Definitions

  • the first rocker 14 is in the FIG. 15 an oblique view of the in the Figures 9 and 10 shown chair 34 shown. Accordingly, here is the description of the FIG. 13 or 14 referenced. Deviating from the first rocker of the first and the third embodiment variant, the first rocker 14 does not fork in an antler shape, but has only one central articulation point 18, in which the first rocker 14 is connected to the seat shell 32 of the chair 34.
  • the seat shell 32 is not connected via an antler of the torsion element, but is fastened centrally in the region of the plane of symmetry 22 to an extension 35 of the torsion bar 21.
  • the torsion element 11 is still designed to be elastically elastic and thus springs back the back part 9 of the support element 2 between the initial position 9-1 and the end position 9-2, for which purpose the transition region 7 of the support element 2 is elastically deformed.
  • a superposition of tilt and torsion is possible even when the first rocker 14 is formed in a ⁇ -shape or upside-down Y-shaped, as shown in the fifth and sixth embodiment.
  • the first buckling device 50 is preferably formed as a bending zone B50, which allows a kind of buckling between the lower portion 52 and the upper portion 53 of the back part 9, depending on the position in which the chair 1a 30a, 31a, 33a, 34a and 36a located. In a rest position R1, like this in the Figures 19 . 22 . 25 . 28 .
  • This movement which is counter to the tilting movement directed in the arrow directions x 'and y', stabilizes the neck and the head of the chair 1a 1a, 31a, depending on the shape and size of the upper portion 53 of the back 9 , 33a, 34a and 36a, respectively, and allows the person to maintain in an ergonomically desired manner an axis of view when reclining and in the reclined position, as the upper portion 53 of the back part 9, on the surface 53a of which the head the person sitting on the chair rests, inclines to a lesser extent between the position R1 and the position R1 than the lower portion 52 of the back part 9, on the surface 52a of which the person sitting on the chair leans against her upper body.
  • the second kink device 51 in both positions R1 and R2 of the chair 1a, 30a, 31a, 33a, 34a and 36a below the first kink device 50 is arranged.
  • the first buckling device 50 technically in the two support beams 26, 27 by one each as an elastic region trained bending zone B50 executed or alternatively formed by a respective joint element.
  • the covering 28 follows the movement predetermined by the supporting bars 26, 27 without additional adaptation.
  • the second bending device 51 in the torsion element 11 or the first rocker 14, which forms the torsion element 11, is formed underneath the antler 29 into which the torsion bar 21 bifurcates in the articulation region 54 in the Beams 26, 27 to pass.
  • the second bending device 51 is formed by a bending zone B51 designed as an elastic region or alternatively as a joint element.
  • the antler 29 forms the upper portion 56 of the torsion element 11.
  • the antler 29 is in particular flat with the support bars 26, 37 are connected.
  • the second buckling device 51 is formed by a bending zone B51 designed as an elastic region or alternatively by a joint element.
