Definitions

  • the present invention concerns a concealed device for fitting a wall unit.
  • the fitting device known from EP-A-0 555 924 comprises a plate designed to be fixed to the unit and a coupling element consisting of a head combined with a screw, which is connected to the plate and can engage in a support of the wall unit, for example a bar fixed to the wall.
  • This fitting device also has a first screw that acts between the plate and the coupling element to adjust the latter to a vertical position with respect to the plate and a second screw, the end of which is fitted with the coupling element, as said, for adjusting the distance between the coupling element and the plate.
  • the plate is provided with a number of fixing pins which extend along one side of it and along a portion located below the coupling element.
  • the plate is also provided with a number of holes for fixing screws, made all along the side opposite the plate with respect to the side that houses the fixing pins.
  • the devices described have an asymmetrical shape and as such are not particularly suitable for automatic handling.
  • the particular shape of the plate of the device is not ideal as regards capacity to uniformly withstand the wall unit load.
  • the plate of the device is also excessively and unnecessarily bulky.
  • the aim of the present invention is, therefore, to produce a concealed device for fitting a wall unit that solves the above problems and permits the automatic fitting of said devices.
  • a further aim of the present invention is to produce a fitting device with a particularly compact, rational and therefore economic shape.
  • the concealed device for fitting a wall unit is indicated overall by reference number 10.
  • the fitting device 10 comprises a plate 11, which is designed to be fixed to a wall unit, and a coupling element 12, connected to the plate 11 via a slide mechanism.
  • the coupling element 12 is designed to engage in a support of the wall unit fixed to the wall (not shown for the sake of simplicity), for example a bar.
  • the fitting device 10 comprises, furthermore, a first screw 13, which acts between the plate 11 and the coupling element 12, to adjust the latter to a vertical position with respect to the plate 11.
  • first screw 13 and the second screw 14 are both fitted on a slide 18, which can run between guides 19.
  • the slide 18 is moved by reaction of the screw 13 against the stop 20.
  • the plate 11 is provided with a number of fixing pins 15, which are located on one side 16 of the device 10, symmetrically with respect to a centre line of the fitting device 10.
  • the fixing pins 15 are located all along one side 16 of the plate 11, and are obtained from the latter, as can be clearly seen in figures 11-13, by means of punching, drawing and forming.
  • the side pins 15, or end pins are interconnected by a drawn stiffening rib 15a.
  • the plate 11 comprises, in addition to the side that houses the fixing pins 15 and the holes 17 for the fixing screws, a further three sides forming a basically flat edge 21.
  • the particular shape of the fitting device 10, and in particular of its flat edge 21, permits automatic conveying of the same to the assembly area, as shown in figures 7-10.
  • the devices 10 are conveyed by a feeder 22, shown schematically in figures 7-8 and in figure 10; this feeder is provided with apertures 23 for the flat edges 21 of the plate 11.
  • each device 10 is conveyed, for example by means of a robot and/or a plunger (not shown for the sake of simplicity), so that its fixing pins 15 fit into corresponding holes 25 on the back 24 of a wall unit.
