STACKABLE RELAXATION BUCKET

  The present invention relates to a priori tubular device COUCHETTE, associated with an enveloping fabric and stretched on the back of the

tubes by an elastic lacing.

  The essential and particular characteristics of this material are, in aluminum, this berth is very light (less than 5 Kgs) rigorous and parallel stacking of multiple elements (height 5 cm multiplied by the number of pieces). 8 and 9 -the removal of the usual mattress / cushion.-but the particularly inconvenient inconvenience of this one that one meets in all

  existing models already on the market.

  - Adjustment at will of the inclination of the backrest Fig 3 which passes without difficulty from the extended horizontal position (ventral or dorsal)

  in the raised position, the bust and the head being in comfortable backrest.

  - the height on the ground (about 35 cm) is sufficient to use the berth in a seated position with the possibility of getting up

effortlessly.

  Most furniture with similar vocation, visible in

  all places, respond only very partially to these various criteria.

The chassis is supported on the ground:

  - at the foot, with a trapezoid-shaped base - Fig.5 inclined plane -

  for the sides 3, for the base5 whose lower angles 4 are bent, 4 bis

  inclined on its plane about 70 / for stacking according to the invention.

  - To the backsplash, by two legs in the form of an unequal rectangle 16 and 17 whose plane is perfectly vertical but offset outwardly to allow the passage of the feet of the other bunk beds according to the invention. The lower angle 14 of these triangles is also bent and close to 90 'These four points of support, constitute a bearing surface

  which ensures the whole a perfect stability on the ground with a penetration-

  minimum in sand, pebbles or loose earth.

  Still according to the invention, the geometry of the assembly, the position of the various legs as well as the angles that it forms with the frame, the articulation of the backrest, its alignment and its position on the frame, the implantation. and the diameter of the cylinders that fit into the triangle of the feet near the bust, the width and angle of the gussets with the frame, contribute without exception to the rigorous stacking sought in

this invention.

  Briefly drawn on page 3/3, we see Fig 8 the perspective

susrposées

  two berths in "sitting" and "lying" positions 5 piece sFig 9 -

  the two storage modes, the Horizontal being presented on the Carriage of

Transport 46, optional 2.

  For a better visualization of the superposed berths and

  to overcome the precariousness of the drawing, they were drawn alternately

  in solid black and fine lines. The cart itself at the medium line

and guilloche.

  The STORAGE being indeed the FUNDAMENTAL objective of this INVENTION, it is thus achieved perfectly, without any problem of any kind for the Tubes - the Web and the Pillow: - either VERTICALLY: with a support on the wall 41, an inclination 43 of a few degrees (about 4 to 5) and the floor 42 with a triangular wedge 44 cm thick / lm long, in this example, 20 berths are accessible

easily self-service.

  - Or HORIZONTALLY Fig 8 alldhnge backrest and Fig 9, the first bunk on the ground 42 exactly as on the conveyor 46, nested within each other at a rate of 50 m / m of thickness per berth, if carried out in a tube of 0 20 m / m. With the height of the feet of the first, celA actually represents: 34 berths on two meters high with

  2m 30 x 0.70 length-width floor.

_: -: -: -

  By way of nonlimiting example, we will describe an embodiment of the INVENTION with aluminum tubes of 0 m / m 20, thickness 1.6 curved at all points with the smallest radius possible and which passes through the making the following parts:

- Room No. l - MAIN FRAMEWORK -

  It is a curved tube (Fig 1 and 3 profile - 4 / plan) in the form of symmetrical fork whose horns form two bars 1 horizontal, their ends will be welded to the crosspiece 12 of the part 3 (described

  lower). The tubes are spaced so as to obtain 60 cm overall.

  Arrived at the foot of the berth, these two bars are bent in 2 down tPV1110 and at the same time in 2 bis my 12 'outwards and form the two uprights 3 which constitute a base whose plane is inclined, which has the shape of a trapezium whose base 5 is arched with an arrow 5 bis 2 to 4 cm to obtain a better range

  with the ground at both ends joining 3 with two hangers 4.

  An arched crosspiece 6 with 6 cm arrow V8 joins the two bars 1 at the location of their junction 7 with the piece 3, its

foot 17 at the corner 15.

  -3- Welded at both ends with the assembly mentioned above, this crossbar increases the rigidity of the assembly resistant to

  the embrace of the canvas and the deformation of the legs to the outside.

