Definitions

  • the invention relates to a chair according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • a chair of the type mentioned above is known from the patent document EN 10 2007 059 985 B3
  • This chair consists of a chair base on which a seat and a backrest connected to the seat via a synchronous mechanism are movably mounted, with a spring pressing the seat into a basic position of the chair and an abutment rotatably mounted on the chair base being provided, with the abutment being designed to interact with the seat and having a bearing surface on which one end of the spring can be positioned in different positions to set an effective spring force.
  • the bearing surface of the abutment has so-called locking recesses into which a locking pin engages. In order to set the desired effective spring force, the locking pin is moved accordingly with the help of two sliding bearings and a complex planetary gear.
  • Other chairs of this type are made of DE102015101546A1 and DE102015101545A1 known.
  • the invention is based on the object of improving a chair of the type mentioned at the beginning.
  • a chair with a structurally less complex mechanism for adjusting the effective spring force is to be created.
  • an adjusting element which exclusively transmits tensile forces is provided for determining the position of one end of the spring on the bearing surface.
  • the solution according to the invention is characterized in that the position is determined with the aid of an adjusting element, which is used to pull on the spring or one end of it in order to set the desired effective spring force.
  • the adjusting element is particularly preferably designed as a chain or rope, as will be explained in more detail below, i.e. as an element which is referred to in technical mechanics as being pliable, since it is particularly unsuitable for transmitting compressive forces or moments.
  • the use of such an adjusting element brings with it the possibility of providing a comparatively simple adjusting mechanism for actuating the adjusting element, which will also be explained in more detail below.
  • the chair shown consists, in a known manner, of a chair base 1, preferably provided with a foot 20, on which a seat 2 and a backrest 3 connected to the seat 2 via a synchronous mechanism are movably mounted, wherein a spring 4 pressing the seat 2 into a basic position of the chair and an abutment 5 rotatably mounted on the chair base 1 are provided, wherein the abutment 5 is designed to interact with the seat 2 and has a bearing surface 5.1 on which one end of the spring 4 can be positioned in different positions to set an effective spring force.
  • two seat supports 10 connected to one another via a connecting element 7 are particularly preferably provided, wherein the chair base 1 is arranged between the two seat supports 10 and the connecting element 7 is slidably mounted on the chair base 1.
  • a backrest support 9 which can be pivoted about a horizontal axis is mounted on the chair base 1.
  • the backrest support 9 and the two seat supports 10 are preferably connected to one another via two swivel joints 11 which are movable independently of the chair base 1 and have horizontal axes.
  • the connecting element 7 operatively connected to the seat 2 via the seat supports 10 is operatively connected to the abutment 5 for the spring 4.
  • the actuating element 6 is designed either as a chain (see Figures 1 to 14) or a rope (not separately shown).
  • a groove 16 is particularly preferably provided on the abutment 5 (see in particular Figure 9 ) is provided. This is wider than the adjusting element 6 so that the latter can be moved transversely in the groove 16.
  • an adjusting wheel 17 for adjusting the adjusting element 6 is particularly preferably provided on the abutment 5, said adjusting wheel having a rotation axis that runs horizontally when the chair is in the upright position (i.e. in the position in which it is used). It is also particularly preferably provided that the adjusting wheel 17 is arranged on a rotary shaft 22 that can be rotated on the abutment 5 if necessary.
  • the abutment 5 is designed to cooperate on the one hand with the connecting element 7 connected to a front edge of the seat 2 and on the other hand with one end of the spring 4.
  • the connecting element 7 that cooperates with the abutment 5 is designed to be guided in a longitudinal guide 8 and is arranged in a highest position of the longitudinal guide 8 in the basic position of the seat.
  • the longitudinal guide 8 for the connecting element 7 is designed to slope downwards from a front edge of the seat 2 in the direction of the backrest 3 when the chair is in the upright position.
  • this is in the upright position of the Chair is designed to slope downwards from a front edge of the seat 2 to the horizontal at an angle of approximately 10° towards the backrest 3. Furthermore, it is preferably provided that the longitudinal guide 8 is designed to be semicircular at both of its ends, matching the connecting element 7 designed as a cylindrical rod.
  • the spring 4 mentioned at the beginning which is particularly preferably designed as a helical compression spring and/or in whose interior a telescopic guide 14 is arranged, it is also particularly preferred that one end of the spring 4 is connected to the abutment 5 and another end of the spring 4 is connected to a pivot bearing 12 provided on the chair base 1. Looking at it in a little more detail, the spring 4 is designed to be rotatable about a horizontal axis around the pivot bearing 12.
  • a second spring 18, preferably also designed as a helical compression spring, is particularly preferably arranged between the connecting element 7 and the chair base 1 to provide a defined preload, in the interior of which a telescopic guide 19 is also preferably arranged.
  • a telescopic guide 19 is also preferably arranged.
  • the longitudinal axes (along which the compression of the springs takes place) of the spring 4 and the second spring 18 lie in planes parallel to each other.
  • a pivot bearing 15 is particularly preferably provided on the chair base 1 (see in particular Figure 10 ).
  • This pivot bearing 15, which preferably has a horizontal axis of rotation when the chair is in the upright position, is also arranged at an end of the abutment 5 facing away from the seat.
  • pivot bearing 15 is arranged at one end of the abutment 5 and the connecting element 7 is designed to engage the other end of the abutment 5.
  • the above-mentioned bearing surface 5.1 of the abutment 5, which is preferably divided into two elongated partial surfaces by the above-mentioned groove 16, is designed to be concavely curved towards the spring 4.
