Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen bodenseitigen Schubkasten für ein Stellmöbel, der in an sich bekannter Weise mit einer frontseitig angeordneten Blende ausgestattet ist.The present invention relates to a bottom-side drawer for a control unit, which is equipped in a conventional manner with a front panel arranged aperture.

Unter dem Begriff Stellmöbel wird im Zusammenhang mit der vorliegenden Erfindung ein Schrankmöbel verstanden, welches unmittelbar auf dem Boden eines Raumes aufgestellt wird.The term adjustable furniture is understood in the context of the present invention, a cabinet furniture, which is placed directly on the floor of a room.

So gibt es beispielsweise bei Küchenmöbeln derartige Schränke, die bodenseitig aufgestellt werden und solche, die als Hängeschränke an einer Wand befestigt werden.Thus, for example, in kitchen furniture, such cabinets are placed on the bottom side and those which are attached as wall cabinets to a wall.

Insbesondere im Bereich der Küchenmöbel weisen solche Stellmöbel häufig Schubkästen auf, wobei der untere Schubkasten eines solchen Stellmöbels als bodenseitiger Schubkasten bezeichnet werden kann.In particular, in the field of kitchen furniture such adjustable furniture often drawers, the lower drawer of such a furniture can be referred to as a bottom drawer.

Ein Schubkasten, der auch als bodenseitiger Schubkasten genutzt werden kann, ist beispielsweise aus der US 5 352 034 bekannt. Der bekannte Schubkasten ist dabei mit einer Frontblende ausgestattet, die sowohl horizontal wie auch vertikal justierbar ist.A drawer, which can also be used as a bottom-side drawer, is known for example from US 5,352,034. The well-known drawer is equipped with a front panel, which is adjustable both horizontally and vertically.

Insbesondere im bodenseitigen Bereich sind bei Stellmöbeln und den bodenseitigen Schubkästen derartiger Stellmöbel Besonderheiten zu beachten, die für weiter oben angeordnete Schubkästen keine Bedeutung haben. So sind derartige Stellmöbel häufig mit einem Sockelbereich ausgestattet, der gegenüber der Vorderseite des Stellmöbels an sich zurückspringt und in dem häufig Stütz- oder Stellfiiße zur Höhenjustierung eines derartigen Stellmöbels angeordnet sind, so dass durch Schubkästen häufig nur der Bereich oberhalb des Sockels genutzt werden kann oder im eigentlichen Sockelbereich andere Abmessungen für Schubkästen beachtet werden müssen.Especially in the bottom area special features are to be noted in the case of furniture and the bottom-side drawers such Stellmöbel that have no significance for further upwardly arranged drawers. Thus, such chairs are often equipped with a base area, opposite the front of the furniture springs back and are often arranged in the support or Stellfiiße for height adjustment of such a furniture, so that often only the area above the base can be used by drawers or other dimensions must be considered for drawers in the actual base area.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen bodenseitigen Schubkasten für ein Stellmöbel zu schaffen, der den besonderen Anforderungen, die an einen Schubkasten im bodenseitigen Bereich eines Stellmöbels gestellt werden, in äußerst praxisbezogener Weise gerecht wird.The present invention has for its object to provide a bottom-side drawer for a folding furniture, which is the most specific requirements that are placed on a drawer in the bottom area of a furniture, in a very practical way fair.

Eine Lösung dieser Aufgabe besteht darin, dass die Blende höhenbeweglich gelagert und derart geführt ist, dass ein geringfügiges Anheben der Frontblende zwangsweise erfolgt, wenn der Schubkasten geöffnet wird.A solution to this problem is that the diaphragm is mounted vertically movable and guided so that a slight lifting of the front panel is forcibly when the drawer is opened.

