Description

L'invention concerne un meuble formant au moins un siège.The invention relates to a piece of furniture forming at least one seat.

Un meuble classique de ce type, par exemple un canapé, comporte une assise, un dossier et éventuellement des accoudoirs. Celui-ci présente généralement une structure et des dimensions prédéfinies. Il n'est donc pas possible de faire varier la longueur ou la forme du meuble en fonction des besoins, de la configuration de la pièce dans laquelle il est installé ou de l'utilisation qui doit en être faite.A classic piece of furniture of this type, for example a sofa, comprises a seat, a backrest and possibly armrests. It usually has a predefined structure and dimensions. It is therefore not possible to vary the length or shape of the furniture as needed, the configuration of the room in which it is installed or the use that must be made.

Afin de remédier à cet inconvénient, le document DE 20 2005 017846 U1 décrit un meuble formant au moins un siège, comportant un premier et un second modules en forme générale de L, présentant chacun une branche courte et une branche longue, le second module étant disposé tête bêche sur le premier module de sorte que la branche longue du second module repose sur celle du premier module, les modules pouvant être déplacés l'un par rapport à l'autre, entre une position écartée dans laquelle la branche longue de l'un des modules est écartée de la branche courte de l'autre des deux modules, et une positon rapprochée de ceux-ci.In order to remedy this drawback, the document DE 20 2005 017846 U1 discloses a furniture forming at least one seat, having a first and a second generally L-shaped modules, each having a short leg and a long leg, the second module being arranged head to tail on the first module so that the long leg of the second module is based on that of the first module, the modules can be moved relative to each other, between a spaced apart position in which the long branch of one of the modules is separated from the short branch of the other of the two modules, and a close positon thereof.

Un tel meuble présente alors plusieurs modules pouvant être disposés suivant des configuration différentes.Such a piece of furniture then has several modules that can be arranged in different configurations.

Toutefois, en position écartées des deux modules en L, un premier espace est formé entre la branche longue du second module et la branche courte du premier module, un second espace étant formé sous le second module, entre la branche courte de celui-ci et la branche longue du premier module.However, in spaced apart position of the two L-shaped modules, a first space is formed between the long branch of the second module and the short branch of the first module, a second space being formed under the second module, between the short branch thereof and the long branch of the first module.

Le premier espace est comblé en rajoutant un troisième module positionné perpendiculairement au premier module. Le second espace reste libre de sorte que la second module est soumis à une flexion importante lorsqu'un utilisateur est assis sur celui-ci. Le second module doit donc être équipé de moyens de renfort permettant d'éviter une déformation du second module.The first space is filled by adding a third module positioned perpendicular to the first module. The second space remains free so that the second module is subjected to significant bending when a user is sitting on it. The second module must therefore be equipped with reinforcement means to prevent deformation of the second module.

Une telle structure est donc complexe et nécessite un renforcement du second module afin de permettre de disposer le meuble suivant différentes configurations.Such a structure is complex and requires a strengthening of the second module to allow the furniture to be arranged in different configurations.

L'invention vise à remédier à ces inconvénients en proposant un meuble modulaire peu complexe, pouvant être disposé suivant différentes configurations sans nécessiter une adaptation spécifique des modules.The invention aims to remedy these drawbacks by proposing a modular furniture of little complexity, which can be arranged in different configurations without requiring a specific adaptation of the modules.

A cet effet, l'invention concerne un meuble formant au moins un siège, comportant un premier et un second modules en forme générale de L, présentant chacun une branche courte et une branche longue, le second module étant disposé tête bêche sur le premier module de sorte que la branche longue du second module repose sur celle du premier module, les modules pouvant être déplacés l'un par rapport à l'autre, entre une position écartée dans laquelle la branche longue de l'un des modules est écartée de la branche courte de l'autre des deux modules, et une positon rapprochée de ceux-ci, caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte un troisième et un quatrième modules, disposés, en position écartée des premier et second modules, entre la branche longue du second module, respectivement du premier module, et la branche courte du premier module, respectivement du second module, et empilés l'un sur l'autre en position rapprochée des premier et second modules, de manière à former un siège distinct.For this purpose, the invention relates to a piece of furniture forming at least one seat, comprising a first and a second generally L-shaped modules, each having a short leg and a long leg, the second module being arranged head to tail on the first module so that the long branch of the second module rests on that of the first module, the modules being movable relative to each other, between a spaced position in which the long branch of one of the modules is separated from the short branch of the other of the two modules, and a close position of them, characterized in that it comprises a third and a fourth modules, arranged, in a position spaced from the first and second modules, between the long branch of the second module, respectively of the first module, and the short branch of the first module, respectively of the second module, and stacked one on the other in the close position of the first and second modules, so as to form a separate seat.

