Abstract
Description
[0001] The invention relates to a means of transport with a standing seat, wherein the standing seat is connected to the means of transport via a frame and has a seat part that can be transferred between a first use position and a second use position, as well as a backrest. The seat part is connected to the frame via at least one connecting element. The standing seat is further characterized in that each of the use positions of the seat part can be effected by body positions of a person using the standing seat that correlate with and differ from one another and / or are effected by the person using the standing seat when the standing seat is used.
[0002] Due to the steadily increasing population density, particularly in urban areas, it is necessary to develop new concepts that can essentially accommodate the transport of the growing population using existing transport systems. This is primarily due to the fact that the existing space and area available in areas with high and increasing population density can hardly be increased, and existing transport systems, especially land-based ones such as road and rail, cannot be expanded indefinitely. Furthermore, a geometric expansion of the means of transport is also not possible.
[0003] In addition to a balanced mix and an optimised integration of improved private transport, public transport and private transport services, it is therefore desirable, particularly in the latter two areas, to increase transport capacity with essentially unchanged transport systems.
[0004] One approach to achieving this goal with comparatively little effort is to change the means of transport used, such as trains and buses and / or minibuses.
[0005] For example, it would be advisable to forego the use of space-consuming seats in the means of transport and simply provide for essentially free-standing transport, with people holding onto handrails or grab bars. However, such a solution is considered disadvantageous, as many people are unable to cover long distances exclusively standing and / or withstand regularly occurring stresses, such as those encountered when starting, cornering, and braking, under their own power.
[0006] One solution to this problem is the use of stand-up seats, which, on the one hand, allow a person to remain in a supported position during transport. On the other hand, stand-up seats require less space, thus increasing the carrying capacity of a vehicle.
[0007] One possible design of a stand-up seat is disclosed in JP 3 586 300 B2. The stand-up seat has a seat section that can be pivoted on one side between a substantially horizontal and a substantially vertical orientation, such that the stand-up seat can be used for a person using the stand-up seat to adopt a more sitting position or a more leaning, more stretched-out position. Furthermore, the stand-up seat has a back section that is arranged above and at a distance from the seat section and is consequently intended to support the back of a person using the stand-up seat. The stand-up seat is rigidly attached to the floor of a vehicle by at least one leg. However, the disclosed stand-up seat is quite inflexible and offers only limited comfort for the person using the stand-up seat.
[0008] DE 20 2008 017 742 U1 also discloses a standing seat intended for body support and use in a user's various activities. For this purpose, the standing seat has a lower, middle, and upper support, with the middle support, which functions as a seat part, being movable between two positions. However, the positions of use of the seat part are fixed via adjustment parts, e.g., before the standing seat is used. The disadvantage is that the preset positions of use of the seat part result in different body positions for the user using the standing seat.
[0009] US 2008 0 143 164 A1 discloses a seat in the form of an ergonomic chair, in which a seat part can be pivoted about a pivot bearing, and the angular position of the seat part can be adjusted via the semicircular perforation in a seat base and the pin engaging in this perforation. Thus, here too, the seating positions are not determined by the body position of the person using the seat.
[0010] US 2007 0 273 192 A1 and JP S58 149 840 A also describe seats in which only a fixed pre-adjustment of the usage positions of the seat parts is possible.
[0011] US Pat. No. 5,018,790 A discloses an adjustable seat cushion comprising a base, the effective contours of which can be selectively expanded by adding removable and securely attachable anatomically shaped pads. Specifically, a pressure-relieving pad containing a liquid filling material is placed on the base to create a customized, comfortable seat cushion.
[0012] DE 10 2015 114 382 A1 also discloses a seating system for creating a personal rest area in a passenger cabin of a vehicle, particularly an aircraft or spacecraft. The seating system consists of a seat element and a backrest, which has a shielding module in the head area. The shielding module comprises a central headrest on the backrest and at least one laterally arranged privacy wing protruding from the backrest.
[0013] US Pat. No. 5,295,728 A also describes a standing seat whose seat portion can be moved between two positions of use, each of which is achieved by the body positions of the person using the standing seat that correlate with and differ from the positions of use. Specifically, the seat portion is mounted to the frame along an elongated opening of a connecting element so that it can be freely moved and rotated. The person using the standing seat can move and / or rotate the seat. However, the freely movable and rotatable mounting can result in unergonomic positions for the person, thus resulting in reduced comfort.
[0014] Against this background, the object of the invention is to design the means of transport with the standing seat of the type mentioned above in such a way that increased comfort is achieved.
