Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Sitz-/Liegemöbel, insbesondere Schlafsofa, mit einer Sitz-/ Liegefläche und wenigstens einem verstellbaren Lehnenelement. Ferner betrifft die Erfindung eine Beschlaganordnung zum Verstellen eines an einem Sitz-/Liegemöbel angeordneten Lehnenelements.The present invention relates to a sitting / lying furniture, in particular sofa bed, with a sitting / lying surface and at least one adjustable backrest element. Furthermore, the invention relates to a fitting arrangement for adjusting a arranged on a sitting / lying furniture backrest element.

Sitz-/Liegemöbel mit verstellbaren Lehnenelementen sind grundsätzlich bekannt.Seating / reclining furniture with adjustable backrest elements are basically known.

Es ist die Aufgabe der Erfindung, ein Sitz-/Liegemöbel der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, das auf möglichst einfache Weise verstellbar und gleichzeitig vielseitig einsetzbar ist, sowie eine Beschlaganordnung zum Verstellen eines Lehnenelements eines Sitz-/Liegemöbels bereitzustellen.It is the object of the invention to provide a sitting / reclining furniture of the type mentioned, which is adjustable in the simplest possible way and at the same time versatile, as well as to provide a fitting arrangement for adjusting a backrest element of a sitting / reclining furniture.

Die Lösung der Aufgabe erfolgt durch ein Sitz-/Liegemöbel mit den Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 und insbesondere durch ein Sitz-/Liegemöbel, insbesondere Schlafsofa, mit einer Sitz-/Liegefläche und wenigstens einem Lehnenelement, das zwischen einer Sitzposition und einer Liegeposition verstellbar ist, wobei das Lehnenelement in der Sitzposition einen Teilabschnitt der Sitz-/Liegefläche überdeckt und in der Liegeposition den Teilabschnitt freigibt, und wobei das Lehnenelement sowohl in der Sitzposition als auch in der Liegeposition an einem Grundgestell gelagert ist. Das oder die Lehnenelemente können insbesondere als Armlehne und/oder als Rückenlehne ausgebildet sein.The object is achieved by a sitting / lying furniture with the features of claim 1 and in particular by a sitting / lying furniture, in particular sofa bed, with a sitting / lying surface and at least one backrest element, which is adjustable between a sitting position and a reclining position, wherein the backrest element covers a partial section of the sitting / lying surface in the sitting position and releases the partial section in the lying position, and wherein the backrest element is mounted on a base frame both in the sitting position and in the lying position. The one or more backrest elements may be designed in particular as an armrest and / or as a backrest.

Das erfindungsgemäße Sitz-/Liegemöbel zeichnet sich dadurch aus, dass das oder die Lehnenelemente in beiden Verstellpositionen an dem Grundgestell gelagert sind und somit beim Verstellen in die Liegeposition keinen separaten Aufbewahrungsraum beanspruchen. Zudem weist das Sitz-/Liegemöbel einen hohen Benutzungskomfort auf, da durch die Lagerung der Lehnenelemente am Grundgestell ein unbeabsichtigtes Verschieben oder Herunterfallen der Lehnenelemente weitgehend ausgeschlossen ist.The seat / reclining furniture according to the invention is characterized in that the one or more backrest elements are mounted in both adjustment positions on the base frame and thus claim no separate storage space when adjusting in the reclining position. In addition, the sitting / lying furniture has a high level of user comfort, as by the storage of the backrest elements on the base frame unintentional shifting or falling of the backrest elements is largely excluded.

Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist eine Mehrzahl von, insbesondere auf unterschiedliche Weise verstellbaren, Lehnenelementen vorgesehen, die in der Sitzposition eine rechteckige Sitzfläche und in der Liegeposition eine rechteckige Liegefläche begrenzen, wobei die Liegefläche sowohl eine größere Breite als auch eine größere Länge als die Sitzfläche aufweist. Dadurch lassen sich die Sitzfläche und die Liegefläche optimal an die jeweilige Nutzungsart anpassen. So ist es beispielsweise möglich, in der Liegeposition die maximale Breite der Sitz-/Liegefläche auszunutzen und diese in der Sitzposition auf ein als komfortable Sitztiefe empfundenes Maß zu reduzieren.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, a plurality of, in particular adjustable in different ways, backrest elements are provided which define a rectangular seat surface in the sitting position and in the lying position a rectangular lying surface, wherein the lying surface both a greater width and a greater length than the Seat has. As a result, the seat surface and the lying surface can be optimally adapted to the respective type of use. Thus, it is possible, for example, to take advantage of the maximum width of the sitting / lying area in the lying position and to reduce this in the sitting position to a perceived as comfortable seat depth measure.

Bevorzugt ist das Lehnenelement längs einer nicht-geradlinigen, bevorzugt kreisförmigen Bahn parallel zur Sitz-/Liegefläche und unter Beibehaltung seiner Orientierung relativ zur Sitz-/Liegefläche zumindest in der Sitzposition und in der Liegeposition, bevorzugt auch während des Verstellvorgangs, bewegbar. Das Lehnenelement wird also effektiv zwischen der Sitzposition und der Liegeposition versetzt oder verschoben, wobei jedoch die während des Verstellvorgangs beschriebene Bahn nicht linear ist, sondern beispielsweise einen Kreisbogen beschreibt. Ein versehentliches Verstellen des Lehnenelementes wird dadurch vermieden. Eine derartige Verstellung kann insbesondere für eine Armlehne vorgesehen werden.Preferably, the backrest element is along a non-linear, preferably circular path parallel to the sitting / lying surface and while maintaining its orientation relative to the sitting / lying surface at least in the sitting position and in the lying position, preferably also during the adjustment, movable. The backrest element is thus effectively offset or displaced between the sitting position and the lying position, but the path described during the adjustment process is not linear, but rather describes a circular arc, for example. An inadvertent adjustment of the backrest element is thereby avoided. Such an adjustment can be provided in particular for an armrest.

Gemäß einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausführungsform ist das Lehnenelement um eine horizontale Schwenkachse verschwenkbar, wobei bevorzugt der Schwenkwinkel 90° oder 180° beträgt. Hierbei gibt das Lehnenelement durch einfaches Umklappen den zuvor überdeckten Teilabschnitt der Sitz-/ Liegefläche frei.According to a further advantageous embodiment, the backrest element is pivotable about a horizontal pivot axis, wherein preferably the pivot angle is 90 ° or 180 °. Here, the backrest element is released by simply folding the previously covered part of the sitting / lying area.

Bevorzugt ist es, wenn die Liegefläche durch die Oberseite eines Auflageteils gebildet ist, wobei die Schwenkachse zumindest näherungsweise mit einer die Oberseite des Auflageteils begrenzenden Kante des Auflageteils zusammenfällt. Insbesondere fällt die Schwenkachse auch mit einer Kante des Lehnenteils zusammen.It is preferred if the lying surface is formed by the upper side of a support part, wherein the pivot axis coincides at least approximately with an edge of the support part delimiting the upper side of the support part. In particular, the pivot axis also coincides with an edge of the backrest part.

Vorzugsweise ist das Auflageteil auf einer Stützfläche eines Grundgestells gelagert, wobei die Stützfläche wenigstens auf einer Seite unter dem Auflageteil hervorsteht und das Lehnenelement in der Liegeposition auf dem vorstehenden Teil der Stützfläche abgestützt ist. Dadurch ist es möglich, ein in der Sitzposition auf dem Auflageteil aufliegendes Lehnenelement durch Verschwenken oder Umklappen um einen Winkel von 180° in die Liegeposition zu überführen, in der es dann bevorzugt flächenbündig an die Liegefläche anschließt und zusätzlicher Bestandteil der Liegefläche wird.Preferably, the support member is mounted on a support surface of a base frame, wherein the support surface protrudes at least on one side under the support member and the backrest element is supported in the lying position on the projecting part of the support surface. This makes it possible to transfer a resting in the sitting position on the support member backrest element by pivoting or folding at an angle of 180 ° in the lying position, in which it then preferably flush-connected to the lying surface and is an additional part of the bed.

