Description

Siège ergonomigue réglable permettant de s'asseoir en appui sur les genoux.Adjustable ergonomic seat allowing you to sit on your knees.

L'invention concerne un siège ergonomique réglable permettant de s' asseoir en appui sur les genoux.The invention relates to an adjustable ergonomic seat for sitting in support on the knees.

Une position naturelle de repos et de relaxation consiste à s'asseoir sur les talons en conservant un appui sur les genoux. Cependant, compte-tenu de la morphologie et de la souplesse de l'indivi- du, cette position est souvent difficile à prendre et à conserver.A natural position of rest and relaxation is to sit on your heels while maintaining support on your knees. However, given the morphology and flexibility of the individual, this position is often difficult to take and maintain.

La présente invention vise à créer un siège permettant de prendre une telle position et de la conserver de manière confortable, tout en pouvant s'adapter à des individus de tailles différentes ou à des positions variées d'un même individu, grâce à un système de règlage incorporé.The present invention aims to create a seat making it possible to take such a position and to keep it in a comfortable manner, while being able to adapt to individuals of different sizes or to various positions of the same individual, thanks to a system of incorporated trimming.

A cet effet, le siège selon l'invention est caractérisé par le fait qu'il comprend une assise profilée sensiblement concave reliée à un support dont au moins la région opposée à ladite assise est sensiblement sphérique, la liaison entre l'assise et le support étant réalisée par une tige filetée avec interposition éventuelle d'entretoises amovibles. To this end, the seat according to the invention is characterized in that it comprises a substantially concave shaped seat connected to a support of which at least the region opposite to said seat is substantially spherical, the connection between the seat and the support being produced by a threaded rod with possible interposition of removable spacers.

Grâce à l'invention, on obtient un siège extrêmement simple et économique qui permet, grâce à son assise, un repos confortable de l'utilisateur, tandis que le support arrondi permet d'effectuer divers mouvements d'assouplissement, de gymnastique, de rééducation, etc. Le réglage de la hauteur du support au moyen d'entretoises simplement enfilées sur une tige filetée de liaison, permet, sans compliquer le siège ni nuire à sa solidité, d'adapter la hauteur de l'assise à divers individus ou à diverses attitudes ou positions d'un même individu.Thanks to the invention, an extremely simple and economical seat is obtained which allows, thanks to its seat, a comfortable rest for the user, while the rounded support makes it possible to carry out various movements of flexibility, gymnastics, rehabilitation , etc. The adjustment of the height of the support by means of spacers simply threaded on a threaded connecting rod, allows, without complicating the seat or adversely affecting its solidity, to adapt the height of the seat to various individuals or to various attitudes or positions of the same individual.

De préférence, la tige filetée est vissée dans un écrou prisonnier de 1 assise et dans une douille taraudée fixée dans le support. L'ensemble est ainsi totalement démontable pour occuper un encombrement minimal pour le transport ou en dehors des périodes d'utilisation, sans la saillie agressive que produirait une tige fixe.Preferably, the threaded rod is screwed into a captive nut of 1 seat and into a threaded socket fixed in the support. The assembly is thus completely removable to occupy a minimum space requirement for transport or outside periods of use, without the aggressive projection that a fixed rod would produce.

Dans une forme de réalisation de l'invention, le support est sphérique à l'exception de sa face tournée vers l'assise, qui est sensiblement plane et sur'laquelle débouche le moyen de fixation sur l'assise, par exemple l'extrémité de la douille taraudée. Le support sphérique permet, avec une esthétique optimale, d'obtenir une mobilité maximale du siège.In one embodiment of the invention, the support is spherical with the exception of its face facing the seat, which is substantially planar and on which opens the attachment means on the seat, for example the end of the threaded sleeve. The spherical support allows, with optimal aesthetics, to obtain maximum mobility of the seat.

L'invention sera bien comprise à la lecture de la description suivante faite en se référant au dessin annesé dans lequel
La figure 1 est une vue schématique en perspective
d'un siège selon un exemple de réalisation de l'in
vention, en cours d'assemblage ; la figure 2 est une
vue schématique en -élévation, partiellement en cou
pe, du support du siège de la figure i ; la figure 3
est une vue schématique en élévation, partiellement
en coupe, de l'assise du siège de la figure 1, et la
figure 4 est une vue schématique en plan de l'assi
se de la figure 3. The invention will be clearly understood on reading the following description made with reference to the drawing in which
Figure 1 is a schematic perspective view
of a seat according to an exemplary embodiment of the in
vention, during assembly; Figure 2 is a
schematic view in elevation, partially in neck
pe, of the seat support of Figure i; figure 3
is a schematic elevational view, partially
in section, of the seat of the seat of Figure 1, and the
Figure 4 is a schematic plan view of the seat
Figure 3.

Dans l'exemple représenté à la figure -1, le siège selon l'invention est constitué par une assise profilée 1 reliée à un support 2 sensiblement sphérique par une tige filetée 3, avec ou sans interposition d'entretoises 4.In the example shown in FIG. -1, the seat according to the invention consists of a profiled seat 1 connected to a substantially spherical support 2 by a threaded rod 3, with or without the interposition of spacers 4.

Le support 2 est constitué par une boule dont une face 5 est plane (figure 2). Une douille taraudée 6, noyée dans la boule 2, débouche dans la face plane 5 et peut recevoir la tige filetée 3 de liaison avec l'assise 1.The support 2 consists of a ball, one face 5 of which is planar (FIG. 2). A threaded socket 6, embedded in the ball 2, opens into the flat face 5 and can receive the threaded rod 3 for connection with the seat 1.

L'assise 1 (figures 3 et 4) est formée en matériau moulé à la forme incurvée convenable, un écrou 7 étant noyé dans la face inférieure de l'assise 1 et recevant la tige filetée 3.The seat 1 (Figures 3 and 4) is made of molded material with a suitable curved shape, a nut 7 being embedded in the underside of the seat 1 and receiving the threaded rod 3.

Pour régler la hauteur par rapport au sol de 1 assise 1, on peut intercaler entre l'assise 1 et le support 2 une ou plusieurs entretoises annulaires 8, ou bien visser la boule 2 directement en omettant les entretoises 8.To adjust the height from the ground of 1 seat 1, one or more of the annular spacers 8 can be inserted between the seat 1 and the support 2, or else screw the ball 2 directly, omitting the spacers 8.

L'assise 1 peut être-réalisée par exemple en matière synthétique moulée, en bois comprimé. La boule 2 peut être en bois. The seat 1 can be made, for example, from molded synthetic material, from compressed wood. Ball 2 can be made of wood.
