Abstract
Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The invention relates to a table comprising a table top and at least one bow foot which is swingable between a transportation position in which it is swung in so as to rest against a surface of the table top, and a swung out utilization position, said bow foot having a base limb and at least one table leg, the bow foot experiencing an offset between its transportation position and its utilization position axially to its base limb, which offset is controlled by a control tenon guided in a control track.
- 2. Background Art
- A table of this kind is e.g. known from WO 03/068020 A 1 and comprises a rectangular table top, which is fitted on its underside with two swingable U-shaped bow feet, each comprising a base limb for resting on the table top and two table legs. The bow feet are each swingable from a transportation position abutting against the underside of the table top into an utilization position in which the table legs have an essentially right-angle orientation relative to the table top. When they are swung between their utilization position and their transportation position, the bow feet each experience an offset in an axial direction relative to their base limbs. The offset is controlled by a control track, which is part of a housing mounted on the underside of the table top and in which there is guided a tenon, which is firmly attached to the bow foot. The control track comprises a tenon receptacle into which the tenon, which is firmly attached to the bow foot, snaps self-actingly when the relevant bow foot is in the swung-out condition owing to the effect of a spring device. To swing the bow feet into the transportation position they have to be pushed against the spring force of the spring device in the axial direction of the relevant base limb. This may involve a high expenditure of force.
- It is an object of the present invention to create a table of the aforementioned kind having at least one swingable bow foot which may be offset in the lateral direction of the table and which is movable with little expenditure of force between a swung-in transportation position and swung-out utilization position and vice versa.
- According to the present invention, this object is achieved by the table comprising a table top and at least one bow foot which is swingable between a transportation position in which it is swung in so as to rest against a surface of the table top, and a swung out utilization position, said bow foot having a base limb and at least one table leg, the bow foot experiencing an offset between its transportation position and its utilization position axially to its base limb, which offset is controlled by a control tenon guided in a control track, wherein the control track is formed on the circumference of the base limb and the control tenon is firmly attached to the table top.
- According to the invention it is therefore proposed that the control track be formed on the circumference of the base limb and the control tenon be firmly attached to the table top. Through this arrangement of the control track and the control tenon, the bow foot may be swung with little expenditure of force and at the same time experience an offset in the axial direction of the base limb such that opposing table legs, which are aligned with each other in the utilization position, can be laid down on the underside of the table top without colliding with each other. The design of the control track preferably defines the end positions of the relevant bow foot by having the control tenon, which is firmly attached to the table top, moving against a stop formed by the end-side edge of the control track.
- In a preferred embodiment of the table according to the invention, the control track is formed in a control shell fixedly attached to the base limb. The control shell can especially be designed as a diecast part made of zinc or aluminium and in this way withstand high stresses which may act as a result of the acting leverage forces of the relevant bow foot.
- To make a rotationally fixed connection with the base limb of the bow foot, the control shell may comprise a fastening tenon that reaches through the base limb. The base limb is then equipped with corresponding openings.
- To secure the transportation position and the utilization position of the bow foot, the control shell may comprise at least two bar elements, which are aligned radially relative to the axis of the base limb, which cooperate with a locking device, and of which one defines the transportation position and the other the utilization position of the bow foot. In a simplified embodiment the control shell may also comprise only one such bar element which secures the bow foot in its utilization position. In the transportation position the bow foot is then unsecured and thus swingable or secured by alternative measures.
- In a special embodiment of the table according to the invention, the fastening tenon forms, on its free front face end, one of the bar elements. The fastening tenon thus has the dual function of preventing the control shell from rotating relative to the base limb and securing one of the bow foot positions.
- The locking device is, for example, formed by a swingable bar arm, preferably of a plate-like design, which comprises in its end section facing away from its swing axis a recess or pocket for one of the bar elements to engage with. Depending on the swing position of the bar foot, either the one or the other of the two bar elements formed on the control shell then engages with said recess.
- In a preferred embodiment the bar arm is pre-tensioned by means of a spring device in the blocking direction. When the bar arm is released, the relevant bar element thus self-actingly engages with the corresponding recess of the bar arm.
- In an embodiment realized with little construction space, the spring device is formed by an elastomer body, which acts on a tongue or the like of the deployment arm.
- The pre-tension of the spring device is preferably adjustable.
- To be able to swing the locking device in a simple manner manually into the release position or the blocking position, there is preferably envisaged an actuation element for the locking device.
- The actuation element can in particular be an actuation lever with a handle that is aligned parallel to the swing axis of the actuation lever.
- To be able to swing the bar arm in an easy manner into the release position, the actuation lever preferably comprises in the area of its swing axis a cam element, by means of which the locking device is swingable between a release position and a blocking position. Here, the cam element can actively guide the movement of the locking device or of the bar arm or only release the swinging of the locking device, which is performed by the spring element.
