Definitions
- the invention relates to a pivotable backrest for a chair and a chair with swivel armrest, in particular a hospital chair, for example a shower wheelchair, as it is known under the product name Flexo by the company Invacare.
- Armrests are naturally attached to the sides of a chair.
- the front ends of such armrests are often inwardly bent, particularly in sick chairs, to ensure that the person sitting in the chair can not fall forward.
- Even with substantially straight running armrests are sometimes provided to the center of the chair extending attachments, such as writing pads in school chairs or chairs for lecture halls.
- backrests of the type in question are arranged pivotably.
- they can be pivoted in a substantially vertical direction relative to the chair.
- the armrest has a pivotable part, which is articulated pivotably on the chair, preferably in a substantially vertical direction, so that a folding up of the armrest is made possible.
- a chair is for example from the JP 2005 000556 A known.
- An end extending from the armrest towards the middle of the chair or a corresponding attachment, for example in the form of a book rest, can likewise often be folded up in the case of such chairs.
- This rotatable part can for example be a bent end of the armrest itself or else another component to which a component extending towards the center of the chair is attached. If now this rotatable part of the armrest is rotated relative to the pivotable part, the part of the armrest extending towards the middle or the relevant attachment part likewise pivots, preferably upwards, in order thus likewise to facilitate access to the chair.
- Such a chair with an armrest and a device for supporting a small table on the armrest is in the DE 199 05 001 A1 disclosed.
- the invention has for its object to perform an armrest of the type in question or such a chair so that injury when operating the armrest can be avoided.
- the armrest according to the invention is attached to a chair, such as a hospital chair, pivotally mounted. It has a relative to the chair pivotable part and a rotatable part which is rotatable relative to the pivotable part. For pivotal mounting of the pivotable part of the chair, a bearing element is provided.
- the pivotable armrest according to the invention has a locking element that is designed so that the pivotable part of the armrest is pivotable relative to the chair only when the rotatable part of the armrest with respect to the pivotable part assumes a defined predetermined position.
- a defined predetermined position is in particular such a position in which does not occupy a position during vertical pivoting of the pivotable part of the rotatable part, which could endanger or injure a person sitting in the chair.
- the blocking element has a locking pin which protrudes into a bore of a chair-side pivot bearing element in a pivoting preventing blocking position.
- a coupling shaft is preferably provided with a polygon.
- this polygon is designed as a square.
- the polygon designed for example as a square, cooperates with a correspondingly executed recess of a locking disk.
- the number of edges thus determines the number of positions in which the rotatable part of the armrest can be fixed.
- the rotatable part of the armrest can thus occupy four defined positions relative to the pivotable part.
- pivoting of the pivotable part of the armrest is only possible in one of these four positions of the rotatable part.
- the rotatable part of the armrest is preferably fixedly connected to the locking disk.
- the blocking element has a locking pin, which protrudes into a bore of a chair-side pivot bearing element in a pivoting preventing blocking position.
- a chair-side pivot bearing element may be executed in an armrest according to the invention, which is designed as a separately tradable goods, for attachment to any chair.
- a chair-side pivot bearing element may already be fixed.
- the blocking element embodied for example as a coupling shaft
- the blocking element can be displaceably mounted within the pivotable part of the armrest and be biased by means of a compression spring in the direction of the locking disk.
- the displacement of the locking element or the coupling shaft can take place via an outer protective sleeve.
- the blocking element or the coupling shaft can be moved counter to the force of the compression spring, so that the example executed as a square polygon emerges from the recess of the locking disc.
- the fixedly connected to the locking disk rotatable part of the armrest can be rotated in this position of the locking element and, once he has reached one of the predefined possible positions are fixed in this position by the outer protective sleeve released and thus the locking element or the coupling shaft through the Force of the compression spring is moved back in the direction of the locking disc, so that the example executed as a square polygon enters the recess of the locking disc and fixes the relevant position of the rotatable part of the armrest.
- the blocking element or the coupling shaft may have a bore for receiving a cylindrical pin.
- This cylinder pin allows a partial penetration of the polygon of the coupling shaft, which is designed as a square, for example, into the recess of the locking disk only in a predetermined position. In this position, in which the cylinder pin can penetrate into a correspondingly executed recess of the locking disk, the polygon penetrates almost completely into the recess of the locking disk.
