Abstract

An article of furniture having a seat of a generally constant orientation but a back which can be tilted at various angles has a generally X-shaped relationship of the seat and back and, on each side a pair of horizontally spaced pins, affixed to the seat, one of which rides on the upper surface of a cooperating member of the back while the other can be selectively fitted into notches of a rack structure on the lower edge of the respective member. The upper edge or surface of these members have a cam configuration and the distance separating this edge from the bottoms of each of the respective notches is progressively increased downwardly along the rack so that the seat inclination is substantially constant for all positions in which the pins engage the notches.

Description

L'invention a pour objet un siège dont l'inclinaison du dossier est règlable pour lui permettre de passer de la position de chaise à diverses positions de fauteuil, plus ou moins inclinées, et vice-versa.The subject of the invention is a seat whose inclination of the backrest is adjustable to enable it to pass from the chair position to various armchair positions, more or less inclined, and vice versa.

Les sièges de ce genre sont nombreux; et c'est ainsi qu'il est connu un type de sièges présentant une forme générale de X et constitué par deux éléments rigides qui se croisent en s'imbriquant et constituent l'un le dossier et les pieds avant, et l'autre l'assise et les pieds arrière; et la liaison entre ces deux éléments est faite par appui de deux doigts des montants de l'un des éléments dans deux crémaillères aménagées sur les bords supérieurs des montants de l'autre élément. En faisant prendre appui à l'élément intérieur dans l'un ou l'autre des crans de ces crémaillères, il est possible d'ouvrir plus ou moins l'X formé par les deux éléments du siège, et ainsi d'incliner plus ou moins son dossier. Le règlage est donc facile, et le positionnement est efficace et sûr, mais le confort du siège n'est pas bon dans toutes les positions. Du principe même de ce siège il résulte, en effet, que l'inclinaison de son assise, qui est relativement montante lorsque le dossier est assez redressé, est au contraire descendante lorsque le dossier est assez incliné; en d'autres termes, plus le dossier est incliné vers le bas, plus la hauteur du bord avant de l'assise par rapport au sol est faible. L'utilisateur étendu sur le siège en position très inclinée tend à glisser, car il n'est pas retenu par l'assise qui ne forme alors qu'un très faible angle avec le dossier. Ce manque de confort est préjudiciable à ce type de siège qui présente, par ailleurs, les avantages d'avoir un règlage facile, de pouvoir être démonté instantanément et d'être peu encombrant à l'état démonté.There are many such seats; and this is how it is known a type of seats having a general shape of X and constituted by two rigid elements which intersect while interlocking and constitute one the backrest and the front legs, and the other l 'seat and rear feet; and the connection between these two elements is made by pressing two fingers of the uprights of one of the elements in two racks arranged on the upper edges of the uprights of the other element. By making support on the interior element in one or the other of the notches of these racks, it is possible to open more or less the X formed by the two elements of the seat, and thus to tilt more or minus his record. Adjustment is therefore easy, and positioning is efficient and safe, but the comfort of the seat is not good in all positions. From the very principle of this seat it follows, in fact, that the inclination of its seat, which is relatively rising when the backrest is sufficiently straightened, is on the contrary descending when the backrest is sufficiently inclined; in other words, the more the backrest is inclined downwards, the lower the height of the front edge of the seat relative to the ground. The user lying on the seat in a very inclined position tends to slip, because it is not retained by the seat which then forms only a very small angle with the backrest. This lack of comfort is detrimental to this type of seat which has, moreover, the advantages of having an easy adjustment, of being able to be disassembled instantly and of being compact in the disassembled state.

