Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Polstermöbel-System, welches einen Bausatz zur Herstellung eines Präsentations-Polstermöbels sowie ein Polstermöbel enthält.The invention relates to a upholstered furniture system, which contains a kit for the production of a presentation upholstered furniture and a upholstered furniture.

Bei einer ersten Art von bekannten Polstermöbeln, wie sie beispielsweise aus der US 2006/0033368 A1 reichen die seitlichen Armlehnen neben der Sitzfläche bis zum Boden und bilden gleichzeitig die Füße des Polstermöbels, oder weisen an der Unterseite der Armlehnen die Füße auf, mit denen das Polstermöbel auf dem Untergrund aufsteht. Bei dem Polstermöbel der US 2006/0033368 A1 sind unterschiedliche Armlehnengestaltungen vorgesehen, wobei jeweils wahlweise eine dieser unterschiedlichen Armlehnen an der Sitzfläche befestigbar ist. Dabei ist wesentlich, dass eine Armlehne wahlweise rechts- oder linksseitig an die Sitzfläche anschließen können, und dass unterschiedliche Armlehnen an unterschiedliche Sitzflächen anschließen können, so dass ein Möbelhändler Lagerraum einspart und beim Transport mehrerer zerlegter Polstermöbel der verfügbare Transportraum optimal genutzt werden kann.In a first type of known upholstered furniture, as for example from the US 2006/0033368 A1 The side armrests extend to the floor next to the seat and at the same time form the feet of the upholstered furniture or, on the underside of the armrests, have the feet with which the upholstered furniture stands on the ground. In the upholstery of the US 2006/0033368 A1 Different armrest designs are provided, in each case optionally one of these different armrests on the seat surface can be fastened. It is essential that an armrest can optionally connect to the right or left side of the seat, and that different armrests can connect to different seats, so that saves a furniture retailer storage space and can be optimally used in the transport of several disassembled upholstered furniture available transport space.

Bei einer zweiten Art von bekannten Polstermöbeln hingegen, wie sie beispielsweise aus der CN 2 845 583 Y bekannt ist, ist eine Sockelfläche vorgesehen, die entweder direkt auf dem Untergrund aufsteht, oder an welcher die Füße des Polstermöbels angeordnet sind, die dann ihrerseits auf dem Untergrund aufstehen. Jedenfalls ist dabei vorgesehen, dass sowohl die Sitzfläche als auch eine Lehne, beispielsweise eine Armlehne, auf der Sockelfläche angeordnet sind, wobei die Armlehnen lösbar mittels Schrauben an der Sockelfläche befestigt sind.In a second type of known upholstered furniture, however, as for example from the CN 2 845 583 Y is known, a base surface is provided which either stands up directly on the ground, or on which the feet of the upholstered furniture are arranged, which in turn stand up on the ground. In any case, it is provided that both the seat and a back, for example, an armrest, are arranged on the base surface, wherein the armrests are releasably secured by screws to the base surface.

Aus der JP 2003-70589 A ist ein Polstermöbel mit einer Sockelfläche bekannt, auf der seitlich neben der Sitzfläche ungepolsterte Ablage- oder Arbeitsflächen oder Schubladenkästen lösbar befestigt werden können.From the JP 2003-70589 A is a upholstered furniture with a base surface known on the side next to the seat unpadded storage or work surfaces or drawer boxes can be releasably attached.

Aus der US 4 077 666 A ist ein Polstermöbel bekannt, welches nicht eine einzelne, durchgängige Sockelplatte aufweist, sondern einen modularen Verbund von Sockel-Elementen. Dabei sind nicht die Armlehnen des Polstermöbels auswechselbar, sondern die Rückenlehnen, denn auf die Sockelelemente können Sitzflächenelemente mit entweder voller Sitztiefe oder mit verkürzter Sitztiefe montiert werden, und an die verkürzten Elemente kann hinten ein Lehnenbauteil anschließen, welches über die Sitzfläche hinaus nach oben ragt. Die Ausgestaltung unterschiedlicher Lehnenelemente ist dabei allerdings nicht angesprochen.From the US 4 077 666 A a upholstered furniture is known, which does not have a single, continuous base plate, but a modular composite of pedestal elements. In this case, not the armrests of the upholstered furniture are replaceable, but the backrests, because the base elements seat elements with either full seat depth or shortened seat depth can be mounted, and the shortened elements can connect behind a backrest component, which projects beyond the seat upwards. However, the design of different backrest elements is not addressed.

