Definitions

  • the present invention relates to dismountable cabinets consisting of a frame, made up of a series of joint-assembled members, covered by a fabric covering, and in particular to a dismountable cabinet provided with doors having a structure similar to that of the cabinet body.
  • DE-A-1.529.668 disclosing a cabinet wherein a frame is provided inside these openable strips so as to obtain rigid doors hinged to the frame of the cabinet body.
  • these doors are still integral with the covering of the body and closed thereon by a zip.
  • FR-E-95.225 Another kind of dismountable cabinet is disclosed in FR-E-95.225 wherein separate doors are hinged to the front panel of the body through a soldering or gluing line forming the pivoting axis of the door. Flexible plastic strips are provided as a reinforcement to alleviate the load on the soldering/gluing line.
  • this arrangement produces a permanent connection between the doors and the body of the cabinet, thus jeopardizing the complete dismountability of the cabinet.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a dismountable cabinet suitable to overcome the above-mentioned drawbacks by including doors having a structure similar to that of the cabinet body and removably hinged thereto.
  • the first clear advantage of the present cabinet is to combine the advantages of lightness and practicality of the dismountable cabinets with the convenience of having rigid opening doors like in conventional hard cabinets.
  • each door is separately removable from the body whereby a great flexibility of use is achieved and partial dismounting is possible for ease of transport.
  • a cabinet according to the present invention includes a body 1 consisting, as mentioned above, of a dismountable frame 2 onto which a covering made of fabric or the like is fitted.
  • a dismountable frame 2 onto which a covering made of fabric or the like is fitted.
  • This type of structure is well known and does not require further description.
  • An example of such a structure is disclosed in the European patent application EP-A-0.565.497 in the name of the same applicant, precisely relating to a cabin having a shape similar to that shown in fig.1 and a front zip opening which is rolled upwards.
  • the present cabinet includes a pair of doors 3 each consisting of a dismountable frame, generally made of a plastic material, onto which a fabric covering is fitted, like in the case of body 1.
  • some of the members making up the frame of door 3 are preferably the same used for the frame 2 of body 1.
  • Each door 3 is shaped so as to follow the spire profile of body 1, and it is hinged thereto by means of a zip 4 extending along the outer vertical side.
  • Said zip 4 is made up of two separable parts, a first part being secured on the covering of body 1 and a second part on the covering of door 3. This arrangement allows the detachment of door 3 from body 1 and thus maintains the complete dismountability of the cabinet. If body 1 is provided with bottom wheels 5, as shown in fig.1, doors 3 are obviously provided with them too.
  • a second embodiment of the present invention is shown in fig.2, wherein body 1', and consequently each door 3', has a flat rather than spire top. Furthermore, the connection between each door 3' and body 1' is carried out by means of a plurality of strips 6 made of leather or the like, provided with press-studs 7 engaging the corresponding bases secured on the fabric covering of door 3' and body 1', respectively. It is clear that a similar type of connection may also be carried out by means of velcro strips, laces, etc.
