Description

OBJETO DE LA INVENCiÓN OBJECT OF THE INVENTION

La presente invención se refiere a un canapé, es decir al dispositivo que actúa como elemento soporte para un colchón, siendo del tipo de los que presentan una tapa abatible que permite el acceso al interior del canapé, para, por ejemplo almacenar ropa de cama u otros elementos. The present invention relates to a couch, that is to say the device that acts as a support element for a mattress, being of the type that has a folding cover that allows access to the interior of the couch, for, for example, storing bed linen or other elements.

El objeto de la invención es proporcionar un canapé cuya apertura esté asistida por un sistema neumático, mediante el cual no sea preciso llevar a cabo esfuerzos en las maniobras de abatimiento de la tapa para acceder al interior del canapé. The object of the invention is to provide a canapé whose opening is assisted by a pneumatic system, by means of which it is not necessary to carry out efforts in the cover folding operations to access the interior of the canapé.

Es igualmente objeto de la invención que el canapé incorpore medios que permitan bloquear con seguridad la tapa del mismo en distintas posiciones para la misma. It is also the object of the invention that the canapé incorporates means that allow the lid to be securely locked in different positions for it.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Como es sabido, en el ámbito de aplicación práctica de la invención son conocidos canapés en los que se define un cuerpo inferior prismático, abierto superiormente, de forma frontal o lateral, que define un receptáculo para la ropa de cama u otros objetos que se pretendan almacenar, y sobre el que se dispone una tapa, asistida por un mecanismo neumático, normalmente mediante una pareja de cuadriláteros articulados en los que participa un pistón neumático, mediante los cuales se permite llevar a cabo el abatimiento de la tapa con un menor esfuerzo. As is known, in the field of practical application of the invention there are known canapés in which a prismatic lower body is defined, superiorly open, frontally or laterally, which defines a receptacle for the bedding or other objects that are intended storing, and on which a lid is disposed, assisted by a pneumatic mechanism, usually by means of a pair of articulated quadrilaterals in which a pneumatic piston participates, by means of which it is possible to carry out the folding of the lid with less effort.

Sin embargo, este tipo de mecanismos están diseñados para que haya que vencer un esfuerzo inicial previamente al cual el pistón no tiende a su despliegue, de manera que dicho esfuerzo en algunos casos para ciertos usuarios supone un esfuerzo considerable, a lo que hay que añadir el hecho de que este tipo de dispositivos no se puede bloquear en However, these types of mechanisms are designed so that an initial effort must be overcome prior to which the piston does not tend to deploy, so that said effort in some cases for certain users involves considerable effort, to which we must add the fact that such devices cannot be locked in

intermediate opening positions.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

El canapé de apertura semiautomática que la invención propone resuelve de forma plenamente satisfactoria la problemática anteriormente expuesta en los dos aspectos comentados, de una forma sencilla pero de gran eficacia. The semi-automatic opening couch that the invention proposes solves in a fully satisfactory way the problem previously stated in the two aspects mentioned, in a simple but highly effective way.

Para ello, y partiendo de la estructuración anteriormente comentada, en la que se define cuerpo inferior prismático, abierto superiormente, que define un receptáculo para la ropa de cama u otros objetos que se pretendan almacenar, y sobre el que se dispone una tapa, asistida por una pareja de cuadriláteros articulados en los que participa un pistón neumático, la invención centra sus características en el hecho de que dicho pistón se materializa en un pistón de apertura controlada, con el concurso de una sirga. To do this, and based on the aforementioned structuring, which defines a prismatic lower body, open at the top, which defines a receptacle for bedding or other objects that are intended to be stored, and on which a lid is provided, assisted by a pair of articulated quadrilaterals in which a pneumatic piston participates, the invention focuses its characteristics on the fact that said piston materializes in a controlled opening piston, with the help of a tow.

