Referring firstly to Figures 1 and 2, an article offurniture according to a preferred embodiment of the invention is indicated generally at 10. The furniture 10 is in the form of an integral desk and chair unit. As will be apparent from the following description, the unit is ideally suited for use in a
learning environment such as a classroom, lecture hall or other facility at a school, college or university.
The furniture 10 includes a tubular base frame 12 having a pair of lower arm portions 14 spaced apart from one another by a transverse connecting portion 16. The lower arms 14 arearranged at an angle relative to one another in a horizontal plane, so as to be diverging.
Roller means in the form of two floor engaging rubber wheels 18 are mounted on the base frame 12 adjacent the junction between the connecting portion 16 and the lower arms 14, respectively. The wheels 18 are spaced apart from one another in substantially radial manner and are mounted for rotation about a fixed pivot. The specific orientation of the wheels 18 will be described in more detail below.
A seat stem 20 extends upwardly from the connecting portion 16 of the base frame 12. A seat 22 is mounted on the furniture via a tube 24 telescopically received within the upper end of the seat stem 20. A locating pin 26 is provided for engagement with apertures (not shown) tube 24 for selectively raising or lowering the height of the seat 22. The seat 22 and/or tube 24 maybe rotated through 360 degrees relative to the seat stem 20.
At the end of each arm 14, the base frame 12 includes a pair leg portions 28, extending upwardly from the lower arms 14 as viewed in Figure 1. Footrests30 are provided on the legportions 28, directed inwardly with respect to the longitudinal axis of the furniture 10. A castor arm 32 extends outwardly from each legportions 28, substantially in alignment with the direction of the associated diverging arm 14. A castor 34 is rotatably mounted on the end of each castor arm 32, so as to be floor engaging, in use. As will be understood by a person skilled in the art, each castor 34 includes ahousingportion 36, whichis able to rotate about a vertical axis, and a roller portion 38 mounted for rotation about a horizontal axis.
A table assembly 40 is mounted on the base frame 12, the table assembly 40 consisting of a work
surface 42 supported on a tubular subrrame indicated at 44. The sub frame 44 is telescopically mounted on the leg portions 28 of the base frame 12, as will be understood from Figure 1. Locating pins 46 are provided on the subframe 44 for engagement with apertures (not shown) in the leg portions 28. Hence, the height o f the work surface 42 can be raised or lowered relative to the base frame 12, as required.
The work surface 42 includes a well-type formation 43 forreceivingpens, paper clips and the like. The work surface 42 is ergonomically designed and defines a concave region 48. This enables the furniture to be used in a conventional manner with a user sat facing forwards, as illustrated in Figure 3. Since the seat 22 is rotatable relative to the rest of the unit 10, the frirniture can also be used in other configurations. For example, Figure 4 shows the furniture 10 in use, with a user sat facing rearwardly, with the seat 22 rotated through 180 degrees from the position shown in Figure 3. The concave region 48 defined by the work surface 42 acts as a suitable rest, indicated at 50 in the Figures, against which the user can lean, as illustrated in Figure 4. It will be appreciated that the seat can also be used at any other angle of rotation between those shown in Figures 3 and 4, for example through 90 degrees or 270 degrees, with the concave region 48 and rest 50 able to accommodate a user so positioned on the seat 22.
Referring back to Figure 1 , the furniture 10 is of advantage in that it can be rotated in use, that is to say the whole integral desk and chair unit 10 can be rotated together. More particularly, the radial positioning of the wheels 18 relative to one another defines a virtual pivot, or centre of rotation indicated at 54 inFigure 1. Whentheunit 10 is rotated, the arrangement of the wheels 18 in defining the virtual pivot point is such that the wheels 18prescri.be apredeteiminedcircularpatli indicated by the dotted lines at 52 in Figure 1.
The arrangement of the wheels 18 relative to one another is also advantageous in that it provides a suitable resistance to movement of the unit 10 in other directions, for example in moving the unit 10 backwards, or to the right as viewed in Figure 3. This aspect of the unit 10 increases the overall structural stability of the unit 10 in use, which is of particular importance when the unit is being used
as a writing surface, for example, inthatundesired lateral movement of the unit is substantially obviated.
