Abstract

The beach chair has a base (1) and an upper portion (3) pivotable to an inclined position about an axis (2). A moving slide (10) is arranged on a bar (9), on each side of the front edges of the upper part (3). This slide provides a guiding and locking mechanism in the desired position. A cylindrical lug (11) of the guiding mechanism is received in a horizontal groove (6) provided in the upper part of the base sides (4). An opening (7) is provided rearwardly, at the back end (E) of the horizontal groove for an additional displacement of the guiding lug (11). The upper edge (12) of the opening (7) does not exceed the distance which corresponds to the shortest distance from the center of the axis (2) to the outer contour of the diameter of the lug (11), when the slide (10) is in the lower final position on the bar (9). In at least one position, the lug (11) gives to the back wall of the upper part (3) a horizontal position. The opening (7) has preferably a cutting (8) shaped as an arc of a circle. The opening (7) and the cutting (8) are reinforced by one or a number of fittings (14, 14', 14'') fixed onto the side (4). The upper part (3) may be provided with a hinged, lockable rest (19), having optionally a foot (20).

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Strandkorb mit einem Standteil und einem um eine Drehachse in eine Schrägstellung schwenkbaren Oberteil, an dessen vorderen Seitenkanten jeweils auf einer Schiene ein beweglicher Schieber angeordnet ist, der eine Führungs- und gegebenenfalls eine Feststelleinrichtung aufweist, wobei ein zylindrisches Führungsglied der Führungseinrichtungen in einer waagerechten in den oberen Seitenteilen des Standteils ausgeführten Führungsnut angeordnet ist.The invention relates to a beach chair with a standing part and an upper part pivotable about an axis of rotation into an inclined position, on the front side edges of which a movable slide is arranged on a rail, which has a guide and optionally a locking device, a cylindrical guide member of the guide devices in a horizontal guide groove is arranged in the upper side parts of the stand part.

Strandkörbe mit einer derartigen Konstruktion sind seit Jahrzehnten, beispielsweise von der Nordsee bekannt. Die Oberteile und damit die Rückwände dieser Strandkörbe lassen sich nur bis etwa 45° nach hinten neigen, d.h. ein Verschwenken in die waagerechte Stellung, die ein beliebiges Liegen im Strandkorb ermöglichen würde, ist nicht möglich.Beach chairs with such a construction have been known for decades, for example from the North Sea. The tops and thus the back walls of these beach chairs can only be tilted back up to about 45 °, i.e. swiveling into the horizontal position, which would allow any lying in the beach chair, is not possible.

Aus dem DE-GM 17 29 368 und aus der DE-PS 908666 sind Liegestrandkörbe mit Horizontaleinstellung bekannt. Hierbei sind die beiden Seitenteile des Standteils, die bogenförmige Führungsschlitze aufweisen, so erheblich nach hinten verlängert, wobei die Führungsschlitze für die Liegeeinstellung der Haube demgemäss ebenfalls erheblich bogenförmig verlängert sind, dass sich ein Verstellwinkel bis zur Waagerechtstellung der Rückwand des Oberteils ergibt. Wegen der notwendigen erheblichen Vergrösserung der Seitenteile, die den Platzbedarf eines Strandkorbs bei der Lagerung ausserhalb der Saison erheblich vergrössert und wegen der erhöhten Materialaufwendungen, die den Korb zusätzlich verteuern und schwerer machen, so dass sie nicht von einer Person getragen werden können, was bei Sturmfluten aber notwendig ist, haben sich derartige Strandkörbe mit bogenförmigen Kurvenbahnen überhaupt nicht durchgesetzt. Man baute überwiegend Strandkörbe mit beweglichem Schieber und waagerechter Führungsnut, da damit die Seitenteile vergleichsweise klein, stabil und leicht gehalten werden können, ausserdem sind sie fertigungsgerechter.From DE-GM 17 29 368 and from DE-PS 908666 recliners with horizontal adjustment are known. Here, the two side parts of the stand part, which have arc-shaped guide slots, are extended considerably to the rear, the guide slots for the lying adjustment of the hood also being accordingly extended significantly in an arc shape that there is an adjustment angle up to the horizontal position of the rear wall of the upper part. Because of the necessary considerable enlargement of the side parts, which increases the space required for a beach chair when stored out of season, and because of the increased material costs, which make the basket more expensive and heavier, so that it cannot be carried by one person, which is the case with storm surges but is necessary, such beach chairs with arched curved paths have not prevailed at all. They mainly built beach chairs with a movable slider and a horizontal guide groove, as this allows the side parts to be kept comparatively small, stable and light, and they are also more suitable for production.

