Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a stackable Napoleon III style chair.
  • a pure Napoleon III style chair as it appeared around 1875, has legs of relatively fine section.
  • the front feet are substantially vertical and the rear feet are curved inward, so that the distance between the front feet at the seat is greater than the distance between the rear feet.
  • the lower end of the front legs is flared forward and outward while the lower end of the rear legs is flared rearward and possibly outward.
  • the lateral edges of the seat have a slight convexity on the outside.
  • the feet are connected two by two by bars which are essential for the solidity of the chair since a large part of the efforts which it is brought to undergo is concentrated on them.
  • Figures 1 and 2 show respectively from the front and in section along II-II of Figure 1 such a chair.
  • the Napoleon III style chair is currently the subject of a large and growing market, but in practice poses a number of problems as to its use.
  • the existing chairs include fixed slabs, which prevents the color of the slabs of the chairs from being quickly and easily adapted to the decoration of the place where they are placed.
  • This type of chair has the disadvantages of clearly deviating from the classic Napoleon III style and of being heavy and unsightly due to the increase in the section of the legs.
  • the coating of the wafer can, in the long run, be deteriorated by the friction of the feet.
  • FR 624 642 and GB 845 582 describe stackable chairs but which are not in the Napoleon III style, the first of these documents describing chairs without bars and whose seats include lateral clearances for the passage of the feet of stacked chairs, while the second document describes a Wilson style chair, that is to say with rear legs fixed below the seat and bars not located on the passage of the legs of the stacked chairs.
  • the present invention aims to remedy these drawbacks by providing a stackable chair which respects the classic Napoleon III style, which is aesthetic and light, which does not deteriorate in use and which is easy to maintain and quickly adaptable to the decoration. of the place where it is placed.
  • the concave curvature of the lateral edges of the seat of a chair allows the passage of the rear legs of another chair, which is stacked on either side of the aforementioned seat, passage made possible by the fact that the rear legs are not bent inward.
  • the offset of the side bars does not hinder this passage.
  • the flared shape of the rear legs and the distance separating their inner wall at the level of the side bars allows the engagement of the chair which is stacked until its side bars come into contact with the covering of the seat cushion of the lower chair.
  • the side bars ensure perfect stabilization of the stacked chair and have a large bearing surface on the covering of the pad of the lower chair, which, added to the non-aggressive profile of the bars resulting from their circular shape in cross section, prevents deterioration of this coating, even in the case of stacking several chairs.
  • the wafer is still preferably removable in order to eliminate any risk of marking of its coating, and the bars may include pellets of elastic material at their points of contact with the seat, in order to protect the paint from the latter.
  • the removability of the pancake also makes it possible to simplify the maintenance of the chair and to adapt it easily and quickly to the decoration of the place in which it is located, by interchanging pancakes whose coverings differ.
  • the distance separating the interior walls of the rear legs at the level of the lateral bars is only very slightly greater than the width of the seat at the rear of the chair and in the vicinity of the rear legs, so that, after stacking, the seat of the lower chair is tightly engaged between the abovementioned interior walls of the rear legs of the stacked chair and with friction, in order to generate a "self-locking" effect of the chairs stacked on top of each other .
  • the interior walls of the rear legs may include pads made of elastic material in order to preserve the paint on the chairs.
  • the metal lateral bars are welded to an equally metallic rear bar, but, preferably, the lateral and rear bars are constituted by a single U-shaped piece, each branch of which constitutes a lateral bar and the central part of which constitutes the rear bar, each of the branches of the U being fixed by its free end to one of the front legs of the chair and by its other end, to the corresponding rear leg.
  • the assembly of the bars guarantees the solidity of the chair.
  • the rear bar helps to increase the support surface of the stacked chair and to stabilize it on the lower chair.
  • the figures represent from different angles one or more chairs 2 essentially of wood, which, in accordance with the pure Napoleon III style, include legs 3 and 4 of relatively fine section.
  • the lower end of the front legs 3 is flared forward and outward while the rear legs 4 are bent backward.
  • the distance between feet 3 is greater than that between feet 4.
  • legs 3 and 4 are connected by front 5, rear 6 and lateral 7 bars.
  • Each chair 2 comprises a seat 10, the lateral edges 10a of which comprise a curvature 11 of convex shape from the front of the chair 2, which reverses at about mid-length to present, up to the rear of the chair 2, a curvature 12 of concave shape.
  • the rear ends of the side bars 7 are offset inwards beyond the vertical of the side edges 10a of the seat 10.
  • the bars 7 are metallic and welded to the bar 6, also metallic.
  • the feet 4 are not curved inward but gradually flare outward.
  • the distance D1 separating their inner wall at the level of the bars 6 and 7 is slightly greater than the width L1 of the seat 10, at the rear of the chair 2 and near the feet 4.
  • the wafer 15 is removable relative to the chair 2. When it is in place on the latter, it is simply fitted into the seat 10 and fixed to it by means of complementary self-gripping strips of the "Velcro" type.
  • the chairs 2 thus shaped can be stacked as shown in Figure 5.
  • the curvature 12 of the seat 10 of a chair 2 and the offset of the rear ends of the bars 7 allows the passage of the legs 4 of another chair 2 that is stacked on it, this passage being made possible by the fact that the feet 4 are not curved inward.
  • the bars 6 and 7 come into contact with the seat 10, which makes it possible to stabilize the stacked chair 2, and have a large bearing surface on it, thus avoiding damaging its paint.
  • the wafer 15 has been previously removed, and any risk of its coating being marked by the bars 6 and 7 is eliminated.
  • the distance D1 slightly greater than the width L1 mentioned above, allows a self-locking effect of stacked chairs, the seat 10 of the lower chair 2 being engaged closely between the above-mentioned interior walls and with friction.
  • Figure 6 shows an advantageous way of making the bars of the chair.
  • the side bars 7 and rear 6 are formed using a single piece 20 in the shape of a U, obtained by bending and bending a metal bar, each branch of which constitutes a side bar 7 and the central part of which forms the rear bar 6.
  • Tapped bores 21 are provided in the part 20 to receive screws 22 allowing it to be fixed to the chair 2.
  • each of the free ends of the branches of the U that the part 20 forms is engaged in a bore formed in the front leg 3.
  • the threaded bore 21 is coaxial with a bore made in the leg 3 for the passage of the screw 22.
  • the screw 22 is then put in place to carry out the assembly.
  • each of the branches of the U is fixed to one of the rear legs 4, the bore 21 being coaxial with a bore made in the rear leg 4 for the engagement of the screw 22.
