Abstract

A cover for a sofa bed with a folding frame and two mattresses which form the seat base and back when in the sofa configuration is made in two sections (31, 32) which cover the base and back respectively. The two sections of the cover are joined by a seam along their long edges so they can open out when the sofa is in the bed position and form a single bedspread covering the whole of the bed. The corners of the cover are equipped with ties (13) to hold it in place.

Description

La présente invention concerne une garniture prête à l'emploi destinée à une banquette-lit constituée, d'une part, par un châssis connu en lui-même comportant un premier élément de châssis formant siège et un second élément de châssis formant dossier et d'autre part, par deux matelas identiques.The present invention relates to a ready-to-use lining intended for a sofa-bed constituted, on the one hand, by a chassis known in itself comprising a first chassis element forming a seat and a second chassis element forming a backrest and a on the other hand, by two identical mattresses.

Dans une telle banquette-lit, les deux éléments de châssis sont articulés l'un sur l'autre au niveau du creux d'assise pour pouvoir passer de la position d'assise à une position de couchage dans laquelle ils sont situés dans un même plan horizontal ; les deux matelas coopèrent quant à eux respectivement avec l'un des éléments de châssis et sont reliés par une charnière permettant leur déplacement de la position d'assise à la position de couchage et inversement.In such a sofa-bed, the two frame elements are articulated one on the other at the level of the seat recess in order to be able to pass from the sitting position to a sleeping position in which they are located in the same horizontal plane; the two mattresses for their part cooperate respectively with one of the frame elements and are connected by a hinge allowing their displacement from the sitting position to the sleeping position and vice versa.

Les banquettes-lits de ce type, qui sont particulièrement appréciées par les personnes, notamment les jeunes qui ne disposent que de peu d'espace ou encore en tant que lit d'appoint, en particulier dans des résidences secondaires, sont classiquement équipées de deux garnitures différentes, dont l'une est adaptée à la position d'assise et l'autre à la position de couchage ; l'utilisateur doit donc équiper son lit de draps au dernier moment et le refaire dès son lever pour disposer d'un intérieur « présentable », ce qui peut s'avérer particulièrement incommode.Sofa beds of this type, which are particularly appreciated by people, especially young people who have only limited space or even as an extra bed, in particular in second homes, are conventionally equipped with two different fittings, one of which is adapted to the sitting position and the other to the sleeping position; the user must therefore equip his bed with sheets at the last moment and remake it as soon as he gets up to have a "presentable" interior, which can be particularly inconvenient.

Or, il n'a jamais été proposé, jusqu'à présent, de garniture prête à l'emploi pouvant s'adapter automatiquement à la position d'assise et à la position de couchage, ce tout en étant confortable et satisfaisante du point de vue de l'esthétique.However, there has never been proposed, until now, ready-to-use upholstery which can automatically adapt to the sitting position and to the sleeping position, while being comfortable and satisfactory from the point of view. view of aesthetics.

La présente invention a pour objet de combler cette lacune.The object of the present invention is to fill this gap.

A cet effet, elle concerne une garniture du type susmentionné, caractérisée en ce qu'elle comporte :

  • un drap-housse de forme et de dimensions correspondant à l'ensemble des deux matelas,
  • une housse de couette essentiellement rectangulaire comportant deux bords frontaux et deux bords latéraux, subdivisée par une couture médiane en deux compartiments symétriques respectivement destinés à coopérer avec l'un des éléments de châssis et équipée de moyens permettant son emboîtement sans fixation sur les matelas, de sorte que la couture médiane soit située au niveau du creux d'assise, et
  • deux couettes identiques coopérant respectivement avec l'un des compartiments de la housse de couette.
To this end, it relates to a lining of the aforementioned type, characterized in that it comprises:
  • a fitted sheet of shape and dimensions corresponding to all of the two mattresses,
  • an essentially rectangular duvet cover comprising two front edges and two side edges, subdivided by a central seam into two symmetrical compartments respectively intended to cooperate with one of the elements of chassis and fitted with means allowing it to be fitted without being fixed on the mattresses, so that the center seam is situated at the level of the seat recess, and
  • two identical duvets cooperating respectively with one of the compartments of the duvet cover.

