Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein System umfassend ein Fußstützenchassis und ein Sitzmöbelchassis.The present invention relates to a system comprising a footrest chassis and a seating furniture chassis.

Aus dem Stand der Technik sind aus offenkundiger Vorbenutzung Systems gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 bekannt. Fußstützenchassis werden an Sitzmöbelchassis angebracht, um den Komfort für einen Benutzer zu erhöhen. Unter einem Chassis wird dabei in dieser Beschreibung insbesondere eine Vorrichtung verstanden, an der eine Polsterung angebracht werden kann, um ein Sitzmöbel wie beispielsweise einen Sessel herzustellen, und die mechanische Funktionen des Sitzmöbels - wie etwa Ein- und Ausklappen - ermöglicht.Systems according to the preamble of claim 1 are known from the prior art from public prior use. Footrest chassis are attached to seating furniture chassis to increase comfort for a user. In this description, a chassis is understood to mean, in particular, a device to which upholstery can be attached in order to produce seating furniture such as an armchair, and which enables the seating furniture to function mechanically, such as folding it in and out.

Am Fußstützenchassis wird die eigentliche Fußstütze befestigt, auf der der Benutzer seine Füße ablegen kann. Üblicherweise sind die Fußstützenchassis aus- und einklappbar, sodass der Benutzer wählen kann, ob er seine Füße auf der Fußstütze ablegen möchte oder nicht. Im eingeklappten Zustand ist die Fußstütze unterhalb der Sitzfläche des Sitzmöbels angeordnet, sodass sie den Benutzer nicht stört. Im ausgeklappten Zustand kann der Benutzer seine Füße und je nach Modell auch zumindest teilweise seine Beine auf dem Fußstützenchassis ablegen.The actual footrest, on which the user can place his feet, is attached to the footrest chassis. Usually, the footrest chassis can be folded out and in, so that the user can choose whether or not he would like to place his feet on the footrest. In the folded-in state, the footrest is arranged below the seat of the chair so that it does not disturb the user. In the unfolded state, the user can place his feet and, depending on the model, at least some of his legs on the footrest chassis.

Während des Ein- und Ausklappvorgangs benötigen die bekannten Fußstützenchassis relativ viel Platz unterhalb der Sitzfläche des Sitzmöbels. Wenn die Fußstütze während des Ausklappvorgangs ausgefahren wird, um eine Distanz zwischen der Sitzfläche und dem der Sitzfläche abgewandten Ende der Fußstütze zu vergrößern, drückt das untere Ende der Fußstütze außerdem gegen die Waden des Benutzers, was für den Benutzer meistens unangenehm ist.During the folding and unfolding process, the known footrest chassis require a relatively large amount of space below the seat of the chair. If the footrest is extended during the unfolding process in order to increase a distance between the seat surface and the end of the footrest facing away from the seat surface, the lower end of the footrest also presses against the calves of the user, which is usually uncomfortable for the user.

Die EP 2 084 992 A2 offenbart ein Sitzmöbel mit einem sich im Wesentlichen horizontal erstreckenden Hauptsegment, an dessen Oberseite eine Sitzfläche vorgesehen ist, und einem Beinsegment, an dessen Oberseite eine Auflagefläche vorgesehen ist. Das Beinsegment ist gegenüber dem Hauptsegment zwischen einer Staustellung und einer Funktionsstellung relativbeweglich. Gegenüber den bekannten Fußstützenchassis liegt der vorliegenden Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein System zu schaffen, das während des Ein- und Ausklappvorgangs des Fußstützenchassis wenig Platz unter der Sitzfläche des Sitzmöbels benötigt und das den Komfort für den Benutzer erhöht.the EP 2 084 992 A2 discloses a seating furniture with a substantially horizontally extending main segment, on the upper side of which a seat surface is provided, and a leg segment, on the upper side of which a support surface is provided. The leg segment is relatively movable with respect to the main segment between a stowed position and a functional position. Compared to the known footrest chassis, the present invention is based on the object of creating a system which requires little space under the seat of the chair during the folding and unfolding process of the footrest chassis and which increases the comfort for the user.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch ein System gemäß Anspruch 1 gelöst. Ausführungsformen der Erfindung sind in den abhängigen Ansprüchen angegeben.This object is achieved by a system according to claim 1. Embodiments of the invention are given in the dependent claims.

