Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft das Gebiet der Sitzmöbel, insbesondere eine Rückenlehne für einen Büro-Stuhl, bei welchem in einem Rahmen eine Membran aufgespannt ist.The invention relates to the field of seating, in particular a backrest for an office chair in which a membrane is stretched in a frame is.
Es ist bekannt, bei Bürostühlen die Lehne an den Lehnenträger derart anzubinden, dass sie möglichst allen Bewegungen des Rückens des Benutzers zu folgen vermag. Technisch heißt das, dass die Lehne kardanisch gelagert, also um die drei Raumachsen beweglich ist. Damit kann sie sagittalen Bewegungen des Rückens , also Bewegungen um eine Horizontalachse parallel zum Körper, aber auch Torsionsbewegungen und Transveralbewegungen, also Bewegungen um die Vertikalachse bzw. um eine Horizontalachse senkrecht zum Körper, folgen. Derartige kombinierte Oberkörperbewegungen in drei Richtungen kommen in der Praxis sehr häufig vor, zum Beispiel beim Griff seitlich unten in die Schublade eines Schreibtisches, oder beim Hinwenden zu einem Gesprächspartner. Kardanische Lager für Lehnen bei Stühlen werden auch als "dorsokinetisch flexible Gelenke" bezeichnet. It is known, in the case of office chairs, to have the backrest on the backrest support in this way to tie up as much as possible all movements of the user's back is able to follow. Technically, this means that the backrest is gimbal-mounted, that is around the three spatial axes. It can do sagittal movements of the back, i.e. movements around a horizontal axis parallel to the body, but also torsional movements and transversal movements, i.e. movements about the vertical axis or about a horizontal axis perpendicular to the body, consequences. Such combined upper body movements in three directions occur very often in practice, for example with the handle on the side at the bottom Drawer of a desk, or when turning to one Interlocutor. Cardanic bearings for armrests are also called called "dorsokinetically flexible joints".
Ein Stuhl der geschilderten Art ist z.B. aus EP 0308538 A bekannt. Bei diesem bekannten Stuhl wird die kardanische Lagerung dadurch erreicht, dass die Lehne eine kugelsegmentförmige Ausformung aufweist, die in einer zweiten kugelsegmentförmigen Ausformung am Lehnenträger gelagert ist. Der Mittelpunkt, um den sich die Lehne bewegen kann, liegt an der Polsteroberfläche. Seitlich und oberhalb und unterhalb des Kardangelenkes sind Federelemente zwischen Lehne und Lehnenträger vorgesehen, z. B. elastische Polyester-Elemente, die Federkräfte sowohl senkrecht als auch parallel zur Lehnenfläche ausüben.A chair of the type described is e.g. known from EP 0308538 A. With this known chair, the gimbal is achieved in that the backrest has a spherical segment-shaped formation, which in a second spherical segment shape is mounted on the backrest support. The The center point around which the backrest can move is on the upholstery surface. There are spring elements on the sides and above and below the universal joint provided between the backrest and backrest support, for. B. elastic polyester elements, the spring forces both perpendicular and parallel to the backrest surface exercise.
Dieser bekannte Stuhl bietet zwar einen hervorragenden Sitzkomfort, bedingt aber einen gewissen Aufwand bei seiner Herstellung.This well-known chair offers excellent seating comfort, conditionally but some effort in its manufacture.
Ein anderer Stuhl mit kardanisch gelagerter Lehne ist bekannt aus EP 0935934 A. Die kardanische Lagerung wird dort mittels eines kreiszylindrischen gummielastischen Elementes erreicht, an dessen zwei Stirnseiten jeweils eine Stahlplatte anvulkanisiert ist, die mit der Lehne bzw. dem Lehnenträger durch Schrauben verbunden ist. Der Benutzer kann damit die Lehne gegen die Federkräfte des gummielastischen Elementes bewegen. Zusätzlich kann noch der Lehnenträger gegen eine Rückholfeder nach hinten gedrückt werden. An seiner Benutzeroberfläche ist das Polster prinzipiell steif ausgeführt und im Bereich des Gummilagers geknickt.Another chair with a gimbal backrest is known from EP 0935934 A. The gimbal is there by means of a circular cylindrical rubber-elastic element reached, on its two A steel plate is vulcanized on the end faces, which is connected to the backrest or the Backrest support is connected by screws. The user can use it Move the backrest against the spring forces of the rubber-elastic element. In addition, the backrest support can be moved backwards against a return spring be pressed. The cushion is basically rigid on its user interface executed and kinked in the area of the rubber bearing.