De cette manière, le troisième module permet d'assurer la continuité de l'assise en comblant le premier espace précité, le quatrième module étant disposé à l'intérieur du second espace de manière à reprendre les efforts exercé sur le second module. De cette manière, il n'est pas nécessaire de prévoir de renforcement particulier de celui-ci.In this way, the third module ensures the continuity of the seat by filling the first space above, the fourth module being disposed within the second space so as to take up the forces exerted on the second module. In this way, it is not necessary to provide for special reinforcement thereof.

En outre, les troisième et quatrièmes module sont aptes à former un siège supplémentaire en position rapprochée des premier et second modules en L.In addition, the third and fourth modules are able to form an additional seat in a position close to the first and second L-shaped modules.

Selon une caractéristique de l'invention, les longueurs des branches longues des premier et et second modules en L sont sensiblement égales.According to one characteristic of the invention, the lengths of the long branches of the first and second L-shaped modules are substantially equal.

Avantageusement, la longueur de la branche longue du premier module est environ égale au double de la largueur de la branche longue du second module.Advantageously, the length of the long branch of the first module is approximately equal to twice the width of the long branch of the second module.

Selon une possibilité de l'invention, les troisième et quatrième modules présentent une forme sensiblement carrée, de côté environ égal à la moitié de la branche longue du premier ou du second module en L.According to a possibility of the invention, the third and fourth modules have a substantially square shape, with side approximately equal to half of the long branch of the first or second module L.

Préférentiellement, la branche courte du premier module fait saillie vers le haut au-delà de la branche longue du second module de manière à former un accoudoir.Preferably, the short branch of the first module protrudes upwardly beyond the long branch of the second module so as to form an armrest.

Selon une forme de réalisation de l'invention, un module formant dossier est rattaché au premier et/ou au second modules ou forme partie intégrante de l'un des premier et second modules.According to one embodiment of the invention, a folder module is attached to the first and / or second modules or forms an integral part of one of the first and second modules.

De toute façon, l'invention sera bien comprise à l'aide de la description qui suit en référence au dessin schématique annexé représentant, à titre d'exemple, une forme de réalisation de ce meuble.Anyway, the invention will be better understood from the description which follows with reference to the attached schematic drawing showing, for example, an embodiment of this piece of furniture.

Figure 1 en est une vue en perspective, en position rapprochée des deux modules ; Figure 1 is a perspective view, in close position of the two modules;

Figure 2 est une vue correspondant à la figure 1, en position écartée des deux modules, le second module étant disposé dans le prolongement du premier module ; Figure 2 is a view corresponding to the figure 1 , in the spaced apart position of the two modules, the second module being arranged in the extension of the first module;

Figure 3 est une vue correspondant à la figure 2, le second module étant disposé perpendiculairement au premier module. Figure 3 is a view corresponding to the figure 2 the second module being arranged perpendicularly to the first module.

Un meuble selon l'invention est représenté à la figure 1.A piece of furniture according to the invention is represented at figure 1 .

Celui-ci se présente sous la forme d'un canapé modulaire 1, comportant un premier et un second modules 2, 3 de forme générale de L, présentant chacun une branche courte 4 et une branche longue 5.It is in the form of a modular sofa 1, having a first and a second modules 2, 3 of general L-shape, each having a short branch 4 and a long branch 5.

