Description

The invention relates to a kit of detachably connectable components of the type specified in the preamble of claim 1, from which, according to needs, individual furniture of different sizes and shapes can be built.

In the known kit (DE-GM 72 26 288), the cover rail is made of transparent material, for example acrylic glass, because it is intended to cover lighting fixtures which are fixed to the inner surface of the mounting rail which faces it. Finally, the inner surface of the mounting rail also serves to anchor holders for base plates with which the interior of the furniture frame can be divided. The combination bar arranged in a corner area of the furniture frame is produced from sections of the support rail and cover rail of the same length. At the ends of such a combination rod corner connectors are attached, which are provided with pins which are inserted into corresponding coupling receptacles of the mounting rail. Such corner connectors come to rest in the corners of the furniture frame and couple the ends of three converging combination rods. The dimension of furniture stells thus results from the partial lengths of two such corner connectors and an interposed combination rod. This creates a frame on each surface side of the furniture frame made up of combination rods which are connected by means of four corner connectors, the frame comprising a wall plate, preferably made of glass, on all sides.

It is disadvantageous that the known kit also requires corner connectors and brackets for the base plates in addition to the plates, support rails and cover rails. Numerous parts must therefore be manufactured, kept ready and handled for the assembly and disassembly of the frame. This leads to expensive production, space-consuming storage and time-consuming and cumbersome handling of the known components.

• Während die Tragschiene durchläuft und mit ihrer Länge die gewünschte Dimension des Möbelgestells bestimmt, wird die Deckschiene aus Abschnitten zusammengesetzt, die eine von der gewünschten Möbelform bestimmte Abschnittlänge aufweisen und in ihrer Gesamtlänge kürzer als die Tragschiene ausgebildet sind, weil sie zwischen sich definierte Lücken bei ihrer Anbringung an der Tragschiene belassen. In diese Lücken werden nun die Bodenplatten eingeführt, die Abschnittlängen entsprechend der gewünschten Höhenlage der Bodenplatten dimensioniert und die Lücken so bemessen, daß an den Stirnenden der Abschnitte die Bodenflächen der Platten zur Anlage kommen. Dadurch kann bei der Erfindung die Deckschiene die neue Funktion übernehmen, zugleich Halteelement für die Bodenplatten im Gestell zu sein. Die mit ihren Stirnenden jeweils die zugehörige Bodenplatte untergreifenden Deckschienen wirken nämlich wie Stützen. Eigene Halterungen für Bodenplatten und zugehörige Kupplungsmittel an der Tragschiene sind überflüssig. Die Erfindung kommt mit äußerst wenigen und leicht zu handhabenden Bauteilen aus, nämlich Platten und Kombinationsstangen. Ein individueller Aufbau des Möbels ist dennoch möglich, weil eine Bodenplatte in jeder gewünschten Höhe positioniert werden kann durch entsprechende Bemessung der Abschnittlänge der Deckschiene oder durch Aufeinandersetzen von geeignet dimensionierten Abschnittteilen an der durchgehenden Tragschiene. Verwendet man als Plattenmaterial Glas, so lassen sich mit der Erfindung Vitrinen herstellen, die einen optimalen Einblick von allen Seiten zulassen; metallische Elemente sind nur in den Kantenbereichen des Möbelgestells angeordnet und bestehen aus der schmalen Kombinationsstange. Weitere die Sicht behindernde Elemente, wie Zargen oder Konsolen zum Halten der Bodenplatten sind bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Bausatz weggefallen.

The invention has for its object to develop a kit of simple, inexpensive components of the type mentioned in the preamble of claim 1, which quickly and easily allow the construction of a piece of furniture with an individual shape and different desired dimensions. This is achieved according to the invention by the measures specified in the characterizing part of claim 1, which have the following meaning:

• While the mounting rail runs through and determines the desired dimension of the furniture frame with its length, the cover rail is composed of sections which have a section length determined by the desired furniture shape and are made shorter in their overall length than the mounting rail because they have gaps defined between them Leave attachment on the mounting rail. The floor slabs are now inserted into these gaps, the section lengths according to the desired altitude the bottom plates dimensioned and the gaps dimensioned so that the bottom surfaces of the plates come to rest at the ends of the sections. As a result, in the invention, the cover rail can take on the new function of being a holding element for the base plates in the frame. The cover rails with their front ends, which engage under the associated base plate, act like supports. Separate brackets for base plates and associated coupling means on the mounting rail are unnecessary. The invention manages with extremely few and easy-to-use components, namely plates and combination bars. An individual construction of the piece of furniture is still possible because a base plate can be positioned at any desired height by appropriate dimensioning of the section length of the cover rail or by placing suitably dimensioned section parts on the continuous mounting rail. If glass is used as the plate material, then showcases can be produced with the invention which allow an optimal view from all sides; metallic elements are only arranged in the edge areas of the furniture frame and consist of the narrow combination bar. Further elements obstructing the view, such as frames or brackets for holding the base plates, have been omitted in the kit according to the invention.

A further simplification of the components is obtained if one uses the clamping means highlighted in claim 2 for tightening the plates in the longitudinal grooves of the mounting rail. As a result, the components in the furniture frame are already held together, which is why end connectors are no longer required in order to produce frame-shaped structures on the side faces of the furniture, which hold the wall panels between them. So it is possible with the invention, only in the vertical edges areas of the piece of furniture to position combination rods and to generally dispense with transverse rods also in the upper and lower edge area of a wall panel. The combination rods according to the invention then only form vertical columns, in which only the longitudinal edges of the wall panels are clamped and in this way already produce optimal transverse stability of the furniture frame. With glass as the plate material, there is an ideal free view into the display case built with the invention. For the strength of the connection and simplification of handling, it is advisable to use the pressure bar according to claim 3 as a clamping means. Applying the wedge shape according to claim 4 results in particularly easy handling and particularly reliable clamping of the plates. The measures of claim 5 prevent the pressure bars from falling out when no plate is inserted and also rule out that the pressure bars can jam when the plates are inserted. Such a mounting rail is always ready for use. In the design according to claim 6, the cover rails also fulfill the further function of making the actuating ends of the pressure screws invisible to the pressure bars.