Das Fußstützenchassis umfasst einen ersten Bereich, einen zweiten Bereich, zumindest ein Befestigungsmittel zur Befestigung des ersten Bereichs am Sitzmöbelchassis und ein Verbindungsmittel. Der erste und der zweite Bereich sind im am Sitzmöbelchassis angebrachten Zustand um eine durch das Befestigungsmittel definierte erste Schwenkachse schwenkbar. Der zweite Bereich ist mit dem ersten Bereich über das Verbindungsmittel verbunden.The footrest chassis comprises a first area, a second area, at least one fastening means for fastening the first area to the seating furniture chassis and a connecting means. In the state attached to the seating furniture chassis, the first and the second area can be pivoted about a first pivot axis defined by the fastening means. The second area is connected to the first area via the connecting means.

Bei einer Schwenkbewegung des ersten Bereichs und des zweiten Bereichs um die erste Schwenkachse erfolgt eine zusätzliche Schwenkbewegung des zweiten Bereichs um eine durch das Verbindungsmittel definierte zweite Schwenkachse. Die zweite Schwenkbewegung kann dabei automatisch ausgelöst werden.When the first area and the second area pivot about the first pivot axis, there is an additional pivot movement of the second area about a second pivot axis defined by the connecting means. The second pivoting movement can be triggered automatically.

Die Schwenkbewegung des zweiten Bereichs um die zweite Schwenkachse ermöglicht einen platzsparenden Ein- und Ausklappvorgang des Fußstützenchassis. Der zweite Bereich wird somit während des Ein- und Ausklappvorgangs sowohl um die erste Schwenkachse als auch um die zweite Schwenkachse geschwenkt, sodass er eine aus diesen beiden Schwenkbewegungen kombinierte Bewegung durchführt. Mit anderen Worten überlagern sich die erste und die zweite Schwenkbewegung des zweiten Bereichs. Der erste Bereich wird hingegen nur um die erste Schwenkachse und nicht um die zweite Schwenkachse geschwenkt.The pivoting movement of the second area about the second pivot axis enables the footrest chassis to be folded in and out in a space-saving manner. The second area is thus pivoted both about the first pivot axis and about the second pivot axis during the folding and unfolding process, so that it performs a movement combined from these two pivoting movements. In other words, the first and the second pivoting movement of the second area overlap. In contrast, the first area is only pivoted about the first pivot axis and not about the second pivot axis.

Außerdem kann die Schwenkbewegung des zweiten Bereichs um die zweite Schwenkachse den Vorteil haben, dass der zweite Bereich zügiger ausschwenkt und somit in Kontakt mit den Waden des Benutzers kommen kann, bevor das untere Ende der Fußstütze gegen die Waden stößt, wenn das Fußstützenchassis während des Ausklappvorgangs ausgefahren wird.In addition, the pivoting movement of the second area about the second pivot axis can have the advantage that the second area swings out more quickly and can thus come into contact with the user's calves before the lower end of the footrest hits the calves when the footrest chassis is being unfolded is extended.

Das Fußstützenchassis weist eine Auflagefläche auf, die dazu ausgebildet ist, auf einem Lagermittel des Sitzmöbelchassis aufzuliegen. Die Schwenkbewegung des ersten Bereichs und des zweiten Bereichs um die erste Schwenkachse ist durch eine Auslenkung der Auflagefläche durch das Lagermittel auslösbar. Eine derartige Kopplung des Fußstützenchassis mit dem Sitzmöbelchassis ist vorteilhaft, um die Gefahr von Beschädigungen von Gegenständen, Tieren oder Personen zu verringern, die sich beim Einklappvorgang des Fußstützenchassis im Klappweg des Fußstützenchassis befinden. Da das Fußstützenchassis mit der Auflagefläche auf dem Lagermittel aufliegt, wirkt eine vergleichbar geringe Kraft auf den Gegenstand, das Tier oder die Person, sodass die Gefahr von Beschädigungen verringert wird.The footrest chassis has a support surface which is designed to rest on a bearing means of the seating furniture chassis. The pivoting movement of the first area and the second area about the first pivot axis can be triggered by a deflection of the bearing surface by the bearing means. Such a coupling of the footrest chassis with the seating furniture chassis is advantageous in order to reduce the risk of damage to objects, animals or people who are in the folding path of the footrest chassis when the footrest chassis is being folded in. Since the footrest chassis rests with the supporting surface on the bearing means, a comparatively small force acts on the object, animal or person, so that the risk of damage is reduced.