Gemäß einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist das bevorzugt als Armlehne ausgebildete Lehnenelement mittels einer nachstehend beschriebenen, erfindungsgemäßen Beschlaganordnung an einem Grundgestell gelagert, insbesondere mit vertikalem Abstand von der Sitz-/ Liegefläche.According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the backrest element, which is preferably designed as an armrest, is mounted on a base frame by means of a fitting arrangement according to the invention described below, in particular at a vertical distance from the sitting / lying surface.

Die Aufgabe der Erfindung wird weiterhin durch eine Beschlaganordnung mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 9 gelöst und insbesondere durch eineThe object of the invention is further achieved by a fitting arrangement with the features of claim 9 and in particular by a

Beschlaganordnung zum Verstellen eines an einem Sitz-/Liegemöbel angeordneten Lehnenelements, mit einer Parallellenkeranordnung, die ein Paar von in einer gemeinsamen Verstellebene liegenden, bevorzugt identisch ausgeführten Lenkern umfasst, wobei die Lenker jeweils mit ihrem einen Ende einen ersten Anlenkpunkt zur Anlenkung eines Grundgestells des Sitz-/Liegemöbels und mit ihrem anderen Ende einen zweiten Anlenkpunkt zur Anlenkung des Lehnenelements festlegen, wobei durch die Anlenkpunkte verlaufende Drehachsen parallel zueinander und senkrecht zur Verstellebene verlaufen, und wobei im an das Grundgestell und an das Lehnenelement angelenkten Zustand die Anlenkpunkte die Ecken eines Parallelogramms bilden.Fitting arrangement for adjusting a arranged on a sitting / lying furniture backrest element, with a parallel link arrangement comprising a pair of lying in a common adjustment plane, preferably identically designed arms, the handlebar each with its one end a first pivot point for articulation of a base frame of the seat / Liegemöbels and define with its other end a second pivot point for articulation of the backrest element, extending through the pivot points parallel to each other and perpendicular to the Verstellbene, and wherein articulated in the hinged to the base frame and the backrest element, the articulation points form the corners of a parallelogram ,

Die erfindungsgemäße Beschlaganordnung ermöglicht es, ein an einem Sitz-/Liegemöbel angeordnetes Lehnenelement zu versetzen oder zu verschieben, ohne dass sich die Orientierung des Lehnenelements in Bezug auf das Sitz-/Liegemöbel ändert.The fitting arrangement according to the invention makes it possible to displace or displace a backrest element arranged on a sitting / lying furniture without the orientation of the backrest element changing with respect to the sitting / lying furniture.

Bevorzugt sind die Lenker durch eine bevorzugt einfach oder mehrfach abgewinkelte und/oder gekröpfte Synchronisationsstange miteinander gekoppelt. Die Synchronisationsstange gewährleistet insbesondere, dass ein spielbedingtes Verkanten oder Verklemmen der Lenker verhindert wird.Preferably, the links are coupled together by a preferably single or multiple angled and / or cranked synchronization rod. The synchronization rod ensures in particular that a play-related tilting or jamming of the handlebars is prevented.

Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform ist die Synchronisationsstange derart geformt und an die Lenker angelenkt, dass ein Verschwenken der Lenker um die ersten Anlenkpunkte bei Erreichen wenigstens einer Verstellposition durch die Synchronisationsstange blockiert ist. Die Synchronisationsstange dient somit nicht nur der Synchronisation der Lenkerbewegung, sondern zusätzlich als Anschlag für die Lenkerbewegung, um die Endpositionen des Verstellbereichs zu definieren.According to an advantageous embodiment, the synchronization rod is shaped and hinged to the handlebars, that a pivoting of the arm around the first pivot points is blocked upon reaching at least one adjustment position by the synchronization rod. The synchronization rod thus not only serves to synchronize the handlebar movement, but also serves as a stop for the handlebar movement in order to define the end positions of the adjustment range.

Weitere vorteilhafte Ausführungsformen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen, der Beschreibung und in den Zeichnungen angegeben.Further advantageous embodiments of the invention are specified in the subclaims, the description and in the drawings.