Conformément à l'invention, la housse de couette, qui peut être réversible, peut avoir une esthétique parfaitement adaptée au style de la pièce à laquelle elle est destinée. Elle peut, de plus, coopérer avec deux oreillers standards enveloppés de deux taies d'oreiller réalisées dans un tissu en harmonie avec celui de la housse de couette et ayant une double fonction : oreiller DANS la position de couchage et coussin dans la position d'assise.According to the invention, the duvet cover, which can be reversible, can have an aesthetic perfectly suited to the style of the room for which it is intended. It can, moreover, cooperate with two standard pillows wrapped in two pillowcases made of a fabric in harmony with that of the duvet cover and having a double function: pillow IN the sleeping position and cushion in the sleeping position seated.

Il est, bien entendu, particulièrement avantageux de fabriquer la housse de couette dans un tissu facilement lavable (qualité drap), notamment en machine, afin de permettre son remplacement facile.It is, of course, particularly advantageous to manufacture the duvet cover in an easily washable fabric (sheet quality), in particular in a machine, in order to allow its easy replacement.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, les moyens d'emboîtement de la housse de couette sur les matelas sont constitués par quatre découpes à angle droit respectivement situées aux quatre coins de la housse de couette et coopérant avec des bandes à nouer façon « flot » fixées de part et d'autre de chacune de ces découpes, de façon à permettre de définir quatre pans sur la périphérie de la housse de couette, à savoir deux pans frontaux et deux pans latéraux.According to another characteristic of the invention, the means for nesting the duvet cover on the mattresses are constituted by four cutouts at right angles respectively located at the four corners of the duvet cover and cooperating with bands to be tied in a "flow" fashion. »Fixed on either side of each of these cutouts, so as to define four sides on the periphery of the duvet cover, namely two front panels and two side panels.

Bien entendu, on pourrait également mettre en oeuvre des bandes fixées de manière différente, notamment des bandes Velcro® ou un système de fixation autre (type duffel coat par exemple) sans pour cela sortir du cadre de l'invention.Of course, it would also be possible to use strips fixed in a different manner, in particular Velcro® strips or another fixing system (duffel coat type for example) without departing from the scope of the invention.

La présence de ces quatre pans permet un emboîtement parfait de la housse de couette sur les matelas de sorte que la garniture reste stable aussi bien en position d'assise qu'en position de couchage.The presence of these four sides allows perfect fitting of the duvet cover on the mattresses so that the pad remains stable both in the sitting position and in the sleeping position.

De plus, la totale symétrie de la housse de couette de part et d'autre de la couture médiane permet une inversion dans le positionnement de la garniture qui est particulièrement avantageuse.In addition, the total symmetry of the duvet cover on either side of the middle seam allows an inversion in the positioning of the lining which is particularly advantageous.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, la housse de couette est équipée, à chacune des extrémités de la couture médiane, d'une saillie en forme de pointe permettant une meilleure adaptation de celle-ci à la géométrie du châssis en position d'assise, en particulier au niveau du creux d'assise.According to another characteristic of the invention, the duvet cover is equipped, at each end of the middle seam, with a point-shaped projection allowing a better adaptation of the latter to the geometry of the chassis in the position of seat, in particular at the level of the seat hollow.

Cette configuration correspond à une caractéristique essentielle de l'invention, vu qu'elle permet d'améliorer l'esthétique de la banquette-lit en position d'assise en garantissant que, au niveau du siège, le pan frontal et les pans latéraux tombent exactement à hauteur du sol.This configuration corresponds to an essential characteristic of the invention, since it makes it possible to improve the aesthetics of the sofa-bed in the sitting position by ensuring that, at the level of the seat, the front panel and the side panels fall exactly at ground level.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, la housse de couette est équipée, au niveau de ses bords frontaux respectifs, d'ouvertures d'introduction des couettes coopérant avec un rabat et avec des bandes à nouer façon « flot » fixées de part et d'autre de cette ouverture, de façon à permettre son obturation.According to another characteristic of the invention, the duvet cover is fitted, at its respective front edges, with openings for introducing the duvets cooperating with a flap and with “flow” tying bands fixed on either side. other of this opening, so as to allow it to be closed.

La présence, au niveau des bords frontaux et des coins de la banquette, de bandes nouées façon « flot » est, elle aussi, de nature à améliorer l'esthétique de celle-ci. Par ailleurs, et selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, les couettes ont une forme et des dimensions identiques correspondant exactement à chacun des compartiments de la housse de couette, ce qui garantit, d'une part, une grande facilité de mise en place et, d'autre part, un maintien sûr des couettes dans la housse de couette, ce sans fixation particulière.The presence, at the front edges and the corners of the bench, of bands knotted in a “flow” fashion is also likely to improve its aesthetics. Furthermore, and according to another characteristic of the invention, the duvets have an identical shape and dimensions corresponding exactly to each of the compartments of the duvet cover, which guarantees, on the one hand, great ease of fitting. and, on the other hand, secure hold of the duvets in the duvet cover, without any particular fixing.

