Description

La présente invention est relative aux fauteuils de relaxation et plus particulièrement à ceux utilisés à l'extérieur.The present invention relates to relaxation chairs and more particularly to those used outside.

Il existe dans le commerce un nombre considérable de fauteuils de relaxation, chaises longues et autres dispositifs semblables destinés au repos à l'extérieur. Certains de ces dispositifs sont du type "brouette", c'est-à-dire qu'ils comportent un châssis dont l'une des extrémités est associée à une paire de roues. Dans ce genre d'articles, le dossier est quelquefois inclinable'suivant plusieurs positions, tandis que le repose-jambes est réalisé d'une seule pièce avec l'article ou indépendant de celui-ci. Dans certain cas encore, il existe des fauteuils de relaxation du genre en question dont le repose-jambes est articulé à la surface de siège et comporte quelquefois deux panneaux articulés.There are a considerable number of relaxation chairs, deckchairs and similar devices intended for resting outside on the market. Some of these devices are of the "wheelbarrow" type, that is to say that they comprise a chassis, one of the ends of which is associated with a pair of wheels. In this type of article, the backrest is sometimes reclining in several positions, while the legrest is made in one piece with the article or independent of it. In certain cases also, there are relaxation chairs of the kind in question, the legrest of which is articulated to the seat surface and sometimes comprises two articulated panels.

Dans tous les cas, il est indispensable que l'utilisateur se lève du fauteuil s'il désire modifier l'inclinaison du dossier et/ou du repose-jambes, ce qui est un inconvénient. De plus, les fauteuils de relaxation dits "brouette" ne peuvent pas s'empiler du fait de la présence des roues.In all cases, it is essential that the user gets up from the chair if he wishes to change the inclination of the backrest and / or the legrest, which is a drawback. In addition, the so-called "wheelbarrow" relaxation chairs cannot be stacked due to the presence of the wheels.

Les perfectionnements qui font l'objet de la présente invention, visent à remédier aux inconvénients des fauteuils de relaxation connus et à permettre la réalisation d'un tel fauteuil qui réponde mieux que jusqu'à présent aux divers desiderata des utilisateurs.The improvements which are the subject of the present invention aim to remedy the drawbacks of known relaxation chairs and to allow the production of such a chair which responds better than hitherto to the various wishes of users.

Le fauteuil de relaxation suivant l'invention du genre comprenant un châssis monté sur des pieds, une surface de siège fixée au châssis et par rapport à laquelle sont montés pivotants, à l'arrière un dossier à plusieurs positions, et à l'avant un repose-jambes en deux panneaux articulés, est caractérisé en ce que le dossier est associé à deux accoudoirs qui s'accrochent au châssis à au moins une position, de manière à déterminer l'inclinaison de ce dossier. Chacun des accoudoirs comporte a son extrémité libre opposée à celle qui est articulée par rapport au dossier, un doigt qui pénètre dans l'une ou l'autre de perforations ménagées dans une cloison inclinée située dans la partie haute d'un pied correspondant du châssis afin de déterminer diverses positions du dossier.The relaxation chair according to the invention of the kind comprising a frame mounted on legs, a seat surface fixed to the frame and relative to which are pivotally mounted, at the back a backrest with several positions, and at the front a legrest in two articulated panels, is characterized in that the backrest is associated with two armrests which hang on the chassis in at least one position, so as to determine the inclination of this backrest. Each of the armrests has at its free end opposite to that which is articulated with respect to the backrest, a finger which penetrates into one or the other of perforations formed in an inclined partition. located in the upper part of a corresponding leg of the chassis in order to determine various positions of the backrest.

  • F ig. 9 is a view similar to that of FIG. 4, but corresponding to the position of the leg rest of the chair illustrated in FIG. 6.

Le fauteuil de relaxation suivant l'invention comprend tout d'abord un châssis 1 illustré en fig. 1. Celui-ci comporte deux longerons 2, 3 réunis par des traverses 4, 5, 6 et 7. On observ que la traverse 4 réunit l'une des extrémités des deux longerons 2 et 3, tandis que celle 6 se trouve environ aux deux tiers de la longueur de ceux-ci. Quand à la traverse 7, elle réunit, comme illustré, les extrémités des longerons opposées à celles qui sont reliées par la traverse 4.The relaxation chair according to the invention firstly comprises a frame 1 illustrated in FIG. 1. This comprises two beams 2, 3 joined by crosspieces 4, 5, 6 and 7. It is observed that the crosspiece 4 joins one of the ends of the two beams 2 and 3, while that 6 is located approximately two-thirds of their length. As for the cross-member 7, it brings together, as illustrated, the ends of the side members opposite to those which are connected by the cross-member 4.

