Drawings

In the following, the invention is described in more detail with the aid of embodiment examples with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be emphasized that the invention is not limited to this embodiment example, in which:

fig. 1 shows in a) a spatial view of a part of a frame of a drawer for furniture and in b) a section through the frame of a); and

fig. 2 shows in a) a spatial view of a part of the frame of fig. 1a) without an outer wall, in b) a section through the frame part of a), and in c) an exploded view of the frame parts of a) and b).

Detailed Description

The frame 1 shown in fig. 1a) and b) has a multi-shell structure, in this case a double-shell structure, with an inner shell 10 and an outer shell 11, which define a cavity 12, which can be formed open at its ends, i.e. oriented towards the rear wall and the panel in the mounted state. In the following, terms such as "top" and "bottom" refer to the usual arrangement of frames in drawers, wherein the sliding guides of the drawer and their bottom are substantially horizontally aligned, and the frame 1 is substantially vertically aligned. However, this is not a limitation, but only the preferred orientations that may be achieved within the scope of the present invention.

The terms inner shell 10 and outer shell 11 do not imply that they must be constructed in one piece. Instead, the inner shell 10 and the outer shell 11 may be composed of several elements, which together form the inner shell 10 and the outer shell 11.

Preferably, but not necessarily, the outer shell 11 and the inner shell 10 are made of sheet metal, in particular steel. However, they may be made of other materials. Preferably, the inner shell 10 and the outer shell 11 are each made of one or more sheets of material, in particular of steel sheet, which have been bent into sections for shaping and on which recesses or the like can be formed by stamping, cutting or the like.

It is further preferred that the outer shell 11 and the inner shell 10 of the frame 1 are formed with a relatively small, i.e. "narrow" construction width B, which is preferably smaller than 20mm, in particular smaller than 15 mm. . The invention is particularly advantageously applicable to such narrow frames 1.

It is necessary to arrange at least one or more functional devices in the cavity 12 and to fix them directly or indirectly to the frame in as simple a manner as possible. These functional means may comprise, for example, one or more attachment fittings for fixing the front or rear panel, but may also comprise other elements.

For this purpose, the functional device has a mounting base 26. The mounting base 26 can also be designed as a baseplate. However, it can also be formed in other ways.

The mounting base 26 should be connected to the inner shell 11 or the outer shell 10 in a simple constructional manner. Where it is connected to the inner shell 10 by one or more mounting adapters 22. This is preferred, but not mandatory. The mounting base 20 may also be connected to the housing 11. Thus, the following description of the preferred embodiment example may thus also use the terms inner and outer shell in reverse, with regard to the attachment of the mounting adapter 22 at the upper edge. It is also contemplated that the same terminology may be used for the lower edge of the frame.

In order to achieve access to the functional elements which are located wholly or partly in the interspace/cavity 12 between the inner shell 10 and the outer shell 11, it is advantageous that the inner shell 10 is movable, preferably with limited displacement, with respect to the outer shell 11. However, this is not a mandatory feature in the context of the present invention.

At the lower edge, the inner shell 10 and the outer shell 11, and optionally also the mounting base 26, can also be connected as desired within the scope of the invention, for example by means of sliding guides and/or associated locking elements.

According to a preferred design, the housing 11 is designed in one piece. However, it can also be designed as a multi-piece body. The housing 11 also has an outer wall portion 13 which substantially or completely forms the visible outer wall of the frame 1.

Preferably, the upper edge 14 of the outer wall section 13 is also bent a total of approximately 180 ° towards the inner shell 10, so that a channel-like upper groove 15 is formed, which in the assembled state opens downwards.

The inner shell 10 may be made in one piece or multiple pieces. Having an inner wall portion 16. The inner wall portion 16 may be aligned parallel to the outer wall portion 13 over a substantial part of its surface or at a slight angle. At its lower part, it may have a groove-like receiving channel 17 to accommodate the edge of the drawer bottom or the like (fig. 1 a).

A cover web 20 is formed on the inner shell 10 (or on the outer shell 11), which cover web 20 completely or partially closes/covers the cavity 12 towards the top.

For this purpose, the upper edge 18 of the inner wall section 17 is bent downward once through 180 °, then extends downward over an area 19, for example a few millimeters, and is bent outward from there at right angles in the direction of the outer shell 11, so that it forms a covering web 20 there.

The cover web 20 and the upper edges of the inner shell 10 and the outer shell 11 form a U-shaped upper receiving channel K1.

Preferably, one or more windows 21 are formed in the cover web 20. These windows 21 may be formed in various ways. According to a preferred variant, they can be formed in such a way as to pass through the slotted hole of the upper receiving channel K1 from top to bottom.

One or more mounting adapters 22 are inserted into the upper receiving channel K1. Preferably, these mounting adapters have an upper adapter body 23, at the bottom of which upper adapter body 23 a projection 24 is adjoined, which projection 24 is designed to preferably penetrate one of the windows 21 in order to be fastened non-forcibly and/or forcibly (in particular by latching) to the receiving channel K1 in the region of the window 21. The adapter body 22 preferably lies flat on the cover web 20. The cross section of the adapter body can also be matched to the receiving groove K1, so that it is located substantially without play, optionally even in a clamping manner, in the receiving groove K1.

The one or more mounting adapters 22 preferably each have at least one or more mounting openings (25). The respective mounting opening 25 extends into the mounting adapter 22 from bottom to top in the mounted position. The corresponding mounting opening 25 may, for example, penetrate the projection 24 perpendicularly from below and extend into the adapter body 22. The corresponding mounting opening 25 can be designed as a slot or, for example, as a blind hole or the like.

In the mounted position, the respective mounting opening 25 serves to receive an upper edge region of at least one mounting base 26, in particular a web 27 or the like. The mounting base 26 may be used as a base for mounting accessories and the like. The mounting base may be designed as a plate with one or more webs 27. The web 27 or webs 27 engage in a mounting opening 25 of a mounting adapter 22 or in mounting openings 25 of mounting adapters 22 in the mounting position, preferably in a clamping and/or latching manner and preferably without play.

In this way, the upper edge of the mounting base 26 is easily aligned in the cavity 12 and held in place well and accurately, e.g., centered in the middle. Therefore, the mounting base 26 can be quickly and easily mounted in this area.

The mounting base 26 may be secured or at least retained in its lower portion in a similar manner or in any other manner. For example, it may have a hierarchy 28 and rest on a corresponding hierarchy 28' of the inner shell 10 belonging to the receiving channel 17. Then, in the assembled state, the mounting base will be placed there and additionally clamped between the inner shell 10 and the outer shell. It may also be attached to one of the

housings

10, 11. Thus, the mounting base 26 can be retained on the inner shell 10 (or the outer shell 11) in its lower or intermediate region in almost any manner.

The upper (and further) mounting adapter 22 may additionally also form a sliding and guiding element, wherein the mounting adapter may have at least one groove 29 open at the top, into which groove the curved upper edge 19 of the housing 11 may engage to form an upper sliding guide with this groove 29.

The mounting adapter 22 can also serve as a fixing base for a covering strip 30 (decorative strip or functional strip) for covering the upper mounting channel and/or for accommodating other functional elements, such as mounting brackets or the like, in particular for mounting the front of a drawer or the like. For this purpose, the mounting adapter can have further fastening means, for example a groove 32 extending from above into the adapter body 23, into which groove 32 the web 31 of the covering strip 30 is inserted.

As already mentioned, the inner and outer shells may preferably (but not necessarily) be made of sheet metal. However, the mounting adapter 22 is preferably made of plastic. However, the mounting adapter may be made of other materials.
