Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Schwenkfuß vorzugsweise für die Abstützung ausziehbarer Elemente bei Schlafsofas und dergleichen nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a swivel base, preferably for the support of extendable elements in sofa beds and the like according to the preamble of claim 1.

Bei Polstermöbeln, welche ausziehbare Elemente besitzen, beispielsweise bei Schlafsofas und dergleichen, ist es häufig notwendig, die ausgezogenen Elemente im ausgezogenen Zustand abzustützen, während gleichzeitig im eingeschobenen Zustand eine Maximierung der Bodenfreiheit erreicht werden soll, d.h. das möglichst keine Elemente zur Abstützung des ausziehbaren Elementes zwischen dem Fußboden und dem Möbelstück vorhanden sein sollen, da diese zum Einen aus ästhetischen Gründen als störend empfunden werden können, zum Anderen aus praktischer Sicht Hindernisse bei Reinigungsarbeiten unterhalb des Polstermöbels darstellen.In upholstered furniture having extendible elements, such as sofa beds and the like, it is often necessary to support the extended elements in the extended state while maximizing the ground clearance in the retracted state, i.e., in the extended state. the possible no elements to support the extendable element between the floor and the piece of furniture should be present, as these may be perceived as disturbing for one aesthetic reasons, on the other hand from practical point of view obstacles in cleaning work below the upholstered furniture.

Dies zu erreichen, gibt das Gebrauchsmuster DE 201 19 201 U1 ein in ein Liegemöbel verwandelbares Sitzmöbel an, bei dem Stützfüße vorgesehen sind, welche sich beim Einschieben des ausziehbaren Elementes von einer Nichtgebrauchslage in eine Gebrauchslage verschwenken. In ihrer Gebrauchslage werden die Stützfüße jedoch nur durch den Druck einer Feder gehalten, wodurch die Feder stark genug ausgelegt sein muss, um ein versehentliches Verschwenken der Stützfüße zu verhindern. Dies jedoch bedeutet eine Schmälerung des Komforts, da beim Einschieben des ausziehbaren Elementes die Kraft einer stark ausgelegten Feder überwunden werden muss.To achieve this, gives the utility model DE 201 19 201 U1 a convertible into a reclining furniture, are provided in the support legs, which pivot during insertion of the extendable element from a non-use position into a position of use. In their operating position, however, the support feet are held only by the pressure of a spring, whereby the spring must be designed strong enough to prevent accidental pivoting of the support legs. However, this means a reduction in comfort, since when inserting the extendable element, the force of a strong spring must be overcome.

Dementsprechend gibt das Gebrauchsmuster DE 299 02 630 U1 eine Lösung an, bei der der Stützfuß durch eine mehrgliedrige Konstruktion :aus einer Koppel und einem Hubschenkel abgestützt wird, welche durch einen Anschlag an einem zusätzlichen Gelenk eine Sicherung des Schwenkfußes gegen ungewolltes Verschwenken bewirkt. Eine solche Konstruktion weist jedoch aufgrund des dabei zwangsläufig entstehenden Viergelenks eine gewisse Labilität vor allem beim Einschwenken des Schwenkfußes auf und ist zudem kompliziert.Accordingly, the utility model gives DE 299 02 630 U1 a solution in which the support leg is supported by a multi-unit construction: of a coupling and a Hubschenkel, which causes a stop on an additional joint securing the pivot foot against unwanted pivoting. However, such a construction has a certain lability, especially when pivoting the swivel base due to the inevitably resulting four-bar linkage and is also complicated.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, einen Schwenkfuß anzugeben, der kostengünstig und zuverlässig ist und die erwähnten Nachteile nicht oder in vermindertem Maße aufweist.The object of the invention is to provide a swivel base, which is inexpensive and reliable and does not have the disadvantages mentioned or to a lesser extent.

Gelöst wird die Aufgabe durch einen Schwenkfuß mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1. Vorteilhafte Ausführungsformen finden sich in den Unteransprüchen.The object is achieved by a swivel base with the features of claim 1. Advantageous embodiments can be found in the subclaims.

