Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Sitzmöbel mit Armlehne, die auf einem Armlehnenträger verstellbar angeordnet ist.The invention relates to seating with armrests, which is adjustably arranged on an armrest support.

Es ist bekannt, bei Sitzmöbeln sowohl die Höhe der Armlehne als auch deren seitlich gemessenen Abstand verstellbar zu machen. Die technischen Lösungen für die Verstellungen sind teilweise aufwendig, teilweise ist die Verstellung problematisch.It is known to make both the height of the armrest and its laterally measured distance adjustable in seating. The technical solutions for the adjustments are sometimes complex, sometimes the adjustment is problematic.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Sitzmöbel der bekannten Art so auszubilden, daß in einfacher Weise eine Verstellung des Armauflagebereichs nach vorn oder hinten möglich ist.The invention has for its object to design a seating of the known type so that an adjustment of the armrest area forward or backward is possible in a simple manner.

Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe erfolgt erfindungsgemäß dadurch, daß der Armlehnenträger in einer schräg nach hinten oder schräg nach vorn aufwärts gerichteten Stellung am Sitzträger oder Sitz befestigbar ist.This object is achieved according to the invention in that the armrest support can be attached to the seat support or seat in an obliquely rearward or obliquely upward forward position.

Bei einer solchen Konstruktion kann durch die beiden unterschiedlichen Anbringungsarten des Armlehnenträgers die Lage des Armlehnenbereichs so verändert werden, daß dieser weiter vorn oder weiter hinten angeordnet wird.In such a construction, the position of the armrest area can be changed by the two different types of attachment of the armrest support so that it is arranged further forward or further back.

Gemäß einem weiteren Merkmal der Erfindung weist die Armlehne eine quer zum Armauflagebereich in einem von. 90° abweichenden Winkel angeordnete Gleitführung für den aufwärts ragenden Bereich des Armlehnenträgers auf. Eine solche Gleitführung erlaubt eine Höhenverstellung des Auflagebereichs.According to a further feature of the invention, the armrest has a transverse to the armrest area in one of. Sliding guide arranged at an angle of 90 ° for the upwardly projecting area of the armrest support. Such a sliding guide allows a height adjustment of the support area.

Weitere Merkmale der Erfindung sind in den weiteren Unteransprüchen beschrieben. Bei diesen Ausführungsformen sind leicht bedienbare Rastmechanismen vorgesehen, die eine Arretierung der Armlehnen und damit der Armauflagebereiche in jeder gewünschten Höhe zulassen.Further features of the invention are described in the further subclaims. In these embodiments, easy-to-use locking mechanisms are provided which allow the armrests and thus the armrest areas to be locked at any desired height.

Bei dem erfindangsgemäßen Sitzmöbel läßt sich die Armlehne also entsprechend den ergonomischen Bedürfnissen an die individuellen Maße des Benutzers sowohl in der Höhe als auch im Abstand von der Vorderkante des Sitzes einstellen.In the seating furniture according to the invention, the armrest can therefore be adjusted according to the ergonomic needs of the individual dimensions of the user, both in height and at a distance from the front edge of the seat.

Der in Figuren 1 und 2 schematisch dargestellte Stuhl ist ein Bürostuhl mit zentraler Mittelsäule 12, einem Sitz 13 und einer über einen Rückenlehnenträger 15 mit dem Sitz 13 oder einem nicht dargestellten Sitzträger verbundenen Rückenlehne 14.The chair shown schematically in FIGS. 1 and 2 is an office chair with a central center column 12, a seat 13 and a backrest 14 connected to the seat 13 or a seat support (not shown) via a backrest support 15.

Ein Armlehnenträger 1 ist mit dem Sitzträger oder dem Sitz verbunden. Der Armlehnenträger 1 ragt in eine Armlehne 2, die eine Gleitführung 2a aufweist. Mit 3 ist der Armauflagebereich bezeichnet. Der Abstand der Vorderkante des Armauflagebereichs 3 von der Längsmittelebene 11 des Armlehnenträgers 1 ist mit a bezeichnet, der Abstand von der Längsmittelebene 11 zur hinteren Kante des Armauflagebereichs mit b. Im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel ist b größer als a.An armrest support 1 is connected to the seat support or the seat. The armrest support 1 projects into an armrest 2 which has a slide guide 2a. The arm support area is designated by 3. The distance of the front edge of the armrest area 3 from the longitudinal center plane 11 of the armrest support 1 is denoted by a, the distance from the longitudinal center plane 11 to the rear edge of the armrest area is b. In the illustrated embodiment, b is larger than a.

Die Längsmittelebene 11 schließt mit der Armauflage einen WinkelcC bzw. (3 ein und verläuft nicht senkrecht zum Armauflagebereich.The longitudinal center plane 11 includes an angle cC or (3) with the armrest and does not run perpendicular to the armrest area.

Der Armlehnenträger 1 kann entweder mit einer Schrägneigung nach vorn unter dem Winkel ϑ (siehe Figur1) oder mit einer Schrägneigung nach hinten

Figure imgb0001
(siehe Figur 2) montiert werden. Je nach Montageart ist der Abstand der Vorderkante des Armauflagebereichs 3 von der vorderen Sitzkante kleiner (x in Figur 1) oder größer (y in Figur 2).The armrest support 1 can either be inclined to the front at an angle ϑ (see FIG. 1) or be inclined to the rear
Figure imgb0001
(see Figure 2). Depending on the type of installation, the distance between the front edge of the armrest area 3 and the front seat edge is smaller (x in FIG. 1) or larger (y in FIG. 2).
