Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a table.
  • the present invention may find application in the context of table furniture of various kinds, such as tables for conference rooms, offices, seminar rooms or the like, but also in the context of tables for the private household, the present invention and the underlying problem will be below with reference to a large conference table explained in more detail.
  • conference tables are often equipped with relatively large table tops. In order to support the table top against the floor, such a table then usually requires a correspondingly stable base.
  • a state-of-the-art table is off US 4 133 271 A known.
  • the present invention seeks to provide an improved table that can be quickly and easily transferred from a use state in a space-saving state and can be converted back to its usable state in an equally effortless manner. For an operator, no additional sources of danger should arise here. Especially with regard to large tables should be achieved that the table can be used safely and does not unexpectedly move.
  • a table with two plate parts wherein the two plate parts are pivotable relative to each other from a stowage position to a use position.
  • the two plate parts In the use position, the two plate parts are arranged substantially in a first plane, and edge portions of both plate parts are facing each other in the utilization position.
  • the plate parts are pivotally coupled to a connecting member about an axis.
  • a locking device is provided, by means of which the plate parts in the utilization position can be locked with the connecting component.
  • the locking device is in this case designed such that the locking device causes a locking of at least one of the plate parts on the connecting member during pivoting of the plate parts from their storage position in their use position. This snapping takes place when the plate parts are in a pre-locking position. After snapping, the plate parts are prevented from moving back into the stowage position.
  • the idea of the present invention is to provide a table which is foldable by pivoting two plate parts to be brought from a usable state into a space-saving stowed state.
  • the two plate parts In the usable state of the table, the two plate parts occupy a utilization position, in which the plate parts are arranged substantially in one plane. This allows the plate parts form a table top for the table.
  • the pivotability of the plate members is achieved by a pivotable coupling of the plate members with a connecting member. In the use situation of the plate parts to ensure that the plate parts do not unexpectedly move out of the use situation, or in other words that the table does not fold up unexpectedly by itself. This can be avoided by a locking device, which makes it possible to lock the plate parts in the use position with the connecting member.
  • the locking device is formed in such a way that at least one of the plate parts engages during pivoting of the plate parts from the stowed position in the utilization position in a Vorverriegelungslage the plate members to the connecting member , This snapping prevents the plate parts from moving back into the stowage position. This can be prevented, for example, that the table folds in the direction of its stowed state, if one of the plate parts unintentionally, for example by setting a person on this is applied with a force before the plate parts are locked in the use position with the connecting member.
  • the locking device is designed such that it causes a latching of both plate parts on the connecting member during pivoting of the plate parts from the stowage position in the utilization position in the Vorverriegelungslage.
  • both plate parts are reliably prevented from moving back toward the stowage position.
  • a first of the plate parts is pivotally coupled to the connecting member about a first axis.
  • a second of the plate parts is pivotally coupled to the connecting member about a second axis.
  • the first axis in this case runs essentially parallel to the first plate part and the second axis runs essentially parallel to the second plate part.
  • the first axis is substantially parallel to the second axis.
  • the first axis and the second axis are also substantially parallel to the edge portions of both plate parts, which face each other in the utilization position.
  • the shortest possible gap between the edge portions of the two plate parts can be achieved.
  • the table is particularly space-saving in this embodiment, when the plate parts are in the stowed position.
  • the locking device is designed such that the pre-locking position is reached before the plate parts have reached the utilization position. It can thereby be achieved that when unfolding the table, the Vorverriegelungslage is taken reliably by the plate members. It can be further avoided in this way that the plate parts are present at the connecting member before they reach the Vorverriegelungslage.
  • the locking device is further designed such that the plate parts are inclined relative to each other in the Vorverriegelungslage.
  • the locking device has at least one actuating element.
