Figures 1 et 2 sont des vues en perspective illustrant la structure pivotante réversible suivant la présente invention en position transat.Figures 1 and 2 are perspective views illustrating the reversible pivoting structure according to the present invention in the transat position.
Figures 3 et 4 sont des vues en perspective montrant la structure pivotante réversible suivant la présente invention en position hamac.Figures 3 and 4 are perspective views showing the reversible pivot structure according to the present invention in hammock position.
Figures 5 et 6 sont des vues de coté représentant respectivement la structure pivotante réversible suivant la présente invention en position transat et en position hamac.Figures 5 and 6 are side views respectively showing the reversible pivoting structure according to the present invention in the transat position and hammock position.
On a montré en figures 1 à 4 une structure pivotante réversible 1 permettant suivant sa position angulaire de présenter soit un siège de type transat soit un hamac. La structure pivotante 1 est constituée de deux embases 2, 3 destinées à venir en contact avec le sol et comportant respectivement, à titre d'exemple, un profilé 4 de forme courbe solidaire d'une traverse horizontale 5 reliant chaque extrémité dudit profilé.
Les embases 2, 3 peuvent présenter une forme quelconque sans pour cela changer l'objet de la présente invention. Les embases 2, 3 peuvent être symétriques et positionnées l'une en face de l'autre de manière que les traverses horizontales 5 soient en vis à vis. Les embases 2, 3 sont reliées entre elles par l'intermédiaire d'un axe horizontal 6 venant se fixer dans chaque traverse 5 et au milieu de ces dernières.FIGS. 1 to 4 show a reversible pivoting structure 1 enabling, according to its angular position, to present either a transat type seat or a hammock. The pivoting structure 1 consists of two bases 2, 3 intended to come into contact with the ground and comprising respectively, by way of example, a profile 4 of curved shape secured to a horizontal cross member 5 connecting each end of said profile. The bases 2, 3 can have any shape without changing the object of the present invention. The bases 2, 3 can be symmetrical and positioned opposite each other so that the horizontal crosspieces 5 are facing each other. The bases 2, 3 are interconnected via a horizontal axis 6 to be fixed in each crossbar 5 and in the middle thereof.
Egalement, les embases 2, 3 sont reliées par une barre horizontale 7 venant se fixer dans chaque profilé 4 juste au dessus des traverses 5 de manière à rigidifier l'ensemble de la structure 1.Also, the bases 2, 3 are connected by a horizontal bar 7 which is fixed in each profile 4 just above the crosspieces 5 so as to stiffen the entire structure 1.
D'autre part, il peut être prévu à l'opposé de la barre 7 une autre barre horizontale 18 semblable à la première pour empêcher toute déformation et désolidarisation des embases 2, 3 de la structure 1.On the other hand, it can be provided opposite the bar 7 another horizontal bar 18 similar to the first to prevent any deformation and separation of the bases 2, 3 of the structure 1.
La structure pivotante 1 comporte entre les embases 2, 3 un premier cadre 8 qui est constitué de deux traverses parallèles 9, 10 reliées entre elles à l'une de leur s extrémités par une barre 11 , tandis que lesdites traverses coopèrent à l'opposé de la barre 11 avec l'axe horizontal 6. Ainsi, le premier cadre 8 peut pivoter librement autour de l'axe horizontal 6 et présenter différentes positions angulaires entre les embases 2, 3.The pivoting structure 1 comprises between the bases 2, 3 a first frame 8 which consists of two parallel crosspieces 9, 10 interconnected at one of their ends by a bar 11, while said cross members cooperate on the opposite side of the bar 11 with the horizontal axis 6. Thus, the first frame 8 can rotate freely about the horizontal axis 6 and have different angular positions between the bases 2, 3.
La structure pivotante 1 comporte entre les embases 2, 3 un second cadre 12 qui est constitué de deux traverses parallèles 13, 14 reliées entre elles à l'une de leurs extrémités par une barre 15, tandis que lesdites traverses coopèrent à l'opposé de la barre 15 avec l'axe horizontal 6. Ainsi, le second cadre 12 peut pivoter librement autour de l'axe horizontal 6 et présenter différentes positions angulaires entre les embases 2, 3. Le second cadre 12 est prévu de dimensions légèrement inférieures à celles du premier cadre 8 pour pouvoir lors de rotations autour de l'axe horizontal 6 venir se loger à l'intérieur du premier cadre 8 lorsque lesdits cadres se trouvent dans un même plan. La structure pivotante 1 comporte des moyens de retenue et de blocage 19 solidaires des embases 2, 3 et permettant de maintenir et de bloquer les premiers et seconds cadres 8 et 12 dans des positions déterminées l'un par rapport à l'autre afin que ladite structure puisse se transformer soit en transat, soit en hamac.The pivoting structure 1 comprises between the bases 2, 3 a second frame 12 which consists of two parallel crosspieces 13, 14 interconnected at one of their ends by a bar 15, whereas said cross members cooperate in opposition to each other. the bar 15 with the horizontal axis 6. Thus, the second frame 12 can rotate freely about the horizontal axis 6 and have different angular positions between the bases 2, 3. The second frame 12 is provided slightly smaller dimensions than those the first frame 8 to be rotated about the horizontal axis 6 come to be housed inside the first frame 8 when said frames are in the same plane. The pivoting structure 1 comprises retaining and locking means 19 integral with the bases 2, 3 and making it possible to hold and block the first and second frames 8 and 12 in determined positions with respect to each other so that said structure can be transformed into a deckchair or a hammock.
