Definitions

  • the invention relates to a fitting for a piece of seating furniture and a piece of seating furniture with such a fitting.
  • Such fittings are for example from the EP2356922A1 known.
  • a generic fitting for a piece of seating furniture has the following components: It has a base for stationary or rotatable about a vertical axis arrangement on a substrate. He has a support member to which the seat of the seat piece of furniture is intended to be attached, this support member relative to said base between a relative to a furniture longitudinal axis front end relative position and a rear Endrelativlage is movable. He has for the purpose of this relative mobility of the support member further comprises a front and a rear rigid tab, wherein the front tab is pivotable about a stationary to the base and the front flap first axis relative to the base and a fixed to the support member and the front flap second axis is pivotable relative to the support member.
  • the rear flap is pivotable relative to the base about a third axis fixed to the base and to the rear flap, and to a support part and to the rear flap stationary fourth axis relative to the support member pivotally.
  • the fitting has a leg rest portion for attachment of a leg rest, which is veschwenkbar between a stowed position under the base and a functional position in front of the base and its relative position to the base with the relative position of the support member relative to the base is forcibly coupled such that the Beinauflageteil occupies the functional position , When the support member is disposed in its rear Endrelativlage, and assumes the stowed position when the support member is disposed in its front Endrelativlage.
  • a generic fitting also has a first spring between a first and a second pivot point on the support member and the base part, which causes a force acting on the support member in the direction of its front end position.
  • the base is that part which is preferably stationary and at most rotatable on a substrate, so a bottom surface is arranged. It is connected as intended with a furniture foot or has this on.
  • the support member which carries the seat in the installed state of the fitting is movable relative to the base, wherein this is done via said front and rear tab.
  • a plurality of front and rear tabs are usually provided, which are pivotable about identical pivot axis. As far as spoken in connection with this document from the front and the rear flap, so also means the majority of such tabs.
  • the base and the front and the rear flap a system of four segments is formed, which are chain-like closed by the four mutually parallel axes against each other.
  • This mobility serves the purpose that supporting part of Rear seat to shift when a person sits down on the seat piece in question.
  • This displacement of the support member to the rear of a displacement of said legrest portion is connected, which thereby pivots from a stowage position in the functional position.
  • the said chain of four segments causes the support member can only move along a defined path relative to the base.
  • Each position of the support member is assigned a specific by the length of the tabs pivoting angle of the support member.
  • the usually present in generic pieces of furniture first spring which is preferably also provided with a seat piece of furniture and its fitting according to the invention, pushes the support member in the direction of its front Endrelativlage, which pushes due to the forced coupling with the Beinauflageteil this in the direction of its stowed position.
  • This spring serves the purpose of damping the displacement of the support member from its front Endrelativlage in its rear Endrelativlage when a particular heavy person is seated on the piece of furniture in question.
  • This usually provided in generic furniture pieces spring is designed to be relatively soft in the rule.
  • this spring in principle acts to the fact that the support member is pressed in the direction of its front Endrelativlage and thereby the Beinauflageteil in the direction of its stowed position, this spring is not sufficient to reliably hold the Beinauflageteil in its stowed position. Especially when this is provided with a massive padding, the first spring can not ensure reliable reaching the stowed position.
  • the said springs which are usually provided on the outside of the cheeks, are problematic because they, like the first spring, are oriented approximately horizontally and therefore have to be tuned specifically to the first spring.
  • a change in individual components of the fitting or the fitting furniture comprehensive piece it would require significant adjustments.
  • a change in the upholstery and the mass of the padding can lead to the fact that the first spring or the known additional springs acting on the leg rest have to be redesigned.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to develop a generic furniture fitting according to the preamble of claim 1 such that it is able to hold the leg rest segment safely in its stowage position.
  • a second spring is provided, on the one hand at a third pivot point, which is spaced from the first pivot point and the second pivot point, on the support member and on the other hand, at a fourth pivot point is hinged to the base part and acts on approaching the Beinauflagenteils to its stowage position between the support member and the base member so that the Beinauflageteil is subjected to force in the direction of its stowed position.
  • the second spring is preferably provided in a front region of the fitting, ie in the region of the front flap. At this front part and the leg rest portion is provided, which is preferably connected in such a way that it always pivoted in the common direction with the front flap.
  • the second spring is arranged such that it unfolds the desired effect when the Beinauflageteil the stowed position approaches, with greater spacing of the Beinauflageteils of its stowed position unfolds no adverse effect and particularly preferably energetically almost neutral behavior.
  • the third point of articulation of the second spring that is to say the articulation point on the support part
  • This spacing is preferably between 5 mm and 50 mm.
  • the fourth pivot point of the second spring so the Anlenk Vietnameses at the base, and the first axis, ie the base-side axis of the front tab, provided that a spacing is provided here, which is preferably between 5 mm and 40 mm ,
  • the relative arrangement of the third and fourth articulation point and the first and the second axis advantageously be designed as follows.
  • a first connecting line on said projection plane which extends between the first axis and the second axis, with a second connecting line extending between the third and the fourth pivot point, in the front end relative position of the support member and thus the Stowed position of the leg support part includes a larger angle than in the rear relative position of the support member and thus in the functional position of the Beinauflageteils.
  • This larger angle causes the action of the second spring, which extends in the direction of the second connection degrees, to be particularly large in the stowage position of the leg support part, since the relevant force vector becomes comparatively large in the direction orthogonal to the first connection straight line. Due to the smaller included angle in the functional position of the leg support part, the force vector in question is substantially smaller in the functional position and thus significantly reduces the effect of the second spring.
  • the said straight lines of connection shoot in the front Endrelativ ein of the support member and thus in the stowed position of the Beinauflageteils preferably an angle of> 10, in particular> 15 °.
