Definitions
- the invention relates generally to the furniture industry, and more particularly to a new furniture structure, facilitating the transport and assembly of the furniture.
- the present invention specifically aims to avoid the drawbacks of the prior art, by simplifying the problems of transport and assembly of furniture, while allowing a secure and permanent assembly of this furniture without the use of accessory elements.
- the invention therefore provides a foldable piece of furniture, comprising a body constituted by panels hinged to each other in the manner of a deformable parallelogram, end panels closing, in the unfolded position of the body (in which said body is in the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped) the open faces of the body, and means for retaining the body panels in this unfolded position, characterized in that one of the retaining means is constituted by one of the end panels of the cabinet , for example forming the lower horizontal wall of the cabinet, which comprises an element which fits without play in the opening delimited by the corresponding edges of the panels of the cabinet body in the unfolded position thereof.
- this element is formed by a plate of appropriate dimensions which is integral with the base or the seat of the piece of furniture.
- another retaining means is constituted by the other end panel of the piece of furniture, which comprises a housing in which the corresponding edges of the pieces of furniture body panels fit without play the unfolded position of it.
- the panels constituting the body are hinged to each other by means of hinges "with inserts", which are invisible from the outside and from the inside of the cabinet in the unfolded position of the body of furniture.
- This arrangement does not harm the aesthetics of the furniture, by concealing the means of articulation of the body panels.
- the furniture shown in the drawings essentially comprises a body 1, and two end panels 2 and 3, which respectively form the lower horizontal wall and the upper vertical wall of the furniture.
- the body 1 consists of four panels 4-7, hinged together so as to form a parallelogram, and which more specifically comprise: a front panel 4, a side panel 5, a rear panel 6, and another side panel 7.
- Hinges, of the insert type allow the body 1 to be folded and unfolded, as shown in FIGS. 3 to 5, and are mounted between the various panels so as to be invisible from the outside and from the inside of the cabinet when the cabinet is in the unfolded position shown in FIG. 3.
- the lower end panel 2 is formed, in the example shown, of a rectangular plate 8, the dimensions of which correspond substantially to the internal dimensions of the furniture body 1, in the unfolded position thereof.
- the underside of the plate 8 is secured, by any suitable means, to the base or the seat of the piece of furniture, which here consists of four feet 9 fixed under the plate 8, in the vicinity of the corners thereof.
- the plate 8 is intended to come to fit inside the opening delimited by the lower horizontal edges of the four panels of the cabinet, the interlocking being done without play and preferably slightly by force.
- the feet 9 are provided slightly projecting beyond the contour of the plate 8, so as to form stops on which the lower horizontal edges of the four panels of the furniture body will come to bear, when the plate 8 is fitted in the lower opening of the furniture body, to keep it in the unfolded position or assembly position.
- the other end panel 3, forming the upper horizontal wall of the cabinet, comprises a housing 10, the internal dimensions of which are substantially equal to the external dimensions of the cabinet body in its unfolded position, so that the upper part of the body furniture can fit without play or slightly force in the housing 10 of the top panel 3.
- this furniture structure according to the invention allows, in addition to easy and economical transport, a secure and permanent assembly of the furniture, which is not likely to be disassembled accidentally, since, in the service position, it rests on its base which is itself secured to a means for holding or blocking the piece of furniture in the service position.
- manufacturing tolerances which was one of the major drawbacks of the art pre - higher in relation to end panel assembly, facilitate the contrary, according to the invention, and even reinforce the assembly permanent piece of furniture, since one of the end panels comprises an element which fits inside the body of the furniture, and the other end panel comprises a housing which fits on the outside of the furniture body. It is thus guaranteed to obtain, in all cases, a solid assembly of the piece of furniture.
- This assembly can naturally be then reinforced, in a conventional manner, by connecting elements added between the panels of the body of the cabinet and the end panels, and / or by intermediate boards defining shelves in the cabinet, etc.
- the panels are made of wood, but that the piece of furniture could be made of any desired material.