Bei einem bodenseitigen Schubkasten der hier in Rede stehenden Art ist es erwünscht, dass die frontseitige Blende bei eingeschobenem Schubkasten möglichst dicht mit dem Fußboden abschließt. Bei Bodenunebenheiten oder dergleichen kann die Blende dann unter unglücklichen Umständen auf dem Boden schleifen oder sogar ein vollständiges Öffnen des Schubkastens blockieren.In a bottom-side drawer of the type in question here, it is desirable that the front panel closes as close as possible to the floor when the drawer is inserted. With bumps or the like, the panel may then drag on the floor under unfortunate circumstances or even block complete opening of the drawer.

Dies wird durch die erfindungsgemäße Gestaltung eines Schubkastens verhindert, da die höhenbewegliche Blende beim Öffnen des Schubkastens zumindest so weit angehoben werden kann, dass eine Bodenberührung der Blende auch bei unebenen Böden sicher verhindert ist.This is prevented by the inventive design of a drawer, since the height-adjustable aperture when opening the drawer can be raised at least so far that a bottom contact of the panel is reliably prevented even on uneven floors.

Eine weitere Lösung der gestellten Aufgabe besteht darin, dass die Frontblende über Führungsmittel höhenbeweglich am Schubkasten angeschlossen ist und dass an der Frontblende rückseitig Rollenhalter mit bodenseitig abgestützten Laufrollen befestigt sind.Another solution to the problem is that the front panel is connected via guide means vertically movable on the drawer and that are attached to the front panel on the rear roller holder with bottom supported rollers.

Der Vorteil einer derartigen Lösung besteht darin, dass bei Bodenunebenheiten, denen die Laufrollen folgen, die untere Frontblende entgegen der Wirkung der Druckfedern diesen Bodenunebenheiten folgen kann, ohne dass dabei die Gefahr besteht, dass es zu einer Verklemmung oder zu einem Rutschen oder Schaben der unteren Kante der Frontblende auf dem Fußboden kommt.The advantage of such a solution is that in uneven floors, which follow the rollers, the lower front panel can follow this unevenness against the action of the springs, without causing the risk that there is a jamming or slipping or scraping of the lower Edge of the front panel comes on the floor.

Weitere Merkmale der Erfindung sind Gegenstand von Unteransprüchen.Further features of the invention are the subject of dependent claims.

In den Figuren 1-7 ist ein Ausführungsbeispiel eines erfindungsgemäßen Schubkastens 1 gezeigt, der im bodenseitigen Bereich eines Stellmöbels 2 (andeutungsweise gezeigt in den Figuren 3, 6 und 7) längs verschiebbar geführt ist.In the figures 1-7 an embodiment of a drawer 1 according to the invention is shown, which is guided longitudinally displaceably in the bottom region of a Stellmöbels 2 (suggestively shown in Figures 3, 6 and 7).

Der Schubkasten 1 ist als sogenannter Sockelschubkasten ausgebildet, d. h., dass ein unterer, frontseitiger Bereich des Schubkastens 1 entsprechend der Sockelkontur 3 eines Stellmöbels in Richtung der Rückseite des Stellmöbels zurückspringend ausgebildet ist.The drawer 1 is designed as a so-called pedestal drawer, d. h., That a lower, front-side area of the drawer 1 is formed according to the base contour 3 of a furniture in the direction of the back of the furniture back.

Der besagte Schubkasten 1 ist dementsprechend mit zwei Frontblenden 4 und 5 ausgestattet, wobei die mit dem Bezugszeichen 4 bezeichnete untere Frontblende im zurückspringenden Bereich des Schubkastens 1 angeordnet ist und die mit dem Bezugszeichen 5 bezeichnete Frontblende im oberen, die Vorderfront bildenden Bereich des Stellmöbels liegt.The said drawer 1 is accordingly equipped with two front panels 4 and 5, wherein the lower front panel designated by the reference numeral 4 is arranged in the recessed portion of the drawer 1 and the front panel designated by the reference numeral 5 is located in the upper, the front-forming portion of the furniture.

