Definitions

  • the invention relates to mobile garden and / or balcony and / or terrace articles, such as sun loungers, garden chairs, garden tables and the like, with at least one relative to a stationary component adjustable component, which is adjustable by means of an actuator.
  • the items in question are not only used in the area of the garden, a balcony or a terrace, but they can also be used in buildings. Such articles are also referred to as outdoor articles. These are usually sitting or lying furniture, but also umbrellas, wind deflectors and awnings are considered.
  • the adjustment of the adjustable component or the adjustable components is usually done manually.
  • the articles are therefore equipped with appropriate fittings, which are designed so that the adjustment takes place in stages.
  • the adjustable components are hinged to two lateral fittings. It may therefore happen that the latching components of an article do not engage in the mutually associated recesses, so that the component to be adjusted gets into a tilted position. It has therefore already been proposed to equip the items in question with suitable electromotive actuators. Do this the adjustment independently of each other by an electric motor, wherein a plurality of electric motors are housed in a common housing.
  • such actuators are structurally complex and therefore costly.
  • the actuators are inadequately protected against ingress of moisture and dusts, partly because the housing geometry of such actuators does not allow sealing. In addition, the actuators are unprotected from other weather conditions.
  • the invention has for its object to make a garden and / or balcony and / or patio articles of the type described in more detail so that the actuator is structurally extremely simple and therefore inexpensive to produce and that it is also designed so that he can be exposed to the weather.
  • the actuator to prevent incorrect operation should always be in operative connection with the component to be adjusted.
  • the actuator is designed as an article-dependent rotation, swivel or linear drive having a housing in which at least one can be driven by a motor speed reducer is arranged.
  • the adjustable components are continuously adjusted. Since the gear members of the actuator is in permanent operative connection with the component to be adjusted of the article, a sudden adjustment over a larger adjustment is excluded.
  • the actuator is either directly or via a rod-like function fitting with the component to be adjusted component of the article in operative connection.
  • the functional fitting can fulfill different tasks. On the one hand, the functional fitting can attack the component to be adjusted at several points, so that the component to be adjusted appears to be stiffened or reinforced.
  • Another task of the function fitting can be the control of a single or several connected movements.
  • one or more components can be moved uniformly, simultaneously or temporally offset from one another.
  • the actuator can adjust several components whose movement sections fulfill different functions and, for example, take place successively.
  • Conceivable would be a first movement section whose Verstellalian are located between a transport position and a user position and realize, for example, the unfolding and folding a table.
  • Another movement section can limit different user positions, for example the range of movement of a backrest.
  • an embodiment of the actuator can be useful as a train and pressure drive.
  • the actuator is designed so that you can switch the actuator in the simplest way when using the article.
  • a rotary drive is such a drive, in which the output member is driven in rotation, while in a pivot drive, the output member about an axis, preferably about a stationary axis, is pivotable.
  • a linear drive is a drive in which the output member exclusively performs a linear movement.
  • Such drives can be designed as tension or pressure drive, that is, in a pressure drive, the component to be adjusted is pushed while it is pulled at a traction drive.
  • the housing of the actuator can be stationarily arranged on the garden items or also move together with a component to be adjusted, for example, be pivoted or moved.
  • the actuator can be designed so that it only generates forces in a first adjustment.
  • the adjustment is directed against gravity, so that a second adjustment is generated by gravity.
  • Some garden items have entrapment hazards within certain movement sections. In such articles, the gravity is advantageously used so that the component to be adjusted passes through this movement section.
  • the motor of the actuator can be acted upon by means of a network-bound auxiliary voltage source with electrical energy. It then eliminates, for example, a change of location, a cable connection that must be made between the engine and a power outlet.
  • the auxiliary voltage source consists of at least one battery which can be charged by means of a charger which can be connected to the mains voltage. The charger could be firmly installed on the item so that charging of the battery (s) can be done by making a cable connection to a power outlet.
  • the auxiliary voltage source could consist of at least one accumulator which can be charged by means of an external charger.
  • the accumulator could then be fixed in the simplest way removable on the article, so that it can be brought to the place of the charger. So that he can be easily removed from the article and also put back, it would be advantageous if the accumulator is fixed by means of a clamping element, a hook and loop fastener of a suspension device or the like on the article.
  • a clamping element or of Velcro fasteners has the advantage that the removal and attachment of the accumulator can be done without tools and without loosening of mechanical fasteners.
  • a non-powered auxiliary power source may be independent of the location of the article.
  • an auxiliary voltage source is preferably arranged on or in the article, on or in the actuator.
  • the required low voltage can be taken via a cable from an energy supplier, such as a mobile energy supplier in the form of a motor vehicle.

  • a display preferably by an optical display in the form of a series of diodes.
  • all diodes of the diode array light up.
  • the diodes will go out one after the other.
  • This auxiliary power supply includes at least a transformer and a rectifier device to reduce the mains voltage to a safety extra-low voltage and also to convert it into a DC voltage.
  • the Beistellnetzteil could also be equipped with a residual current fuse.
  • the motor current circuit has an overcurrent fuse in the form of a fuse or a resettable fuse.
  • the housing of the Beistellnetzerserss should be weatherproof, so there is no disturbance or destruction, for example, if accidentally the article remains in the rainy weather outdoors.
  • the Beistell power supply can also be designed as a plug-in power supply, so that it can be plugged directly into the socket.
  • the motor of the actuating drive can be controlled via a manual switch triggering the respective function.
  • the handset is preferably equipped with push buttons, so that when you press a pushbutton, a contact is closed or opened.
  • This handset should be minimized in terms of dimensions, but not susceptible to interference.
  • the triggered by the handset signals can be transmitted via a control cable, wirelessly or by voice control to the drive motor associated control unit.
  • the handset can be attached depending on the design of the article firmly, it can be stored as a loose component and thus at any point, but it can also be used in a holder. As a loose component, it is particularly advantageous if the triggered signals are transmitted wirelessly.
  • the handset could be referred to as a remote control in this case.