La structure pivotante 1 comporte une toile unique 16 qui permet de former soit l'assise d'un transat (figures 1 , 2) soit le couchage d'un hamac (figures 3, 4) en fonction de la position des premiers et seconds cadres 8, 12 l'un part rapport à l'autre et par rapport aux embases 2, 3.The pivoting structure 1 comprises a single fabric 16 which makes it possible to form either the seat of a lounger (FIGS. 1, 2) or the laying of a hammock (FIGS. 3, 4) according to the position of the first and second frames 8, 12 relative to each other and relative to the bases 2, 3.
La toile 16 comporte des moyens de fixation 17 permettant un montage et un démontage facile et rapide pour permettre la transformation de la structure pivotante 1.
Les moyens de fixation 17 peuvent être, de manière non limitative, constitués soit de crochets, soit de liens élastiques, soit d'entretoises se logeant respectivement dans un fourreau ménagé à chaque extrémité de la toile unique 16. En position transat, les cadres 8 et 12 sont disposés et retenus dans un même plan qui est incliné et dirigé dans une direction opposée à celle où se trouve la barre horizontale 7 reliant les embases 2, 3 (figures 1, 2).The fabric 16 includes fastening means 17 for quick and easy assembly and disassembly to allow the transformation of the pivoting structure 1. The fastening means 17 may be, in a nonlimiting manner, consist of either hooks or elastic links, or spacers housed respectively in a sheath formed at each end of the single web 16. In the transat position, the frames 8 and 12 are arranged and retained in the same plane which is inclined and directed in a direction opposite to that which is the horizontal bar 7 connecting the bases 2, 3 (Figures 1, 2).
Les cadres 8 et 12 sont immobilisés dans cette position inclinée par l'intermédiaire de moyens de retenue et de blocage 19 prévus sur chaque embase 2, 3.The frames 8 and 12 are immobilized in this inclined position by means of retaining and locking means 19 provided on each base 2, 3.
Dans cette position, on constate que le second cadre 12 vient se loger à l'intérieur du premier cadre 8 de manière que les barres horizontales 11 et 15 se trouvent à proximité l'une de l'autre.In this position, it is found that the second frame 12 is housed inside the first frame 8 so that the horizontal bars 11 and 15 are close to one another.
Les moyens de retenue et de blocage 19 sont constitués, à titre d'exemple, d'une série de taquets coulissants 20 solidaires des traverses des cadres 8, 12 et venant se bloquer dans des encoches 21 ménagées dans chaque embase 2, 3. Les moyens de retenue et de blocage 19 permettent de retenir en même temps les deux cadres 8 et 12 dans une même position inclinée (figure 5).The retaining and locking means 19 consist, for example, of a series of sliding lugs 20 secured to the cross members of the frames 8, 12 and coming to lock in notches 21 formed in each base 2, 3. retaining and locking means 19 allow to retain both frames 8 and 12 in the same inclined position (Figure 5).
Egalement, dans cette position de transat, la toile 16 est fixée par l'intermédiaire des moyens de fixation 17 d'une part sur la barre horizontale 11 du premier cadre 8 en ce qui concerne sa première extrémité et d'autre part sur l'axe horizontal 6 reliant les embases 2, 3 en passant au préalable autour de la barre horizontale 7 en ce qui concerne sa seconde extrémité opposée.Also, in this transat position, the fabric 16 is fixed by means of the fixing means 17 on the one hand on the horizontal bar 11 of the first frame 8 with regard to its first end and on the other hand on the horizontal axis 6 connecting the bases 2, 3 before passing around the horizontal bar 7 with respect to its opposite second end.
Ainsi, l'assise du transat est constituée par le pan de toile 16 qui est compris entre les barres horizontales 11 et 7 de la structure pivotante 1.Thus, the seat of the lounger is formed by the fabric panel 16 which is between the horizontal bars 11 and 7 of the pivoting structure 1.
En position hamac, le premier cadre 8 est disposé et retenu en appui contre la barre horizontale 18, tandis que le second cadre 12 est disposé et retenu en appui contre la barre horizontale 7. La transformation de la structure 1 d'une position de transat à une position de hamac est obtenue en premier lieu après le démontage de la toile 16 et en second lieu par le pivotement des cadres 8, 12 autour de l'axe horizontal 6 et l'immobilisation desdits cadres dans leurs positions déterminées par les moyens de retenue et de blocage 22 et 23 prévus sur chaque cadre.In hammock position, the first frame 8 is disposed and held in abutment against the horizontal bar 18, while the second frame 12 is disposed and held in abutment against the horizontal bar 7. The transformation of the structure 1 of a transat position at a hammock position is obtained firstly after the disassembly of the fabric 16 and secondly by pivoting the frames 8, 12 about the horizontal axis 6 and the immobilization of said frames in their positions determined by the means of retaining and locking 22 and 23 provided on each frame.