Aus der WO 2009/031875 A1 ist eine Wohnlandschaft bekannt, die teils Möbel, teils Spielzeug sein soll und insbesondere für Kinder bestimmt ist. Bauteile, die als Lehnen, insbesondere als seitliche Armlehnen, bezeichnet werden könnten, sind stets gleich ausgestaltet. Sie sind lösbar mit dem übrigen Möbel verbunden und ruhen auf einer Sockelfläche auf.From the WO 2009/031875 A1 is a residential landscape known, which is partly furniture, partly toys and is intended especially for children. Components that could be called backrest, especially as side armrests, are always the same design. They are detachably connected to the rest of the furniture and rest on a base surface.

Aus der US 5 601 340 A ist ein Polstermöbel bekannt, bei dem die Armlehnen und die Rückenlehne auf einer Sockelplatte aufstehen und auf konische Zapfen der Sockelplatte aufgesteckt werden können, so dass eine lösbare Verbindung der Lehnen mit dem übrigen Möbel geschaffen wird.From the US 5 601 340 A a upholstered furniture is known in which the armrests and the backrest stand up on a base plate and can be plugged onto conical pins of the base plate, so that a releasable connection of the backrest is created with the rest of the furniture.

Aus der DE 200 03 704 U1 ist ein Polstermöbel bekannt, bei dem ein Lehnenteil lösbar, nämlich mittels einer Schiebeführung, mit einem Grundkörper verbunden ist.From the DE 200 03 704 U1 a upholstered furniture is known in which a backrest part releasably, namely by means of a sliding guide, is connected to a base body.

Für die Kunden sind üblicherweise mehrere unterschiedliche Ausgestaltungen der Polstermöbel verfügbar. Beispielsweise können dies bei ansonsten gleichem Grundaufbau des Polstermöbels Varianten sein, die sich hinsichtlich der Lehnen-Ausgestaltung unterscheiden. So ist es beispielsweise bekannt, Armlehnen mit einer geradlinig oder schräg oder kurvig verlaufenden Oberseite zur Wahl zu stellen. Oder es können Armlehnen zur Wahl stehen, die einen klappbaren Abschnitt aufweisen, um wahlweise auch als Kopfstütze zu dienen, wenn beispielsweise das Polstermöbel entsprechend breit ausgestaltet ist, so dass es eine längs auf dem Polstermöbel liegende Person aufnehmen kann, wie dies beispielsweise bei Sofas der Fall ist.For the customer usually several different configurations of upholstered furniture are available. For example, this may be in otherwise the same basic structure of the upholstered furniture variants that differ with respect to the backrest design. So it is known, for example, to provide armrests with a straight or oblique or curvy top to choose from. Or there may be a choice of armrests, which have a hinged portion to optionally serve as a headrest, for example, if the upholstered furniture is designed to be wide accordingly, so that it can accommodate a person lying longitudinally on the upholstery, as for example in sofas of Case is.

