Definitions
- the subject of the invention is a wardrobe with shelves or hangers and with an optional door or without it.
- the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is how to conceive a wardrobe, preferably a prefabricated one, which could be assembled and placed directly at its place without the dimensions of the space limiting the possibilities of placement and which, though appearing to be buil t-in, would be constructed as a stand-alone wardrobe not fastened to walls or ceiling, thus allowing good circulation of air and preventing the formation of mould and condensation on the panels facing the walls and the ceiling and at the same time providing enough space to reach the back wall for cleaning and painting.
- a wardrobe of that type is known from SI patent 200000040 (Ale VENE), which, however, only solves the adjustment of a prefabricated wardrobe in height, not in width and does not enable air circulation behind its back panel.
- a wardrobe according the invention which is essentially made of prefabricated vertical panels, side panels and, if desired, intermediate partition panels; of horizontal bottom and top panels positioned at a distance from the floor and the ceiling of the space in order to allow better air circulation; of a back panel made in each area between two neighbouring vertical panels as single or double door panels, which can be opened to give access to the wall behind the wardrobe; and of transversal profiles at said door panels functioning as the back panel, which profiles assure the windbracing of the wardrobe.
- the wardrobe consists of side vertical elements 1, preferably panels and, if needed, intermediate vertical elements 2.
- the elements 1 and 2 are connected at the lower part by a bottom panel 3 and at the upper part by a top panel 4, which run from the front edges of the elements 1 and 2 at a distance from the back edges of the vertical elements 1 and 2, where there are placed transversally running profiles 5 behind the bottom panel 3 and the top panel 4 and between the elements 1 and 2, thus assuring the windbracing of the wardrobe.
- more (preferably at least one) similar profiles 5 may be placed between the bottom panel 3 and the top panel 4.
- door panels 6 on hinges 7, which door panels are, depending on the distance between two neighbouring vertical elements 1 and 2, executed either as single as double door panels and function as the back of the wardrobe.
- the distance between the profiles 5 and the back edge of the vertical elements 1 and 2 normally running close to the back wall of the room forms an aeration slot 9 running along the entire height of the wardrobe and connecting the space below the bottom panel 3 and the space above the top panel 4, thus assuring the flow of air behind the back panel of the wardrobe.
- a door 10 of the wardrobe is intended to run at a relatively small distance from the floor and ceiling of the room so as to form aeration slots 11, 12.
- two border doors 15 preferably fastened to the elements 1 with standard doorposts and having two additional border profiles 16 at the edge facing the wall if necessary.
- the profiles are fastened on the spot to assure a precise adjustment to the walls not being level.
- All connecting elements and doorposts are standard elements and selected according to individual needs.
- the outer appearance of the wardrobe is optional as well, which is made possible by the structure as described above.
- a door on hinges there may also be a sliding door or a door not running from the floor to the ceiling, but only a partial one or partitioned into several doors in transversal direction.
- Drawers can be visible or hidden behind the door.

Abstract
Description
- The subject of the invention is a wardrobe with shelves or hangers and with an optional door or without it.
- The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is how to conceive a wardrobe, preferably a prefabricated one, which could be assembled and placed directly at its place without the dimensions of the space limiting the possibilities of placement and which, though appearing to be buil t-in, would be constructed as a stand-alone wardrobe not fastened to walls or ceiling, thus allowing good circulation of air and preventing the formation of mould and condensation on the panels facing the walls and the ceiling and at the same time providing enough space to reach the back wall for cleaning and painting.
- Known "built-in" wardrobes are tailor-made and do not allow prefabrication, which makes them expensive.
-
- There has been a need for a more general solution allowing a better adjustment to the space and to the user's needs and offering a prefabricated product at a lower price as well as preserving a solid quality.
- The described technical problem is solved by a wardrobe according the invention which is essentially made of prefabricated vertical panels, side panels and, if desired, intermediate partition panels; of horizontal bottom and top panels positioned at a distance from the floor and the ceiling of the space in order to allow better air circulation; of a back panel made in each area between two neighbouring vertical panels as single or double door panels, which can be opened to give access to the wall behind the wardrobe; and of transversal profiles at said door panels functioning as the back panel, which profiles assure the windbracing of the wardrobe.
- In order that the present invention be more readily understood, an embodiment thereof will now be described by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawing in which:
- Fig.1
- shows the front view of the wardrobe according to the invention with a partial cross-section of the front door,
- Fig. 2
- shows a vertical cross-section of the wardrobe along the line II - II from Fig 1.
- The wardrobe consists of side
vertical elements 1, preferably panels and, if needed, intermediatevertical elements 2. Theelements bottom panel 3 and at the upper part by atop panel 4, which run from the front edges of theelements vertical elements profiles 5 behind thebottom panel 3 and thetop panel 4 and between theelements similar profiles 5 may be placed between thebottom panel 3 and thetop panel 4. On thevertical elements profiles 5 there are placeddoor panels 6 onhinges 7, which door panels are, depending on the distance between two neighbouringvertical elements - Under the
bottom 3 of the wardrobe a pull-outdrawer 8 of a known design may be placed. Above thetop panel 4 there is a relatively large space to the ceiling of the room. - The distance between the
profiles 5 and the back edge of thevertical elements bottom panel 3 and the space above thetop panel 4, thus assuring the flow of air behind the back panel of the wardrobe. - A
door 10 of the wardrobe is intended to run at a relatively small distance from the floor and ceiling of the room so as to formaeration slots 11, 12. - Behind the
door 10 on the upper part of the wardrobe there may be executed atransversal support rail 13, whereas no similar rail is needed above the floor. - Under the
vertical elements screw feet 14 or similar known furniture elements used for levelling. - To close the slots between the lateral
vertical elements 1 and the walls of the room there are foreseen twoborder doors 15 preferably fastened to theelements 1 with standard doorposts and having twoadditional border profiles 16 at the edge facing the wall if necessary. The profiles are fastened on the spot to assure a precise adjustment to the walls not being level. - All connecting elements and doorposts are standard elements and selected according to individual needs. The outer appearance of the wardrobe is optional as well, which is made possible by the structure as described above. Instead of a door on hinges there may also be a sliding door or a door not running from the floor to the ceiling, but only a partial one or partitioned into several doors in transversal direction. Drawers can be visible or hidden behind the door. Furthermore, there can be other design variants without circumventing the essence of the invention as defined in the attached patent claims.