Das Fußstützenchassis kann trotzdem mit dem zweiten Befestigungselement am Sitzmöbelchassis befestigbar sein, ohne dass sich die Gefahr von Beschädigungen erhöht. Da die Schwenkbewegung des ersten Bereichs um die erste Schwenkachse durch die Auslenkung der Auflagefläche ausgelöst wird, findet keine solche Auslenkung statt, wenn sich ein Gegenstand, ein Tier oder eine Person im Einklappweg des Fußstützenchassis befindet. Somit findet auch keine Bewegung des zweiten Befestigungselements relativ zum dritten Verbindungsmittel statt. Folglich erfolgt weder eine Schwenkbewegung um die erste, noch eine Schwenkbewegung um die zweite noch eine Schwenkbewegung um die dritte Achse.The footrest chassis can nevertheless be fastened to the seating furniture chassis with the second fastening element without increasing the risk of damage. Since the pivoting movement of the first area about the first pivot axis is triggered by the deflection of the support surface, no such deflection takes place when an object, an animal or a person is in the folding path of the footrest chassis. Thus, there is also no movement of the second fastening element relative to the third connecting means. Consequently, there is neither a pivoting movement about the first, nor a pivoting movement about the second, nor a pivoting movement about the third axis.

Es ist möglich, dass am ersten Bereich ein erster Teil einer Fußstütze befestigbar ist. Am zweiten Bereich kann ein zweiter Teil der Fußstütze befestigbar sein. Diese Zweiteiligkeit ermöglicht das zuvor beschriebene Schwenkverhalten des ersten und des zweiten Bereichs. Es ist ferner möglich, dass das Fußstützenchassis zweiteilig ausgebildet ist. In diesem Fall kann das Fußstützenchassis zwei erste Bereiche, zwei zweite Bereiche, zwei Befestigungsmittel und zwei Verbindungsmittel umfassen, wobei jeweils ein erster Bereich, ein zweiter Bereich, ein Befestigungsmittel und ein Verbindungsmittel an einem der beiden Teile des Fußstützenchassis angeordnet sein kann und wobei die Mechanik beider Teile des Fußstützenchassis gleich oder ähnlich ausgebildet ist. Auf diese Weise kann ein besonders leichtes Fußstützenchassis erreicht werden.It is possible that a first part of a footrest can be attached to the first area. A second part of the footrest can be fastened to the second area. This two-part structure enables the previously described pivoting behavior of the first and second areas. It is also possible that the footrest chassis is designed in two parts. In this case, the footrest chassis can comprise two first areas, two second areas, two fastening means and two connecting means, wherein in each case a first area, a second area, a fastening means and a connecting means can be arranged on one of the two parts of the footrest chassis and wherein the mechanism both parts of the footrest chassis is the same or similar. In this way, a particularly light footrest chassis can be achieved.

Nach der Erfindung fasst das Verbindungsmittel ein erstes Verbindungselement und ein zweites Verbindungselement um. Das erste Verbindungselement kann die zweite Schwenkachse definieren. Das zweite Verbindungselement kann dazu ausgebildet sein, die Schwenkbewegung um die zweite Schwenkachse auszulösen. Das erste Verbindungselement kann beispielsweise ein Bolzen sein, um den ein Bauteil des zweiten Bereichs drehbar ist.According to the invention, the connecting means comprises a first connecting element and a second connecting element. The first connecting element can define the second pivot axis. The second connecting element can be designed to facilitate the pivoting movement about the second Trigger swivel axis. The first connecting element can, for example, be a bolt around which a component of the second area can be rotated.

Nach einer Ausführungsform der Erfindung kann das zweite Verbindungselement hebelartig ausgebildet sein. Dieses hebelartige zweite Verbindungselement kann beispielsweise drehbar mit dem Bauteil des zweiten Bereichs verbunden sein, das um das erste Verbindungselement drehbar ist. So kann die Schwenkbewegung des zweiten Bereichs um die zweite Schwenkachse durch das zweite Verbindungselement auslösbar sein.According to one embodiment of the invention, the second connecting element can be designed like a lever. This lever-like second connecting element can, for example, be rotatably connected to the component of the second region, which is rotatable about the first connecting element. The pivoting movement of the second area about the second pivot axis can thus be triggered by the second connecting element.