Dieser bekannte Stuhl ,weist zwar den Vorteil auf, dass das Kardanlager weniger Einzelteile umfasst, und damit kostengünstiger herstellbar ist. Durch die konventionelle Gestaltung der Benutzeroberfläche des Lehnenpolsters wird aber keine optimale Stützung des Rückens des Benutzers erzielt: Ferner ist auch die Anlenkung des Lehnenträgers an der Stuhlsäule und die Anbindung an eine Rückholfeder sehr aufwendig und damit kostenungünstig. Schließlich ist es auch nachteilig, dass das gummielastische Lager keinen Abreißschutz bietet: wenn sich die an das gummielastische Element anvulkanisierten Platten lösen sollten, fällt die Lehne vom Lehnenträger ab. This known chair has the advantage that the gimbal bearing less Includes individual parts, and is therefore cheaper to manufacture. Through the conventional design of the user interface of the backrest cushion optimal support of the back of the user is not achieved: Furthermore, the Linking the backrest support to the chair column and connecting to a Return spring very complex and therefore inexpensive. After all, it is disadvantageous that the rubber-elastic bearing offers no tear-off protection: if the plates vulcanized to the rubber-elastic element should come loose, the backrest falls off the backrest support.
Ein anderer Stuhl der genannten Art ist bekannt aus DE 100 48 779 A1: Bei diesem Stuhl ist die Rückenlehne als Rahmen mit einer darin aufgespannten Membran ausgebildet. Der Rahmen besteht aus zwei im wesentlichen vertikal verlaufenden Seitenteilen, und einem oberen und einem unteren, die beiden Seitenteile verbindenden Quersteg. Am unteren Quersteg ist der Rahmen über ein dorsokinetisch flexibles Gelenk am oberen Teil eines Lehnenträgers aufgehängt, der aus Aluminium besteht und mit seinem gabelförmigen unteren Teil an der Neigungsmechanik angelenkt ist.Another chair of the type mentioned is known from DE 100 48 779 A1: Bei this chair is the backrest as a frame with one stretched in it Membrane formed. The frame consists of two essentially vertical trending side panels, and an upper and a lower, the two Crosspiece connecting side parts. The frame is over on the lower crosspiece a dorsokinetically flexible joint on the upper part of a backrest support suspended, which is made of aluminum and with its fork-shaped lower Part is hinged to the tilt mechanism.
Obwohl dieser Stuhl ein sehr hohes Maß an Sitzkomfort bietet, ist auch er herstellungstechnisch relativ aufwendig, und kann auch hinsichtlich der dorsokinetischen Abstützung der Lendenwirbel-Lordose noch weiter optimiert werden.Although this chair offers a very high level of seating comfort, it is also relatively expensive to manufacture, and can also in terms of dorsokinetic support of the lumbar spine lordosis further optimized become.
Es ist daher die Aufgabe der Erfindung, eine Rückenlehne der in DE 100 48 779 A1 beschriebenen Art derart weiterzubilden, dass sie einerseits dem Rücken des Benutzers bei allen möglichen Bewegungen, sei es sagittal, transversal oder tordierend, optimale Stützung bietet, andererseits aber dennoch kostengünstig herstellbar ist, insbesondere für große Stückzahlen ein Minimum an Herstellungsaufwand erfordert. Dennoch soll aber selbstverständlich auch eine hohe Stabilität der Konstruktion im robusten Alltagsbetrieb gewährleistet sein. Schließlich soll die erfindungsgemäße Rückenlehne auch ästhetisch, unter den Kriterien des industriellen Designs, eine optimale Lösung darstellen.It is therefore the object of the invention to provide a backrest in DE 100 48 779 A1 described type in such a way that they on the one hand the user's back in all possible movements, be it sagittal, transversal or twisting, provides optimal support, but on the other hand nevertheless is inexpensive to manufacture, especially for large quantities, a minimum requires manufacturing effort. Nevertheless, of course, should also a high stability of the construction in robust everyday operation is guaranteed his. Finally, the backrest according to the invention should also be aesthetically pleasing the criteria of industrial design, represent an optimal solution.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 und der Unteransprüche gelöst.This object is achieved by the features of claim 1 and Subclaims resolved.