- This arrangement causes only in this one position, in which the blocking element is moved completely in the direction of the locking disk, the locking pin from the bore of the chair-side pivot bearing element emerges. Only in this one position of the rotatable part of the armrest relative to the pivotal part of the armrest thus pivoting of the pivotable part of the armrest relative to the chair is possible.
- the described components can also be designed so that a pivoting of the pivotable part of the armrest relative to the chair in a plurality of predetermined positions of the rotatable part of the armrest relative to the pivotable part of the armrest is possible. It is also understood that not only four, but also almost any other number of predetermined positions of the rotatable part of the armrests relative to the pivotable part of the armrest are possible. For example, if six defined positions are provided, the polygon is designed accordingly as a hexagon.
- two corresponding recesses could be formed in the locking disk, so that in two predetermined positions of the hexagon running in this case, the full-length completely into the recess of the locking disk, which would be executed in this case according to the hexagon, penetrate, which thereby would allow two recesses would be formed in the end face of the locking disk, so that the cylinder pin can penetrate into two positions in the respective wells.
- Fig. 8 shows a chair-side pivot bearing member 100 that can be attached with a recess 101 on a tubular chair element (not shown). It is understood that a functionally identical element can be attached directly to a chair.
- vertical and horizontal refer to a conventional position of a chair on a horizontal floor.
- the chair-side pivot bearing member 100 cooperates with a armrest-side bearing housing 200, which in the FIGS. 12 and 13 is shown.
- the armrest-side bearing housing 200 is attached to a first end of a pivotable part 2 of the armrest.
- the pivotable part 2 of the armrest is substantially tubular and has a slot 2a (see, eg Fig. 6 ).
- a compression spring 3 and a coupling shaft 7 are inserted in the tube interior of the pivotable part 2, a compression spring 3 and a coupling shaft 7 are inserted.
- the coupling shaft 7 (see Fig. 11 ) has a bore 73 through which an actuating pin 8 can be guided, which is held by a screwed into a threaded bore 74 of the coupling shaft 7 threaded pin 10.
- the coupling shaft 7 further has a locking pin 75, which is insertable into a bore 102 of the chair-side pivot bearing element 100, and a guide pin 76 which is in engagement with a guide 21 of
- the locking disk 20 ( Fig. 10 ) is fixedly connected to a rotatable part 40 of the armrest.
- the rotatable part 40 of the armrest is in Fig. 14 shown as a component which consists of a bent pipe section and two adjoining straight pipe sections. This component may be surrounded by a foam shell 5, as in the Fig. 1 to 6 shown. It is understood that the rotatable part can also consist of any other component which is rotatable relative to the pivotable part 2 and depending on the intended use corresponding attachments.
- a reinforcing sleeve 6 On the pivotable part 2, a reinforcing sleeve 6 is attached, which has two slots 2a of the pivotable part 2 corresponding slots 6a.
- a protective sleeve 4 On the reinforcing sleeve 6, a protective sleeve 4 is slidably disposed.
- the protective sleeve 4 has two holes 4a, which are provided for receiving the actuating bolt 8.
- the actuating bolt 8 connects the protective sleeve 4 with the coupling shaft 7, so that the coupling shaft 7 can be moved from the outside by means of the protective sleeve 4 within the pivotable part 2 within the limits of the slots 2a and 6a.
- the rotatable member 40 has a right angle angled extension part 41 which extends perpendicular to the rotation axis of the rotatable member 40.
- the recess 22 of the locking disc 20 for receiving the square 71 of the coupling shaft 7 is arranged with respect to the rotatable member 40 so that two longitudinal sides of the recess 22 substantially square with rounded corners extend in the direction of the extension 41.
- the coupling shaft 7 is in connection with the actuating pin 8 and the slots 2a and 6a with respect to the position of the square 71 to the pivotal part 2 and thus fixedly arranged on the dm pivotable part 2, for example, welded armrests side layer housing 2 also in terms of the chair side Swivel bearing element 100 extending pivot axis set.
- the coupling shaft 7 can thus axially within the pivotable part 2 only over a certain range moved but not twisted.
- the end points of the axial displacement are determined via the actuating pin 8 by the dimensions of the slots 2a and 6a.