Le second module est disposé tête bêche sur le premier module de sorte que la branche longue du second module repose sur celle du premier module.The second module is arranged head to tail on the first module so that the long branch of the second module rests on that of the first module.

Les branches longues des deux modules 2, 3 présentent les même dimensions, aussi bien en longueur qu'en largeur.The long branches of the two modules 2, 3 have the same dimensions, both in length and width.

La largeur de chaque branche longue 5 est environ égale à la moitié de sa longueur.The width of each long branch 5 is approximately equal to half of its length.

La longueur de la branche courte 4 du premier module 2 est supérieure à la hauteur de la branche longue 5 du second module 3. De cette manière, la branche courte 4 du premier module 2 fait saillie vers le haut au-delà de la branche longue 5 du second module 3, de manière à former un accoudoir.The length of the short limb 4 of the first module 2 is greater than the height of the long limb 5 of the second module 3. In this way, the short limb 4 of the first module 2 protrudes upwards beyond the long limb 5 of the second module 3, so as to form an armrest.

Selon une autre forme de réalisation de l'invention, la partie faisant saillie vers le haut au-delà de la branche longue 5 du second module 3 est formée par un coussin additionnel rapporté sur l'extrémité de la branche courte 4 du premier module 2. Dans ce cas, les branches courtes 4 des deux modules 2, 3 sont sensiblement de même longueur.According to another embodiment of the invention, the part projecting upwards beyond the long branch 5 of the second module 3 is formed by an additional cushion attached to the end of the short branch 4 of the first module 2 In this case, the short branches 4 of the two modules 2, 3 are of substantially the same length.

Un module 6 formant dossier est en outre rattaché au premier et/ou au second modules 2.A module 6 forming folder is further attached to the first and / or second modules 2.

La figure 1 représente le canapé 1 en position rapprochée des deux modules 2, 3.The figure 1 represents the sofa 1 in the close position of the two modules 2, 3.

Dans cette position, l'extrémité libre de la branche longue 5 de chaque module 2, 3 est en appui contre la branche courte 4 de l'autre module, de sorte qu'aucun espace n'est formé entre les modules 2, 3.In this position, the free end of the long branch 5 of each module 2, 3 bears against the short branch 4 of the other module, so that no space is formed between the modules 2, 3.

Le canapé 1 comporte en outre un siège additionnel 7 distinct du siège formé par les deux premiers modules 2, 3. Le siège additionnel 7 comporte un troisième et un quatrième modules 8, 9, se présentant sous la forme de coussins, empilés l'un sur l'autre ou encore sous la forme d'un coussin apposé sur un socle. Les troisième et quatrième modules 8, 9 présentent une forme générale carrée, de côté sensiblement égal à la moitié de la longueur des branches longues 5 des premier et second modules 2, 3.The sofa 1 further comprises an additional seat 7 separate from the seat formed by the first two modules 2, 3. The additional seat 7 comprises a third and a fourth module 8, 9, in the form of cushions, stacked one on the other or in the form of a cushion affixed to a base. The third and fourth modules 8, 9 have a generally square shape, with a side substantially equal to half the length of the long branches 5 of the first and second modules 2, 3.

Selon une possibilité de l'invention, les troisième et quatrième modules 8, 9 peuvent êrtre fixés de manière amovible par tous moyens appropriés.According to a possibility of the invention, the third and fourth modules 8, 9 can be fixed in a removable manner by any appropriate means.

Comme cela est représenté à la figure 2, les premier et second modules 2, 3 peuvent être écartés l'un de l'autre de manière à augmenter la longueur du canapé 1.As shown in figure 2 , the first and second modules 2, 3 can be spaced from one another so as to increase the length of the sofa 1.

Dans cette configuration, l'extrémité libre de la branche longue 5 de chaque module est écartée de la branche courte 4 du module lui faisant face, de manière à délimiter un espace.In this configuration, the free end of the long branch 5 of each module is spaced from the short branch 4 of the module facing it, so as to define a space.

