable components are hinged, and their ranges of motion are separated or do not overlap, the adjustment is easy use.
  • the invention is based on the object, a piece of furniture described in more detail above To design a way that is effectively prevented by the simplest means, that a collision of components occurs during an adjustment process.
  • the task is solved by adjusting each in the range of motion Components at least one collision switch is arranged such that this is operable before a collision of two or more components, so that by the triggered signal the respective electric motor drive unit function triggering is controllable.
  • Each collision switch is electrically connected to the control unit via cables. As soon as a collision switch is actuated, it is activated via the control unit Signal is triggered, which stops or changes the function of the drive unit becomes.
  • the collision switch or by the collision switch is in particular every drive motor protected against overload, which is considered the most sensitive Component of the adjustment can be viewed.
  • Some furniture can also be constructed so complex that a cable laying is extremely difficult proves. In such cases, the signal transmission to the control unit also wirelessly via radio or infrared signals.
  • each to prevent a Collision to be controlled electric motor drive unit by that of the collision switch Triggered signal is reversible.
  • they cause a collision leading movement is derived from another drive unit is created a sufficient distance by the reversal, so in the other Movement of the component which prevents collision. So this distance is sufficiently large, or that a safety distance is reached, is provided that after reversing the drive unit after a certain return time the drive unit associated with the triggering collision switch can be shut down is. This avoids unnecessary movements.
  • the collision switch is usually equipped with a plunger so that the associated drive unit remains switched on as long as the plunger is actuated.
  • the ram could be pressed again immediately so that it is in operation would come to a variety of switching games. This is meant to be be avoided, as this reduces the life of the switch is reduced. It is therefore intended that the return time of the drive unit is greater than that Switching time of the collision switch.
  • the switching time of the collision switch is the time considered where by collision or retracting by pushing the plunger is activated.
  • This electrical timer consists in a preferred embodiment of a transistor and a capacitor. Of the Capacitor causes the turned on transistor for a certain time still remains conductive.
  • the return time of the drive unit could a mechanical timer be determinable. This timer could, for example the ram, the braked after release by the approached component is extended. The extension time is thereby extended so that the collision switch is activated beyond the normal switching time.
  • each drive unit of the adjustment can be either as a linear drive or as a rotary drive and also be formed in the form of a single or double drive. If the drive unit designed as a double drive could even be a drive unit as a linear drive and the other drive unit be designed as a rotary drive.
  • the control unit of the furniture drive must be designed so that each collision switch can fully fulfill its function. Used to prevent the collision one of the collision switches is actuated or activated in the control unit Changeover block activated so that the drive unit is switched over when one or more collision switches are actuated.
  • the Umticianbaustein of two relays which are linked together so that upon actuation of at least one collision switch for reversing the drive unit both relays are engageable. The first relay is replaced by a latched switch, while the second relay by a timer is controlled. Both relays are now switched. The drive unit is now reversed in your travel direction, as the timer is active. After that the drive unit is stopped and remains in this state until either the collision switch is pressed again or the voltage supply is interrupted. This also coincides the latching of the first relay.
  • the switching frequency is reduced in the event of a collision, whereby the wear of the controller and the drive units reduced becomes.
  • the switching frequency is reduced so that the furniture does not resonate Vibrations is added, reducing the life of the mechanical Adjustment of the furniture is increased.
  • the collision switches can vary depending on the requirement area Designs come into question. For example, a simple design would be an in a separate housing housed switch with a switching contact and an actuation of this contact by a plunger, which in turn immediately the furniture is made.
  • a collision switch could with a like a pull rope or a shift linkage be coupled.
  • the actuating tappet be coupled to the shift linkage, so that a switching operation by actuation of the shift linkage is triggered.
  • Another design has a rope or cord-shaped actuator, which is in operative connection with the plunger of the collision switch. will this Actuator displaced from its rest position to another position, the Pushes plunger of the collision switch, which switches the switching contact.
