Definitions

  • the invention relates to a chair with two stable seating positions, especially for office or working place applications, wherein the first position provides a conventional seat and the second position provides a seat similar when a rider sits on a saddle.
  • a chair that has a seat which comprises a substantially flat seating surface that continues after a short transitional section in a saddle-like front section with a high central portion that has an arced cross-sectional profile has been published in the international publication W02011/055948 .
  • Such a chair has a seat-support system by which (apart from the usual possibility of height adjustment) the plane of the seat can be turned into a downwardly inclined position, wherein the subject is basically supported against slipping down by the central curved profile of the saddle-shaped portion of the seat.
  • the support is provided by a vertical column arranged in the centre of the leg-branches, so that the weight of the subject is evenly distributed among the leg branches.
  • the angle of inclination of the seat can be adjusted by the adjustment of the angle of inclination of a pivotal shaft attached to the central column.
  • the combined depth of the conventional and saddle-like portions of the seat is the same or at most slightly higher than the depth of the seats of similar office chairs, whereby both the conventional seat portion and the saddle-like portion are less deep than the seat of a usual chair. From this it follows, that this chair can hardly be used to provide a comfortable feeling when it is adjusted so that the conventional but short seat portion is adjusted in horizontal position, and the chair is mainly intended for seating in an inclined position when the subject is supported both by the conventional and saddle-like portions.
  • the central support column is arranged in the vertical extension of the centre of weight line of the sitting subject, whereby the stability of the chair is not affected. If, however, the seat is adjusted by the rotation of the pivoted support member so that the conventional seat portion takes a horizontal, i.e.
  • the centre of weight of the subject is shifted backwards relative to the vertical axis of the support column, whereby the stability of the chair is decreased.
  • the offset distance between the centre of weight line of the subject and the central axis of the support column increases if the depth of the two portions of the seat are increased, and the stability of the support sharply decreases with the increase of the offset distance.
  • the object of the invention is to provide an improved chair, which has two stable sitting positions, so that in the first position the subject sits and feels as if he/she sat in a conventional office chair and uses the backrest as a back-support, and in the second sitting position the subject is held by the downwardly inclined saddle-shaped seat portion and takes a healthy sitting position with the spinal column being substantially vertical, and there is no need for supporting the back of the subject by any backrest.
  • a chair has been provided with two stable seating positions, especially for office or working place applications, that comprises a seat that has a conventional seat portion, a chair support that has a (virtual) vertical central support line, and a position adjusting assembly placed between the chair support and the seat to enable adjustment of the position of the seat, and according to the invention the seat comprises a saddle shaped seat portion attached and fitted to a front end of the conventional seat portion, and the position adjusting assembly can be used to place the seat in a first stable conventional sitting position, wherein a central portion of said conventional seat portion is substantially horizontal and the load is predominantly held by the conventional sitting portion, and the vertical central support line of the chair support substantially falls in the extension of a central weight line of a subject when sitting on the chair, and in a second stable position, the seat is inclined in forward direction, the load is predominantly held by the saddle shaped seat portion and the chair support is shifted in forward direction relative to the seat so that the vertical central support line of the chair support falls substantially again in the extension of the weight line of the subject.
  • the angle of inclination of the seat in the second stable position is substantially between 15° and 30°.
  • the chair support comprises a central support column and a position adjusting assembly connected to said support column (22), and the connection between the central support column (22) and the chair support (20) is an adjustable sliding connection, where the sliding direction is substantially a back-to-forward showing direction.
  • the support column has a substantially planar lower part, and an upper part connected to the seat, which parts are connected together by a pivotal connection arranged at the front edges thereof to enable the adjustment of the inclination of the seat.
  • Fig. 1a the top view of the seat 10 of a chair 1 is shown which consists of two parts, a conventional seat portion 11 and a saddle shaped seat portion 12.
  • Fig. 1b shows the same seat 10 from a different direction as placed on a conventional office chair support 20 that has a plurality of leg branches 21 each having a roller on their ends and a central support column 22 to which the seat 10 is attached.
  • Fig. 1c shows the same seat 10 on the chair support 20 in side view.
  • the saddle shaped seat portion 12 is illustrated in Fig. 1 in black so that the viewer can see that this portion is different both in shape and in function.
  • Figs. 2a, 2b and 2c show a wooden design of the seat 10 and here it can be seen that the seat 10 has a uniform curved surface with a smooth transition between the conventional seat portion 11 and the saddle shaped seat portion 12, the two portions 11 and 12 are made of a single bent wooden plate.
