Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Stuhl mit einem Sitzträger, einer Sitzplatte, die eine vordere, unbeweglich mit dem Sitzträger verbundene Teilplatte und eine hintere, um eine horizontale, querverlaufende Achse verschwenkbar mit der vorderen verbundene Teilplatte umfaßt, mit mindestens einem elastischen Kraftspeicher, der die hintere Teilplatte nach oben zu verschwenken sucht, und mit einer Lehne, die bei einer Neigung der hinteren Teilplatte ebenfalls geneigt wird.The invention relates to a chair with a seat support, a seat plate, which comprises a front, immovably connected to the seat support part plate and a rear, pivotable about a horizontal, transverse axis with the front connected part plate, with at least one elastic energy accumulator, which the rear part plate seeks to pivot upwards, and with a backrest that is also inclined when the rear partial plate is inclined.

Ein solcher Stuhl ist aus der US-A-1 836 630 bekannt. Bei diesem Stuhl sind die hintere Teilplatte und die Lehne starr miteinander verbunden, so daß es nicht möglich ist, eine bei unterschiedlicher Neigung der jeweiligen Körperhaltung angepaßte Sitzposition einzunehmen.Such a chair is known from US-A-1 836 630. In this chair, the rear partial plate and the backrest are rigidly connected to one another, so that it is not possible to adopt a sitting position that is adapted to the different posture of the respective posture.

Ein anatomisch richtiges Sitzen ermöglicht dagegen ein Stuhl, wie er in der DE-A-2 822 574 beschrieben ist. Bei diesem Stuhl kann die Neigung der beiden Teilplat-daß beim aufrechten Sitzen das Becken eine wirksame Unterstützung durch die hintere Teilplatte erhält, während beim zurückgeneigten Sitzen die hintere Teilfläche abgesenkt wird und somit vom Sitzenden nicht als störend empfunden wird.Anatomically correct sitting, on the other hand, enables a chair as described in DE-A-2 822 574. In this chair, the inclination of the two partial plates - that the pelvis receives effective support when sitting upright - is supported by the rear partial plate, while the rear partial surface is lowered when sitting back and is therefore not perceived as annoying by the seated person.

In der Praxis hat es sich jedoch herausgestellt, daß zur Verwirklichung dieser sehr vorteilhaften Konstruktion ein erheblicher mechanischer Aufwand getrieben werden muß, durch den einerseits unter der Sitzfläche ein erhöhter Platzbedarf für die Teile des Verschwenkmechanismus entsteht und durch den andererseits die Herstellungskosten eines solchen Stuhles außerordent-lich hoch sind.In practice, however, it has been found that in order to achieve this very advantageous construction, considerable mechanical effort must be incurred, which, on the one hand, results in an increased space requirement for the parts of the pivoting mechanism under the seat surface, and on the other hand, the manufacturing costs of such a chair are extremely high. are high.

Es ist Aufgabe der Erfindung einen Stuhl vorzuschlagen, der einerseits ein anatomisch günstiges Sitzverhalten ermöglicht, welcher aber andererseits mit einfachen konstruktiven Mitteln und insbesondere einem geringeren Platzbedarf unterhalb der Sitzfläche herstellbar ist.It is the object of the invention to propose a chair which, on the one hand, enables an anatomically favorable seating behavior, but which on the other hand can be produced using simple constructional means and in particular requires less space below the seat.

Diese Aufgabe wird gemäß der Erfindung durch einen Stuhl der eingangs beschriebenen Art gelöst, der gekennzeichnet ist durch einen schwenkbar mit dem Sitzträger verbundenen, von dem elastischen Kraftspeicher beaufschlagten und eine Lehne tragenden Stützarm, der die hintere Teilplatte über einen Lenker abstützt und unterhalb der Sitzplatte zwischen der schwenkbaren Lagerung der hinteren Teilplatte und dem Lenker am Sitzträger gelagert ist.This object is achieved according to the invention by a chair of the type described at the outset, which is characterized by a pivotally connected to the seat support, acted upon by the elastic energy accumulator and supporting a backrest, which supports the rear partial plate via a handlebar and underneath the seat plate between the pivotable mounting of the rear plate and the handlebar is mounted on the seat support.