The free space created in the combination rod between the mounting rail and the sections of the cover rail can be used for various accessories. These also include the arrangement of compartment holders that can be used in addition according to claim 7. Alternatively or additionally, compartment holders with the measures of claim 8 can also be used continuously. The clamping means in the longitudinal grooves of the mounting rail can also be used for the connection of accessories that consist of U-profile rails according to claim 9 and used according to claims 12 and 13 for attaching doors to the furniture frame can be. If self-contained frames hold pivotable or sliding doors, the clamping means instead of the wall panels can hold opposite frame parts, according to claims 14 and 15. A simplification in construction results when the frame parts have a matching cross-sectional profile according to claim 16. Through the measures of claim 17, a sliding guide for sliding doors can be easily converted into a roller guide, and vice versa, without having to use other frame bars.

The longitudinal bores in the main profile according to claim 10 allow the use of higher adjustable feet by screw engagement and the attachment of particularly simple end parts, which are mentioned in claim 11, namely top and bottom caps. Such caps are also useful as an end stop for the front end of an outermost portion of the cover rail. If you use cover rails with a supplementary profile, which also covers the grooves in this section of the mounting rail, it can be used to create a pillar or a plate-free column in the piece of furniture.

The combination rod according to the invention equipped with clamping means can also be used according to claim 18 in order to position the top and bottom base plate in the piece of furniture. This only seems to create a frame made of combination rods, because the individual frame parts are not connected to each other at their point of contact, but come together here loosely. Their cohesion results from the plate because one of these four combination bars is clamped to each edge of the plate. The plate is clamped in the longitudinal grooves the pressure bars used there.

By using in terms of contour and angular position of different groove positions in the profile according to claim 19, there is a particularly large variety of differently designed furniture with relatively few components according to the invention.

The kit for manufacturing a piece of furniture according to the invention, e.g. A showcase 5o from FIG. 1 only comprises combination bars lo arranged in the edge regions of the piece of furniture, which is why they are to be referred to as "pillar lo" in the following. For this purpose, the invention only requires plates which are glass plates in the case of FIG. 1 and are used as vertical wall plates 11, 11 'or floor plates 14, 14', 14 ''. Because the structure is basically the same, it is sufficient to consider an edge area, which is done with reference to FIGS.

The combination rod acting here as a column 10 is longitudinally divided in itself and consists of two rails 2 ₀ , 3 ₀ that complement one another in profile, namely a mounting rail 2o with a main profile 21 shown in FIG. 5 and a cover rail 3o with the supplementary profile shown in FIG. 7 31. the support rail 2o used for corner joint shown in Fig 5 two wall plates 11, 11 'and, therefore, is 12 with two longitudinal grooves 12' out _-. gearing, which have the same formation and are therefore characterized in the further by like reference numerals. The longitudinal groove 12, 12 'serves to receive an elatten edge 13 at a defined depth, the one plate side coming to rest on a stationary profile wall 22 of the main profile 21. Opposite this there is an extension 15 of the groove, in which a pressure bar 16 with the wedge-shaped cross section shown in FIG. 6 is mounted.

The wedge-shaped cross section 17 is outlined in dash-dot lines in FIG. 6 and has the shape of an isosceles right-angled triangle, from which an angled profile nose 18 protrudes. The key wedge tip 19 of FIG. 6, determined by the dash-dotted triangle lines, faces the groove base 23 in the assembly case according to FIG. 5, the profile nose 18 being received in a gap 24 on the groove base 23.

The pressure bar 16 is inserted into the mounting rail 20 from the front end into the groove extension 15, the profile lug 18 being guided longitudinally in the gap 24. The one wedge surface 4o determined by the catheter of the wedge-shaped cross section 17 comes to lie on a flat oblique guide surface 4 ₄ in the main profile 21 of the mounting rail 2o, which delimits the groove extension 16 towards the groove base 23. The other wedge surface 41 produced by the hypotenuse in the wedge-shaped cross section 17 forms a clamping surface pressing against the surface of the inserted plate 11. The end face 42 of FIG. 6 generated by the other catheter in the dash-dotted triangle of the wedge-shaped cross section 17 of the pressure bar 16 faces a profile tab 25 in the main profile 21 of the mounting rail 20, which limits the aforementioned slot extension 15 to the slot opening 26 shown in FIG. 5 .

In these profile tabs 25, as can be seen from FIG. 9, threaded bores 27 are provided at intervals for the screwable reception of pressure screws 28, which have with their actuating ends 29 in the angular range between the two plates 11, 11 'to be mounted according to FIG. 5 and on the outside of the profile tabs 25 are accessible. When screwing in, the pressure screws 28 penetrate into the groove extension 15 in the direction of the arrow 43 in FIG. 5, hit the end face 42 of the pressure bar 16 and push them further in this direction. The pressure pad 16 slides with its one wedge surface 4 _0, which is then useful as a sliding surface, along said guide surface 44 in the supporting rail main profile 21, which surface 44 is parallel to the determined by the arrow 43 direction of action of the impact force. The guide surface 44 diverges towards the slot opening 26 with respect to the plate plane 45 indicated by dash-dotted lines in FIG. 5. The pressure bar 16 consequently shifts as a result of the impact force 43 against the groove base 23 and takes the wall plate 11, 46 received in a U-shaped border strip at the edge 13 in the sense of a deeper engagement in the groove 12 or 12 '. This results in the tendency to pull the wall plates 11, 11 'as deep as possible into the associated grooves 12, 12' and thereby reliably clamp them to their full depth by the pressure strips 16. During this displacement along the guide surfaces 44 there is also a corresponding guiding effect between the profile lugs 18 and the flat surfaces of the gap 24 receiving them. This engagement of the profile lugs 18 ensures that the pressure strips 16 do not come out of the slot openings when the plates 11, 11 'are removed 26 fall out or jam inside the groove. Because of the parallel arrangement of the lugs 18 and sliding surfaces 14 on the pressure bar 16, an undisturbed displacement of the pressure bar 16 in the sense of the impact arrows 43 is nevertheless possible by actuating the pressure screws 28. When clamping, there is corresponding deformation of the soft border strip 46 of the plate 11. This design results in an extraordinarily high clamping strength with which the wall plates 11, 11 'are held in the mounting rail 20.