Les caractéristiques de la garniture pour banquette-lit qui fait l'objet de l'invention seront décrites plus en détail en se référant aux dessins annexés dans lesquels :

  • la figure 1 est une vue d'une banquette-lit équipée de la garniture en position d'assise,
  • la figure la représente le châssis en position d'assise,
  • la figure 2 est une vue correspondant à la figure 1 mais représentant la banquette-lit en position de couchage,
  • la figure 3 est une vue en perspective de la housse de couette,
  • la figure 4 représente la housse de couette, vue pliée en deux,
  • la figure 5 représente une couette,
The characteristics of the upholstery for the sofa-bed which is the subject of the invention will be described in more detail with reference to the appended drawings in which:
  • FIG. 1 is a view of a sofa bed fitted with the lining in the sitting position,
  • FIG. 1a represents the chassis in the sitting position,
  • FIG. 2 is a view corresponding to FIG. 1 but showing the sofa-bed in the sleeping position,
  • FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the duvet cover,
  • FIG. 4 represents the duvet cover, view folded in half,
  • FIG. 5 represents a duvet,

Selon les figures 1, 1a et 2, la banquette-lit équipée de la garniture conforme à l'invention peut être déplacée d'une position d'assise (figure 1 et 1a) à une position de couchage (figure 2) et inversement.According to Figures 1, 1a and 2, the sofa bed equipped with the pad according to the invention can be moved from a sitting position (Figure 1 and 1a) to a sleeping position (Figure 2) and vice versa.

A cet effet, et selon la figure la, cette banquette est essentiellement constituée par un châssis 1 reposant sur des pieds 2 et comportant un premier élément de châssis 11 formant siège et un second élément de châssis 12 formant dossier. Les éléments de châssis 11 et 12 sont articulés l'un sur l'autre autour d'un axe x-x' situé au niveau du creux d'assise pour pouvoir passer de la position d'assise, dans laquelle ils font un angle α l'un avec l'autre, à la position de couchage, représentée sur la figure 2, dans laquelle ils sont situés dans un même plan horizontal.To this end, and according to FIG. 1 a, this bench seat is essentially constituted by a chassis 1 resting on feet 2 and comprising a first chassis element 1 1 forming a seat and a second chassis element 1 2 forming a backrest. The frame elements 1 1 and 1 2 are articulated one on the other about an axis xx 'situated at the level of the seat recess in order to be able to pass from the sitting position, in which they make an angle α with each other, in the lying position, shown in Figure 2, in which they are located in the same horizontal plane.

Selon les figures 1 et 2, les éléments de châssis 11, 12 sont respectivement équipés d'un matelas 31, 32 non représenté sur la figure 1a.According to Figures 1 and 2, the frame elements 1 1 , 1 2 are respectively equipped with a mattress 3 1 , 3 2 not shown in Figure 1a.

Les deux matelas 31, 32 sont parfaitement identiques et sont reliés par une charnière, non représentée sur les figures et coïncidant avec l'axe x-x' de façon à permettre le déplacement de la banquette-lit entre les deux positions susmentionnées.The two mattresses 3 1 , 3 2 are perfectly identical and are connected by a hinge, not shown in the figures and coinciding with the axis xx 'so as to allow the displacement of the sofa-bed between the two positions mentioned above.

En position d'assise (figure 1), le matelas 31 constitue le siège de la banquette, tandis que le matelas 32 en constitue le dossier.In the sitting position (Figure 1), the mattress 3 1 constitutes the seat of the bench, while the mattress 3 2 constitutes the backrest.

Par ailleurs, et selon les figures, la garniture se compose essentiellement d'un drap-housse 4 ayant une forme et des dimensions correspondant à l'ensemble des deux matelas 31, 32 (figure 2) d'une housse de couette 5 renfermant deux couettes 61, 62 telles que représentées sur la figure 5 ainsi que de deux coussins 71, 72 représentés sur les figures 1 et 2 et ayant la double fonction d'oreiller en position de couchage (figure 2) et de coussin en position d'assise (figure 1).Furthermore, and according to the figures, the lining essentially consists of a fitted sheet 4 having a shape and dimensions corresponding to the assembly of the two mattresses 3 1 , 3 2 (FIG. 2) of a duvet cover 5 containing two quilts 6 1 , 6 2 as shown in FIG. 5 as well as two cushions 7 1 , 7 2 represented in FIGS. 1 and 2 and having the double function of a pillow in the sleeping position (FIG. 2) and of cushion in sitting position (figure 1).

