Layout mechanisms for sofas

Layout mechanisms of sofas differ in ease of use and the limit of mechanical strength. Of course, they also differ in appearance and in the free area they require in order to decompose and assemble a berth without interference. There are models that a child can easily turn into bed, and there are those where skill and strength will be needed.

Choosing among the many types of transformation of sofas, you need to take into account whether you will lay out a sleeping place daily, or only occasionally, when guests come to the house.

Book (click-klyak)

Mechanism: in order to expand the sofa, lift the seat and pull it towards you. This is a reliable, time-tested folding mechanism of the sofa.

pros

  • Three positions of the back: sitting, lying, "relax" (intermediate position with a half-backed).
  • Compactness. Does not require a lot of space in order to decompose.
  • As a rule, it is possible to provide a laundry box.
  • Sleeper smooth, without "kinks."

Eurobook

Mechanism: The seat moves forward, after which the back of the sofa is lowered. In fact, it is difficult to call such mechanisms for laying out sofas and mechanisms: the seat leaves due to sliding along the guides, the backrest is lowered in manual mode.

pros

  • Durability: the simplicity of the folding mechanism of the sofa eliminates breakage.
  • Large selection of sizes.
  • Large linen box due to the absence of internal parts of the mechanism.
  • Smooth sleeping surface.

Eurobook "Tik-Tak"

Mechanism: among other types of sofa transformations, this one is distinguished by a particularly careful attitude to the floor covering: the wheels do not move along the floor, the seat moves along a trajectory resembling a semi-circle.

pros

  • Scratches on the floor, linoleum and other floor coverings are excluded.
  • Does not require a lot of space for layouts.

Accordion

Mechanism: this “musical” name given to the folding mechanism of the sofa for its similarity with the principle of stretching furs in this musical instrument. The seat rises to a click, and then extends until it stops.

pros

  • Minimum size in assembled condition.
  • Big size of a berth.
  • Reliability mechanism.

Roll out

Mechanism: the seat pulls all the other parts. To lay out the sofa you need to pull the seat strap, hidden under.

pros

  • Of all the mechanisms of the layout of the sofas, this is the most reliable.
  • Takes up little space when folded
  • The big size of a berth at the small size of the put design.

Cot

It includes the following types of sofa transformations: American and French. They have some differences, but they are similar in that the sleeping place when assembled is under the seat.

French view

Mechanism: the seat must be pulled out towards itself and then upward, after that “unfolded” folded sofa. Before that, you must remove the pillows.

Pros:

  • When folded, it takes up little space.
  • In the unfolded form has a fairly large bed.

American view ("sedafleks")

Mechanism: decomposed similarly to the French mechanism, with no need to remove the headrest, it will move to the desired position.

pros

  • More durable mechanism than the French counterpart.
  • There is no need to dismantle structural elements.

Dolphin

The mechanism: the movement of a berth with this mechanism of folding the sofa resembles a dolphin's dive. It is necessary to pull the strap attached to the seat and push it fully.

pros

  • The most durable of all types of transformation of sofas. Suitable for daily folding.
  • A berth of the big size, equal.
  • Easy to fold and fold.

Conrad

Of all the types of transformation of sofas, this option is the most convenient for sleeping, since it allows the use of spring blocks in the design, which is most beneficial for health and creates comfortable conditions for sleep.

Mechanism: the part located under the seat extends and extends further, dragging the seat and then the back part, after which the first part rises up one level with the seat and part of the back falls to the same level.

pros

  • Sleeper, similar in quality to the orthopedic mattress.
  • Significant savings in space in the folded state with a relatively large bed.
