Definitions
- the present invention relates to a device for moving a mattress support in relation to a frame, and a storage furniture unit comprising such device.
- Storage furniture of various kinds is known of in the art e.g. from EP 2 387 915 A2 , comprising a frame and a base, movable in relation to the frame, which acts as a support or stand for a mattress or for a user.

- conversion assistance means the are provided, acting on the device mechanisms to simplify achievement of the various configurations.
- the mechanisms and relative assistance means are continuously subject to mechanical stresses, which may be significant, so that relatively premature wear of the device occurs with a foreseeably short life of the storage furniture unit.

- reference numeral 6 globally denotes a storage furniture unit, preferably a storage bed or sofa-bed.
- the storage furniture unit 6 comprises a furniture frame 4 and a mattress support 2, joined to the furniture frame 4 and which presents a support surface 8 positioned in a base plane X.

- the storage furniture unit 6 further comprises at least one movement device 1, shown below, connected to the frame 4 and to the mattress support 2 to permit movements of the mattress support.
- a pair of devices is provided, positioned on the opposite sides of the frame and/or of the mattress support.
- the aforesaid pair of devices 1 is mechanically connected by at least one torsion bar 32, shown only in (box) cross-section in the attached drawings.
- the furniture frame 4 defines a storage compartment 34 which houses the movement device 1 in at least one functioning configuration of the same, preferably in the configuration shown in figures 2 and 5 .
- the furniture frame defines upwards an access aperture 44 to the storage compartment, for example to put in or take out items from the container, on which the mattress support is suitable for being at least partially superposed. That way the mattress support, depending on the configuration, permits or prevents access to the storage compartment 34.
- the movement device 1 comprises a frame element 10 and a base element 12, respectively connected to the furniture frame 4 and to the mattress support 2 being movable relative to each other; this way, the base element can be moved between a rest configuration and an inclined configuration, wherein a first end (12') of the base element 12 is distanced further from the furniture frame 4 than an opposite end 12" of the base element 12, and furthermore between the inclined configuration and a working configuration, wherein the base element 12 together with the base plane X is raised and substantially parallel to the rest configuration.

- the base element (and therefore the mattress support connected to it) is suitable for being moved between the rest configuration, for example shown in figures 2 and 5 , and the inclined configuration, wherein the access aperture 44 is free from the mattress support by virtue of a raising of its distal end 8'.
- the rest configuration for example shown in figures 2 and 5
- the inclined configuration wherein the access aperture 44 is free from the mattress support by virtue of a raising of its distal end 8'.
- such configuration is shown in figure 3 or 6 , without the mattress support which in any case constitutes a virtual extension of the base element.
- the frame element 10 comprises a plate, generally of a rectangular or square shape, which has a plurality of attachment points with the furniture frame 4, such as holes.
- the base element 12 is a component with a generally L- or T-shaped cross section for coupling to the lower surface of the mattress support 2 or with a counter-frame.

- the device 1 enables the base element to be converted from the inclined configuration to the working configuration, in which the base plane X is substantially translated parallel to the same plane in the rest configuration ( figure 4 or 7 ).
- the working configuration usually provides an extremely convenient position for the bed making-up.
- the conversion between the working configuration and the rest configuration takes place passing through the inclined configuration, so that to reach the rest configuration from the working configuration the same steps taken to open the compartment are performed in reverse order.
- the device further comprises a distal articulation arm 14, hinged to the frame element 10 and to the base element 1 to realise the conversion between the rest configuration and the inclined configuration.
- the distal articulation arm 14 extends in an wavy manner between the frame element 10 and the base element 12.
- the device 1 further comprises a proximal articulation arm 16 rotatable between the frame element 10 and the base element 12 for the conversion between the inclined configuration and the working configuration.
- proximal arm 16 is hinged to the frame element 10 at a third fulcrum Y, while it is preferably connected in a rotatable manner to the base element 12 by means of a joint component 30 suitable for causing a distal shift of the base element 12, and in particular of its element end 2".
- the joint component is connected so as to rotate to the base element and to the proximal arm 16 so that a raising of the first element end 2' corresponds to an advancement of the opposite element end 2" in a distal direction.
- Such advancement is due mainly to the rotation of the joint component 30 in relation to the proximal articulation arm 16.
- proximal articulation arm 16 and the joint component 30 interact in the absence of reciprocal blocks.
- the arrangement of the lever mechanisms described has in fact been designed so that the angle defined between the proximal arm 16 and the joint component 30 increases during the conversion between the inclined configuration and the working configuration, without however exceeding 180°, beyond which the movement towards the rest configuration would be made impossible.