  • the spring 4 is designed to be adjacent to the bearing surface 5.1 at its abutment-side end with a slide 13 that can be moved relative to the bearing surface 5.1.
  • the slide 13, which is preferably designed to be firmly connected to the actuating element 6, is designed to be convexly curved on the abutment side to match the bearing surface 5.1.
  • a rotation of the abutment 5 about its pivot bearing 15 causes a compression of the spring 4.
  • a position of the spring 4 adjacent to the pivot bearing 15 of the abutment 5 is designed to cause a lower compression of the spring 4 than a position of the spring 4 distanced from the pivot bearing 15.
  • the bearing surface 5.1 is provided with a stop for the spring 4 or the slide 13, respectively, seen in both adjustment directions of the spring 4.
  • a force transmission device 21 is also arranged between the connecting element 7 and the abutment 5. This serves, as can be seen in particular from the Figures 7 and 8 and the following description, that the introduction of the force from the connecting element 7 to the abutment 5 through the gearing of the force transmission device 21, which will be explained later, always takes place parallel to the longitudinal guide 8 and thus practically without loss.
  • the abutment 5 has a first toothing 5.2 with preferably at least three teeth on the force transmission device side, that the force transmission device 21 has a second toothing 21.1 with preferably at least four teeth on the abutment side and that the two toothings 5.2, 21.1 are each convexly curved towards each other and at least partially in engagement with each other.
  • the abutment 5 is formed in an arc shape, in particular in a circular arc shape, and the toothing 5.2 on the force transmission device side is a convex outer side and the bearing surface 5.1 for the spring 4 is arranged on a concave inner side of the abutment 5.
  • the force transmission device 21 is mounted on the connecting element 7 so as to be rotatable about an axis that is horizontally oriented when the chair is in an upright position.
  • the force transmission device 21 has a cylindrical through-opening that encloses the connecting element 7, in particular the aforementioned rod.
  • the force transmission device 21 is formed from two parts, each with a second toothing 21.1, leaving a free space between them for the actuating element 6.
  • a displacement of the connecting element 7 is designed to cause a displacement and rotation of the force transmission device 21.
  • a displacement and rotation of the force transmission device 21 is designed to cause a rotation of the abutment 5 about its pivot bearing 15.
  • the adjusting element 6, which is designed to be self-contained, is guided around the abutment 5 or is designed to enclose this and preferably also the adjusting wheel 17 to be explained below.
  • the adjusting element 6 is designed as a rope, in particular a wire rope, and the adjusting wheel 17 has a guide groove that fits the rope and prevents the rope from slipping (in addition, cylinders or the like can be attached to the rope, for example, which prevent the adjusting wheel 17 from slipping).
  • the adjusting wheel 17 has an axis of rotation that runs parallel to the pivot bearing 15 of the abutment 5.
  • an adjusting mechanism is also particularly preferably provided, which in particular includes the above-mentioned rotary shaft 22.
  • a spring element 23 is particularly preferably provided for displacing the rotary shaft 22 into a first axial position.
  • a first locking element 22.1 is particularly preferably provided on the rotary shaft 22, which in the first axial position is designed to interact with a second locking element 5.3 provided on the abutment 5.
  • the Crown gear toothing is designed as sawtooth toothing, in such a way that a movement of the carriage 13 on the bearing surface 5.1 in the direction of the pivot bearing 15 is or will be reliably prevented.
  • an adjusting rod 24 is preferably provided which is operatively connected to the rotary shaft 22.
  • an adjusting mechanism is preferably provided to effect an axial displacement of the rotary shaft 22 into a second axial position. This is preferably formed from a pin 24.1 provided on the adjusting rod 24 and from a curved guide 22.2 provided on the rotary shaft 22 and cooperating with the pin 24.1.
  • the rotary shaft 22 preferably has a through hole through which part of the adjusting rod 24 passes.
  • the adjusting rod 24 is preferably mounted on the abutment 5 so that it can rotate but cannot move axially.
  • a rotary movement on the adjusting rod 24 causes the pin 24.1 to move along a wall of the curved guide 22.2. This in turn leads to the aforementioned axial displacement of the rotary shaft 22 and thus to the two locking elements 22.1, 5.3 separating from one another, which then results in the adjusting wheel 17 being rotated and the slide 13 being able to be adjusted.
  • a locking mechanism is also particularly preferably provided which prevents rotation of the rotary shaft 22 when the chair is loaded.
  • This is particularly preferably made of a torsion-resistant, but preferably axially displaceable with the
  • the locking wheel 26 is formed by a locking wheel 26 connected to the rotary shaft 22 and a blocking element 27 which is slidably mounted on the abutment 5, is spring-loaded and interacts with the locking wheel 26 (if, as in the embodiment shown, the blocking element 27 is wide enough, the locking wheel 26 does not need to be mounted axially slidably on the rotary shaft 22).
  • the blocking element 27 is designed to interact with the chair base 1 when the chair is not loaded and to release the locking wheel 26 and to block the locking wheel 26 when the chair is loaded.
  • the ratchet wheel 26 has a sawtooth toothing, again in such a way that in any case a movement of the carriage 13 on the bearing surface 5.1 in the direction of the pivot bearing 15 is or will be reliably prevented.
  • the adjusting wheel 17 is preferably designed to be firmly connected to the rotary shaft 22, it is further preferably provided that the adjusting element 6 is designed to be displaceably mounted parallel to the axis of rotation of the abutment 5, at least in the region of the adjusting wheel 17.
  • guide elements 28, preferably in the form of screw bolts, are provided on both sides of the adjusting wheel 17 and each acting on the adjusting element 6 from the outside.
