Definitions

  • the invention relates to a pendulum device for swinging suspension of an object and a seat device with such a pendulum device for swinging suspension of the seat.
  • Conventional chairs usually have a relatively rigid, immovable seat. This leads to a quiet, almost motionless sitting, whereby certain muscles and muscle groups are constantly charged over a longer period, while others are not activated at all. Such uninterrupted tension of individual muscles can easily lead to tension, especially in the area of the spine. A reduced well-being, a decrease in the ability to concentrate and damage to health are the result. In order to avoid such consequences, regular exercise, targeted training of the supportive musculature and therapeutic measures, such as massages, are recommended. Such measures are complex and expensive.
  • Another way to prevent muscle tension due to prolonged immobile sitting is to use the neuro-physiological mechanisms of the proprioceptive system specifically to avoid overloading individual muscles and instead promote the coordinated interaction of entire musculature of the musculoskeletal system.
  • This idea is the DE 82 22 691 U1 and the DE 35 06 377 A1 based. It describes a chair in which an upper and lower part are arranged to be movable relative to each other. Continuous mobility results in continuous stimulation of proprioceptive feedback.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object to provide a pendulum device that further develops the prior art advantageous.
  • the object is solved by the features of claim 1.
  • the essence of the invention is to support a pendulum element by means of a transition piece against a fastening device for suspending the pendulum element. As a result, the assembly of the pendulum element is much easier. In addition, a free, amplitude-dependent damped oscillation of the pendulum element is supported by this arrangement.
  • a pendulum device 1 is formed substantially rotationally symmetrical to a longitudinal axis 2 extending in a longitudinal direction L. In the longitudinal direction L, the pendulum device 1 successively has a first end region 3 with a first attachment device 4, a connection region 5 and a second end region 6 with a second attachment device 7.
  • the pendulum device 1 has in its interior a running in the longitudinal direction L, the first attachment means 4 with the second attachment means 7 connecting soul 8.
  • the core 8 is for example made of wire, natural fiber or plastic fiber and may consist of a single fiber or a plurality of individual fibers twisted or stranded together.
  • the core 8 is surrounded by a cladding 9.
  • the envelope 9 has a multiplicity of relatively rigid, bead-like bodies 10.
  • the diameter of the bead-like body 10 is in the middle region of the Connection area 5 largest and decreases towards the end regions 3, 6 down.
  • elastic intermediate elements 11 are arranged between each two bead-like bodies. In this case, the bead-like body 10 and the elastic intermediate elements 11 may be positively, in particular materially connected to each other.
  • the first fastening device 4 comprises a sleeve-shaped end sleeve 12 which is open on one side, a fastening nut 13, a hollow cylindrical tubular sleeve 14 with an annular collar 15 at its end facing the fastening nut 13 and an elastic element 16.
  • the end sleeve 12 is advantageously made of metal, surrounds with its sleeve-shaped end of the first end region 3 facing the end of the soul 8 and is non-positively connected to this, for example, pressed.
  • the end sleeve 12 has an external thread 18, which matches an internal thread of the fastening nut 13.
  • the fastening nut 13 is designed in particular as a hexagon cap nut.
  • the fastening nut 13 is designed as a self-locking nut.
  • the fastening nut 13 rests with its side facing the connection region 5 on the collar 15 of the tubular sleeve 14.
  • a metallic washer is advantageously arranged between the fastening nut 13 and the collar 15 of the tubular sleeve 14.
  • the washer has a similar outer diameter as the collar 15 of the tube sleeve 14.
  • the tube sleeve 14 is made of a hard, abrasion-resistant plastic. It is positively mounted on the ferrule 12 and is rotatable relative to it about the longitudinal axis 2.
  • the collar 15 of the tube sleeve 14 comes in the mounted pendulum device 1 between the mounting nut 13 with the washer and a first holding member 17 to lie.
  • the tube sleeve 14 is arranged in a receptacle 37 in the first holding element 17.
  • the receptacle 37 has inner dimensions which are at least as great as the outer diameter of the tubular sleeve 14.
