The invention relates to a chair with a deformable seat shell, which forms a seat part and a backrest, and a frame, wherein the seat part via a first pivot and the backrest are connected via a second pivot to the frame, wherein the pivot joints by a deforming the Seat shell allow conditional rotation of the seat part and the backrest relative to the frame.
Such a chair is out of the DE 10 2011 001 811 A1 known. The frame of the chair disclosed therein comprises a foot portion and a seat base pivotally connected to the foot portion about a vertical axis. The seat base is connected to the seat part near the front edge of the seat via a first pivot which allows rotation about an axis of rotation oriented in the vertical direction of the chair. Furthermore, a backrest support is provided which comprises two L-shaped struts. In each case one end of the struts is rotatably mounted on each one end of a torsion bar of the seat base. The thus defined axis of rotation extends in the transverse direction of the chair and intersects the aligned in the vertical direction of rotation of the first rotary joint. The other ends of the struts are connected via a ball joint off-center with the backrest.
The US 2,745,468 discloses a chair having a one-piece seat pan, wherein a seat portion of the seat pan is connected to a frame of the chair via a first hinge which allows rotation about an axis of rotation directed transversely of the chair. The frame comprises an L-shaped backrest support, a strut of which serves to support and guide a back part of the seat shell. The chair is primarily intended to allow a tilting function about the axis of rotation of the first pivot, wherein the back part is to be moved together with the seat part of the seat. This is made possible by a corresponding longitudinal axial movable guide in the region of the connection of the back part with the backrest support. This guide comprises a guide sleeve connected to the back part, which on the back part associated with the strut Backrest support is movably guided. In addition to this connection between the back and the backrest support but also allow a limited pivoting of the back part by the guide sleeve is rotatable with respect to the longitudinal axis of the strut.
Based on this state of the art, the invention has the object underlying to provide a chair that the mobility of the DE 10 2011 001 811 A1 has known chair, but it is cheaper to produce.
This object is achieved by means of a chair according to claim 1. Advantageous embodiments thereof are the subject of the further claims and will become apparent from the following description of the invention.
A generic chair with a (in the context of a proposed use) deformable seat shell, which forms a seat part and a backrest (preferably in one piece), and a frame, wherein the seat part via a first pivot and the backrest are connected via a second pivot to the frame wherein the hinges enable a rotation of the seat part and the backrest relative to the frame caused by a deformation of the seat shell, and wherein the second pivot joint is connected to the backrest centrally with respect to the transverse direction of the chair, according to the invention characterized in that a via the second hinge connected to the backrest backrest support of the frame is connected via a third pivot with a connected via the first pivot to the seat part seat base of the frame. In this case, the third pivot defines an aligned in the transverse direction of the chair axis of rotation.
In this case, the "transverse direction" of the chair means any direction extending from one side of the chair (in particular a projection of the chair into a vertically aligned plane adjacent to this side of the chair) towards the other side of the chair (in particular a projection of the chair into a vertically aligned plane adjacent to this other side of the chair).
The embodiment of the chair according to the invention thus provides an arrangement of the two pivot joints connecting the seat shell to the frame in the sagittal plane of a user of the chair. This makes it possible to achieve the desired mobility in conjunction with the deformable seat shell, wherein the number of parts required for the formation of the frame in comparison to that of the DE 10 2011 001 811 A1 known chair is reduced. In particular, instead of the two, a backrest support forming struts, in the chair according to the DE 10 2011 001 811 A1 are connected via two pivot joints with a seat base and the backrest, a one-piece backrest support can be used, which is connected via only a rotary joint, which may be preferably in the form of a ball joint, connected to the backrest. In addition, it can be provided that the backrest support also integrates the first pivot joint, via which the frame is connected to the seat part of the seat shell.
Furthermore, a tilt mobility for the chair is created by the third pivot, which is regularly perceived by users as comfortable. In particular, it may be provided that the third pivot joint is spaced in the longitudinal direction of the chair from the first pivot, thus not defined by the first pivot, at least one axis of rotation and defined by the third pivot, at least one axis of rotation does not intersect.