Bei einer solchen Konstruktion fällt gegenüber dem in der DE-A-2 822 574 beschriebenen Stuhl die Lagerung der vorderen Sitzfläche am Sitzträger weg, ferner ist es nicht mehr notwendig, die vordere Teilplatte am Stützarm abzustützen, es werden also auch die diesbezüglichen Lenker eingespart. Dadurch wird die Gesamtkonstruktion wesentlich vereinfacht, insbesondere im vorderen Bereich des Stuhles müssen keine Teile des Bewegungsmechanismus mehr angeordnet werden. Dadurch läßt sich ein solcher Stuhl weiterhin auch preisgünstiger herstellen.With such a construction, the bearing of the front seat on the seat support is eliminated compared to the chair described in DE-A-2 822 574, furthermore it is no longer necessary to support the front partial plate on the support arm, so that the handlebars in this regard are also saved. This considerably simplifies the overall construction, in particular in the front area of the chair, there is no longer any need to arrange parts of the movement mechanism. As a result, such a chair can also be manufactured more cheaply.

Bei einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist vorgesehen, daß der Stützarm mittels einer Rasteinrichtung in verschiedenen Winkelstellungen fixierbar ist. Dabei ist es günstig, wenn eine Rastpatrone einerseits am Sitzträger und andererseits am Stützarm jeweils drehbar gelagert ist und wenn die Rastpatrone einen elastischen Kraftspeicher umfaßt, der den Stützarm in die aufrechte Stellung zu verschieben sucht.In a preferred embodiment it is provided that the support arm can be fixed in different angular positions by means of a latching device. It is advantageous if a locking cartridge is rotatably mounted on the one hand on the seat support and on the other hand on the support arm and if the locking cartridge comprises an elastic energy accumulator that tries to move the support arm into the upright position.

Vorzugsweise weist die Rastpatrone zwei teleskopierend gegeneinander verschiebliche Hälften auf, deren Abstand durch eine federbelastete Raste fixierbar ist; dabei ist im Inneren der Rastpatrone eine die beiden Hälften auseinanderdrückende Feder angeordnet. Eine solche Konstruktion ist besonders vorteilhaft, da sie im hinteren Teil der Sitzfläche zwischen Sitzträger und Stützarm angeordnet werden kann, ohne viel Platz zu benötigen, insbesondere kann die Rastpatrone zwischen zwei Schenkel des Stützarmes eintauchen.The snap-in cartridge preferably has two halves which can be telescopically displaced relative to one another, the spacing of which can be fixed by a spring-loaded catch; a spring that presses the two halves apart is arranged inside the snap-in cartridge. Such a construction is particularly advantageous since it can be arranged in the rear part of the seat between the seat support and the support arm without taking up much space, in particular the snap-in cartridge can be immersed between two legs of the support arm.

Bei einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist vorgesehen, daß unterhalb des Sitzträgers eine die hintere Teilplatte mit einer nach oben gerichteten Kraft beaufschlagende Biegefeder angeordnet ist. Derartige Biegefedern sind konstruktiv weniger aufwendig als beispielsweise Drehstabfedern und ermöglichen somit eine kostengünstige Herstellung eines solchen Stuhles.In a further preferred embodiment it is provided that a spiral spring acting on the rear part plate with an upward force is arranged below the seat support. Such bending springs are structurally less complex than torsion bar springs, for example, and thus enable such a chair to be produced inexpensively.

Dabei ist es vorteilhaft, wenn die Biegefeder in ihrem mittleren Bereich mindestens eine wendelförmige Windung und zwei von dieser ausgehende Arme aufweist, von denen einer an der Unterseite des Sitzträgers, der andere an der Unterseite der hinteren Teilplatte anliegt, und wenn in die Windung eine am Sitzträger gehaltene Abstützfläche hineinragt. Die beiden Arme der Biegefeder verlaufen dabei dicht an der Unterseite der Sitzplatte und benötigen somit nur sehr wenig Raum.It is advantageous if the spiral spring has in its central region at least one helical turn and two arms extending from it, one of which rests on the underside of the seat support, the other on the underside of the rear partial plate, and when one is in the turn Support surface held by the seat support protrudes. The two arms of the spiral spring run close to the underside of the seat plate and therefore take up very little space.