[0015] This object is achieved by a means of transport according to the features of patent claim 1. The subclaims relate to particularly expedient developments of the invention.
[0016] According to the invention, a means of transport with a standing seat is provided, wherein the means of transport is in particular a train or a bus. The standing seat enables the transport of a person in a position which, logically, does not resemble a classic sitting position with a seat height of approximately 50 centimeters and with legs bent at almost a right angle. In contrast, a person on the standing seat assumes a more stretched-out position, with legs not bent or only slightly bent. According to the invention, the standing seat is connected to the means of transport via a frame and additionally has a seat part that can be transferred between a first use position and a second use position that differs from this, as well as a backrest that is designed separately from the seat part. Furthermore, the seat part is connected to the frame via at least one connecting element.It should be noted that the frame of the standing seat would have or consist of at least one rod or post. The standing seat is further characterized by the fact that each of the seating positions can be achieved by a person using the standing seat adopting a body position that correlates with the respective positions and differs from one another, and / or is achieved by the person using the standing seat. This advantageously enables the standing seat to be used in two different body or sitting positions, which significantly increases the comfort of the standing seat while maintaining a small footprint.The body positions differ in that a person using the stand-up seat is positioned in a first, particularly forward-facing, body position on the seat part, facing away from the stand-up seat, so that the person's back rests on the backrest. In a second, particularly backward-facing, body position, the person is positioned on the seat part, facing the stand-up seat, so that the person's chest rests on the backrest. The person can therefore decide whether they want to sit on the stand-up seat in a classic, forward-facing body position or in a backward-facing body position, the latter being particularly suitable for a rest or sleep phase during transport. There is an option to put the feet down, for example.in a storage area on the floor, in a storage area on a footrest or even on pedals, where exercise can be done and / or electricity can be generated. This could also, for example, make it possible to reduce travel costs. In addition, the advantages of a stand-up seat remain, particularly compared to purely standing transport. This leaves the hands of the person being transported free for other activities, while at the same time allowing a stable posture. In addition, a person does not have to sit down in the traditional sense, which can make it difficult for older and / or weaker people to get up again. Getting in and out is therefore much more comfortable and quicker.To further increase comfort, it would be possible for the standing seat to have a charging option, particularly according to the USB standard, via which battery-operated mobile devices of a person using the standing seat can be charged.
[0017] Furthermore, the invention provides that the backrest of the standing seat is designed to be tiltable and / or pivotable relative to the frame between a first position of use and a second position of use. The tiltable and / or pivotable design of the backrest advantageously enables the position of the backrest to be adapted to the respective forward or backward body position of a person using the standing seat, wherein the positions of use of the backrest correlate with the positions of use of the seat part and thus with the body positions of the person. In this case, the backrest should be tilted away from the seat part in its first position of use, and tilted towards the seat part in its second position of use. The backrest is thus designed to be improved compared to a rigid arrangement on the standing seat with regard to the support of the person's back and / or chest.According to the invention, the tilt and / or swivel angle of the backrest is limited so that the user does not adopt an unergonomic or unstable posture in any given body or sitting position. Furthermore, the backrest should be ergonomically shaped so that it optimally adapts to the user's back and / or chest in the respective use position, providing support.
[0018] Furthermore, it is conceivable for the standing seat to be arranged in the means of transport so that it can rotate about its vertical axis, which in particular coincides with a vertical axis of the means of transport. In addition, the standing seat can also be designed to be height-adjustable, whereby there are several possibilities for implementing height adjustability. On the one hand, for example, the standing seat as such could be designed to be height-adjustable, in particular via the frame of the standing seat. On the other hand, the height adjustability can also only affect parts of the standing seat. For example, it would be advantageous if the seat part and / or the backrest of the standing seat were designed to be height-adjustable - even individually in relation to one another. This would allow the standing seat to be advantageously adapted to the different heights of the buttocks of a person using the standing seat.The range of possible height adjustment can be 20 to 30 centimeters, especially 25 centimeters. This would allow the standing seat to be adjusted to body heights between those of a 5th percentile woman and a 95th percentile man. In this context, it is considered advantageous if the seat section is positioned at a height of 60 to 85 centimeters above the lower end of the standing seat or the floor of the vehicle.
[0019] In a particularly advantageous development of the invention, a connecting element is also provided along a vertical axis of the standing seat - at the foot end and / or head end of the standing seat - accordingly between the standing seat and the means of transport - via which the standing seat is rotatably connected to the means of transport. This advantageously ensures that the standing seat can be rotated about its vertical axis, while at the same time achieving the necessary mechanical stability to withstand the load exerted by a person using the standing seat. To further increase comfort, it is also possible for the standing seat to have a suspension system, which is designed in particular in or on the connecting element. The connecting element is preferably a stand base.
