  • Patent number: 8931849
    Abstract: The invention relates to seating furniture comprising two frames arranged at a distance to each other on a support, between which frames a seat part and a backrest part can be mounted, and the frames have one upper frame part and a lower frame part each which mechanically immobilize the seat part and the backrest part a the sides thereof. The upper frame part and the lower frame part are clamping elements that can be braced with each other. At least one clamping element has a laterally extending recess on each edge which recess forms a frame groove in which a respective engaging element provided on the edges of the seat part and of the backrest part can be mounted by way of a frictional connection to the upper frame part and the lower frame part. The recess has an undercut portion which forms a stop for holding the clamped engaging element by a form fit.

  • Patent number: 5549055
    Abstract: Main components of the underframe for a tabletop (2) are a mounting plate (19), on which a leg column is fastened, two mounting rails (17) arranged on the underside (5) of the tabletop (2) at a distance from and parallel to one another, and two clamping devices (7) clamp the mounting plate (19) firmly to a mounting rail (17). The mounting rails (17) are L-cast profiles with a short reinforcing leg (17a) and a long holding leg (17b), fastened to the tabletop underside (5) with clamping studs (17c): or a molded-on clamping leg, offset downwardly. Clamping studs (17c) or the clamping leg, directed toward the center of the tabletop, form with the holding leg (17b) a slot (18) to move the tabletop (2) onto outer edges (19a) of the mounting plate (19) offset upwardly or to extend the mounting plate.
