Definitions

  • the invention relates to a seat device which comprises at least one seat element and at least one backrest element arranged at an angle thereto, wherein the backrest element is detachably fastened to the seat element by means of at least one connecting element.
  • Seating devices with a seat element and one or more backrest element are known in a variety of forms and designs (eg from the FR 2 282 247 A1 ).
  • the seat element forms the sitting or lying surface, while the backrest element serves to lean or support the person sitting or lying on it.
  • these seat devices have a substructure made of wood, plastic and / or metal, which is usually sprung in the region of the seat surface, wherein the substructure forms a kind of framework which gives stability and shape to the seat device.
  • the backrest elements are usually connected via the substructure fixed to the seat element. This has the disadvantage that the backrest elements can not be easily removed and replaced in the rule.
  • Such rigid seating devices are therefore not suitable for modular furniture systems in which it would be desirable if seat and back elements could be easily replaced and freely combined with each other.
  • Cold foam is usually referred to a foam, which is compared to conventional foam by a significantly increased elasticity characterized and produced without the application of heat.
  • the two main components of the cold foam are polyol and isocyanate. These two substances are mixed with water and various other additives and auxiliaries and subjected to a foaming process at relatively low temperatures.
  • cold foam In the production of cold foam preferably polyether is used in the base compound in place of the usual dialcohols. This results in larger pores, which provide even better ventilation properties and better permeability of moisture. In this process less heat must be added compared to the production of "hot foam” (hence the term “cold foam”). In contrast to conventional hot foam, no heat application is necessary after the foaming process in which the foam hardens. Cold foam, in contrast to the hot foam, has a relatively closed structure after the foaming process. For this reason, moisture can not penetrate into the cold foam block during curing and affect its properties. The advantage of this initially closed structure is that the cold foam - in contrast to the hot foam - can therefore be produced with significantly higher compression hardness. To give the cold foam after curing the necessary open porosity, the material is then rolled to open the cells. The resulting open porosity ensures that cold foam is permeable to air and breathable.
  • polyurethane foam has meanwhile become more and more popular in the production of upholstered furniture.
  • the seat cushions of many high-quality upholstered furniture now predominantly consist of cold foam.
  • Polyurethane foam adapts to the human body exactly and is "point elastic", ie the material is in more heavily loaded areas elastic and less loaded areas solid. Therefore, sitting and lying on it is very comfortable and ergonomic.
  • polyurethane foam is hypoallergenic because it stores only very little dust compared to other foams.
  • the recess comprises two areas, one of which extends in the vertical plane and the other in the horizontal plane through at least part of the seat element.
  • the connecting element can be held particularly stable and secure in the seat element be so that a displacement of the connecting element in either the horizontal or vertical direction is possible.
  • the two regions of the recess of the seat element can each be arranged close to the surface in at least one edge region of the seat element in order to optimally utilize the seat surface and to give the backrest element maximum stability.
  • the two regions of the recess of the seat element are arranged at least approximately at right angles to each other.
  • This embodiment allows, for example, the inclusion of an approximately L-shaped connecting element, which may be particularly suitable for certain seat devices according to the invention.
  • the seat element comprises a base body which consists entirely of foam, in particular cold foam.
  • This embodiment can be manufactured as a complete element in a single process step, without having to make and / or attach additional elements or components.
  • a high-quality seat device can be provided, which adapts to the human body exactly and is point elastic. The sitting / lying surface is very comfortable and ergonomic and hypoallergenic in this embodiment.
  • a polyurethane foam with a density between RG 30 and RG 80 for the seat element can be used according to the invention for example, a polyurethane foam with a density between RG 30 and RG 80 for the seat element.
  • foams with different densities for example a thicker layer RG 40 to which a thinner topcoat RG 50 is applied.
  • cold foams of the type 50/50 and / or 40/50 can be used according to the invention.
  • the seat element according to the invention it is further possible, for example, to use a PUR cold foam having a compression hardness between 2.0 (soft) to 5.0 (hard).
  • the seat element in particular in the area of the seat surface, can also comprise additional spring elements.