On note qu'en face des traverses 4 et 6, la face extérieure des longerons 2 et 3 porte des pieds 8, respectivement 9; chacun de ceux-ci présente en section transversale horizontale la forme d'un U dont le voile central vertical 8a, 9a se trouve placé à proximité de chaque longeron, tandis que les ailes 8b, 9b sont dirigées en direction de l'extérieur. Les, ailes de chaque pied sont légèrement convergentes en direction du sol et sont réunies par une patte 10 destinée à reposer sur celui-ci.Note that in front of the crosspieces 4 and 6, the outer face of the side members 2 and 3 carries feet 8, respectively 9; each of these has a horizontal cross section in the form of a U, the vertical central veil 8a, 9a is located near each spar, while the wings 8b, 9b are directed towards the outside. The wings of each foot are slightly convergent towards the ground and are joined by a tab 10 intended to rest on it.

Autrement dit, les pieds ont la forme générale d'un V ouvert en direction du haut.In other words, the feet have the general shape of a V open towards the top.

L'une des ailes 9b des pieds 9 qui se trouve située à l'arrière comporte une cloison inclinée 9c pour des raisons qu'on expliquera mieux plus loin. Au-dessus de la traverse 5 qui se trouve en gros au milieu des longerons 2 et 3, mais dont la position est en fait sans aucune importance, on a placé une surface de siège 11 réalisée au moyen d'une latte transversale étroite qui est associée de manière fixe au-dessus des longerons 2 et 3. De part et d'autre des deux extrémités de la surface de siège 11, il est prévu deux pivots horizontaux 12, 13 et 14, 15. Les pivots 12 et 14 se trouvent en alignement l'un de l'autre de manière à constituer avec une pièce correspondante une charnière pour un repose-jambes 16 (fig. 2). De façon identique, les pivots 13 et 15 servent à l'articulation d'un dossier 17 par rapport à la surface de siège 11.One of the wings 9b of the feet 9 which is located at the rear has an inclined partition 9c for reasons which will be better explained below. Above the cross-member 5 which is roughly in the middle of the longitudinal members 2 and 3, but whose position is in fact of no importance, a seat surface 11 has been placed made by means of a narrow transverse slat which is fixedly associated above the side members 2 and 3. On either side of the two ends of the seat surface 11, two horizontal pivots 12, 13 and 14, 15 are provided. The pivots 12 and 14 are located in alignment with one another so as to constitute with a corresponding part a hinge for a legrest 16 (fig. 2). Similarly, the pivots 13 and 15 are used to articulate a backrest 17 relative to the seat surface 11.

Sur chacun des côtés latéraux du dossier 17 est articulé un accoudoir 18 dont l'extrémité libre vient reposer contre un prolongement horizontal 9d de la cloison oblique 9c du pied correspondant, comme illustré en fig. 3. Bien entendu, lorsque le dossier est rabattu contre le châssis, il est maintenu en position horizontale par la traverse 4.On each of the lateral sides of the backrest 17 is articulated an armrest 18 whose free end comes to rest against a horizontal extension 9d of the oblique partition 9c of the corresponding leg, as illustrated in FIG. 3. Of course, when the backrest is folded against the chassis, it is held in a horizontal position by the cross-member 4.

Le repose-jambes 16 qui est quant à lui articulé autour des pivots 12 et 14, est réalisé au moyen de deux panneaux 16a, 16b dont le premier comporte au niveau d'une de ses extrémités des moyens de s'articuler autour des pivots 12, 14. L'autre extrémité du panneau 16a est associée de manière pivotante au panneau extrême 16b. Ce dernier comporte sur sa face extérieure des nervures transversales de renfort référencées 16c. Deux de ces nervures sont allongées en direction du bas de manière qu'en position horizontale du repose-jambes, l'une de ces nervures référencée 16d vienne buter contre deux coins 7a ménagés à chaque extrémité de la traverse 7, comme illustré en fig. 1. Les faces latérales verticales'du panneau 16b comportent chacune un pan coupé 16e qui, dans la position de fig. 4, repose contre la face oblique du coin 7a correspondant.The legrest 16 which is articulated around the pivots 12 and 14, is produced by means of two panels 16a, 16b, the first of which comprises, at one of its ends, means for articulating around the pivots 12 , 14. The other end of the panel 16a is pivotally associated with the end panel 16b. The latter has on its outer face transverse reinforcing ribs referenced 16c. Two of these ribs are elongated in the direction of the bottom so that in the horizontal position of the legrest, one of these ribs referenced 16d abuts against two corners 7a formed at each end of the cross member 7, as illustrated in FIG. 1. The vertical lateral faces of the panel 16b each have a cutaway 16th which, in the position of FIG. 4, rests against the oblique face of the corresponding corner 7a.