  • the locking device is designed such that the actuating element can be brought into a latching position and into a locking position. In this case, after the latching on the connecting component by moving the actuating element from the latching position into the locking position, a transfer of the plate parts from the prelocking position into the utilization position can be effected. At the same time, the locking of the plate parts in the utilization position can be effected by this movement of the actuating element. In this way, the operator person can also recognize on the basis of the position of the actuating element, whether the plate parts are locked in the use position or not.
  • the locking device is designed such that the actuating element is further brought into a release position.
  • the actuating element is further brought into a release position.
  • the locking device is furthermore designed in such a way that the engagement of the at least one or both plate parts on the connecting component can be achieved by moving the actuating element from the latching position to the release position.
  • the plate parts can also be moved from the Vorverriegelungslage back into the stowage position.
  • a plurality of actuating elements are provided.
  • the actuators are adjacent to the edge portions of both plate members which face each other in the use position.
  • two actuating elements are provided on each of the two plate parts, which are arranged on different sides of the respective plate part, whereby the locking of the plate parts and the release of the lock can be made in a more comfortable way.
  • the locking device has a hook.
  • the hook is in this case movably mounted on one of the plate parts.
  • the connecting component has a projection, which is arranged and designed such that the hook can be brought into positive engagement with the projection.
  • a positive engagement of a hook in a projection causes a particularly reliable engagement and locking the plate members to the connecting member.
  • the hook is mounted such that the hook is deflectable by a distance which is sufficient to bring the hook during pivoting of the plate parts in the Vorverriegelungslage with the projection into engagement when the actuating element is in the latched position.
  • the latching takes place on the connecting component advantageously automatically by the hook engages behind the projection, without any further action of the operator person would be required.
  • the locking device has a shaft mounted on the one of the plate parts, wherein an eccentric is rotatably connected to the shaft and a portion of the hook surrounds the eccentric at least partially.
  • the eccentric makes it possible, by turning the shaft, to pull the hook against the plate part, thereby causing the pivoting from the pre-locking position into the utilization position and the locking in the utilization position.

  • the actuating element may in this case preferably be designed as a pivotable button. In this way, by pivoting the actuating element between the latching position and the locking position, between the latching position and the release position or vice versa, a rotational movement of the shaft and thus a rotational movement of the eccentric can be achieved.
  • the locking device further comprises a rotatably connected to the shaft, non-circular cam.
  • the cam is arranged on the shaft in such a way that, in the latching position, the cam is in contact with a wall element fixedly connected to the one of the plate parts. The cam can thereby form a stop for the rotational movement of the shaft.
  • the cam and the actuating element are arranged on the shaft in such a way that the actuating element in the locking position is substantially parallel to the one of the plate parts, and that the actuating element in the latched position substantially perpendicular to the one of the plate parts is aligned. For an operator, this is even more clearly recognizable by the vertical orientation of the actuator when the plate parts not yet locked in use.
  • this embodiment may be advantageous if actuators are provided on each of the plate parts.
  • actuators can first be brought out of their locking position with one hand one by one, or with both hands at the same time, in the respective latching position.
  • the plate parts are preferably still engaged on the connecting component. Only the transfer of the actuators in the release position allows the back swinging the plate parts in the stowage position.
  • the described compression of the actuators to release advantageously allows substantially simultaneous release of both plate members. The fact that the release can be done with one hand, the operator also has the other hand free.
  • a leg spring is provided, which is arranged and supported such that the leg spring is tensioned when the shaft is rotated by a deflection of the actuating element out of the engaged position. This causes the actuating element, if it is not in the locking position, is acted upon by a force which it spends in the engaged position. This can be achieved that during the pivoting the plate parts of the stowage position in the utilization position when reaching the Vorverriegelungslage always reliable locking takes place on the connecting member, whereby the security in the use of the table is further improved.

  • the additional force is preferably applied manually by the operator, the additional force to be applied being set in such a way that the operator can accomplish this without great effort. This can prevent unintentional jamming of the fingers between the edge portions of the plate members.
  • the operation of the table is even safer, since moving the plate parts from the equilibrium position in the Use situation in this development of the invention must be brought about specifically.

