Description
La présente invention a pour objet un canapé-lit transformable.The present invention relates to a convertible sofa bed.
Ce canapé est du type comprenant trois panneaux rectangulaires articulés les uns sur les autres deux à deux autour d'axes parallèles, ces panneaux reposant sur des éléments de piètement et étant recouverts par un élément de confort en forme de matelas. Les panneaux peuvent occuper une première position de canapé dans laquelle un premier panneau sensiblement horizontal forme l'assise, un second panneau, adjacent au premier et sensiblement vertical forme le dossier et un troisième panneau, replié contre le second panneau et également sensiblement vertical, forme la paroi arrière du canapé. Dans une seconde position, correspondant à la position de lit, les trois panneaux sont disposés This sofa is of the type comprising three rectangular panels articulated one on top of the other two by two around parallel axes, these panels resting on base elements and being covered by a comfort element in the form of a mattress. The panels can occupy a first sofa position in which a first substantially horizontal panel forms the seat, a second panel, adjacent to the first and substantially vertical forms the backrest and a third panel, folded against the second panel and also substantially vertical, forms the back wall of the sofa. In a second position, corresponding to the bed position, the three panels are arranged
dans un même plan horizontal.in the same horizontal plane.
Un tel canapé-lit transformable bénéficie de l'avantage d'être d'une structure simple, et d'une mise en oeuvre simple et rapide pour passer de la position canapé à la position lit. Toutefois, il n'existe pas d'accoudoirs intégrés à la structure du canapé, ce qui limite le confort de Such a convertible sofa bed has the advantage of being of a simple structure, and of a simple and rapid implementation for changing from the sofa position to the bed position. However, there are no armrests integrated into the structure of the sofa, which limits the comfort of
celui-ci en position canapé.this one in sofa position.
Le but de l'invention est de fournir un canapé-lit transformable de ce type, dans lequel des accoudoirs soient intégrés à la structure, ces accoudoirs étant amenés automatiquement à leur position d'utilisation, en The object of the invention is to provide a convertible sofa bed of this type, in which armrests are integrated into the structure, these armrests being brought automatically to their position of use, in
position canapé, et étant escamotés en position lit. sofa position, and being folded down in bed position.
A cet effet, dans le canapé-lit qu'elle concerne, le troisième panneau comporte à proximité de chacun de ses bords transversaux à l'axe d'articulation sur le second panneau, et faisant saillie de sa face tournée vers le second panneau, en position canapé, un bras qui, en position canapé, traverse une ouverture ménagée dans le second panneau, et To this end, in the sofa bed it relates to, the third panel comprises, near each of its edges transverse to the axis of articulation on the second panel, and projecting from its face facing the second panel, in the sofa position, an arm which, in the sofa position, passes through an opening in the second panel, and
dépasse de celui-ci pour déformer le matelas et constituer un accoudoir. protrudes from it to deform the mattress and form an armrest.
En pratique, lorsque le canapé est en position lit, les bras fixés sur le troisième panneau sont tournés vers le sol. Lorsque le canapé est actionné vers sa position canapé, lors du rapprochement des second et troisième panneaux, chaque bras du troisième panneau traverse une ouverture du second panneau, et vient déformer le matelas dans la zone de In practice, when the sofa is in the bed position, the arms fixed on the third panel are turned towards the floor. When the sofa is actuated towards its sofa position, when the second and third panels are brought together, each arm of the third panel passes through an opening in the second panel, and deforms the mattress in the area of
liaison entre l'assise et le dossier pour former deux accoudoirs. connection between the seat and the backrest to form two armrests.
Afin de former un accoudoir de dimensions suffisantes chaque bras comporte un premier tronçon perpendiculaire au troisième panneau, prolongé par un tronçon s'étendant sensiblement parallèlement à ce In order to form an armrest of sufficient dimensions, each arm has a first section perpendicular to the third panel, extended by a section extending substantially parallel to this.
panneau en direction du centre du canapé. panel towards the center of the sofa.
Suivant une forme d'exécution chaque bras possède une forme générale de L. Avantageusement chaque ouverture ménagée dans le second panneau pour permettre le passage d'un bras du troisième panneau est formé par une découpe rectangulaire débouchant dans le bord latéral correspondant du second panneau et dans son bord d'articulation sur le premier panneau, tandis que le premier panneau comporte, au-delà de l'axe d'articulation sur le second panneau, et de chaque côté, un prolongement en forme de volet obturant partiellement l'une des ouvertures du second panneau lorsque les différents panneaux sont alignés en position horizontale. Les volets appartenant au premier panneau permettent de reconstituer une certaine continuité au niveau du matelas, en position lit, ce qui ne serait pas le cas si les ouvertures destinées au passage des bras n'étaient pas obturées par les volets, ces ouvertures pouvant alors According to one embodiment, each arm has a general L shape. Advantageously, each opening made in the second panel to allow the passage of an arm of the third panel is formed by a rectangular cutout opening into the corresponding lateral edge of the second panel and in its hinge edge on the first panel, while the first panel has, beyond the hinge axis on the second panel, and on each side, a flap-shaped extension partially closing one of the second panel openings when the different panels are aligned in a horizontal position. The flaps belonging to the first panel make it possible to reconstruct a certain continuity at the level of the mattress, in the bed position, which would not be the case if the openings intended for the passage of the arms were not blocked by the flaps, these openings then being able to
constituer des zones d'inconfort.constitute areas of discomfort.