The support rail 2o extends, as is apparent from FIGS. 1 and 9, over the entire height 47 of the piece of furniture. A plate-shaped lower cap 49, the appearance of which can be seen in FIG. 11, is fastened to the lower end 48 of the mounting rail 20. To secure against rotation, the cap 49 has corner pins 51 which engage in recesses 52 of the profile wall 22 in the case of assembly. A connecting screw 53 is passed through an outer bore in the lower cap 49 and screwed into a corresponding recess 54 in the main profile 21 of the mounting rail 20. Through a Central hole 55 of the cap 49 is a threaded shaft 56 and screwed into a longitudinal bore 57 located in the middle of the main profile 21 with an adjustable depth of engagement. On the threaded shaft 56 there is a roller or a base plate 58 with a round outline according to FIG. 9 or a square outline 58 'according to FIG. 11. This results in a foot 59 which is adjustable in height with respect to the column 10.

In the application of FIG. 1, a horizontally extending base plate is placed on the free corner area 6o of the lower cap 49 visible in FIG. 9, which here forms the underbody 14 of the display case 5o. A further base plate forming an intermediate base 14 'is to be inserted at a defined height distance 61. For this purpose, the cover rail 3o according to FIGS. 7 and 9 is used, which has a special function. The cover rail 3o has namely to perform multiple tasks.

Using a portion of defined length 62 of the cover rail 3 ₀ to the bottom plates 14, 14 is equal to the desired height distance 61 '. Like the mounting rail 2o, the cover rail 3o consists of a metallic material, in particular aluminum, which has a certain elasticity. This can be used to unite the section of the cover rail 3o via snap connections with the main profile 21 of the mounting rail 2o. For this purpose, the positively interlocking profile parts shown in FIG. 7 are used, namely profile lugs 32 formed here by L-shaped simple anglings on the cover rail 3o, according to FIG. 7, which in the case of assembly, as illustrated by the dash-dot position of the cover strip 3o in FIG. 5 is to engage in complementary shoulders 34 of the main rail 21 in the region of the profile tab 25 there. The openings 26 of the two grooves 12, 12 'remain open.

This initially results in the first function of the cover rail 3o with its supplementary profile 31, the longitudinal zones 64 of the main rail 21 of the mounting rail 21 facing the inside of the furniture frame, which can be seen in FIGS. 7 and 9, and thus invisibly visible actuating ends 29 of the pressure screw 28 do. For actuation, however, the pressure screws 28 can be made easily accessible again by removing the sections of the cover rails 3o from the support rails 2o, which can be carried out particularly conveniently by the snap connections. If the material of the cover rails 3o is too rigid to provide sufficient elasticity for such snap connections, the cover rails 3o can in any case be pushed down from the front end of the support rail 2o into the desired height range of the support rail 2o.

In the case of assembly, the lower end face 63 of section 62 of the cover rail according to FIGS. 1 and 9 comes to rest on the upper side of the underbody 14 inserted in the manner described. According to FIGS. 12 and 13, the underside 68 of the next base plate, which in the case of FIG. 1 forms an intermediate floor 14 'in the display case 50, is now placed on the upper end 65 of the cover rail section 62. The cover rail section 62 consequently serves as a support for the sole support of this base plate, which, with its corner region 66 shown in FIG. 13, is placed on the upper front end 65. The plate corner is cut away because of the mounting rail 2o; the cutting edge 67 extends up to the profile tabs 25 of the main rail 21. The cover rail 3o thus fulfills the further function of being a floor support at the same time.

This applies mutatis mutandis to holding the other, as a deck Floor 14 '' used in the display case 5o of Fig. 1, where, corresponding to the height distance 61 'adjacent floor plates there is used a section 62' of corresponding length. Now, as can best be seen from FIG. 12, the lower end face 63 'of the cover rail section 62' is supported on the upper surface 68 'of the intermediate floor 14', while the upper end end 65 'shown in FIG. 1 the lower surface 69 of the subsequent base plate, namely the cover plate 14 ″ of the display case 5o of FIG. 1, is positioned in an analogous manner to FIG. 13.

5 and 7, the main profile 21 of the mounting rail and the supplementary profile 31 of the cover rail 3o include a longitudinal channel 7o between them, which results in the further function of the rails 2 ₀ , 3o to accommodate accessories in this space. In the case of FIGS. 2 ₀ , 21, the longitudinal channel 7o is used for the passage of electrical lines 71 and the reception of lights 72. The electrical lines 71 can be led to the outside through a further hole 73, which can also be seen in the illustration in FIG. 11, in the lower cap 49 belonging to the foot. The lamp 72 is integrated into a corresponding cutout 74 of a cover rail 3o or fastened to the rail 3o with fastening elements.