- the square 71 of the coupling shaft 7 is outside the recess 22 of the locking disk 20.
- the rotatable member 40 can thus be rotated relative to the pivotable member 20, so that the bent end 41 and the outer end 52 (FIGS. Fig. 1 ) can be pivoted.
- the locking pin 75 extends into the bore 102 of the chair-side pivot bearing element 100. A pivoting of the pivotable part of a chair (not shown) upwards is thus in this position the coupling shaft 7 not possible.
- the rotatable member 40 can be fixed in four defined rotational positions, each achieved by a rotation of 90 degrees. In three of these positions, the coupling shaft 7 with the square 71 does not penetrate completely into the recess 22 of the locking disk 2, since the cylinder pin 9 abuts against the end face 23 of the locking disk. Such a position of the coupling shaft 7 is in Fig. 19 shown. In such a position, the square 71 of the coupling shaft 7 is partially inserted into the recess 22 of the locking disk 20 and the locking pin 75 is partially inserted into the bore 102 of the chair-side pivot bearing member 100. This means that both a rotation of the rotatable part 40 and a pivoting of the pivotable part 2 is not possible.
- the arrangement is chosen so that this position corresponds to a position of the angled portion 41, which can not lead to a risk of injury of a person sitting in the chair person, for example, in the case of a pivoting of the armrest Fig. 1 shown position.
Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine schwenkbare Lehne für einen Stuhl sowie einen Stuhl mit schwenkbarer Armlehne, insbesondere einen Krankenstuhl, beispielsweise einen Duschrollstuhl, wie er unter der Produktbezeichnung Flexo von der Firma Invacare bekannt ist.The invention relates to a pivotable backrest for a chair and a chair with swivel armrest, in particular a hospital chair, for example a shower wheelchair, as it is known under the product name Flexo by the company Invacare.
Armlehnen sind naturgemäß an den Seiten eines Stuhls befestigt. Die vorderen Enden derartiger Armlehnen sind insbesondere bei Krankenstühlen oftmals nach innen gebogen, um sicherzustellen, dass die in dem Stuhl sitzende Person nicht nach vorne hinaus fallen kann. Auch bei im Wesentlichen gerade ausgeführten Armlehnen sind mitunter zur Mitte des Stuhls hin sich erstreckende Anbauteile vorgesehen, beispielsweise Schreibauflagen bei Schulstühlen oder Stühlen für Vorlesungsräume.Armrests are naturally attached to the sides of a chair. The front ends of such armrests are often inwardly bent, particularly in sick chairs, to ensure that the person sitting in the chair can not fall forward. Even with substantially straight running armrests are sometimes provided to the center of the chair extending attachments, such as writing pads in school chairs or chairs for lecture halls.
Um den Zugang zu derartigen Stühlen zu erleichtern sind Lehnen der in Rede stehenden Art verschwenkbar angeordnet. Insbesondere können sie in im Wesentlichen senkrechter Richtung gegenüber dem Stuhl verschwenkt werden. Hierzu verfügt die Armlehne über einen schwenkbaren Teil, der an dem Stuhl verschwenkbar angelenkt ist, vorzugsweise in im Wesentlichen senkrechter Richtung, so dass ein Hochklappen der Armlehne ermöglicht wird. Ein derartiger Stuhl ist beispielsweise aus der
Ein von der Armlehne zur Stuhlmitte hin sich erstreckendes Ende beziehungsweise ein entsprechendes Anbauteil, beispielsweise in Form einer Buchauflage, können bei derartigen Stühlen ebenfalls oftmals hochgeklappt werden. Hierzu ist an dem schwenkbaren Teil der Armlehne ein drehbarer Teil angeordnet, der gegenüber dem schwenkbaren Teil verdrehbar ist. Dieser drehbare Teil kann beispielsweise ein gebogenes Ende der Armlehne selbst oder aber ein weiteres Bauelement sein, an dem ein sich zur Stuhlmitte hin erstreckendes Bauteil befestigt ist. Wird nun dieser drehbare Teil der Armlehne gegenüber dem schwenkbaren Teil verdreht, verschwenkt der sich zur Mitte hin erstreckende Teil der Armlehne beziehungsweise das diesbezügliche Anbauteil ebenfalls, vorzugsweise nach oben, um somit ebenfalls den Zugang zu dem Stuhl zu erleichtern.An end extending from the armrest towards the middle of the chair or a corresponding attachment, for example in the form of a book rest, can likewise often be folded up in the case of such chairs. This is on the pivoting part of the armrest arranged rotatable part which is rotatable relative to the pivotable part. This rotatable part can for example be a bent end of the armrest itself or else another component to which a component extending towards the center of the chair is attached. If now this rotatable part of the armrest is rotated relative to the pivotable part, the part of the armrest extending towards the middle or the relevant attachment part likewise pivots, preferably upwards, in order thus likewise to facilitate access to the chair.
