NEW SOFA BED MECHANISM SYSTEM FOR FURNITURE INDUSTRY

Today, the works that improve ergonomics and human comfort in the furniture sector are consistently increasing. In addition to this, improving the current situation of the mechanism systems, which used in the widely produced seating and bed groups, is gaining momentum every day. The design of the mechanisms that provide the desired function is considered within the kinematic synthesis of the mechanisms. The kinematic synthesis of mechanisms is examined in three main categories as function, trajectory and motion synthesis. It is expected that follow the desired trajectory when moved the mechanic systems, the desired position during the movement of the mechanical systems and area-volume usage will be optimum. Thanks to the mechanisms that provide these requirements, quality of the machine, tools, etc. will increase. In this study, in order to improve the opening and closing systems used in the furniture sector, a mechanism system has been designed and virtual prototypes have been realized in order to ensure optimum use of area and volume during the movement of these parts