  To avoid the shearing of the fabric of the backsplash / frame oon will realize from the angle 15 and on the two tubes 1, a slight offset 8 down against-bent 10 m / m on the horizontal plane and parallel to the ground up to 'at their junction with the transom 12. Two cages 8 bis of 10 m / m

  will be welded at the upper part to the corners 13.

  For the same purpose, to preserve the fabric to the stacking frame / frame, we add on each side to the angles 15 and 2, but in the lower part, four

  shims 19 and 19 bis of 10 m / m also welded.

  - Part 2 - DOUBLING THE PREVIOUS FRAMEWORK -

  It is a U-shaped tube whose sides 9 rest on the

  part 1 of the previous one of which it has the same width 60 cm overall.

  They are welded together in a few points.

  The foot of the U which constitutes the cross 10 is rectilinear and horizontal. Its two angles are also bent in 2 ter 90 and its total length is 1.20 m The two frames together receive on each side forming hangers 2 ... a trapezoid-shaped gusset 11, flat 40 x 5 m / m / with him an angle? positioned so that it can rest on the equivalent part of the bunk that will be found below the stack and also support that of above. These gussets contribute to reinforce this inclined base and also provide lateral guidance in the superposition of

multiple berths.-

  -Piece n 3 - DOUBLE HEADSET -

  Realized by a single tube which forms in the middle the cross

  12 welded to both ends of the tubes 1, it closes the frame and in con-

tit head.

  It is then bent downwards on either side of the frame so as to form with it as hypothenuse, a right triangle I3 / 14/15 whose angles will respectively be: - the 13 of 35 between the frame and the big side 16 - the 14 of 90 'on the ground between the sides 16 and 17

  - 15 of 55 between the small side and the tubes 1 and 9 of the frame.

  -4- It is welded to the frame 9 by a hanger facing it angle 15 so as to arrange between the vertical plane of the triangular base and the frame itself a space / games of 10 & 15 m / m essential for the passage feet of the nearest bunks successively stacked

on her.

  At the location of the hanger 14, one weld on each side two

  trapezoid-shaped horizontal gussets 18 upside down in flat of 50 x 5 m / m.

  These two plates will have two functions: - receive the axis 30 of lower articulation of the jack (Part 5) 1i - serve as a guide in the stack by receiving the hanger 14 of the berth

from below.

  It should be noted that the gussets 11 of the frame in 2 and I4 above are likely in practice to dispense in 2 and 15 wedges

  of 10 m / m 19 and 19 bis previously envisaged.

  This gives the piece 3 a side space in m / m of: 600 width of the frame + (2 x 10 to 15 side games) + (2 x 20 0 of the tubes of the head base) + (2 x 5 outer gussets) 18) interior 2C is a total of 670 & 680 m / m, width that must be found in the Dasse part of the trapezoidal foot leg Fig 5 to the hanger 4, for the harmony of the whole.

Exhibit 4 - ARTICULATED DOSSERET -

  Fig 2 plane - Fig 3 dotted profile - Fig 6 front raised.

  It consists of a U-shaped tube whose crosshead 21 curved at 13 bis forms two parallel sides 20. This tube has the

  same shape and width as part 2 - doubling frame 9 and 10 -

  but measuring only 0.80 m long, the mobile backrest is articulated on the piece II to about 1/3 of the total length: Frame and backsplash are

  symmetrically opposed and articulated at 22 with a hinge.

  In the extended position, it is superimposed on the tubes 1 of the initial frame, of which it is however kept spaced in height of 10 m / m

  by the offset against the elbows 8 and the size 8 bis in 13.

  Fig 3, dotted line, it can adopt different

  positions / elevations as a function of the extendable cylinder range & 25.

  _5 _ It has a cross 23 parallel to its top 21 to strengthen it and which can accommodate a foam pillow of about 56 cm x 30 x 5 thick, maintained at this location by the two walls

  32 front and 33 back fabric, which will wrap the backsplash.

  - Part No 5 - BACKSET CYLINDERS. Fig 7, like the other parts, they must be tubular, a 0 maximum 20 m / m due to the size, telescopic with a simple adjustment in various positions, provided with a compression lock:

  - either automatically by eccentric or gravitational brake.

  - Or mechanical as imagined Fig 7, by means of a pawl 50 attached to the top of the outer tube 51 and a serrated notch 52 on

the inner tube 51 bis.

  The jacks are articulated on two axes, at 30 with the bottom of the legs of the piece 3 and at 31 outside the backsplash, held in alignment by a wedge or a boss 31 bis that will catch the accumulated games: legs with respect to the frame (always 10 to 15 m / m) + the difference of diameters of the inner and outer tubes of the cylinder,

a few m / m.

