Description
- The present invention relates to a device for adjusting the position of an armrest of a chair.
- Currently it is known to provide chairs which comprise a seat, a back and lateral armrests on which the user can rest his forearms.
- Armrests are known which can adjust their position substantially along an axis that is vertical with respect to the ground or can rotate substantially on a plane that is horizontal with respect to the ground.
- However, these armrests of a known type have a drawback: since the back can oscillate and the seat can move, the user can assume a posture that causes the arms to be anatomically arranged on the armrests in a manner that creates tensions or fatigue since the arms are excessively or insufficiently flexed.
- The aim of the present invention is therefore to solve the described technical problems, eliminating the drawbacks of the cited background art and thus providing a device that allows to achieve the optimum adjustment of the position of an armrest of a chair regardless of the position assumed by the back or by the seat.
- Within this aim, an object of the invention is to provide a device in which this adjustment and its variation can be achieved rapidly and effectively.
- Another object of the invention is to obtain a device in which this adjustment can be achieved and kept stable in a chosen position.
- Another object of the invention is to obtain a device that can also be applied to chairs of a known type.
- Another object of the invention is to obtain a device that is structurally simple, has low manufacturing costs and can be provided with ordinary known systems.
- This aim and these objects, as well as others which will become better apparent hereinafter, are achieved by a device for adjusting the position of an armrest of a chair, characterized in that it has a clamp, stably associated with said chair, which interacts selectively with a vertical position selector, associated with a box-like body which constitutes said armrest, said vertical position selector being actuatable by virtue of means which can be activated by the user and comprise a slider which can slide below said armrest and is adapted to activate/deactivate the actuation of said vertical position selector.

armrest 2 associated with achair 3. - The
armrest 2 is provided with a box-like body 4 which is composed of a lower half-shell 5 and an upper half-shell 6, which can be mutually coupled detachably. - The lower half-
shell 5 has, at arear end 7, abase 8 that protrudes downward from it, saidbase 8 having means adapted to allow its rotatable connection to asupport 9 associated with theframe 10 of thechair 3. - The device 1 comprises a
clamp 11, which is arranged inside said lower half-shell 5 and is provided with afirst body 12, which is substantially shaped like a parallelepiped and below which twofirst tabs second tabs base 8, and acentral nut 15, which acts as a seat for thestem 16 of afirst pivot 17 associated rotatably with theunderlying base 8. - An
annular groove 19 is provided on thestem 16, proximate to itsterminal end 18 that interacts with thecentral nut 15, and acts as a seat for afirst washer 20 which is adapted to interact rotatably with the lower surface of thecentral nut 15 of thebody 12. - A
second tab 22 shaped substantially like a parallelepiped protrudes from a lateral end of thefirst body 12, in the direction of theseat 21 thechair 3, and is directed upward according to a chosen inclination; multiplefirst teeth 23 are provided at the end of the second tab, protrude radially and are arranged along a circular arc that is centered on afirst hole 24 that is provided transversely to thefirst body 12 in a region that lies approximately above thecentral nut 15. - The
first teeth 23 have a width that is approximately equal to half the width of thesecond tab 22. - Inside the
first hole 24 there is asecond pivot 25 for the pivoting of thewings 26 of ashell 27 which can be associated below the upper half-shell 6 and is contained therein and partially in the lower half-shell 5. - The
shell 27 is connected by snap action to the upper half-shell 6 and, by means offirst screws shell 5, which in turn is connected to thebase 8. - The
clamp 11 selectively interacts with avertical position selector 29, which is associated with theboxlike body 4 that constitutes thearmrest 2; in particular, thevertical position selector 29 has asecond body 30 that is shaped substantially like a parallelepiped with a rectangular base on which afirst slot 31 is provided transversely which acts as a seat for asecond screw 32 for connection to said overlyingshell 27. - A
third tab 33 protrudes in the direction of saidsecond tab 22 from thesecond body 30 of thevertical position selector 29, adjacent to theclamp 11, and multiplesecond teeth 34 are provided and protrude radially at the end of thethird tab 33 that is directed toward saidclamp 11 and are arranged so as to mesh selectively with thefirst teeth 23 of the clamp following a transverse movement that can be imparted to thevertical position selector 29 with respect to theclamp 11. - This transverse movement is actuated by a
slider 35 which can slide in a lower region and longitudinally with respect to the lower half-shell 5 since it has awing 36, which can be gripped by the user, from which aprotrusion 37 protrudes which is accommodated slidingly within aseat 38 provided longitudinally to the lower half-shell 5, connected at the free end to alongitudinal bar 39 which in turn is slidingly associated longitudinally and internally with respect to the lower half-shell 5. - The
longitudinal bar 39 has, at anend 40 that is directed oppositely with respect to theclamp 11, ahole 41 which acts as a seat for athird screw 42 for connection to theprotrusion 37 of theslider 35. - At the
end 43 of thelongitudinal bar 39 that is directed toward theclamp 11 there is afourth tab 44, which has a substantially square plan shape and lies on a plane that is lower than the plane of arrangement of thesecond body 30. - A
second slot 45 is provided on thefourth tab 44 and is inclined, substantially along a diagonal, with respect to thefourth tab 44. - A
third pivot 46 acts at thesecond slot 45 and protrudes below thesecond body 30 in a region that is adjacent to thefirst slot 31. - A longitudinal movement of the
slider 35 is matched by a movement of thetab 44 that entrains thethird pivot 46, which imposes a transverse movement to thesecond body 30 by such an extent as to disengage thesecond teeth 34 from thefirst teeth 23; by doing so it is possible to impose an upward or downward rotation to thearmrest 2. - There is a first elastically
deformable element 47, interposed between afirst wing 48 which protrudes from thelongitudinal bar 39 proximate to thethird screw 42, and there is asecond wing 49, which protrudes from the lower half-shell 5 at a third slot provided axially to thelongitudinal bar 39. - There is a second elastically
deformable element 51 interposed between theinternal side wall 52 of the lower half-shell 5, toward which thesecond body 30 moves, and apivot 53 which protrudes from the facing side of thesecond body 30. - The first and second elastically
deformable elements slider 35 and thesecond body 30, respectively, to return to their position once the actuation of theslider 35 by the user has ceased. - There is a pair of
fourth screws shell 5 to theshell 27, the screws being preferably arranged to the side of theseat 38. - Operation is as follows: starting from the condition shown in
Figure 6 , when the user wishes to change the inclination of thearmrest 2 it is sufficient for him to grip theslider 35 with his fingers, pulling it toward its free end. - By doing so, a longitudinal movement is imposed on the
longitudinal bar 39, which in turn imposes a transverse movement on thesecond body 30 of thevertical position selector 29 until thefirst teeth 23 are disengaged from thesecond teeth 34. - It thus possible to raise or lower the
armrest 2 to the desired position. - When the user releases the
slider 35, the first elasticallydeformable element 47 and the second elasticallydeformable element 51 return to its position thesecond body 30 so that thefirst teeth 23 resume engaging thesecond teeth 34. - It has thus been found that the invention has achieved the intended aim and objects, a device having been obtained which allows to achieve the optimum adjustment of the position of an armrest of a chair regardless of the position assumed by the back or by the seat, so that the user can arrange his arms in an anatomically correct or preferred condition.
- This adjustment and its variation can be achieved rapidly and effectively and can be achieved and kept stable in a chosen position.
- Furthermore, the device can also be applied to chairs of a known type and is structurally simple, has low manufacturing costs, and can be provided with ordinary known systems.
