Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the general field of the furniture industry; it relates more particularly to an improvement to the structures of sitting or sleeping whose body support means (in the form of slats or support trays) tend to self-balance in efforts.
  • This provides a comfortable sleeping plan that adapts well to the shape of the body of the user and supports very evenly all body lines, regardless of the weights and depths of curves in the presence.
  • the present invention provides a new structure to overcome these disadvantages.
  • This seat or sleeping structure integral with a bed frame structure, mattress, seat or pillow is therefore of the type comprising - body support means support elements, and - bodies that carry at least two of said support elements, so as to realize their connection and allow their movements relative to each other, in a vertical or substantially vertical direction, to tend to self-balance the support efforts on said body support means.
  • said connecting members are each in the form of a tilting member pivotally mounted on the bed frame structure, mattress, seat or pillow, said tilting member carrying said support members of the body support means by means of flexible or rigid connecting elements acting in tension, the two ends of each of said connecting elements being pivotally secured by a hinge, respectively with said associated support member and said associated tilting member.
  • Such a structure makes it possible to limit the number of parts necessary for its realization, simplifies the assembly in the absence of voltage adjustments and makes it possible to absorb the variations of center distance generated by the movements of slatted bedsteads.
  • the body support means may be in the form of parallel slats or juxtaposed trays. These support means are held in suspension by means of the tilting members associated with the connecting elements. When a large amount of force is applied to one of the support elements, the pivot-mounted rockers are lowered and pivoted by means of the articulated arms. The rotatably driven rockers pull the articulated arms and thereby lift the adjacent support members that are subjected to less force. The entire system self-balances and allows the suspension elements to fit well to the body shapes of the user, for better comfort.
  • the body support elements carry a mattress or seat or pillow lining. At the ends of the bed base, seat or pillow, the articulated arms are preferably fixedly connected directly to the support frame, or by means of suitable fastening elements. As indicated above, this seat or sleeping structure can be integral with a bed frame structure or integrated within a seat cushion, mattress or pillow.
  • the body support means are in the form of trays and the tilting members are mounted on a ball joint secured to the frame of the structure, which tilting members are associated with four support members of said means of bodily support, each via a flexible or rigid connecting element, said support members of the body support means being themselves each associated with four tilting members.
  • the body support means are in the form of trays and the tilting members are articulated about a pivot axis on the frame of the structure;
  • the tilting members are each associated with two support members of said body support means, each by means of a flexible or rigid connecting element, said support elements of the body support means being each associated with four tilting members, two first of said tilting members, located on either side of each support member being articulated about parallel axes, and the other two tilting members, located on either side of each support element, also being articulated around parallel axes but which are perpendicular to the axes of articulation of said two first tilting members.
  • the body support means are in the form of parallel slats secured to a frame by means of support means arranged vis-à-vis, which support means comprise support elements for receiving ends of said slats, each interposed between two tilting members and each carried by said juxtaposed tilting members, by means of flexible or rigid connecting elements, said tilting members being rotatably mounted on said frame, around a axis parallel to the longitudinal axis of said slats.
  • at least some facing tilting members are advantageously interconnected by a connecting element forming a torsion bar and ensuring the synchronization of their pivoting.
  • the support elements of the body support means which are located at the ends or around the perimeter of the structure, as the case may be, are integral with the frame of the structure via at least one member of the body. fixed end associated with a flexible or rigid connection element.
  • the tilting members each consist of a part whose lower end is provided with the pivot and whose upper end is associated with the joints of the connecting elements;
  • the support elements of the body support means are each in the form of a part whose lower end is associated with the joints of said connecting elements, and whose upper end carries at least one support means body shaped slat or tray.
  • the joints associated with the support elements are located below the joints associated with the tilting members.
  • the seat or sleeping structure 1 schematically illustrated on the Figures 1 to 3 comprises body support means 2 in the form of horizontal plates fixed in a removable manner or not on the support members 3, themselves carried by tilting members 4, by means of articulated link arms 5.