Gemäß Fig. 1 bis 4 umfasst ein erfindungsgemäßes Sitz-/Liegemöbel 10 ein rechteckiges Grundgestell 12 mit einem Basiselement 14, das auf Stützfüßen 16 bodenseitig abgestützt ist. Auf dem Basiselement 14 ist ein als Polsterelement ausgebildetes Auflageteil 20 angeordnet, dessen Oberseite eine Sitz-/Liegefläche 22 bildet.According to Fig. 1 to 4 a seat / reclining furniture according to the invention 10 comprises a rectangular base frame 12 with a base member 14 which is supported on support legs 16 on the bottom side. On the base member 14 designed as a pad member support member 20 is arranged, the top of which forms a sitting / lying surface 22.

An einer Längsseite des Grundgestells 12 ist eine um eine Horizontalachse verschwenkbare Rückenlehne 28 vorgesehen, welche auf noch näher zu erläuternde Weise an dem Grundgestell 12 befestigt ist. An den beiden Querseiten des Sitz-/Liegemöbels 10 sind jeweils Armlehnen 24, 26 vorgesehen, wobei die eine Armlehne 24 ebenfalls um eine Horizontalachse verschwenkbar gelagert ist. Die andere Armlehne 26 ist in einer Horizontalebene versetzbar oder verschiebbar am Grundgestell 12 gelagert.On one longitudinal side of the base frame 12 there is provided a backrest 28 which is pivotable about a horizontal axis and which is fastened to the base frame 12 in a manner which will be explained in more detail below. Armrests 24, 26 are provided on each of the two transverse sides of the sitting / lying furniture 10, wherein the one armrest 24 likewise extends around a horizontal axis is pivotally mounted. The other armrest 26 is displaceable or displaceable on the base frame 12 in a horizontal plane.

Die Armlehnen 24, 26 und die Rückenlehne 28 weisen eine flachquaderförmige Gestalt auf, wobei deren Flachseiten in der in Fig. 1 und 2 dargestellten Sitzposition parallel zur Sitz-/Liegefläche 22 angeordnet sind. Während die Armlehne 26 und die Rückenlehne 28 um etwa das 0,5- bis 1,5-fache ihrer Höhe von der Sitz-/Liegefläche 22 beabstandet sind, liegt die Armlehne 24 unmittelbar auf der Sitz-/Liegefläche 22 auf.The armrests 24, 26 and the backrest 28 have a flat-square shape, wherein the flat sides in the in Fig. 1 and 2 shown sitting position parallel to the sitting / lying surface 22 are arranged. While the armrest 26 and the backrest 28 are spaced by approximately 0.5 to 1.5 times their height from the sitting / lying surface 22, the armrest 24 rests directly on the sitting / lying surface 22.

Im folgenden wird zunächst die Verstellung der Armlehne 24 zwischen der Sitzposition und der Liegeposition erläutert.In the following, the adjustment of the armrest 24 between the sitting position and the lying position will be explained first.

Die diesbezügliche horizontale Schwenkachse fällt mit einer querseitigen, die Sitz-/Liegefläche 22 begrenzenden Kante 30 zusammen. Zum Verstellen von der in Fig. 1 und 2 dargestellten Sitzposition in die in Fig. 3 dargestellte Liegeposition wird die Armlehne um die Kante 30 herum um 180° verschwenkt. In der Liegeposition stützt sich die Armlehne 24 auf einer an der Oberseite des Basiselements vorgesehenen Stützfläche 18 ab. Bevorzugt entspricht die Höhe der Armlehne 24 der Höhe des Auflageteils 20, so dass die Armlehne 24 in der Liegeposition flächenbündig an die Sitz-/Liegefläche 22 anschließt und diese zusätzlich erweitert. Die Armlehne 24 kann beispielsweise mittels einer Nahtverbindung, die zwischen einem Bezug des Auflageteils 20 und einem Bezug der Armlehne 24 gebildet ist, oder durch einen Abschnitt des Bezugs mit dem Auflageteil 20 verbunden sein.The relevant horizontal pivot axis coincides with a transverse side, the seat / lying surface 22 bounding edge 30 together. To adjust the in Fig. 1 and 2 shown sitting position in the in Fig. 3 shown lying position, the armrest is pivoted about the edge 30 by 180 °. In the lying position, the armrest 24 is supported on a support surface 18 provided on the upper side of the base element. Preferably, the height of the armrest 24 corresponds to the height of the support part 20, so that the armrest 24 in the lying position is flush with the sitting / lying surface 22 and additionally expands it. The armrest 24 may, for example, be connected to the support part 20 by means of a seam connection formed between a cover of the support part 20 and a cover of the armrest 24, or by a portion of the cover.