[0020] A further embodiment of the invention has proven advantageous in which the seat part can be tilted and / or pivoted on two sides relative to a horizontal orientation, into one of the positions of use and between the positions of use, so that the seat part is inclined in the opposite direction to the horizontal orientation in the positions of use - in particular opposite or facing away from each other. The tiltable and / or pivotable seat part thus advantageously adapts to the body position of the person using the standing seat, whereby the tilting and pivoting can also be carried out in an overlapping manner. A seat surface of the seat part would accordingly be inclined away from the backrest in the first position of use and / or inclined towards the backrest in the second position of use.When pivoting the seat part, an offset would also occur relative to the backrest, whereby, however, the position or distance of a connecting element arranged directly on the seat part, via which the seat part is attached to the standing seat, remains unchanged relative to the backrest. When tilting, however, no offset occurs relative to the backrest. The tilting of the seat part would be possible about a first transverse axis, and the pivoting about a second transverse axis parallel to the first transverse axis, which are each directed perpendicular to the vertical axis. In particular, the aforementioned connecting element should be at least one joint via which the seat part is arranged so that it can be tilted and / or pivoted on the standing seat. The tiltable and / or pivotable seat part can also advantageously be used for pelvic floor exercises or to move the lumbar spine.
[0021] A further development of the invention is further advantageous if the seat part is designed as a fluid-filled seat cushion that can be deformed in a specific direction between the positions of use - in particular depending on the load exerted by a person sitting on the seat cushion. This would make it possible to design the seat part so that it can be adapted to the body positions of a person using the standing seat, without the need for additional mechanisms for tilting and / or pivoting the seat part. Especially when the standing seat is arranged in a means of public transport, the potential for damage can be minimized and the standing seat can also be designed more cost-effectively. The fluid with which the seat cushion is filled would preferably be air.The shape of the seat cushion could correspond to that of a small exercise ball or part of an exercise ball.
[0022] A further promising embodiment of the invention is one in which the seat part, together with at least one connecting element of the seat part by means of which the seat part is attached to the frame, is designed so that its distance from the backrest on the standing seat can be adjusted. Increasing the distance between the seat part and the backrest thus makes it possible to achieve improved legroom and / or improved support of the back or chest against the backrest. Furthermore, it is conceivable that, in addition to the seat part, a shelf, particularly arranged beneath the seat part, is also designed so that its distance from the backrest can be adjusted. For this purpose, the seat part and / or the shelf can be arranged, for example, so that it can be displaced via a linear guide and / or pivoted via a joint arrangement.
[0023] A promising design of the transport means according to the invention also lies in the fact that a shelf is formed on the standing seat - particularly at the foot end of the standing seat - and / or the shelf is arranged along the vertical axis below the seat part. This advantageously allows personal items, in particular luggage, of a person using the standing seat to be stowed away without having to be placed next to the standing seat, taking up space and causing a nuisance. This ensures that the stand-up seat has the smallest possible footprint and also increases safety, as the items are securely stowed and cannot move freely inside the transport means, especially when the transport means is moving. This also minimizes the potential for injury in the event of an accident. Furthermore, the shelf could also be used as a footrest.
[0024] Alternatively or in addition to the aforementioned storage, at least one hook can be arranged on the standing seat, on which items of luggage such as handbags or items of clothing can be hung.
[0025] In a further particularly advantageous development of the invention, the standing seat has a headrest, which is designed in the form of a recess in the backrest or a chin rest for at least partially accommodating or supporting the head of a person using the standing seat. The headrest thus stabilizes the person's head, which can significantly increase the person's comfort, particularly during rest or sleep phases.
[0026] In an extremely practical embodiment of the invention, the standing seat in one of its versions has at least one, preferably two, shoulder straps for securing at least one shoulder, preferably both shoulders, of a person using the standing seat. In this way, increased safety for a person using the standing seat can be ensured by securing the shoulders, with each shoulder strap being padded to increase comfort. Each shoulder strap would preferably also be designed to be foldable. It can also be provided that the folding of each shoulder strap is automated. In this case, the shoulder straps are intended to fold from a non-use position, in which the shoulders cannot be enclosed by the shoulder straps, into a secured position in which the shoulders can be enclosed by the shoulder straps when the seat part is loaded.When the seat is relieved of load, it folds from the locking position to the non-use position. The locking position can be configured with various locking positions. Furthermore, the shoulder straps can be made height-adjustable. This advantageously allows for adaptation to different body types, particularly the height and / or upper body dimensions of the people using the standing seat.