Bei Stühlen der in Rede stehenden Art besteht das Problem, dass ein Verschwenken des schwenkbaren Teils dann, wenn der drehbare Teil sich in einer Stellung befindet, in der das sich zur Stuhlmitte hin erstreckende Bauteil sich zur Stuhlmitte hin erstreckt und nicht nach oben oder außen geklappt ist, beim Hochschwenken der Armlehne in dem Bereich des Kopfes, insbesondere des Gesichtes der im Stuhl sitzenden Person gelangen kann. Dies kann, insbesondere bei Kranken und alten Personen und somit insbesondere bei Krankenstühlen zu Verletzungen führen.In chairs of the type in question, there is the problem that a pivoting of the pivotal part, when the rotatable part is in a position in which extending towards the chair center component extends towards the chair center and not folded up or out is, when swinging the armrest in the area of the head, in particular the face of the person sitting in the chair can get. This can lead to injuries, in particular in the case of sick and old persons and thus in particular in hospitals.
Ein derartiger Stuhl mit einer Armlehne und einer Vorrichtung zur Lagerung eines Tischchens an der Armlehne ist in der
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Armlehne der in Rede stehenden Art beziehungsweise einen derartigen Stuhl so auszuführen, dass Verletzungen beim Betätigen der Armlehne vermieden werden.The invention has for its object to perform an armrest of the type in question or such a chair so that injury when operating the armrest can be avoided.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch eine Armlehne gemäß Patentanspruch 1 sowie einen Stuhl gemäß Patentanspruch 10 gelöst.This object is achieved by an armrest according to
Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben.Advantageous embodiments of the invention are specified in the subclaims.
Die erfindungsgemäße Armlehne ist an einem Stuhl, beispielsweise einem Krankenstuhl, verschwenkbar befestigt. Sie weist einen gegenüber dem Stuhl schwenkbaren Teil und einen drehbaren Teil auf, der gegenüber dem schwenkbaren Teil verdrehbar ist. Zur schwenkbaren Lagerung des schwenkbaren Teils an dem Stuhl ist ein Lagerelement vorgesehen.The armrest according to the invention is attached to a chair, such as a hospital chair, pivotally mounted. It has a relative to the chair pivotable part and a rotatable part which is rotatable relative to the pivotable part. For pivotal mounting of the pivotable part of the chair, a bearing element is provided.
Die erfindungsgemäße schwenkbare Armlehne weist ein Sperrelement auf, dass so ausgelegt ist, dass der schwenkbare Teil der Armlehne nur dann gegenüber dem Stuhl verschwenkbar ist, wenn der drehbare Teil der Armlehne gegenüber dem schwenkbaren Teil eine definierte vorbestimmte Stellung einnimmt. Eine derartige definierte vorbestimmte Stellung ist insbesondere eine solche Stellung, in der beim vertikalen Hochschwenken des schwenkbaren Teils der drehbare Teil nicht eine Stellung einnimmt, die eine im Stuhl sitzende Person gefährden oder verletzen könnte.The pivotable armrest according to the invention has a locking element that is designed so that the pivotable part of the armrest is pivotable relative to the chair only when the rotatable part of the armrest with respect to the pivotable part assumes a defined predetermined position. Such a defined predetermined position is in particular such a position in which does not occupy a position during vertical pivoting of the pivotable part of the rotatable part, which could endanger or injure a person sitting in the chair.
Das Sperrelement weist einen Sperrzapfen auf, der in einer ein Verschwenken verhindernden Sperrstellung in eine Bohrung eines stuhlseitigen Schwenklagerelements hinein ragt.The blocking element has a locking pin which protrudes into a bore of a chair-side pivot bearing element in a pivoting preventing blocking position.