  • the inner dimensions of the receptacle 37 are slightly larger than the outer diameter of the tubular sleeve 14, so that a free movement of the tubular sleeve 14 and thus the first fastening device 4 is ensured in the receptacle 37.
  • the elastic element 16 is arranged in the longitudinal direction L between the first holding element 17 and the casing 9.
  • An additional elastic element 16 may be provided between the collar 15 of the tube sleeve 14 and the receptacle 37.
  • the sheath 9 has a hollow cylindrical interior 19 with an inner diameter which corresponds to the outer diameter of the tubular sleeve 14, so that the tubular sleeve 14 can be inserted into the sheath 9.
  • the second attachment means 7 is substantially mirror-symmetrical to the first attachment means 4. Instead of the end sleeve 12 and screwed onto the end sleeve 12 mounting nut 13 with washer, however, a one-piece, sleeve-shaped end piece 20 may be provided with end stop disc arranged.
  • the seat device 21 has a seat surface 22, wherein the seat surface 22 may have a well-known, for example in desk chairs usual form.
  • the seat 22 is on at least three support points 23 connected to a support frame 24.
  • the support frame 24 includes three support bracket 38.
  • the mounting bracket 38 of the support frame 24 are arranged distributed uniformly over a circle and are in turn each rigidly connected to one of the second holding elements 25.
  • two mounting brackets 38 are currently connected to each other by means of one of the second holding elements 25.
  • the mounting bracket 38 may be formed integrally with the second holding elements 25, for example.
  • the first holding element 17 is connected to the respectively associated second holding element 25 by means of one of the pendulum devices 1 vibratable.
  • the pendulum device 1 is connected in each case by means of the first fastening device 4 with the first holding element 17 and by means of the second fastening device 7 with the second holding element 25 frictionally.
  • the longitudinal axis 2 of the pendulum device 1 is parallel to the vertical in this arrangement. However, it is possible to easily arrange the pendulum devices 1 inclined to the vertical.
  • the first holding elements 17 are each arranged at the end of an arm 26. They are advantageously each formed integrally with the associated arm 26.
  • the length of the arms 26 is such that none of the arms 26 protrude beyond the seating surface 22.
  • the arms 26 are part of a suspension system 29, which in turn is attached to one of office swivel chairs generally known support frame, such as a stand 27.
  • the base 27 may advantageously be arranged centrally on a 5-arm roller turnstile. He may also have an actuatable via an adjustment lever 28 height adjustment and a suspension mechanism.
  • the seat surface 22 rigidly connected to the support frame 24 is thus capable of oscillating, being connected in a swinging manner to the base 27.
  • mounting brackets 38 and arms 26, in particular an alternative number of mounting brackets 38 of the arms 26 and the pendulum devices 1, are possible.
  • four pendulum devices 1 may each be arranged in pairs symmetrically to a median plane of the seat surface 22.
  • the tube sleeve 14 is inserted from below into the receptacle 37 in the second holding element 25.
  • the core 8 is threaded through with the end sleeve 12 fixedly attached at its first end from below through the tubular sleeve 14 of the second fastening device 7 until the end piece 20 rests against the collar 15 in the tubular sleeve 14.
  • the elastic element 16 of the second fastening device 7 is guided by the sheath 9 over the core 8 and fitted onto the tube sleeve 14 surrounding the end piece 20.
  • the elastic element 16 of the first fastening device 4 is now pushed over the end sleeve 12. Then, the end sleeve 12 is guided through the recess in the first holding element 17. Subsequently, the tube sleeve 14 of the first fastening device 4 is inserted from above via the end sleeve 12 by the receptacle in the first holding element 17 and the elastic element 16 in the enclosure 9. Finally, the fastening nut 13 is screwed onto the external thread 18 of the end sleeve 12. About the depth of engagement of the mounting nut 13 on the external thread 18, the effective pendulum length and thus the vibration behavior of the pendulum device 1 fine-tuned. A corresponding adjustment is also possible via the elastic element 16.