Die untere Frontblende 4 soll bei völlig eingeschobenem Schubkasten 1 möglichst dicht am Fußboden 6 liegen, unter Umständen sogar auf dem Fußboden 6 aufliegen, um den untersten Sockelbereich des Stellmöbels dicht abzuschließen.The lower front panel 4 is to be as close as possible to the floor 6 with fully inserted drawer 1, may even rest on the floor 6 to close the bottom of the pedestal area of the furniture.

Da nicht gewährleistet werden kann, dass der Fußboden 6 immer exakt horizontal verläuft, besteht die Gefahr, dass beim Öffnen des Schubkastens 1 eine sich unmittelbar oberhalb des Fußbodens 6 befindliche Frontblende 4 auf Fußbodenunebenheiten festsetzen oder über diese hinwegschleifen könnte.Since it can not be guaranteed that the floor 6 always runs exactly horizontally, there is a risk that, when the drawer 1 is opened, a front panel 4 located immediately above the floor 6 could become stuck to floor irregularities or rub over them.

Um diese Gefahr zu vermeiden, ist die untere Frontblende 4 höhenbeweglich gelagert und zweckmäßigerweise derart geführt, dass ein geringfügiges Anheben der Frontblende 4 zwangsweise erfolgt, wenn der Schubkasten 1 geöffnet wird.In order to avoid this danger, the lower front panel 4 is mounted vertically movable and suitably guided in such a way that a slight lifting of the front panel 4 is forcibly carried out when the drawer 1 is opened.

Zu diesem Zweck ist die untere Frontblende 4 über vertikal verlaufende Führungsmittel 10 mit dem Schubkasten 1 gekoppelt und durch mindestens eine Feder 11 belastet, welche die Frontblende 4 ständig nach oben zieht.For this purpose, the lower front panel 4 is coupled via vertically extending guide means 10 to the drawer 1 and loaded by at least one spring 11, which constantly pulls the front panel 4 upwards.

Weiterhin ist an der Frontblende 4 zumindest an einer Längsseite des Schubkastens 1 ein Führungsteil 7 befestigt, welches im Bereich seiner Oberkante 8 gegenüber der Horizontalen geneigt verläuft derart, dass diese Oberkante 8 von der Frontblende 4 ausgehend in Richtung der Rückseite des Schubkastens 1 hin abfällt. Im Verschiebebereich des Schubkastens 1 und insbesondere des Führungsteiles 7 ist an der Seitenwand eines Schubkastens ein Steuerelement 9 befestigt, welches über die O-berkante 8 des Führungsteiles 7 hinweggleitet, wenn der Schubkasten 1 aus seiner völlig eingefahrenen Position heraus ausgezogen oder wieder in diese Einschubposition zurückgefahren wird.Furthermore, a guide member 7 is attached to the front panel 4 at least on one longitudinal side of the drawer 1, which extends inclined in the region of its upper edge 8 relative to the horizontal such that this upper edge 8, starting from the front panel 4, towards the rear of the drawer 1 drops out. In the sliding area of the drawer 1 and in particular of the guide member 7, a control 9 is fixed to the side wall of a drawer, which over the O-edge 8 of the guide member 7 slides away when the drawer 1 is pulled out of its fully retracted position or moved back to this insertion position.