Problematisch ist der erhebliche Platzbedarf in den Ausstellungs- bzw. Präsentationsräumen, in denen die unterschiedlichen Varianten des Polstermöbels der Kundschaft vorgeführt werden sollen. Dabei ist es wünschenswert, die unterschiedlichen Gestaltungen der Armlehnen nicht nur anhand eines Möbelkatalogs demonstrieren zu können, sondern tatsächlich durch praktische Benutzung im Verkaufsraum für den Kunden erfahrbar zu machen. Die Eignung unterschiedlicher Armlehnengestaltungen für den jeweiligen Kunden hängt nämlich beispielsweise nicht nur vom individuellen ästhetischen Geschmack des Kunden ab, sondern beispielsweise auch von der Körpergröße oder dem Gewicht des Kunden - und dementsprechend der Einsinktiefe in die Sitzfläche - so dass die optimale Konfiguration des Polstermöbels nur durch das praktische Ausprobieren der unterschiedlichen Varianten möglich ist.The problem is the considerable space required in the exhibition or presentation rooms, in which the different variants of the upholstered furniture of the clientele to be demonstrated. It is desirable to be able to demonstrate the different designs of the armrests not only on the basis of a furniture catalog, but actually make it practical experience in the showroom for the customer to experience. For example, the suitability of different armrest designs for each customer depends not only on the individual aesthetic taste of the customer, but also, for example, on the size or weight of the customer - and accordingly the sinking depth in the seat - so that the optimal configuration of the upholstered furniture only by The practical testing of the different variants is possible.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein gattungsgemäßes Polstermöbel dahingehend zu verbessern, dass dieses auf möglichst wirtschaftliche Weise eine Auswahl unter den unterschiedlichen Gestaltungsvarianten des Polstermöbels ermöglicht.The invention has for its object to improve a generic upholstered furniture to the effect that this allows the most economical way a choice among the different design variants of the upholstered furniture.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch ein Polstermöbel-System mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Das vorschlagsgemäße Polstermöbel-System umfasst daher erstens ein Polstermöbel mit auswechselbaren Lehnen, welches als "Präsentations-Polstermöbel" bezeichnet ist, da es für die Verwendung in den Präsentationsräumen des Möbelhandels vorgesehen ist und nicht die spätere, tatsächlich an den Kunden ausgelieferte Ausgestaltung des Möbels darstellt. Dieses Präsentations-Polstermöbel kann aus einem Bausatz zusammengestellt werden, der mehrere unterschiedlich ausgestaltete Lehnen umfasst. Zweitens weist das vorschlagsgemäße Polstermöbel-System ein Polstermöbel auf, welches der vom Kunden ausgewählten Konfiguration entspricht, allerdings mit fest montierter Lehne ausgestaltet ist, so dass die gewünschte Stabilität des Polstermöbels für die praktische Benutzung über lange Zeit sichergestellt ist.This object is achieved by a upholstered furniture system having the features of claim 1. The proposed Upholstered furniture system therefore firstly comprises a upholstered furniture with interchangeable backrests, which is referred to as "presentation upholstered furniture", since it is intended for use in the showrooms of the furniture trade and does not represent the later, actually delivered to the customer design of the furniture. This presentation upholstered furniture can be assembled from a kit that includes several differently designed backrests. Secondly, the proposed upholstered furniture system has upholstered furniture which conforms to the configuration selected by the customer but is designed with a fixed backrest so as to ensure the desired stability of the upholstered furniture for practical use over a long period of time.

Im Unterschied zu beispielsweise zerlegbaren und transportablen Polstermöbeln, die beispielsweise für den Zusammenbau beim Kunden vorgesehen sind, ist bei dem Präsentations-Polstermöbel des vorschlagsgemäßen Polstermöbel-Systems nicht nur vorgesehen, dass eine Lehne überhaupt demontierbar am Möbel vorgesehen ist, sondern dass insbesondere mehrere, unterschiedlich ausgestaltete Lehnen vorgesehen sind, denn das vorschlagsgemäß ausgestaltete Präsentationsmöbel ist ja nicht in erster Linie für den Verkauf an einen Kunden gedacht, sondern als Präsentations-Polstermöbel für die Verwendung in den Ausstellungsräumen des Möbelhandels, so dass das vorschlagsgemäße Präsentationsmöbel mehr Lehnen aufweist als gleichzeitig am Präsentations-Polstermöbel montiert werden können. Somit kann durch Demontage der einen Lehne und Montage einer dazu unterschiedlichen Lehne das grundsätzlich gleiche Präsentations-Polstermöbel zu einer Vielzahl unterschiedlich ausgestalteter Polstermöbel konfiguriert werden, so dass mit dem Platzbedarf nur eines Präsentations-Polstermöbels mehrere unterschiedliche Polstermöbel präsentiert werden können.In contrast to, for example, collapsible and transportable upholstered furniture, which are provided for example for assembly at the customer, the presentation upholstered furniture of the proposed upholstered furniture system is not only intended that a back is provided at all removable furniture, but that in particular several, different designed recliners are provided, because the proposed designed presentation furniture is not intended primarily for sale to a customer, but as a display upholstered furniture for use in the showrooms of the furniture trade, so that the proposed presentation furniture has more backrest than at the same presentation Upholstered furniture can be mounted. Thus, by dismantling the one backrest and mounting a different back to the basically same presentation upholstered furniture can be configured to a variety of differently designed upholstered furniture, so that with the space requirements of only a display upholstered furniture several different upholstered furniture can be presented.

