Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Sofa mit mindestens einem Seitenteil.The invention relates to a sofa with at least one side part.

Sofas mit Seitenteilen in Form von Armlehnen sind an sich bekannt. Die Armlehnen der bekannten Sofas sind starr montiert und somit in ihrer Position unveränderlich. Von Nachteil ist, dass solche Sofas mit starren Armlehnen als Liegemöbel unbequem sind.Sofas with side parts in the form of armrests are known per se. The Armrests of the known sofas are rigidly mounted and therefore in their position unchangeable. The disadvantage is that such sofas with rigid armrests as Loungers are uncomfortable.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es demgemäß, ein Sofa zu schaffen, das auch als Liegemöbel bequem ist.The object of the invention is therefore to provide a sofa that also as Recliner is comfortable.

Diese Aufgabe wird gemäß der Erfindung dadurch gelöst, dass das Sofa an einem Ende ein Drehgelenk mit einer näherungsweise vertikalen Drehachse aufweist, mit dem das Seitenteil drehbar gelagert ist, wobei das Seitenteil seitlich versetzt zur Drehachse angeordnet ist. Durch Schwenken des Seitenteiles um die Drehachse des Drehgelenks läßt sich das Seitenteil zwischen einer in Bezug auf das Sofa seitlich weiter innen befindlichen Position und einer seitlich weiter außen befindlichen Position hin- und zurück schwenken. In der weiter innen befindlichen Position hat das Seitenteil die Funktion einer Armlehne beim Sitzen auf dem Sofa. Diese Position wird deswegen nachfolgend Sitzposition genannt. In der weiter außen befindlichen Position hat das Seitenteil die Funktion einer Kopfstütze beim Liegen auf einer Sitzfläche des Sofas. Diese Position wird deswegen nachfolgend Liegeposition genannt. Durch Schwenken des Seitenteils aus der Sitz- in die Liegeposition verlängert sich eine freie und nutzbare Sitzfläche des Sofas, insbesondere um die Sitzfläche bequem zum ausgestreckten Liegen auf dem Sofa nutzen zu können. Zudem ist das zur Lagerung des Seitenteiles erforderliche Drehgelenk einfach und kompakt aufgebaut, so dass es in das Seitenteil eingebaut werden kann, von außen nicht mehr erkennbar ist und damit den ästhetischen Gesamteindruck des erfindungsgemäßen Sofas nicht stört.This object is achieved according to the invention in that the sofa at one end a hinge with an approximately vertical axis of rotation has, with which the side part is rotatably mounted, the side part laterally is arranged offset to the axis of rotation. By swiveling the side part around the axis of rotation of the swivel can refer to the side part between one on the sofa laterally further inside and one laterally further Swing the external position back and forth. In the further inside position, the side part has the function of an armrest when sitting on the couch. This position is therefore called seating position below. In the position further out, the side part has the function of a Headrest when lying on a seat of the sofa. This position will therefore called lying position below. By swiveling the side part a free and usable position extends from the sitting to the lying position Seat of the sofa, especially around the seat comfortably stretched couches on the sofa. In addition, that is Storage of the side part required swivel joint simple and compact constructed so that it can be built into the side panel, but not from the outside is more recognizable and thus the overall aesthetic impression of the sofas according to the invention does not bother.

Die beiden Positionen des Seitenteils, nämlich die Liegeposition und die Sitzposition, lassen sich eindeutig definieren und durch Verdrehen des Seitenteiles einstellen, wenn das Drehgelenk zwei Anschlagspositionen aufweist. Hierbei sind die beiden Anschlagspositionen derart festgelegt, dass sich das Seitenteil durch Verschwenken aus der Sitz- in die Liegeposition bezüglich des Sofas zur Seite bewegt.The two positions of the side part, namely the lying position and the Sitting position, can be clearly defined and by turning the Adjust the side part if the swivel joint has two stop positions. Here, the two stop positions are set such that the Side part by swiveling from the sitting to the lying position with respect to the Sofas moved to the side.

