The reclining chair has a back rest (13) and a reclining head rest (15) which is connected to it by the fabric (19) of the upholstery. This allows the head rest to be increased in length by stretching and compression of the fabric when it swivels.

Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Sitz-/Liegemöbel mit einem abwinkelbaren Funktionsteil, insbesondere einem Rücken- oder Seitenteil.The present invention relates to a sitting / lying furniture with a bendable functional part, in particular a back or side part.

Derartige abwinkelbare Funktionsteile bieten vielfältige Nutzungsmöglichkeiten und bestimmen darüber hinaus das Design des Möbels. In manchen Fällen ist es wünschenswert, dass die Länge eines verschwenkbaren Klappabschnitts des Funktionsteils in Abhängigkeit von der Schwenkstellung variiert, um beispielsweise bei einem Rückenteil eine möglichst hohe Rückenlehne im aufrecht gestellten Zustand zu erhalten, ohne dass im abgeklappten Zustand ein entsprechender Platz benötigt wird, sondern insbesondere auch aus Designgründen der Klappabschnitt im abgeklappten Zustand eine geringere Länge aufweist als in der aufrechten Stellung.Such bendable functional parts offer a variety of uses and also determine the design of the furniture. In some cases, it is desirable that the length of a pivotable flap portion of the functional part varies depending on the pivot position, for example, to obtain the highest possible backrest in the upright state at a back, without a corresponding space is required in the folded state, but especially for design reasons, the folding portion in the folded state has a shorter length than in the upright position.

Hierzu sind Beschläge mit Zwangshebelführungen bekannt, die jedoch den Nachteil besitzen, dass durch den Beschlag die Längenverhältnisse und damit insbesondere die Höhe oder Länge des Funktionsteils im aufrecht gestellten Zustand unveränderbar vorgegeben ist.For this purpose, fittings with positive lever guides are known, however, have the disadvantage that the length ratios and thus in particular the height or length of the functional part is set unchangeable in the upright state by the fitting.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, ein Sitz-/Liegemöbel der vorstehend erläuterten Art dahingehend weiterzubilden, dass hinsichtlich der Festlegung der Längenverhältnisse eine größere Flexibilität besteht, wobei Aufbau und Bedienbarkeit möglichst einfach sein sollen.The object of the invention is to develop a sitting / reclining furniture of the type described above to the effect that with regard to the determination of the length ratios greater flexibility exists, with design and ease of use should be as simple as possible.

Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe erfolgt durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs.The solution of this object is achieved by the features of the claim.

Erfindungsgemäß umfasst dass abwinkelbare Funktionsteil einen feststehenden Grundabschnitt und einen relativ zum Grundabsch-nitt verschwenkbaren Klappabschnitt, der in einer Richtung senkrecht zur Schwenkachse längenverstellbar ist, wobei der Grundabschnitt und der Klappabschnitt durch ein Kopplungsteil, insbesondere eine Polsterung des Funktionsteils, miteinander verbunden sind und beim Verschwenken des Klappabschnitts relativ zum Grundabschnitt Streckungen und/oder Stauchungen des Kopplungsteils eine Längenveränderung des Klappabschnitts bewirken.According to the invention that bendable functional part comprises a fixed base portion and a relative to the Grundabsch-nitt pivotable flap portion which is adjustable in length in a direction perpendicular to the pivot axis, wherein the base portion and the flap portion by a coupling part, in particular a padding of the functional part, are interconnected and during pivoting the folding portion relative to the base portion extensions and / or compressions of the coupling member cause a change in length of the flap portion.

Die Längenverstellbarkeit des Klappabschnitts ermöglicht eine "natürliche" Bewegung des Kopplungsteils beim Verschwenken des Klappabschnitts, wodurch störende Verformungen des Kopplungsteils und damit insbesondere störende Faltenbildungen eines Polsterbezuges vermieden werden.The length adjustability of the folding portion allows a "natural" movement of the coupling part during pivoting of the folding portion, whereby disturbing deformations of the coupling part and thus in particular disturbing wrinkles of a cushion cover can be avoided.