Als Sperrelement ist vorzugsweise eine Kupplungswelle mit einem Vielkant vorgesehen. In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist dieser Vielkant als Vierkant ausgeführt. Der Vielkant, beispielsweise als Vierkant ausgeführt, wirkt mit einer entsprechend ausgeführten Ausnehmung einer Rastscheibe zusammen. Die Anzahl der Kanten bestimmt somit die Anzahl der Stellungen, in denen der drehbare Teil der Armlehne fixiert werden kann. Bei einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung mit einem als Vierkant ausgeführten Vielkant kann der drehbare Teil der Armlehne somit gegenüber dem schwenkbaren Teil vier definierte Stellungen einnehmen. Vorzugsweise ist ein Verschwenken des schwenkbaren Teils der Armlehne nur bei einer dieser vier Stellungen des drehbaren Teils möglich.As a blocking element, a coupling shaft is preferably provided with a polygon. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, this polygon is designed as a square. The polygon, designed for example as a square, cooperates with a correspondingly executed recess of a locking disk. The number of edges thus determines the number of positions in which the rotatable part of the armrest can be fixed. In a preferred embodiment of the invention with a polygon designed as a square, the rotatable part of the armrest can thus occupy four defined positions relative to the pivotable part. Preferably, pivoting of the pivotable part of the armrest is only possible in one of these four positions of the rotatable part.
Der drehbare Teil der Armlehne ist vorzugsweise fest mit der Rastscheibe verbunden.The rotatable part of the armrest is preferably fixedly connected to the locking disk.
Das Sperrelement weist einen Sperrzapfen auf, der in einer ein Verschwenken verhindernden Sperrstellung in eine Bohrung eines stuhlseitigen Schwenklagerelements hineinragt. Ein derartiges stuhlseitiges Schwenklagerelement kann bei einer erfindungsgemäßen Armlehne, die als separat handelbare Ware ausgeführt ist, zur Befestigung an einem beliebigen Stuhl ausgeführt sein. Bei einem Stuhl, der speziell zur Aufnahme der erfindungsgemäßen Armlehne ausgeführt ist, kann ein derartiges stuhlseitiges Schwenklagerelement bereits fest angeordnet sein.The blocking element has a locking pin, which protrudes into a bore of a chair-side pivot bearing element in a pivoting preventing blocking position. Such a chair-side pivot bearing element may be executed in an armrest according to the invention, which is designed as a separately tradable goods, for attachment to any chair. In a chair, especially for receiving the armrest according to the invention is executed, such a chair-side pivot bearing element may already be fixed.
Das Sperrelement, beispielsweise als Kupplungswelle ausgeführt, kann innerhalb des schwenkbaren Teils der Armlehne verschiebbar gelagert und mittels einer Druckfeder in Richtung auf die Rastscheibe vorgespannt sein. Das Verschieben des Sperrelements beziehungsweise der Kupplungswelle kann über eine äußere Schutztülle erfolgen. Durch Betätigen der von außen zugänglichen Schutzhülle kann das Sperrelement beziehungsweise die Kupplungswelle entgegen der Kraft der Druckfeder bewegt werden, so dass der beispielsweise als Vierkant ausgeführte Vielkant aus der Ausnehmung der Rastscheibe heraustritt. Der mit der Rastscheibe fest verbundene drehbare Teil der Armlehne kann in dieser Stellung des Sperrelements verdreht werden und, sobald er eine der vordefinierten möglichen Stellungen erreicht hat, in dieser Stellung fixiert werden, indem die äußere Schutztülle losgelassen und somit das Sperrelement beziehungsweise die Kupplungswelle durch die Kraft der Druckfeder wieder in Richtung auf die Rastscheibe verschoben wird, so dass der beispielsweise als Vierkant ausgeführte Vielkant in die Ausnehmung der Rastscheibe eintritt und die diesbezügliche Stellung des drehbaren Teils der Armlehne fixiert.The blocking element, embodied for example as a coupling shaft, can be displaceably mounted within the pivotable part of the armrest and be biased by means of a compression spring in the direction of the locking disk. The displacement of the locking element or the coupling shaft can take place via an outer protective sleeve. By pressing the externally accessible protective cover, the blocking element or the coupling shaft can be moved counter to the force of the compression spring, so that the example executed as a square polygon emerges from the recess of the locking disc. The fixedly connected to the locking disk rotatable part of the armrest can be rotated in this position of the locking element and, once he has reached one of the predefined possible positions are fixed in this position by the outer protective sleeve released and thus the locking element or the coupling shaft through the Force of the compression spring is moved back in the direction of the locking disc, so that the example executed as a square polygon enters the recess of the locking disc and fixes the relevant position of the rotatable part of the armrest.