- the torsion bar 32 connects the joint components 30 of a pair of devices 1 distanced along the mattress support 2 (and/or along the furniture frame 4) or, as shown in the drawings, joins the distal articulation arms 14.
- proximal 16 and the distal 14 articulation arms are both hinged to the frame element 10 at their head portions 14', 16'.

Description
- . The present invention relates to a device for moving a mattress support in relation to a frame, and a storage furniture unit comprising such device.
- . Storage furniture of various kinds is known of in the art e.g. from
EP 2 387 915 A2 - . The known furniture units comprise devices for tipping the base in relation to the frame, so as to move the former between different configurations; in particular, a specific type of device envisages an open configuration of the container and a configuration with the base raised.
- . Often conversion assistance means the are provided, acting on the device mechanisms to simplify achievement of the various configurations.
- . The movement devices used in the prior art however present a number of drawbacks.
- . In particular, in such devices, the mechanisms and relative assistance means are continuously subject to mechanical stresses, which may be significant, so that relatively premature wear of the device occurs with a foreseeably short life of the storage furniture unit.
- . The present invention thus sets out to overcome the problems of the prior art and, in particular, those referred to above.
- . Such objective is achieved by a movement device according to
claim 1, and by a storage furniture unit according toclaim 14. The dependent claims show preferred embodiment variations. - . The present invention will now be described in detail with the help of the attached figures, wherein:
-
figures 1a and1b show longitudinal cross-sections of a storage bed fitted with a movement device object of the present invention, according to the embodiment infigure 2 , respectively in a rest configuration and a working configuration; -
figures, 2, 3 and 4 show the movement device offigure 1 , without the furniture unit for greater clarity, in three different functioning configurations; -
figures 5, 6 and 7 show a movement device, according to a different variation of the proximal articulation arm, positioned in the three different functioning steps. - . With reference to the aforesaid drawings,
reference numeral 6 globally denotes a storage furniture unit, preferably a storage bed or sofa-bed. - . The
storage furniture unit 6 comprises afurniture frame 4 and amattress support 2, joined to thefurniture frame 4 and which presents asupport surface 8 positioned in a base plane X. - . The
mattress support 2 is therefore supported by thefurniture frame 4 which in turn preferably rests on the ground. - . The
storage furniture unit 6 further comprises at least onemovement device 1, shown below, connected to theframe 4 and to themattress support 2 to permit movements of the mattress support. - . Advantageously, a pair of devices is provided, positioned on the opposite sides of the frame and/or of the mattress support.
- . According to a particularly advantageous embodiment, the aforesaid pair of
devices 1 is mechanically connected by at least onetorsion bar 32, shown only in (box) cross-section in the attached drawings. - . Preferably, the
furniture frame 4 defines astorage compartment 34 which houses themovement device 1 in at least one functioning configuration of the same, preferably in the configuration shown infigures 2 and5 . - . According to the embodiment shown in
figure 1 , the furniture frame defines upwards anaccess aperture 44 to the storage compartment, for example to put in or take out items from the container, on which the mattress support is suitable for being at least partially superposed. That way the mattress support, depending on the configuration, permits or prevents access to thestorage compartment 34. - . The
movement device 1 comprises aframe element 10 and abase element 12, respectively connected to thefurniture frame 4 and to themattress support 2 being movable relative to each other; this way, the base element can be moved between a rest configuration and an inclined configuration, wherein a first end (12') of thebase element 12 is distanced further from thefurniture frame 4 than anopposite end 12" of thebase element 12, and furthermore between the inclined configuration and a working configuration, wherein thebase element 12 together with the base plane X is raised and substantially parallel to the rest configuration. - . In other words, the
frame element 10 and thebase element 12 are the components of the device suitable to mechanically couple to the furniture frame and to the mattress support, so as to conduct the aforesaid movements. - . In fact, while the
frame element 10 is firmly fixed to the furniture frame, the base element (and therefore the mattress support connected to it) is suitable for being moved between the rest configuration, for example shown infigures 2 and5 , and the inclined configuration, wherein theaccess aperture 44 is free from the mattress support by virtue of a raising of its distal end 8'. For example, such configuration is shown infigure 3 or6 , without the mattress support which in any case constitutes a virtual extension of the base element. - . For example, the
frame element 10 comprises a plate, generally of a rectangular or square shape, which has a plurality of attachment points with thefurniture frame 4, such as holes. According to a further variation, thebase element 12 is a component with a generally L- or T-shaped cross section for coupling to the lower surface of themattress support 2 or with a counter-frame. - . Preferably, when the
base element 12 is positioned in the rest configuration, the mattress support 2 rests on a plurality ofstruts 46 connected to the frame, for example opposite to each other, so that the device is not subject to stress also in such configuration. - . Within this description, the term "proximal" is taken to mean the components facing or positioned towards a
headboard 36 of the storage furniture unit; conversely, the term "distal" indicates the components facing or positioned towards afootboard 38 or lateral rim ofsuch unit 6. - . In addition, the
device 1 enables the base element to be converted from the inclined configuration to the working configuration, in which the base plane X is substantially translated parallel to the same plane in the rest configuration (figure 4 or7 ). For the variants in which the storage furniture unit is a storage (sofa-) bed, the working configuration usually provides an extremely convenient position for the bed making-up. - . According to one advantageous embodiment, the conversion between the working configuration and the rest configuration takes place passing through the inclined configuration, so that to reach the rest configuration from the working configuration the same steps taken to open the compartment are performed in reverse order.