As shown in FIGS. 9 and 14 and 15, fastening ends 75 can be inserted from conventional compartment holders 76 into holes 77 in the cover rail 30 as additional accessories and serve to support auxiliary floors 78 in the furniture frame according to the invention.

Finally, as shown in FIGS. 25 and 26, the cover rail 3o can have an undercut running longitudinally Groove 79 may be provided, which can be used to clamp various elements, for example the shelf holders 8 ₀ shown there. These compartment holders comprise a hammer head-like fastening part 81 which is passed through the slot of the groove 79 in a longitudinally oriented position and then rotated in the interior of the groove in order to engage behind the groove wall 82 delimiting the groove opening. A threaded shaft 83 protrudes from the slot opening and a threaded bushing 84 belonging to the compartment holder 8o can be screwed onto it. When tightening, the groove wall 82 is clamped between the hammer head 81 and the threaded bushing 84. This can be done at any height of the cover rail 3o. An auxiliary shelf 78 'can in turn be placed on the shelf holder 8o.

For the rest, in FIGS. 12 to ₂₄ slightly differently profiled columns lo 'are used compared to the previous exemplary embodiments of FIGS. 5 to 9, in which the support rails 2 ₀ ' pressure strips 16 'have the same wedge-shaped cross section as the pressure strips 16 described above, 15 without a position securing the groove extensions. The cover rail 3o 'shown in FIG. 15 also has a modified supplementary profile 31' in that the profile lugs 32 'provided on the longitudinal edges of the cover rail 3o' are fork-shaped here and the profile tabs 25 of the mounting rail 2 ₀ '.

The above-mentioned top shelf 14 ", which can be seen from the display case 5o of FIG. 1, is held in place by an upper cap 85 or, as shown in FIG. 10, by an upper cap plate-like shape 85 ', as shown in FIG. 9 in an exploded view. In the case of FIG. 9, the upper cap 85 is provided with a downwardly drawn edge 86, which corresponds to the thickness of the upper end 87 of the mounting rail 20 laid on top 14 ''. The upper cap 85 overlaps the corner region of the top floor 14 ″, which leaves the central longitudinal bore 57 free at the front end 87 of the mounting rail 20. The threaded shaft of a fastening screw 88 passes through a central hole 89 of the upper cap 85 and can be screwed into corresponding threads of the longitudinal bore 57. The head of the fastening screw 88 can be covered with a decorative cover 9o. In this upper cap 85, the top floor 14 ″ comes to lie above the upper edge of the wall plates 11 and 11 ′, as can be seen from the display case 50 of FIG. 1.

When using the upper cap 85 'of FIG. 10, the corner region of the top floor 14' 'is cut away to such an extent that the top floor 14' does not come to rest on the front end 87 of the mounting rail 20, but only on the front end 65 'of the top rails located there - Section 62 'supports. In this case, the top of the top floor 14 "is expediently flush with the front end 87 of the mounting rail 2o and thus also flush with the upper edges of the two wall plates 11, 11 'clamped in the column 2o. The corner region of the top floor 14" is designed similarly, like that of the intermediate floor 14 'shown in Fig. 13. The section length 62' of the cover rail 3o is smaller in comparison with the fastening by means of the cap 85 of Fig. 9, corresponding to the thickness of the top floor 14 ". Because of the aligned position, the upper cap 85 can The upper cap 85 'analogously has a central hole 89', which is penetrated by the fastening screw 88 shown in FIG. 9 when the fastening screw 88 is screwed into the mounting rail 20.

8 is an alternative form 33 of a cover rail shown, which is suitable for producing from the combination rod 10 a leg 92 visible from the table furniture 91 of FIG. 4. This cover rail 33 has a supplementary profile 36 which can be seen in FIG. 8 and which differs from that of the profile rail of FIG. 3o in that approaches 37 are now provided in the rail edge regions, which in the case of installation with the grooves 12, 12 'of the support rail 2o Type of plug cooperate and therefore close the slot openings 26. These approaches 37 comprise two webs, namely an outer web 39 with an outward-facing end thickening 38, which engages in the case of assembly in the mentioned recess 52 of the profile wall 22, and an inner web 35 with an L-shaped profile, which is located on the mentioned heel surface 34 of the profile tabs 25 of the mounting rail 2o is supported, but then continues in the area of the groove extension 16. No pressure strip 16 need be provided in the length regions of such legs 92, because there are no plates or the like to be clamped. In addition, the supplementary profile 36 of the cover rail 33 is of an angular design, similar to that ₃ 1 of FIG. ₇ , whereby a longitudinal channel 7o is included with the support rail 2o here. In the apex area of the supplementary profile 36, a part-circular recess 182 is provided, into which connecting screws 98 can be inserted if necessary. This application is illustrated in FIGS. 16 and 17.

16 and 17 show views and sections for the use of the cover rail 33 in an analogous manner, as FIGS. 12 and 13 do with the alternative shape of the cover rail 3o. 16 and 17 show the short legs 92 'visible in the display cabinet 93 from FIG. 2, which are formed by the lowest length of the combination rod 10 here. For this purpose, the one shown in FIG. 16 can be seen at the lower end Support rail 2o a section 94 of the cover rail 33 fastened by pushing it from the lower front end 48 of the support rail 2o with its lugs 37 into the grooves 12, 12 'of the support rail 2o' there until the lower end face 95 of the cover rail section 94 is flush with the lower end 48 of the support rail 2o 'mentioned. A plate-shaped foot cap 96 can therefore be used, which covers the support rail end 48 and the cover rail end surface 95. The foot cap 96 can be fastened in a manner analogous to that of the upper cap 85 'shown in FIG. 10 by means of a fastening screw 88 which can be used analogously to FIG. 9 and which can again be screwed into an internal thread of the central longitudinal bore 57 of the mounting rail 20'.