Weiterhin ist es vorteilhaft, wenn der andere Arm der Biegefeder an der Lagerwelle eines Lenkers anliegt, dessen eines Ende schwenkbar an der hinteren Teilplatte und dessen anderes Ende schwenkbar am Stützträger gelagert ist. Durch diese Doppelfunktion der Lagerwelle werden spezielle Abstützglieder für die Biegefeder überflüssig, d.h. die Konstruktion wird weiter vereinfacht.Furthermore, it is advantageous if the other arm of the spiral spring rests on the bearing shaft of a handlebar, one end of which is pivotally mounted on the rear partial plate and the other end of which is pivotally mounted on the support bracket. This double function of the bearing shaft eliminates the need for special support elements for the spiral spring, i.e. the construction is further simplified.

Besonders vorteilhaft ist es, wenn zu beiden Seiten des Sitzträgers je eine Biegefeder angeordnet ist und beide Biegefedern im Bereich ihrer Abstützung am Sitzträger über einen Quersteg miteinarder verbunden sind. Vorzugsweise ist am Sitzträger dabei ein nach beiden Seiten hervorstehender Träger gehalten, dessen Enden jeweils in die Windung einer der beiden Biegefedern hineinragen und die Abstützfläche bilden. Die Montage der Biegefeder kann daher in einfachster Weise so erfolgen, daß die beiden Biegefedern leicht auseinandergebogen werden und daß die Windungen der beiden Biegefedern von außen her über die Enden des Trägers geschoben werden. Es sind dann keine weiteren Fixierungsmittel notwendig.It is particularly advantageous if a spiral spring is arranged on each side of the seat support and both spiral springs are connected to one another in the region of their support on the seat support via a crossbar. A support projecting on both sides is preferably held on the seat support, the ends of which protrude into the winding of one of the two spiral springs and form the support surface. The assembly of the spiral spring can therefore be carried out in the simplest way so that the two spiral springs are slightly bent apart and that the Windings of the two spiral springs are pushed from the outside over the ends of the carrier. No further fixation means are then necessary.

Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Konstruktion ist es weiterhin von Vorteil, daß die Federkraft zur Verschwenkung der hinteren Teilplatte und des Stützarmes auf verschiedene Federn verteilt wird, nämlich auf zwei Biegefedern und die Feder der Rastpatrone. Dadurch können Federn verwendet werden, die nur geringe Abmessungen haben, d.h. durch diese Verteilung der Federkraft auf mehrere Federeinheiten wird der Platzbedarf für den Verschwenkmechanismus unterhalb der Sitzfläche weiter herabgesetzt.In the construction according to the invention, it is also advantageous that the spring force for pivoting the rear part plate and the support arm is distributed over different springs, namely on two spiral springs and the spring of the locking cartridge. This allows springs to be used that are small in size, i.e. this distribution of the spring force over several spring units further reduces the space required for the pivoting mechanism below the seat surface.

Günstig ist es schließlich, wenn dei Träger mindestens auf einer Seite hohl ist und in ihm ein Betätigungshebel zur Höhenverstellung des Sitzträgers angeordnet ist. Diese Integration des Hebels spart weiterhin Platz, so daß insgesamt mit der erfindungsgemäßen Konstruktion ein Stuhl kostengünstig herstellbar ist, der an der Unterseite der Sitzfläche einen optisch wenig ins Gewicht fallenden Verschwenkmechanismus trägt und andererseits trotzdem in vorteilhafter Weise ein anatomisch richtiges Sitzen ermöglicht.Finally, it is expedient if the carrier is hollow at least on one side and an actuating lever for adjusting the height of the seat carrier is arranged in it. This integration of the lever also saves space, so that overall a chair can be produced inexpensively with the construction according to the invention, which carries a pivoting mechanism that is not very important on the underside of the seat surface and on the other hand advantageously enables anatomically correct sitting.