Erfindungsgemäß weist der Schwenkfuß einen an dem ausziehbaren Element angelenkten Stützschenkel auf, welcher zur Aufnahme der Last des ausziehbaren Elementes sowie der bei dessen zweckmäßiger Verwendung zusätzlich auftretenden Lasten durch Personen vorgesehen ist. Des Weiteren ist ein Betätigungsschenkel vorgesehen, der ebenfalls am ausziehbaren Element angelenkt ist. Erfindungsgemäß ist der Stützschenkel mit dem Betätigungsschenkel durch ein Gelenk verbunden, welches sowohl eine Verdrehung wie auch eine Verschiebung erlaubt. Dies ermöglicht es, dass die Geometrie des entstehenden Dreigelenks vorzugsweise derart gewählt wird, dass eine Bewegung des Betätigungsschenkels ein Verschwenken des Stützschenkels bewirkt, während umgekehrt eine Bewegung des Stützschenkels gehemmt ist.According to the invention, the swiveling foot has a supporting limb articulated on the extendable element, which is provided by persons for receiving the load of the extendable element as well as the loads which additionally occur during its expedient use. Furthermore, an actuating limb is provided, which is likewise articulated on the extendable element. According to the invention, the supporting leg is connected to the actuating limb by means of a joint which permits both a rotation and a displacement. This makes it possible that the geometry of the resulting Dreikelenks is preferably selected such that a movement of the actuating arm pivoting the Support leg causes while reversing a movement of the support leg is inhibited.

Vorteilhafterweise ist das eine Verschiebung erlaubende Gelenk dabei so gestaltet, dass die Hemmung der Beweglichkeit in der Gebrauchslage des Schwenkfußes, d.h. in dessen Lage, in der er zur Abstützung des ausziehbaren Elementes dienen kann, gegeben ist und durch eine Schwenkung des Betätigungsschenkels aufgehoben werden kann, vorzugsweise durch eine Schwenkung des Betätigungsschenkels in der Richtung, in der der Betätigungsschenkel das Verschwenken des Stützschenkels in dessen Nichtgebrauchslage bewirkt.Advantageously, the joint permitting displacement is designed so that the inhibition of mobility in the position of use of the pivot foot, i. in its position in which it can serve to support the extendable element, is given and can be canceled by a pivoting of the actuating arm, preferably by a pivoting of the actuating arm in the direction in which the actuating leg causes the pivoting of the support leg in its non-use position.

Vorteilhafterweise ist das eine Verschiebung erlaubende Gelenk zwischen Stützschenkel und Betätigungsschenkel derart gestaltet, dass beim Verschwenken des Stützschenkels zwischen seiner Gebrauchs- und seiner Nichtgebrauchslage dieser um seine Anlenkung an dem ausziehbaren Element um einen größeren Winkelbereich verschwenkt wird als der Betätigungsschenkel um dessen Anlenkung an dem ausziehbaren Element verschwenkt wird. Dies kann beispielsweise dadurch erreicht werden, dass der Anlenkungspunkt des Betätigungsschenkels an dem Stützschenkel sich im Wesentlichen entlang dessen Längserstreckung verschiebt, wenn der Stützschenkel durch den Betätigungsschenkel bewegt wird.Advantageously, the displacement-permitting joint between the support leg and the actuating arm is designed such that when pivoting the support leg between its use and its non-use position this is pivoted about its articulation on the extendable element by a larger angular range than the actuating arm to its articulation on the extendable element is pivoted. This can be achieved, for example, in that the point of articulation of the actuating leg on the support leg moves substantially along its longitudinal extent when the supporting leg is moved by the actuating leg.

Die Verschieblichkeit des die Verschiebung erlaubenden Gelenks zwischen dem Betätigungs- und dem Stützschenkel kann beispielsweise dadurch realisiert werden, dass einer der beiden Schenkel ein Langloch aufweist, in dem das am anderen Schenkel vorgesehene Gegenelement des Gelenks verschieblich aufgenommen ist. Vorteilhafterweise weist das Langloch dabei eine Ausnehmung auf, welche sich vorzugsweise im Bereich eines seiner Enden findet, wobei die Ausnehmung vorteilhafterweise eine Richtungsänderung der Verschiebungsbewegung des Gegenelementes in dem Langloch relativ zu dem Langloch bewirkt, beispielsweise indem die Ausbildung der Ausnehmung nach Art eines Abknickens des Endbereichs des Langlochs realisiert ist. Eine solche Gestaltung wirkt sich vorteilhaft auf die Selbsthemmungsfunktion des Dreigelenks in der Gebrauchslage aus.The mobility of the displacement permitting joint between the actuating and the support leg can be realized, for example, that one of the two legs has a slot in which provided on the other leg counter element of the Joint is slidably received. Advantageously, the slot has a recess, which is preferably in the region of one of its ends, wherein the recess advantageously causes a change in direction of the displacement movement of the counter element in the slot relative to the slot, for example by the formation of the recess in the manner of a kinking of the end portion the slot is realized. Such a design has an advantageous effect on the self-locking function of the Dreigelenks in the position of use.