De esta manera, se ha previsto que sobre el frente de la tapa del canapé o cualquier lugar accesible por el exterior, se establezca un pulsador que está asociado a un cable principal, que a su vez tracciona de las dos sirgas asociadas a los dos pistones o cilindros neumáticos cuando se pulsa el pulsador, liberando dichos cilindros y provocando la apertura automática de la tapa, sin necesidad de tener que realizar ningún esfuerzo de tracción sobre la misma, en contra de lo que sucede en los canapés convencionales. In this way, it is envisaged that on the front of the cover of the couch or any place accessible by the outside, a push-button that is associated with a main cable is established, which in turn pulls from the two rods associated with the two pistons or pneumatic cylinders when the button is pressed, releasing said cylinders and causing the lid to open automatically, without having to make any tensile stress on it, contrary to what happens in conventional canapés.

Se consigue de esta manera un mecanismo sumamente efectivo, sencillo y fácil de usar, que se puede bloquear en muy diversas posiciones, en contra de lo que sucede en los canapés convencionales, de accionamiento semiautomático y que no afecta a la capacidad de almacenamiento del canapé. In this way, an extremely effective, simple and easy-to-use mechanism is achieved, which can be locked in very different positions, contrary to what happens in conventional, semi-automatic drive canapés and that does not affect the storage capacity of the canapé .

PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

A la vista de las figuras señaladas, y en especial de la figura 1, puede observarse como el canapé de la invención parte de la estructura convencional de este tipo de canapés, en los que participa un cuerpo base principal (1) prismático, abierto superiormente, que define un receptáculo de almacenamiento, sobre el que se dispone una tapa (2) abatible que se relaciona con las paredes laterales internas del cuerpo base principal (1) a partir de una pareja de mecanismos neumáticos, uno de los cuales se observa claramente en la figura 2, en la que participa un cuadrilátero articulado (3-4-5-6), asistido por un cilindro neumático (7). In view of the aforementioned figures, and in particular of figure 1, it can be seen how the canapé of the invention is part of the conventional structure of this type of canapés, in which a prismatic main base body (1), open superiorly, participates , which defines a storage receptacle, on which a hinged lid (2) is disposed that relates to the inner side walls of the main base body (1) from a pair of pneumatic mechanisms, one of which is clearly observed in figure 2, in which an articulated quadrilateral (3-4-5-6) participates, assisted by a pneumatic cylinder (7).

Pues bien, de acuerdo ya con la invención, se ha previsto que dicho pistón o cilindro neumático (7) se materialice en un pistón de apertura controlada, por medio de una sirga (8), de manera que dicha sirga (8) libera o bloquea el cilindro a partir de un mecanismo de bloqueo/liberación (9) convencional. Well, according to the invention, it is provided that said piston or pneumatic cylinder (7) is materialized in a controlled opening piston, by means of a rope (8), so that said valve (8) releases or Locks the cylinder from a conventional locking / releasing mechanism (9).

Ambas sirgas (8) se controlan a partir de un cable principal (10) que se fija al extremo de las mismas, de manera que por su extremo posterior el cable principal (10) se asocia a un pulsador (11) establecido en el frente de la tapa (2) del canapé. Both rods (8) are controlled from a main cable (10) that is fixed to the end thereof, so that at its rear end the main cable (10) is associated with a button (11) established in the front of the cover (2) of the couch.

De esta manera, al pulsar el pulsador (11), se produce una tracción sobre el cable principal (10), que a su vez traccionar de las sirgas (8), liberando los cilindros neumáticos (7), y provocando la apertura automática de la tapa (2), hasta que se deje de pulsar dicho pulsador (11), momento en el que los cilindros neumáticos quedan bloqueados, permitiendo estabilizar la tapa (2) del canapé en diversas posiciones, todas ellas completamente In this way, when the button (11) is pressed, traction is produced on the main cable (10), which in turn pulls from the ropes (8), releasing the pneumatic cylinders (7), and causing the automatic opening of the cover (2), until the push-button (11) is stopped, at which time the pneumatic cylinders are locked, allowing the cover (2) of the couch to stabilize in various positions, all of them completely

estables. stable.
