Definitions
- the invention relates to a foot for office furniture with an essentially bridge-like foot body, which is supported at both ends via contact surfaces on the floor and is provided with upwardly projecting connecting elements for connection to a frame of the office furniture.
- the feet required as part of an office furniture program differ primarily in the way the foot is extended forward or backward.
- the feet used for desks and work tables should have a large projection to the front, ie towards the user, so that the table is also supported in the area of the front edge of the table, but at the same time there is sufficient legroom on both sides.
- the foot should have only a small projection both to the rear and to the front and should be adapted to the depth of the furniture.
- the object of the invention is to design a base for office furniture of the type mentioned at the outset in such a way that adaptation to the various requirements is made possible using as few different parts as possible.
- the foot body is divided transversely to its longitudinal direction into two foot sections and that the two foot sections are detachably connected to each other.
- the split version of the foot ensures that by providing only two different versions of the foot sections, namely a wide protruding shape and a less protruding shape, feet can be created for all requirements within the framework of a office furniture program by combining these two versions of foot sections .
- the foot for a desk or work table can be composed of a rear short, ie less protruding foot section and a front longer, ie wide protruding foot section. Only two short foot sections are combined for a shelf, while two long foot sections are combined for a conference table.
- foot sections are smaller than a one-piece foot body and can therefore be manufactured more easily and at lower cost, for example as injection molded parts.
- the two foot sections have mutually directed and butt abutting connection strips, onto each of which a connecting lug bridging the joint is screwed.
- these two connecting straps are positively received in lateral recesses of the connecting strips.
- a rigid connection of the two foot sections to the connecting straps is thus achieved without the bending forces having to be taken over by the screw connections.
- the transmission of the bending forces takes place exclusively through the positive connection of the connecting lugs in the lateral recesses.
- the screw connection only serves to hold the connecting lugs in these recesses. Therefore at each end the Connection straps a single screw connection. This simplifies assembly.
- the invention is based on one
- Fig. 1 is a side view of a foot for office furniture
- FIG. 2 shows a section along the line II-II in FIG. 1.
- the foot 1 shown in the drawing is intended, for example, for a desk and is attached to the lower end of a side cheek 2 of the desk, which is only indicated in FIG.
- the foot 1 has a bridge-like foot body 3 which extends from a rear (i.e. facing away from the user) footprint 4 to a front footprint 5.
- the two contact surfaces 4, 5 are formed by height adjustment screws 4a and 5a.
- the foot body 3 consists of two foot sections 6 and 7 designed as metal injection-molded parts or die-cast parts.
- the rear foot section 6 is less protruding; its standing area 4 lies approximately on the rear edge of the cheek 2.
- the front foot section 7 is designed to be widely protruding. Its contact area 5 is approximately as far in front of the Front edge of the cheek 2 protrudes like the table top (not shown).
- the two foot sections 6, 7 each have mutually directed connecting strips 8, 9, which abut one another on both sides of a common connecting surface 10.
- the two connecting strips 8, 9 are screwed together by means of continuous screws 11.
- the connecting strips 8, 9 are each positively received in a lateral recess 9a or 8a of the other connecting strip 9 or 8, respectively. Therefore, the two connecting strips 8, 9 transmit the bending moment between the two foot sections 6 and 7, which occurs when the frame of the office furniture is loaded.
- Each of the two foot sections 6, 7 has an upwardly projecting plug-in pin 12 which is designed as an expansion dowel and is intended to be received in a vertical bore 13 in the cheek 2 of the office furniture.
- the two plug pins 12 intended for connection to the frame protrude above a horizontal upper contact surface 14, on which the cheek 2 or another part of the frame is seated in the assembled state.
- An upper dowel part 12a is pulled by a screw 12b into a conical bore of a longitudinally slotted lower dowel part 12c, which is thereby expanded.
- the two connecting strips 8, 9 also protrude above the horizontal upper contact surface 14. It is thereby achieved that the two connecting strips 8, 9 lie within the cheek 2 and are therefore not visible from the outside. Any combination of widely protruding leg sections 7 and less widely protruding leg sections 6 can be used to produce legs of different designs for all requirements in the context of a office furniture program.
