Definitions
- the invention relates to a piece of furniture with a pivotable part, in particular an office chair or a chair, and especially for use in connection with training or playing in a virtual reality environment, according to the preamble of claim 1.
- the movement is not initiated by the user, but by motors, especially in response to a virtual environment, wherein the user visually perceives a non-existing environment by means of a helmet or glasses and the furniture on which he sits or lies, performs corresponding movements.
- Office chairs have a height-adjustable support member, which is considered in this application belonging to the chassis, a seat and a back, which are rotatable about a common vertical axis, usually the vertical axis of the support member, and at least one horizontal axis individually or are pivotable in dependence on each other.
- the invention has the object to provide a mechanism that meets these conditions in a simple, inexpensive, and mechanically stable manner.
- the mobility should be limited in a variety of ways, especially to give the urge to move the user (eg., Children with AHDS) possibility for actuation, in another embodiment, in contrast, the movement can be specified from the outside , This is particularly important in the context of gaming consoles or simulation situations using "virtual reality” (VR) in the form of VR glasses or VR helmets, etc. Also in the medical field, this can be done to facilitate patient resetting, variation the lying surfaces of patients against bedsores, etc., be favorable.
- VR virtual reality
- a mechanism having the features indicated in the characterizing part of claim 1; in other words, there is provided between the base of the furniture and the moving part of the furniture a kinematics, which allows the spherical movement of the movable part about a Momentanpol, which is always above the fixed part, in the case of a chair above the seat. It is preferred that the instantaneous poles always lie in a base-fixed central point.
- a horizontal axis for the pivoting of the seat surface is provided on a height-adjustable support member and it is a sequence of three on the seat surface formed pivotable, serially arranged arms whose last is fixedly connected to the backrest, and whose three pivot axes intersect each other at a point.
- This point is preferably in the pelvic area of the presumptive user, preferably at about the center of gravity of the user.
- the moving part moves around a Momentanpol that is not baseline. In many applications (normal office chair, etc.) this is sufficient in other applications, for example in the medical field or but not when used in conjunction with VR, then a common point of intersection is highly desirable, if not necessary.
- a second kinematics usable in the context of the invention two joint parallelograms are suitably combined with a four-bar linkage in order to achieve this mobility.
- either the plane in which the three trusses forming a movement grid are located can be designed to be pivotable about an axis, or a plurality of such movement grids are provided, as described in WO 2013/029069 of the inventor. Even with this kinematics, it is possible to come to a non-base fixed instantaneous pole, it is the above for the first kinematics said.
- FIG. 2 shows the detail II of FIG. 1 on an enlarged scale
- FIG. 3 shows the first mechanism alone, with two fixed degrees of freedom
- FIG. 4 shows the mechanism analogous to FIG. 3, with a fixed degree of freedom
- FIG. 5 shows an alternative mechanism with a fixed degree of freedom
- FIG. 6 shows a variant
- FIG. 9 shows the second mechanism
- Figs. 10, 11 and 12a-12d show a variant of the first mechanism
- an office chair 1 a chassis 3 with footboard, legs, rollers and shock damped mechanism for height adjustment, at the upper end of a support member 2 is rotatably arranged.
- the support member 2 has on the one hand, in the embodiment directed to the rear, a fin 12 on the other hand, in the embodiment directed forwardly, an approximately triangular wing 22.
- a below this construction apparent four-bar linkage (without reference numeral) establishes the statically determined position and can optionally serve to control the inclination of the seat in the rest position.
- the seat axis 17 is, as explained, stationary with respect to the seat surface 5, but not with respect to the support member 2, with which it is articulated via the struts 15 and the wing 22.
- a base part 6 (Fig. 2) is fixedly mounted.
- an intermediate part 7 is rotatably mounted about a base axis, on the intermediate part 7, in turn, a second arm 8 is rotatably mounted and on this, also rotatable, a backrest part 9.
- the axes of rotation between the base part and the intermediate part 7, between the intermediate part 7 and the second arm 8, and between the second arm 8 and the backrest part 9 intersect each other in a central point 10.
- the backrest part 9 fixed (possibly springy) is the backrest 11 (in furniture generally the swing furniture part corresponding) connected.
- the individual axes are shown in Figs.
- a mechanism not necessarily used for providing a counterforce is provided for rearward leaning: between a seat running surface 18 on the underside of the seat surface 5 and a mostly curved fin running surface 19 on the fin 12 is a spacer rod 20 each clamped with a roller 21 at the top and at the bottom. Its current position results from its leadership in a guide opening 23 in the second arm 8 (see also Fig. 3). If appropriate, it also protrudes through a further, but correspondingly larger, passage opening (not shown) in the backrest part 9, but its position is not influenced thereby, this only takes place through the guide opening 23.
- a pin 14 (optionally provided with a pusher roll, or resiliently mounted, etc.) of the back part 9 in the case in this case with a groove 12 'formed fin 12 and thus prevents the rotation the longitudinal axis L. Due to the rotatability of the pin 14 in the groove 12 'about its (not shown) longitudinal axis but there is no further axial fixation.
- FIG. 5 indicates a variant in which although the rotation is locked about the vertical axis Z, but for, at gymnastic office chairs used today again and again, both a rotation about the transverse axis Q and about the longitudinal axis L is made possible:
- the fin 12 is not fixed to the support member 2 (Fig.