16, 17, the upper end face 97 of the cover rail section 94 also serves as a support for a base plate used here as an underbody 14, which has a cut corner area, as shown in FIG. 17, with which it is attached again the profile tab 25 of the mounting rail 2o 'comes to rest. To additionally secure the position of the underbody 14, a fastening screw 98 is screwed through the floor and engages in the cutout 182 in the profile 36 of this cover rail 33, already mentioned in connection with FIG. 8. In the case of the display cabinet 93, wall plates 11, 11 'are then clamped again in the subsequent section of the column, as can be seen from FIGS. 2 and 16. For this purpose, pressure strips in the grooves of the mounting rail 2o 'are again required. In order to secure their longitudinal position in the corresponding section of the mounting rail 2 ₀ ′, the L-shaped inner webs 35 in the edge-side projections 37 of the cover rail 33 are useful because they protrude into the groove extensions 16 as an obstacle. The bottom end The inserted pressure bar 16 therefore comes to rest in the area of the groove widening 16 on the upper end face 97 of the cover rail section 94. The cover rail 33 is thus on the one hand support for the underbody 14 and on the other hand support for the pressure bar 16 to be located in the overlying section of the mounting rail 2o. According to the end piece forming the legs 92 ', the following section 99 of the column is produced in the display cabinet 93 from FIG lo 'a corner connector for the wall plates 11, 11'. In the subsequent length sections of the column lo ', there can now be any change between the formation of the main leg and the formation of corner connectors.

In the case of the exhibition cabinet 93 from FIG. 2, length pieces 100, 100 ′, 100 ″ then follow again, which form the function of a supporting leg and therefore cover rails 33 of the profile shape shown in FIG. 8 are used in this area. Between these lengths, however, the cover rails again hold two base plates lol, lol 'through their support function, as has already been described for the sub-floor with reference to FIGS. 16 and 17. Finally, in the display cabinet 93 there is again a length piece 99 'as the upper end, where the column lo' again takes on the function of a corner connector in order to clamp boards lo2 serving as the upper end of the cabinet over corresponding short pressure strips.

In Fig. 3 a designed with the inventive kit dresser 1 ₀ 3 is shown, which column lo in the lower region serves as a corner joint, where it forms a closable by a hinged door 1 ₀ 4 lo5 cabinet part. Above the cabinet part lo5 there is again a section of the column lo which serves to form a support leg loo and which has an open compartment in the dresser 1 ₀ 3 from

Fig. 3 creates. These sections 1 ₀ 5, loo are delimited at the top and between them again by base plates lol, lol '. In the height region of the cabinet part lo5, a section of the cover rail 3o from FIG. 7 is used, while in section loo a section of the other cover rail 33 from FIG. 8 is used again. The attachment of the door lo4 in the cabinet part lo5 of the dresser lo3 takes place via hinges 1 ₀ 6, the appearance and installation of which can be seen from FIGS. 18 and 19.

18 and 19, the hinge lo6 is connected by a mounting strip 1 ₀ 7, which expediently has the same profile as a stop bar 108, which serves as a stop for the closing movement of the free end of a door leaf 104 and in Fig. 19 in cross section is shown. The stop bar lo8 and the mounting bar lo7 have mutually offset edge zones llo, 111, one of which is thickened and forms an insert which can be inserted into the groove of the mounting rail 2o 'and which can be provided, for example, with a longitudinal rib profile in order to prevent a pressure bar 16' to be easier to pinch, while the other edge zone is thin and one after assembly. the profile of the mounting rail 2 ₀ 'protruding tongue. The strips lo7, 108 are thus clamped to the mounting rail 20 'like the wall plates 11. The mounting bar lo7 differs from the stop bar lo8 only in that a recess 112 is cut into the thickened edge zone llo of the bar, which is designed according to the dimension of the one wing 113 of the hinge 106. The hinge wing 113 can already be firmly connected to the mounting bar lo7 beforehand by screws which engage in bores 114 in the strip 107 and in the hinge wing 113. The other hinge wing 115 is of course on the door sheet 1 ₀ 4 attached, which, as with the showcase 5o by _F ig. 1, consists of a glass plate here. Therefore, the glass fasteners 116 shown in FIG. 19 are used, namely a screw that penetrates the door leaf lo5, which engages in a clamping piece 117 that is displaceable in a guide in the hinge leaf 115 and on the opposite side with a fastening cap the door leaf lo5 against the south hinge leaf 115 presses.

The door 104 can be provided on its free edge, as the showcase 5o of FIG. 1 shows, with a key-operated lock 1 ₀ 9, the locking element of which can cooperate with the tongue 111 mentioned on the stop bar 108.

28 to 31 show an alternative possibility for arranging pivotable doors lo4 '. Here are lo4 'pairs used the doors, but it is understood that in an analogous manner, a single door as shown in _FIGS. 3o could be used. The doors lo4 'are enclosed in a ring by a frame 118, which consists of frame webs 119 with the same profile, the appearance and profile of which can best be seen from FIGS. 29 and 30. The frame webs 119 initially have a thickened edge zone 12o with a longitudinal cavity 121 and a thin edge zone, which forms an angled tongue 122 serving as a stop. To form the frame 10, the frame webs 119 are mitred, as shown by the section lines 123 in FIG. 29, and connected by an insertion angle, the angle legs of which each engage in the cavity 121 of the two frame webs 119 to be connected. The engagement position of the angle legs is secured by screws 125 which are screwed through the profile wall of the hollow edge zone 12o and with their screw ends in the associated assembly engage notches 126 in the two legs of the insertion angle 124.