Das Sperrelement beziehungsweise die Kupplungswelle kann eine Bohrung zur Aufnahme eines Zylinderstifts aufweisen. Dieser Zylinderstift erlaubt ein teilweises Eindringen des beispielsweise als Vierkant ausgeführten Vielkants der Kupplungswelle in die Ausnehmung der Rastscheibe lediglich in einer vorbestimmten Stellung. In dieser Stellung, in der der Zylinderstift in eine entsprechend ausgeführte Vertiefung der Rastscheibe eindringen kann, dringt der Vielkant praktisch vollständig in die Ausnehmung der Rastscheibe ein. Diese Anordnung bewirkt, dass lediglich in dieser einen Stellung, in der das Sperrelement ganz in Richtung der Rastscheibe verschoben ist, der Sperrzapfen aus der Bohrung des stuhlseitigen Schwenklagerelements heraustritt. Nur in dieser einen Stellung des drehbaren Teils der Armlehne gegenüber dem schwenkbaren Teil der Armlehne ist somit ein Verschwenken des schwenkbaren Teils der Armlehne gegenüber dem Stuhl möglich.The blocking element or the coupling shaft may have a bore for receiving a cylindrical pin. This cylinder pin allows a partial penetration of the polygon of the coupling shaft, which is designed as a square, for example, into the recess of the locking disk only in a predetermined position. In this position, in which the cylinder pin can penetrate into a correspondingly executed recess of the locking disk, the polygon penetrates almost completely into the recess of the locking disk. This arrangement causes only in this one position, in which the blocking element is moved completely in the direction of the locking disk, the locking pin from the bore of the chair-side pivot bearing element emerges. Only in this one position of the rotatable part of the armrest relative to the pivotal part of the armrest thus pivoting of the pivotable part of the armrest relative to the chair is possible.
Es versteht sich, dass die beschriebenen Bauteile auch so ausgeführt sein können, dass ein Verschwenken des schwenkbaren Teils der Armlehne gegenüber dem Stuhl in mehreren vorbestimmten Stellungen des drehbaren Teils der Armlehne gegenüber dem schwenkbaren Teil der Armlehne möglich ist. Es versteht sich zudem, dass nicht nur vier, sondern auch eine nahezu beliebige andere Anzahl von vorbestimmten Stellungen des drehbaren Teils der Armlehnen gegenüber dem schwenkbaren Teil der Armlehne möglich sind. Wenn beispielsweise sechs definierte Stellungen vorgesehen sind, ist der Vielkant entsprechend als Sechskant ausgeführt. In diesem Fall könnten beispielsweise zwei entsprechende Vertiefungen in der Rastscheibe ausgebildet sein, so dass in zwei vorbestimmten Stellungen der in diesem Fall als Sechskant ausgeführte Vielkant vollständig in die Ausnehmung der Rastscheibe, die in diesem Fall entsprechend dem Sechskant ausgeführt wäre, eindringen kann, was dadurch ermöglicht würde, dass zwei Vertiefungen in der Stirnseite der Rastscheibe ausgebildet würden, so dass der Zylinderstift in zwei Stellungen in die jeweiligen Vertiefungen eindringen kann.It is understood that the described components can also be designed so that a pivoting of the pivotable part of the armrest relative to the chair in a plurality of predetermined positions of the rotatable part of the armrest relative to the pivotable part of the armrest is possible. It is also understood that not only four, but also almost any other number of predetermined positions of the rotatable part of the armrests relative to the pivotable part of the armrest are possible. For example, if six defined positions are provided, the polygon is designed accordingly as a hexagon. In this case, for example, two corresponding recesses could be formed in the locking disk, so that in two predetermined positions of the hexagon running in this case, the full-length completely into the recess of the locking disk, which would be executed in this case according to the hexagon, penetrate, which thereby would allow two recesses would be formed in the end face of the locking disk, so that the cylinder pin can penetrate into two positions in the respective wells.