Der Kern der Erfindung ist die Idee, den Rahmen mit dem Lehnenträger einstückig zu verbinden, also Rahmen und Lehnenträger als einstückiges Bauteil auszuführen. Vorzugsweise soll dieses Bauteil ein Spritzgussteil aus einem glasfaserverstärkten Polyamid-Kunststoff, vorzugsweise einem Polyarylamid, sein, und.durch Gas-Injektionstechnik (GIT) hergestellt werden, wodurch sich weitgehend hohle Einzelteile herstellen lassen.The essence of the invention is the idea of the frame with the backrest support to be connected in one piece, i.e. frame and backrest support as a one-piece component perform. This component should preferably be an injection molded part from a glass fiber reinforced polyamide plastic, preferably a polyarylamide, be, and. manufactured by gas injection technology (GIT), whereby largely hollow parts can be made.
Mit der erfindungsgemäßen Konstruktion wird erreicht, dass die Rückenlehne einerseits die Membran optimale Stützungskräfte für den Rücken des Benutzers entfalten lässt, andererseits aber in eleganter Weise und technisch kostengünstig und stabil eine kardano-elastische Verbindung zwischen Lehne und Lehnenträger bewirkt.With the construction according to the invention it is achieved that the backrest on the one hand, the membrane provides optimal support for the back of the user lets unfold, but on the other hand in an elegant way and technically inexpensive and stable a cardano-elastic connection between the backrest and backrest support causes.
Die Erfindung macht es auch möglich, die Rückenlehne samt Lehnenträger als Sichtteil, also ohne besondere Verkleidung, auszubilden, was nicht nur die Zahl der Einzelteile und damit den Herstellaufwand reduziert, sondern auch gestalterisch prägt und einen hohen Wiedererkennungswert realisiert.The invention also makes it possible to use the backrest together with the backrest support Form visible part, i.e. without special cladding, which is not just the number the individual parts and thus the manufacturing effort, but also reduced design and realizes a high recognition value.
Auch die Zahl der konstruktiven Elemente der erfindungsgemäßen Rückenlehne ist auf ein Minimum reduziert, und drückt damit den Herstellaufwand. Durch die weitgehend hohlen Kunststoffteile wird ein sehr niedriges Gewicht erzielt. Dabei verfügt die erfindungsgemäße Rückenlehne aber dennoch über ein ganz besonders hohes Maß an Stabillität, denn ein unter Gewalteinwirkung erfolgendes Abreißen der Lehne vom Träger ist wegen der einstückigen Ausführung ersichtlich nicht mehr möglich. Ferner verfügt die erfindungsgemäße Rückenlehne bei der gewählten Dimensionierung und dem gewählten Kunststoff über eine sehr hohe Steifigkeit und Widerstandsfähigkeit gegenüber mechanischer Beanspruchung.The number of structural elements of the backrest according to the invention is reduced to a minimum, thus reducing production costs. Through the largely hollow plastic parts, a very low weight is achieved. there the backrest according to the invention still has a whole particularly high level of stability, because one under the influence of violence The backrest is torn off the carrier because of the one-piece Execution obviously no longer possible. Furthermore, the invention Backrest with the chosen dimensions and the chosen plastic very high rigidity and resistance to mechanical stress.
Gegenüber der dorsokinetisch flexiblen Aufhängung der Lehne an einem Aluminiumträger hat die erfindungsgemäße Rückenlehne den weiteren Vorteil, dass ergonomisch erwünschte elastische Abstützungskräfte für den Rücken des Benutzers auch vom Lehnenträger beigesteuert werden, während der Aluminiumträger starr ist. Compared to the dorsokinetically flexible suspension of the backrest on one Aluminum backing has the further advantage of the backrest according to the invention, that ergonomically desired elastic support forces for the back of the Users also contribute from the backrest support during the Aluminum beam is rigid.
