Calif, assignor of one-fourth to Buddy Richard Barasch, Los Angeles, Calif.
Filed Sept. 17, 1962, Ser. No. 224,094 8 Claims. (Cl. 297-105) This application relates to a convertible chair-lounge, and more particularly, to a chair-lounge adapted to be utilized as a conventional easy chair or as a lounge chair for relaxing.
This application is a continuation-in-part of my c0- pending application Serial No. 132,702, filed August 21, 1961, now abandoned, entitled Convertible Chair Lounge.
Conventional convertible chair-lounges are usually characterized by the provision of extremely complex linkages and extensible-retractable portions connected to said linkages which greatly increase the manufacturing cost of such chair-lounges.
In addition, conventional chair-lounges usually do not resemble ordinary articles of furniture, such as an easy chair, but are characterized by a unique appearance which makes it diificult to incorporate them in a decorating scheme.
It is, therefore, an object of my invention to provide a convertible chair-lounge which is characterized by the fact that it incorporates a minimum number of rigid moving parts and a relatively simple linkage so that it can be manufactured at a relatively low cost.
Another object of my invention is the provision of a convertible chair-lounge of the aforementioned character which closely simulates the appearance of a conventional easy chair and which can, therefore, be readily incorporated in a decorative scheme.
Another aspect of conventional chairdounges is the fact that, due to the incorporation of a plurality of rigid extensible parts, they can assume only one lounge attitude to which the user of the chair must adapt himself.
It is, therefore, an object of my invention to provide a convertible chair'lounge which is characterized by the provision of a pivotally mounted back cushion and an extensible'retractable ottoman, there being provided a flexible, hammock-like sling between said back cushion and said ottoman which is adapted to conform to the body of the user of the chair and which is also adapted to change the attitude of the back cushion in order to facilitate the angular orientation thereof into conformity with the individual reclining in the chair.
An additional object of my invention is the provision of a chair-lounge of the aforementioned character which includes an ottoman linkage adapted to extend or retract said ottoman, said linkage incorporating spring means adapted to facilitate the extension of said ottoman.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the following specification and the accompanying drawings which are for the purpose of illustration only, and in which:
FIG. 1 is a sectional View of a chair lounge constructed in accordance with the teachings of my invention;
FIG. 2 is a vertical, sectional view showing the chair lounge in its extended position;
FIG. 3 is an enlarged, fragmentary sectional view of the ottoman linkage;
FIG. 4 is an enlarged view of the hammock portion of the chair lounge;
FIG. 5 is a vertical, sectional view of an alternative embodiment of the convertible chair lounge in its retracted position;
FIG. 6 is a view of another alternative embodiment of the chair lounge in its retracted position; and
3,145,049 Patented Aug. 18, 1964 FIG. 7 is an enlarged, fragmentary, sectional View showing the embodiment of FIG. 6 in its extended position.
Referring to the drawings, and particularly to FIGS. 14 thereof, I show a chair lounge 10 constructed in accordance with the teachings of my invention and including a frame 12 which incorporates a base 14, side frame members 16 secured to said base, and a back including transverse back members 13. The frame 12 is supported upon feet 22 on a floor or other supporting surface 24.
The space between the back 13 and the side members 16, and above the base 14, constitutes a receptacle for the reception of an ottoman 30 which is disposable in its retracted position, as best shown in FIG. 1 of the drawings, within said receptacle. In its extended position, as best shown in FIG. 2 of the drawings, the ottoman 3t is disposed in front of and in spaced relationship with the frame 12.
The ottoman 30, as best shown in FIGS. 2-6, includes a frame 32 constituted by side rails 34-, a front stiffener 36, and a rear brace 38, and incorporates a cushion 42, extending between said side rails. The rear brace 33 may be formed from wood, or the like.
The rear extremity of the ottoman 3th is connected to the forward extremity of the frame 12 by means of pivotal linkages 5d at each side of the ottoman 3t constituted by links 52 and 54 pivotally secured to each other.