- . The device further comprises a
distal articulation arm 14, hinged to theframe element 10 and to thebase element 1 to realise the conversion between the rest configuration and the inclined configuration. - . In fact, during such conversion, the
distal arm 14 rotates in relation to the frame element 10 (around a first fulcrum Z) and the base element 12 (around a second fulcrum L) permitting the raising of the first element end 2'. As will be explained in further detail below, this conversion is advantageously accompanied by a distal shift of thebase element 12. - . According to one embodiment, the
distal articulation arm 14 extends in an wavy manner between theframe element 10 and thebase element 12. - . The
device 1 further comprises aproximal articulation arm 16 rotatable between theframe element 10 and thebase element 12 for the conversion between the inclined configuration and the working configuration. - . In particular, the
proximal arm 16 is hinged to theframe element 10 at a third fulcrum Y, while it is preferably connected in a rotatable manner to thebase element 12 by means of ajoint component 30 suitable for causing a distal shift of thebase element 12, and in particular of itselement end 2". - . In other words, the joint component is connected so as to rotate to the base element and to the
proximal arm 16 so that a raising of the first element end 2' corresponds to an advancement of theopposite element end 2" in a distal direction. Such advancement, as may be seen from the comparison between the pairs offigures 2-3 and5-6 , is due mainly to the rotation of thejoint component 30 in relation to theproximal articulation arm 16. - . Consequently, by virtue of the previous arrangement, it is possible to prevent the head portion of
such mattress support 2 from accidentally hitting against theheadboard 36 of theframe 4 which, in the rest configuration, is in a location extremely adjacent to thehead portion 8". - . According to a preferred embodiment, the
proximal articulation arm 16 and thejoint component 30 interact in the absence of reciprocal blocks. - . The arrangement of the lever mechanisms described has in fact been designed so that the angle defined between the
proximal arm 16 and thejoint component 30 increases during the conversion between the inclined configuration and the working configuration, without however exceeding 180°, beyond which the movement towards the rest configuration would be made impossible. - . Advantageously, the
torsion bar 32 connects thejoint components 30 of a pair ofdevices 1 distanced along the mattress support 2 (and/or along the furniture frame 4) or, as shown in the drawings, joins thedistal articulation arms 14. - . Preferably, the proximal 16 and the distal 14 articulation arms are both hinged to the
frame element 10 at their head portions 14', 16'. - . According to an advantageous embodiment, the
proximal articulation arm 16 comprises a pair oflongitudinal sections connection loop 26. - . Consequently, the
longitudinal sections proximal arm 16 are joined to each other by theloop 26, which substantially represents a sinuous section of the arm between two preferably rectilinear sections, and are staggered lengthwise so that a tail of the firstlongitudinal section 22 couples to the head of the secondlongitudinal section 24, by means of the loop. - . In addition, a first 18 and a second 20 elastic assembly are provided, respectively joined to the proximal 16 and
distal articulation arm 14 to facilitate the conversion between the configurations described. - . Preferably, at least one of the first 18 and/or second 20 elastic assembly, advantageously both, comprises a gas spring.
