Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Beinauflage zur Verbindung mit einem klappbaren Stuhl aus einem Rohrrahmen und einer Bespannung, insbesondere aufweisend mindestens ein Verbindungsstück zur Verbindung von Beinauflage und Stuhl.The present invention relates to a leg rest for connection to a folding chair of a tubular frame and a covering, in particular comprising at least one connecting piece for connecting the leg rest and chair.
Klappbare Stühle aus einem Rohrgestell als Rahmenelement und einer Bespannung werden vor allem als Campingstühle, im Caravanbereich und als leichte Garten- und Terrassenstühle eingesetzt. Um den Sitzkomfort zu erhöhen, ist seit langem bekannt, derartige Stühle mit abnehmbaren Beinauflagen zu versehen. Die Verbindung eines klappbaren Stuhls mit einer Beinauflage erhöht nicht nur den Sitzkomfort, sondern verwandelt den klappbaren Stuhl auch kostengünstig in eine bequeme Liege.Folding chairs made of a tube frame as a frame element and a covering are mainly used as camping chairs, in the caravan area and as a light garden and patio chairs. To increase the comfort, it has long been known to provide such chairs with removable leg rests. The combination of a folding chair with a leg rest not only increases the comfort, but also transforms the folding chair into a comfortable couch.
Bekannte abnehmbare Beinauflagen, wie sie in der
Nachteilig an den bekannten abnehmbaren Beinauflagen ist, dass deren Auflageebene entweder unterhalb der Sitzebene liegt, so dass es zu einer unerwünschten, den Sitzkomfort verringernden Stufung kommt, oder sie nur umständlich angebracht und abgenommen werden können.A disadvantage of the known removable leg rests that their support level is either below the seat level, so that it comes to an undesirable, the seating comfort reducing grading, or they can be attached and removed only cumbersome.
Die vorliegende Erfindung stellt sich daher die Aufgabe, eine einfach zu befestigende Beinauflage anzugeben, die in unterschiedlichen Verbindungslagen, insbesondere sowohl unterhalb als auch in etwa gleicher Ebene zur Sitzfläche eines Klappstuhls angeordnet werden kann.The present invention therefore has as its object to provide an easy-to-attach leg rest, which in different Connection layers, in particular both below and in approximately the same plane to the seat of a folding chair can be arranged.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch eine Beinauflage gelöst, wobei zur Ermöglichung zweier unterschiedlicher Verbindungslagen entweder mindestens zwei zur Verbindungslage gegeneinander auswechselbare, zueinander unterschiedliche Verbindungsstücke vorgesehen sind, wobei die unterschiedlichen Verbindungsstücke jeweils eine erste und eine zweite Verbindungsvorrichtung aufweisen, von denen nur eine identisch zur derjenigen des anderen Verbindungsstücks ausgebildet ist oder dass das mindestens eine Verbindungsstück eine erste Verbindungsvorrichtung zur Verbindung mit der Beinauflage und eine zweite und dritte Verbindungsvorrichtung zur jeweilig ausschließlichen Verbindung mit dem Stuhl aufweist.This object is achieved by a leg rest, which are provided to enable two different connecting layers either at least two mutually exchangeable to connect position mutually different connectors, the different connectors each have a first and a second connection device, of which only one identical to that of the other Connecting piece is formed or that the at least one connecting piece has a first connecting device for connection to the leg rest and a second and third connecting device for respectively exclusive connection with the chair.