[0027] In a promising embodiment of the invention, it is also envisaged that a privacy screen is arranged at the head end of the standing seat, by means of which the head of a person using the standing seat can be covered to at least one side of the standing seat, preventing them from seeing. This allows the person a certain degree of privacy, should they wish to rest or sleep, particularly while in the second body position. The privacy screen could for this purpose be designed, for example, as a head curtain, which can also be pulled around the head by the person. Another possibility is to design the privacy screen using at least one foldable screen wing, preferably two foldable screen wings, by means of which the person's head can be shielded at least to the side of the backrest. Furthermore, a fixed privacy screen element can be provided, by means of which the person's head can be shielded to the rear of the backrest.The screen wings and / or the privacy screen element can be padded to make it comfortable for the person to lean their head against them. It is also conceivable for the privacy screen to have sound shielding, with the screen wings and / or the privacy screen element in particular being designed to be sound-absorbing. This can ensure that the person, and preferably their head, is shielded from outside noise and / or privacy during telephone conversations.
[0028] The invention is susceptible of numerous embodiments. To further clarify its basic principle, several of these are illustrated in the drawings and described below. The drawings show in Fig. 1 a further development of a standing seat according to the invention with a headrest in the backrest; Fig. 2 a further development of the standing seat with seat parts in different positions of use; Fig. 3 a seat part designed as a fluid-filled seat cushion; Fig. 4 a further development of the standing seat with tilting backrest; Fig. 5 a further development of a standing seat according to the invention; Fig. 6, Fig. 7 a standing seat with privacy screen; Fig. 8, Fig. 9 different arrangements of standing seats in means of transport.
[0029] Fig. 1 shows a further development of a standing seat 1 according to the invention, wherein the latter is arranged in the means of transport 2. The standing seat 1 is connected to the means of transport 2 via the frame 3 and has the seat part 6 tilted into its first use position 4, as well as the backrest 7 rigidly arranged on the frame 3, and the shelf 13. The foot side of the standing seat 1 also features the connecting element 11, via which the standing seat 1 is rotatably connected to and correspondingly relative to the means of transport 2, and in particular rotatably connected to the floor of the means of transport 2. This rotatability is indicated by the double arrow drawn on the floor. The connecting element 11 represents part of the frame 3 and, in this further development, is designed as a stand. Furthermore, the standing seat 1 has a headrest, which is in the form of the recess 15 in the backrest 7.Furthermore, the two shoulder straps 18 are arranged on the head side and laterally of the backrest 7, whereby these are basically pivotally connected to the backrest 7.
[0030] In Fig. 2 also shows two standing seats 1 arranged one behind the other in the means of transport 2, shown schematically in a very simplified manner. Fig. 2 that the seat parts 6 are each connected to the respective frame 3 of the standing seats 1 via the connecting element 21, in this case a joint. The two standing seats 1 differ in the respective use positions 4, 5 of the seat part 6 of the standing seats 1. It should be noted that the seat parts 6 are transferable between the first use position 4 and the second use position 5, wherein the transfer is effected by body positions 8, 9 of the person 10 using the respective standing seat 1, which correlate with the use positions 4, 5 and differ from one another, and, as in Fig. 2, is effected when the standing seat 1 is used by the person 10. In particular, the seat parts 6 are designed to be tiltable on two sides relative to a horizontal orientation, in each of the positions of use 4, 5 as well as between the positions of use 4, 5 - in this case about the connecting element 21 designed as a joint - so that the seat parts 6 are inclined in opposite directions in the positions of use 4, 5. This results in the seat surface 22 of the seat part 6 being inclined away from the backrest 7 in the first position of use 4 and inclined towards the backrest 7 in the second position of use 5. The possibility of tilting the seat parts 6 is illustrated in the illustration of Fig. 2 again indicated by a double arrow. The first position of use 4 is now brought about by the forward-facing, first body position 8 of the person 10, wherein the person 10 in this first body position 8 is positioned on the seat part 6 facing away from the standing seat 1 and the back of the person 10 rests on the backrest 7. In a corresponding manner, the second position of use 5 is brought about by the second body position 9 of the person 10 using the standing seat 1, wherein the person 10 in this rearward-facing, second body position 9, however, is positioned on the seat part 6 facing towards the standing seat 1 and the chest of the person 10 rests on the backrest 7.
