  • the armrest has an advantageous double function on by either supporting an arm or is provided as a footrest.
  • a major advantage The solution according to the invention is therefore that the armrest has a meaningful function in every position. This is a significant difference from the prior art, in which the stool in an unneeded rest position is still storage space needed.
  • the armrest according to the invention With a double function, the seating is for both Sofas and armchairs as well as for other types of seating furniture Suitable for chairs or benches.
  • the aesthetic design of the The respective seating furniture is not dependent on the arrangement a footrest so that there is greater design freedom can be achieved for the seating furniture according to the invention.
  • Additional Functional parts are by the invention Avoided solution by using the armrest in a simple manner has dual function described.
  • the agility of the Armrest by means of the kinematic arrangement can be varied be designed.
  • the armrest can move over multiple levels in the footrest position or in the armrest position be moved. Swiveling operations can be provided for themselves or combined with appropriate lifting or lowering movements be.
  • a tilting movement of the Armrest, however, also with additional movement functions can be combined.
  • Mechanical, curved guideways may be provided, along which the armrest guided in this guideway is movable.
  • the only thing that is essential is to overcome the height difference relative to the seat between the raised armrest position and the at least slightly lowered footrest position.
  • For moving the armrest into the armrest position and the footrest position can also provide lever mechanisms be.
  • the increased armrest position can be caused by a Inclination of the armrest or at least the top of the Armrest can be achieved in the armrest position without necessarily the entire armrest is shifted accordingly must become.
  • With an eccentric armrest bearing in connection with a trapezoidal cross section of the armrest or a different angled arrangement of the Levels of the top and bottom of the armrest can by simply tilting the desired height difference can be achieved in one of the end positions inclined plane of one side as armrest and in in the other position, the flat plane of the opposite Side forms the footrest.
  • both armrests are advantageous according to the invention movable. In the footrest positions of both armrests there may be a gap between the two armrests, which is an easy get up from the seat of the sofa made possible.
  • the base frame can be one or more parts be executed and represents the rigid and load-bearing unit of the seating furniture.
  • the tilt axis relative to the seat is so spatially aligned that a bottom the armrest in the armrest position a top in the footrest position.
  • the situation corresponds the tilt axis in space at least roughly the position of a geometric one Axis, which is divided by a bisector between each the orientations of the armrest in the two end positions both in a top view of the seating furniture as well is formed in a front view.
  • the armrest can also be tilted by a on the seating seated person in the desired end position be tilted because the path of movement of the armrest on the Sitting position passes. This allows an extremely simple one and quick operation of the armrest.
  • the tilt mechanism a single tilt joint on that in a front that Armrest facing corner area of the seat positioned is. This is a particularly simple and reliable Design that requires little construction.
  • the tilt joint has at least one internal stop for the armrest position and / or the footrest position. This creates the risk of injury avoided when the armrest is tilted.
  • only one stop can be used for the footrest position or in addition a second stop for the Armrest position may be provided.
  • the tilt joint has two pivotable hinged parts on the base frame on the one hand and on the armrest on the other are arranged, the one rocker joint part overlaps another tilt joint part in the form of a fork or ball head.
  • the one articulated part through the other tilt joint part is a low-injury Tilt joint created with internal storage.
  • the outer contour of the other articulated joint part overlapping the articulated joint part designed concentric to the tilt axis in the form of spherical sections. This can cause dangerous crushing movements of the outer surface this rocker joint part reliably during a tilting movement be avoided.
  • the armrest has a support frame with cushion padding, with which the armrest-side tilt joint part is rigidly connected is.
  • This support frame enables large-scale design the armrest without the supporting functions in both End positions are impaired.
  • the support frame at least one unilateral articulation. This is particularly advantageous if the armrest is in the armrest position over an existing, base frame-fixed Armrest section is leaned, which is also already opposite the seat is raised. This allows the armrest by bending accordingly to achieve a curved Shape to the pad in the form of the armrest section to adjust. Large armrests can also be provided be without being bulky in aesthetic terms To give impression, because these armrests at least an articulated joint can be bent accordingly. The one-sided active function of the articulated joint ensures that the support frame in the foot support position the desired stiff support function takes over without kinking downwards.
  • the armrest is included dimensioned the support frame as a mattress pad.
  • the armrest can be attached to the seat of the seating furniture in this way be adjusted that in the armrest position lengthened lying area, which is at least slightly rises diagonally.
  • Armrest created another additional function.
  • a sofa 1 according to FIGS. 1 and 2 has an unspecified one Base frame in the form of a wooden or metal frame that is provided with feet.
  • the base frame is in a known manner with serving as backrests Back upholstery 2 as well as serving as seats Seat upholstery 3 provided.
  • the seat upholstery 3 go to the opposite sides in a diagonally rising Armrest section 4, on each of which additional armrest 5 is stored. Place both armrests 5 parts separate from the base frame.
  • Each armrest 5 is designed and has a relatively large area a rectangular support frame 9 on (Fig. 2) with a not specified padding and a cover is, so that the entire armrest 5 as a large area Represents pillow.
  • Each armrest 5 is by means of a tilt joint 6 tiltable on the base frame about a tilt axis K. stored.
  • the tilting mobility of each armrest 5 is determined by limited two end positions, namely by an armrest position, those shown in Fig. 1 with solid lines is, as well as a footrest position, which is shown in FIG Lines is shown.
  • the shift of the armrest 5 between the armrest position and the footrest position basically represents a swivel movement.
  • the swivel movement takes place about the tilt axis K in the form of a tilting movement.
