Definitions

  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • the invention provides a plurality of sets of connectors, all of which have a unitary first connector and mutually different second connectors.
  • leg rest and the connecting piece as well as the connecting piece and the chair each carry complementary parts of the connecting devices.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • this spring-loaded locking mandrel according to the invention may also be arranged on the outside of a tube of the leg rest.
  • the invention provides that the first Connecting device made of corrosion-resistant material with appropriate spring action.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • two elastic clip clamps are preferably provided.
  • the invention provides that this embodiment of the connecting piece is U-shaped, with two first connecting means and two second connecting means.
  • 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.
  • this also has a clip mechanism and a hinge connection, wherein these connecting devices are provided simultaneously on the connecting piece.
  • the other joint side has a thread for connection to the chair. This represents a particularly secure and durable connection between the two parts.
  • 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.
  • FIG. 1 shows a leg rest 1 with a folding footrest 17, and two mounted between leg rest 1 and chair 2 in the connecting position Connectors 5.
  • the leg rest like the chair 2, consists of a tubular frame 3 with string 4.
  • Fig. 1 a detail is cut out and emphasized enlarged that illustrates the first connecting device 6 enlarged.
  • a part of the first connecting device 6 is arranged in a sleeve 11, which is part of the connecting piece 5. This part is a detent opening 10.
  • a second part of the first connection device 6 is a spring-loaded detent mandrel 9, which is arranged in the interior of a tube of the tubular frame 3 of the leg rest 1.
  • Rastdorn 9 and locking opening 10 are complementary to each other, wherein the locking pin 9 passes in the locking position through the locking opening 10.
  • the second connecting device 7 is formed in this embodiment by a hinge 13, whose one hinge side 14 is arranged in the sleeve 11. There, this one hinge side 14 is secured by means of a passage screw 18.
  • the second part of the joint 15 terminates in a threaded portion 16 which is screwed into the tubular frame 3 of the folding chair 2.
  • a corrugation of the surface is provided instead of a thread.
  • the joint 13 is a pivot with a degree of freedom, here designed as a hinge joint.
  • the condyle 19 is barrel-shaped, it is at an insertion 21 of the socket 20 with a larger inner diameter inserted into this and after a relative movement of both joint parts 14, 15 to each other in a smaller diameter working position 22 can be brought.
  • This working position 22 of the barrel-shaped condyle rests in two U-shaped receptacles 23, whose respective edge is shown.
  • the joint 13 is made of an injection-molded plastic and allows the leg rest, a certain angle to take the seat of the folding chair and so compensate for example uneven floors.
  • Fig. 2 describes a second embodiment of the connecting piece 5 according to the first alternative of the invention, carrying a clip mechanism 12.
  • the connecting piece 5 is in this case U-shaped, wherein the two free legs 24 of the connecting piece 5 carry the first connecting device 6, which is formed as described above ,
  • the clip mechanism 13 is formed by two Klipsschellen 26, which are arranged by means of a passage screw 18 on the connecting leg 25 of the here one-piece connector 5.
  • This connector 5 consists of a double-curved tube, in particular aluminum tube. The connection between the chair and leg rest takes place in this connection piece on the front transverse spars of the chair, such that the plane of the leg rest 1 is arranged below the seat plane of the chair 2.