De toute façon l'invention sera bien comprise à l'aide de la In any case, the invention will be well understood using the
description qui suit, en référence au dessin schématique annexé description which follows, with reference to the attached schematic drawing

Le canapé représenté au dessin comprend trois panneaux de forme générale rectangulaire articulés les uns aux autres deux à deux autour d'axes parallèles. Il s'agit d'un premier panneau 2, d'un second panneau 3 et d'un troisième panneau 4. Les premier panneau et second panneaux 2, 3 sont articulés l'un sur l'autre autour d'un axe 5 tandis que le troisième panneau 4 est articulé sur le deuxième panneau 3 autour d'un axe 6. Le premier panneau est monté sur un piétement avant 7, tandis que le troisième panneau est articulé en 8 sur un second piétement ou piétement arrière 9. L'ensemble des trois panneaux est recouvert par un matelas 10 assurant le confort tant en position canapé qu'en position lit. Comme montré au dessin, le second panneau 3 présente, au niveau de chacun de ses bords latéraux, et de son bord d'articulation sur le premier panneau, une ouverture rectangulaire 12. Pour sa part, et comme montré notamment aux figures 3, 7 et 8, le premier panneau présente au niveau de chacun de ses bords, un prolongement 13 en forme de volet obturant partiellement une ouverture 12 du second panneau 3 lorsque les The sofa shown in the drawing comprises three panels of generally rectangular shape hinged to each other in pairs around parallel axes. It is a first panel 2, a second panel 3 and a third panel 4. The first panel and second panels 2, 3 are articulated one on the other about an axis 5 while that the third panel 4 is articulated on the second panel 3 about an axis 6. The first panel is mounted on a front base 7, while the third panel is articulated in 8 on a second base or rear base 9. The all three panels are covered by a mattress 10 ensuring comfort both in the sofa position and in the bed position. As shown in the drawing, the second panel 3 has, at each of its lateral edges, and its hinge edge on the first panel, a rectangular opening 12. For its part, and as shown in particular in Figures 3, 7 and 8, the first panel has, at each of its edges, an extension 13 in the form of a flap partially closing an opening 12 of the second panel 3 when the
différents panneaux sont alignés en position horizontale. different panels are aligned in a horizontal position.
Le troisième panneau 4 comporte, à proximité de chacun de ses bords transversaux à l'axe d'articulation 6, et faisant saillie de sa face tournée vers le second panneau, en position canapé, et vers le sol en position lit, un bras 14. Dans la forme d'exécution représentée au dessin chaque bras 14 est constitué par un tube en L comprenant un premier tronçon 15 perpendiculaire au troisième panneau et un second tronçon 16 parallèle au troisième panneau et dirigé vers le centre du canapé. Le positionnement de chaque bras 14 sur le troisième panneau est tel qu'en position canapé, I'extrémité libre du bras 15 traverse une ouverture 12 du second panneau et dépasse celui-ci pour déformer le matelas et constituer un accoudoir 17, comme cela est montré au dessin notamment aux figures 1, 2 et 4. Lorsque le canapé est actionné vers sa position lit, les bras 14 se retirent des ouvertures 12, et viennent s'orienter vers le bas, comme montré notamment aux figures 3 et 6. Dans cette position lit, les volets 13 des premiers panneaux obturent partiellement les ouvertures 12 correspondantes, évitant ainsi que ces ouvertures ne nuisent au confort des The third panel 4 comprises, near each of its edges transverse to the articulation axis 6, and projecting from its face facing the second panel, in the sofa position, and towards the ground in the bed position, an arm 14 In the embodiment shown in the drawing, each arm 14 is constituted by an L-shaped tube comprising a first section 15 perpendicular to the third panel and a second section 16 parallel to the third panel and directed towards the center of the sofa. The positioning of each arm 14 on the third panel is such that in the sofa position, the free end of the arm 15 passes through an opening 12 of the second panel and exceeds it to deform the mattress and constitute an armrest 17, as is shown in the drawing in particular in Figures 1, 2 and 4. When the sofa is actuated towards its bed position, the arms 14 withdraw from the openings 12, and come to orient themselves downwards, as shown in particular in Figures 3 and 6. In this bed position, the flaps 13 of the first panels partially close the corresponding openings 12, thus preventing these openings from adversely affecting the comfort of
occupants du lit.occupants of the bed.
Comme il ressort de ce qui précède l'invention apporte une grande amélioration à la technique existante en fournissant un canapé-lit transformable possédant des accoudoirs simples et escamotables As is apparent from the above, the invention brings a great improvement to the existing technique by providing a convertible sofa bed having simple and retractable armrests
automatiquement lors du passage en position lit. automatically when switching to the bed position.
Comme il va de soi l'invention ne se limite pas à la seule forme d'exécution de ce canapé-lit, décrite ci-dessus à titre d'exemple, elle en embrasse au contraire toutes les variantes. C'est ainsi notamment que la forme des bras 14 pourrait être différente, ou encore que l'ossature et notamment le piétement du canapé pourraient être différents sans que l'on As it goes without saying, the invention is not limited to the sole embodiment of this sofa bed, described above by way of example, on the contrary it embraces all variants. It is thus in particular that the shape of the arms 14 could be different, or that the frame and in particular the base of the sofa could be different without that
sorte pour autant du cadre de l'invention. so far from the scope of the invention.
