Definitions
- the invention relates to a seat part with the seat of a seat.
- Seat parts with seating surfaces of the type mentioned at the outset are regularly used in different areas, not only in office chairs, but also in motor vehicles and wherever sitting is prolonged, that is to say several hours.
- Conventional chairs, armchairs, general seating areas are designed in such a way that they have a full area in the form of a quadrilateral, the side areas being partially rounded and possibly being drawn upwards.
- the seating area is dimensioned so that it does not only have the area intended for sitting of the human body, namely the buttocks, but also with other areas, in particular the anal area of the human body, comes into pressure connection, with the result that the pressure from the chair is transmitted to the entire skeleton of the user, in particular the backbone. The result is fatigue, low back pain, etc.
- the joints and genitals of the users are also stressed, which causes further problems.
- the object of the invention is to remedy this.
- the invention is in any case implemented when it is a seat part whose seat has a recess which divides the seat into a right and a left seat.
- the individual partial seating surfaces can in particular be adjustable in the horizontal and / or vertical direction, so that they can be optimally adjusted to the seating areas (buttocks) of the user.
- the right and left seat surface areas can be designed as separate parts that are supported by a common base body, but they can also be formed in one piece, whereby they are relatively adjustable relative to one another.
- the seat part can also have a central part which is preferably deformable and can be acted upon by pressure medium, for example gas or liquid.
- pressure medium for example gas or liquid.
- a rear horizontally and vertically adjustable support is provided, whose vertical angle of inclination is adjustable.
- the advantage of these measures is that all parts of the human body that are in pressure connection with the seat part are equally loaded. Parts of the human body that are not intended or not suitable for transferring weight, such as joints, genitals and the coccyx, are not in pressure contact with the seat and are therefore relieved. This also does not stress the anal opening (anus). Rather, only those parts of the human body are used that are intended and suitable for the sitting process.
- FIG. 5 shows a vertical section of a seat with a right and a left seat surface area and a middle part, which is adjustable in height and partially elastically deformable
- FIG. 6 is a side view of a chair, the backrest of which is pivotable and adjustable, 7 the chair shown in FIG. 6 in a perspective view,
- Fig.10 a right seat surface area
- FIG. 11 shows a seat part with two seat surfaces which are individually adjustable and can be connected to a base body by means of a Velcro fastener.
- a chair is shown with a seat part 1 having a seat part and a frame 6.
- the seat 1 consists of a right seat surface section 3 and a left seat surface section 2.
- a backrest 9 is provided in the back area of the user.
- the special feature of the embodiment of FIG. 1 is that the recess 4 is formed as a cutout, the seat part being an integral body.
- the two seat surface sections 2 and 3 are separate parts which are adjustable and adjustable in the direction of the arrows. The adjustment of the seat areas 2 and 3 can be carried out simultaneously or individually, so that the width of the recess can be adjusted as required.
- the seat 1 shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 can fundamentally have different shapes and is not limited to the flat design of the seat 1 shown here.
- An essential feature of the embodiments shown in Figures 1 to 3 is the recess 4, which ensures that the user comes into contact with the chair only through parts of the body that can optimally absorb the weight of the user without stressing the body itself.
- FIG. 3 shows that a central part 5 engages in the recess 4, which ends in the rear region of the seat 1 and below the level of the right and left seat parts 2 and 3.
- the part 5 sags in the central area, but its height can be adjusted with respect to the seat surface 1 by means of a mechanism, not shown. This mechanism is such that the maximum or minimum width of the recess 7 covers all intended areas of use.
- FIGS. 4, 5 and 10 show that the middle part 5 can be adjusted in the direction of the double arrow by means of an adjustment mechanism 18.
- the two seat surface sections 2 and 3 are mirror images of one another and are dimensioned such that the right seat surface section 3 has a section 33 which merges into a rising side section 32 and at the rear into a rear rising section 31, while the left seat surface section 31 2 has a front flat section 23 which merges into a rising side section 22 and at the rear into a rear rising section 21.
- the front flat part 33, the rising side part 32 and the rear rising part 31 go continuously sinking into the area 34 of the right seat surface part facing the recess 4
- the front flat section 33 of the right seat surface section 3 has a front and downward inclined section 35 and that the front flat section 23 of the left seat surface section 2 has a front and downward section 25.
- the middle part 5 and the side parts 22 and 32 are provided with an elastically deformable piece 20, which preferably consists of plastic or is filled with gas.
- 8 shows a mechanism by means of which the seat parts 2 and 3 are adjustable and adjustable in the direction of the double arrows.
- a pulling element 11 with a rotating part 12 is provided, the pulling element 11 having a right-hand thread 13 which engages in an adjusting body 16 and a left-hand thread 14 which engages in an adjusting element 15.
- the traction element 11 is rotatably mounted in a guide and is connected to the central part 5 in an operational manner. By rotating the rotating body 12 and by the choice of the threads 13 and 14 it is achieved that the seat surface parts 3 are adjustable towards and away from each other.
- FIG. 9 shows that the rear part 51 of the middle part 5 ends below the plane of the seat 1.
- the middle part 5 sags in the recess 4 and works together with a height adjustment mechanism 18.
- This mechanism 18 has a pulling part 19 which is rotatably arranged in the central region of the part 5.
- the tension member 19 has a thread which engages in a nut of the body 6.
- Figures 6 and 7 show that the pivotable backrest 8 with a support 7 and a vertically adjustable member 61 and a horizontally adjustable member 62 cooperation.
- Fig. 1 1 shows that the seat surface parts 2,3 are separate bodies, which are connected to a carrier 10, e.g. can be connected by means of a Velcro fastener.
