Definitions

• the present invention relates to a new type of relaxation furniture, in particular having a multitude of positions of use.
• the present invention overcomes these drawbacks. It offers a relaxation furniture with a flexible seat and back, presenting a plurality of positions of use.
• This piece of furniture is characterized in that the backrest is movable in translation along the seat and self-locking on this seat.
• the invention is characterized in that by the translational mobility of the backrest along the seat, the piece of furniture according to the invention can serve both as a chair, as a seat, as a relaxation chair and even in bed when the backrest is in the extreme position.
• the piece of furniture according to the invention can serve both as a chair, as a seat, as a relaxation chair and even in bed when the backrest is in the extreme position.
• the seat and the backrest comprise a tubular frame associated with a canvas by an elastic lacing, and the tubular frame of the backrest slides along the tubular frame of the seat;
• the tubular frame of the backrest has the general shape of a U, the bottom of each of the uprights has two stops orthogonal to said upright, directed towards the interior of the frame in the plane of the canvas, these two stops being arranged on either side of the upright and spaced a distance greater than the diameter of the tube forming the frame of the seat;
• the seat frame is slightly inclined with respect to the horizontal and the internal face of the backrest placed in the vicinity of the upper end of the seat is arranged in alignment with the seat, to form thus a bed.
• the present invention also relates to a multi-position relaxation furniture comprising a flexible seat and back, and which is characterized: - in that the back is movable in translation along the seat and is self-locking on this seat;
• the seat and the backrest comprise a tubular frame associated with a canvas by an elastic lacing;
• the tubular frame of the backrest generally U-shaped, slides along the tubular frame of the seat;
• each of the uprights of the backrest frame has two stops orthogonal to said amount, directed towards the inside of the frame, in the plane of the fabric, the two stops being arranged on either side of said upright and spaced apart by a distance greater than the diameter of the tube forming the frame of the seat;
• Figure 1 is a summary perspective view of three quarters of a relaxation furniture according to one invention.
• Figure 2 is also a perspective view som ⁇ mayor but in another position of the same piece of furniture.
• FIG. 3 is a perspective view schematically showing the method of fixing the stops on the tube forming the frame of the backrest.
• Figure 4 is a partial side view représen ⁇ as the two extreme positions that can take the dos ⁇ sier relative to the seat.
• the multi-position relaxation furniture consists of two essential parts, namely: - the seat (1) and the backrest (2).
• the seat consists of a metallic tubular frame (3) of generally inclined shape, associated in known manner with a fabric (4) by means of an elastic lacing (10).
• the frame (3) of the seat (1) is bent at each of its ends to form two supports (5) and (6) provided with stabilizers (7), such as rings clipped in suitable plastic material. .As already said, this seat is slightly inclined with respect to the horizontal.
• the backrest (2) consists of a metallic tubular frame (8) associated with a canvas (9) by elastic lacing (14), this frame (8) having the general shape of a U, of which the branches (15,16) straddle the frame (3) of the seat (1).
• the frame (8) of the backrest (2) cooperates with the frame (3) of the seat (1) by means of each of the two uprights (15, 16) of the tubular metallic frame (8) at their base. lower and this, by means of stops (11) and (12).
• Each pair of stops (11, 12) is perpendicular to the amount considered (15,16) of the tubular frame (8), and is directed towards the inside of this frame (8) and this, in the plane of the fabric (9 ).
• these stops (11,12) are arranged on either side of said upright (15) - and at a distance greater than the diameter of the tube forming the frame (3) of the seat (1).
• the frames (3,8) are produced in a lacquered tube of thirty millimeters very in diameter.
• the stops (11,12) are made in two lacquered tubes of twenty millimeters in diameter and seventy millimeters long, welded on either side of the amount (15,16) considered, and are spaced sixty - ten millimeters (from center to center).
• the stops (11) and (12) are covered with a non-slip protective material (13), advantageously PVC or polyethylene. This material (13) is intended to allow the adhesion of the stops on the frame (3) of the seat (1) when the backrest (2) is in a desired position.
• each upright (15, 16) between the stops (11,12) comprises a ring clipped and glued in plastic material (not shown), directed towards the inside of the frame (8).
• the multi-position relaxation furniture allows use both in a chair and in a chair. relaxation chair, or even in bed, the adjustment being a function of the translational movement of the frame ( 2 ) along the seat (1). In addition, this movement is very simple and within the reach of any user.
