Description

Side plate connecting piece for modular combined cabinet

Technical Field

The present application relates to the field of home decoration, and in particular to a side panel connector for a modular combination cabinet.

Background

In the conventional decoration process, the cabinet is the work item with the longest manufacturing period. In order to make the cabinet completely fit the size of the kitchen, the cabinet needs to be measured twice in the decoration process, the first measurement is carried out in the state of a kitchen blank after the decoration is started, and then the overall size of the cabinet and the division of each functional module are designed, such as the size and the position of a basin and the size and the position of a stove and a range hood are determined; and then providing a design drawing for a user to confirm, wherein the time for repeating the ruler for the second time is to accurately measure after the tile pasting work of the kitchen wall surface is finished, and then adjust the actual product size to a cupboard production plant and a cupboard table-board production plant to start the links of scheduling and production. This cycle takes 35-45 days and is ultimately shipped to the user's home for installation. Conventional finishing may take more than 2 months. Meanwhile, because data are repeatedly measured in the process and the sizes of all cabinets are different, errors often occur in the production and processing process, and the whole decoration period is prolonged.

Therefore, in the prior art, the personalized customization overall period is too long; personalized customization cannot be carried out in batch production, boards used by the cabinet cannot be reasonably spliced, the waste rate of boards with finished specifications cannot be reduced, and meanwhile, the production efficiency cannot be improved, so that the cost cannot be reduced along with the increase of the yield; because of the need for repeated measurements and errors in data recording and transmission, cabinet processing errors can reach as high as 40%, with the associated increase in the cost of rework and shipping and service overhead, which are also included in the user quotes, thereby increasing the user's cost.

Disclosure of Invention

In order to solve the problems that the cabinet is long in period and easy to make mistakes in the construction process in the decoration process, a new scheme is provided in the application, the cabinet is made into a standard product with uniform specification and definite function distinction, and the size and the function are strictly fixed so as to meet the user requirement of pursuing decoration efficiency. In particular, the cabinet is complicated to manufacture, and the above problems can be solved by standardizing the cabinet and assembling the modules.

In particular, the present application provides a side plate connector for a modular combined cabinet, characterized in that the connector is in the form of a clip for clipping between the side plates of two cabinet modules to fixedly connect the two cabinet modules, the clip being a steel sheet having an elastic, substantially U-shaped profile.

Furthermore, a fixing groove is formed in the upper section of a cabinet body side plate of the cabinet module, and the bottom sheet of the U-shaped steel sheet is installed in the fixing groove in a matched mode.

Furthermore, the lower ends of the two side plates of the U-shaped steel plate of the buckle are bent inwards to extend buckle sections, and the buckle sections can be inserted into side plate hole grooves of the cabinet module.

Furthermore, the two side pieces of the buckle are respectively provided with a screw hole, and the two screw holes are asymmetrically arranged.

The technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the application can have the following beneficial effects: the connecting piece is simple to use and firm to install, and can be convenient for the assembly of the modular combined cabinet, so that the assembly of the assembly decoration is more convenient and quick, the waiting period for the installation of the cabinet is greatly reduced, and the connecting piece can be perfectly applied to the assembly decoration within 15 days.

It is to be understood that both the foregoing general description and the following detailed description are exemplary and explanatory only and are not restrictive of the application.

In modular cabinets, immobilization of function and size is key to improving time efficiency and reducing rework. By studying the shape and size of the main kitchens on the market, it has been found that most (e.g. 90%) cabinets are C-shaped, L-shaped and in-line shaped, as shown in fig. 1, 2 and 3, where the dimensions are exemplary, e.g. the in-line transverse length may also be 2400mm or 1600 mm. Through research and analysis on the main functions of the cabinet, the core functions of the floor cabinet are determined to comprise a basin and a cooking bench, and the common functions comprise a seasoning cabinet, an oven and a dish-washing machine. Through a large amount of research and analysis comparison, it is determined that for kitchens of different sizes, basins and cooking benches of standard sizes can be selected according to the requirements met by the sizes of the kitchens in the core function, or when the sizes are lower than a certain fixed size, miniature basins and cooking benches can be selected.

In particular, the standard modulus of the cabinet module is divided into: the six specifications of 1000mm, 800mm, 600mm, 400mm, 300mm and 200mm, which are combined with the core function and the common function, form a fixed combination as shown in fig. 4-26, wherein the number in each specification represents the size in the length direction, for example, which can meet the combination requirement of most (e.g. 90%) of the conventional kitchens at present.
