Definitions

  • Tfn's invention has as its object to solve the problem of producing such a stool.
  • the invent-ion relates to a stool which comprises a few main parts and members for connecting the same.
  • the invention is substantially characterized in that the main parts and details of the coupling members are designed as truncated cones having substantially the same conicity, and that two equal or two different stool parts can be combined with one another or that one stool part can be combined with another part of furniture known per se, in such a manner, that two equal or two different coupling members are used for connecting the parts, according to the type of furniture desired.
  • All parts are preferably made of a plastic material of high strength and toughness, rendering it possible to give the walls in the different parts of the stool optimum thinness, which makes the stool easier to stack, reduces its weight and, consequently, its manufacturing costs.
  • FIG. 1 shows a cross-section of a stool assembled of two different stool parts
  • FIG. 2 shows in an exploded view a cross-section of the stool according to FIG. 1 with an intermediate portion mounted thereon.
  • the stool part 1 is the foot which is placed with its larger base surface on the support. Said surface is in addition widened to funnel shape by an annular peripheral portion 2 providing a stable carrying surface.
  • the upper smaller base surface of the foot part is provided with a downward tapering recess 3 defined by a bottom 4 with a central hole therein for a coupling member.
  • the stool part 5 which constitutes the seat part has at its larger base surface substantially the same diameter as the foot part, but its base surface is turned upwards.
  • a flange 6 is provided, to the inside of which and in spaced parallel relationship therewith a second flange 7 preferably lower than flange 6 can be arranged.
  • Said inner flange 7 is intended to support a disk or seat cushion 11 mounted inside of the outer flange 6, which cushion may be provided on its lower surface with a fastening clam-p or the like for a screw.
  • the disk or seat cushion 11 may, of course, be of such size that it projects outside of flange 7 and rests upon the same.
  • the smaller base surface of the seat part 5 which can be inserted into the recess 3 of foot part 1 has a central hole corresponding to the hole in bottom 4 of said reice cess, rendering it possible to lock the said two parts together by a coupling member.
  • the stool is provided with an intermediate part 8 for increasing its height to a certain standard.
  • the intermediate part is shaped like a truncated cone and has in its downward larger base surface a recess 9 which corresponds to the upper 'portion of stool part 1.
  • the intermediate part 8 is mounted over said stool part, in such a manner, that the upper portion of the latter projects into the recess 9 and thereby increases the height of the foot part.
  • a second conical recess 10 is arranged which corresponds to the lower portion of the seat part 5.
  • the said lower portion can be inserted in the foot part thus extended which results in a stool considerably higher than before.
  • all stool parts are preferably made of normally flexible plastic material, in this first embodiment all parts will be wedged to another after their assembly.
  • one of the parts is to be turned somewhat relative to the other part at the same time as it is pulled therefrom. In this way, the parts separate very easily from one another.
  • a coupling member can be inserted in the holes provided in the parts for this purpose. It is also possible to lock the seat cushion 11 together with the remaining parts, for example by means of a long lock-pin in combination with the fastening clamp on the lower surface of said cushion.
  • the walls in the different stool parts can be made thin, for example 2.5 mm., which means that about stool feet can be stacked one above the other without producing a stack higher than about 2 m.
  • the remaining stool parts are stacked in a corresponding manner.
  • a stool assembly comprising an upstanding base having an upwardly opening recess, a stool member having an intergrant depending post freely telescopically received in said recess, said recess and depending post being in the shape of truncated cones to be wedged in each other and having a vertical dimension greater than its major diameter for providing lateral stability wherein said base is truncated cone-shaped with an outwardly flared lower end for engaging a large area of a supporting surface.