Lorsqu'un utilisateur est étendu en décubitus dorsal sur le fauteuil de relaxation dont les éléments sont horizontaux, son fondement repose sur la surface de siège 11. Si l'utilisateur s'asseoit, il peut saisir les accoudoirs et les déplacer vers l'avant en vue de faire basculer le dossier vers le haut, par exemple comme illustré en fig. 5 et 6. Dans la première de ces positions, il peut amener un doigt 18a de l'accoudoir dans l'une ou l'autre de deux perforations réalisées sous la forme de fentes 19, 20 ménagées transversalement dans la cloison 9c du pied 9 correspondant. Chaque doigt comporte une gorge 18b dans laquelle vient se positionner élastiquement l'arête arrondie supérieure 19a, 20a de chaque perforation 19, 20. On observe qu'à cet effet le doigt comporte une certaine épaisseur de manière qu'il coopère avec les deux arêtes de chaque fente, de telle sorte qu'ainsi l'accoudoir se trouve coincé dans l'une ou l'autre de ses deux positions qui déterminent celles du dossier 17 (fig. 7 et 8).When a user is lying supine on the relaxation chair, the elements of which are horizontal, its foundation rests on the seat surface 11. If the user sits down, he can grasp the armrests and move them forward in order to tilt the backrest upwards, for example as illustrated in fig. 5 and 6. In the first of these positions, it can bring a finger 18a of the armrest into one or the other of two perforations produced in the form of slots 19, 20 formed transversely in the partition 9c of the foot 9 corresponding. Each finger has a groove 18b in which the upper rounded edge 19a, 20a of each perforation 19, 20 is resiliently positioned. It is observed that for this purpose the finger has a certain thickness so that it cooperates with the two edges of each slot, so that the armrest is stuck in one or the other of its two positions which determine those of the backrest 17 (fig. 7 and 8).

Comme illustré en fig. 6, lorsque l'utilisateur est assis sur la surface de siège 11 et que son dos repose ou non contre le dossier, il lui est loisible de soulever le repose-jambes de manière que ses deux panneaux 16a, 16b déterminent entre eux un angle obtus afin de soutenir ses jambes lorsqu'elles sont légèrement pliées. Le fait d'amener le repose-jambes à cette position provoque un déplacement des pans coupés 16e par rapport aux coins 7a de la traverse 7, de telle sorte qu'une butée 16f vient en appui contre les coins 7a. La encore, les faces latérales du panneau extrême 16b du repose-jambe 16 comportent des pans coupés 169 qui viennent coopérer avec les faces obliques des coins 7a (fig. 9). On observe que la butée 16f est également une nervure transversale de hauteur supérieure à celle de la nervure 16d précédemment décrite.As illustrated in fig. 6, when the user is seated on the seat surface 11 and whether his back rests or not against the backrest, he is free to lift the legrest so that its two panels 16a, 16b determine between them an obtuse angle to support his legs when they are slightly bent. Bringing the legrest to this position causes the cut sides 16e to move relative to the corners 7a of the cross-member 7, so that a stop 16f bears against the corners 7a. Again, the side faces of the end panel 16b of the leg rest 16 have cut sides 16 9 which cooperate with the oblique faces of the corners 7a (fig. 9). It can be seen that the stop 16f is also a transverse rib with a height greater than that of the rib 16d previously described.

On comprend aisément que le changement de position du repose-jambes 16 s'effectue sans que l'utilisateur n'ait à descendre du fauteuil de relaxation et que ce changement de position s'effectue par actions sans effort sur le panneau 16a du fait de la coopération des pans coupés 16e par rapport aux faces obliques des coins 7a.It is easily understood that the change of position of the legrest 16 is carried out without the user having to get off the relaxation chair and that this change of position is effected by actions without effort on the panel 16a due to the cooperation of the cut sides 16e with respect to the oblique faces of the corners 7a.

Comme illustré en fig. 2, on peut gerber les uns sur les autres des fauteuils de relaxation suivant l'invention avec leurs éléments articulés ramenés en appui contre le châssis du fait que les pieds 8 et 9 sont déportés à l'extérieur, qu'ils ont une forme divergente vers le haut et qu'ils sont ouverts en direction latérale externe. Les pieds des fauteuils s'engagent les uns dans les autres pour obtenir une pile de fauteuils.As illustrated in fig. 2, it is possible to stack on each other relaxation chairs according to the invention with their articulated elements brought back into abutment against the frame because the feet 8 and 9 are offset to the outside, that they have a divergent shape upwards and they are open in lateral lateral direction. The legs of the chairs engage each other to obtain a stack of chairs.

On peut également associer les pieds 8 des fauteuls à des roues démontables 21 illustrées en traits discontinus en fig. 2, par exemple du genre de celles décrites dans le document FR 85 10118.It is also possible to associate the feet 8 of the chairs with removable wheels 21 illustrated in broken lines in FIG. 2, for example of the kind described in document FR 85 10118.