Nach der Erfindung fasst das Befestigungsmittel ein erstes Befestigungselement und ein zweites Befestigungselement um. Das erste Befestigungselement kann die erste Schwenkachse definieren. Das zweite Befestigungselement kann dazu ausgebildet sein, die Schwenkbewegung des zweiten Bereichs um die zweite Schwenkachse auszulösen.According to the invention, the fastening means comprises a first fastening element and a second fastening element. The first fastening element can define the first pivot axis. The second fastening element can be designed to trigger the pivoting movement of the second area about the second pivot axis.

Nach einer Ausführungsform der Erfindung kann das zweite Befestigungselement hebelartig ausgebildet sein.According to one embodiment of the invention, the second fastening element can be designed like a lever.

Nach der Erfindung fasst das Verbindungsmittel ein drittes Verbindungselement um, das das zweite Verbindungselement mit dem zweiten Befestigungselement verbinden kann.According to the invention, the connecting means comprises a third connecting element which can connect the second connecting element to the second fastening element.

Nach einer Ausführungsform der Erfindung kann eine Schwenkbewegung des dritten Verbindungselements um eine dritte Schwenkachse durch das zweite Befestigungselement bei der Schwenkbewegung des ersten Bereichs um die erste Schwenkachse auslösbar sein. Das dritte Verbindungselement kann beispielsweise durch einen Bolzen gelagert sein, der die dritte Schwenkachse definiert. Durch eine Bewegung des zweiten Befestigungsmittels relativ zum dritten Verbindungsmittel wird das dritte Verbindungsmittel um die dritte Schwenkachse geschwenkt, wodurch das zweite Verbindungselement bewegt wird. Dies führt zur Schwenkbewegung des zweiten Bereichs um die zweite Schwenkachse. Die auslösende Relativbewegung des zweiten Befestigungsmittels kann durch die Schwenkbewegung des ersten Bereichs um die erste Schwenkachse verursacht sein.According to one embodiment of the invention, a pivoting movement of the third connecting element about a third pivot axis can be triggered by the second fastening element during the pivoting movement of the first region about the first pivot axis. The third connecting element can, for example be supported by a bolt which defines the third pivot axis. By moving the second fastening means relative to the third connection means, the third connection means is pivoted about the third pivot axis, whereby the second connection element is moved. This leads to the pivoting movement of the second area about the second pivot axis. The releasing relative movement of the second fastening means can be caused by the pivoting movement of the first area about the first pivot axis.

Nach einer Ausführungsform der Erfindung kann das zweite Befestigungselement drehbar mit dem dritten Verbindungselement verbunden sein.According to one embodiment of the invention, the second fastening element can be rotatably connected to the third connecting element.

Nach einer Ausführungsform der Erfindung kann das dritte Verbindungselement drehbar mit dem zweiten Verbindungselement verbunden sein.According to one embodiment of the invention, the third connecting element can be rotatably connected to the second connecting element.

Nach einer Ausführungsform der Erfindung kann das Fußstützenchassis ein Federmittel umfassen, das dazu ausgebildet ist, eine Federkraft auf die Auflagefläche auszuüben, sodass die Auflagefläche gegen das Lagermittel gedrückt wird. Auf diese Weise wird erreicht, dass die Auflagefläche mit einer gewissen Kraft gegen das Lagermittel drückt, die ausreichend ist, damit der Ein- und Ausklappvorgang des Fußstützenchassis erfolgen kann. Falls sich eine Person, ein Tier oder ein Gegenstand im Klappweg des Fußstützenchassis befindet, wirkt lediglich die Federkraft auf die Person, das Tier oder den Gegenstand. Die Federkraft kann dabei so gering gewählt werden, dass die Gefahr von Beschädigungen gering ist.According to one embodiment of the invention, the footrest chassis can comprise a spring means which is designed to exert a spring force on the support surface, so that the support surface is pressed against the bearing means. In this way it is achieved that the support surface presses against the bearing means with a certain force which is sufficient so that the folding and unfolding process of the footrest chassis can take place. If there is a person, an animal or an object in the folding path of the footrest chassis, only the spring force acts on the person, the animal or the object. The spring force can be selected to be so low that the risk of damage is low.