Ist der Schubkasten 1 in seine völlig eingefahrene Position verschoben, wird durch das schrankseitig festgelegte Steuerelement 9, welches auf der Oberkante 8 des Führungsteiles 7 aufliegt, das Führungsteil 7 und damit auch die Frontblende 4 entgegen der Wirkung der Feder 11 nach unten gedrückt bis in eine Position, innerhalb derer die Frontblende 4 mit ihrer Unterkante praktisch auf dem Fußboden 6 aufliegt. Wird der Schubkasten 1 aus dem Stellmöbel 2 herausgezogen, wird durch die nach hinten abfallende Oberkante 8 ein sofortiges Anheben der Frontblende 4 durch die Wirkung der Feder 11 ermöglicht, so dass der Kontakt der Unterkante der Frontblende 4 mit dem Fußboden aufgehoben wird. Befindet sich das Führungsteil 7 völlig außerhalb des Kontaktes mit dem Steuerelement 9, ist die höchstmögliche Verstellung der Frontblende 4 erreicht.If the drawer 1 is moved to its fully retracted position, the guide member 7 and thus the front panel 4 is pressed against the action of the spring 11 down through the cabinet side fixed control 9, which rests on the upper edge 8 of the guide member 7 Position within which the front panel 4 practically rests with its lower edge on the floor 6. If the drawer 1 is pulled out of the control unit 2, an immediate lifting of the front panel 4 by the action of the spring 11 is made possible by the sloping top edge 8, so that the contact of the lower edge of the front panel 4 is lifted with the floor. The guide member 7 is completely out of contact with the control element 9, the highest possible adjustment of the front panel 4 is reached.

Wird aus der geöffneten Stellung heraus der Schubkasten 1 wieder in den Möbelkorpus des Stellmöbels 2 hineingeschoben, kommt es kurz vor dem endgültigen Schließzustand wieder zum Kontakt zwischen dem Steuerelement 9 und der Oberkante 8 des Führungsteiles 7. Im fortschreitenden Einschieben des Schubkastens 1 findet dann wieder ein Verschieben der Frontblende 4 in Richtung des Fußbodens statt, bis die endgültige Schließposition erreicht ist, in der, wie schon erwähnt, die Unterkante der Frontblende 4 praktisch auf dem Fußboden aufliegt.If from the open position, the drawer 1 is pushed back into the furniture body of the furniture 2, it comes just before the final closed state again to contact between the control element 9 and the top 8 of the guide member 7. In the progressive insertion of the drawer 1 then takes a again Moving the front panel 4 in the direction of the floor instead, until the final closing position is reached, in which, as already mentioned, the lower edge of the front panel 4 practically rests on the floor.

Vorteilhafterweise und zur besseren Verteilung der auf die Frontblende 4 einwirkenden Kräfte sind an beiden Außenseiten des Schubkastens 1 entsprechende Führungsteile 7, Federn 11 und - schrankseitig - Steuerelemente 9 vorgesehen. Eine Verkantung der Frontblende 4 wird somit wirksam verhindert.Advantageously, and for better distribution of the forces acting on the front panel 4 corresponding guide parts 7, springs 11 and - cabinet side - controls 9 are provided on both outer sides of the drawer. A tilting of the front panel 4 is thus effectively prevented.

In Figur 3 ist eine der angesprochenen Federn 11 zur Verdeutlichung symbolisch angedeutet, vorteilhaft ist es, die Federn 11 gekapselt innerhalb der Führungsmittel 10 zur höhenverstellbaren Lagerung der Frontblende 4 anzuordnen.In Figure 3, one of the mentioned springs 11 symbolically indicated for clarity, it is advantageous to arrange the springs 11 encapsulated within the guide means 10 for height-adjustable mounting of the front panel 4.

Bei dem beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispiel, bei dem der Schubkasten 1 als Sockelschubkasten ausgebildet ist, sind in den gegeneinander abgesetzten Bereichen, wie schon erwähnt, zwei verschiedene Frontblenden 4 und 5 vorgesehen. Dabei ist die untere Frontblende 4 in der beschriebenen Weise höhenverstellbar angeordnet.In the described embodiment, in which the drawer 1 is designed as a base drawer, are in the mutually remote areas, As already mentioned, two different front panels 4 and 5 are provided. In this case, the lower front panel 4 is arranged vertically adjustable in the manner described.