The two doors lo4 'are now installed in such a frame 118, so that a complete, preassembled structural unit as shown in FIG. 28 is thus created which, as an element of the kit according to the invention, can be installed quickly and easily when building furniture. Hinges lo6 'of different design compared to the exemplary embodiment of FIGS. 18 and 19 are used here, the appearance of which can best be seen from FIGS. 29 and 30. The hinge lo6 'comprises a first shoe shaped hinge wing 115', wherein the lower or upper edge portion is received in the corner of the door panel lo4 ', as best seen in FIG. 3, _0, 31 is apparent. The door leaf is attached by clamping or gluing. The other hinge wing 113 'is mounted on the inside of the frame webs 119 by means of fastening screws 127, which penetrate into the profile cavity 121 through corresponding bores 128. The hinge leaf 113 'also carries the housing of a door closer 129, which cooperates with the associated door leaf lo4' during its pivoting movement and thereby ensures the full closed position and / or open position of the door. In order to accommodate the housing of the door closer 129, a frame web 119 is provided with a cutout 13o in the fastening area of the hinge lo6 '.

To mount the frame 118, only the vertical frame webs 119 carrying the hinges lo6 ', which lie opposite one another, need to be inserted into a groove 12 in the mounting rail 20 of a column lo used for furniture construction and clamped in place in the manner already described several times by the pressure bar 16 there will. The result can be seen from the perspective representation of FIG. 31. In the case of Fig. 3o in the right area is possible Liche alternative embodiment of a frame 118 'shown, where a single door lo4' is used and therefore the frame web 119 there only produces stop effects for the free end. For a soft stop, the stop tongue 122 of the frame web 119 is covered with a soft, elastic stop band 131.

32 to 36 show a preassembled unit of doors corresponding to the embodiment of FIGS. 28 to 3o, which, however, are designed here as sliding doors 132. Although a pair of doors is provided in FIG. 32, it should be understood that any number of sliding doors 132 can be enclosed in such a frame 133 in the manner described below.

The structure of the frame 133 carried kanryin manner analogous to Fig. 29 of frame bars 134, which have mutually a same profile configuration that best ig from _F. 33 can be seen.

Here, too, the frame web 134 comprises an edge zone to be inserted as an insertion part 135 in the associated mounting rail 2o, which, as illustrated in FIG. 33, is clamped in the manner already described in connection with FIG. 3o in the vertically extending web parts of the frame 133 by means of the pressure bar 16 can be. This insertion part 135 also has the cavity already described for the frame web 119 for receiving the respective leg of an insertion angle 124 used for mounting the frame 133. The profile of the frame web 134 also has a guide part 136 which points inwards into the frame opening 137 and there one or generates multiple guideways 138 for the sliding doors 132. 34 to 36 show two alternatives for a frame 133, 133 'which can be produced with the same frame webs 134.

In the case of FIGS. 34, 35, the sliding doors 132 are guided as sliders. To improve the sliding of the doors, sliding bands 139 are inserted on the bottom of the guideways 138 of the lower frame web, on which the sliding narrow doors 132 are supported.

36, on the other hand, sliding doors 132 'are to be displaced by rolling friction. For this purpose, a driving bar 14o is drawn over the lower edges of the doors 132, in which rollers 141 are rotatably mounted. Now a combined running rail 142 is inserted into the guideways 138 of the frame web 134 coming to rest below in the frame 133 ', on which the running rollers 141 roll. As can be seen, the same profiles of the frame webs 134 can optionally be used for a rolling movement of sliding doors 132 ′ or a sliding movement of such doors 132.

In Figs. 1 to 2o rods lo, lo 'have been used, in which the associated mounting rails 2 ₀ , 2o' allow two wall plates 11, 11 'to run at right angles to one another. It is of course possible to develop bars that hold a larger number of plates or where the plates are arranged at a different angle to each other. This is explained in more detail with reference to FIGS. 22 to 24.

22 shows a combination bar 143, the mounting rail 144 of which is clamped in grooves 12, 12 ', 12 "for connecting three wall plates 145, 145', 145" by means of their own pressure screws 28 and pressure bars 16 '. Here, the mounting rail 144 an approximately T-shaped main profile 146, where the longitudinal grooves enclose a 90 ° angle with one another. The direction of actuation for screwdrivers or the like for rotating the pressure screws 28 is therefore in the middle of the angle between two wall plate pairs 145, 145 'and 145', 145 "and therefore allows easy handling when clamping and unclamping the wall plates. The main profile 146 has the profile tabs 25 already described in the preceding mounting rail 20 in a paired arrangement between each 15 or 8 - the profile 143 can be supplemented by the cover rail 30 or 33 already explained in Fig. 15 or 8. In addition to a central longitudinal bore 57, the main profile 146 also has an eccentric cavity 147, which also closes Fastening purposes or for guiding cables can be used in the bar 143. The bar 143 serves as an intermediate column in order to create a cabinet part of a piece of furniture on each side.

The rod 143 'shown in FIG. 23 differs from the rod lo mentioned at the outset in two respects. First of all of the wall panels 11, 11 'serving grooves 12, 12' arranged in the associated support rail 144 'at an angle 148 of 12 ° to one another are ₀ for the two recording. Another difference lies in a different profile outline of the mounting rail 144, which instead of the channel 149 from FIG. 22 and the edge 15o visible in the mounting rail 20 ′ in FIG. 21 has an arcuate curvature 151. Towards the interior of the angle 148, the profile 146 'of the mounting rail 144' again has a pair of profile tabs 25 ', in which threaded holes for pressure screws 28 are again cut, each of which acts on its own pressure strips 16' in order to clamp the wall plates 11, 11 '. The actuating ends of the pressure screws 28 are also covered here by a cover rail 152 which cooperates with the free ends of the profile tabs 25 'in a snap-like manner and which is useful for supporting base plates (not shown in more detail).