  • the hook 50 can be deflected by rotation of the ring section 50a about the eccentric 33 even without rotation of the shaft 32 by a distance sufficient for the hook 50 to move out of the equilibrium position into the pre-locking position 2a 'during pivoting of the plate sections 2a and 2b. 2b 'engages with the projection 51, as shown in detail XX of Fig. 4 shown.
  • the hook 50 preferably has a shape that allows a deflection of the hook 50 by sliding on the projection 51 and a subsequent engaging behind thereof. The hook 50 can thus engage behind the projection 51 in the latching position 31 'of the actuating element 31 and thereby prevent the plate parts 2a, 2b from moving back in the direction of the storage position 2a ", 2b".
  • the eccentric 33 can be attached to an in Fig. 31 support abutment 70 shown in perspective. This has bearing surfaces 72 which come into contact with the projections 36a and 36b. Further, passages 71 for the shaft 32 and a passage 73 for the hook 50 are provided. The in Fig. 29 shown eccentric 33 thus acts twice. On the one hand, the hook 50 is drawn into the housing 40 by the elevations 35a and 35b during rotation of the shaft 32 by passing through the arcuate recesses 52.
  • Fig. 17 further shows that the locking device 14 further comprises a leg spring 56 and a non-circular cam 55.
  • the non-circular cam 55 is also rotatably connected to the shaft 32 and for this purpose preferably also has a continuous hexagonal opening.
  • FIGS. 24 and 25 show that the cam 55 of the locking device 14 is preferably also disposed between ribs 43 of the associated housing 40.
  • One leg of the leg spring 56 is supported on the cam 55, while the other leg is supported on the housing 40.
  • the cam 55 and the leg spring 56 are arranged in such a way that upon rotation of the shaft 32 by a deflection of the actuating element 31 from the latched position 31 'out in the direction of one of the other two positions, ie the locking position 31 "or the release position 31st '', the leg spring 56 is stretched.
  • the cam 55 and the shaft 32 are therefore acted upon by a restoring torque upon rotation of the actuating element 31 out of the latching position 31 '.
  • Fig. 25 shows the cam in a state in which the actuating element 31 is disposed in the locking position 31 ''.
  • the cam 55 assumes the position shown in FIG Fig. 24 shown position.
  • the non-circular cam 55 bears against a wall element 41, for example a further rib of the housing 40.
  • the restoring force applied by the leg spring 56 causes the actuating element 31 and thus also the shaft 32 after the release of the locking and locking of the plate parts 2a, 2b with the connecting component 7 to return to the latching position 31 '.
  • the shaft 32 and the actuator 31 on each of the plate members 2a and 2b are already in the latched position 31 ', and upon refolding of the table 1, the plate members 2a and 2b engage in turn on the connecting member 7.
  • a comfortable and safe operation of the foldable table 1 is possible.
  • the operating members 31 on both plate parts 2a and 2b are twisted by the operator to the locking position 31 ", whereby the hook 50 provided on each of the plate parts 2a, 2b becomes the respective plate part 2a, 2b, and the plate parts assume the utilization position 2a "', 2b"', whereby the dead center of the arrangement of the ring section 50a and the eccentric 33 is run over, whereby the action of the leg spring 56 is superimposed Shaft 32 does not automatically move out of the locking position 31 ".
  • the present invention has been fully described above with reference to preferred embodiments, it is not limited thereto, but may be modified in a variety of ways. For example, it is not necessary to provide only one hook on each of the plate parts. There may also be several hooks, e.g. arranged side by side along the edge portions 13a, 13b are provided. Moreover, it is also not necessary to form the gear with a toothing, although this is advantageous. Instead, the transmission can also be designed as a chain transmission, a cable transmission or the like.
  • the invention is not limited to use in office and conference furniture. Although the present invention is particularly advantageous there, it can equally be applied to table furniture for home, garden furniture or the like.