Im Folgenden wird zunächst der Aufbau der schwenkbaren Armlehne beschrieben. Aus Gründen der Einfachheit ist ein Stuhl an dem die Armlehne befestigbar ist, nicht beschrieben.
Die Begriffe senkrecht und waagerecht beziehen sich auf eine übliche Stellung eines Stuhls auf einem waagerechten Boden.The terms vertical and horizontal refer to a conventional position of a chair on a horizontal floor.
Das stuhlseitige Schwenklagerelement 100 wirkt zusammen mit einem armlehnenseitigen Lagergehäuse 200, welches in den
Die Rastscheibe 20 (
Im betriebsfertigen Zustand greift ein Vierkant 71 der Kupplungswelle 7 in eine entsprechend ausgeführte Ausnehmung 22 der Rastscheibe 20 ein, wobei die Kupplungswelle 7 durch die Druckfeder 3 vorgespannt ist.In the ready state, a square 71 of the
Auf den schwenkbaren Teil 2 ist eine Verstärkungshülse 6 aufgesteckt, die zwei den Langlöchern 2a des schwenkbaren Teils 2 entsprechende Langlöcher 6a aufweist. Auf der Verstärkungshülse 6 ist verschiebbar eine Schutztülle 4 angeordnet. Die Schutztülle 4 weist zwei Bohrungen 4a auf, die zur Aufnahme des Betätigungsbolzens 8 vorgesehen sind. Der Betätigungsbolzen 8 verbindet die Schutztülle 4 mit der Kupplungswelle 7, so dass die Kupplungswelle 7 von außen mittels der Schutztülle 4 innerhalb des schwenkbaren Teils 2 in den Grenzen der Langlöcher 2a und 6a verschoben werden kann.On the
Der drehbare Teil 40 weist einen rechtwinklig abgewinkelten Verlängerungsteil 41 auf, der sich senkrecht zur Drehachse des drehbaren Teils 40 erstreckt. Die Ausnehmung 22 der Rastscheibe 20 zur Aufnahme des Vierkants 71 der Kupplungswelle 7 ist bezüglich des drehbaren Teils 40 so angeordnet, dass sich zwei Längsseiten der im Wesentlichen quadratisch mit abgerundeten Ecken ausgeführten Ausnehmung 22 in Richtung der Verlängerung 41 erstrecken.The
Die Kupplungswelle 7 ist in Verbindung mit dem Betätigungsbolzen 8 und den Langlöchern 2a und 6a bezüglich der Lage des Vierkants 71 zu dem schwenkbaren Teil 2 und damit über das an dm schwenkbaren Teil 2 fest angeordneten, beispielsweise verschweißten armlehnenseitig Lagegehäuse 2 auch hinsichtlich der durch das stuhlseitige Schwenklagerelement 100 verlaufenden Schwenkachse festgelegt. Die Kupplungswelle 7 kann somit innerhalb des schwenkbaren Teils 2 lediglich über einen bestimmten Bereich axial verschoben, nicht jedoch verdreht werden. Die Endpunkte der axialen Verschiebung werden über den Betätigungsbolzen 8 durch die Abmessungen der Langlöcher 2a und 6a festgelegt. In einer ersten Endstellung, die in den
Der drehbare Teil 40 kann in vier definierten Drehstellungen, die jeweils durch eine Drehung von 90 Grad erreicht werden, fixiert werden. Bei drei dieser Stellungen dringt die Kupplungswelle 7 mit dem Vierkant 71 nicht vollständig in die Ausnehmung 22 der Rastscheibe 2 ein, da der Zylinderstift 9 gegen die Stirnfläche 23 der Rastscheibe anstößt. Eine derartige Stellung der Kupplungswelle 7 ist in
Vorzugsweise wird die Anordnung so gewählt, dass diese Position einer Lage des abgewinkelten Teils 41 entspricht, die bei einem Hochschwenken der Armlehne nicht zu einer Verletzungsgefahr einer in dem Stuhl sitzenden Person führen kann, beispielsweise die in