Incorporated in each linkage 5th is a leg 56 which automatically folds down when the ottoman is moved into its extended position. The link 52 is connected to the front of the chair frame 12 by a bracket 57 to which it is pivotally secured. Its other end is pivotally connected to a bracket 59 secured to the sides 34 of the ottoman 30.
The link 54 has its inner end pivotally secured to the link 52 intermediate its extremities. The forward end of the link 54 is pivotally secured to the upper extremity of the leg 56 which is pivotally secured intermediate its extremities to the bracket 59. Therefore, when the ottoman 3d is moved into the extended position of FIG. 2 the links 52 and 54 open to move the leg 56 down into the position of FIG. 2.
When the ottoman 34 is retracted, as best shown in FIG. 1, the brackets 59 are supported upon a. transversely oriented support 61 at each side of the chair It An upholstered back cushion is hingedly secured at its upper extremity to the upper one of the back members 18 of the frame 12 by a hinge 15. A flexible hammock or sling 9h having a bolster or cushion 92 thereupon has its rear extremity secured to the lower extremity of the back cushion 80 and its forward extremity secured to the transverse stiffener 38 at the rear extremity of the ottoman 3t) and is adapted to be moved from a folded position beneath the hinged upholstered back cushion 80 and the ottoman 30 to an extended position in which it spans the space between the lower edge of the upholstered back cushion tit) and the rear extremity of the ottoman 36*.
A loose cushion 98 is placed over the ottoman 30 when it is in its retracted position. When the ottoman 30 is extended, the cushion 98 is placed on the hammock next to the cushion 92 and behind the ottoman 30.
To utilize the chair lounge 1% for lounging, it is merely necessary to grasp the front of the ottoman 30 and pull it out of the receptacle defined by the frame 12. When fully extended, the ottoman 30 will be located in the extended position shown in FIG. 2 of the drawings and maintained in an inclined orientation by the links 52 and 54. When returning the ottoman 30 to its retracted position, the hinged back cushion 80 moves rearwardly to facilitate the folding of the hammock W and the bolster 92 thereupon below the ottoman 30. The forward extremity of the ottoman 3t) blends smoothly into the frame 12 of the chair 10 and the loose cushion 98 is placed in overlying relationship therewith.
An alternative embodiment 110 of the chair lounge of the invention shown in FIG. 5 of the drawings and difiers from the chair lounge in that the hammock 90 includes a plurality of bolsters 92.
Another embodiment 120 of the chair lounge is shown in FIGS. 6 and 7 of the drawings and differs from the embodiment 10 by the provision of a linkage 122 between the ottoman and the frame 12 which includes two links 132 and 134 on each side of the frame 12 and ottoman in place of the link 52.
A plate 136 pivotally supports the. links 132 and 1.34 and incorporates an arcuate opening 137 and the associated extremity of the link 1132 is adapated to move in a corresponding arc across said opening, and is provided with a detent shoulder 138 therein engageable by a latch 140 mounted on an actuating handle 142. A tension spring 144 is engageable with said extremity of said link 132, and is adapted to facilitate the extension of the ottoman 30 by swinging the associated link 132 about its pivot to extend the ottoman 30.
However, when the ottoman 39 is in its retracted position, the latch 140 is automatically engageable upon the detent shoulder 138 on the lower extremity of the link 132, and prevents the tension spring 144 from rotating the associated link 132. The lower extremity of the link 132 is, best shown in FIG. 7 of the drawings, provided with a recess 143 engageable by the associated extremity of the tension spring 144 to permit the link 132 to engage the tension spring 144.
Therefore, once the handle 142 is depressed, the latch 140 is withdrawn from engagement with the detent shoulder 138 and the tension spring will assist in extending the ottoman 30. When the ottoman 30 is returned to its retracted position, the link 132 picks up the tension spring 144 in the recess 143, and extends the same until the latch 140 engages the detent shoulder 138 on said link.