Mit Bezug auf Fig. 1 bis 5 wird nun die Anordnung und Funktionsweise der Rückenlehne 28 näher erläutert.Regarding Fig. 1 to 5 Now, the arrangement and operation of the backrest 28 will be explained in more detail.

Obere Endabschnitte der Stützen 32 sind nach hinten abgewinkelt und in beiden Verstellpositionen in einem im Inneren der Rückenlehne 28 ausgebildeten Hohlraum 34 aufgenommen. Am oberen Ende einer jeweiligen Stütze 32 ist ein bevorzugt selbsthemmendes Gelenk 36 vorgesehen, über welches die Rückenlehne 28 an der Stütze 32 angelenkt ist. An der Rückenlehne 28 sind Anschläge 38 angeordnet, von denen jeweils einer in einer Endposition der Rückenlehne 28 mit der Stütze 32 zusammenwirkt und die den Schwenkbereich der Rückenlehne 28 auf etwa 90° begrenzen.As it especially looks like Fig. 5 As can be seen, the backrest 28 is articulated to vertical supports 32, whose respective lower ends are secured by means of cantilevers 44 to the base member 14. Upper end portions of the supports 32 are angled backwards and received in two adjustment positions in a formed in the interior of the backrest 28 cavity 34. At the upper end of a respective support 32, a preferably self-locking joint 36 is provided, via which the backrest 28 is articulated to the support 32. On the backrest 28 stops 38 are arranged, of which one cooperates in an end position of the backrest 28 with the support 32 and the limit the pivoting range of the backrest 28 to about 90 °.

In der Sitzposition (Fig. 2) befindet sich die Rückenlehne 28 in einer horizontalen Position und ein Teilabschnitt der Rückenlehne 28 überdeckt einen entsprechenden Teilabschnitt der Sitz-/Liegefläche 22. In der Liegeposition (Fig. 3) ist die Rückenlehne 28 nach oben in eine senkrechte Position hochgeklappt und gibt somit den zuvor überdeckten Teilabschnitt der Sitz-/Liegefläche 22 frei. Diese Position kann auch als alternative Sitzposition mit vergrößerter Lehnenhöhe und Sitztiefe genutzt werden.In the sitting position ( Fig. 2 ) is the backrest 28 in a horizontal position and a portion of the backrest 28 covers a corresponding portion of the sitting / lying surface 22. In the lying position ( Fig. 3 ), the backrest 28 is folded upwards in a vertical position and thus releases the previously covered portion of the sitting / lying surface 22 free. This position can also be used as an alternative seating position with increased backrest height and seat depth.

Die Rückenlehne 28 kann einteilig ausgebildet oder, wie durch eine gestrichelte Linie angedeutet, in zwei oder auch mehr Teilabschnitte unterteilt sein, wobei dann jeder Teilabschnitt für sich verschwenkbar ist.The backrest 28 may be integrally formed or, as indicated by a dashed line, be divided into two or more sections, in which case each section is pivotable for itself.

Unter Einbeziehung der Fig. 6 und 7 wird nun die Verstellung der Armlehne 26 näher erläutert.Including the 6 and 7 now the adjustment of the armrest 26 is explained in detail.