In the exemplary embodiment of FIG. 24, a rod 143 ″ is shown, which also differs from the original rod 10 in two respects, already mentioned in FIG. 23. Here, a mounting rail 144 is used, which has in its profile 146 ″ two longitudinal grooves 12, 12 ′ arranged at an angle of 6 °, as indicated by the angle designation 148 ′ in FIG. 24. One with this rod equipped piece of furniture, the two wall panels 11, 11 'thus run at an acute angle to one another. In the area of the angle apex, the profile 146 "of this mounting rail 144" is provided with a groove 153. In addition to the central longitudinal bore 57, the mounting rail profile 146 ″ also has further longitudinally extending cavities 154, which are provided partly for reasons of material savings and partly for assembly purposes. Such bores and cavities can also be used for the frontal connection of individual pieces of the support rods 144 ″ in order to extend them. Of course, this is possible with all the above-mentioned rods.

25 to 27, a wall plate 11 is clamped in one groove 12 in the manner described, but in the other groove 12 'there is a specially profiled U-rail 155, which has a group of elongated holes 157 in its apex region 156 has, which is why this rail is briefly referred to below as "perforated rail" 155. As shown in the cross-sectional view of FIG. 25, the one U-leg 158 is designed to be stretched and, in the case of assembly, lies smoothly against the profile wall 122 of the mounting rail 20. The other U-leg 159, on the other hand, is profiled, specifically in accordance with the wedge-shaped outline of the pressure bar 16. When the pressure screw 28 is tightened, the screw end abuts a shock-absorbing one arranged in front of the associated profile tab 25 _S chenkelzone 161. A further end of the leg 159 toward opposite leg zone 160 is disposed at the gleitwirksam already described in connection with FIG. 5, the guide surface 44 and is guided there during tightening the pressure screw 28. 162 thereby pushes a bent leg tip in the groove base at an edge 163 in the _T RAG rail profile 21 'is formed at the crossing point of the groove 12 to the gap 24th This causes the U-leg 159 to be clamped in the groove 12 '.

The perforated rail 155 can be used in the usual way for attaching accessories. In the case of FIG. 27, the perforated rail 155 is used to fasten a support arm 164, which engages with a hook end 165 in a selected elongated hole 157 and engages behind the apex wall 156 below, but is supported on the front side of this apex wall 156. The support arm 164 can, as shown in FIG. 27, hold a shelf 166 at the desired height.

Such a perforated rail 155 brings a further possibility of variation in the kit according to the invention. The rod 10 can thus be quickly converted into shelf holders if such a perforated rail 155 is clamped in the groove 12 'instead of a wall plate. In this way, height areas of a piece of furniture can be provided with free shelves 166, the height spacing of which can be changed from one another by correspondingly moving the support arms 164.

FIG. 37 shows a variant 167 of the showcase 50 shown in FIG. 1, which is equipped with a pivotable door lo4 and has four base plates 168 to 170 ″. Above the bottom plate serving as sub-floor 168 are three intermediate floors 17o, 17o ', 170'' corresponding long sections 171, 171 ', 171''and171''' of the cover rail 3o according to FIGS. 9 to 13 are supported, which supplements the profile of the continuous support rail 2o into the interior of the display case. 37 is that the upper and lower edge area of the vertically extending wall plates 173, 173 'clamped in the corner columns 10 is also clamped by such connecting rods 174 to 174'''. For the better appearance, the abutting ends of the vertical columns lo and the horizontal rod sections 174 to 174 "" are mitered so that the two wall plates 173, 173 'located on opposite sides in the display case 167 are bordered by a dummy frame are, the individual frame spars are not connected to form a stable frame, as is the case, for example, for the door frame according to FIGS. 28, 29.

• Die horizontalen Stangenabschnittel74 bis 174''' besitzen das im Zusammenhang mit Fig. 5 erläuterte Hauptprofil 21, welches auch bei den Tragschienen 2o der Säulen lo vorkommt und zwei Längsnuten 12, 12' mit Druckleisten 16 aufweist. Deswegen greift beim Stangenabschnittl74 in die eine Nut der obere Plattenrand 172 der vertikalen Wandplatte 173, während in die andere Nut des Stangenabschnitts174 der Randbereich 175 des Deckbodens 169 eingreift und dort durch die zugehörige eigene Druckleiste 16 in Analogie zu Fig. 5 festgeklemmt wird. Die entsprechende Verbindung entsteht auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite durch den horizontalen Stangenabschnitt174' zwischen der dortigen vertikalen Wandplatte 173' und dem anderen Randbereich 175' des Deckbodens ₁₆₉. Dadurch ist der Abstand zwischen den gegenüberlie- g_enden Wandplatten 173, 173' über die Stangenabschnitte 174, 174' mittels des Deckbodens 169 zusätzlich festgelegt.

The horizontal bar sections. Rather, 174 to 174 '''are arranged without a connection at the ends of the vertical columns lo and yet contribute to a noticeable increase in the stability of the display case 167 for the following reason:

• The horizontal rod sections 74 to 174 '''have the main profile 21 explained in connection with FIG. 5, which also occurs in the support rails 20 of the columns 10 and has two longitudinal grooves 12, 12' with pressure strips 16. For this reason, the upper plate edge 172 of the vertical wall plate 173 engages in the one groove of the rod section 174, while the edge region 175 of the top floor 169 engages in the other groove of the rod section 174 and is clamped there by the associated own pressure bar 16 in analogy to FIG. 5. The corresponding connection is created on the opposite side by the horizontal rod section 174 'between the vertical wall plate 173' there and the other edge region 175 'of the top floor ₁₆₉ . As a result, the distance between the gegenüberlie- g _e nding wall panels 173, 173 also set 'over the rod portions 174, 174' by means of the deck panel 169th

Correspondingly, underbody 168 is clamped on both sides by means of the horizontal rod sections 174 ″ and 174 ″ there, which also increases the distance and the stability of the display case 167. As already mentioned, this takes place without a special connection of the horizontal bar sections 174 to 174 '' 'with the vertical columns lo. The position of these bar parts lo to 174' '' forming the mentioned dummy frame is rather created by the common clamping on the plate 173 on the one hand and 173 'on the other.