Zur Betätigung des Schwenkfußes kann vorzugsweise zu dessen Überführung von der Nichtgebrauchs- in die Gebrauchslage eine Feder dienen, die vorzugsweise auf den Betätigungsschenkel des Stützfußes wirkt. Das Wirken auf den Betätigungsschenkel wirkt sich positiv auf die Selbsthemmungsfunktion in der Gebrauchslage aus. Weiterhin kann ein Betätigungselement, bei dem es sich beispielsweise um einen Betätigungshebel handeln kann, an dem Betätigungsschenkel vorgesehen, mit diesem verbunden, einstückig ausgeführt oder verdrehsteif beispielsweise durch eine Achse mit diesem verbunden sein. Das Betätigungselement ist vorzugsweise so gestaltet, dass es beim Einschieben des ausziehbaren Elementes mit einem hierfür vorgesehenen Bereich am Grundelement in Eingriff kommen und dadurch die Überführung des Schwenkfußes in seine Nichtgebrauchslage bewirken kann.For the actuation of the swivel base can preferably serve for the transfer of the non-use in the use position a spring, which preferably acts on the actuating limb of the support leg. The action on the actuating leg has a positive effect on the self-locking function in the position of use. Furthermore, an actuating element, which may be, for example, an actuating lever provided on the actuating limb, connected to this, carried out in one piece or torsionally rigid, for example by an axis connected thereto. The actuating element is preferably designed so that when inserting the extendable element with a space provided for this purpose on the base element engage and thereby cause the transfer of the swivel base in its non-use position.

Vorteilhafterweise weist der Stützschenkel an seinem bodenseitigen Ende ein Gleit- und/oder Rollelement auf, welches die Handhabung des ausziehbaren Elementes erleichtert, da so ab dem Zeitpunkt des Verschwenkens des Stützschenkels in dessen Gebrauchslage die Last des ausziehbaren Elements bereits während dem Ausziehvorgang von dem Stützschenkel übernommen werden kann. Des Weiteren ist es vorteilhaft, wenn eine Einrichtung zur Unterstützung des ausziehbaren Elementes vorgesehen ist, die derart gestaltet ist, dass zumindest in dem Auszugsbereich, in dem die Verschwenkbewegung des Stützschenkels in die Gebrauchslage stattfindet, eine Abstützung des ausziehbaren Elementes stattfindet, wobei das ausziehbare Element in einem Abstand zum Boden abgestützt wird, der derart groß gewählt ist, dass das Stützelement frei, d.h. im Wesentlichen ohne Bodenkontakt in seine Gebrauchslage verschwenken kann, so dass eine Krafteinwirkung auf das ausziehbare Element bei dessen Handhabung, lediglich in Auszugsrichtung notwendig ist, nicht aber um die Bodenfreiheit für das Ausschwenken des Stützschenkels in dessen Gebrauchslage zu schaffen. Zusätzlich kann diese Einrichtung die Funktion übernehmen, das ausziehbare Element im eingeschobenen Zustand abzustützen. Vorzugsweise wird die Stützfunktion durch die Einrichtung über den gesamten Auszugsbereich, in dem sich der Stützschenkel nicht in seiner Gebrauchslage befindet, gewährleistet.Advantageously, the support leg at its bottom end to a sliding and / or rolling element, which facilitates the handling of the extendable element, since so from the time of pivoting of the Support leg in the use position, the load of the extendable element can be taken during the extraction of the support leg. Furthermore, it is advantageous if a device for supporting the extendable element is provided, which is designed such that at least in the extension area, in which the pivoting movement of the support leg takes place in the position of use, a support of the extendable element takes place, wherein the extendable element is supported at a distance from the ground, which is chosen so large that the support element freely, that can pivot substantially without ground contact in its position of use, so that a force on the extendable element in its handling, only in the extension direction is necessary, but not to create the ground clearance for swinging the support leg in its position of use. In addition, this device can take over the function to support the extendable element in the inserted state. Preferably, the support function is ensured by the device over the entire extension region, in which the support leg is not in its position of use.

