Standing seat
A seat comprising a seat support for receiving and bracing a seat plate, which comprises a rear region and a front region, the rear region, which receives the ischial bones (os ischii), being arranged lower than the front region and the seat support supporting the rear region, wherein the front region of the seat plate is formed resiliently as a flexible zone without direct supports.
1. A seat comprising:
a seat support;
a contoured seat plate received and braced by the seat support;
a curved rear region adapted to receive the ischial bones (os ischii) formed in the contoured seat plate and supported by the seat support;
a resiliently flexible, curved front region formed in the contoured seat plate, vertically offset from the curved rear region, arranged more vertically distant with respect to the seat support than the curved rear region, and indirectly supported, the front region formed resiliently as a flexible zone;
a slanting transition region formed in the contoured seat plate, extending substantially continuously between the curved rear region and the curved front region, and traversing the differing vertical arrangements of the curved rear region and the curved front region with respect to the seat support so as to form a continuous curve through the curved front, curved rear, and slating transition regions in a vertical plane; and
a plurality of flexible lamellar arms formed in the curved front region, radiating substantially from the slanting transition region and increasing in compliance radially from the transition region.
2. The seat according to claim 1 , wherein the flexible zone forms a cantilever.
3. The seat according to claim 1 , wherein a support brace is provided on the seat plate or the seat support, substantially between the transition region and the flexible zone.
4. The seat according to claim 3 , wherein a resilient material is positioned between the support brace and the flexible zone.
5. The seat according to claim 4 , wherein the support brace is braced on a seat cover, the seat support, or the seat cover and the seat support.
6. The seat according to claim 3 , wherein the support brace and the flexible zone substantially form a V-shape together, which opens towards the curved front region.
7. The seat according to claim 1 , wherein the seat plate, the seat support and a seat cover are formed from the same part in the curved rear region.
8. The seat according to claim 1 , wherein a seat cover includes a handle, the seat cover and the seat support are formed from the same part, and the seat support includes a hub having a receiving cone for an underframe.