Die Erfindung schlägt mit anderen Worten vor, die unterschiedlich konfigurierbare Lehne als von dem übrigen Präsentations-Polstermöbel separates Bauteil auszugestalten und korrespondierende, also miteinander zusammenwirkende Befestigungsmittel einerseits an der Lehne und andererseits am übrigen Präsentations-Polstermöbel vorzusehen, so dass das Präsentations-Polstermöbel vervollständigt werden kann, indem die Lehne lösbar an dem übrigen Präsentations-Polstermöbel festgelegt wird.In other words, the invention proposes to configure the differently configurable backrest as a separate component from the rest of the presentation upholstered furniture and to provide corresponding fastening means cooperating with one another on the backrest and on the other presentation upholstered furniture so that the presentation upholstered furniture is completed can be solved by the backrest is detachably fixed to the rest of the presentation upholstered furniture.

Es ergibt sich also eine provisorische, nämlich wieder lösbare, Montage der Lehne. Dadurch wird ermöglicht, bei einem grundsätzlich stets gleichen Präsentations-Polstermöbel, welches im Rahmen des vorliegenden Vorschlags als das "übrige Polstermöbel" bezeichnet wird, unterschiedliche Lehnentypen zu montieren bzw. zu demontieren. So können die tatsächlichen Sitzverhältnisse mehrerer unterschiedlicher Polstermöbel, nämlich mit unterschiedlich ausgestalteten Lehnen, mit nur dem geringen Platzbedarf demonstriert werden, den ein einziges Polstermöbel erfordert, indem nämlich die entsprechend unterschiedlichen Lehnenvarianten nach Kundenwunsch montiert bzw. demontiert werden.This results in a provisional, namely detachable, mounting the backrest. This makes it possible to assemble or disassemble different types of braces in a basically always the same presentation upholstered furniture, which is referred to in the present proposal as the "rest of upholstered furniture". Thus, the actual sitting conditions of several different upholstered furniture, namely with differently designed backrests, can be demonstrated with only the small footprint required by a single upholstered furniture, namely by the correspondingly different backrest variants are assembled or disassembled according to customer requirements.

Der Begriff der "Lehne" rührt von der Funktion des entsprechenden Möbelteils her, einen Körperteil des Benutzers abzustützen, so dass sich der Benutzer dementsprechend an die Lehne anlehnen kann, beispielsweise an eine Armlehne oder ein Rückenlehne. Vorschlagsgemäß kann allerdings von dieser StützFunktion abgewichen werden, indem die "Lehne" beispielsweise als Barfach ausgestaltet ist, ein ausklappbares bzw. ausfahrbares TV-Gerät enthält oder dergleichen. Der vorschlagsgemäße Vorteil der für Demonstrationszwecke schnell auswechselbaren Lehne bleibt dabei voll und ganz erhalten: auch bei derartigen Lehnen, die nicht in erster Linie als Körperstütze dienen, können auf einfache und schnelle Weise unterschiedliche Ausgestaltungen des Präsentations-Polstermöbels präsentiert und miteinander verglichen werden, ohne dass der Platzbedarf all dieser unterschiedlichen Polstermöbel in dem Ausstellungsraum besteht, sondern nur der Platzbedarf eines einzigen Präsentations-Polstermöbels.The term "backrest" stems from the function of the corresponding furniture part to support a body part of the user, so that the user can lean against the backrest accordingly, for example to an armrest or a backrest. However, according to the proposal can be deviated from this support function by the "backrest" is designed for example as a bar, contains a fold-out or retractable TV set or the like. The proposed advantage of quickly replaceable for demonstration purposes backrest remains fully intact: even with such backrests that do not serve primarily as a body support, different embodiments of the presentation upholstered furniture can be presented and compared with each other in a simple and fast way without the space requirement of all these different Upholstered furniture in the showroom consists, but only the space requirement of a single presentation upholstered furniture.