- . Advantageously, the first
elastic assembly 18 acts on theproximal articulation arm 16 at theconnection loop 26. - . A further variation envisages that the first
elastic assembly 18, preferably at its end opposite the end connected to the proximal arm, is hinged to theframe element 10 at an axis M included between the fulcra Y, Z of the proximal 16 and of the distal 14 articulation arm. - . For example, with reference to
figures 4 and7 , such axis M is transversally staggered, for example upwardly, in relation to the conjunction line between said fulcra Y, Z. - . Advantageously, in the rest configuration, the
distal articulation arm 14 rests on a rotation pin directed along such axis M. - . Even more advantageously, the
frame element 10 presents, for example at its lower end portion, ashelf 40 for supporting theproximal articulation arm 16 in the rest configuration. - . According to a convenient aspect of such variation, during the assembly of the
device 1, theproximal articulation arm 16 abuts against theshelf 40 so that the firstelastic assembly 18 can be precompressed, that is finds itself in a state of partial tension/compression. - . According to a further embodiment, at the frame element, the second
elastic assembly 20, and in particular the gas spring, has a rotation axis Z in common with thedistal articulation arm 14. - . In other words, on the frame element, the second elastic assembly and the distal arm are guided by the same rotation pin.
- . Thereby, in the inclined configuration and in the working configuration the second
elastic assembly 20 and thedistal articulation arm 14 conserve the same reciprocal position. - . According to yet a further embodiment, one end of the second elastic assembly 20 (for example of the gas spring) is hinged to the
base element 12 distally to the second fulcrum L of thedistal arm 14, that is to say in a position N between the second fulcrum L and thefootboard 38, when thedevice 1 is joined to theunit 6. - . The
proximal articulation arm 16 defines, in a zone of overlap with theframe element 10, anabutment surface 28 with a rotation pin of the firstelastic assembly 18, which forms an end-stroke to the working configuration. Preferably, thesurface 28 is recessed (for example seefigure 6 ). - . In particular, the
surface 28 is preferably suitable for housing the zone of the firstelastic assembly 18 adjacent to the axis M, that is to say at least one portion of the aforesaid rotation pin which finds itself directed along such axis. - . Preferably, when positioned in the rest configuration, the first
elastic assembly 18 is positioned above theproximal articulation arm 16, that is it lies in a position included between suchproximal arm 16 and thebase element 12. - . Consequently, in the light of the embodiments illustrated above, it may be appreciated how a plurality of components contribute to maintaining the working configuration: first of all, when the
proximal articulation arm 16 reaches abutment with the rotation pin at the axis M, any further advancement of the arm is prevented. As mentioned earlier, the achievement of this position prevents the further rotation of thejoint component 30 in relation to the proximal arm in the absence of blocks. - . Moreover, in the working configuration, the second
elastic assembly 20 acts as a tie-rod between the base element and the frame element, in that it is in the configuration of maximum extension. - . Moreover, during conversion between the rest configuration and the inclined configuration, the first
elastic assembly 18 works on theproximal arm 16 to keep it substantially static. - . In other words, when the base element is moved between the rest configuration and the inclined configuration, the
proximal arm 16 remains passive inasmuch as kept in such position by the firstelastic assembly 18. - . The device according to the invention thereby makes it possible to delay wear on its components given that for each raising and lowering only the mechanisms strictly necessary work, both during such movement and preferably also during the conversion between the inclined configuration and the working configuration.
- . Preferably, in the rest configuration, the first elastic assembly 18 (or in the case in point the gas spring) is in an elongated conformation, for example pre-loaded in extension.
- . According to a further embodiment, in the rest configuration, the second elastic assembly 20 (or the relative gas spring) is in a compressed conformation.
- . Innovatively, the device and unit which the present invention relates to make it possible to prevent precocious wear of the components, in that the latter are divided into groups, each delegated to perform a single operation or movement. The present invention thereby provides a more reliable structure than the structures available in the prior art.
- . Furthermore, the means used for raising or tipping the mattress support are suitable to position themselves in intermediate or final configurations in which the mechanical stresses are markedly reduced.
- . Advantageously, the device according to the present invention is extremely compact, since only a small fraction of the storage compartment space is lost because occupied by the mechanisms delegated to move the mattress support.
- . Advantageously, the device according to the present invention makes it possible, during closure of the compartment, to retrace the same steps as during the opening so as to provide an extremely safe functioning; in fact the present device does not run the risk of a sudden conversion from the working configuration to the rest configuration which could surprise, or worse injure, a user.
- . Advantageously, the device according to the present invention is suitable for functioning in an extremely silent manner, especially by virtue of the assembly tolerances.
- . Advantageously, the device according to the present invention can also be used with beds with high footboards or in any case higher than average, since the engagement and disengagement of the mattress support from the frame occurs always maintaining a safety gap, suitable for preventing contact between the components.
- . Advantageously, when the device according to the present invention is in the working configuration, it is designed to withstand even considerable stresses on the free end of the mattress support.
- . A person skilled in the art may make variations or replacements of elements with other functionally equivalent to the aforementioned embodiments of the device and unit so as to satisfy specific requirements.
- . Such variations are also contained within the scope of protection as defined by the following claims.
