Abstract
A sling seat with a frame and supports. The frame is a tubular arcuate structure with a seat section connected to a back section. The supports include an open elastomeric face that is disposed over the associated seat section or back section.
Description
- The present invention generally relates to seating and seating materials, and in particular, to seats and seating materials using elastomeric fabrics in a sling type support.
- Traditional seating in applications such as vehicle utilizes a steel support system, a cushioning foam, and a covering material. However, this type of arrangement is prone to body heat retention and stress concentrations on the occupant due to non-uniform support. Additionally, the traditional seating arrangement is prone to moisture retention and are not readily cleanable by spraying or disposing water across the seat. In an arrangement were a water repellent fabric is used as the covering material for traditional seat, the foam design of the seat will naturally form reservoirs in the contours of the seat extending drying time. Furthermore, the traditional arrangement of a steel support, foam cushion, and covering material takes up significant space of vehicle and contributes a significant amount of weight to the total seat.
- Sling seats with traditional fabrics have been attached loosely to the frame in order to overcome these difficulties. However, this type of sling seat does not provide the comfort needed by an occupant. Therefore, there is a need for sling seats that reduce heat retention and uncomfortable stress on the occupant, does not retain moisture, can be cleansed with disposing water across the surface without forming reservoirs, and contributes less weight and space occupancy than the traditional seat.
- A further understanding of the invention can be obtained by referring to the following drawings in conjunction with the detailed description below:
- FIG. 1 is a prospective view of an embodiment of the present invention illustrated as the sling seat;
- FIG. 2 is a prospective view of the frame of the sling seat in FIG. 1;
- FIG. 3 is a prospective view of a support of the sling seat in FIG. 1;
- FIG. 4 is a partial cross sectional view of the support in FIG. 3 along the section line4-4;
- FIG. 5 is a partial cross sectional view of the support and the frame along the section line5-5 in FIG. 1, illustrating the orientation of the support on the frame.
- Referring now to the drawings, and in particular FIG. 1, there is shown an embodiment to the present invention illustrated as the

For example, thelumbar section 121, theback support section 123 and theupper back transition 125 can be ½ inch closer to thelumbar section 122, theback support section 124 and the upperback transition section 126 at theupper cross bar 127 than at the ends adjacent to theconnector section 130. - The
connector section 130 includestransition sections seat support sections seat 110, andparallel connector extensions transitions lumbar sections back 120. As illustrated, thetransitions connector 130. However, it is anticipated by the invention that any transition can provide a resiliency to the connection of theback 120 to theseat 110 can be used in thetransition connector 130 joins theback 120 to theseat 110 at an obtuse angle between theseat 110 and theback 120 in the location where the seat would be occupied. - As illustrated, a seat frame cross bar or
seat bar 140 is disposed across the second seat frame end at the joining of the seat supports 111, 112, with thetransitions back bar 150 is disposed across the second back frame end at the joining of thetransitions connector extensions seat bar 140 and theback bar 150 can be disposed in other locations that would not disturb an occupant of thesling seat 10. For example, theback bar 150 could also be located across the joining of theconnector extensions lumbar sections - Although the
frame 100 is illustrated as a tubular steel frame, it is anticipated that the frame could be made of any other material which provides the structural form necessary to hold the supports in position. Additionally, theseat support 110 and theback support 120 could be formed as separate units which are connected by a hinge-type structure to allow either theseat support 110 or theback support 120 to fold up, or down, out of the way for access behind those positions. - Referring now to FIGS. 3 and 4, there is shown one embodiment of the
support 200 for thesling seat 10 in FIG. 1, illustrated as a prospective view in FIG. 3 and cross sectional view in FIG. 4. Thesupport 200 generally includes asupport enclosure 201 and aframe cushion 270. As illustrated, thesupport enclosure 201 includes asupport surface face 210, aback surface 220,sides retaining end 250, areception end 260. Theface 210 is connected to theback 220 bysides retaining end 250, thereby creating an envelope. Thereception end 260 is an open end that includesfastening mechanism 261. Thefastening mechanism 261 can be a zipper, hook and loop fasteners, buttons, snaps, or the like. - The