Zwei vertikale, stabförmige Träger 42a, 42b sind über Tragarme 44 an einer Querseite des Basiselements 14 befestigt. Am oberen Ende eines jeden Trägers 42a, 42b ist jeweils ein Lenker 48 um die Längsachse des Trägers 42a, 42b verschwenkbar angelenkt. Das andere Ende eines jeden Lenkers 48 ist an einem jeweiligen, an der Unterseite der Armlehne 26 befestigten Bolzen 46 um die Längsachse des Bolzens 46 verschwenkbar angelenkt, wobei die Längsachsen der Bolzen 46 parallel beabstandet zur Längsachse der Träger 42a, 42b verlaufen. Die an den Trägern 42a, 42b angelenkten Enden der Lenker 48 definieren erste Anlenkpunkte, während die an den Bolzen 46 angelenkten Enden der Lenker 48 zweite Anlenkpunkte definieren. Diese Anlenkpunkte bilden die Ecken eines Parallelogramms, so dass die in einer Horizontalebene bewegbare Armlehne 26 beim Versetzen zwischen verschiedenen Verstellpositionen stets ihre parallele Orientierung zur Querseite des Grundgestells 12 beibehält.Two vertical, bar-shaped supports 42a, 42b are fastened via support arms 44 to a transverse side of the base element 14. At the upper end of each support 42a, 42b is a link 48 about the longitudinal axis of the respective Carrier 42a, 42b pivotally hinged. The other end of each link 48 is pivoted about a respective bolt 46 fixed to the underside of the armrest 26 about the longitudinal axis of the pin 46, the longitudinal axes of the pins 46 being spaced parallel to the longitudinal axis of the beams 42a, 42b. The ends of the links 48 articulated to the beams 42a, 42b define first pivot points, while the ends of the links 48 hinged to the bolts 46 define second pivot points. These articulation points form the corners of a parallelogram, so that the movable in a horizontal plane armrest 26 always maintains its parallel orientation to the transverse side of the base frame 12 when moving between different adjustment positions.

Die Lenker 48 sind ungefähr mittig um einen Winkel von 90° abgewinkelt und über eine Synchronisationsstange 50 miteinander verbunden. Die Synchronisationsstange 50 ist über zwei an ihren Enden vorgesehene Gelenke 52 im Bereich der Abwinkelung der Lenker 48 in dritten Anlenkpunkten an den Lenkern 48 angelenkt, wobei die Bewegungsebene der Synchronisationsstange 50 in einer Horizontalebene liegt, welche sich unterhalb der horizontalen Bewegungsebene der Lenker 48 befindet. Die Synchronisationsstange 50 gewährleistet eine zuverlässige und störungsfreie Betätigung beim Verstellen der Armlehne 26.The links 48 are angled approximately at an angle of 90 ° and connected to each other via a synchronization rod 50. The synchronization rod 50 is articulated via two joints 52 provided at its ends in the region of the angling of the links 48 in third articulation points on the links 48, the plane of movement of the synchronization rod 50 lying in a horizontal plane which is below the horizontal plane of movement of the links 48. The synchronization rod 50 ensures a reliable and trouble-free operation when adjusting the armrest 26th

Die Synchronisationsstange 50 ist jeweils im Bereich ihrer mit den Lenkern 48 verbundenen Enden abgewinkelt bzw. gekröpft, wobei die Bereiche der Abwinkelung bzw. der Kröpfung jeweils als Blockierbereiche 54 bzw. 56 wirksam sind, um den Verstellbereich der Armlehne 26 zu begrenzen. Bei dem vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel ist die Synchronisationsstange 50 derart ausgebildet, dass der Blockierbereich 54 mit dem vorderen Träger 42a zusammenwirkt und die Sitzposition definiert, während der andere Blockierbereich 56 mit dem hinteren Träger 42b zusammenwirkt und die Liegeposition definiert. Durch entsprechende Ausgestaltung der Abwinkelungen der Synchronisationsstange 50 lässt sich somit der Winkelbereich definieren, um den die Lenker 48 um die Träger 42a, 42b verschwenkbar sind.The synchronization rod 50 is angled or cranked in each case in the region of its ends connected to the links 48, the regions of the angling or of the offset respectively being effective as blocking regions 54 and 56, respectively, in order to limit the adjustment range of the armrest 26. In the present embodiment, the synchronization rod 50 is formed such that the blocking portion 54 cooperates with the front bracket 42a and defines the seating position while the other locking portion 56 cooperates with the rear bracket 42b and the lying position defined. By appropriate design of the angled portions of the synchronization rod 50, the angular range can thus be defined by which the links 48 can be pivoted about the carriers 42a, 42b.

