COMPLEMENTARY FURNITURE

DESCRIPTION

5 OBJECT OF THE INVENTION

The invention, as expressed in the statement of the present specification, refers to a complementary piece of furniture that contributes, to the function to which it is intended, advantages and characteristics, which will be described in detail below, which represent an improvement in the Current state of the art.

More specifically, the object of the invention is focused on a sofa-type seat furniture whose structural configuration is designed to be incorporated as a front of the folding bed structures, allowing the use of them, when the bed is folded, for use as a seat, being provided, said complementary furniture, with a backrest that is folded together with the front of the bed and that is housed in the space left by the seat when moving forward in a synchronized manner with the backrest.

20 FIELD OF APPLICATION OF THE INVENTION

The scope of the present invention is part of the industry sector dedicated to the manufacture of furniture, in particular seating furniture and folding beds.

25 BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The folding beds of the type are known in the market which, in the case of rest, are arranged in a vertical position and are lowered to move to the position of use. This type of bed is usually composed of a box spring that attaches to a support front, 30 which is the folding part, which, in turn, is coupled, on both sides, to a mechanism

pivoting of a supporting structure that is anchored to the wall or that has sufficient strength and weight to support the movements of the bed base and the front.

With this, in the resting position, the bed is placed vertically and hidden behind said front 35, which constitutes the exposed face of the supporting structure, and in the use position, the front

it is lowered, pivoting on the joining mechanism of its two sides, to be placed horizontally supported on inner supports, so that it is self-supporting and does not need support legs, although they can be used

5 The objective of the present invention is therefore to provide the market with a complementary piece of furniture for this type of bed, which allows the use and use of the folding bed set, which normally in its position of use is only a structure that occupies space in the room but has no use, to incorporate a seat furniture, preferably a sofa that provides a practical utility to said structure.

On the other hand, and as a reference to the current state of the art, it should be noted that, although multiple types and folding bed models of the type described are known in the market, at least by the applicant, the existence of any furniture is unknown. 15 complementary to them or any other invention of similar application that presents technical, structural or constitutive characteristics similar to those presented here, as claimed.

EXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION

twenty

Thus, the complementary furniture that the invention proposes is configured as a remarkable novelty within its field of application, since, according to its implementation and in a restrictive way, the previously stated objectives are satisfactorily achieved, being the characterizing details that make it possible and distinguishing it conveniently set forth in the final claims that accompany this description.

Specifically, what the invention proposes, as noted above, is a seat furniture, preferably a sofa, whose structural configuration allows its incorporation into the front panel or front of a folding bed structure, in order to take advantage the existing area in front of them, always necessary to be able to lower the bed, but that, at the same time, does not suppose a hindrance nor prevents the normal folding of the bed, since said complementary furniture folds simultaneously to the dejection of said front.

For this, the complementary furniture of the invention has a back that is attached to the folding front of the bed, and is folded together with said front, staying on the seat that, at the same time moves forward, in the space that is under the front in its open position completely dejected, thanks to the articulated mechanism in which it is anchored by its ends in the side panels of the furniture that, at the same time, can act as armrests of the sofb (depending on its height, since it is not required that there are armrests in all configurations).

It should be noted that, in a possible option of implementation, the complementary furniture is coupled to an existing bed structure, which is preferably of an individual type with a bed width between 80 and 90 cm, and should only fulfill the premise of counting with a height, the seat with the backrest folded enough to fit under the front of the bed when it is completely folded down. Thus, both furniture have independent structures that only attach to each other and, optionally, the backrest of the complementary furniture can be fix, for example by screwing, to the front of the bed to avoid unwanted movements

However, the preferred option contemplates that the structure of the collapsible bed and the structure of the complementary furniture constitute the same structure and, therefore, the assembly is an already created set of factory.

In any case, preferably, the seat and back cushions have been made of textile-coated foams (of different types and colors).

