Abstract
A table, particularly for sectional office furniture systems, comprises a structure including a worktop (3, 3a) and at least one element connecting with the worktop (3, 3a). Anchoring means are provided for the structure and the element associated with the worktop (3, 3a), comprising a rapid-connection system of the microconnector type (5, 10) which includes a first component (5) fixed to the structure and a second component (10) fixed to the element associated with the worktop (3, 3a).
Description
- The present invention relates to a table, particularly for sectional office furniture systems.
- Recently office furniture systems have been developed which enable the various modular elements to be assembled in arrangements which are personalised to the requirements of the final purchaser. In particular, by a combination of a relatively small number of basic modules it is possible to obtain different arrangements which range from individual operating stations - adapted for the execution solely of personal processing - to more complex furnishing arrangements including, for example, a zone for connections, a zone for carrying out personal processing, a zone arranged for working with a personal computer, etc.
- In furniture systems of the type specified above there is often a need to attach to the worktop accessories such as nests of drawers and/or additional shelves which are normally located beneath the worktop, or items of various types which are usually arranged on top of the worksurface and thus render part of it unavailable for other uses, while it is also necessary to fix the legs, or support pillars, to the worktop.
- In such sectional furniture systems it is essential to ensure the maximum possible flexibility in the connection of the legs and accessories to the worktop to avoid restricting the final purchaser excessively since he should be free to choose the arrangement of the support elements for the worktop and the accessories according to his preferences and so as to utilise the space available in the most rational manner; moreover, the connection system must be simple to enable the user himself to modify the arrangements at will.
- In order to satisfy these requirements, the present invention provides a table, comprising a structure including a worktop and at least one element associated with the worktop by anchoring means, characterised in that the anchoring means comprise a rapid connection system of the microconnector type including a first component attached to the structure and a second component fixed to the element associated with the work surface.
- In the description which follows and in the appended claims the term "connection system of the microconnector type" is intended to mean a rapid press-fit connection system which employ mechanical anchoring between a plurality of mutually cooperating microconnectors provided on two facing surfaces of the components of the connection system. Examples of such microconnector devices are the so-called VELCRO (registered Trade Mark) closures or "hook and loop" closures.
- Preferably the first component of the microconnector system extends over substantially the entire under surface of the worktop. This preferred characteristic enables, inter alia, ducting for cables and electrical conductors beneath the worktop to be provided simply and quickly, and even without the need to provide ducting elements for this purpose; the electrical conductors may therefore be attached directly to the under surface of the worktop by strips of the second component of the microconnector connection system.
- The invention also enables apparatus or devices in common use in an office, such as for example the base of a lamp or the central unit of a personal computer, to be fixed beneath the worktop so as to avoid unnecessary bulk on the upper surface of the worktop.
- Another subject of the present invention is an element of a furniture structure, particularly of an office table, intended to be attached to at least one other element of the furniture structure by anchoring means, characterised in that the anchoring means comprise a microconnector connection system including first and second components adapted to engage each other reciprocally, in which the first component is attached to the said element and the second component is fixed to the said other element so that the said element can be anchored to the said other element.
- Further characteristics and advantages of the invention will become apparent during the detailed description which follows given with reference to the appended drawings, provided purely by way of non-limitative example, in which:
- Figure 1 is a perspective view of a worktop according to the present invention,
- Figure 2 is a side-elevational view sectioned along the line II-II of Figure 1,
- Figure 3 is a view similar to Figure 2, on an enlarged scale, showing a detail of Figure 1 sectioned along the line III-III,
- Figures 4, 6 and 5, 7 are two side elevational views and two perspective views respectively illustrating schematically the possible connection of further accessories to the worktop, and
- Figures 8 and 9 are sectioned side-elevational views on an enlarged scale of anchoring means used for realising the subject of the invention.