Durch die Erfindung können außerdem die Längenverhältnisse des verschwenkbaren Klappabschnitts durch die Art und Weise, wie der Klappabschnitt und der Grundabschnitt durch das Kopplungsteil miteinander verbunden werden, gezielt vorgegeben werden. Hierdurch ist man bei der Auslegung des Möbels flexibel, ohne unterschiedliche Beschläge bereithalten zu müssen. Die Erfindung schafft die vorteilhafte Möglichkeit, die ohnehin bei Polstermöbeln erforderliche Polsterung gewissermaßen als Steuerung für den längenverstellbaren Klappabschnitt zu nutzen. Eine Anpassung der Längenverhältnisse an die jeweiligen Bedürfnisse kann einfach dadurch erfolgen, dass die Polsterung in einem mehr oder weniger stark gestreckten bzw. gestauchten Zustand mit dem Grundabschnitt und dem Klappabschnitt verbunden wird.By the invention, also the length ratios of the pivotable flap portion by the manner in which the flap portion and the base portion are connected by the coupling member, can be specified. This makes it flexible in the design of the furniture, without having to have different fittings ready. The invention provides the advantageous possibility to use the padding required anyway for upholstered furniture, as it were, as a control for the length-adjustable folding section. An adaptation of the length ratios to the respective needs can be done simply by the padding is connected in a more or less extended or compressed state with the base portion and the flap portion.

Ein weiterer Vorteil der Erfindung besteht darin, dass ein Beschlag mit einem sehr einfachen Aufbau verwendet werden kann, der insbesondere keine Zwangsführungsmechanik aufweist.Another advantage of the invention is that a fitting with a very simple structure can be used, which in particular has no positive guidance mechanism.

Die Längenveränderbarkeit des Klappabschnitts kann gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung der Erfindung dadurch realisiert werden, dass das Kopplungsteil, insbesondere die Polsterung, mit einem Ausziehteil des Klappabschnitts verbunden ist. Hierzu kann der Klappabschnitt einen Teleskopauszug aufweisen, wie er beispielsweise bei Schubladen verwendet wird.The length variability of the flap portion can be realized according to a preferred embodiment of the invention in that the coupling part, in particular the padding, is connected to an extension part of the flap portion. For this purpose, the folding section may have a telescopic extension, as used for example in drawers.

Weitere bevorzugte Ausführungsformen der Erfindung sind in der Beschreibung sowie der Zeichnung angegeben.Further preferred embodiments of the invention are specified in the description and the drawing.

Die Erfindung wird im Folgenden beispielhaft unter Bezugnahme auf die Zeichnung beschrieben, deren einzige Figur in einer teilweisen Seitenansicht eine Ausführungsform eines erfindungsgemäßen Sitz-/Liegemöbels zeigt.The invention is described below by way of example with reference to the drawing, the single figure shows a partial side view of an embodiment of a sitting / lying furniture according to the invention.

Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Sitz-/Liegemöbel kann es sich um einen Sessel oder um ein als Ein- oder Mehrsitzer ausgebildetes Sofa handeln. Das Funktionsteil 11 des dargestellten Möbels ist eine Rückenlehne, wobei die Erfindung aber auch an einem Seitenteil eines Sessels oder Sofas realisiert sein kann.The seat / reclining furniture according to the invention may be a chair or a sofa designed as a one or more seater. The functional part 11 of the furniture shown is a backrest, but the invention can also be realized on a side part of a chair or sofa.

Das Rückenteil 11 umfasst eine Polsterung 19, die im unteren Bereich vor einem Abschnitt eines festen Basisteils oder Korpus 10 angeordnet ist, der nach oben über eine hier nicht dargestellte Sitz-/Liegefläche des Möbels vorsteht.The back part 11 comprises a padding 19, which is arranged in the lower region in front of a section of a fixed base part or body 10 which projects upwards over a seat / lying surface of the furniture, not shown here.