Such a tilt mobility is perceived as particularly comfortable when reclining is associated with at least slight extension of the body. Accordingly, in the chair according to the invention may preferably be provided that this is adjustable between at least an upright first position and a reclined second position, wherein an angle between the seat part and the backrest in the second position is greater than in the first position.
Such an angular change between the seat part and the backrest can be realized in a structurally simple manner by the backrest support L-shaped or arc-shaped, wherein a first leg of the L-shaped Backrest support or a first half of the arcuate seat back support via the third hinge to the seat base and a second leg of the L-shaped backrest support or a second half of the arcuate backrest support is connected via the second pivot to the backrest.
In order to permit as far as possible deformation of the seat shell, it can preferably be provided that the first hinge allows rotation about at least one (possibly only this one) aligned in the vertical direction of the chair first axis of rotation. Likewise, it can be provided that the second rotary joint permits rotation about at least one (possibly only this one) aligned in the longitudinal direction of the chair second axis of rotation.
Here, the "vertical direction" of the chair is understood to mean any direction that extends from an underside of the chair (in particular a projection of the chair into a horizontally oriented plane arranged below the chair) in the direction of an upper side of the chair (in particular a projection of the chair in FIG a plane horizontally oriented above the chair). Accordingly, the longitudinal direction of the chair is understood to mean any direction that extends from a rear side of the chair (in particular a projection of the chair into a vertically oriented plane behind the chair) in the direction of a front side of the chair (in particular a projection of the chair into a seat) Front of the chair vertically aligned plane) extends.
In a preferred embodiment of the chair according to the invention can be provided that the seat part is still connected via at least one bearing with the frame, wherein the bearing is designed such that this obstructs a rotation of the seat part about an aligned in the longitudinal direction of the chair axis. As a result, the seat shell is given stability in the region of the seat part, which hinders lateral tilting of the seat shell in the region of the seat front edge in the event of an off-center loading by the user. With appropriate positioning of the bearing, especially in the vicinity of the seat leading edge, this hinders also not the intended deformability of the seat shell in the context of the use of the chair.
The bearing can be functionally integrated into the first pivot. However, it can be advantageous if the bearing is formed separately from the first rotary joint and in particular is arranged at a distance therefrom in the transverse direction of the chair. Particularly preferably, at least two such bearings can be provided, which are arranged spaced on both sides of the first pivot bearing.
A structurally simple and functionally advantageous embodiment of the bearing or bearings can provide that two bearing parts, one of which is connected to the frame and the other with the seat shell, are mutually displaceable in a plane extending in the transverse direction and longitudinal direction of the chair.
In order to allow as far as possible deformation of the seat, it may further be provided in the chair according to the invention that the first hinge in the comprehensive half of the seat edge, preferably in the third or quarter of the seat leading edge and particularly preferably in the fifth seat covering the seat leading edge (each related on the extension of the seat part in the longitudinal direction of the chair) of the seat part is arranged.
The same purpose may be served if the second pivot is located above the body center of gravity of a (norm) user. In this case, the second rotary joint can be arranged in particular in the half of the backrest edge having the backrest (relative to the extent of the backrest in the vertical direction of the chair).
For example, "(standard) user" means the adult P95 percentile.
In order to avoid unfavorable deformation of the seat shell, in particular in the realization of a tilting mobility of the chair, it may furthermore be preferred for the first hinge to rotate the seat part relative to the chair corresponding portion of the frame about an aligned in the transverse direction of the chair axis of rotation and / or the second pivot allows rotation of the backrest relative to the corresponding portion of the frame about an aligned in the transverse direction of the chair axis of rotation.
It may be perceived as particularly comfortable when, at the time of leaning back of the backrest, the seat part, in particular the front edge of the seat part, is raised at the same time. Accordingly, it can preferably be provided that the frame is designed such that a rotation of the backrest support about the axis of rotation of the third pivot joint leads to a movement of the seat leading edge, possibly also of the first pivot, in the vertical direction of the chair.
