Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device and relevant complementary elements which allow to fix to a wall wood cover ing, composed of side-by-side panels, furniture articles of various types, such as for example brackets, shelves, pieces of furniture, hangers or similar.
  • the device finds specific use in those wall wood coverings in which the side-by-side panels, preferably extending vertically, present between them a separation, or slit,on which the device object of the invention is applied.
  • Such device is composed of a block, substantially parallelepiped and made preferably of plastic material, extending vertically and presenting transversally a width sufficient to penetrate in the slit between two side-by-side panels.
  • the device moreover, presents in the rear part two opposing complanar wings projecting toward the outside, intended to rest against the rear borders of the side-by-side panels.
  • the device presents in the front part a threaded hole for the engagement of a screw, above and below which two projections extend toward the front.
  • Each complementary element independently from its shape and main purpose, is characterized by having: a wall which presses against the external surface of the side-by-side panels under the tightening action of a blocking screw so as to vice, between itself and the rear wings of the device, the thickness of the panels, thus forming sort of a clamp which makes the coupling stable; by having two notches, or seats, suitable to receive the above-mentioned projections of the device itself, so as to create a coupling which hinders the relative rotation between the device and the complementary element, beside setting exactly the position of the latter.
  • Figure 1 is a schematic view of a wood covering used for vertical walls, on which it is possible to apply the device of the invention.
  • a wale 1 To a wale 1 are fixed several wood panels 2, extending vertically with straight longitudinal borders, so that the correct positioning of two adjacent panels generates a slit 3 of predetermined width.
  • These wood panels may be applied to the vertical wall in any suitable way, but preferably by means of the assembling system and relative equipment which are the object of a separate patent application submitted on the same date by the same company.
  • the aim of the invention is that of applying on the wood covering, in a simple and rapid manner so that no particular working experience is needed, furniture articles such as,for example, a shelf 4, a piece of furniture 5, which can be made of any shape and dimensions, and a single hanger 6: naturally other articles may be assembled without for this reason departing from the present invention.
  • the device object of the invention is shown in figure 2. It consists of a block 7 having a substantially parallelepiped shape, extending vertically and with a transversal width only slightly inferior to the slit formed between two panels, as specifically presented with reference to figure 1 .
  • This block 7, which may be obtained by molding a suitable plastic material, is shaped so as to form in the rear part two opposing complanar wings 8 and 9, protruding laterally, and so as to present in the middle of the front part, the opening of a threaded hole 10, above and below which two projections 11 and 12 are provided.
  • the threaded hole 10 may be con stituted by a metallic ring 13 inserted during the molding in the plastic material of the block 7: annular grooves 14 are provided in order to be included in the plastic material and thus to constitute a constraint which prevents the axial slipping of the ring itself.
  • This block 7 is so made as to combine with complementary elements having any shape and purpose but characterized: by being matchable to the device in such a way as to present a blocking screw engaging in the threaded hole 10; by having a flat wall suitable to press against the external surface of the covering panels and to tighten between itself and the rear wings 8 and 9, the thickness of the panels, so that the whole system remains blocked steadily on the panels; and by having two notches, or seats, suitable to receive the projections 11 and 12, thus constituting a coupling which, beside setting exactly the position of one part with respect to the other, serves to hinder the relative rotation.
  • FIG. 3 A first example of the coupling between the device of the invention and a complementary element is given by figure 3, in which the latter is made of a single hanger 15 constitut ed, for example, by a metallic plate shaped so that inferior ly it presents a flat wall 16 suitable to rest against the external surfaces of the two adjacent panels: thus the thick ness of each panel 2 is contained between the rear wings 8 or 9 of the device and the flat wall 16.
  • the blocking screw 17 is represented by a suitably shaped external pin 18 which forms a part of the hanger and continues in the back with the screw 17 so that the tightening can be performed manually.
  • the wall 16 is provided in the rear part of a vertical groove 19 having width equal to the horizontal width of the projec tion 12, so as to receive these projections and to constitute a mutual constraint which hinders the relative rotation of the part 15 with respect to the device itself. It is evident that the wall 16 and the wings 8 and 9 constitute sort of a clamp capable of tightening the panels' thickness by means if the screw 17.
  • Figure 4 which shows the relative position between two panels and the way of applying the device 7 in the slit 3 generated between these panels, relates to the use of an element 20 suitable to support a shelf.
  • This complementary ele ment is composed of a stirrup 21 having a rectangular plan, obtained from a band, or a tape, sheared and suitably shaE ed; the ends of the two arms of this stirrup are completed by a crossbar 22 forming a flat wall, intended to rest against the external surfaces of the panels 2.
  • the stirrup presents a turning stem 23, which on one end protrudes through a hole from the front part 24 of the stir rup and there it presents a slot 25 for the use of a screwdriver, and on the other end it includes a shoulder 26 which, once the stirrup is applied, rests against the cross bar 22.
  • the stem 23 extends with a screw 27, passing through a relevant hole of the crossbar 22.
  • the crossbar 22 presents two notches 28 and 29, suitably shaped and designed to receive exactly the projections 11 and 12 of the device.
  • the assembling is made by applying the crossbar 22 against the panels 2 in such a way that the projections 11 and 12 fit in the corresponding notches 28 and 29 and the screw 27 engages coaxially with the hole 10, so that rotating the stem 23 manually, at least initially, the screw 27 penetrates into the hole 10; finally the screwing can be completed using a screwdriver engaged in the slot 25,thus tightening the panels 2 between the wings 8 and 9 and the crossbar 22.
  • a further example is given by the complementary element 3 1 (shown in figures 6 and 7), capable of supporting the shelf of a piece of furniture.
  • This element 31 is characterized by having a horizontal wall 32 which extends forward by means of two spaced arms between which a middle wall 33 rises vertically.
  • the element is provided in the rear part with a flat vertical surface 34 which presents, both on the upper and lower borders, the corresponding notches 35 and 36 intended to receive the projections 11 and 12 of the device 7, and a middle hole through which a screw 37 can penetrate and engage in the threaded hole 10.
  • the surface 34 is employed to tighten, between itself and the wings 8 and 9 of the device, the thickness of the panels 2 as soon as the blocking of the screw 37 takes place.