Mit großem Vorteil wird es durch die Auswechselbarkeit der unterschiedlichen Verbindungsstücke gegeneinander zur Erzeugung einer jeweiligen Verbindungslage von Beinauflage und Stuhl möglich, die Beinauflage in unterschiedlicher Art und Weise an dem Stuhl zu befestigen, so dass auch unterschiedliche Befestigungshöhen realisierbar sind. Aufgrund der Wechselbarkeit der Verbindungsstücke ist ein schneller und einfacher Umbau der Beinauflage am Stuhl möglich. Weisen die mindestens zwei wechselbaren Verbindungsstücke eine identische Verbindungsvorrichtung auf, so können sie an dieser jeweils schnell und problemlos an der Beinauflage befestigt werden. Die andere, nicht identische Verbindungsvorrichtung der jeweiligen Verbindungsstücke dient erfindungsgemäß dazu, diese in unterschiedlicher Art und Weise am Stuhl zu befestigen. Mit anderen Worten stellt die Erfindung mehrere Sätze von Verbindungsstücken zur Verfügung, die sämtlich eine einheitliche erste Verbindungsvorrichtung und zueinander unterschiedliche zweite Verbindungsvorrichtungen aufweisen. Bei der zweiten Lösung der Aufgabe wird mit großem Vorteil lediglich eine Sorte Verbindungsstücke benötigt, die aufgrund ihrer unterschiedlich ausgebildeten Verbindungsvorrichtungen zur jeweils ausschließlichen Verbindung mit dem Stuhl ebenfalls unterschiedliche Befestigungsmöglichkeiten und - positionen erlauben. In beiden erfindungsgemäßen Lösungen tragen Beinauflage und Verbindungsstück sowie Verbindungsstück und Stuhl jeweils komplementäre Teile der Verbindungsvorrichtungen. Mit anderen Worten kann erfindungsgemäß eine Beinauflage auf zwei unterschiedlichen Wegen an dem Stuhl befestigt werden, wobei sich jeder Weg unterschiedlich realisieren lässt, so dass eine größtmögliche Variabilität erreicht wird.With great advantage, it is possible by the interchangeability of the different connectors against each other to produce a respective connection position of the legrest and chair to attach the legrest in different ways to the chair, so that different mounting heights can be realized. Due to the changeability of the connectors is a faster and easy modification of the leg rest on the chair possible. If the at least two exchangeable connecting pieces have an identical connecting device, then they can be attached to the legrest quickly and easily. The other, non-identical connection device of the respective connectors is used according to the invention to attach them to the chair in different ways. In other words, the invention provides a plurality of sets of connectors, all of which have a unitary first connector and mutually different second connectors. In the second solution of the problem, only a variety of connectors is required with great advantage, which also allow different mounting options and - positions due to their different design connection devices for each exclusive connection with the chair. In both solutions according to the invention, the leg rest and the connecting piece as well as the connecting piece and the chair each carry complementary parts of the connecting devices. In other words, according to the invention, a leg rest can be attached to the chair in two different ways, whereby each path can be realized differently, so that the greatest possible variability is achieved.
In Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass die erste Verbindungsvorrichtung als federbelasteter Rastdorn mit korrespondierender Rastöffnung ausgebildet ist. Dies stellt eine besonders einfache und dennoch robuste, leicht zu bedienende Verbindungsvorrichtung dar, insbesondere dann, wenn der federbelastete Rastdorn im Inneren eines Rohres der Beinauflage eingeordnet ist. Selbstverständlich kann dieser federbelastete Rastdorn erfindungsgemäß auch an der Außenseite eines Rohres der Beinauflage angeordnet sein. In diesem Fall ist erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen, dass die erste Verbindungsvorrichtung aus korrosionsbeständigem Material mit entsprechender Federwirkung besteht.In an embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the first connection device is designed as a spring-loaded locking mandrel with a corresponding latching opening. This is a particularly simple, yet robust, easy-to-use connection device, in particular when the spring-loaded locking pin is arranged inside a tube of the leg rest. Of course, this spring-loaded locking mandrel according to the invention may also be arranged on the outside of a tube of the leg rest. In this case, the invention provides that the first Connecting device made of corrosion-resistant material with appropriate spring action.
Weist das Verbindungsstück eine Hülse auf, in deren Wandung eine Rastöffnung vorgesehen ist, so kann der federbelastete Rastdorn, der an der Beinauflage angeordnet ist, einfach und problemlos in die Hülse eingreifen und so das Verbindungsstück an der Beinauflage sicher und reversibel befestigen. Rastöffnung und Rastdorn sind vorteilhafterweise so angeordnet, dass sie bei montierter Beinauflage in Richtung Erdboden zeigen, so dass sie durch das darüber befindliche Rohr vor eindringender Feuchtigkeit und damit vor Korrosion geschützt sind. Durch diese Orientierung der Rastöffnung kann dennoch eingedrungenes Wasser problemlos ablaufen, so dass eine besonders haltbare Beinauflage resultiert.If the connecting piece has a sleeve, in the wall of which a latching opening is provided, then the spring-loaded latching pin, which is arranged on the legrest, can easily and easily engage in the sleeve and secure the connecting piece securely and reversibly to the legrest. Detent opening and locking arbor are advantageously arranged so that they show with mounted leg rest in the direction of the ground, so that they are protected by the pipe located above it from penetrating moisture and thus from corrosion. This orientation of the detent opening can nevertheless allow water to penetrate easily, resulting in a particularly durable leg rest.