Am Korpus 10 sind zwei parallel verlaufende und mit Abstand voneinander angeordnete Rastbeschläge angebracht, die jeweils einen kurzen, am Korpus 10 befestigten Arm 21 sowie einen langen Arm 23 aufweisen. Zwischen den beiden beabstandeten langen Armen 23 der Rastbeschläge erstreckt sich eine Trägerplatte 27, welche die Polsterung 19 trägt.On the body 10 two parallel and spaced-apart detent fittings are mounted, each having a short, attached to the body 10 arm 21 and a long arm 23. Between the two spaced long arms 23 of the locking fittings, a support plate 27 which carries the padding 19 extends.

Die langen Arme 23 sind jeweils als Teleskopauszug ausgebildet und umfassen jeweils ein Ausziehteil 25. Die erwähnte Trägerplatte 27 ist stirnseitig an den Ausziehteilen 25 befestigt, so dass der Abstand der Trägerplatte 27 zu einer Schwenkachse 17, um welche die langen Arme 23 und damit die Trägerplatte 27 relativ zu den feststehenden kurzen Armen 21 verschwenkt werden können, veränderbar ist. Die Polsterung 19 wiederum ist mit der Trägerplatte 27 und den Ausziehteilen 25 der langen Arme 23 verbunden. Die Trägerplatte 27 und die Ausziehteile 25 können als eine Auszieheinheit angesehen werden.The long arms 23 are each formed as a telescopic extension and each include a pull-out 25. The mentioned support plate 27 is frontally attached to the Ausziehteilen 25, so that the distance between the support plate 27 to a pivot axis 17, around which the long arms 23 and thus the support plate 27 can be pivoted relative to the fixed short arms 21, is variable. The padding 19, in turn, is connected to the carrier plate 27 and the extension parts 25 of the long arms 23. The support plate 27 and the extension parts 25 can be considered as a pull-out unit.

Die Polsterung 19 ist durchgehend ausgeführt, d. h. erstreckt sich über die gesamte Länge des Rückenteils 11. Insbesondere wird der Gelenkbereich 17 überbrückt, der einen feststehenden Grundabschnitt 13 des Rückenteils 11 und einen relativ zum Grundabschnitt 13 verschwenkbaren Klappabschnitt 15 voneinander trennt, die somit durch die Polsterung 19 miteinander gekoppelt sind. Der Klappabschnitt 15 ist durch die an den langen Armen 23 geführte Auszieheinheit aus Trägerplatte 27 und Ausziehteilen 25 längenveränderlich.The padding 19 is executed continuously, d. H. extends over the entire length of the back portion 11. In particular, the hinge portion 17 is bridged, which separates a fixed base portion 13 of the back portion 11 and a pivotable relative to the base portion 13 folding portion 15 from each other, which are thus coupled together by the padding 19. The folding section 15 is variable in length by the guided on the long arms 23 Auszieheinheit from support plate 27 and Ausziehteilen 25.

Die Längenverstellbarkeit des ausziehbaren Klappabschnitts 15 und die Anbringung der durchgehenden Polsterung 19 an der Auszieheinheit des Klappabschnitts 15 haben zur Folge, dass beim Verschwenken des Klappabschnitts 15 relativ zum Grundabschnitt 13 die Polsterung 19 Streckungen bzw. Stauchungen erfährt bzw. in der Polsterung 19 Spannungen entstehen. Diese bewirken eine Ausziehbewegung bzw. Einschiebebewegung der Auszieheinheit 25, 27, d. h. die Polsterung 19 dient insofern gewissermaßen als eine Art Kraft- oder Energiespeicher.The length adjustability of the extendable folding portion 15 and the attachment of the continuous padding 19 on the Auszieheinheit the folding portion 15 have the consequence that upon pivoting of the flap portion 15 relative to the base portion 13, the padding 19 stretches or compressions experiences or in the padding 19 voltages. These cause a pull-out or insertion movement of the pull-out unit 25, 27, ie the padding 19 serves insofar as it were as a kind of power or energy storage.