L'invention remédie à l'inconvénient précité de manque de confort de ces sièges. Elle a pour objet un siège du type précité dans lequel les crémaillères de positionnement et de réglage sont aménagées sur les bords inférieurs des deux montants du dossier, et les deux montants de l'assise portent chacun deux doigts, dont l'un coopère avec l'un des crans de la crémaillère du montant correspondant du dossier, et dont l'autre coopère avec le bord supérieur de ce montant.The invention overcomes the aforementioned drawback of the lack of comfort in these seats. It relates to a seat of the aforementioned type in which the positioning and adjustment racks are arranged on the lower edges of the two uprights of the backrest, and the two uprights of the seat each carry two fingers, one of which cooperates with one of the notches of the rack of the corresponding amount of the backrest, and the other of which cooperates with the upper edge of this amount.

Pour atteindre le but recherché, qui est essentiellement d'avoir une assise dont la hauteur est nettement descendante depuis son bord avant jusqu'à son bord arrière, il est d'ailleurs nécessaire de donner un profil déterminé au bord supérieur des deux montants du dossier. Ce profil est obtenu en donnant à ce bord supérieur un profil de came tel que la distance séparant ledit bord et le fond des encoches de la crémaillère aille en augmentant depuis l'extrémité supérieure de la crémaillère jusqu'à son extrémité inférieure.To achieve the desired goal, which is essentially to have a seat whose height is clearly descending from its front edge to its rear edge, it is also necessary to give a determined profile to the upper edge of the two uprights of the backrest . This profile is obtained by giving this upper edge a cam profile such that the distance separating said edge and the bottom of the notches of the rack goes increasing from the upper end of the rack to its lower end.

L'invention sera bien comprise d'ailleurs à l'aide de la description qui suit, en référence au dessin schématique annexé représentant, à titre d'exemple non limitatif, une forme d'exécution de ce siège :

  • Figures 1 et 2 en sont des vues de côté en élévation dans ses deux positions extrêmes d'ouverture.
The invention will also be clearly understood with the aid of the description which follows, with reference to the appended schematic drawing representing, by way of nonlimiting example, an embodiment of this seat:
  • Figures 1 and 2 are side views in elevation in its two extreme open positions.

Dans ce dessin, 1 désigne chacun des deux montants du dossier du siège et 2 désigne chacun des deux montants de son assise, les deux montants étant pour le dossier et pour le siège réunis par des éléments quelconques qui constituent à proprement parler respectivement le dossier et l'assise. C'est d'ailleurs ainsi qu'avantageusement les deux montants 1 d'une part, et les deux montants 2 d'autre part, viennent de moulage en matière plastique avec les surfaces constitutives respectivement du dossier et de l'assise.In this drawing, 1 designates each of the two uprights of the seat backrest and 2 designates each of the two uprights of its seat, the two uprights being for the backrest and for the seat joined by any elements which constitute strictly speaking the backrest and the seat. This is also how advantageously the two uprights 1 on the one hand, and the two uprights 2 on the other hand, come from plastic molding with the constituent surfaces of the backrest and the seat respectively.

Comme cela est connu en soi, les deux montants 1 du dossier et les deux montants 2 de l'assise constituent un X dont les angles d'ouverture sont réglables pour permettre de régler les inclinaisons relatives du dossier et de l'assise, des moyens étant prévus pour immobiliser les montants 1 par rapport à ceux 2 et pour permettre néanmoins le règlage de leurs positions relatives.As is known per se, the two uprights 1 of the backrest and the two uprights 2 of the seat constitute an X whose opening angles are adjustable to allow the relative inclinations of the backrest and seat to be adjusted, means being provided to immobilize the uprights 1 relative to those 2 and to nevertheless allow adjustment of their relative positions.

Ce sont précisément ces moyens qui constituent l'originalité du siège représenté aux figures 1 et 2. Selon ces moyens, chacun des deux montants 1 du dossier présente, sous son bord inférieur, une crémaillère 2 constituée par des crans 4 dont le nombre est de trois dans le cas représenté au dessin, afin de permettre de donner trois positions différentes d'utilisation au fauteuil. Chacun des deux montants 2 de l'assise porte, en regard de chacun des deux montants 1, deux doigts désignés respectivement par 5a et 5b.It is precisely these means which constitute the originality of the seat shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. According to these means, each of the two uprights 1 of the backrest has, under its lower edge, a rack 2 constituted by notches 4 the number of which is three in the case shown in the drawing, to allow giving three different positions of use to the chair. Each of the two uprights 2 of the seat carries, opposite each of the two uprights 1, two fingers designated respectively by 5a and 5b.