- This embodiment has the advantage that the actual attachment to the support member 2, the shape of which is very freely selectable, can vary within wide limits.
- this variant is often used in other furniture, such as loungers and folding beds, often cheap.
- Fig. 6 shows a mechanism whose operation corresponds to that of FIG. 3, here you can see well, indicated by a rib, the connection of the backrest 11 on the backrest part.
- Fig. 7 shows, in the manner of an explosion sketch, the more detailed design of the individual components of the mechanism according to the invention, the base part 6, the intermediate part 7, the second arm 8 together with the guide opening 23 and the backrest part 9, again with the backrest 11 hinting rib. Due to the annular design creates a compact and mechanically extremely stable construction, which is able to transmit the large forces by the short lever arms safely. Shown are details of the camp training as circlips and rolling bearings, these can be provided in many different forms. It should also be noted with reference to Fig.
- FIG. 8 shows a variant with reference to a kneeling chair, in which a knee surface 27 is fixedly or resiliently or adjustably connected to the seat surface 5.
- a knee surface 27 is fixedly or resiliently or adjustably connected to the seat surface 5.
- the altitude of the central point 10 above the footprint 28 on which the chair rests can be clearly seen. Since the center of gravity of the user is in the region of the central point 10 and in most cases appreciably lower, it is possible for him to maintain equilibrium without fatiguing the nerves and / or muscles, nevertheless the user is animated to move, whereby in particular the area of the lower Spine better than in a pure rest position bleeding through.
- the mechanism that causes the mobility of the pivotable parts relative to the base (base axis 26), as shown in Figs. 10 and 11, the following on:
- base axis 26 At the base, via a base axis 26, a base arm 8 is pivotally mounted, on which in turn an intermediate arm 7 is pivotally (25), on which finally a seat connecting part 6 is pivotally mounted (24).
- the three pivot axes 24, 25 and 26 are designed or aligned so that they always intersect at a point, the central point 10. As already explained several times this condition does not have to be exactly fulfilled.
- the spherical movement takes place about this base-fixed central point 10.
- the seat connecting part 6 is fixed or resiliently connected to the seat surface 5 or formed on it.
- a base-fixed pin 14 projects into a seating surface-fixed recess, namely the gate opening 30, whereby the movement of the seat surface 5 and the parts of the chair associated therewith, preferably on all sides, is limited.
- a roller possibly sprung and / or made of elastic plastic, be attached to the pin to avoid hard shocks.
- the gate opening 30 and the pin 14 are clearly visible in Fig. 10 and Fig. 14, in the description and the claims also of the component having the gate opening 30, even casually referred to as "gate opening 30".
- Fig. 12 shows, in four individual representations 12 a to 12 d, the respective extreme positions of the extension of the base shaft 29 to be considered pin in the gate opening 30th
- Fig. 13 shows in bottom view the kinematics by which the central point 10 is realized, and a gate opening 30 in the form of a "real" slotted guide, without lateral freedom of movement, which has the shape of a lying “8" in this illustration.
- the cone always moves along the lines of the "8-ers", the backdrop branches out in the center.
- "Lying down” means that the two "bellies” in the left Right-axis of symmetry lie, thus having the seat in a slightly pre-bent or slightly reclined position the largest lateral rash.
- FIG. 14 shows a perspective bottom view of a variant of the invention, from which it can be clearly seen that the kinematics with its two arms between the end parts can be provided in a very flat manner and does not require more space than conventional kinematics of swivel chairs, etc According to the prior art.
- a kinematics 34 As stated above, the use of a kinematics 34 according to the Fig. 9 between the base and the movable part of the furniture is also possible.
- This consists of a joint parallelogram G, which is fixedly mounted with its edge c. Opposite the side or edge c is a four-bar linkage V, which has in common this edge G1V.
- This four-bar linkage V further has the edge adjacent to G1V common to the second parallelogram G2, thus G2V.
- the two "outer" edges A and B of this motion grid respectively pass through G1 and V or G2 and V, as indicated by the gray-filled stiffening triangles.
- the extension of the edge m of G2 which is opposite to the edge G2V, cuts the extension of c in the central point 10; as well as the extension of the diagonal of V between the outermost vertex AB and the inner vertex GG. This point of intersection, the central point 10, is always maintained under the conditions explained with each movement of the kinematics 34 in its plane. If the motion grid is made pivotable about c, as indicated by the rotary double arrow R, or if two or more mutually spatially obliquely arranged such motion grid are provided with common central point 10, a spherical movement of m is possible around this central point, and can be used for the purpose of the invention.
- pin and gate opening can be attached to the other component, it is only a simple kinematic reversal, as is familiar to any expert in the field of kinematics.
- the component with the gate opening can be designed to be easily interchangeable with another, with other scenery to allow different movement pattern without any problems.
- the invention is not limited to the illustrated examples, it may have the shapes and dimensions of the components base part - intermediate part - two arm - backrest part other shapes and dimensions and be constructed completely different in other furniture, monye the axes defined between them axes of rotation only in one point , the central point 10, intersect.
- the base axis (9) is vertical, especially in medical applications and in the case of VR application, the inclination of this axis can have positive effects.
- all materials used in furniture for pivoting mechanisms can be used, in particular steel, optionally with rolling bearings or plain bearings with bushings of matching bearing metal.