A horizontal end area 10 adjoins the horizontal area 6 of the seat support 5 via an obliquely rising area 9, which is welded to an angle rail 11 running parallel to the front edge of the seat plate. The angle rail 11 lies on the underside of the front partial plate 2 approximately in the middle between the front edge and the rear edge thereof and is connected to the front partial plate 2 by means of screws 12.

Der horizontale Bereich 6 des Sitzträgers 5 trägt unmittelbar hinter der Befestigungsstelle der Tragsäule 7 eine nach oben abstehende Stütze 13, die mit einem Lappen 14 eines Scharniers 15 an der Hinterkante der vorderen Teilplatte 2 verschweißt ist. Der Lappen 14 ist mittels Schrauben 16 an der Unterseite der vorderen Teilplatte 2 so befestigt, daß eine vom Lappen 14 umgriffene Lagerwelle 17 sich unmittelbar hinter der rückwärtigen Kante der Teilplatte 2 parallel erstreckt. Über die am Sitzträger gehaltene Winkelschiene 11 und über den mit der Stütze 13 verbundenen Lappen 14 wird somit die vordere Teilplatte 2 starr am Sitzträger 5 gehalten. Um auch eine stabile Lagerung quer zur Sitzlängsrichtung zu erreichen, erstrecken sich dabei die Winkelschiene 11 und der Lappen 14 etwa über die halbe Breite der Sitzfläche, während der Sitzträger 5 demgegenüber nur eine geringe Breite aufweist (Fig. 2).The horizontal region 6 of the seat support 5 carries, immediately behind the fastening point of the support column 7, an upwardly protruding support 13 which is welded to a flap 14 of a hinge 15 on the rear edge of the front partial plate 2. The tab 14 is fastened by means of screws 16 to the underside of the front partial plate 2 in such a way that a bearing shaft 17 encompassed by the tab 14 extends parallel behind the rear edge of the partial plate 2. The front partial plate 2 is thus held rigidly on the seat support 5 via the angle rail 11 held on the seat support and via the tab 14 connected to the support 13. In order to also achieve a stable mounting transverse to the longitudinal direction of the seat, the angle rail 11 and the tab 14 extend approximately over half the width of the seat surface, while the seat support 5, on the other hand, has only a small width (FIG. 2).

Die Lagerwelle 17 steht seitlich über den Lappen 14 vor, und in diesem Bereich wird die Lagerwelle 17 von Scharnierösen 18 umgeben, die mit zwei flach an der Unterseite der hinteren Teilplatte 3 anliegenden Befestigungsbändern 19 verbunden sind. Diese Befestigungsbänder 19 laufen schräg zur Rückseite der hinteren Teilplatte und zur Mitte derselben und sind mittels Schrauben 20 an der Unterseite der hinteren Teilplatte 3 befestigt, so daß diese am hinteren Ende der vorderen Teilplatte 2 verschwenkbar gelagert ist. Die den Scharnierösen 18 gegenüberliegenden Enden der Befestigungsbänder 19 sind senkrecht nach unten gebogen und bilden je ein Lager 21 für eine horizontale, parallel zur Lagerwelle 17 verlaufende Lagerwelle 22, die in geringem Abstand parallel zur Unterseite der hinteren Teilplatte 3 angeordnet ist.The bearing shaft 17 protrudes laterally over the tab 14, and in this area the bearing shaft 17 is surrounded by hinge eyelets 18 which are connected to two fastening bands 19 lying flat against the underside of the rear partial plate 3. These fastening tapes 19 run obliquely to the rear of the rear partial plate and the center thereof and are fastened by means of screws 20 to the underside of the rear partial plate 3, so that the latter is pivotably mounted at the rear end of the front partial plate 2. The ends of the fastening straps 19 opposite the hinge eyelets 18 are bent vertically downward and each form a bearing 21 for a horizontal bearing shaft 22 which runs parallel to the bearing shaft 17 and is arranged at a small distance parallel to the underside of the rear partial plate 3.

