Definitions

  • the subject of the invention is a seat structure with a damping device for a reclining seat back and a device for adjusting the inclination of the seat, applicable in the furniture sector and more specifically the seat furniture sector. for the medical or paramedical sector.
  • the backrest is also cushioned and thus provide a flexible permanent support on the back of the person when he or she sits on the seat or when he or she gets out or simply during the adjustments.
  • the quality of cushioning is very important and must allow flexible and progressive cushioning of the back when the person settles down, regardless of the person's build.
  • the present invention provides a device adjustable damping of the inclination of the back of a seat and of a device for positioning the seat cushion.
  • the seat structure is visible on all Figures 1 to 5 from different angles, figures on which we consider for the rest of the description an orthonormal reference frame X, Y, Z.
  • X corresponds to the front / rear axis of the seat, substantially horizontal with the inclinations close.
  • Y corresponds to the substantially horizontal axis, perpendicular to X.
  • Z corresponds to the longitudinal axis of the backrest, perpendicular to the XY plane, substantially vertical with the inclinations close.
  • the seat structure comprises seat means 10 and a backrest 12.
  • the seat means 10 comprise a fixed seat frame 14 and an adjustable seat structure 16 comprising two pivoting legs 16-1 and 16-2 , provided with two hinge pins 18. It is considered that the rear of the seat structure is the part comprising the backrest 12, the front of the seat structure being the face by which the user takes place.
  • the fixed seat frame 14 carries on its front part, a yoke 14C.
  • the fixed seat frame 14 also comprises means of adjusting, proper, the inclination of the seat 20, comprising a rack 22 with notches, in this case a succession of semicircular notches and a bar 24 in profile. notches, in this case of hemispherical section, cooperating with the notches of said rack 22.
  • the adjustable seat structure 16 comprises a frame, in the selected case of substantially square shape, developed in the plane X, Y and capable of receiving the comfort linings such as cushions and other textile elements, not shown.
  • This frame is integral with the pivot legs 16-1 and 16-2.
  • the fixed seat frame 14 is connected to an articulated element 26, itself comprising two longitudinal elements 26-1 and 26-2 articulated, between two of their ends, by a pivot 27 with an oblong hole so as to allow variations angular between said two longitudinal elements 26-1 and 26-2.
  • the oblong hole compensates for variations in length. This arrangement forming part of the damping device.
  • connection between the fixed seat frame 14 and the articulated element 26 is completed by two articulation axes 28-1 and 28-2 vertical, fixed relative to the seat frame, arranged at the two other ends of the longitudinal elements 26-1 and 26-2, allowing a horizontal pivoting movement of the two longitudinal elements 26-1 and 26-2 in the same plane.
  • the distal end of one of the longitudinal elements, in this case the right longitudinal element 26-1 is of triangular shape, substantially rectangle, so as to generate a vertex S distant from the vertical pivot point 28-1.
  • the back 12 of the seat structure is formed of a back support surface 30 and a connecting element 32 connecting said back support surface 30 to the seat frame 14 by means of two pivot axes 33, positioned along the Y axis, parallel to the hinge axes 18.
  • the connecting element 32 comprises a rigid element 34, taking the shape of the lower part of the back support surface 30, integral with two connecting lugs 36-1 and 36-2 pivoting by the pivot axes 33 relative to to the fixed seat frame 14 on the one hand and receiving the axes 18 of the pivot legs 16-1 and 16-2 on the other hand.
  • the connecting lugs 36-1 and 36-2 are integral, at their two other ends with a control bar 38 which connects them.
  • This control bar 38 carries three yokes 40-1, 40-2 and 40-3.
  • the articulated element 26 is connected to the control bar 38 by means of elastic return means R in this case the springs. These springs are moreover arranged in the central part of the articulated element, on either side of the pivot axis 27 to generate symmetry.
  • An adjustment bar 42 carries, fixedly, two handles 44 placed at each end of said adjustment bar 42 and three yokes 46-1, 46-2 and 46-3 regularly distributed.