  • this angle is preferably less than 10 °, in particular preferably less than 5 °.
  • the pivotal movement of the legrest part in the direction of its functional position, at least during the first 30 ° of this movement, especially within the first 15 °, to a continuous decrease of the angle between the two connecting lines leads.
  • the second spring is designed and tuned to the position of the third and the fourth articulation point such that the spring force of the second spring is at least 20 N. As a result, the stowed position of the legrest part can be well ensured.
  • second springs may be provided which have identical articulation points with respect to said projection plane, it is advantageous that only one such spring is provided, which is in particular preferably arranged between two outer cheek parts of the base.
  • the spring in the installed state of the fitting can hardly be seen from the outside, so that the aesthetic impression of the relevant piece of furniture is not disturbed.
  • the spring is a helical spring, wherein in particular preferably the length of this helical spring in the relaxed state does not exceed 200 mm, in particular preferably 150 mm.
  • the invention also relates to a piece of seating furniture which is equipped with such a fitting.
  • the fitting 10 shown has a base 20 at this base are front tabs 30 and rear tabs 40 hinged about a first axis 1 and a third axis 3 pivotally.
  • the respective opposite ends of the tabs 30, 40 are hinged about a second axis 2 and a fourth axis 4 pivotally mounted on a support member 50.
  • the base is intended to be provided with a furniture foot, which allows the fixed location of the base to a substrate or the rotatable arrangement of the base against a substrate.
  • the support member 50 serves to define the seat.
  • the base 20, the support member 50, and the front tabs 30 and the rear tabs 40 together form a closed chain of four Segments which are connected to each other via said axis 1, 2, 3, 4.
  • By the front and rear tabs 30, 40 a mobility of the support member 50 is given, based on the two positions of the Fig. 1 and 2 becomes clear.
  • the support member may occupy a front longitudinal position with respect to a furniture longitudinal axis 100, which in Fig. 1 is shown, and a rear relative end position, in Fig. 2 is shown. In this case pivots due to the different lengths of the front and rear tabs 30, 40, the support member.
  • Fig. 2 In its posterior Relativendlage the Fig. 2 It is about 12 ° relative to its orientation in the front Endrelativlage the Fig. 1 tilted.
  • this Beinauflageteil 70 in a stowed position the in Fig. 1 is shown when the support member 50 is in its forward end position. Is the support member 50 in its rear end position, as in Fig. 2 is shown, the leg rest part is in a functional position. It can be used in upholstered form as a support for the legs of a person sitting on the piece of furniture.
  • leg rest member 70 The movement of the leg rest member 70 is positively coupled with the movement of the support member 50 relative to the base 20. This is achieved in that the leg support part 70 is pivotally connected not only to the pivot axis 5 to the base 20, but by means of an additional tab 60 and the support member 50th
  • the fitting 10 has a first spring 80, the rear first pivot point 81 is provided on the support member 50 and the front second pivot point 82 is provided on one of the base 20 associated traverse 22. It is worth mentioning in this regard that due of limitations of the graphics program with which the figures were created, the figures make it appear as if the first spring 80 is not hung at its rear pivot point. In the assembled state of the fitting, however, this is given.
  • the first spring 80 is in the Fig. 1 and 2 removably stretched when the support member 50 is displaced in its rear Endrelativlage.
  • This spring serves the purpose of the force application of the support member 50 in that a person sits on the seat, not to an immediate and sudden transition of the fitting from the state of Fig. 1 in the state of Fig. 2 to effect. Instead, this transition should be subdued.
  • the first spring 80 is designed. Although the first spring 80 acts to the support member 50 in the direction of its front relative end of the Fig. 1 kraftbeaufschlagt and this due to the forced coupling and the pivoting of the leg rest portion 70 in the stowed position of the Fig. 1 should cause the spring force of the first spring 80 is not enough to the leg rest portion 70 in the position of Fig. 1 to keep. However, a stronger first spring 80 would prevent the functioning of the hardware as a whole.
  • a second spring 90 is provided, which extends between a third articulation point 93 on the support part 50 and a fourth articulation point 94 on the cross member 22 of the base part 20.
  • This second spring 90 is centered on a furniture transverse axis 102, so that it is not visible when the fitting 10 is integrated into a piece of furniture.
  • Said second spring 90 serves the purpose of the leg rest portion 70 in the stowed position of Fig. 1 to draw. To make this possible, without thereby also achieve the undesirable effect that the second spring 90, the transfer of the fitting 10 and in particular the leg rest portion 70 in its functional position of the Fig. 2 makes it difficult to design the relevant geometrical conditions, the basis of the lower side representation of the Fig. 3a is explained.
  • FIG. 3a This lower illustration represents the projection plane already mentioned above, which is defined by the furniture vertical axis 104 and the furniture longitudinal axis 100.
  • Fig. 3a are the first and the second axis 1, 2 and the third pivot point 93 and the fourth pivot point 94 of the second spring 90 registered.
  • the second spring 90 is hidden as well as in Figures 3b to 3d for better comprehensibility.
  • both the second axis 2 and the third pivot point 93 are provided on the support member 50, they are mutually in the projection plane of Fig. 3a , below, invariably spaced, in this case by almost 40 mm. Since the first pivot axis 1 and the fourth pivot point 94 on a common component, namely the base 20, are provided, these are also fixedly spaced from each other, in this case by about 25 mm.
  • a first joint 111 which intersects the first and second axes 1, 2 and thus represents the orientation of the front tab 30 , Aligned almost parallel to a second connecting degrees 112, which intersects the articulation point 93, 94 and thus represents the extension of the second spring 90.
  • the included angle between the two straight lines 111, 112 is well below 10 °.