Pour obtenir le pivotement des cadres 8 et 12, il est nécessaire de déverrouiller les moyens de retenue et de blocage 19 pour libérer les premiers et seconds cadres 8, 12 afin que ces derniers puissent pivoter autour de l'axe horizontal 6 et venir respectivement en appui contre les barres horizontales 18 et 7 (figure 6).To obtain the pivoting of the frames 8 and 12, it is necessary to unlock the retaining and locking means 19 to release the first and second frames 8, 12 so that the latter can pivot about the horizontal axis 6 and come respectively into support against the horizontal bars 18 and 7 (figure 6).
Ainsi, le premier cadre 8 vient prendre appui sur la barre horizontale 18 reliant les embases 2, 3 et immobilisé dans cette position par des moyens de retenue et de blocage qui sont, par exemple, constitués par des crochets 22 pivotant autour de dudit cadre 8 pour venir s'accrocher sur la barre horizontale 18.
Le second cadre 12 vient prendre appui sur la barre horizontale 7 reliant les embases 2, 3 et immobilisé dans cette position par des moyens de retenue et de blocage qui sont, par exemple, constitués par des crochets 23 pivotant autour de dudit cadre 12 pour venir s'accrocher sur la barre horizontale 7.Thus, the first frame 8 comes to bear on the horizontal bar 18 connecting the bases 2, 3 and immobilized in this position by retaining and locking means which are, for example, constituted by hooks 22 pivoting around said frame 8 to hang on the horizontal bar 18. The second frame 12 is supported on the horizontal bar 7 connecting the bases 2, 3 and immobilized in this position by retaining and locking means which are, for example, constituted by hooks 23 pivoting around said frame 12 to come hang on the horizontal bar 7.
Il va de soi que les moyens de retenue et de blocage 22 et 23 prévus sur les premiers et seconds cadres 8 et 12 peuvent être différents sans pour cela changer l'objet de la présente inventionIt goes without saying that the retaining and locking means 22 and 23 provided on the first and second frames 8 and 12 may be different without changing the object of the present invention.
En position hamac, on note que le second cadre 12 est disposé et retenu dans un plan qui est incliné et dirigé dans une direction opposée à celle où se trouve le premier cadre 8. Egalement en position hamac la position inclinée du premier cadre 8 est différente de celle prévue en position transat de la structure pivotante 1 (figures 3, 4).In the hammock position, it is noted that the second frame 12 is arranged and retained in a plane that is inclined and directed in a direction opposite to that where the first frame 8 is located. Also in the hammock position, the inclined position of the first frame 8 is different. of that provided in the transat position of the pivoting structure 1 (Figures 3, 4).
Egalement, dans cette position de hamac, la toile 16 est fixée par l'intermédiaire des moyens de fixation 17 d'une part sur la barre horizontale 11 du premier cadre 8 en ce qui concerne sa première extrémité et d'autre part sur la barre horizontale 15 du second cadre 12 en ce qui concerne sa seconde extrémité opposée.Also, in this hammock position, the fabric 16 is fixed by means of the attachment means 17 on the one hand on the horizontal bar 11 of the first frame 8 with respect to its first end and on the other hand on the bar horizontal 15 of the second frame 12 with respect to its opposite second end.
On remarque que la transformation de la structure 1 d'une position de transat à une position de hamac et inversement est obtenue après le démontage de la toile 16 et le pivotement des cadres 8, 12 autour de l'axe horizontal 6 et l'immobilisation desdits cadres dans leurs positions déterminées par les moyens de retenue et de blocage 19 ; 22 et 23.Note that the transformation of the structure 1 from a transat position to a hammock position and vice versa is obtained after disassembly of the fabric 16 and the pivoting of the frames 8, 12 around the horizontal axis 6 and the immobilization said frames in their positions determined by the retaining and locking means 19; 22 and 23.
On note que le longueur de la toile unique 16 est suffisante en fonction de sa disposition entre les points d'attache pour réaliser soit une assise en position transat, soit un couchage en position hamac.Note that the length of the single fabric 16 is sufficient depending on its arrangement between the attachment points to achieve either a seat in the transat position or a bed in hammock position.
On constate que le profil des premiers et seconds cadres 8, 12 recevant la toile unique 16 peut être de forme quelconque sans pour cela changer l'objet de la présente invention.It is noted that the profile of the first and second frames 8, 12 receiving the single fabric 16 may be of any shape without changing the object of the present invention.
II doit d'ailleurs être entendu que la description qui précède n'a été donnée qu'à titre d'exemple et qu'elle ne limite nullement le domaine de l'invention dont on ne sortirait pas en remplaçant les détails d'exécution décrits par tout autre équivalent.
It must also be understood that the foregoing description has been given only by way of example and that it does not limit the scope of the invention which can not be overcome by replacing the details of execution described. by any other equivalent.