Ein Ausklappvorgang des Fußstützenchassis 100 kann durch Betrachtung der Figuren in der Reihenfolge 1 bis 6 nachvollzogen. Ein Einklappvorgang erfolgt genau umgekehrt, sodass er durch Betrachtung der Figuren in der Reihenfolge 6 bis 1 nachvollzogen werden kann.A process of unfolding the footrest chassis 100 can be followed by looking at the figures in the order 1 to 6. A folding process takes place in exactly the opposite way, so that it can be understood by looking at the figures in the order 6 to 1.

Das Fußstützenchassis 100 ist an einem Sitzmöbelchassis 103 befestigt und umfasst zwei nur durch das Sitzmöbelchassis 103 miteinander verbundene Teile. Die beiden Teile sind parallel zueinander angeordnet und sind gleich aufgebaut, sodass auch der Ein- und Ausklappvorgang beider Teile in gleicher Weise erfolgt. Eine Fußstütze kann an beiden Teilen befestigt werden und so die beiden Teile miteinander verbinden.The footrest chassis 100 is fastened to a seating furniture chassis 103 and comprises two parts connected to one another only by the seating furniture chassis 103. The two parts are arranged parallel to each other and have the same structure, so that both parts are folded in and out in the same way. A footrest can be attached to both parts and thus connect the two parts together.

Das Fußstützenchassis 100 umfasst einen ersten Bereich 101 und einen zweiten Bereich 102. Am ersten Bereich 101 kann ein erster Teil einer zweiteiligen Fußstütze befestigt werden. Am zweiten Bereich 102 kann ein zweiter Teil der Fußstütze befestigt werden. Das Fußstützenchassis 100 ist somit für eine zweigeteilte Fußstütze ausgebildet.The footrest chassis 100 comprises a first area 101 and a second area 102. A first part of a two-part footrest can be attached to the first area 101. A second part of the footrest can be attached to the second area 102. The footrest chassis 100 is thus designed for a two-part footrest.

Der erste Bereich 101 ist mit einem ersten Befestigungselement 104 am Sitzmöbelchassis 103 befestigt. Das erste Befestigungselement 104 ist bolzenartig ausgebildet und definiert eine erste Schwenkachse, um die sowohl der erste Bereich 101 als auch der zweite Bereich 102 während des Ausklappvorgangs geschwenkt wird. Außerdem weist der erste Bereich 101 eine Auflagefläche 200 auf, die in Kontakt mit einem Lagermittel 201 des Sitzmöbelchassis 103 steht.The first area 101 is fastened to the seating furniture chassis 103 with a first fastening element 104. The first fastening element 104 is designed like a bolt and defines a first pivot axis about which both the first area 101 and the second area 102 are pivoted during the unfolding process. In addition, the first area 101 has a support surface 200 which is in contact with a bearing means 201 of the seating furniture chassis 103.

Durch Bewegung des Lagermittels 201 wird die Schwenkbewegung des ersten Bereichs 101 um die erste Schwenkachse ausgelöst.The pivoting movement of the first area 101 about the first pivot axis is triggered by the movement of the bearing means 201.

Die Auflagefläche 200 wird durch ein Federmittel gegen das Lagermittel 201 gedrückt, sodass auf einen Gegenstand, ein Tier oder eine Person lediglich die Federkraft wirkt, wenn der Gegenstand, das Tier oder die Person sich im Einklappweg des Fußstützenchassis 100 befindet.The support surface 200 is pressed by a spring means against the bearing means 201, so that only the spring force acts on an object, an animal or a person when the object, the animal or the person is in the folding path of the footrest chassis 100.

Außerdem weist das Fußstützenchassis 100 ein zweites Befestigungselement 105 auf, das am Sitzmöbelchassis 103 befestigt ist. Das zweite Befestigungselement 105 ist hebelartig ausgebildet.In addition, the footrest chassis 100 has a second fastening element 105 which is fastened to the seating furniture chassis 103. The second fastening element 105 is designed like a lever.