Am hinteren Ende des horizontalen Bereiches 6 des Sitzträgers 5 ist eine parallel zur Lagerwelle 17 verlaufende Lagerwelle 23 starr befestigt, die seitlich über den Sitzträger 5 hervorsteht. Auf dieser Lagerwelle 23 sind zu beiden Seiten des Sitzträgers plattenförmige Stege 24 eines U-förmigen Stützarmes 25 verschwenkbar gelagert, der an seinem der Lagerung abgewandten Ende ein gebogenes, die in der Zeichnung nicht dargestellte Sitzlehne tragendes Rohr 26 trägt. Die Lagerstelle des Stützarmes 25 befindet sich dabei etwa zwischen der durch die Lagerwelle 17 definierten senkrechten Ebene und zwischen der durch die Lagerwelle 22 definierten senkrechten Ebene.At the rear end of the horizontal region 6 of the seat carrier 5, a bearing shaft 23, which runs parallel to the bearing shaft 17 and which protrudes laterally beyond the seat carrier 5, is rigidly attached. On this bearing shaft 23 plate-shaped webs 24 of a U-shaped support arm 25 are pivotally mounted on both sides of the seat support, which carries at its end facing away from the bearing a curved tube 26 carrying the seat back, not shown in the drawing. The bearing point of the support arm 25 is located approximately between the vertical plane defined by the bearing shaft 17 and between the vertical plane defined by the bearing shaft 22.

Ein auf der Lagerwelle 22 verdrehbar gelagerter Lenker 27 ist an einer weiteren, parallel zur Lagerwelle 22 verlaufenden Lagerwelle 28 drehbar gelagert, die mit ihren Enden in den beiden einander gegenüberliegenden Stegen 24 des Stützarmes 25 gehalten ist. Dadurch sind der Stützarm 25 und die hintere Teilplatte 3 derart gelenkig miteinander verbunden, daß sich eine Schwenkbewegung des Stützarmes 25 in eine Schwenkbewegung der Teilplatte 3 überträgt und umgekehrt.A link 27 rotatably mounted on the bearing shaft 22 is rotatably mounted on a further bearing shaft 28 which runs parallel to the bearing shaft 22 and is held with its ends in the two opposing webs 24 of the support arm 25. As a result, the support arm 25 and the rear partial plate 3 are connected to one another in such an articulated manner that a pivoting movement of the supporting arm 25 is transferred to a pivoting movement of the partial plate 3 and vice versa.

An einem parallel zur Lagerwelle 28 verlaufenden Lagerbolzen 29, der im Stegbereich 30 des U-förmigen Stützarmes 25 gehalten ist, ist drehbar das eine Ende einer Rastpatrone 31 gelagert, deren anderes Ende drehbar auf einem Lagerbolzen 32 gelagert ist, der seinerseits in einem U-förmigen Halter 33 an der Unterseite des Sitzträgers 5 befestigt ist. Wie sich insbesondere aus der Darstellung der Fig. 3 ergibt, besteht die Rastpatrone 31 aus zwei teleskopierend ineinander verschiebbaren Rohrstücken 34 und 35, die beide über je einen Lagerbolzen 29 bzw. 32 drehbar gelagert sind. Das äußere Rohrstück 35 ist an beiden Enden offen und weist in seinem Inneren eine Ringstufe 36 auf, die als Anschlag für einen über den Außenumfang des anderen Rohrstückes 34 vorstehenden Sprengring 37 dient und die Verlängerung der Rastpatrone 31 durch Auseinanderschieben der Rohrstücke 34 und 35 begrenzt.On a parallel to the bearing shaft 28 bearing pin 29, which is held in the web area 30 of the U-shaped support arm 25, one end of a snap-in cartridge 31 is rotatably mounted, the other end of which is rotatably mounted on a bearing pin 32, which in turn is in a U-shaped holder 33 is attached to the underside of the seat support 5. As can be seen in particular from the illustration in FIG. 3, the snap-in cartridge 31 consists of two telescopically displaceable tube pieces 34 and 35, both of which are rotatably mounted via a bearing pin 29 and 32, respectively. The outer tube piece 35 is open at both ends and has in its interior an annular step 36 which serves as a stop for a snap ring 37 projecting beyond the outer circumference of the other tube piece 34 and limits the extension of the snap-in cartridge 31 by pushing the tube pieces 34 and 35 apart.

