Definitions

  • the invention relates to a synchronous office chair according to claim 1.
  • a synchronous office chair is commonly referred to a chair in which a seat part and a backrest part can perform coupled movements.
  • such an office chair can be designed so that the inclination of the backrest part is coupled with a smaller inclination of the seat surface part.
  • the object of the invention is to provide an improved synchronous office chair, in which the undesirable "pull-out" effect is largely avoided.
  • the synchronous movement i. the positively driven relative movement of seat support and back part is achieved by the leadership of the roller bearings in the curved paths.
  • the disclosed arrangement of the roller bearings and the cam tracks causes the instantaneous pivot point of the tilting movement of the back part about the virtual axis to be essentially always approximately the same distance above the rear central part of the seat carrier.
  • the improved synchronous mechanism can also be well combined with a device for slowing down the synchronous movement - namely in the form of a bias voltage.
  • the goal is to achieve an adjustable cushioning of the seat support and the back part, which is optimally suitable and adjustable for very light as well as for very heavy people, and also has a very high reliability and durability.
  • leaf springs made of a glass fiber plastic composite material with unidirectionally directed glass fibers provide the necessary strength values and in particular the desired service life.
  • Other materials, such as steel springs and the like, on the other hand, tend to break fatigue much more quickly and, moreover, can not usually be used for the entire range of applications from very light to very heavy Persons are suitably dimensioned.
  • the entire available path on the toothed segment can be utilized.
  • the user can therefore, for example by means of a push button on a cable, solve the grid lever of the stop disc and tilt the synchronous office chair in any tilt position (within the entire possible range of synchronous movement) to the rear to pick a new stop position.
  • a push button on a cable solves the grid lever of the stop disc and tilt the synchronous office chair in any tilt position (within the entire possible range of synchronous movement) to the rear to pick a new stop position.
  • FIG. 1 shows a schematic side view of a synchronous office chair with a support 1, a seat support 2 and a back part 3 at a Wegneckn Trent of 0 °.
  • Two of these three “main parts”, namely the seat support 2 and the back part 3 are movable in such a way that a synchronous movement is created.
  • FIG. 1 (as well as FIG. 2) serve primarily to clarify the basic arrangement of the main parts, the carrier 1, the seat carrier 2 and the back part 3 are also in spatial representations for the purpose of illustrating their shape in FIGS. 3-5 shown.
  • the carrier 1 is fixedly connected to a support column (not shown).
  • the support column can be mounted in a manner customary for office chairs on an office chair foot part.
  • the seat support 2 is articulated on a tilting axis 4.
  • the seat support 2 has a rearwardly and upwardly toward the back part 3 extending horn 5.
  • Seat support 2 and horn 5 are firmly connected.
  • the back part 3 has a back bracket 6 extending downwards and toward the direction of the seat support 2.
  • Back part 3 and back bar 6 are also firmly connected.
  • the back bar 6 of the back part 3 engages in a space between the carrier 1 and the seat support 2, and the horn 5 of the seat support 2 engages in the back strap 6 a.
  • the back yoke 6 has a first curved track 7, a second curved track 8, and a third curved track 9.
  • the curved paths 7, 8, 9 are all approximately circular-arc-like and concave from the point of view of a viewer standing in front of and above the synchronous office chair.
  • the second and third curved paths 8, 9 are brought together so closely from a lateral view (as shown here) that there is an overlap.
  • a second roller bearing 11 is mounted, which engages in the second curved path 8 of the back yoke 6 and is guided in the synchronous movement of the office chair in the second curved path 8.
  • a third roller bearing 12 is mounted, which engages in the third curved path 9 of the back bracket 6 and is guided in the synchronous movement of the office chair in the third curved path 9.
  • FIG. 3 shows, for the sake of clarity, a three-dimensional view of the carrier according to FIG. 1, in the view from above and behind. Particularly clearly visible here is the third roller bearing 12th
  • the positioning device 24 for the support 22 on the support surface 23 may be configured in various ways, but advantageously it is adjustable via a bevel gear 27 whose drive axis is arranged coaxially to the tilting axis 4.
  • FIG. 7 shows, for the purpose of further clarification, an exemption of the elements of the pretension. Shown here is a bias with two parallel leaf springs 20, wherein the support means for the leaf springs 20 are formed here as a substantially cylindrical, slidable supports 22, and wherein the two supports 22 together by means of a shaft 28 and a threaded spindle 29 via the bevel gear 27th on the support surface 23 (see Fig. 6) can be slidably positioned.
  • rolling supports could also be provided.
  • FIG. 9 shows a schematic side view of the carrier 1 and of the seat carrier 2 with the basic arrangement of the elements of the tilt stop.
  • the most important elements of the inclination stop include a toothed segment 40 attached to the carrier 1 and a tilting mechanism holder 41 attached to the seat carrier 2.
  • the tilting mechanism holder 41 in turn essentially contains a toothed wheel 42, a stop disc 43 and a ratchet lever 44 Tilting axis 4 moves the gear 42 on the sector gear 40 a certain way - here, of course, a circular arc segment - from.
  • this path, or the circular arc segment is approximately 11 ° (angle degree) at a maximum when the inclination stop is fully released (deactivated).
  • the inclination of the seat support 2 (not shown here) has a tilt angle of 0 ° (inclination about the tilting axis 4).
  • the tilt stop is activated because the locking cam 50 of the grid lever 44 engages in the ratchet teeth 47 of the stop plate 43 and therefore prevents rotation of the stop plate 43. If a person sat down on the synchronous office chair, the gear 42 would go down in a counter-clockwise rotation on the toothed segment 40 when the tilt stop was not activated. This movement is blocked here but because of the abutting gear stop 45 and disc stop 46. The synchronous movement of the office chair is thus completely prevented here.
  • both the device for the tilt stop as well as the device for the bias voltage are particularly suitable to be used in an office chair with a synchronous movement designed according to the invention.
  • the inclination stop allows an optional and particularly easy-to-use limitation of the synchronous movement with simple means, while the bias is mainly due to the very large adjustment range, but certainly also because of the basic simplicity, well suited.