Die Befestigungsmittel, die zur lösbaren Befestigung der Lehne vorgesehen sind, können grundsätzlich auf beliebige Weise ausgestaltet sein. Dem Sinn und Zweck des vorliegenden Vorschlags entspricht es besonders gut, wenn ein schneller, unkomplizierter Wechsel unterschiedlicher Lehnen ermöglicht und durch die Befestigungsmittel nicht behindert wird. So können beispielsweise Spanngurte verwendet werden, die rasch gelockert oder gespannt werden können und die Lehne am übrigen Präsentations-Polstermöbel provisorisch sichern.The fastening means, which are provided for releasable attachment of the backrest, can in principle be configured in any desired manner. The sense and purpose of the present proposal, it is particularly good if a quick, easy change of different backs allows and is not hindered by the fasteners. For example, straps can be used that can be quickly loosened or tensioned and provisionally secure the backrest to the rest of the presentation upholstered furniture.

Vorteilhaft kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Befestigungsmittel werkzeuglos betätigt werden können, so dass im Verkaufsraum des Möbelhandels ein schneller und unkomplizierter Wechsel der einzelnen Lehnen vorgenommen werden kann. So kann beispielsweise vorteilhaft vorgesehen sein, die Befestigungsmittel als Häkchenverschluss auszugestalten. Derartige Verschlüsse sind aus Kunststoff und neuerdings auch aus Metall herstellbar, so dass entsprechend hohe Haltekräfte sichergestellt werden können, die beim Probesitzen auf dem Präsentations-Polstermöbel die entsprechenden Belastungen problemlos aufnehmen können, jedoch andererseits in kürzester Zeit die Demontage und erneute Montage einer anderen Lehnenvariante ermöglichen.Advantageously, it can be provided that the fastening means can be operated without tools, so that a quick and easy change of the individual backrests can be made in the showroom of the furniture trade. For example, it may be advantageous to design the fastening means as a hook closure. Such closures are made of plastic and recently also made of metal, so that correspondingly high holding forces can be ensured that can easily accommodate the corresponding loads during trial sitting on the presentation upholstered furniture, but on the other hand in no time allow the disassembly and reassembly of another backrest variant ,

Alternativ kann vorgesehen sein, das Präsentations-Polstermöbel in Art einer so genannten Polsterklammer bzw. eines so genannten Polsterhakens auszugestalten, wie sie aus der Praxis im Möbelbau bekannt sind: Die Befestigungsmittel umfassen dabei einerseits eine Aufnahmetasche und andererseits, als komplementäres Gegenstück, eine Einsteckzunge, die in die Aufnahmetasche eingesteckt werden kann. So kann je nach Ausrichtung der Aufnahmetasche und der Einsteckzunge die Lehne beispielsweise von oben gesteckt und somit montiert werden, so dass bei Auflage auf der Lehne, also bei einem Druck von oben, die Verbindung immer fester wird, so dass ein unbeabsichtigtes Lösen der Lehne im Probebetrieb des Verkaufsraumes ausgeschlossen ist.Alternatively, it can be provided to design the presentation upholstered furniture in the manner of a so-called upholstered hook or a so-called upholstery hook, as they are known in practice in furniture: The fastening means comprise on the one hand a receiving pocket and on the other hand, as a complementary complementary piece, a tongue, which can be inserted into the receiving pocket. So, depending on the orientation of the receiving pocket and the insertion tongue the backrest, for example, inserted from above and thus be mounted so that when resting on the back, so at a pressure from above, the connection is getting firmer, so that unintentional release of the back is excluded during trial operation of the sales room.

In ähnlicher Weise kann vorgesehen sein, die Befestigungsmittel einerseits mit einer Aufnahmehülse auszugestalten, die sich beispielsweise durch die Lehne erstreckt und andererseits mit einem Einsteckstift, welcher beispielsweise von der Sockelfläche des Präsentations-Polstermöbels aus nach oben ragt, so dass auch in dieser Ausgestaltung eine von oben erfolgende Steckverbindung der Lehne ermöglicht wird und andererseits eine problemlose Demontage der Lehne dadurch ermöglicht ist, dass diese einfach nach oben von dem übrigen Präsentations-Polstermöbel abgezogen wird.Similarly, it can be provided to design the fastening means on the one hand with a receiving sleeve which extends for example through the backrest and on the other hand with an insertion pin, which projects, for example, from the base surface of the presentation upholstered furniture from above, so that in this embodiment, one of up taking place connection of the backrest is made possible and on the other hand, a trouble-free disassembly of the backrest is made possible by that it is simply pulled up from the rest of the presentation upholstered furniture.