Aus der FR-PS 383 900 ist ein Strandkorb bekannt, bei dem das Oberteil frei verschwenkbar ist und durch eine Stütze in verschiedenen Schwenkstellungen abgestützt wird.From FR-PS 383 900 a beach chair is known in which the upper part can be freely pivoted and is supported in various pivot positions by a support.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, einen Strandkorb der eingangs genannten Art derart zu verbessern, dass es möglich ist, bei Einhaltung seiner Abmessungen die Rückwand des Oberteils in die waagerechte Liegestellung zu verschwenken.The object of the invention is to improve a beach chair of the type mentioned in such a way that it is possible, while maintaining its dimensions, to pivot the rear wall of the upper part into the horizontal lying position.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäss durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gelöst.According to the invention, this object is achieved by the features of claim 1.

Die Öffnung ermöglicht eine freie Bewegung des aus der Führungsnut austretenden Führungsgliedes so weit, dass die Rückwand des Oberteils in die waagerechte Stellung bewegbar ist, wobei die Abstützung des Oberteils durch Auflage des Führungsgliedes auf dem Rand der Öffnung oder durch Abstützung des Oberteils mittels mindestens einer Stütze erfolgt.The opening enables free movement of the guide member emerging from the guide groove to such an extent that the rear wall of the upper part can be moved into the horizontal position, the upper part being supported by resting the guide member on the edge of the opening or by supporting the upper part by means of at least one support he follows.

In den Unteransprüchen sind vorteilhafte Ausführungen der Erfindung wiedergegeben.Advantageous embodiments of the invention are given in the subclaims.

Die Ausführung gemäss Anspruch 2 ist unter Berücksichtigung, dass der Strandkorboberteil in die Liegestellung von einer Person verstellt wird, zu bevorzugen, da dann bei der Rückstellung in die Sitzstellung kein Problem bei der Einführung des Führungsgliedes in die Führungsnut besteht.The embodiment according to claim 2 is to be preferred, taking into account that the beach chair upper part is adjusted into the lying position by one person, since then there is no problem when inserting the guide member into the guide groove when returning to the sitting position.

Die Ausführung gemäss Anspruch 3 ist die vorteilhafteste, da sie den geringsten Raumbedarf erfordert, die höchste Stabilität wegen der Endlage aller beweglichen Teile und die geringste Schwächung der Seitenoberteile bewirkt, da diese Nut die flachste und kürzeste ist.The embodiment according to claim 3 is the most advantageous, since it requires the least space, the highest stability because of the end position of all moving parts and the least weakening of the side top parts, since this groove is the flattest and shortest.

Da durch die Nut sich der Abstand zum Rand des Seitenteils ändert, wodurch Schwachstellen entstehen, ist eine Verstärkung gemäss den Ansprüchen 4 bis 8 bei häufigem Gebrauch des Strandkorbes vorzusehen, insbesondere da bei einem Verschwenken von einer Seite zusätzlich Torsionskräfte durch die relativ geringe Steifigkeit des Oberteils auftreten können.Since the distance to the edge of the side part changes due to the groove, which creates weak points, a reinforcement according to claims 4 to 8 is to be provided when the beach chair is used frequently, especially since, when pivoted from one side, additional torsional forces due to the relatively low rigidity of the upper part may occur.

