Definitions

  • the invention relates to multi-purpose furniture according to the preamble of the main claim.
  • a piece of furniture which consists of a rectangular seat with two longitudinal and two transverse sides and four legs which are firmly connected to the seat at the corners thereof and extend from the seat at right angles to it.
  • This piece of furniture is used as a bench or stool.
  • a free-standing household manager and a high chair are required in most households.
  • the purchase of a bench, a household manager and a child seat causes high costs and leads to considerable space problems, especially in small apartments.
  • the invention has for its object to provide as simple to manufacture, stable and versatile multi-purpose furniture.
  • the multi-purpose piece of furniture When the multi-purpose piece of furniture is set up with rungs resting on the floor, it can be used as a bench or stool. If the multi-purpose piece of furniture is set up in such a way that the legs lying opposite the end face rest on the floor, it can be used as a household manager. In this case, the wall serves as the first step of the household manager and the end face as the second, upper step of the household manager.
  • the multi-purpose furniture is particularly stable as a household manager. If you place the multi-purpose furniture in such a way that its front surface rests on the floor, you get a child seat. In this position, the wall serves as a seat, the seat as a backrest and the legs opposite the end face as armrests.
  • the multi-purpose piece of furniture thus replaces several pieces of furniture that are needed in almost every household and is characterized by its particularly simple and stable construction.
  • the legs extend from the rungs to beyond the seat.
  • a secure support of an upholstered pad that can be placed on the seat surface is ensured.
  • the extension of the legs opposite the end face beyond the seating area contributes to an increased stability of the household manager.
  • the legs which are arranged on the transverse side opposite the end face, are connected to one another at their ends remote from the rungs by a strut.
  • the strut carries an additional Ver - stiffening of the multi-purpose furniture with and serves as a handle by which the multi-purpose furniture can be rotated in different positions.
  • the end face extends in the direction of the legs substantially as far from the seat to the rungs as from the seat in the opposite direction that the end face on the ge rungs opposite end with the ends of the legs attached to it and that the end face extends less far from the rungs beyond the seat than the opposite legs extend from the rungs beyond the seat.
  • the arrangement of the end face makes it particularly easy to climb the multi-purpose furniture when used as a household manager.
  • the smooth closure of the edge of the end face with the ends of the legs contributes to safe handling of the multi-purpose piece of furniture, since protruding corners are thereby avoided.
  • the multi-purpose piece of furniture in use as a household ladder has a very high level of stability, since it gives the user the It is not possible for the head of household to shift his weight outside the legs forming the footprint of the head of household, so that the head of household cannot tip over.
  • the multi-purpose piece of furniture consists of a scissor grille held at one end on the end face or on the strut or on a part which can be fixed relative to the seat surface by means of two pivot bearings and which is connected to a clothes hanger at its other end by means of two further pivot bearings a locking device that allows the scissor grid to be locked in its extended position.
  • the multi-purpose furniture can be used as a clothes rack in the position that it also occupies as a bench, with the scissor grid pulled out and the locking device locked.
  • a handle opening which is provided in the end face.
  • the handle opening makes it easier to carry the piece of furniture and to turn the multi-purpose piece of furniture into its various positions of use.
  • an upholstery pad is provided in the size of the seat, which consists of two upholstery parts of essentially the same size and a fabric hinge connecting the upholstery parts.
  • the cushion cover serves as cushioning for the seat.
  • the one cushion part is pivoted around the fabric hinge against the other cushion part, so that the two cushion parts form a right angle with one another.
  • the upholstery pad serves to upholster the multi-purpose furniture in its position as a child seat.
  • the cushion cover can be locked relative to the multipurpose furniture, so that the cushion cover cannot fall off the multipurpose furniture both when used as a bench seat and when used as a child seat or household manager.
  • a wall 8 which is fixedly connected to the seat surface 1 and the rungs 6, 7, is parallel to the transverse sides 11, 12 of the seat surface 1 and perpendicular to the seat surface 1, being spaced from the two transverse sides 11, 12 essentially the same distance .
  • An end face 13 is fastened to one of the two transverse sides 12, 13 of the seat surface 1 and to the legs 4, 5 arranged on this transverse side 12. The end face has a smaller dimension in the direction of the legs 4, 5 than the length of the legs 4, 5.
  • the legs 2, 3, 4, 5 extend from the rungs 6, 7 to beyond the seat 1.
  • the legs 2, 3 opposite the end face 13 are connected to one another at their ends remote from the rungs 6, 7 by a strut 14.
  • the strut 14 is designed as a rotationally symmetrical rotating part and ends with the ends of the legs 2, 3 attached to it.
  • the end face 13 extends in the direction of the legs 4, 5 substantially as far from the seat 1 to the rungs 6, 7 as from the seat 1 in the opposite direction. It closes at its end opposite the rungs 6, 7 with the ends of the legs 4, 5 attached to it. It extends less far from the rungs 6, 7 beyond the seat 1 than the legs 2, 3 opposite it extend from the rungs 6, 7 away beyond the seat.
  • both the wall 8 and the end face 13 are in a vertical position Projection onto the legs 2, 3 within the standing plane formed by the legs 2, 3.
  • the offset arrangement of the end face 13 relative to the wall 8 makes it particularly easy to climb the multi-purpose piece of furniture in use as a household manager.
  • FIG. 3 shows a further development of the multipurpose furniture shown in FIGS. 1 and 2.
  • the same parts are provided with the same reference numerals and therefore do not have to be explained again.
  • a part is fixed in recesses in the seat 1, on which a scissor grid 15 is held at one end by means of two pivot bearings 17, 18.
  • the scissor grid 15 is connected by means of two other pivot bearings 19, 20 to a clothes hanger 16 which also has an opening.
  • the scissor lattice consists, in a known manner, of rod-like elements which are pivotally connected to one another.
  • the two outer elements 21, 22 of the scissor grid 15 snap together at their ends, so that the scissor grid is locked in this position. In this position, the clothes holder formed by the scissor grid 15 and the clothes hanger 16 can be loaded with the vertical weight of clothes which are hung on the clothes hanger 16.
  • two handle openings 23 are provided in the end face 13.
  • the cushion pad 24 shown in Fig. 4 in the size of the seat 1 consists of two equal sizes Upholstery parts 25, 26 which are connected to one another by a fabric hinge 27.
  • the upholstery parts consist of foam cushions, which are bordered by fabric covers.
  • To upholster the multi-purpose piece of furniture as a child seat the upholstery part 25, which is positioned at right angles to the upholstery part 26, is used to upholster the backrest, while the upholstery part 26 is used to upholster the wall 8 used as the seat surface.
  • the cushion pad 24 is connected to the multi-purpose furniture by a locking device.
  • the latching body of the latching device is designed as a rolled-up fabric band and can be latched with an opening in the end face 13.
  • the legs 2, 5; 3, 4 and rungs 6, 7 can be replaced by one-piece, U-shaped metal brackets.
  • the rungs 6, 7 can be chosen so wide that they extend to the seat 1.
  • the seat surface 1 can also be designed as a slatted frame. It is also possible to manufacture the furniture in one piece from plastic.