  • Figs. 3a, 3b and 3c show substantially the same seat 10 as shown in Fig. 2 , but here the wooden skeleton of the seat 10 is cushioned to provide a higher degree of seat comfort.
  • Fig. 3 a position adjusting assembly 30 is shown, which is placed between the top of the central support column 22 and the bottom of the seat 10, whereby the position adjustment described in connection with Figs. 4 and 5 can be carried out.
  • the conventional seat portion 11 has a substantially horizontal planar or slightly curved central part 13 which can have an upwardly bent rear part 14 that provides a support for the lower back of the subject.
  • the size (more particularly the width and depth) of this seat portion 11 is sufficiently large to provide the same comfort as a conventional office chair.
  • the saddle shaped seat portion 12 has a central ridge or crest 15 that has a slightly and upwardly curved upper central contour line 16 and the two sides around the central line define a curved surface which is convex when looked from above, wherein the profile of the surface follows a substantially parabolic line which deepen along the ridge 15 with increasing forward position.
  • FIG. 1 A specialty of the saddle shaped from lies in that the profile has an inflexion when the previously convex shape becomes gradually convex. While it is rather difficult to exactly describe a shape with words, the drawings of Figs. 1 to 3 illustrate how the seat 10 looks like. It is important to note that the upward inclination of the ridge is located so that this part will be between the thighs of the subject so that its presence cannot affect sitting comfort. Furthermore, the slope and shape of the sides of the saddle shaped seat portion 12 conform to the body contours of a subject sitting in usual position on the conventional seat portion 11.
  • Fig. 4 shows the chair 1 in the first conventional position, wherein the silhouette of a subject is shown indicating also the positioning of his vertebral column.
  • the chair has a backrest 23 with a support sheet 24 fixed to a lower part 31 of the position adjusting assembly 30.
  • Fig. 4 also shows that the angle between the upper leg part and the vertebral column of the subject is about 130°, whereas the central weight line 32 of the subject is substantially vertical and falls in the extension of the axis of the support column 22.
  • the drawing does not show, but the adjusting assembly 30 is provided with adjusting means whereby the height of the seat 10 can be adjusted according to the needs of the user.
  • Fig. 5 shows the chair with its seat adjusted to the second stable sitting position. This figure is arranged intentionally under Fig. 4 so that the rear and front limiting planes of the seat 10 remain in the same position as in Fig. 4 .
  • the support assembly 30 has a substantially horizontal lower part 31 and an upper part 33 to which the seat 10 is attached, and the lower and upper parts 31 and 33 are pivotally connected to each other, and the plane of the upper part 33 can be angularly displaced (tilted) with respect to the lower part 31.
  • the angular position can be changed and fixed by means of handle means not shown.
  • the upper part 33 is inclined by about 20 to 30° forward with respect to the horizontal lower part 31, and the support column 22 is moved forward along a path tooled in the lower plate 31 so that the central axis of the support column will be again in the extension of the weight line of the subject, now taking a quite different, forwardly shifted position.
  • the backrest 23 and most of the conventional seat part 11 have no role in holding the weight of the subject, as the subject is held predominantly by the saddle shaped second seat portion 12.
  • the ridge 15 and the curved side surfaces thereof care for the comfortable support of the body, where the angle between the limbs and the vertebral column slightly increases to reach around 135°.
  • the difference between the direction of the vertebral column in the first and second positions can also be observed in Figs.
  • Fig. 4 the vertebral column is slightly inclined in backward direction, and a part of the weight is held by the backrest, the major part of the weight is held by the conventional seat portion 11, while in the riding position of Fig. 5 the vertebral column is either vertical or slightly inclined in forward direction, there is no need of any back rest or back support, and the body takes a healthy and comfortable position.
  • the adjustment between the first and the second sitting positions include not only the tilting of the seat 10 but also the sliding of its support in forward direction, i.e. offset from the geometric centre of the seat 10, because in the second position the weight is held predominantly by the saddle shaped seat portion 12, and in this way the support column 22 is moved under the weight line of the subject when taking the second riding position.
  • the chair 1 provides a healthy solution as it combines the properties of a conventional office chair and of a specially designed healthy seat keeping the body in optimum position, and the user has the freedom of easily changing between these two positions. At the same time the sitting on the chair 1 is comfortable in both positions.