Um eine absolute Kippsicherheit zu gewähren, kann der Strandkorboberteil gemäss Anspruch 9 und 10 mit einer Stütze versehen werden.In order to ensure absolute safety against tipping, the upper part of the beach chair can be provided with a support.

Nachstehend wird die Erfindung an Ausführungsbeispielen unter Bezug auf Zeichnungen näher erläutert. Es zeigt:

Ein erfindungsgemäss hergestellter Strandkorb besteht aus einem Standteil 1 und einem um eine Drehachse 2 verschwenkbaren Oberteil 3. Der Standteil 1 weist auf seinen Seitenflächen 4 obere Abschlussleisten 5 auf, in denen jeweils eine waagerechte Führungsnut 6 ausgeführt ist, die am hinteren Ende E in eine Öffnung 7 (Fig. 2a) bzw. eine bogenförmige Nut 8 mündet. An den vorderen Seitenkanten des Oberteils 3 sind Schienen 9 befestigt, auf denen ein Schieber 10, der eine Führungs- und gegebenenfalls auch eine Feststelleinrichtung trägt, verschiebbar angeordnet ist. Die nicht dargestellte Feststelleinrichtung dient zum Festlegen des Strandkorboberteils 3 in verschiedenen Winkelstellungen. Die Führungseinrichtung enthält ein Führungsglied 11 in Form eines zylindrischen Dorns, der in der Führungsnut 6 gleitet. Wenn sich das Korboberteil 3 in seiner steilsten Stellung (in Fig. 1 durch eine ausgezogene Linie dargestellt) befindet, befindet sich der Schieber 10 in seiner oberen Endstellung auf der Schiene 9 und sein Führungsglied 11 liegt am vorderen Ende A der Führungsnut 6 an. Beim Verschwenken in die Schräglage wandert der Schieber 10 auf der Schiene 9 nach unten und das Führungsglied 11 in der Führungsnut 6 nach hinten, bis der Schieber 10 seine untere Endlage erreicht hat, in dieser Stellung befindet sich das Führungsglied 11 auch am hinteren Ende E der Führungsnut 6. Die entsprechende Position des Oberteils 3 ist in Fig. 1 durch eine gestrichelte Linie wiedergegeben. Sie entspricht der maximalen Schräglage eines nicht umgerüsteten bekannten Strandkorbs.A beach chair manufactured according to the invention consists of a stand part 1 and an upper part 3 which can be pivoted about an axis of rotation 2. The stand part 1 has on its side faces 4 upper end strips 5, in each of which a horizontal guide groove 6 is made, which opens at the rear end E into an opening 7 (Fig. 2a) or an arcuate groove 8. Rails 9 are fastened to the front side edges of the upper part 3, on which a slide 10, which carries a guiding device and optionally also a locking device, is arranged displaceably. The locking device, not shown, is used to fix the upper part 3 of the beach chair in different angular positions. The guide device contains a guide member 11 in the form of a cylindrical mandrel which slides in the guide groove 6. When the upper basket part 3 is in its steepest position (represented by a solid line in FIG. 1), the slide 10 is in its upper end position on the rail 9 and its guide member 11 lies against the front end A of the guide groove 6. When pivoting into the inclined position, the slide 10 moves downward on the rail 9 and the guide member 11 in the guide groove 6 backwards until the slide 10 has reached its lower end position, in this position the guide member 11 is also at the rear end E of the Guide groove 6. The corresponding position of the upper part 3 is shown in Fig. 1 by a dashed line. It corresponds to the maximum inclination of a not-converted known beach chair.

