  • Patent number: 10104956
    Abstract: A connecting device for connecting a table leg to a table leaf having a back-gripping element, which can be disposed on the table leaf and has an engagement hole and a locking device, which can be disposed on the table leg. The locking device has a clamping element having an engagement hook which is designed to engage the engagement hole of the back-gripping element, a spring element, which is supported at least indirectly against the clamping element and at least indirectly against a spring abutment, and an actuating element. The actuating element acts on the spring abutment so that, in a locking position, the spring abutment applies sufficient force to secure the engagement hook of the clamping element in the engagement hole, and in an unlocking position, the spring abutment is in a position in which the spring element is at least partially unloaded in relation to the locking position.

  • Patent number: 9585479
    Abstract: An “invisible” syncro tilt mechanism is provided for chairs. The chair has a seat with a back portion and a seat pan portion and the seat pan portion is connected to the back portion and to a pivotable support structure, and thereby to a base. The mechanism has a generally closed track defined in the seat pan portion. A plunger is attached to a front portion of the pivotable support structure. The plunger is slidably disposed in the track. A spring is disposed in the track which is connected at opposing ends to the plunger and to a front end of the track. The mechanism does not extend or protrude outside of the seat pan. The mechanism provides synchronous movement of the plunger in the track.