Bei allen drei oben genannten, rein beispielhaften Ausgestaltungsmöglichkeiten der Befestigungsmittel ist vorgesehen, dass diese unsichtbar sind, wenn die Lehne am übrigen Präsentations-Polstermöbel montiert ist. Auf diese Weise ist sichergestellt, dass sich für den Kunden dieselbe Optik des provisorisch zusammengefügten Präsentations-Polstermöbels ergibt, wie es auch später das Polstermöbel aufweisen würde, welches dem Kunden ausgeliefert wird und ggf. eine fest montierte unlösbare Lehne aufweist.In all three above, purely exemplary design possibilities of the fastening means is provided that these are invisible when the backrest is mounted on the rest presentation upholstered furniture. In this way, it is ensured that the same appearance of the provisionally assembled presentation upholstered furniture results for the customer, as it would later also have the upholstered furniture, which is delivered to the customer and possibly has a permanently mounted non-detachable backrest.

Vorteilhaft kann die Lehne als Armlehne ausgestaltet sein. Grundsätzlich ist es auch denkbar, die Lehne als Rückenlehne des Präsentations-Polstermöbels auszugestalten, beispielsweise um dem grundsätzlichen gleichen Präsentations-Polstermöbel eine unterschiedliche optische Erscheinung zu verleihen. Insbesondere die unterschiedliche Ausgestaltung von Armlehnen bewirkt eine sehr unterschiedliche Nutzbarkeit des Präsentations-Polstermöbels, beispielsweise durch die Armlehnenhöhe, den Verlauf der Oberkante der Armlehne oder dadurch, dass die Armlehne Funktionselemente enthält, wie beispielsweise die klappbare Kopfstütze, oder eine klappbare Abdeckung für ein in der Armlehne angeordnetes Fach oder dergleichen, so dass insbesondere eine Ausgestaltung der Lehne als Armlehne vorteilhaft ist.Advantageously, the back can be configured as an armrest. In principle, it is also conceivable to design the backrest as a backrest of the presentation upholstered furniture, for example to give the basic same presentation upholstered furniture a different visual appearance. In particular, the different design of armrests causes a very different usability of the presentation upholstered furniture, for example, by the armrest height, the course of the upper edge of the armrest or in that the Armrest includes functional elements, such as the folding headrest, or a hinged cover for a arranged in the armrest tray or the like, so that in particular an embodiment of the backrest as an armrest is advantageous.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel eines in dem vorschlagsgemäßen Polstermöbel-System verwendbaren Präsentations-Polstermöbels wird anhand der rein schematischen Darstellungen nachfolgend näher erläutert. Dabei zeigt

Fig. 1
ein Grundelement des Polsterelements, und
Fig. 2
drei unterschiedlich ausgestaltete Armlehnen, von denen jeweils eine an dem Polstermöbel von Fig. 1 montierbar ist.
An embodiment of a usable in the proposed upholstered furniture system presentation upholstered furniture will be explained in more detail below with reference to the purely schematic representations. It shows
Fig. 1
a basic element of the cushioning element, and
Fig. 2
three differently designed armrests, one of each on the upholstery of Fig. 1 can be mounted.

In Fig. 1 ist mit 1 ein Präsentations-Polstermöbel bezeichnet, welches als Sofa ausgestaltet ist und nicht vollständig ausgebildet ist. Das Präsentations-Polstermöbel 1 weist mehrere Füße 2 auf, mit denen es auf dem Untergrund aufsteht, wobei die Füße 2 an einer Sockelfläche 3 angeordnet sind, an der auch eine Rückenlehne 4 des Präsentations-Polstermöbels 1 befestigt ist. Auf der Sockelfläche 3 befindet sich zudem eine Sitzfläche 5 mit Rückenpolstern 6, wobei ersichtlich ist, dass die Sitzfläche 5 schmaler ausgestaltet ist als die Sockelfläche 3.In Fig. 1 1 is a presentation upholstered furniture, which is designed as a sofa and is not fully developed. The presentation upholstered furniture 1 has a plurality of feet 2, with which it rests on the ground, wherein the feet 2 are arranged on a base surface 3, to which a backrest 4 of the presentation upholstered furniture 1 is attached. On the base surface 3 is also a seat 5 with back cushions 6, wherein it is apparent that the seat 5 is designed narrower than the base surface. 3

Weiterhin ist aus Fig. 1 ersichtlich, dass an der Sitzfläche 5 Befestigungsmittel 7a vorgesehen sind, wobei diese Befestigungsmittel 7a Einsteckzungen 8 aufweisen.Furthermore, it is off Fig. 1 it can be seen that fastening means 7a are provided on the seat surface 5, these fastening means 7a having insertion tongues 8.