Durch die Ausführung der Öffnung 7 bzw. der bogenförmigen Nut 8 im Anschluss an die Führungsnut 6 kann das Oberteil 3 in die in Fig. 1 mit einer strichpunktieren Linie dargestellte Liegestellung verschwenkt werden. Die Öffnung 7 und die bogenförmige Nut 8 können im Rahmen der Beweglichkeit des Schiebers 11 beliebige Formen aufweisen, sofern die Bedingung gewahrt bleibt, dass die obere Kante 12 der Öffnung 7 bzw. der bogenförmigen Nut 8 den Abstand nicht unterschreitet, der dem kürzesten Abstand vom Mittelpunkt der Drehachse 2 bis zum Aussenumfang des Dorns 11 zuzüglich seines Durchmessers bei unterer Endlage des Schiebers 10 auf der Schiene 9 entspricht, d.h. in der Öffnung 7 bzw. der Nut 8 eine kreisbogenförmige Bewegung des Führungsgliedes 11 um die Drehachse 2 als Mittelpunkt während des Weiterverschwenkens des Oberteils 1 in eine waagerechte Lage erfolgt. Die obere Kante 12 der bogenförmigen Nut 8 gemäss Fig. 1 entspricht dieser Grenzbedingung. Die Gestaltung der Öffnung 7 bzw. der bogenförmigen Nut 8 ist unter Einhaltung der obigen Bedingung beliebig, sofern eine zweite Bedingung, dass sie nämlich eine Stellung des Führungsgliedes 11 ein schliesst, die die waagerechte Anordnung des Rückenteils des Oberteils 3 gewährleistet, eingehalten wird. Vorzugsweise bildet diese Stellung eine Endstellung (Fig. 1 und 2), die eine Abstützung des Führungsgliedes 11 ermöglicht. Die Öffnung 7 kann unter diesen Voraussetzungen eine beliebige Form aufweisen, wobei zum leichteren Wiedereinführen des Führungsgliedes 11 in die Führungsnut 6 beispielsweise eine Führung 13 (Fig. 2a), die ein Abgleiten des Führungsgliedes in die Führungsnut 6 beim Rückstellen des Oberteils 3 aus der Liegestellung in eine Schräglage gestattet, vorgesehen werden sollte.By executing the opening 7 or the arcuate groove 8 following the guide groove 6, the upper part 3 can be pivoted into the lying position shown in FIG. 1 with a dash-dotted line. The opening 7 and the arcuate groove 8 can have any shape within the scope of the mobility of the slide 11, provided the condition is met that the upper edge 12 of the opening 7 or the arcuate groove 8 does not fall below the distance which is the shortest distance from the The center of the axis of rotation 2 corresponds to the outer circumference of the mandrel 11 plus its diameter with the lower end position of the slide 10 on the rail 9, ie in the opening 7 or the groove 8, a circular arc-shaped movement of the guide member 11 about the axis of rotation 2 as the center takes place during the further pivoting of the upper part 1 into a horizontal position. The upper edge 12 of the arcuate groove 8 according to FIG. 1 corresponds to this limit condition. The design of the opening 7 or the arcuate groove 8 is arbitrary in compliance with the above condition, provided that a second condition, namely that it includes a position of the guide member 11, which ensures the horizontal arrangement of the back part of the upper part 3, is met. This position preferably forms an end position (FIGS. 1 and 2) which enables the guide member 11 to be supported. Under these conditions, the opening 7 can have any shape, with a guide 13 (FIG. 2a), for example, for easier reintroduction of the guide member 11 into the guide groove 6, which slides the guide member into the guide groove 6 when the upper part 3 is reset from the lying position allowed in an inclined position, should be provided.

Unter der Berücksichtigung, dass das gesamte Oberteil 3 keine grosse Verwindungssteifigkeit aufweist und auf beiden Seiten ein Rückführen des Führungsgliedes 11 in die Führungsnut 6 gewährleistet sein muss, sind grundsätzlich bogenförmige Nuten 8 mit einer lichten Öffnungsweite, die die Grösse des Durchmessers des Führungsgliedes 11 nur unwesentlich überschreitet, vorzuziehen, da diese die beste Führung garantieren.Taking into account that the entire upper part 3 does not have a high torsional stiffness and that a return of the guide member 11 into the guide groove 6 must be ensured on both sides, there are basically arcuate grooves 8 with a clear opening width that the size of the diameter of the guide member 11 is only insignificant is preferable, since they guarantee the best guidance.