In addition, the structure of the complementary furniture is designed so that, in the lower part of the seat, drawers can be installed or, if the arms are trimmed, a trundle bed can be placed as a support base for the assembly.

Preferably, the support boards, on which the seat is incorporated and, where appropriate, the drawers, are preferably 30 mm thick, while the boards that act as armrests and constitute the sides of the structure where the mechanism is incorporated of folding the backrest and sliding of the seat, they will be thick enough to support the weight and effort necessary for it, being 30, 40 or 50 mm thick. (to match the structure of the bed) and the edge can be chamfered or with a rounding to avoid songs at right angles. The lower gaps allow the

installation of guide systems to incorporate drawers. The width measurement would be adjusted to the bed model that is incorporated with a range of 101 to 226 cm, since the furniture of the invention is designed for vertical, horizontal or bunk folding beds.

5 The described complementary furniture represents, therefore, an innovation of structural and constitutive characteristics unknown until now, reasons that together with its practical utility, provide it with sufficient grounds to obtain the privilege of exclusivity that is requested.

10 DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

To complement the description that was being made and in order to help a better understanding of the features of the invention, this descriptive report is accompanied, as an integral part thereof, of a set of pianos, in which 15 Illustrative and non-limiting character has represented the following:

In view of the aforementioned figures, and according to the numbering adopted, it can be observed in them two non-limiting examples of the recommended complementary furniture, which comprises the parts and elements that are indicated and described in detail below.

Thus, according to these figures, it can be seen as the furniture (1) in question, applicable for its incorporation in front of the front (2) of a folding bed structure (3), comprises a seat (4) and a backrest (5 ) that fold simultaneously with the folding of said front (2), passing from a position of use, where, as shown in Figure 1, the folding bed (3) is closed with the front (2) in vertical position and the furniture (1) open in disposition of use attached in front of said front (2), to a folded position where, as shown in figure 3, the folding bed (3) is open with the front (2) in horizontal position and the furniture (1) fitted under said front (2).

To do this e! furniture (1) is configured from a support structure (6), preferably of melamine, comprising two sides (7) between which at least one seat base board (8) is incorporated (4), existing, on the inner side of said sides (7), an articulated mechanism (9) that links the backrest (5) with the seat (4) and allows them to be positioned, in the position of use, perpendicular to each other and, in the folded position, one over another, moving from one position to another simultaneously and with sliding forward of the seat (4).

Said laterals (7), in addition, constitute the armrests of the furniture (1), being able to be beveled or rounded in the edge

It should be noted that the articulated mechanism (9) has been represented schematically in Figure 4, although it can be any system known in the market for folding furniture, generally based on guides and connecting rods with articulated rivets. In any case, preferably, said articulated mechanism (9) is incorporated, on each side of the seat (4), attached to a support piece (11) fixed, in turn, to the inner side of the sides (7).

In figures 1 to 3, the furniture (1) of the invention is a piece of furniture independent of the

structure of the folding bed (3) that engages in front of its front (2) and has a coincident length so that, when said front (2) is folded down, the bed is inserted between the sides (7) of the furniture support structure (1), ace! as a height the seat (4) with the backrest (5) folded so that it fits under said front (2) folded down.

Figure 4 shows an alternative embodiment option of the furniture (1) of the invention, where the structure of the folding bed (3) and the support structure of the furniture (1) are the same structure

10 In both cases, the support structure (6) of the furniture has in its lower part, under the seat base board (8), a divided space and provided with guides for installing drawers (10) or, alternatively , ample space to accommodate a trundle bed.

Describe sufficiently the nature of the present invention, as! As the way to put it into practice, it is not considered necessary to make its explanation more extensive so that any expert in the field understands its scope and the advantages that derive from it, stating that, within its essentiality, it could be Nevada to the practice in other forms of realization that differ in detail from that indicated by way of example, and to which it will also achieve the protection that is sought as long as it is not altered, changed or modified its fundamental principle.