  • the yokes 46-1, 46-2, 46-3 of the adjustment bar 42 are nested in pairs and are pivotally connected to the yokes 40-1, 40-2 and 40-3 of the connecting element 32 by horizontal axes.
  • a jack 50 is interposed between the seat frame 14 and the control bar 38.
  • the jack 50 is interposed between the central yoke 40-2 of the control bar 38 and the yoke 14C secured to the front of the fixed seat frame 14.
  • the body 52 of the jack 50 is connected via 'an axis of rotation 54 extending along the axis Y to the yoke 14C.
  • the rod 56 of the cylinder 50 is, in turn, connected to the central yoke 46-2 and has a tongue, not shown, which presses on the rod of the cylinder 56 provided with a control to authorize a control of positioning of the rod cylinder relative to the body.
  • a position is obtained in which the re-entry or exit of the rod is released when the tongue is pressed and a position for blocking the movements of the rod relative to the body when the tongue is released.
  • FIG 5 describes a block diagram through Figures 5A, 5C and 5E , the Figures 5B, 5D and 5F describing the same diagram but with a variation of the seat tilt.
  • the Figures 5A and 5B represent the folder 12 in the same position of the folder, substantially vertical.
  • the bar 24 is placed in the rearmost notch of the rack 22 and the adjustable seat structure 16 is further inclined towards the rear.
  • the frame has pivoted by its pivoting lugs 16-1 and 16-2 by the seat frame 14, around the axes 18 carried by the connecting lugs.
  • the adjustment is very simple, manual and ultra fast, with no instruments required.
  • the backrest 12 is inclined backwards. To this end, the user has maneuvered the handle 44. This movement has freed the movements of the rod 56 of the jack 50 relative to the body 52 of said jack 50. The freedom to maneuver is acquired as long as the user maintains the handle 44 tilted.
  • the jack provides damping of the movements and blocking in position as soon as the handles 44 are released.
  • the inclination of the backrest requires an effort on the part of the user to go against the elastic return means R which tend to bring the backrest forward, in minimum inclination.
  • These elastic return means R are intended to bring the backrest into a substantially vertical position, the jack 50 then ensuring damping of the return of said backrest 12 but this damping remains limited. This avoids that the user whose back would be distant from the inclined backrest, receives a shock from the backrest quickly recalled by the elastic return means, when the handle 44 is operated.
  • the present invention has provided an adjustment by a movable stop 58, in this case a screw 62 provided with a head 60 for rotation.
  • This movable stop 58 is mounted through on a lateral upright of the seat frame 14.
  • the inner part of the screw is adjusted to come to bear substantially at the right of the apex S of the longitudinal element 26-1. So when the user or an operator screws with the head 60, the screw 62 projects more and more inside the seat frame 14 and angularly displaces the apex S relative to the vertical axis 28-1. In fact the longitudinal element 26-1 pivots and causes the other longitudinal element 26-2 to pivot.
  • the two longitudinal elements make an angle less and less important.
  • the elastic return means R in this case the springs, are more and more tense.
  • the backrest is therefore more and more difficult to maneuver when tilting backwards.
  • a dynamic and / or heavy user will tend to screw the head 60 to have a firm back to maneuver while a slender and / or elderly person will tend to unscrew said head to limit the elastic restoring power.
  • the positioning of the backrest is identical but it can be seen that the seat structure, which was already initially inclined by the bar / rack assembly, is at a pronounced inclination due to the operation of the backrest 12 which induces an additional inclination of said seat, this time proportional to the inclination of the backrest 12.
  • the Figures 5E and 5F show a maximum inclination of the backrest with at 5F the maximum natural inclination of the adjustable seat structure 16 and maximum proportional to the inclination of the backrest.
  • the present invention allows the elastic restoring power of the backrest to be easily adjusted according to the needs of the user.
  • the seat is tiltable in proportion to the inclination of the backrest and includes its own inclination adjustment so that, for the same inclination of the backrest, there is a more pronounced adjustment of the seat.
