Definitions

  • the application relates to a variable piece of furniture with at least two seating elements, on each of which a person can take place, wherein at least one seat element between a first and a second position back and forth is displaced.
  • Such pieces of furniture are known for example in the form of sofas, in which a seat element can be pivoted by 90 ° about a vertical pivot axis. This gives the opportunity to vary the geometry of the piece of furniture, so that, for example, a straight-lined sofa can be converted into a corner sofa with two legs aligned perpendicular to each other.
  • a corner sofa with two mutually perpendicular legs, in which a leg between a first, perpendicular to the other leg aligned position and a second, parallel to the other leg aligned position is movable back and forth, is from the patent DE 100 01 558 C1 known.
  • a person sitting comfortably on a seat element generally has a viewing direction predetermined by the orientation of the seat element.
  • the piece of furniture usually occupies a predetermined position in the room.
  • the viewing direction of the person sitting on the seat element is ultimately determined by the arrangement of the piece of furniture in the room.
  • a user of the piece of furniture must therefore very carefully consider how he arranges the piece of furniture in the room, because by the piece of furniture, the space is divided into two different areas, the piece of furniture is easily accessible only from one area and persons, sitting on the piece of furniture, facing only one of the two areas. Communication with people in the other area is made more difficult.
  • Object of the present invention is to develop a piece of furniture of the type mentioned in such a way that it has improved possibilities of variation and thereby counteracts a positioning in the middle of a room of a rigid subdivision of the space into two separate areas.
  • the at least one seat member is displaced so that a person can take place either from a first page or from a first side opposite the second side of the piece of furniture on the seat element.
  • the idea flows in that a rigid subdivision of a space in an area in front of the piece of furniture and an area behind the piece of furniture can be counteracted by at least one seat element can be changed in its orientation by 180 °.
  • the person taking the seat can turn to the room area in front of the piece of furniture or the space behind the piece of furniture by simply shifting the seat element.
  • the communication between the people in the room is thereby improved, a rigid division of the space into two separate areas is counteracted.
  • the at least one displaceable seat element is pivotable about at least 180 ° about a vertical axis. This makes the seat element easily accessible from opposite sides of the piece of furniture.
  • the at least one displaceable seat element is at least 270 ° pivotable about a vertical axis.
  • the at least one displaceable seat element is pivotable through 360 ° about a vertical axis.
  • the at least one displaceable seat element first and second backrest parts, wherein in a first position of the seat element, the first backrest part as a backrest and the second backrest part acts as an armrest and wherein in the second position of the seat element, the first backrest part as an armrest and the second backrest part acts as a backrest.
  • a backrest part can optionally serve as an armrest or as a backrest. It is particularly advantageous if the at least one displaceable seat element is pivotable through 90 ° about a vertical axis.
  • the backrest parts can act as an armrest and also as a backrest, a pivoting movement of 90 ° is sufficient to change the orientation of the seat element by 180 °. This facilitates the handling of the furniture.
  • the at least one displaceable seat element can be pivoted by 270 ° about a vertical axis.
  • the two backrest parts are identical.
  • the two backrest parts are directly connected.
  • the two backrest parts are integrally connected to each other.
  • a further simplification of the handling of the piece of furniture during displacement of the at least one seat element is achieved in an advantageous embodiment in that the first backrest part is pivotable at the transition of the displaceable seat element from the first position to the second position in the direction away from an immediately adjacent seat element direction.
  • first backrest part is pivotable in the transition of the displaceable seat element from the first position to the second position in the direction of an immediately adjacent seat element facing direction.
  • the piece of furniture preferably comprises at least a first, displaceable seat element and at least one second, non-displaceable seat element. It is particularly favorable if the piece of furniture has at least two seat elements which are displaceable in such a way that a person can optionally take a seat on a respective seat element from a first side or from a second side of the furniture opposite the first side.
  • a further seat element is arranged between the two displaceable seat elements.
  • the further seat element may for example be designed such that it has neither an armrest nor a backrest. This gives the user the opportunity not only to occupy a seated position on one of the two displaceable seat elements, but he can also assume a lying position, wherein he claimed in addition to a movable seat element and the other seat element.
  • the further seat element is preferably held immobile.
  • a particularly preferred embodiment of the piece of furniture according to the invention is characterized in that the piece of furniture in the plan view is L-shaped and has two mutually perpendicular legs, wherein at the free end of at least one leg, a seat member is arranged, which is displaceable such that a Person either from a first page or from one of the first side opposite second side of the furniture on the seat element can take place.
  • a seat member is arranged in the connecting region of the two legs, which is displaceable so that a person can take place either from a first side or from a first side opposite the second side of the piece of furniture on the seat element.
  • the displacement of the at least one seat element takes place in an advantageous embodiment in that the seat element is pivotable about a vertical pivot axis and in a direction aligned perpendicular to the pivot axis plane.
  • the displaceability makes it possible to initially move the displaceable seat element in such a way that it occupies a greater distance from an immediately adjacent seat element. Subsequently, the seat element can be pivoted about the vertical pivot axis and then moved back in the direction of the adjacent seat element.
  • the storage of the at least one displaceable seat element is preferably carried out via a slotted guide. This increases the mechanical strength of the piece of furniture. The risk that the displaceable seat element canted during its movement can be kept low by the slotted guide.
  • the slotted guide allows the user to relocate the seat element without much effort.
  • the link guide allows a movable mounting of the at least one seat element to a support member.
  • the latter may for example have a link plate with at least one guide groove in which a sliding block held on the seat element is displaceable.
  • the slotted guide on a straight and a curved guide groove, in each of which a sliding block is displaceable.
  • the linear guide groove makes it possible in a simple manner to move the seat member in a direction perpendicular to the vertical pivot axis aligned plane, thereby the distance of this seat member to an adjacent To increase seating element. Subsequently, the seat element can be pivoted by providing the curved guide groove in a simple manner.
  • the seat element has a backrest and an armrest, which are aligned perpendicular to each other, and when the linear guide groove is oriented relative to the first position of the seat element in the direction of the bisector between the backrest and the armrest.
  • the seat part has only one backrest, then it is favorable if the rectilinear guide groove is aligned parallel to the backrest.
  • the piece of furniture can be designed in a variety of forms. It is particularly advantageous if the furniture is upholstered.
  • FIGS. 1 to 5 schematically an inventive piece of furniture in the form of a sofa 10 is shown.