Der zweite Bereich ist über ein erstes Verbindungsmittel 106 und ein zweites Verbindungsmittel 107 mit dem ersten Bereich 101 verbunden. Das erste Verbindungsmittel 106 ist bolzenartig ausgebildet und definiert eine zweite Schwenkachse, um das der zweite Bereich 102 geschwenkt wird. Das zweite Verbindungsmittel 107 ist hebelartig ausgebildet. Außerdem umfasst das Fußstützenchassis 100 ein drittes Verbindungsmittel 108, das jeweils drehbar mit dem zweiten Befestigungsmittel 105 und mit dem zweiten Verbindungsmittel 107 verbunden ist. Das zweite Verbindungsmittel 106 ist außerdem drehbar mit dem zweiten Bereich 102 verbunden.The second area is connected to the first area 101 via a first connection means 106 and a second connection means 107. The first connecting means 106 is designed in the manner of a bolt and defines a second pivot axis about which the second region 102 is pivoted. The second connecting means 107 is designed like a lever. In addition, the footrest chassis 100 comprises a third connecting means 108, which is each rotatably connected to the second fastening means 105 and to the second connecting means 107. The second connecting means 106 is also rotatably connected to the second region 102.

Beim Ausklappen des Fußstützenchassis 100 wird das Lagermittel 201 nach vorne geschoben, sodass die Auflagefläche 200 und der erste Bereich 101 um die erste Schwenkachse nach oben geschwenkt wird. Diese Schwenkbewegung erfolgt gegen den Uhrzeigersinn und verursacht eine Relativbewegung zwischen dem zweiten Befestigungselement 105 und dem dritten Verbindungselement 108, woraus eine Schwenkbewegung des dritten Verbindungselements 108 resultiert. Die Schwenkrichtung des dritten Verbindungselements 108 ist dabei der Schwenkrichtung des ersten Bereichs entgegengesetzt.When the footrest chassis 100 is unfolded, the bearing means 201 is pushed forward so that the support surface 200 and the first area 101 are pivoted upward about the first pivot axis. This pivoting movement takes place counterclockwise and causes a relative movement between the second fastening element 105 and the third connection element 108, from which a pivoting movement of the third connection element 108 results. The pivoting direction of the third connecting element 108 is opposite to the pivoting direction of the first area.

Die Schwenkbewegung des dritten Verbindungsmittels 108 verursacht eine Relativbewegung zwischen dem zweiten Verbindungsmittel 107 und dem ersten Verbindungsmittel 106, sodass der zweite Bereich 102 um die durch das erste Verbindungsmittel 106 definierte zweite geschwenkt wird. Diese Schwenkbewegung erfolgt in derselben Schwenkrichtung wie die Schwenkbewegung des ersten Bereichs 101 um die erste Schwenkachse.The pivoting movement of the third connecting means 108 causes a relative movement between the second connecting means 107 and the first connecting means 106, so that the second region 102 is pivoted about the second area defined by the first connecting means 106. This pivoting movement takes place in the same pivoting direction as the pivoting movement of the first region 101 about the first pivot axis.

Der zweite Bereich 102 wird also durch zwei überlagerte Schwenkbewegungen um die erste Schwenkachse und um die zweite Schwenkachse bewegt.The second area 102 is therefore moved by two superimposed pivot movements about the first pivot axis and about the second pivot axis.

Durch die zuvor beschriebene Mechanik werden insbesondere zwei Vorteile erreicht. Zum einen benötigt das Fußstützenchassis 100 vergleichsweise wenig Raum unterhalb der Sitzfläche des Sitzmöbels für den Schwenkvorgang. Zum anderen kann das Fußstützenchassis 100 besonders gut bei Sitzmöbelchassis 103 verwendet werden, bei denen das Fußstützenchassis während des Ein- und Ausklappvorgangs ein- bzw. ausgefahren wird. Dieser Vorteil wird besonders deutlich bei Betrachtung der Figuren 2 bis 4. Der zweite Bereich 102 wird derart ausgeklappt, dass die Füße eines Benutzers in Kontakt mit der Fußstütze kommen, bevor die Fußstütze von hinten die Beine des Benutzers berührt. Dies ist besonders angenehm für Benutzer, da ein unangenehmer punktueller Kontakt der Waden mit der Fußstütze vermieden wird.The mechanics described above achieve two advantages in particular. On the one hand, the footrest chassis 100 requires comparatively little space below the seat surface of the chair for the pivoting process. On the other hand, the footrest chassis 100 can be used particularly well in seating furniture chassis 103 in which the footrest chassis is extended or retracted during the folding and unfolding process. This advantage becomes particularly evident when looking at the Figures 2 to 4 . The second area 102 is unfolded in such a way that the feet of a user come into contact with the footrest before the footrest touches the legs of the user from behind. This is particularly convenient for users, since uncomfortable point contact between the calves and the footrest is avoided.
