Description

Soporte para hamacas.Hammock support.

Object of the invention

La presente invención se refiere a un soporte especialmente concebido para la implantación sobre el mismo de una hamaca, en situación de trabajo para la misma.The present invention relates to a support specially designed for the implementation of a hammock, in working situation for it.

El objeto de la invención es conseguir un soporte que además de ofrecer unas óptimas garantías desde el punto de vista de rigidez estructural y, en consecuencia, de estabilidad para la hamaca suspendida del mismo, esté obtenido a base de madera y sea fácilmente desmontable, para facilitar su almacenaje y transporte.The object of the invention is to obtain a support that in addition to offering optimal guarantees from the point of view of structural rigidity and, consequently, of stability for the hammock suspended from it, be obtained from wood and be easily removable, for easy storage and transport.

Background of the invention

Como es sabido, una hamaca está estructurada mediante una red, una lona o similar, de contorno rectangular, rigidizada por sus extremos mediante travesaños, desde los que confluyen tirantes de suspensión hasta dos únicos puntos, en correspondencia con sus extremos, de los que la hamaca va a ser finalmente suspendida.As is known, a hammock is structured by means of a net, a canvas or similar, of rectangular contour, stiffened by its ends by crossbars, from which suspension braces converge up to two single points, in correspondence with its extremes, of which the hammock is going to be finally suspended

Convencionalmente las hamacas fueron concebidas para ser suspendidas de dos árboles, convenientemente distanciados, constituyendo una especie de cama que puede ser utilizada como tal, y también como columpio.Conventionally the hammocks were conceived to be suspended from two trees, conveniently distanced, constituting a kind of bed that can be used as such, and also as a swing.

Más recientemente la hamaca se ha convertido en un complemento de jardinería y se han desarrollado soportes que, sustentando debidamente la hamaca, permiten la implantación de esta última en cualquier lugar que se estime conveniente, por ejemplo dentro de un jardín.More recently the hammock has become a complement of gardening and supports have been developed that, duly supporting the hammock, allow the implementation of this last in any place deemed convenient, for example Inside a garden

Estos soportes se materializan habitualmente en una estructura metálica, a base de tubo de hierro, aluminio u otro material apropiado, que debidamente solidarizados entre sí, generalmente por soldadura, configuran una base de apoyo que confiere al soporte la debida estabilidad, base de la que emergen dos brazos extremos, generalmente divergentes en sentido ascendente, de cuya extremidad libre queda colgada la hamaca, a la vez por sus extremos.These supports usually materialize in a metal structure, based on an iron, aluminum or other tube appropriate material, which duly solidarity with each other, usually by welding, they set up a support base that gives the support due stability, base from which they emerge two extreme arms, generally divergent in direction ascending, from whose free limb the hammock is hung, to the Once by its ends.

Con independencia de que el hierro o el aluminio, aunque debidamente pintados, rompen en muchos casos con la estética de un jardín, haciendo estos soportes metálicos inadmisibles, la estructura rígida que incorporan hace que resulten muy voluminosos, con una longitud que sobrepasa los tres metros, una altura próxima a los dos metros y una anchura a su vez próxima al metro, de manera que su almacenaje y su transporte resultan complicados y costosos, por la considerable ocupación de espacio que de dichas dimensiones se deriva.Regardless of whether iron or aluminum, although properly painted, they break in many cases with aesthetics of a garden, making these metal supports inadmissible, the rigid structure that they incorporate makes them very bulky, with a length that exceeds three meters, a near height at two meters and a width in turn next to the meter, so that its storage and transportation are complicated and expensive, for the considerable occupation of space that of these dimensions is derived.

Description of the invention

El soporte para hamacas que la invención propone resuelve de forma plenamente satisfactoria la problemática anteriormente expuesta, en los diferentes aspectos comentados.The hammock stand that the invention proposes solves the problem fully satisfactorily previously exposed, in the different aspects commented.

Para ello y de forma más concreta dicho soporte está estructurado a base de piezas de madera debidamente fijadas entre sí con la colaboración de tornillos que permiten un fácil montaje y desmontaje, de manera que además del aspecto general del soporte derivado de su propia naturaleza, es decir de la madera que participa en el mismo, éste puede ser desmontado en una serie de elementos lineales e independientes, con una ocupación de espacio mínima, una gran facilidad de montaje y desmontaje y una gran rigidez estructural en posición de trabajo.To do this and more specifically said support It is structured based on wooden parts properly fixed each other with the collaboration of screws that allow easy assembly and disassembly, so that in addition to the general appearance of the support derived from its own nature, that is to say from the wood that participates in it, it can be disassembled in a series of linear and independent elements, with an occupation of space minimum, great ease of assembly and disassembly and great structural rigidity in working position.

De forma más concreta en dicho soporte participa un larguero materializado en un tablón de considerable longitud, que con la colaboración de una pareja de travesaños relativamente próximos a sus extremos configura la base de apoyo del soporte sobre el suelo, emergiendo de la cara superior de dicho larguero, sustancialmente por dentro de los citados travesaños y en disposición también simétrica, una pareja de brazos coplanarios, incluidos en el imaginario plano vertical y medio pasante por el larguero inferior, acusadamente divergentes en sentido ascendente y provistos en su extremidad libre de sendos rebajes escalonados que facilitan el acoplamiento de los extremos de suspensión de la hamaca.More specifically in this support participates a stringer materialized on a plank of considerable length, that with the collaboration of a pair of crossbars relatively close to its ends configure the support base of the support on the ground, emerging from the upper face of said stringer, substantially within the mentioned crossbars and in also symmetrical arrangement, a couple of coplanar arms, included in the imaginary vertical plane and half through the lower beam, sharply divergent upstream and provided at its free end of two staggered recesses that facilitate the coupling of the suspension ends of the hammock.

La disposición acusadamente divergente de estos brazos hace que los esfuerzos generados por la utilización de la hamaca se transmitan de forma sensiblemente longitudinal a través de los mismos hacia la base inferior, pero además estos brazos están apuntalados cada uno de ellos mediante dos riostras laterales, igualmente de madera, que se extienden hasta los extremos del travesaño correspondiente, y una riostra exterior que a su vez se extiende hasta la extremidad libre del larguero, estando todos estos elementos, como anteriormente se ha dicho, sólidamente afianzados entre sí mediante tornillos con sus correspondientes tuercas, que quedan embebidos en la propia madera evitando la existencia de elementos sobresalientes que pudieran generar algún tipo de daño o lesión para los usuarios.The sharply divergent disposition of these arms makes the efforts generated by the use of the hammock are transmitted substantially longitudinally through of them towards the lower base, but also these arms each one of them is propped up by two braces sides, also made of wood, which extend to the ends of the corresponding crossbar, and an outer brace that in turn it extends to the free end of the crossbar, being all these elements, as previously stated, solidly secured together by screws with their corresponding nuts, which are embedded in the wood itself avoiding the existence of outstanding elements that could generate some type of damage or injury to users.