Referring next to the second preferred embodiment according to the invention of the integral desk and chair unit as shown in Figures 5 to 7, components which correspond to similar components in the first preferred embodiment are numbered similarly.
hi the embodiment shown in Figures 5 to 7, the article of furniture according to a second preferred embodiment of the invention is indicated generally at 10.
The furniture 10 includes a tubular base frame 12 having a pair of lower arm portions 14 spaced apart from one another by a transverse connecting portion 16. The lower arms 14 are arranged at an angle relative to one another in a horizontal plane, so as to be diverging.
Two castor arms 60 extend outwardly from the base frame 12 adjacent the junction between the connecting portion 16 and the lower arms 14, respectively. A castor 62 is rotatably mounted on the end of each castor arm 60, so as to be floor engaging, in use. As will be understood by a person skilled in the art, each castor 62 includes a housing portion 64, which is able to rotate about a vertical axis, and a roller portion 66 mounted for rotation about a horizontal axis.
A seat stem 20 extends upwardly from the connecting portion 16 of the base frame 12. A seat 22 is mounted on the furniture via a tube 24 received within the upper end of the seat stem 20. The tube 24 is adapted to threadedly engage with a matching thread (not visible) formed on the seat stem 22. The seat stem 20 can be rotated relative to the tube 24 for selectively raising or lowering the height of the seat 22.
The seat 22 and/or tube 24 maybe rotated through 360 degrees relative to the seat stem 20 as described above with respect to the first preferred embodiment.
At the end of each ami 14, the base frame 12 includes apair leg portions 28, extending upwardly from the lower arms 14 as viewed in Figure 1. Roller means in the form of a floor engaging rubber wheel 68 is mounted on each legportioii 28 via an arm 70. The wheels 68 are spaced apart from one another in substantially radial manner and are mounted for rotation about a fixed pivot. The specific orientation of the wheels 68 will be described in more detail below.
A table assembly 40 is mounted on the base frame 12, the table assembly 40 consisting of a work surface 42 supported on a tubular subframe indicated at 44. The subframe 44 is telescopically mounted on the leg portions 28 ofthe base frame 12, as will be understood from Figures 5, 6 and
7.
As can be seen from Figures 6 and 7, locating pins 46 are provided on the subframe 44 for engagement with apertures 52 in the leg portions 28. Hence, the height ofthe work surface 42 can be raised or lowered relative to the base frame 12, as required. A spring 54 is located within the subframe 44 between an upper fixed stop 56 mounted in the subframe 44 and a lower fixed stop 58 mounted in the leg portion 28. The spring 54 is biased towards the maximum extended configuration; apartiallyextendedconfigurationisshowninFigureό. The operation of the locating mechanism to adjust the height ofthe table will be described in more detail below.
The work surface 42 includes a well-type formation 43 for receiving pens, paper clips and the like. The work surface 42 is ergonomically designed and defines a concave region 48. This enables the fiirniture to be used in a conventional manner with a user sat facing forwards. Since the seat 22 is rotatable relative to the rest ofthe unit 10, the furniture can also be used in other configurations. For example, the seat 22 maybe rotated through 180 degrees from the position shown in Figure 5 so that the furniture 10 maybe used, with a user sat facing rearwardly, with the seat 22 rotated through 180 degrees from the position shown in Figure 5. The concave region 48 defined by the work surface 42 acts as a suitable rest, indicated at 50 in Figure 5, against which the user can lean. It will be appreciated that the seat can also be used at any other angle of rotation between those described, for example through 90 degrees or 270 degrees, with the concave region 48 and rest
50 able to accommodate a user so positioned on the seat 22.
Referring back to Figure 5, the furniture 10 is of advantage in that it can be rotated in use, that is to say the whole integral desk and chair unit 10 canbe rotated together. More particularly, the radial positioning of the wheels 68 relative to one another defines a virtual pivot, or centre of rotation. When the unit 10 is rotated, the arrangement of the wheels 68 in defining the virtual pivot point is such that the wheels 68 prescribe a predetermined circular path.
Referring back to Figures 6 and 7, in. order to adjust the height of the work surface 42, from, for example the partially extended height as shown in Figure 6, to the minimum height as shown hi Figure 7, the user initially disengages each locating pin 46 from its aperture 52, presses down on the worksurface 42 against the spring 54 until the required aperture 52 is visible and engages the locating pin 46 in the aperture 52 in order to lock the worksurface at the desired height.
