Definitions
- the present invention relates to a seat whose structure responds dynamically to the backing of a user against the back of the seat.
- the seat has a mechanism for simultaneously adjusting the inclination of the backrest and the seat a few degrees when a user leans.
- Office chairs have evolved from simple seats to sophisticated seating where the user can vary the height of his seat, the degree of tilting of his backrest, the pivoting of his armrests, etc. There are already seats with a synchronization of movements between the backrest and the seat, but the timing mechanism is relatively complex and bulky, leading to additional costs and a lack of aesthetics.
- the object of the present invention is to design a mechanism allowing the user to tilt both the backrest and the seat simply when he leans against the seat, so that the entirety of his body tilts and not only his back, and this by means of a device comprising a minimum of components, simple implementation, and requiring no specific control means of the button, handle, handle, etc. type.
- the seat according to the invention comprises, in a conventional manner, a seat and a folder of substantially perpendicular shape and connected to a base.
- the front portion of the distal seat backrest is mounted on the base via a pivot connection along a parallel axis axis at the intersection of the planes of the folder and the seat; the backrest is connected to the seat by means of a flexible intermediate piece having a portion of a course parallel to the seat and fixed to the base in the vicinity of the pivot connection of the seat with a view to a pivoting movement; the intermediate piece by elastic deformation about an axis adjacent and parallel to the pivot axis of the seat;
- the rear portion of the proximal seat of the backrest rests on said intermediate piece by means of at least one vertically-shaped coupling element whose upper end is fixed to the seat and the lower end rests on the workpiece intermediate.
- the main idea of this invention is to synchronize the movements of the seat and backrest.
- the inclination of the backrest following a pressure force exerted by the user causes synchronization pivoting the seat clockwise with a downward inclination of the rear portion of the seat.
- This synchronization is achieved via the flexible intermediate piece which comprises a first portion attached to the back of the backrest, the second portion of the flexible intermediate piece being parallel to the seat and fixed to the base and connected to the lower surface of the the seat, the angle formed between the first portion and the second portion being adapted to vary depending on the pressure force exerted by a user on the folder.
- This flexible intermediate piece thus directly connects the backrest to the seat.
- the first portion when backing the user, the first portion will tend to tilt back, while the second portion will tend to bow down.
- This double tilting allows the user to be better wedged and held in his seat, without arching the lower back when he tilts the back as the pelvis follows the movement of the back.
- the flexibility of the intermediate part allows an inclination of the seat adapted to the weight of the user. Since all the synchronized inclination is based on the flexibility of the intermediate piece, no additional adjustment mechanism is necessary, only the management of the pressure force on the backrest by the user can tilt more or less the backrest and seat.
- the flexible intermediate piece consists of at least one flexible L-shaped blade whose two arms respectively correspond to said two portions. More specifically, the free end of the first portion is fixed to the back of the folder, the free end of the second portion is attached to a cross member belonging to the base, and the central portion of the second portion is connected to the portion back of the seat via two coupling studs.
- this flexible intermediate piece consists of a single central flexible blade disposed in the vertical median plane of the seat, while in another variant, it consists of two lateral flexible blades arranged on either side of the vertical median plane of the seat. seat.
- the first portion of the flexible intermediate piece consists of a U-shaped frame framing the lower part of the backrest, and the second portion consists of a plate extending under the seat, whose end front is attached to a cross member belonging to the base and the central portion is connected to the rear portion of the seat via two coupling studs.
- the frame has fastening means to the plate consisting of a fixing tab of horizontal shape superimposed on the rear end of the plate, the fixing being made by screwing for example.
- the first portion of the flexible intermediate piece consists of a rounded headband embracing the back of the backrest, passing over sidebars belonging to the base, and joining the second portion consisting of a plate. extending under the seat and whose front end is fixed to a cross member belonging to the base, an operating clearance allowing pivoting of the seat being provided between the headband and the side bars, the latter acting as limiting abutment the pivoting of the seat.
- a stop limits the pivoting of the seat. This makes it possible to avoid degrading the intermediate piece by unwanted plastic deformation, the tilting being limited to an elastic deformation.
- said pivot connection between the seat and the base is made by means of a pivot, or silentblocs, or ball joints.