L'agencement du fauteuil étant tel que la partie inférieure des montants 2 de l'assise puisse passer à l'intérieur d'un cadre délimité par les montants 1 du dossier, le doigt 5a du montant 2 coopère avec l'un des crans 4 de la crémaillère 3, en prenant appui au fond de ce cran, cependant que l'autre doigt 5b prend appui sur le bord supérieur du montant 1. Les deux montants 1 et 2 sont ainsi immobilisés l'un par rapport à l'autre, et dans le cas représenté au dessin le doigt 5a prend appui dans le cran supérieur 4 de la crémaillère, ce qui donne au fauteuil l'angle d'ouverture maximum. Dans cette position, le dossier est très incliné et l'assise est elle-même inclinée.The arrangement of the chair being such that the lower part of the uprights 2 of the seat can pass inside a frame delimited by the uprights 1 of the backrest, the finger 5a of the upright 2 cooperates with one of the notches 4 of the rack 3, bearing on the bottom of this notch, while the other finger 5b is supported on the upper edge of the upright 1. The two uprights 1 and 2 are thus immobilized relative to one another, and in the case shown in the drawing, the finger 5a is supported in the upper notch 4 of the rack, which gives the chair the maximum opening angle. In this position, the backrest is very inclined and the seat is itself inclined.

Dans la position représentée à la figure 2, le doigt 5a prenant appui dans le cran inférieur 4 dé là crémaillère, le fauteuil est moins ouvert, le dossier est moins relevé, mais l'assise présente sensiblement la même inclinaison que dans la position d'ouverture maximale représentée à la figure 1.In the position shown in Figure 2, the finger 5a resting in the lower notch 4 there rack, the chair is less open, the backrest is less raised, but the seat has substantially the same inclination as in the position maximum opening shown in figure 1.

Il est donc important de noter que, quelle que soit l'inclinaison donnée au dossier, c'est-à-dire quel que soit le cran 4 dans lequel prend appui le doigt 5a, l'inclinaison de l'assise délimitée par la partie avant et supérieure des deux montants 2 est toujours sensiblement la même. Cela résulte de la forme de came 6 donnée au bord supérieur des deux montants 1; il est en effet visible que la distance d comprise entre le bord supérieur du montant 1 et le fond de chaque cran 4 va en diminuant depuis le cran supérieur jusqu'à celui inférieur de la crémaillère.It is therefore important to note that, whatever the inclination given to the backrest, that is to say whatever the notch 4 in which the finger 5a rests, the inclination of the seat delimited by the part front and upper of the two uprights 2 is always substantially the same. This results from the cam shape 6 given to the upper edge of the two uprights 1; it is indeed visible that the distance d between the upper edge of the amount 1 and the bottom of each notch 4 decreases from the upper notch to the lower one of the rack.

Comme il va de soi, l'invention ne se limite pas bien entendu à la seule forme d'exécution qui a été ci-dessus décrite et représentée à titre d'exemple sur le dessin ci-joint, en ce qui concerne la forme des montants du siège; elle en embrasse au contraire toutes les variantes de réalisation, quels que soient notamment les agencements du dossier et de l'assise du siège, ainsi que les accessoires dont il peut être muni.It goes without saying that the invention is of course not limited to the only embodiment which has been described above and shown by way of example in the attached drawing, as regards the shape of the seat uprights; on the contrary, it embraces all the variant embodiments thereof, whatever in particular the arrangements of the backrest and of the seat, as well as the accessories with which it may be provided.