In der Zeichnung ist der Klappabschnitt 15 in einer abgeklappten Stellung und zwei aufrechten Stellungen dargestellt, wobei die jeweils mit einem Strich versehenen Bezugszeichen eine nur zu Erläuterungszwecken gezeigte Stellung veranschaulichen, welche die entsprechenden Komponenten einnehmen würden, wenn der Klappabschnitt 15 nicht längenverstellbar und die Polsterung 19 somit zu einer "unnatürlichen" Bewegung gezwungen wäre und die daher in der Praxis nicht vorkommt.In the drawing, the folding portion 15 is shown in a folded position and two upright positions, each with a dashed reference numerals illustrate a position shown for illustrative purposes, which would occupy the corresponding components, if the flap portion 15 is not adjustable in length and the padding 19th thus forced to an "unnatural" movement and therefore does not occur in practice.

Ausgehend von der abgeklappten Stellung mit vollständig zusammengeschobenem Klappabschnitt 15 strebt die in dieser Stellung verformte Polsterung 19 danach, sich aufzustellen, was eine Ausziehbewegung und damit - bezogen auf die Schwenkachse 17 - eine Verlängerung des Klappabschnitts 15 zur Folge hat. Umgekehrt führt beim Abklappen oder Abknicken des Klappabschnitts 15 die damit einhergehende Verformung des entsprechenden Abschnitts der Polsterung 19 zu einer Mitnahme der Auszieheinheit 25, 27 und somit zu einem Zusammenschieben des Klappabschnitts 15.Starting from the folded-down position with the folding section 15 completely pushed together, the upholstery 19 deformed in this position strives to set up what an extraction movement and thus - with respect to the pivot axis 17 - an extension of the folding section 15 has the consequence. Conversely, when folding or kinking of the folding portion 15, the associated deformation of the corresponding portion of the padding 19 leads to entrainment of the extraction unit 25, 27 and thus to a collapse of the folding portion 15th

Um eine übermäßige Materialstauchung und damit eine störende Faltenbildung bei einem Bezug der Polsterung 19 zu vermeiden, ist die Polsterung 19 über ihre gesamte Breite mit einem keilförmigen Ausschnitt 29 versehen, wie es in der Zeichnung - lediglich im Bezug auf die aufrechte Stellung des Rückenteils 11 - durch eine gestrichelte Linie angedeutet ist.In order to avoid excessive material compression and thus a disturbing wrinkling in a reference of the padding 19, the padding 19 is provided over its entire width with a wedge-shaped cutout 29, as shown in the drawing - only with respect to the upright position of the back part 11 - is indicated by a dashed line.

Ein wesentlicher Vorteil der Erfindung besteht darin, dass ein Bezug der Polsterung 19 auf der die Anlehnfläche bildenden Vorder- oder Nutzseite des Rückenteils 11 in keiner Schwenkstellung des Klappabschnitts 15 eine störende Faltenbildung aufweist. Eine solche Faltenbildung würde entstehen, wenn die Polsterung 19 zu einer reinen Schwenkbewegung ohne Möglichkeit zur Längenänderung gezwungen wäre, da in einem solchen Fall die Vorderseite im abgeklappten Zustand sich über einen größeren Weg erstrecken würde als in der durch die jeweils mit einem Strich versehenen Bezugszeichen angedeuteten aufrechten Stellung. Die erfindungsgemäße freie Längenveränderbarkeit des Klappabschnitts 15 mittels der Auszieheinheit 25, 27 ermöglicht also eine gewissermaßen ungestörte, "natürliche" Bewegung der Polsterung 19 beim Verschwenken des Klappabschnitts 15 und sorgt somit stets für ein optimales äußeres Erscheinungsbild eines Bezuges der Polsterung 19.A significant advantage of the invention is that a reference of the padding 19 on the front surface or useful side of the back part 11 forming the leaning surface does not have a disturbing fold formation in any pivoting position of the flap section 15. Such wrinkling would occur if the padding 19 were forced to undergo a pure pivoting motion with no possibility of length change, since in such a case the front side would extend over a greater distance in the folded state than indicated in the numeral indicated by the reference numerals upright position. The inventive free length variability of the folding portion 15 by means of the Auszieheinheit 25, 27 thus allows a sort of undisturbed, "natural" movement of the padding 19 during pivoting of the flap portion 15 and thus always provides an optimal external appearance of a cover of the padding nineteenth
