Abstract (en)

The seat, particularly a chair, comprises a backrest (1) and seat-section (3) on a mounting structure (11) Both a motor (9) and a spring unit (10) pivot in a vertical plane on fixed axes (14-21). They are coupled to a common hinge spindle (8) to the backrest, so that this moves in the vertical direction during their pivoting movement. A further hinge spindle (2) couples the backrest and seat-section together, all hinge axes being horizontal and parallel. The spindle (2) can be solidly coupled by levers (4,5) to the backrest and seat-section. The motor can be linear, with a spindle drive, or a double-acting ram, particularly hydraulic. The spring unit can be formed by a compressed-gas spring.

Abstract (de)

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Sitzmöbel, insbesondere einen Behindertenstuhl, bei dem durch nur einen Motor die Rückenlehne und die Sitzfläche gemeinsam winkelverstellbar sind, wobei der Motor und eine Gasfeder an nur einer ortsbeweglichen Schwenkachse angelenkt sind. Dadurch ergibt sich eine sehr einfache, raumsparende und weniger Einzelteile aufweisende Konstruktion. <IMAGE>