Deux espaces sont ainsi formés, l'écartement des premier et second modules 2, 3 étant ajusté de manière à ce que ces espaces soient aptes à accueuillir les troisième et quatrième modules 8, 9.Two spaces are thus formed, the spacing of the first and second modules 2, 3 being adjusted so that these spaces are able to accueuillir third and fourth modules 8, 9.

De cette manière, le troisième module 8 est disposé entre la branche longue 5 du second module 3 et la branche courte 4 du premier module 2, et repose sur la branche longue 5 du premier module 2. La hauteur du troisième module 8 est sensiblement égale à celle de la branche longue 5 du second module 3 de manière à assurer une continuité de surface au niveau du plan de l'assise.In this way, the third module 8 is disposed between the long branch 5 of the second module 3 and the short branch 4 of the first module 2, and rests on the long branch 5 of the first module 2. The height of the third module 8 is substantially equal to that of the long branch 5 of the second module 3 so as to ensure a surface continuity at the plane of the seat.

En outre, le quatrième module 9 est disposé entre la branche longue 5 du premier module 2 et la branche courte 4 du second module 3. De même que précédemment, la hauteur du quatrième module 9 correspond sensiblement à celle de la branche longue 5 du premier module 2 afin de combler l'espace entre les deux modules 2, 3. Ainsi, la branche longue 5 du second module 3 respose à la fois sur celle du premier module 2 et sur le quatrième module 9. Ces derniers sont ainsi aptes à reprendre les efforts lorsqu'un utilisateur est assis sur le canapé 1.In addition, the fourth module 9 is disposed between the long branch 5 of the first module 2 and the short branch 4 of the second module 3. As above, the height of the fourth module 9 corresponds substantially to that of the long branch 5 of the first module 9. module 2 to fill the space between the two modules 2, 3. Thus, the long branch 5 of the second module 3 respects both that of the first module 2 and the fourth module 9. These are thus able to resume efforts when a user is sitting on the couch 1.

Une autre configuration du canapé 1 est représentée à la figure 3.Another configuration of the sofa 1 is shown in the figure 3 .

Dans cette configuration, les modules 2, 3 sont également écartés l'un par rapport à l'autre, c'est-à-dire que la branche longue 5 de l'un des deux modules est écartée de la branche courte 4 de l'autre des deux modules.In this configuration, the modules 2, 3 are also spaced relative to each other, that is to say that the long branch 5 of one of the two modules is spaced from the short branch 4 of the other two modules.

Toutefois, dans cette configuration, le second module 3 n'est plus disposé dans le prolongement du premier module 2 mais est agencé perpendiculairement à celui-ci.However, in this configuration, the second module 3 is no longer disposed in the extension of the first module 2 but is arranged perpendicular thereto.

De même que précédemment, le troisième module 8 est disposé entre la branche longue 5 du second module 3 et la branche du courte 4 du premier moule 2, le quatrième module 9 étant disposé entre la branche longue 5 du premier module 2 et la branche courte 4 du second module 3.As before, the third module 8 is disposed between the long branch 5 of the second module 3 and the short branch 4 of the first mold 2, the fourth module 9 being disposed between the long branch 5 of the first module 2 and the short branch 4 of the second module 3.

Compte tenu des dimensions des différents modules, la face d'extrémité 10 de la branche longue 5 du premier module 2 est sensiblement disposée dans le même plan que la face latérale correspondante 11 de la branche longue 5 du second module 3.Given the dimensions of the various modules, the end face 10 of the long branch 5 of the first module 2 is substantially disposed in the same plane as the corresponding lateral face 11 of the long branch 5 of the second module 3.

On remarque ainsi que l'invention fournit un meuble modulaire peu complexe, pouvant être disposé suivant différentes configurations sans nécessiter une adaptation spécifique des modules.It is thus noted that the invention provides a modular furniture of little complexity, which can be arranged in different configurations without requiring specific adaptation of the modules.

Comme il va de soi l'invention ne se limite pas à la forme de réalisation de ce meuble, décrite ci-dessus à titre d'exemple, mais elle embrasse au contraire toutes les variantes.It goes without saying that the invention is not limited to the embodiment of this piece of furniture, described above as an example, but it encompasses all variants.