Bei einer Weiterbildung des erfindungsgemäßen Sofas ist die Drehachse des Drehgelenks geneigt, und zwar mit ihrem oberen Bereich nach innen also in Richtung einer Sofamitte, angeordnet. Beim Schwenken um die geneigte Drehachse bewegt sich das Seitenteil nicht nur seitlich, sondern das Seitenteil verschwenkt zusätzlich aus einer beispielsweise in der Sitzposition horizontalen in eine geneigte Lage. Dies bewirkt insbesondere, dass ein der Sitzfläche des Sofas zugewandter Teil des Seitenteiles in der Liegeposition nahe der Sitzfläche angeordnet ist, so dass sich das Seitenteil besonders gut als Kopfstütze eignet, und in der Sitzposition im Abstand von der Sitzfläche des Sofas angeordnet ist, so dass sich das Seitenteil gut als Armlehne eignet. In a development of the sofa according to the invention, the axis of rotation of the Swivel joint inclined, namely with its upper area inwards Towards the middle of the sofa. When swiveling around the inclined The side part not only moves laterally, but also the side part additionally pivots from a horizontal position, for example in the sitting position in an inclined position. In particular, this causes one of the seat surfaces of the Part of the side part facing the sofa in the lying position near the seat is arranged so that the side part is particularly suitable as a headrest, and is arranged in the sitting position at a distance from the seating surface of the sofa, so that the side part works well as an armrest.

Wird hierbei das Seitenteil derart gestaltet, dass es eine linsenförmige Querschnittsfläche aufweist, läßt sich in der Liegeposition des Seitenteils ein nahezu stufenfreier Übergang von der Sitzfläche des Sofas zum Seitenteil erreichen. Da das Seitenteil zu seiner Schwenkbarkeit nicht rund ausgebildet sein muß, sondern länglich, beispielsweise in Draufsicht in etwa rechteckförmig ausgebildet sein kann, läßt sich ein ein sehr attraktives Erscheinungsbild des erfindungsgemäßen Sofas erzielen, die Schwenkbarkeit des Seitenteils braucht aus dessen Form nicht erkennbar sein.If the side part is designed in such a way that it is lenticular Has cross-sectional area, can be in the lying position of the side part almost seamless transition from the seat of the sofa to the side part to reach. Because the side part is not round to swivel must be, but elongated, for example approximately rectangular in plan view can be trained, a very attractive appearance of the achieve sofas according to the invention, the pivotability of the side part needs not be recognizable from its shape.

In den Figuren 1 bis 3 ist ein erfindungsgemäßes Sofa 1 teilweise insoweit dargestellt, als es zur Erläuterung der Erfindung erforderlich ist. Das Sofa 1 besteht aus einem Sofakörper 2 mit Beinen 3 und einer Rückenlehne 4. Der Sofakörper 2 bildet einen Sitz des Sofas 1. Die Figuren 1 und 2 zeigen zusätzlich eine Auflage 5, an der die Beine 3 befestigt sind, und auf der der Sofakörper 2 aufliegt. Zudem ist an der Auflage 5 eine näherungsweise halbkreisförmige Halterung 6 für ein Seitenteil 7 befestigt, die seitlich um den Sofakörper 2 herumführt. In FIGS. 1 to 3, a sofa 1 according to the invention is partially so far shown as is necessary to explain the invention. The sofa 1 consists of a sofa body 2 with legs 3 and a backrest 4. The Sofa body 2 forms a seat of sofa 1. Figures 1 and 2 additionally show a support 5 to which the legs 3 are attached and on which the sofa body 2 lies on. In addition, there is an approximately semicircular on the support 5 Bracket 6 for a side part 7 attached laterally around the sofa body 2 leads around.