  The choice of cylinders is not exhaustive, they must be protected from corrosion including sea air and abrasive aggression sand in particular; they will have to be waterproof

  or designed to be easily cleaned.

- Part n6 - ENTOILAGE.

  Fig 2 and 4 - the interlining which represents the relaxation surface 32 must be comfortable. It is, according to the INVENTION, made of a modern textile or a synthetic openwork likely to be cleaned

  easily and if possible on the frame itself.

  Its total width is about 100 cm finished.

  It generally consists of a scalloped band at three points on each side: - 1 Passages of the feet 3 and gussets I1l

  - 2 Joints 22 of the back splash and junctions 7 with the feet 17.

  - 3 Articulations of the cylinders on backrest 31 and boss 31 bis.

  At the rounded top of the backsplash and starting at 31, it will form

a very slim pocket.

  - 6 - The notches shall be rounded according to the shape of the obstacles to be crossed and solidly reinforced to extend in cut 37 whose edges are perpendicular to the fabric at passages 2 above designated and 45 at passages 1 and 3 to form at the foot a trapezium 38 in the extension of the canvas which will be returned under the crosspiece 10 of the frame. On the back of the backrest an identical trapezium 38 bis originating at the bottom of the pocket which is symmetrically opposite the first one.

being cut also at 45 '.

  The crenellated periphery of this envelope will be widely and securely hemmed 34, to receive generally-eyelets 35 distant from 15 to 25 cm distributed on all panels proportionally and once in place and folded 33 under the frame will leave a rectangular interval of approximately 0.30 m wide by 1.30 m long, intended for

  energetic lacing with traditional gimped elastics 39.

  The entire posterior surface of the furniture being thus

  completely green, the interlining 32 desirable is tense on the frame

and realized for its comfort.

  It should be noted that there was provided in the backsplash, between the crosspieces 21 and 23, a location for pillow. It will also find its place between the two walls of the pocket of the summit, to be then tight

  by the trapeze which follows the pocket and thanks to the lacing.

  As a completely optional option, the INVENTION proposes two

  add-ons for specific use cases.

  - 1 ') Fig 2 and 8 the first proposal is to provide the backrest in the middle of the cushion and near the top, a LUCARNE shaped Triangular Well 40 lined with the same textile through successively canvas and foam. The openings in both can be larger

  and round to simplify the realization and will simply be edged.

  Well filling will only be done on the cushion. through a removable cover by removing the cushion for

  cleaning more frequent and more rigorous.

  -7 - The ideal size of the isosceles triangle is 18 to 20 cm. It allows to introduce a part of the face downwards to obtain a ventral position perfectly comfortable from the point of view vertebrano-cervical - from the respiratory point of view and can read a book on the ground 35 cm, adequate distance. An absorbent and disposable paper specially designed in large numbers being introduced between canvas and cushion will protect the users

any promiscuity.

  - 2 ') Fig 9 the second proposal according to the same INVENTION, applies to the VEHICLE to ensure the recovery of berths which can very easily, given their lightness be dispersed by customers of

  care facilities or tenants on beaches and other solariums.

  Vehicle 46, specially designed for this purpose, has a geometry that is quite similar to the berth. and 18 he and 18 It benefits in particular centering gussets / and can receive superimposed a large number very firmly nested in each

  the others (example: as in the drawing, 20 pieces represent a

  1m high, about 100 Kgs, perfectly reasonable criteria).

  It is equipped with two standard wheels 40 cm 0 with solid tires of 80 m / m located outside the chassis, supported by a removable axle 48 on the part 46 bis of the chassis to position perfectly the center of gravity 49 according to the average load allowed by the attendant, who will be more or less at the front of the wheels, in the direction

  preconnected traction or conversely.

  To reduce possibly the size of the vehicle, it can accommodate the wheel train inside the chassis known as the berths, fully clear. But it will be to the detriment of lateral balance,

  Tires "super balloon" very low pressure adapts

  will also be studied to facilitate easier maneuvering in

tick and on soft sand.

  N.B. - For a better distinction in the numbering of drawings, we have adopted the symbol / 2 eg. to specify an angle that in most cases is realized curved and surrounded by a circle the 32 33 38 and

  38 bis which are surfaces to differentiate parts and locations.

  8 - The manufacture of this material, as envisaged in aluminum tubes 3005 - H 274 of 20 m / m of 0 and 1.5 of thickness, bent and welded, does not

  requires for a specialized professional, no particular tools n-

expensive investment.