Die bevorzugte Ausführungsform der bogenförmigen Nut 8 (Fig. 1) besteht darin, dass sie als Kreisbogenabschnitt mit einer Zentrallinie ausgeführt wird, die durch den Radius R beschrieben ist, der dem Abstand des Mittelpunktes des Führungsg.liedes 11 in der hinteren Endstellung E der Führungsnut 6 vom Mittelpunkt der Drehachse 2 der Oberteils 3 entspricht und dass sie in dem Punkt 'S' endet, der die waagerechte Stellung der Rückwand des Oberteils 3 gewährleistet.The preferred embodiment of the arcuate groove 8 (Fig. 1) is that it is designed as a circular arc section with a central line, which is described by the radius R, the distance from the center of the guide member 11 in the rear end position E of the guide groove 6 corresponds to the center of the axis of rotation 2 of the upper part 3 and that it ends in the point 'S', which ensures the horizontal position of the rear wall of the upper part 3.

Wegen der zusätzlichen Öffnung 7 bzw. der bogenförmigen Nut 8 werden die Abschlussleisten 5 im Vergleich zum bekannten Strandkorb geschwächt. Um diese Schwächung auszugleichen, empfiehlt es sich, die Abschlussleisten 5 durch beliebige einfache oder winklige Beschläge zu verstärken. Vorzugsweise sollen die Beschläge 14 ebenfalls die Öffnung 7 oder die bogenförmige Nut 8 enthalten.Because of the additional opening 7 and the arcuate groove 8, the end strips 5 are weakened compared to the known beach chair. To compensate for this weakening, it is advisable to reinforce the end strips 5 by any simple or angled fittings. The fittings 14 should preferably also contain the opening 7 or the arcuate groove 8.

Die Beschläge 14 werden mittels Befestigungselementen 15 an einer Seite der Abschlussleisten 5 befestigt. Hierzu können Bohrungen in den Beschlägen 14, durch die Schrauben in die Abschlussleisten 5 eingeführt werden, dienen. Zur besseren Versteifung können die Beschläge 14 aus zwei spiegelsymmetrischen Teilen 14' und 14" bestehen und an beiden Seiten jeder Abschlussleiste 5 vorgesehen werden. Die beiden Teile 14' und 14" werden durch durchgehende Schraubverbindungen 16 (Fig. 2b) vorzugsweise durch Buchschrauben 16a miteinander verbunden, wobei in der Abschlüssleiste 5 entsprechende Bohrungen ausgeführt werden. Buchschrauben 16a sind bei der Herstellung von Montagesätzen zu bevorzugen, da dadurch unterschiedliche Stärken der Abschlussleisten ausgeglichen werden können, ohne dass etwas übersteht. Es empfehlen sich auch Rundköpfschrauben und Muttern (s. Fig. 2b).The fittings 14 are fastened to one side of the end strips 5 by means of fastening elements 15. Bores in the fittings 14, through which screws are inserted into the end strips 5, can serve for this purpose. For better stiffening, the fittings 14 can consist of two mirror-symmetrical parts 14 'and 14 "and can be provided on both sides of each end strip 5. The two parts 14' and 14" are connected to one another by continuous screw connections 16 (FIG. 2b), preferably by book screws 16a connected, 5 corresponding holes are made in the end bar. Book screws 16a are to be preferred in the production of assembly kits, since this allows different thicknesses of the end strips to be compensated for without any protrusion. Round-head screws and nuts are also recommended (see Fig. 2b).

Gemäss einem weiteren Ausführungsbeispiel Fig. 2c kann der Beschlag 14 oder einer der beiden Beschlagteile 14', 14" eine abgewinkelte Kante 17 aufweisen, die auf der Oberkante der Abschlussleiste 5 aufliegt und gegebenenfalls auch darauf befestigt werden kann. Gleichfalls kann die Mutter der Schraubverbindung 16 mit der Wand des Beschlags 14 verbunden bzw. in sie integriert sein (Fig. 2c).According to a further exemplary embodiment, FIG. 2c, the fitting 14 or one of the two fitting parts 14 ', 14 "can have an angled edge 17 which rests on the upper edge of the end strip 5 and, if appropriate, can also be fastened thereon. Likewise, the nut of the screw connection 16 connected to the wall of the fitting 14 or integrated into it (Fig. 2c).