In Fig. 2 sind drei unterschiedlich ausgestaltete Arten von Armlehnen 9 dargestellt, wobei die links dargestellte Armlehne 9 eine schräg verlaufende Oberkante aufweist, die rechts dargestellte Armlehne 9 eine geradlinig und horizontal verlaufende Oberkante und die mittlere Armlehne 9 ein oberes Polster 10 aufweist.In Fig. 2 three differently configured types of armrests 9 are shown, wherein the armrest 9 shown on the left has a sloping upper edge, the right armrest 9 shown a rectilinear and horizontal upper edge and the middle armrest 9 has an upper pad 10.

Die größte Höhe sämtlicher drei Armlehnen 9 ist stets gleich, wobei durch den schrägen Verlauf der Oberkante die links dargestellte Armlehne 9 unterschiedliche nutzbare Abstützhöhen für den Benutzer bereitstellt und die mittlere Armlehne 9 ein vergleichsweise niedriges Grundelement 11 aufweist, an welchem das Polster 10 gelenkig befestigt ist, so dass das Polster 10 wahlweise als Armlehne, oder als Schulter- bzw. Kopfstütze genutzt werden kann.The greatest height of all three armrests 9 is always the same, with the oblique course of the upper edge, the armrest 9 shown on the left provides different usable Abstützhöhen for the user and the middle armrest 9 has a comparatively low base element 11 to which the pad 10 is articulated , so that the pad 10 can be used either as an armrest, or as a shoulder or headrest.

An der links dargestellten Armlehne 9 sind Befestigungsmittel 7b ersichtlich, die mit den Befestigungsmitteln 7a der Sitzfläche 5 zusammenwirken und Aufnahmetaschen 12 aufweisen. Gleichartige Befestigungsmittel 7b weisen auch die beiden anderen Varianten von Armlehnen 9 auf.Attachment means 7b, which cooperate with the fastening means 7a of the seat surface 5 and have receiving pockets 12, can be seen on the armrest 9 shown on the left. Similar fastening means 7b also have the other two variants of armrests 9.

Die Befestigungsmittel 7a und 7b ermöglichen es, werkzeuglos die jeweils gewünschte Armlehne 9 an dem übrigen Polstermöbel zu befestigen, indem die Armlehne 9 einfach auf die Sockelfläche 3 aufgesetzt wird und dabei die Aufnahmetaschen 12 auf die Einsteckzungen 8 gesteckt werden. Somit ist eine provisorische Befestigung der Armlehne 10 gegeben, die zum Probesitzen bzw. Probeliegen eine Probenutzung des Präsentations-Polstermöbels 1 ermöglicht, wobei durch einfaches Abheben und erneutes Aufstecken in kürzester Zeit die unterschiedlichen Varianten von Armlehnen 9 präsentiert bzw. ausprobiert werden können. Diese provisorische Befestigung der Armlehne 9 erfolgt dabei insofern unsichtbar, als nach der provisorischen Montage die Befestigungsmittel 7a und 7b nicht erkennbar sind, so dass das so komplettierte Präsentations-Polstermöbel 1 das gleiche Aussehen aufweist wie das später an den Kunden ausgelieferte Polstermöbel, bei dem die Armlehne 9 seiner Wahl dann fest montiert ist.The fastening means 7a and 7b make it possible to attach without tools the respective desired armrest 9 to the rest of the upholstered furniture by the armrest 9 is simply placed on the base surface 3 while the receiving pockets 12 are placed on the insertion tabs 8. Thus, a provisional attachment of the arm 10 is given, which allows for sample sitting or trial lounging a sample use of the presentation upholstered furniture 1, which can be presented or tried by simply lifting and repositioning in no time the different variants of armrests 9. This provisional attachment of the armrest 9 is made invisible insofar as after the provisional mounting the fasteners 7a and 7b are not visible, so that the so completed presentation upholstered furniture 1 has the same appearance as the later delivered to the customer upholstered furniture in which the Armrest 9 of his choice is then firmly mounted.