Weist die zweite Verbindungseinrichtung einen Clipsmechanismus auf oder ein Gelenk, dessen eine Gelenkseite zur Verbindung mit dem Verbindungsstück und dessen andere Gelenkseite zur Verbindung mit dem Stuhl vorgesehen sind, so ist mit großem Vorteil die unterschiedliche Anordnung der Beinauflage an dem Stuhl ermöglicht. Die eine Ausführungsform der Verbindungsstücke ermöglicht das Anclipsen der Beinauflage an dem vorderen Querholm des klappbaren Stuhls. Hierzu sind vorzugsweise zwei elastische Clipsschellen vorgesehen. Mit großem Vorteil sieht die Erfindung vor, dass diese Ausführungsform des Verbindungsstückes U-förmig ausgebildet ist, mit zwei ersten Verbindungseinrichtungen und zwei zweiten Verbindungseinrichtungen. In der Variante mit dem Gelenk wird mit großem Vorteil die Anordnung der Beinauflage in derselben Ebene wie die Sitzebene des Stuhls ermöglicht, da das Gelenk einerseits in der Hülse befestigt ist und andererseits in die Rohrkonstruktion des klappbaren Stuhls eingreift. Da Beinauflagen üblicherweise ein klappbares Stützteil in ihrem Endbereich haben, ist aufgrund des Gelenks erfindungsgemäß auch dafür gesorgt, dass unterschiedliche Bodenneigungen durch die erfindungsgemäße Beinauflage ausgeglichen werden. Stuhl und Beinauflage stehen so sicher und stabil, Unfälle werden vermieden.If the second connecting device has a clip mechanism or a joint whose one hinge side is provided for connection to the connecting piece and the other hinge side for connection to the chair, the different arrangement of the legrest on the chair is made possible with great advantage. The one embodiment of the connectors allows the clipping of the leg rest on the front cross member of the folding chair. For this purpose, two elastic clip clamps are preferably provided. With great advantage, the invention provides that this embodiment of the connecting piece is U-shaped, with two first connecting means and two second connecting means. In the variant with the joint, the arrangement of the leg rest in the same plane as the seat plane of the chair is made possible with great advantage, since the joint is fastened on the one hand in the sleeve and on the other hand engages in the tubular construction of the folding chair. Since leg supports usually have a foldable support member in their end, is due to the joint according to the invention also ensured that different floor slopes are compensated by the leg rest according to the invention. Chair and leg rest are so safe and stable, accidents are avoided.
In der zweiten Variante der Verbindungseinrichtung weist diese ebenfalls einen Clipsmechanismus und eine Gelenkverbindung auf, wobei diese Verbindungseinrichtungen gleichzeitig an dem Verbindungsstück vorgesehen sind. Hierdurch ist nur eine einzige Sorte Verbindungsstück erforderlich, die unterschiedliche Art und Weise der Befestigung am Stuhl erfolgt dann durch wechselnde Benutzung entweder der zweiten oder der dritten Verbindungseinrichtung des Verbindungsstücks, die beispielsweise starr oder relativ beweglich zur ersten Verbindungseinrichtung angeordnet sein können.In the second variant of the connecting device, this also has a clip mechanism and a hinge connection, wherein these connecting devices are provided simultaneously on the connecting piece. As a result, only a single type of connector is required, the different manner of attachment to the chair then takes place by changing use of either the second or the third connection means of the connector, which may be arranged, for example, rigid or relatively movable to the first connection means.
In Ausgestaltung der Erfindung wird vorgeschlagen, dass die andere Gelenkseite ein Gewinde zur Verbindung mit dem Stuhl aufweist. Dies stellt eine besonders sichere und dauerhafte Verbindung beider Teile dar.In an embodiment of the invention, it is proposed that the other joint side has a thread for connection to the chair. This represents a particularly secure and durable connection between the two parts.
Im Weiteren wird eine Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemäßen Beinauflage anhand der Figuren der Zeichnung erläutert, wobei nur die Ausführungsform mit zwei unterschiedlichen Verbindungsstücken dargestellt ist.Furthermore, an embodiment of the leg rest according to the invention will be explained with reference to the figures of the drawing, wherein only the embodiment is shown with two different connecting pieces.