  • the tilting members 4 are each mounted on the frame 6 of the structure by means of pivots 7 in the form of ball joints, arranged at their lower end.
  • the connecting arms 5 connect the upper end of the tilting members 4 and the lower end of the support members 3 by means of articulations 5 '.
  • These link arms 5 may be made of flexible or rigid material. If they are made of rigid material (for example rigid plastic material), the end joints 5 'are in the form of thinned areas of material, or in the form of tenons or patches arranged on one of the parts, cooperating with adapted orifices arranged in the other room. If they are made of flexible material (for example textile or wire plastic) the corresponding joints 5 'are obtained by the flexibility of the material itself.
  • each tilting member 4 is connected in cross to four support members 3 through, each time, a connecting arm 5; and each element 3 supporting body support means 2 is itself connected in cross to four tilting members 4.
  • each support means 2 with its associated support member 3 is suspended mounted, carried by the four rocker members 4 associated, by means of arms 5 which extend upwardly from the base of each support member 3.
  • This kind of structure allows the realization of a support plan constituted by the upper face of the different trays 2 juxtaposed.
  • the support plane defined by the juxtaposition of trays 2 can receive any mattress or lining (seat cushion or pillow ).
  • link arms 5 act permanently in traction and that they can therefore be made of flexible material, without this adversely affecting or affecting the correct operation of the structure.
  • FIG 4 is a variant of that of Figures 1 to 3 .
  • the structure is shown schematically (and partially), seen from below; for the sake of simplification, the elements identical to the previous embodiment retain the same references.
  • the "internal" support plates 2 (that is to say those which are not located on the periphery of the structure), associated with their support elements 3, are each carried by four arms of link 5 integral with rocker members 4 'mounted on the frame 6, no longer on a ball but on a pivot axis 10.
  • Each rocker member 4 ' is associated with two support members 3 via link arms 5, and each support member 3 is associated with four rocker members 4'.
  • the pivot axes 10 of the rocker members 4 ' are oriented perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the link arms 5 associated.
  • two of said first tilting members 4' located on either side of the support element 3 are articulated about parallel axes
  • the two two other tilting members 4 ', located on either side of said support member 3 are also articulated about parallel axes, but which are perpendicular to the axes of articulation of said two first tilting members.
  • the flexible or rigid link arms 5 operate permanently by traction.
  • FIGS. 5 to 7 illustrate another possible embodiment of the seat or sleeping structure according to the invention, wherein the body support means are in the form of parallel slats 2 'whose ends are carried by support means secured to two frame parts 6 vis-à-vis, for example bed frame spars.
  • the functional elements identical to the preceding embodiments retain the same references.
  • the slats 2 ' are carried by support elements 3' (in the form of slatted receiving tips), themselves carried by two lateral tilting members 4 ", via connecting arms 5.
  • Each support member 3 ' is carried by two tilting members 4 "juxtaposed and each rocker member 4" carries two support elements 3' juxtaposed.
  • the tilting members 4 are pivotally mounted on the frame 6 about tilting axes 10 which extend parallel to the longitudinal axis of the slats 2 '.
  • the articulated arms 5 go up from the support elements 3 'to the rocker members 4 "(and also to the end pieces 8); figure 5 ) the joints 5 'associated with the support members 3' are below the joints 5 'associated with rocker members 4 ".
  • rocker members 4 "facing the longitudinal members 6 may be connected by torsion bars 11, extending parallel to the slats 2 ', to ensure synchronization of their failover.
  • the connecting arms 5 are made of flexible or rigid material and they act permanently by traction.
  • the fixed end pieces 8 and the rocker members 4 "are provided with one-piece extensions 5 forming the rigid connecting arms, the joints 5 'being obtained by thinning material.
  • the arms 5 comprise a one-piece stud 13 adapted to be fitted into a suitable orifice 14 formed in the support member 3 'to ensure the removable attachment of the two elements.
  • thinning material allows the realization of the associated joint 5 '.