Bei einem Schubkasten 1, bei dem die Frontseite im Unterschied zu einem Sockelschubkasten nicht abgesetzt ist, wird entsprechend nur eine durchgehende Frontblende verwendet. Diese Frontblende ist dann insgesamt höhenverstellbar gelagert, entsprechend der beschriebenen Ausführungsform betreffend die untere Frontblende 4.In a drawer 1, in which the front is not discontinued, unlike a pedestal drawer, only one continuous front panel is used accordingly. This front panel is then mounted in total height adjustable, according to the described embodiment concerning the lower front panel. 4

Die Führungsmittel 10 verschieben die Frontblende 4 geradlinig nach oben. Natürlich ist es auch möglich, durch andere Führungsmittel, z.B. Stift-Schlitz-Führungen die Frontblende 4 schräg nach oben zu bewegen oder durch kurvenförmig ausgebildete Stift-Schlitz-Führungen in einer kombinierten Bewegung nach oben und vorn. Auch eine kombinierte Bewegung im Sinne eines abhebenden Kippens nach vorn und oben ist bei entsprechender Gestaltung der Führung denkbar.The guide means 10 move the front panel 4 straight up. Of course it is also possible to use other guiding means, e.g. Pin-slot guides to move the front panel 4 obliquely upward or by curved pin-slot guides in a combined movement up and forward. Also, a combined movement in the sense of a contrasting tilting forward and upward is conceivable with appropriate design of the guide.

Ferner könnte die Frontblende 4 auch durch Hebel angelenkt sein, die es zulassen, dass die Frontblende 4 im Sinne einer Drehbewegung einen Abstand zum Fußboden schafft, indem sie sich auf einer Kreisbahn nach vorn und oben bewegt.Further, the front panel 4 could also be hinged by levers that allow the front panel 4 in the sense of a rotational movement creates a distance to the floor by moving forward and upward on a circular path.

Im Ausführungsbeispiel gemäß Figur 8 ist wieder ein Schubkasten 1 gezeigt, der ebenfalls mit einer höhenverstellbaren, unteren Frontblende 4 ausgestattet ist. Auch hier ist die Frontblende 4 über Führungsmittel 10 höhenverstellbar gegenüber dem Unterteil 13 gelagert. Weiterhin sind an der Rückseite der Frontblende 4 Rollenhalter 22 mit bodenseitig abgestützten Laufrollen 23 befestigt. Über Druckfedern 24 ist die Frontblende 4 ständig in Richtung des Fußbodens 6 belastet.In the embodiment according to FIG 8 is again shown a drawer 1, which is also equipped with a height-adjustable, lower front panel 4. Again, the front panel 4 is height adjustable via guide means 10 mounted relative to the lower part 13. Furthermore, 4 roller holder 22 are attached to the bottom side supported rollers 23 on the back of the front panel. About compression springs 24, the front panel 4 is constantly loaded in the direction of the floor 6.

Bei Bodenunebenheiten, denen die Laufrollen 23 folgen, kann die untere Frontblende 4 entgegen der Wirkung der Druckfedern 24 diesen Bodenunebenheiten folgen, ohne dass die Gefahr besteht, dass es zu einer Verklemmung oder zu einem Rutschen oder Schaben der unteren Kante der Frontblende 4 auf dem Fußboden 6 kommt.In uneven floors followed by the rollers 23, the lower front panel 4, contrary to the action of the compression springs 24 follow these bumps without the risk that there is a jamming or slipping or scraping of the lower edge of the front panel 4 on the floor 6 is coming.

Gegebenenfalls kann beim Ausführungsbeispiel gemäß Figur 8 auf die Anordnung der Druckfedern 24 verzichtet werden, da alleine schon aufgrund des Eigengewichtes die untere Frontblende 4 ständig in Richtung des Fußbodens 6 belastet ist.Optionally, can be dispensed with in the embodiment of Figure 8 on the arrangement of the compression springs 24, since alone, because of its own weight, the lower front panel 4 is constantly loaded in the direction of the floor 6.

Gleichwohl wird eine komfortablere Ausführungsform darin gesehen, dass die erwähnten Druckfedern 24 vorhanden sind.However, a more comfortable embodiment is seen in that the mentioned compression springs 24 are present.