Bei dem beispielhaften Sitzmöbel handelt es sich um ein Schlafsofa, welches ein ausziehbares Element 1 aufweist, das im ausgezogenen Zustand eine vergrößerte Liegefläche bereitstellt. Das beispielhafte Sitzmöbel steht, wenn sich das ausziehbare Element im eingeschobenen Zustand befindet, auf nicht dargestellten Füßen. Das ausziehbare Element 1 ist an seinem rückwärtigen Ende durch die Linearführung 15 mit dem Sitzmöbel verbunden, so dass es in Auszugsrichtung X verschieblich gelagert ist. Im eingeschobenen Zustand wird es darüber hinaus in seinem vorderen Bereich durch eine Einrichtung zur Unterstützung, bestehend aus deren ausziehbaren Element 1 vorgesehenen Kulissenführung 9 sowie der am Sitzmöbel vorgesehenen Kulissenführung 10 unterstützt. Beim Ausziehen des ausziehbaren Elementes 1 in Richtung der Auszugsrichtung X unterstützen die Kulissenführungen 9 und 10 das ausziehbare Element derart, dass der Stützschenkel 2 des beispielhaften erfindungsgemäßen Schwenkfußes ungehindert in seine Gebrauchslage schwenken kann, vorzugsweise ohne dass er dabei den Boden mit der Rolle 11 berührt. Ist der Stützschenkel 2 in seine Gebrauchslage geschwenkt und wird das ausziehbare Element 1 weiter in Richtung der Auszugsrichtung X bewegt, so kommen die Kulissen 9 und 10 außer Eingriff und der Stützschenkel 2 übernimmt die Abstützung des ausziehbaren Elements 1 in seinem vorderen Bereich, welches dann auf der Rolle 11 über den Boden rollend in seine vollständig ausgezogene Position gebracht werden kann.In the exemplary seating is a sofa bed, which has a pull-out element 1, which provides an enlarged lying surface in the extended state. The exemplary seating is, if the pull-out element is in the inserted state, not shown feet. The extendable element 1 is connected at its rear end by the linear guide 15 with the seating, so that it is displaceably mounted in the extension direction X. In the retracted state, it is also supported in its front area by a device for supporting, consisting of the extendable element 1 provided slotted guide 9 and provided on the seat slotted guide 10. When pulling out the extendable element 1 in the direction of extension X support the slide guides 9 and 10, the extendable element such that the support leg 2 of the exemplary pivot foot according to the invention can pivot freely in its position of use, preferably without him touching the ground with the roller 11. Is the support leg 2 pivoted into its position of use and the extendable element 1 is moved further in the direction of extension X, the scenes come 9 and 10 disengaged and the support leg 2 takes over the support of the extendable element 1 in its front region, which then on the roller 11 via rolling the floor to its fully extended position.