[0031] Alternatively to the Fig. 2 shown tiltable design of the seat part 6 is, as shown in the Fig. 3, in one embodiment of the seat part 6 it is envisaged that this is designed as a fluid-filled seat cushion 12, which is arranged between the Fig. 2 shown usage positions 4, 5 can be deformed in a directed manner.
[0032] Fig. Figure 4 again shows an embodiment of two standing seats 1 arranged one behind the other, wherein in addition to the seat parts 6, the backrests 7 are also designed to be tiltable relative to the frame 3. The backrests 7 have usage positions 23, 24 that correlate with the usage positions 4, 5 of the seat part. In this case, the backrest 7 is tilted away from the seat part 6 in its first usage position 23, and tilted towards the backrest 7 in its second usage position 24. Furthermore, the backrest 7 is ergonomically shaped so that in the respective usage position 7 it adapts as optimally as possible to the back and chest of the user, e.g. Fig. 2 and supports the person 10. Since the backrests 7 and seat parts 6 can be moved independently of each other, other relative positions than those described here are also possible. The focus is on comfort and the adaptation of the backrest 7 to the body shape of the person 10 in the respective position, e.g., in Fig. 5 shown body position 8, 9 or the respective sitting position.
[0033] The Fig. 5 shows a further embodiment of two standing seats 1, which are again arranged in the means of transport 2 and offset from one another. The standing seats 1 are connected to the means of transport 2 via a rod of the frame 3 so as to be rotatable about the vertical axis 14, the rotatability being indicated by the double arrows drawn on the base. The seat part 6 of the standing seats 1 can be transferred between the first use position 4 and the second use position 5, wherein the respective use position 4, 5 of the seat part 6 can be brought about by body positions 8, 9 of the person 10 using the standing seat 1, which body positions correlate with the use positions 4, 5 and differ from one another, and are brought about accordingly by the respective person 10. The seat parts 6 are also connected to the frame 3 via the connecting element 21.Along the vertical axis 14 of the respective standing seat 1, the shelf 13 is also arranged below the seat part 6. This shelf, as well as the seat part 6 together with the connecting element 21, are designed so that their distance from the backrest 7 can be adjusted. These are designed to be longitudinally displaceable via the linear guide 25 arranged on the frame 3. Furthermore, the respective seat part 6 itself is designed to be pivotable on two sides relative to its horizontal orientation, into one of the use positions 4, 5 and between the use positions 4, 5, so that the seat part 6 is inclined in opposite directions in the use positions 4, 5. The pivoting takes place via the connecting element 21, which forms a sliding bearing with the seat part 6.
[0034] The Fig. 6 and Fig. 7 describe again the already Fig. 5 known further development of the standing seat 1. The Fig. 6 depicts a person 10 using the standing seat 1, who is in the forward-facing, first body position 8, which in turn causes the first use position 4 of the seat part 6. The Fig. 7, however, it can be seen that the person 10 using the standing seat 1 is in the rearward-facing body position 9 and the seat part 6 is thus in the second usage position 5. The standing seat 1 shown has two shoulder straps 18 for securing the shoulders 19 of the person 10 using the standing seat 1, wherein these shoulder straps 18 are arranged on the frame 3. The shoulder straps 18 partially enclose the shoulders 19. In addition, the privacy screen 20 is arranged on the head side of the standing seat 1 on the frame 3, by means of which the head 17 of the person 10 can be covered on three sides of the standing seat 1, preventing them from being seen. The privacy screen 20 has two foldable screen wings 26, by means of which the head 17 of the person 10 can be shielded on each side of the backrest 7. In addition, the privacy protection device 20 has the fixed privacy protection element 27, via which the head 17 of the person 10 can be shielded from the rear of the backrest 7.In addition, in the area of the privacy screen 20 and thus also at the head end of the standing seat 1, a headrest is provided, which is designed in the form of a chin rest 16. This serves, as shown in . Fig. 7, the support of the head 17 of the person 10.
[0035] The Fig. 8 and Fig. Figure 9 also shows the arrangement of several standing seats 1 in a respective means of transport 2, in this case a bus. It is envisaged that the standing seats 1 are arranged displaceably within the means of transport 2, so that, as in Fig. 8, a uniform orientation or, as in Fig. 9, an adjustment of the standing seats 1 can be realized as required. This adjustment of the standing seats 1 is also possible by the rotatability of the Fig. 5 shown vertical axis 14 can be changed.