The fastening principle explained in FIG. 37 is modified in FIG. 38, where an alternative form of a display case 167 'is shown, where the same reference numerals as in FIG. 37 have been used to designate corresponding components, for which reason the associated description applies in this respect. The difference is that instead of the vertical columns of Fig. 37, the display case 167 'of Fig. 38 uses both horizontal bar sections 177 to 177 "''as the upper and lower boundaries of the front door lo4 and the rear vertical wall plate 176 are. This in turn creates false frames in the area of the top floor 169 and the bottom floor 168 in the display case 167 ', although here too the rod sections are not necessarily in permanent connection with one another. In addition to the already mentioned in connection with Fig engagement described effects. 37 of the rod portions 174-174 '''engages the _S tangenabschnitt177 with one of its groove by clamping on the upper edge of the rear wall 176, while the other groove of the _S tangenabschnitts177 the rear Randbe rich 178 of the top floor 169 borders. The front bar section 177 'of the showcase 167' of FIG. 38 is used only with respect to its one groove 12 to hold the front edge region 178 'of the top floor 169, while the other groove remains empty because the upper edge of the pivotable door 104 is in front of it emotional. This groove only holds the cabinet-side wings of the door hinge 179 which are formed here in a special way.

In an analogous manner, the underbody 168 of the display case 167 'according to FIG. 38 is clamped by the further corresponding rod sections 177' 'and 177' ''. The vitrine 167 'thus obtains its stability from the top and bottom base plates, namely on the one hand the underbody 168 and on the other hand the top floor 169. This takes place through the mediating effect of the rod sections 174 to 174 "" on the one hand and 177 to 177 "" on the other hand without these having to be in permanent connection with each other. The display cabinet 167 'can be assembled and disassembled extremely quickly with a minimum of metal material. The metallic material is concentrated in the apparent frame of the above-mentioned rod sections 174 to 177 '' 'in the head and foot of the display case 167', which lie completely outside the field of vision of the viewer. The glass panels for the walls 173, 173 ', 176, the door lo4 and the shelves 17o to 170' 'provide an optimal, completely unimpeded view into the showcase 167', because even the longitudinal edges of this showcase 167 'are kept free of vertical columns . A particularly favorable implementation of the invention is achieved therein.

Possible intermediate shelves 17o to 170 '' are positioned in the display case 167 of Fig. 38 by rods 18o, which are located on the rod sections in the area of the bottom and top floors 168, 169 are supported and carry floor supports 181, which are preferably adjustable in height. The bars 18o can be guided along the edges of the intermediate floors 17o to 170 '', from which the floor supports 181 engage under the floor surfaces, but alternatively can also be passed through incisions or bores in the edge regions of the intermediate floors 17o to 17o ''. Another variant is to carry out holding pins through lateral bores in the wall plates 173, 173 ', on which the intermediate floors 17o to 170''are supported.

37 and 38, it is not necessary to arrange the rod sections 174, 174 'running in the depth direction of the display case horizontally. With the principles explained, it is easily possible for the top floor 169 in the showcases 167, 167 'to be inclined in the manner of a "pent roof". This is achieved by making the one pair of columns lo, which holds the rear wall plate, longer than the pair of columns arranged on both sides of the door lo4. Then the two rod sections 174, 174 'rise obliquely to the rear and enclose an obtuse angle with the front pillar lo and an acute angle with the longer rear pillar lo.

The wedge-shaped cross section 17 of the pressure bar 16 could also be designed differently from FIG. 6, which is why the groove extension 15 in the associated combination rod lo or lo 'is of course also given a matching complementary shape. This is explained in Fig. 6 a for example. The pressure bar 183 is produced from two different materials, as can be seen from the hatching, namely a core zone 184 consisting of relatively hard material, which produces the actual wedge, and an edge zone 185 consisting of soft material. For this purpose, PVC is used, for example, in the case of the Core zone 184 has a Shore hardness of 100 and Shore hardness of 70 at the edge zone 185.

The two zones 184, 185 are extruded next to one another and then brought together in a common tool, as a result of which they are firmly connected to one another at the contact point 186. At the edge zone 185, which has an undercut 187, a flexible tab 188 is formed, which comes to rest when the pressure rail of the associated groove extension 15 is mounted on the groove base 18 and thus forms a soft stop surface when inserting the plate 11, which then on the Binding strip 46 shown in FIG. 5 can be dispensed with. It is then sufficient to provide a soft plastic band in the edge region 13 of the plate 11 on the fixed wall of the groove 12. The free end face 189 of this flexible flap 188 lies against this fixed groove wall and thus secures the position of this pressure bar 183.

Finally, this pressure bar 183 is also provided with a rigid nose 190, which has flat side walls 191, which bear on corresponding flat flanks of a gap which is provided in this area of the associated groove extension 15, which is not described in more detail is shown in the drawings. This creates a guiding effect on the pressure bar 83 when it is moved by its pressure screws in the manner explained in FIG. 5. As can be seen from the dash-dotted frame of the wedge shape, the wedge tip 192 is not physically present here, but should be thought in the area of the foot piece of the flap 188. When the pressure bar 183 is moved, the flexible tab 188 can have an excess length which can then be pressed into a recess in the groove base 18 in the form of a fold if the associated main profile 21 from FIG. 5 is designed in this area. This recess is then located at the attachment point of the gap 24 shown in FIG. 5 for the pressure bar 16 there.