- the flexible intermediate piece is secured to the backrest and the base by means of a fastener type screw-nut. It is therefore a rigid attachment, the tilting being achieved solely through the elastic deformation of the intermediate part.
- FIG. 1 and 2 are schematic views of the seat according to the invention, in nominal position and inclined position respectively;
- FIG. 3 and 4 show a first possible configuration of the invention, with respectively a first variant with a single flexible blade and a second variant with two flexible blades;
- FIG. 5 shows a second possible configuration of the invention
- the seat consists of a seat (2), a backrest (1) and a base or frame-support having a front bar (3a) connecting the upper ends of two feet ( 3) front and two side bars (3b) connecting the upper ends of two feet (3) right and two feet (3) left respectively. There is not necessarily a rear bar connecting the two feet (3) rear.
- the seat (2) is fixed to the support frame pivotally at the front bar (3a). This pivot connection is made by means of a pivot, or silentblocs, or ball joints.
- the rear portion of the seat (2) is pivotable in the free space defined between the upper ends of the two feet (3) rear.
- the seat (2) is connected to the backrest (1) via a flexible intermediate piece (4) able to deform in order to synchronize the rear tilting movement of the backrest (1) with a proportional rear tilting movement of the seat (2).
- the intermediate piece (4) and the backrest (1) are mechanically linked by a rigid attachment of the screw-nut type preferably.
- This intermediate piece (4) is fixed on the other hand to the front of the support frame at a crossbar (6) parallel to the front bar (3a).
- the attachment is rigid, and made by screwing.
- the intermediate piece (4) is also connected to the rear portion of the seat (2), via coupling pins (5) of vertical appearance whose upper end is fixed under the seat (2) and the lower end rests on the intermediate piece (4). This contact allows the seat (2) to follow the deformation movement of the intermediate piece (4) according to the weight of the user.
- the intermediate piece (4) consists of an L-shaped flexible blade, of which a horizontal branch (4b) is fixed to the support frame at the cross-member (6) and connected to the seat (2) as described above, and the other branch of vertical appearance (4a) extends to the back of the backrest (1) and is fixed rigidly.
- the tilting of the backrest (1) towards the rear causes a bending of the vertical leg (4a) of the blade (4) towards the rear, associated with a variation of the angle between the two branches (4a, 4b).
- the central flexible blade (4) is replaced by two flexible lateral blades (4) arranged on either side of the vertical median plane of the backrest.
- the attachment of the blades (4) to the seat and the principle of synchronization of movements between the backrest (1) and the seat (2) is identical to the variant with a single blade (4).
- the intermediate part consists of:
- a plate (4b) of horizontal shape attached to the front cross member (6) of the support frame and connected to the seat (2) via two coupling pads (5); - A U-shaped frame (4a) surrounding the lower part of the backrest (1) and having a tongue (7) for fixing horizontal appearance able to be superimposed on the rear end of the plate (4b) and to be fixed by screwing for example.
- the two lateral branches of the frame (4a) follow the tilting movement of the backrest (1), and the angle between the frame (4a) and the plate (4b) varies due to their respective flexibilities.
- the tongue (7) works in torsion during the tilting of the backrest (1), and thus allows the plate (4b) to bend downwards so that the seat (2) pivots clockwise.
- the flexible part (4) has a particular shape surrounding the back of the backrest (1).
- the intermediate piece (4) consists of a rounded headband (4a) hugging the back of the backrest (1), then coming on the lateral sides of the seat by interposing between the side bars (3b) and the seat (2), and extending into a plate (4b) extending under the seat.
- IPEA / EP is fixed on the front cross member (6) of the support frame and is connected to the seat (2) via two coupling studs (5) not visible in these figures.
- the strip (4a) has two grooves (8) inside which the side bars (3b) are inserted, a free space (9) between the bottom of each groove (8) and the side bar (3b). ) corresponding being provided to allow a play of operation between the strip (4a) and the support frame. In maximum tilting position, the bottom of the grooves abuts against the side bars (3b), thereby limiting the pivoting of the seat (2).
- a stop can be placed in the seat to limit the pivoting of the seat (2), and avoid plastic deformation of the various components.
