Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0527119A1] Piece of furniture forming a seat which can be converted into a bed, provided with a seat element (1) and a backrest element (2) which is joined thereto, which is linked to it by means of a hinge (3) in order to make the seat element (1) and the backrest element (2) pivot with respect to one another between an automatically stabilised position of the seat, in which the angle between the two elements is minimal, and a lying position of the bed, in which the angle between the two elements is maximum. Moreover, tabs are provided in order to support the seat element in the sitting position and the seat element (1) and the backrest element (2) in the lying position of the piece of furniture. A locking device (5) is placed between the backrest element (2) and the seat element (1) in order to lock together the seat element (1) and the backrest element (2), in the sitting position. This locking device (5) may be unlocked when the backrest element (2) tilting towards the lying position is tilted rearwards, and may again be automatically locked when the backrest element (2) is tilted again from the lying position towards the sitting position.