Im Innern der beiden Rohrstücke befindet sich eine Druckfeder 38, die sich einerseits am Lagerbolzen 29 und andererseits an einer Druckscheibe 39 abstützt, die ihrerseits am Lagerbolzen 32 anliegt. Die Druckscheibe 39 trägt weiterhin einen ins Innere der Druckfeder 38 eintretenden Dorn 40.In the interior of the two pipe sections there is a compression spring 38 which is supported on the one hand on the bearing pin 29 and on the other hand on a thrust washer 39 which in turn rests on the bearing pin 32. The thrust washer 39 also carries a mandrel 40 entering the inside of the compression spring 38.

Im Außenumfang des inneren Rohrstückes 34 sind parallele Umfangsnuten 41 angeordnet, in die ein durch eine Öffnung 42 im äußeren Rohrstück 35 hindurchtretender Rasthebel 43 mit Rastvorspiüngen 44 eintauchen kann, so daß das innere Rohrstück 34 gegenüber dem äußeren Rohrstück 35 in seiner axialen Position fixierbar ist. Der Rasthebel 43 ist seitlich unterhalb der Rastpatrone verschwenkbar am äußeren Rohrstück 35 gelagert und wird mittels einer in der Zeichnung nicht darg-estellten Zugfeder in die Stellung verschwenkt, in der die Rastvorsprünge 44 in die Umfangsnuten 41 eingreifen. Mittels eines Handgriffes 45 läßt sich der Rasthebel 43 entgegen der Wirkung der Zugfeder aus der Eingriffsstellung ausschwenken, so daß der Abstand der beiden Rohrstücke 34 und 35 und damit auch die Winkelstellung des Stützarmes 25 gegenüber dem Sitzträger 5 verändert werden können.Parallel circumferential grooves 41 are arranged in the outer circumference of the inner tube piece 34, into which a locking lever 43 with locking projections 44 can pass through an opening 42 in the outer tube piece 35, so that the inner tube piece 34 can be fixed in its axial position relative to the outer tube piece 35. The locking lever 43 is pivotally mounted laterally below the locking cartridge on the outer tube piece 35 and is pivoted by means of a tension spring, not shown in the drawing, into the position in which the locking projections 44 engage in the circumferential grooves 41. By means of a handle 45, the locking lever 43 can be pivoted out of the engagement position against the action of the tension spring, so that the distance between the two tube pieces 34 and 35 and thus also the angular position of the support arm 25 relative to the seat support 5 can be changed.

Am Sitzträger 5 ist unmittelbar oberhalb der Tragsäule 7 ein seitlich über den Sitzträger 5 vorstehender, tunnelförmiger Träger 46 befestigt, dessen obere, abgerundete Außenfläche als Abstützfläche fü, z.-vei Biegefedern 47 dient,die sich zu beiden Seiten des Sitzträgers 5 im wesentlichen parallel zu diesem erstreckt. Beide Biegefedern 47 sind einmal vollständig um den Träger 46 herumgebogen und bilden somit einen diesen umgebende Windung 48, von der aus ein Ende 49 jeder Biegefeder 47 sich im wesentlichen geradlinig unter die hintere Teilplatte 3 erstreckt und an der Unterseite der Lagerwelle 22 anliegt, und zwar in einem Zwischenraum zwischen den nach unten abgebogenen, als Lager 21 dienenden Teilen der Befestigungsbänder und dem Lenker 27.Attached to the seat support 5 immediately above the support column 7 is a tunnel-shaped support 46 protruding laterally above the seat support 5, the upper, rounded outer surface of which serves as a supporting surface for, for example, bending springs 47 which are essentially parallel to both sides of the seat support 5 extends to this. Both spiral springs 47 are completely bent around the carrier 46 and thus form a winding 48 surrounding them, from which one end 49 of each spiral spring 47 extends substantially in a straight line under the rear partial plate 3 and rests against the underside of the bearing shaft 22, specifically in a space between the downwardly bent parts of the fastening straps serving as bearings 21 and the handlebar 27.