Der Beschlag 14 oder einer oder beide Beschlagteile 14', 14" können auch im Bereich der Öffnung 7 bzw. der bogenförmigen Nut 8 ganz oder teilweise die Abschlussleisten 5 durchdringende Vorsprünge 18 aufweisen, die die Auflagefläche für das Führungsglied 11 vergrössern und die Stabilität und Verwindungssteifigkeit erhöhen. Die Vorsprünge 18 des einen Beschlagteils können die Vorsprünge 18 des dazugehörigen Beschlagteils 14" umfassen. Durch diese Verknüpfung der beiden Beschlagteile 14', 14" wird die Stabilität erhöht. Wenn Vorsprünge vorgesehen werden, braucht die Öffnung 7 bzw. die bogenförmige Nut auch nicht so präzise in den Abschlussleisten 5 ausgeführt zu werden.The fitting 14 or one or both fitting parts 14 ', 14 "can also be in the area of Opening 7 or the arcuate groove 8 have projections 18 penetrating the end strips 5 in whole or in part, which increase the contact surface for the guide member 11 and increase the stability and torsional rigidity. The projections 18 of the one fitting part can comprise the projections 18 of the associated fitting part 14 ". This connection of the two fitting parts 14 ', 14" increases the stability. If projections are provided, the opening 7 or the arcuate groove need not be made so precisely in the end strips 5 either.

Der Beschlag 14 kann auch U-förmig (Fig. 2e) mit gleich oder ungleich langen Seitenschenkeln hergestellt sein und so die Abschlussleisten 5 übergreifen, auch dies dient der Stabilität.The fitting 14 can also be made in a U-shape (FIG. 2e) with side legs of the same or different lengths and thus overlap the end strips 5, this also serves for stability.

Im Falle, dass die Standfläche des Standteils 1 uneben oder die Liegestellung des Oberteils 3 erreicht wird, wenn der Dorn 11 sich nicht in einer abgestützten (End-) Lage S (Fig. 1 und 2a) in der bogenförmigen Nut 8 oder der Öffnung 7 befindet, wird das Oberteil 3 mit mindestens einer verschwenkbaren Stütze 19 versehen. Die Stütze 19 kann in verschiedenen Schwenkstellungen durch beliebige bekannte Vorrichtungen, z.B. zwei Rastkränze, fixiert werden, so dass sie bei einer Sitzstellung als Fahnenstange, Kleiderstange oder dergleichen nutzbar ist. Die Stütze 19 kann aus gegeneinander verschieb- und feststellbaren Teilen bestehen, die eine Längenänderung zulassen. Die Stütze 19 kann bei weichem Untergrund zur Vergrösserung ihrer Standfläche mit einem Fuss 20 verbunden sein.In the event that the standing surface of the stand part 1 is uneven or the lying position of the upper part 3 is reached if the mandrel 11 is not in a supported (end) position S (FIGS. 1 and 2a) in the arcuate groove 8 or the opening 7 is located, the upper part 3 is provided with at least one pivotable support 19. The support 19 can be pivoted in various positions by any known means, e.g. two locking rings are fixed so that they can be used as a flag pole, clothes rail or the like in a sitting position. The support 19 can consist of mutually displaceable and lockable parts which allow a change in length. The support 19 can be connected to a foot 20 on a soft surface to enlarge its footprint.

Die Beschläge 14 und die Stütze 19 können aus einem beliebigen Material, wie Metall, Holz, Kunststoff oder Kombinationen daraus ausgeführt werden und damit dem übrigen Material des Strandkorbs auch optisch angepasst werden.The fittings 14 and the support 19 can be made of any material, such as metal, wood, plastic or combinations thereof, and can thus also be optically matched to the remaining material of the beach chair.