  • the backrest element comprises at least one recess which is provided for receiving a part of the connecting element.
  • the backrest element can simply be plugged onto an outstanding part of the connecting element from the seat element, wherein the connecting element is received in a form-fitting manner in the recess.
  • the connection of the seat element according to the invention with the backrest element or several backrest elements makes it possible to provide a modular seat device (or a modular seat furniture system) in which different seat elements can be freely combined with different backrest elements.
  • the seat device according to the invention can therefore be flexibly adapted to the needs and wishes of the user, wherein the connection of the individual elements without great effort and without tools is possible.
  • the recess of the backrest element can be arranged, for example, near the surface in an edge region of the backrest element.
  • the backrest element comprises a base body which consists entirely of foam, in particular cold foam.
  • This embodiment can be manufactured as a complete element in a single process step, without having to make and / or attach additional elements or components.
  • high-quality foams or high-quality cold foam can also provide a high-quality backrest element available which adapts to the human body exactly and is point elastic.
  • the support surface is very comfortable and ergonomic and hypoallergenic in this embodiment.
  • a polyurethane foam with a density of between RG 25 and RG 70 for the back element for example, a polyurethane foam with a density of between RG 25 and RG 70 for the back element.
  • foams with different densities for example a thicker layer RG 28 onto which a thinner top layer RG 40 is applied.
  • cold foams of the type 40/30 and / or 28/65 can be used.
  • a connecting element of the type mentioned above which comprises at least two legs which are arranged at least approximately at right angles to each other, wherein one of the legs for receiving in a region of the recess of the seat member and for receiving in the recess of the backrest element is.
  • the connecting element is preferably designed or dimensioned such that it can be easily introduced into the recesses and is held in a form-fitting manner in the recesses.
  • the seat device can therefore be adapted flexibly to the needs and wishes of the user.
  • the other leg is provided for receiving in another region of the recess of the seat member, so that a particularly stable connection between the seat element and backrest element (s) can be produced.
  • the two legs are plate-shaped and the connecting element as a whole has an approximately L-shaped cross-section.
  • the connecting element consists at least partially of wood and / or plastic.
  • “Foam” in the context of the invention is an artificially produced material with a cellular structure and low density, which is produced by foaming a plastic and which is compressible, d. H. by pressure, its volume can be significantly reduced.
  • Weight in the context of the invention is the weight of the material used per cubic meter. Unit of the volume weight is kilograms per cubic meter (kg / m 3 ).
  • Compressive hardness in the sense of the invention is the pressure that must act on the foam to compress it by 40% (65%, 25%) of the initial height. Unit of compressive strength is kilopascals (kPa). The higher the compressive strength of the foam, the firmer it is. The lower the compression hardness the lather, the less its ability to regain its original shape after loading.
  • FIG. 1 shows an example of a seat member 10 for a device according to the invention.
  • the seat member 10 comprises a cuboid base body 11, for example, completely or approximately completely made of foam, for example, cold foam, may exist.

  • the vertical areas 12.1, 13.1, 14.1 and the horizontal areas 12.2, 13.2, 14.2 are each arranged approximately at right angles to each other, so that the recesses 12, 13, 14 are each L-shaped.
  • the recesses 12, 13, 14 or their areas 12.1, 12.2, 13.1, 13.2, 13.1, 13.2 are each arranged in the vicinity of the respective surface of the seat element 10 (ie "near the surface"). Alternatively, however, the recesses could in each case also be arranged partially or completely further inside or in the center of the main body 11.
  • the vertical areas 12.1, 13.1, 14.1 of the recesses 12, 13, 14 are each pocket-like, ie they are open only upwards on the sitting / lying surface 15 and down on the underside 16 and otherwise completely surrounded by the material of the base body 11 , while the horizontal portions 12.2, 13.2, 14.2 of the recesses 12, 13, 14 each have a trough-like, that are down to the bottom 16 open, formed.
  • the horizontal areas 12.2, 13.2, 14.2 but also on the bottom 16 could be partially or completely covered by the material of the base body 11, where they would then be open only at the transition to the respective vertical areas 12.1, 13.1, 14.1.