Das Seitenteil 7 ist mit einem Drehgelenk 8 auf der Halterung 6 befestigt ist, das in Figur 4 dargestellt und noch zu erläutern ist. Mit dem Drehgelenk 8 ist das Seitenteil 7 um eine Drehachse 9 schwenkbar, die zu einer gedachten Vertikalen etwas geneigt nach innen, also in Richtung einer Sofamitte, angeordnet ist. Das Seitenteil 7 ist seitlich versetzt zur Drehachse 9 auf dem Drehgelenk 8 angeordnet, es befindet sich ein größerer Teil des Seitenteils 7 auf einer und ein kleinerer Teil des Seitenteils 7 auf einer anderen Seite der Drehachse 9. Das Seitenteil 7 lässt sich im dargestellten und beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispiel um 180° um die Drehachse 9 aus einer in Figur 1 dargestellten Sitzposition in eine in Figur 2 dargestellte Liegeposition schwenken. In Figur 3 ist die Sitzposition des Seitenteils 7 mit durchgezogenen Linien und die Liegeposition mit Strichlinien dargestellt.The side part 7 is attached to the bracket 6 with a swivel 8, the shown in Figure 4 and still to be explained. With the swivel 8 that is Side part 7 pivotable about an axis of rotation 9, which to an imaginary vertical is slightly inclined inwards, i.e. towards the middle of the sofa. The Side part 7 is laterally offset from the axis of rotation 9 on the swivel joint 8 arranged, there is a larger part of the side part 7 on and smaller part of the side part 7 on another side of the axis of rotation 9. Das Side part 7 can be in the illustrated and described embodiment by 180 ° around the axis of rotation 9 from a seating position shown in FIG pivot a lying position shown in Figure 2. In Figure 3 is the Sitting position of the side part 7 with solid lines and the lying position shown with dashed lines.

Beim Schwenken des Seitenteils 7 aus der Sitzposition in die Liegeposition bewegt sich das Seitenteil 7 aufgrund seiner seitlich zur Drehachse 9 versetzten Anordnung bezüglich des Sofas 1 nach außen, wodurch eine freie Sitzfläche 10 bzw. ( des Sofas 1 um eine Länge Δl) vergrößert wird, wie in Figur 2 dargestellt, wo die Sitzposition des Seitenteils 7 zum Vergleich mit der Liegeposition mit Strichlinien angedeutet ist. Durch die Neigung der Schwenkachse 9 nach innen verändert das Seitenteil 7 beim Schwenken seine Lage. Während das Seitenteil 7 im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel in der Sitzposition eine in etwa horizontale Lage einnimmt, ist es in der Liegeposition schräg gestellt. Dadurch lässt sich, wie in Figur 2 zu sehen, ein nahezu stufenfreier Obergang von der Sitzfläche 10 des Sofas 1 zum Seitenteil 7 erreichen. Das Seitenteil 7 ist im Querschnitt linsenförmig um den stufenfreien Obergang von der Sitzfläche 10 des Sofas 1 zum Seitenteil in der Liegeposition zu ermöglichen. In Draufsicht bildet das Seitenteil 7 in etwa ein Rechteck, wie in Figur 3 zu sehen.When pivoting the side part 7 from the sitting position to the lying position moves the side part 7 due to its laterally offset to the axis of rotation 9 Arrangement with respect to the sofa 1 to the outside, whereby a free seat 10th or (the sofa 1 is increased by a length Δl), as shown in FIG. 2, where the sitting position of the side part 7 for comparison with the lying position with Dashed lines is indicated. Due to the inclination of the pivot axis 9 inwards changes the side part 7 when pivoting its position. While the side part 7 in the illustrated embodiment in the sitting position approximately horizontal position, it is tilted in the lying position. Thereby As can be seen in FIG. 2, an almost step-free transition from the Reach the seat 10 of the sofa 1 to the side part 7. The side part 7 is in Cross-section lenticular around the step-free transition from the seat surface 10 to allow the sofa 1 to the side part in the lying position. In top view the side part 7 forms approximately a rectangle, as can be seen in FIG. 3.