- With reference initially to Figures 1, 2 and 3, a table forming part of a sectional office furniture system is generally indicated 1. The table 1 includes a
worktop 3 to the under surface of which is attached asheet 5 constituted by a first component of a microconnector rapid connection system. Thesheet 5 preferably extends over the entire under surface of theworktop 3 and is attached thereto by any known fixing system such as, for example, a layer of glue interposed between theworktop 3 and thesheet 5 or by microwelding. - Below the
top 3 are legs 7 each of which has anupper base 8 to the top of which is fixed apiece 10 of the second component of the rapid-connection microconnector system. Thus, to connect a leg 7 to theworktop 3, it suffices to place therespective base 8 in correspondence with that region of the underside of the table to which it is to be attached and to press thebase 8 so that thepiece 10 adheres face to face with thesheet 5. - Accessories of various types, of which several examples are given in the description below, may be located beneath the
worktop 3 in an entirely similar manner. - A drawer housing 12 for holding a plurality of
drawers 13 is attached beneath theworktop 3 by anotherpiece 10 so that thehousing 12 may be press fitted to a region of thesheet 5; similarly ahousing 12a for asingle draw 13 or a shelf structure (not illustrated in the drawings) may be attached to thetop 3. - In a similar manner, a
lamp 15 with abase 16 having apiece 10 of the second component of the microconnector system on its upper face, facing thesheet 5, is fixed to theworktop 3. Thus the space which thebase 16 would occupy were it located on top of theworktop 3 remains free, thus making more working space available. Naturally thelamp 15 may be disconnected simply and quickly from a region of thesheet 5 to which it is attached for connection to another region of thesheet 5 according to the requirements of the user. - By virtue of the invention it is also possible to connect one or more supplementary worktops 3a quickly to the
worktop 3 with the use of one or more connectingelements 18 each constituted by aflat element 19 carrying anotherpiece 10 on one face. In this case theelement 19 is located so that therespective layer 10 is anchored partly to thesheet 5 fixed to the underside of theworktop 3 and partly fixed to thesheet 5 fixed to the underside of the supplementary worktop 3a. - A
partition 20 may also be attached to theworktop 3, the partition comprising aflat wall 22 adapted to be arranged perpendicular to theworktop 3 at one edge thereof and aflange 21 extending perpendicular to thewall 22 and having apiece 10 of the second component of the microconnector connection system on one of its surfaces thepiece 10 being intended to be press-fitted to a region of thesheet 5. - It is also possible to connect cabling 27 of various types to the underside of the
worktop 3 by interposing them between thesheet 5 and anelongate piece 10 of the second component or by usingducting elements 29 constituted by half-shells of rigid material havinglongitudinal edges 30 to whichpieces 10 of the second component are fixed to support one ormore cables 27 beneath theworktop 3. - A
central unit 23 of a personal computer may also be located beneath theworktop 3 by means ofsupport bands 25 provided at least at their ends withrespective pieces 10 of the second component and intended to be press-fitted to thesheet 5 so as to free that part of the upper surface of theworktop 3 which would conventionally accommodate such a unit. - Figures 4 to 7 illustrate various types of accessories with different functions and flat elongate shapes which can be attached to the
worktop 3. - In a first case (Figure 4) a
partitioning element 20a is disposed perpendicular to theworktop 3 and above it. Theelement 20a, which carries apiece 5 of the first component on its side face is attached to theworktop 3 by means of an auxiliary L-section support31a having pieces 10 of the second component on two adjacent faces of its two limbs. One of these limbs is intended to be disposed perpendicular to theworktop 3 so that therespective piece 10 is face to face with thepiece 5 fixed to theelement 20a while the other limb is located parallel to and beneath theworktop 3 so that it can be anchored to thepiece 5 thereof. - In a variant illustrated in Figure 5, the
partitioning element 20a has twopieces 5 of the first component fixed to its respectiveopposite faces 21a. In this case a pair of auxiliary L-section supports 31b is used whose walls are in the shape of quadrants and each of which carries apiece 10 of the second component. The anchoring of theelement 20a to theworktop 3 is thus effected by disposing thepiece 10 of one of the walls of eachsupport 31b face to face with thesheet 5 of theworktop 3 and thepiece 10 fixed to the other wall of eachelement 20a face to face with thepiece 5 fixed to one of thefaces 21a. Theelement 20a may in this case take up different angular positions relative to theworktop 3. - Figure 6 shows a further variant in which the
partition element 20a is located beneath theworktop 3 and perpendicular thereto and is provided with apiece 10 of the second component on its longitudinal edge and withpieces 5 of the first component attached to itsopposite faces 21a. Thepiece 10 fixed to theelement 20a is fixed directly to thesheet 5 of theworktop 3 while thepieces 5 fixed to thefaces 21a are anchored torespective pieces 10 each of which is attached to one of the walls of thesupports 31b, the other wall of thesupports 31b resting on the top of theworktop 3. - In a further variant illustrated in Figure 7, a pair of
partition elements 20b is attached, one below and one above theworktop 3, both elements having a centralelongate part 21c and respective quadrant-shape end flanges 21b perpendicular to thepart 21c. Theflanges 21b carryrespective pieces 5 of the first component on their outer faces.Support members 31c of substantially flat semi-circular shape carrying apiece 10 of the second component on one face are then located face to face with theflanges 21b so as to couple therewith. In this case theelement 20b to be located beneath theworktop 3 will also be provided with apiece 10 for anchoring to thesheet 5 of theworktop 3. - With reference to Figures 3, 8 and 9, several types of microconnector rapid connection systems, which are particularly useful for forming high-strength connections, are illustrated in greater detail. These systems are, for example, those sold commercially under the marks DUAL LOCK and SCOTCHMATE registered by 3M.
- Figure 3 illustrates such a system in which the
first component 5 and thesecond component 10 both have respective microconnectors 5a and 10a of mushroom shape. - Figures 8 and 9 illustrate respective rapid connection system in which the
sheet 5 of the first component is, in both cases, a combination ofnylon filaments 5b finely woven and arranged to form a plurality of loops while the second component is formed by apiece 10 having mushroom-shaped microconnectors 10a or hookedmicroconnectors 10b. Naturally microconnector systems of types different from those illustrated, and possibly ones still in the design and experimental phase and therefore not a present available on the market, may also be used. - Naturally, the principle of the invention remaining the same, the forms of embodiment and details of construction may be varied widely without thereby departing from the scope of the present invention; for example, the
worktop 3 could be a worktop forming part of a suspended furniture element intended to be cantilevered in known manner from a vertical wall.