Selon les figures 3 et 4, la housse de couette 5 est constituée par un élément essentiellement rectangulaire comportant deux bords frontaux 81, 82 et deux bords latéraux 91, 92.According to Figures 3 and 4, the duvet cover 5 is constituted by an essentially rectangular element having two front edges 8 1 , 8 2 and two side edges 9 1 , 9 2 .

Cet élément 5 est subdivisé par une couture médiane 10 en deux compartiments symétriques 111, 112 parfaitement identiques qui sont représentés repliés l'un sur l'autre sur la figure 4.This element 5 is subdivided by a central seam 10 into two perfectly identical symmetrical compartments 11 1 , 11 2 which are shown folded over one another in FIG. 4.

Les dimensions de la housse 5 sont celles d'une couette classique, à savoir une longueur de l'ordre de 2,60 m à 2,70 m pour une largeur de 2,20 m à 2,30 m.The dimensions of the cover 5 are those of a conventional quilt, namely a length of the order of 2.60 m to 2.70 m for a width of 2.20 m to 2.30 m.

La housse 5 est totalement réversible, de sorte que chaque compartiment 111, 112 peut coopérer soit avec l'élément de châssis 11 et le matelas 31 correspondant au siège de la banquette-lit, soit avec l'élément de châssis 12 et avec le matelas 32 correspondant au dossier de cette même banquette.The cover 5 is completely reversible, so that each compartment 11 1 , 11 2 can cooperate either with the frame element 1 1 and the mattress 3 1 corresponding to the seat of the sofa-bed, or with the frame element 1 2 and with the mattress 3 2 corresponding to the back of this same bench.

Selon les figures 3 et 4, la housse de couette 5 est, par ailleurs, équipée à chacun de ses coins d'une découpe à angle droit 121, 122, 123, 124 permettant son emboîtement sans fixation sur les matelas 31, 32 en position d'assise et en position de couchage comme représenté sur les figures 1 et 2.According to Figures 3 and 4, the duvet cover 5 is, moreover, equipped at each of its corners with a cut at right angles 12 1 , 12 2 , 12 3 , 12 4 allowing it to be fitted without being fixed on the mattresses 3 1 , 3 2 in the sitting position and in the sleeping position as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2.

Il est à noter qu'en position d'assise, la couture médiane 10 coïncide avec le creux d'assise et avec l'axe x-x' d'articulation des deux éléments de châssis 11, 12.It should be noted that in the sitting position, the central seam 10 coincides with the seat recess and with the axis xx 'of articulation of the two chassis elements 1 1 , 1 2 .

Selon les figures, chacune des découpes 121, 122, 123, 124 coopère avec des bandes 13 à nouer façon « flot » fixées notamment cousues de part et d'autre de celles-ci de façon à définir, sur la périphérie de la housse de couette 5, deux pans frontaux 141, 142 et deux pans latéraux 151, 152 permettant l'emboîtement de la housse de couette 5 sur les matelas 31, 32 (figures 1 et 2).According to the figures, each of the cutouts 12 1 , 12 2 , 12 3 , 12 4 cooperates with bands 13 to be tied in a "flow" manner, fixed in particular sewn on either side of them so as to define, on the periphery of the duvet cover 5, two front panels 14 1 , 14 2 and two side panels 15 1 , 15 2 allowing the duvet cover 5 to be fitted onto the mattresses 3 1 , 3 2 (Figures 1 and 2).

Par ailleurs, et selon les figures 3 et 4, la housse de couette 5 est équipée, à chacune des extrémités de la couture médiane 10, d'une saillie en forme de pointe 161, 162 permettant une adaptation optimale de celle-ci à la géométrie de la banquette-lit en position d'assise (figure 1) de sorte qu'au niveau du siège (matelas 31) le pan frontal 141 et les deux pans latéraux 151, 152 tombent exactement à hauteur du sol.Furthermore, and according to FIGS. 3 and 4, the duvet cover 5 is equipped, at each end of the middle seam 10, with a point-shaped projection 16 1 , 16 2 allowing an optimal adaptation of the latter. to the geometry of the sofa-bed in the sitting position (Figure 1) so that at the level of the seat (mattress 3 1 ) the front panel 14 1 and the two side panels 15 1 , 15 2 fall exactly at the level of the ground.