Das Verschwenken des Stützschenkels 2 in seine Gebrauchslage wird dabei durch die Feder 7 bewirkt, die zunächst am Betätigungsschenkel 4 angreift, wodurch dieser um seine Anlenkung 6 am ausziehbaren Element 1 verschwenkt wird und über das eine Verschiebung zulassende Gelenk 12 den Stützschenkel 2 um seine Anlenkung 3 am ausziehbaren Element 1 verschwenkt bis der Stützschenkel 2 seine Gebrauchslage erreicht hat. Dabei gleitet das betätigungsschenkelseitige Element des eine Verschiebung zulassenden Gelenks 12 in dem Langloch 13, welches in dem Stützschenkel 2 vorgesehen ist und sich im Wesentlichen entlang dessen Längserstreckung erstreckt, bis zu dem in der Gebrauchslage des Stützschenkels 2 bodenseitigen Ende des Langlochs 13. An seinem bodenseitigen Ende weist das Langloch 13 eine Ausnehmung 14 auf, in das das betätigungsschenkelseitige Gegenelement des eine Verschiebung zulassenden Gelenks 12 bei Erreichen der Gebrauchslage des Stützschenkels 2 hinein gleitet. Durch die Kontur des Umrisses der Ausnehmung 14 wird in der Gebrauchsstellung eine Selbsthemmung erreicht, die dergestalt wirkt, dass ein Verschwenken des Stützschenkels 2 durch einen Kraftangriff am Stützschenkel 2, wie er beispielsweise dadurch entstehen kann, dass unbeabsichtigt mit dem Fuß gegen den Stützschenkel 2 gestoßen wird oder sich ein Hindernis im Weg der Rolle 11 beim Ausziehen des ausziehbaren Elementes 1 befindet, nicht mehr möglich ist.The pivoting of the support leg 2 in its position of use is effected by the spring 7, which initially acts on the actuating arm 4, whereby it is pivoted about its articulation 6 on the extendable element 1 and the displacement permitting joint 12 the support leg 2 about its articulation. 3 pivoted on the extendable element 1 until the support leg 2 has reached its position of use. In this case, the operating leg-side element of a displacement permitting joint 12 slides in the slot 13, which is provided in the support leg 2 and extends substantially along the longitudinal extension, up to the bottom in the position of use of the support leg 2 end of the slot 13. At its bottom side End, the slot 13 has a recess 14, in which the operating leg-side counter element of a displacement permitting joint 12 upon reaching the position of use of the support leg 2 slides into it. Due to the contour of the outline of the recess 14, a self-locking is achieved in the position of use, which acts such that a pivoting of the support leg 2 by a force attack on the support leg 2, as he may arise, for example, that unintentionally with the foot is pushed against the support leg 2 or an obstacle in the way of the roller 11 when pulling out the extendable element 1 is no longer possible.

Wird das ausziehbare Element 1 wieder in das Sitzmöbel eingeschoben, so kommen zunächst die Kulissen 9 und 10 miteinander in Eingriff, wodurch das Stützelement entlastet wird. Dann kommt das Betätigungselement 5, das im gezeigten Beispiel als verdrehsteif mit dem Betätigungsschenkel 4 verbundener Betätigungshebel ausgeführt ist, an einem dafür vorgesehenen Bereich 8 am Grundelement des Sitzmöbels zum Eingriff. Ein weiteres Verschieben des ausziehbaren Elements entgegen seiner Auszugsrichtung X bewirkt, dass das Betätigungselement 5 dem Betätigungsschenkel 4 entgegen der Kraft der Feder 7 um die Anlenkung 6 des Betätigungsschenkels 4 am ausziehbaren Element 1 verschwenkt, wodurch zunächst das betätigungsschenkelseitige Gegenelement des eine Verschiebung zulassenden Gelenks 12 aus der Ausnehmung 14 bewegt und dadurch die Bewegungshemmung des Stützschenkels 2 aufgehoben wird. Weiteres Einschieben des ausziehbaren Elementes 1 entgegen der Auszugsrichtung X bewirkt, dass das Betätigungselement 5 dem Betätigungsschenkel 4 weiter entgegen der Kraft der Feder 7 verschwenkt und so der Betätigungshebel 5 den Stützschenkel 2 in seine Nichtgebrauchsstellung bewegt, wobei das betätigungsschenkelseitige Gegenelement des eine Verschiebung zulassenden Gelenks 12 in dem Langloch 13 an dessen der Anlenkung 3 des Stützschenkels 2 am ausziehbaren Element 1 zugewandten Endes gleitet.If the pull-out element 1 is pushed back into the chair, then initially the scenes 9 and 10 engage with each other, whereby the support element is relieved. Then comes the actuating element 5, which is designed in the example shown as torsionally rigid with the actuating limb 4 associated actuating lever, at a designated area 8 on the base element of the chair for engagement. A further displacement of the extendable element counter to its extension direction X causes the actuating element 5, the actuating leg 4 pivoted against the force of the spring 7 to the articulation 6 of the actuating arm 4 on the extendable element 1, whereby initially the operating leg side counter element of a displacement permitting joint 12 the recess 14 moves and thereby the movement inhibition of the support leg 2 is released. Further insertion of the extendable element 1 against the extension direction X causes the actuating element 5 the actuating leg 4 further pivoted against the force of the spring 7 and so the actuating lever 5 moves the support leg 2 in its non-use position, wherein the operating leg side counter element of a displacement permitting joint 12th slides in the slot 13 at the articulation 3 of the support leg 2 on the extendable element 1 facing the end.
