Description
- The invention relates to a piece of furniture on which a person may sit or recline in various positions.
- Various reclining chairs and arm chairs are known from the prior art that offer support for the legs and provide the opportunity to vary the position of the body.
- Some of these known chairs, for example the type known as the “Stress-less” chair, are suited for support of the body in both a sitting and reclining position. These chairs resemble foremost arm chairs and it is necessary to adjust either the chairs' back support members or seating members, or both, in order to adjust the chairs from the one position to the other. The design of these chairs rarely gives the user the immediate feeling that the chair offers a flexible means of use. In contrast, the chair according to the present invention communicates to the user at first glance that it is a piece of furniture with a plurality of means of use. Because the construction of the chair communicates its function so clearly, the user will quickly ascertain that this piece of furniture can be used in various sitting and reclining positions.
- Reclining chairs of the type “LeCorbusier” are also known from the prior art. This type of recliner does not, however, offer the opportunity for an independent sitting position providing back support, While the user can adjust the recliner between different reclining positions, it is not possible to bring the recliner in a position where the user can sit with support for his or her back and with his or her feet placed on the floor.
- U.S. Pat. No. 4,941,709 discloses an examination chair having a rotating seat member and means for adjusting the chair from a sitting position to a reclining position. This examination chair is based in part on the same principles as the chairs described above, in that the chair must be manipulated in order to change between the sitting position and the reclining position. The examination chair is thus substantially different than the piece of furniture according to the present invention, and furthermore does not provide support for varied body positions other than standard sitting and reclining positions. In addition, the rotating seat member from U.S. Pat. No. 4,941,709 has a different function than the rotating seat member of the present invention The seat member of the present invention is supplied with an independent back support member, and provides an independent sitting function with back support that is separate from the chair's reclining function It should therefore be apparent that there are significant differences between the examination chair and the chair of the present invention in regards to both their areas of use and their physical features.
- It is the object of the invention to provide a piece of furniture that meets the body's needs for movement and variation between different sitting positions. It is a further object of the invention that the chair's construction encourages the user to vary between different body-positions, due to the fact that the chair's design makes it simple and natural to alter one's sitting style.
- These objects are achieved by the piece of furniture according to the independent claims and further by the features of the piece of furniture as claimed in the dependent claims. The physical form of the piece of furniture is flexible and versatile and makes it simple to vary the position of the body between positions, in that the user can either lay or sit on the piece of furniture. The piece of furniture will often be appreciated as multi-functional piece of furniture.
- The piece of furniture according to the invention comprises a support member that has an elongated, bench-like form. The support member can have flat or curved surfaces, thus providing surfaces that can in alternate modes offer support for the user's various body parts. The invention further comprises at least one seat member with back support, whereby the seat member is attached to the support member such that the seat member can rotate. In one embodiment, the back support member is capable of being regulated or removed The back support may possibly be moved from the seat member to the support member
- Under normal use, the user will, for example, sit in a normal seated position in the seat member of the chair, with his or her feet resting on, the floor and with support in the back from the back support member. In this position, the user can rest his or her arms against a section of the support member's surface that preferably projects out from under the seat member.
- In addition, the support member can also be utilized as an ordinary reclining surface where the user's derriere typically will rest on the seat member while the remainder of the user's torso and legs are supported by the support member.
- In a preferred embodiment, the support member is formed with a recessed section where the seat member is attached.
- In another preferred embodiment, two or more sections of the support member are arranged at an angle sloping down towards the recessed section. Said sloping arrangement of the support member gives the user the opportunity to lie in a partially prone reclining position, as well as allowing the support member to function as a support for other parts of the body when the user is in a seated position on the seat member.
- In one embodiment, the length of at least one of the sections of the support member can be adjusted, such that section of the support member that projects out from the seat member can be adjusted. The adjustment of the length of the support member can be achieved by, for example, mounting the sections of the support member on a slide-able track arrangement that can be moved in and out in relation to the seat member. A person skilled in the art will appreciate that the length adjustment is used when the support member comprises angled sections. In an alternative embodiment, only one of the sections of the support member is capable of adjustment to its length. With such an embodiment, the user will be able to adjust the section's length in relation to his or her height or dependent upon the intended manner of use.
- In the embodiment that comprises a support member having angled sections, the angle between at least one of said sections and the seating member may be adjusted. According to this embodiment, the user may adjust one or both of the angled sections such that one of such sections can be placed in desired positions ranging from substantially horizontal, through intermediate positions and to positions of various angles.
- In an alternate embodiment, the support member has a form whereby both sections of the support member are substantially in the horizontal plane and cannot be adjusted, or in the alternative, one of said sections may be adjusted to various angles while the other section remains horizontally plane.
- The recessed section of the support member, where the seat member preferably is placed, will preferably be arranged substantially at the midpoint of the support member. Further in accordance with one embodiment of the invention, the lower surface of the seat member facing the recessed section of the support member will have a form that is compatible with the recessed section. The seat member can take various forms, so long as the form provides the ability for the seat member to rotate in relation to the support member. It is to be understood that it is not required that the seat member be mounted in a recessed section, however such an arrangement is preferred.
- Because the seat member can rotate in relation to the support member, the user can easily vary his or her position by, for example, rotating the seat member such that the user can switch from a seated position to one where the user rests his or her legs on the support member. The rotating seat member on the support member also allows the chair to be used from both sides. When the chair is placed in the middle of a room it thus provides a flexible means of use.
- In an alternative embodiment, a plurality of seat members can be arranged on the support member, and the chair according to the invention can thus be used by several persons simultaneously. Alternatively, it is also possible to provide a plurality of support members side-by-side, or one after the other, in order to provide a piece of furniture that may be used by several persons. One or more seat members in this embodiment can be arranged on each support member.
- The support member, when viewed from above, will preferably have a shape that tapers in towards the recessed section, and with the recessed section being placed at the midpoint this shape will be symmetrical. The tapered shape provides a comfortable sitting position for the user when seated on the seat member using the back support member, with his or her feet on the floor. The shape of the support member with broader sections against the short side's edge area gives good support for the various parts of the body in the various positions. The support member can however have different shapes when viewed from above; the shape can be asymmetric, curved, rectangular etc. It is left to the preferences of one skilled in the art to select the shape that is most advantageous in any given circumstance.
- The support member will preferably be supplied with an undercarriage that ensures that the parts of the chair, such as for instance the seat member, have an appropriate height above the floor. In other embodiments, the piece of furniture according to the invention can be arranged such that the seat member is positioned at the same level as the floor, possibly such that the support member forms an extra seating surface.
- In one embodiment, the support member's undercarriage is formed as four legs that may be angled or vertically attached to the support member. The number and attachment areas can vary depending upon the additional functions of the piece of furniture. Alternatively, the undercarriage may be a crossed-foot arrangement. In other embodiments, the undercarriage can be, for example, a foundation having a cradle-like form, The piece of furniture can also be supplied with runners that may or may not be removable. The piece of furniture can have other types of undercarriage than those named here.