Das andere Ende jeder Biegefeder ist mit einem parallel zur Lagerwelle 17 verlaufenden, unterhalb des horizontalen Endbereichs 10 am Sitzträger 5 anliegenden Steg 50 verbunden, der die beiden Biegefedern 47 miteinander verbindet. Der Steg 50 wird von einer drehbar auf ihm gelagerten Hülse 51 umgeben, die an der Unterseite des Sitzträgers 5 anliegt.The other end of each spiral spring is connected to a web 50, which runs parallel to the bearing shaft 17 and lies below the horizontal end region 10 on the seat support 5 and connects the two spiral springs 47 to one another. The web 50 is surrounded by a sleeve 51 rotatably mounted on it, which bears on the underside of the seat support 5.

Es kann weiterhin vorgesehen sein, daß die Lagerwelle 22 im Anlagebereich der Enden 49 der Biegefedern 47 ebenfalls eine drehbar auf ihr gelagerte Hülse trägt, an der die Enden 49 der Biegefeder 42 anliegen. Diese Hülsen verhindern beim Verschwenken der Teilplatte und des Stützarmes, daß die Biegefeder an der Unterseite des Sitzträgers bzw. an der Lagerwelle 22 gleiten; durch diese Hülsen wird im Gegenteil eine Abrollbewegung zwischen Stützarm bzw. Lagerwelle und Biegefeder ermöglicht.It can further be provided that the bearing shaft 22 in the contact area of the ends 49 of the spiral springs 47 also carries a sleeve rotatably mounted on it, against which the ends 49 of the spiral spring 42 bear. These sleeves prevent when pivoting the plate and the support arm that the spiral spring on the underside of the seat support or on the bearing shaft 22 slide; on the contrary, these sleeves enable a rolling movement between the support arm or bearing shaft and the spiral spring.

Im Innern des tunnelförmigen Trägers 46 ist ein Betätigungshebel 52 für die Höhenverstellung der Tragsäule 7 gegenüber dem Aufnahmerohr 8 angeordnet, wobei sich diese Verstellvorrichtung im Inneren der Tragsäule 7 befindet. Der Betätigungshebel 52 ragt seitlich parallel zur Lagerwelle 17 verlaufend über diese hervor und kann an der Unterseite der Sitzplatte 1 von einer auf dem Stuhl sitzenden Person zur Höhenverstellung betätigt werden.An actuating lever 52 for the height adjustment of the support column 7 relative to the receiving tube 8 is arranged in the interior of the tunnel-shaped support 46, this adjustment device being located inside the support column 7. The actuating lever 52 protrudes laterally parallel to the bearing shaft 17 and can be actuated on the underside of the seat plate 1 by a person sitting on the chair for height adjustment.

Bei gelöster Rastpatrone 31 verschwenken die Druckfeder 38 in der Rastpatrone und die beiden Biegefedern 47 den Stützarm in die aufrechte Stellung; dabei wird zwangsläufig die hintere Teilplatte 3 der Sitzplatte 1 nach oben verschwenkt, so daß eine auf dem Stuhl aufrecht sitzende person im Bekken stark unterstützt wird.When the snap-in cartridge 31 is released, the compression spring 38 in the snap-in cartridge and the two spiral springs 47 pivot the support arm into the upright position; the rear part of the seat plate 1 is inevitably pivoted upwards, so that a person sitting upright on the chair is strongly supported in the pool.

Neigt sich die auf dem Stuhl sitzende Person nach hinten, verschwenkt sie automatisch über die Rückenlehne den Stützarm 25 nach unten; dabei wird die hintere Teilplatte 3 zwangsläufig mitgenommen und abgesenkt, so daß bei einer nach hinten geneigten Sitzlage die Teilplatte das Becken nicht mehr störend unterstützt. Diese Verschwenkbewegung erfolgt gegen die Kraft der Druckfeder 38 und der Biegefedern 47.If the person sitting on the chair leans back, he automatically pivots the support arm 25 down over the backrest; the rear sub-plate 3 is inevitably carried along and lowered, so that the sub-plate no longer supports the pelvis in a backward inclined position. This pivoting movement takes place against the force of the compression spring 38 and the spiral springs 47.

Durch Loslassen des Rasthebels 43 können Stützarm und hintere Teilplatte in verschiedenen Winkelstellungen fixiert werden.By releasing the locking lever 43, the support arm and the rear partial plate can be fixed in different angular positions.