  • the pendulum device 1 is essentially a filament pendulum with a stable equilibrium position suspended on the first retaining element 17 by means of the first fastening device.
  • the elastic sheath 9 leads to an amplitude-dependent, progressive damping of the pendulum motion.
  • the damping in the range of small pendulum amplitudes is largely negligible, so that the pendulum device 1 in this area can swing substantially freely, ie undamped.
  • Such vibrations are approximately in a horizontal plane and have only a small vertical component.
  • the mechanical properties of the pendulum device 1, such as the maximum achievable under normal circumstances pendulum amplitude can be significantly influenced.
  • the length of the core 8 has a direct influence on the natural frequency of the pendulum device 1.
  • the natural frequency f E of the pendulum device 1 is in the range from 0.1 hertz to 10 hertz, in particular in the range from 0.5 hertz to 5 Hertz. It has been proven that vibrations in this frequency range are particularly relaxing and beneficial, as they are ideally adapted to the information flow of the proprioceptive system. As a result, the natural, neurophysiological mechanisms of sensorimotor stimulation are exploited particularly advantageously.
  • the tubular sleeves 14 allow a low-friction and thus low-wear oscillating movement in the first and second holding element 17, 25. They serve to decouple the end sleeve 12 from the first holding member 17 and the end piece 20 from the second holding member 25. For this purpose, they each cooperate with the elastic element 16, which in a tilting of the fastening nut 13 or the collar 15 of the tubular sleeve 14 relative to the first holding element 17 and a tilting of the end piece 20 together with the collar 15 of the tubular sleeve 14 relative to the second retaining element 25 and at a tilting at least one of the holding elements 17, 25 relative to the sheath 9 is deformed elastically yielding.
  • the elastic element 16 also serves to compensate for tolerances in the length of the core 8 and the casing 9.
  • the elastic casing 9 together with at least one of the elastic elements 16 leads to a jerk-free damping and limitation of the maximum achievable under normal circumstances pendulum -Amplitude.
  • the fixation of the end sleeve 12a by means of the locking ring 31 allows a particularly simple, fast assembly of the pendulum device 1a.
  • the sheath 9b surrounds the core 8 and the end sleeve 12 in the first end region 3b and the end piece 20 in the second end region 6b.
  • the sheath 9b has a spherical cap-shaped clamping head 33 both in the first end area 3b and in the second end area 6b.
  • the flat side of the gripping head 33 in each case points away from the connection area 5 in the direction of the end areas 3b, 6b.
  • the receptacle 37b is cup-shaped in this embodiment and has on at least one side a Einhtician 39 with a hooking direction 40.
  • the spherical cap-shaped clamping head 33 is in each case suspended in the matching dish-shaped receptacle 37b in the first and second holding element 17b and 25b in the hooking-in direction 40.
  • fuse covers 34 are provided in order to secure the pendulum device 1 b against accidental slipping out of the cup-shaped receptacle 37 b in the first holding member 17 b or second holding member 25 b.
  • the fuse covers 34 each engage over the free, flat end of the gripping head 33 and each have a recess 35 adapted to the free protruding end of the gripping head 33.
  • Each of the fuse covers 34 surrounds the clamping head 33 in a radial direction, ie, perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, on all sides.
  • the fuse cover 34 is non-positively releasably connected to the holding element 17b, 25b, for example screwed by a screw 36 with this.
  • the receptacle 37b with the hooking-in opening 40 in the holding element 17b, 25b leads to a particularly simple assembly of the pendulum device 1b, since in such an embodiment it does not have to be disassembled into its individual parts or assembled from its individual parts. In particular, an exchange of the pendulum device 1b is thereby facilitated.
  • a unilaterally open receptacle according to this embodiment is therefore advantageously also possible in the other embodiments.
  • the half-shell-shaped receptacle 37b of the spherical cap-shaped clamping head 33 allows a particularly undisturbed oscillation of the pendulum device 1b, in particular in the hooking direction 40.
  • the oscillatory behavior of the pendulum Device 1b specifically influence in different vibration levels.