This functionality of the chair can be structurally advantageously implemented when the seat part, in particular via the first pivot, is fixed to a cross member, wherein the cross member rotatably with a lever (in particular at one end of this lever) and the lever (in particular at its other end ) is rotatably connected to the seat base and wherein a rotational movement of the lever relative to the seat base is coupled via a rod with a rotational movement of the backrest support about the axis of rotation of the third pivot joint.
Again, to improve the comfort in the use of the chair, this may preferably be formed as a swivel chair, in which a connected via the first pivot to the seat part seat base of the frame is connected via a hinge with a foot part of the frame.
The seat of the chair may preferably be integrally formed, so that the seat part and the backrest (further preferably in one piece) merge into one another.
Alternatively, however, it can also be provided that the seat shell comprises a seat part and a backrest, which are designed as separate components, and a frame connecting the seat part and the backrest. The frame may preferably be arranged as centered with respect to the transverse direction of the chair, for example L-shaped or arcuate bar may be formed. In this case, it may further be preferred that the deformation of the seat shell is made possible or absorbed, in particular, by the frame. For example, an embodiment of the frame in the form of a (single or multilayer) leaf spring may be advantageous. Such an embodiment of the seat of the chair according to the invention makes it possible to form the seat part and the backrest as relatively rigid components, while the easily deformable frame ensures the deformability of the seat shell overall at relatively low forces.
Such a chair according to the invention can also be advantageously designed in such a way that the seat part in the longitudinal direction of the chair and / or the backrest in the vertical direction of the chair is / are slidably mounted on the frame. The displacement can be provided only temporarily after a release of a locking device. This allows the best possible adaptation of the seat to different body dimensions of users.
The invention will be explained in more detail with reference to embodiments shown in the drawings. In the drawings shows, in each case schematically:

a view according to the Fig. 10 with deformed seat shell;
a top view of a chair according to the Fig. 6 to 9 with undeformed seat in an upright position;
a view according to the Fig. 12 in a deformed seat and in a reclined position;
a side view of a chair according to the invention in a third embodiment in the upright position of the seat; and
a view according to the Fig. 14 in the reclined position of the seat.
The in the Fig. 1 to 5 represented, not included in the claims chair comprises a frame 1 and connected to the frame 1 seat 2.
The frame 1 is substantially rigid. This is thus designed so that it does not functionally deform in a proper use of the chair. The frame 1 may be integrally formed, for example, welded together pipes. It forms, for example, as shown, four feet, over which the chair is placed on a substrate.
The seat shell 2 is formed integrally, so that a section used as a seat part 3 merges into a section of the seat shell 2 used as the backrest 4. In this case, the seat shell 2 in one or more parts (in particular with a then preferably one-piece seat shell upper part and the seat shell upper part supporting frame) may be formed (see also FIGS. 14 and 15 ).
The seat is connected via two hinges 5, 6 with the frame 1. In this case, a first pivot 5 is arranged in the vicinity of the seat leading edge 7 of the seat shell 2. With respect to the transverse direction of the chair, the first pivot 5 is centered and thus positioned approximately in the sagittal plane of a user of the chair. The first rotary joint 5 makes it possible to rotate the portion of the seat shell 2 connected to this rotary joint 5, specifically essentially the entire seat part 3, relative to the corresponding section of the frame 1 (the seat base 8) about a first axis of rotation 9. This first axis of rotation 9 extends in the vertical direction of the chair. Specifically, this is approximately vertically aligned (standing on a horizontal surface chair). The first pivot 5 may be formed such that a pin 10 connected to the seat base 8 (or seat portion 3) is rotatably supported in a sleeve 11 connected to the seat portion 3 (or seat base 8).
