Description

ARMREST, IN PARTICULAR FOR OFFICE CHAIRS.
The present invention relates to an armrest, in particular for office chairs.
Armrests are known consisting of a substantially L-shaped support bracket with the end of the horizontal part connected to the chair frame and the upper end of the vertical part carrying a pad on which the user's arm rests.
These known armrests are provided with a multiplicity of adjustment elements for satisfying the most varied ergonomic requirements of the user.
In particular, said elements enable the following to be adjusted:
- width: distance between the right pad and left pad of the chair,
- height: top of the pad from the upper surface of the seating portion,
- depth: distance of the pad from the back resting surface,
- angularity: pad orientation to the forearm.
These known armrests present however the drawback of consisting of an assemblage of a large number of small metal and plastic parts with the i nconven ience of h avi ng to use tool s and special ized l a bou r for the i r assembly.
Another drawback is the fact that these armrests, being totally factory assem bled , prove to be bu l ky prod ucts wh ich are d ifficu lt to store and transport, with consequent relative costs.
US 6 974 190 B1 discloses an armrest including a steam and a sleeve defining a cavity, with the steam being movable relative to the steam.
An object of the invention is to provide an armrest which can be assembled rapidly without the use of tools. These and other objects wh ich will be apparent from the ensu ing description are attained according to the invention by an armrest, in particular for office chairs, as described in claim 1 .
A preferred embodiment of the present invention is further clarified hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a chair provided with the armrest according to the invention,
Figure 2 shows the assembly of the first component of the armrest with the insertion-fitting of the plug into the bracket,
Figures 3 and 4 are exploded perspective views showing the assembly of the second component of the armrest with application of the pad to the plate by interposing the armrest flange,
Figure 5 is a perspective view showing the final mou nting of the second component onto the first, and
Figure 6 is a long itudinal section through the armrest according to the invention.
As can be seen from the fig u res, the armrest 2 accord ing to the invention is applied to the support structure for the seating portion 4 of a chair, in particular an office chair.
Th e box 6 is fixed on the underside of the structure to house the swivel mechan ism provided with trad itional members 8 and in wh ich the column of a gas spring 1 0 engages, which at its other end is supported by a spoked base 12 provided with wheels 14.
In particular, the armrest comprises a tubular L-shaped bracket 16 with its horizontal part 1 8 comprising a slotted hole 20 for the insertion of a screw 22 anchored to the seating portion support structure, enabling the distance of the armrest from the seating portion to be adjusted.
The vertical part 24 of the bracket houses internally a plug 26 provided with a plurality of slots 28.
In particular, the insertion-fitting of the plug 26 into the vertical part 24 is stabilized by the inner part of toothed strips 30 projecting into the interior of th e cav ity of th e verti ca l pa rt 24 of th e b rac ket 1 6 a nd e ng ag i n g i n corresponding notches 32 provided in the plug.
The vertical part 24 of the bracket 16 with the plug 26 applied to it is slidingly inserted into a tube 34 with the upper end provided with a flange 36 consisting of a lower circumferential band 38 and an upper elliptical plate 40 the lower surface of which forms an abutment 42.
The limit stop, to prevent total withdrawal of the tube 34 from the vertical part 24, is obtained by engagement between the outer portion 44 of the toothed strips 30 and corresponding seats 46 provided in the inner lateral surface of the tube.
The lateral surface of the tube also comprises a hole 48 the function of which is clarified hereinafter.
The upper surface of the plate 40 is provided with two semi-cylindrical seats 50 and has its perimetral edge provided with two diametrically opposite flexible ribs 52.
A locking element 54 inserted into the tube 34 consists of an arm 56 provided upperly with a pin 58 the ends of wh ich are housed in the sem i- cylindrical seats 50 of a pushbutton 60 which projects from the hole 48 in the tube, and provided lowerly with a tooth 62 which under the action of a spring 64 selectively engages one of the slots 28 of the plug 26, depending on the position of the tube 34 relative to the vertical part 24 of the bracket 16.
A plate 66 applied to the tube 34 from below comprises a circular hole 68 of diameter corresponding to that of the circumferential band 38 such that said plate rests on the abutment surface 42. The circular hole 68 and the circumferential band 38 act as guides for the rotation of the plate 66 about the tube 34.
Sa id pl ate 66 is of su bsta ntial ly rectang u l ar sha pe in pl a n and presents internally two baffles 70 provided with a plurality of grooves 72 selectively cooperating with the flexible ribs 52 of the flange 36.
The lower surface of the longitudinal parallel edges of the plate 66 comprises two steps 74 engagable by two corresponding fillets 78 projecting lowerly from the lower surface of a pad 80.
The fil lets 78 converge inwards and consequently engage the two steps 74 of the plate 66 to securely retain the flange 40 interposed between them and hence retain the tube 34.
The lower surface 89 of the pad 80 retains, in the two semi-cylindrical seats 50 of the tube 34, the fulcrum pin 58 of the locking element 54.
The edges of the plate 66 and the in ner su rface of the fil l ets 78 respectively comprise flexible teeth 88 and grooves 86, which ensure stepwise movement of the pad relative to the plate 66.
Horizontal withdrawal of the pad 80 from said plate 66 is prevented by the presence of a l imit stops 84 and 85 provided respectively on the lateral sides of the plate 66 and on the inside of the fillets 78 of the pad 80.
The armrest according to the invention is constructed without the need for tools by following a few particularly simple operations: - the first component is assembled by coupling the plug 26 to the bracket 1 6 as shown in Figure 2,
- the second component is assembled by mounting the pad 80 on the plate 66 which has been previously mounted about the tube 34 and made to abut ag a i nst th e fl ange 36 , so cou pl ing to th e tu be 34 al l the i nterposed adjustment elements as shown in Figures 3 and 4,
- the two components are mounted by inserting the tube 34 into the bracket 16 as shown in Figure 5.
Given the extreme simplicity of these operations the components can be assembled, stored and transported separately, to be coupled during the final stage of assembling the seating portion.
The arm of the invention is adjusted as follows:
- width : the screws 22 are slackened and the L-shaped brackets 1 6 are slid along the slotted holes 20;
- height: to adjust the height the pushbutton 60 of the rod 54 is pushed to disengage the tooth 62 from the correspond ing slot 28 of the plug 26; In this manner the tube 34 can slide freely relative to the vertical part 24 of the bracket 1 6 u ntil , having reached the desired height, the pushbutton is released to cause the spring 64 to engage the tooth in the chosen slot 28 facing it.
- depth : this adjustment is achieved by sliding the pad 80 along the plate 66 with stepwise advancement given by the engagement between the flexible teeth 88 and the grooves 86.
- angularity: this adjustment is achieved by rotating the pad 80 and the plate 66 connected thereto about the tube 34 and engaging the elastic ribs 52 stepwise in the grooves 72 of the plate 66. In this manner the advantage is obtained of achieving an economical and reliable system with few components and with simplified assembly without tools. Moreover the ease of assembly makes it possible to store and transport partially assembled products, so ach ieving important log istical and storage cost advantages.