Wie in Fig. 6 zu erkennen ist, sind in der Sitzposition die durch die Bolzen 46 definierten zweiten Anlenkpunkte gegenüber den korrespondierenden, durch die Träger 42a, 42b definierten ersten Anlenkpunkte etwas nach hinten versetzt. Dies bewirkt eine Arretierung der Armlehne 26 in der Sitzposition, da eine lediglich in Längsrichtung der Sitz-/Liegefläche 22 auf die Armlehne 26 einwirkende, nach außen gerichtete Kraft alleine noch keine Verstellung der Armlehne 26 in die Liegeposition bewirken kann. Vielmehr ist zunächst eine zusätzliche, nach vorne, also parallel zur Querseite des Sitz-/Liegemöbels 10 gerichtete Kraftkomponente erforderlich, um die Armlehne 26 zu verstellen.As in Fig. 6 it can be seen, in the sitting position, the second articulation points defined by the bolts 46 are offset slightly towards the rear relative to the corresponding first articulation points defined by the carriers 42a, 42b. This causes a locking of the armrest 26 in the sitting position, as acting only in the longitudinal direction of the sitting / lying surface 22 on the armrest 26, outwardly directed force alone can not cause adjustment of the armrest 26 in the lying position. Rather, an additional, forward, so parallel to the transverse side of the sitting / lying furniture 10 directed force component is initially required to adjust the armrest 26.

Im Verlauf der Verstellbewegung bewegen sich die Bolzen 46 auf einem um die Träger 42a, 42b herum verlaufenden Kreisbogen von der Sitzposition in die Liegeposition, wobei der überstrichene Verstellwinkelbereich etwas mehr als 180° beträgt. Die Bemessung der Armlehne 26 und die Abstände der Anlenkpunkte sind dabei so gewählt, dass auch für die Armlehne 26 gewährleistet ist, dass diese in der Sitzposition einen Teilbereich der Sitz-/Liegefläche 22 überdeckt und diesen in der Liegeposition vollständig freigibt.In the course of the adjusting movement, the bolts 46 move on a circular arc extending around the supports 42a, 42b from the sitting position to the lying position, wherein the swept-over adjustment range is slightly more than 180 °. The design of the armrest 26 and the distances of the articulation points are chosen so that it is also ensured for the armrest 26 that this covers a portion of the sitting / lying surface 22 in the sitting position and completely releases it in the reclining position.

Wie in Fig. 7 zu erkennen ist, befinden sich die Lenker 48 und die Synchronisationsstange 50 unterhalb der Armlehne 26. Alternativ ist es auch möglich, diese in einen an der Unterseite der Armlehne 26 ausgebildeten Hohlraum zu integrieren, so dass diese zumindest in der Seitenansicht nicht mehr sichtbar sind.As in Fig. 7 can be seen, are the handlebars 48 and the synchronization rod 50 below the armrest 26. Alternatively, it is also possible to integrate these in a formed on the underside of the armrest 26 cavity, so that they are no longer visible at least in the side view.

Die mit Bezug auf die Horizontalverstellung der Armlehne 26 beschriebene Beschlaganordnung kann auch in einer um 90° gedrehten Ausrichtung verwendet werden, so dass die Bewegungsebenen der Lenker bzw. der Armlehne vertikal verlaufen und die Armlehne zwischen einer abgesenkten und einer angehobenen Position verstellt werden kann. Das so verstellbare Lehnenelement kann auch als Rückenlehne eingesetzt werden.The fitting arrangement described with respect to the horizontal adjustment of the armrest 26 can also be used in a 90 ° rotated orientation, so that the movement levels of the arm or armrest are vertical and the armrest can be adjusted between a lowered and a raised position. The adjustable backrest element can also be used as a backrest.