A second pivot 6 connects the seat 2 in the region of the backrest 4 with a backrest support 12 of the frame 1. The second pivot 6 is centered with respect to the transverse direction of the chair and thus - as well as the first pivot 5 - approximately in the sagittal plane of a user of the chair. The second pivot 6 is designed as a ball joint. This thus allows rotation of the backrest 4 relative to the backrest support 12 about a plurality of axes, including at least one extending in the longitudinal direction of the chair second rotation axis thirteenth
The inventive storage of the seat 2 allows caused by a weight shift of a user deformation of the seat 2, in which this in the transition from the seat part 3 to the backrest 4 to one side is moved while the seat leading edge 7 and the backrest edge 14 are inclined towards the other side (see. Fig. 3 and 11 ).
The seat part 3 of the seat 2 is still connected via two bearings 15 to the frame 1. In each case a bearing 15 is arranged in the transverse direction of the chair spaced from the first pivot bearing 5. With regard to the longitudinal direction of the chair, the bearings 15 are in the height of the first pivot bearing 5 and the seat leading edge 7. The two bearings 15 are formed such that they support at least one load against the vertical direction, ie from top to bottom, ie prevent. This prevents twisting of the front portion of the seat part 3 about an axis oriented in the longitudinal direction of the chair, and consequently a tilting of a user together with the seat pan 2 to the side. The bearings 15 are designed such that a relative mobility of the seat part 3 to the frame 1 in the region of the bearings 15 in a plane which extends in the longitudinal and transverse directions of the chair, is possible (see. 4 and 5 such as FIGS. 12 and 13 ). As a result, the desired deformability of the seat shell 2 is not hindered by the bearings 15. This mobility of the bearing 15 can be achieved by each two bearing parts slidably rest on each other and thereby form a corresponding slide bearing. In this case, a bearing part connected to the frame 1 or formed by this and the other bearing part connected to the seat part 3 of the seat shell 2 or be formed by this.
If the bearings 15 also each have a load in the vertical direction, i. from bottom to top, it can be provided that one of the bearing parts of each bearing 15 forms a slot through which extends a guide pin of the other bearing part, wherein the edge of the slot at least one side, preferably two-sided in one of the guide pin in his Sheath trained groove engages.
The in the 6 and 7 and 10 to 13 illustrated inventive chair differs from that in the Fig. 1 to 5 represented chair on the one hand by the integration of a tilt mobility for the seat shell 2 Backrest support 12 of the frame 1 structurally separated from the seat base 8 of the frame 1 and rotatably connected to the seat base 8 via a third pivot 16 about a third axis of rotation 17 extending in the transverse direction of the chair. The third axis of rotation 17 in this case runs in the vicinity of the first rotary joint 5. In particular, it may be provided that the third axis of rotation 17 intersects the first axis of rotation 9 extending in the vertical direction and formed by the first rotary joint 5.
The backrest support 12 is L-shaped, wherein the free end of the one leg is connected via the second pivot 6 with the backrest 4 of the seat shell 2 and the free end of the other leg via the third pivot 16 with the seat base 8. However, the backrest support 12 may just as well also be arcuate.
In order not to interfere with the inclination mobility of the seat pan 2, the first pivot 5 and the second pivot 6 are formed so that this rotation of the corresponding portion of the seat 2 relative to the corresponding portion of the frame 1 in each case also aligned about a transversely of the chair , Fourth axis of rotation 18 and fifth axis of rotation 19 allow. This rotation results in the second pivot 6 of its configuration as a ball joint. For the first pivot 5, however, this rotation results from the deformability of the seat, as shown in the 6 and 7 is shown. But it is also possible, the first rotary joint 5 as a ball joint or otherwise with two about the respective axes of rotation 9, 18 movably interconnected hinge parts form. In particular, in one embodiment of the first rotary joint 5, in which this one with the seat base 8 (or the seat part 3 of the seat 2) connected pin 10 which is rotatably mounted in a with the seat part 3 (or the seat base 8) connected sleeve 11 , Is also provided that the pin 10 (or the sleeve 11) is connected to a cross member, at the end of which also engages the corresponding end of the L-shaped backrest support 12. In this case, the cross member may be rotatably mounted in the seat base 8, while the backrest support 12 and / or the pin 10 (or the sleeve 11) can firmly engage the cross member. The one in the seat base 8 rotatably mounted cross member forms in this case, the third pivot 16 and a part of the first pivot 5 from. It is also possible that the cross member is firmly integrated into the seat base 8, while the backrest support 12 and the pin 10 (or the sleeve 11) are rotatably attached thereto.
Due to the distance between the third axis of rotation 17 and the fourth axis of rotation 18 extending in the transverse direction of the chair, the (direct) distance between the fourth axis of rotation 18 and the second pivot point 6 changes when the seat pan 2 tilts back leads to a deformation of the seat shell 2, in which an angle formed between the seat part 3 and the backrest 4 angle α increases (α 1 <α 2 ).
The in the 6 and 7 and 10 to 13 illustrated chair is also designed as a swivel chair. For this purpose, the seat base 8 of the frame 1 via a fourth pivot 20 about a extending in the vertical direction of the chair, specifically approximately vertically aligned sixth axis of rotation 21 is rotatably connected to a foot part 22 of the frame 1 shown only partially.
The in the in the 8 and 9 as well as 10 to 13 illustrated chair differs from that in the 6 and 7 and 10 to 13 illustrated chair, in particular by an additional kinematics, which ensures that a tilting back of the seat 2 with a lifting (in the vertical direction) of the first pivot 5 and thus the seat leading edge 7 is accompanied.
For this purpose, the third rotary joint 16, via which the backrest support 12 is connected to the seat base 8, is set back. In addition, at the same end as the third rotary joint 16, two (each one on each side of the backrest support 12) rods 23 are rotatably connected to the backrest support 12 about a seventh axis of rotation 24. In this case, the seventh axis of rotation 24 is arranged at a distance from the third axis of rotation 17 formed by the third pivot bearing 16.
The rods 23 extend to one end of a respective lever 25 with which they are rotatably connected about an eighth axis of rotation 26 extending in the transverse direction of the chair. The respective other end of the lever 25 is rotatably connected to the seat base 8 about a ninth axis of rotation 27 extending in the transverse direction of the chair. Thus, there is also a distance between the eighth axis of rotation 26 and the ninth axis of rotation 27. Here, the ninth axis of rotation 27 is positioned approximately as the third axis of rotation 17 in the chair according to the 6 and 7 ,
The first pivot 5 is connected via a cross member with the two rods 23 in the vicinity of the eighth axis of rotation. However, this can also be connected to the two levers 25, again in the vicinity of the eighth axis of rotation. By this connection of the first rotary joint 5 in conjunction with the distances formed between the third axis of rotation 17 and the seventh axis of rotation 24 on the one hand and the eighth axis of rotation 26 and the ninth axis of rotation 27 on the other hand, the desired results in a tilt adjustment of the seat 2 coupled height adjustment of the first pivot bearing 5 and thus the seat leading edge. 7
Also with the chair according to the 8 and 9 A tilting back of the seat 2 leads to an enlargement of an angle α (α 1 <α 2 ) formed between the seat part and the backrest.
The FIGS. 14 and 15 show an embodiment of a chair according to the invention, which differs from that of the 8 and 9 differs in that the seat shell 2 is not integral but a plurality of parts. This comprises a seat part 3 and a backrest 4, which are formed as separate and spaced-apart components, which are interconnected via a frame. The frame is essentially that component of the seat 2, which allows the deformability of the seat 2. The frame is formed as a centrally disposed with respect to the transverse direction of the chair guide rail on which the seat part 3 and the backrest 4 are guided longitudinally displaceable. By such a shift and the possibility of the seat part 3 and the backrest 4 in different displacement positions by a (not shown) positively or to determine positively locking device allows an advantageous adaptation of the chair to differing body dimensions of users.
