Definitions

  • the present patent relates to furnishing elements and in particular concerns doors for wardrobes or furniture in general.
  • wardrobes like other furnishing elements, are frontally delimited by doors, shutters, sliding or tilting panels.
  • wardrobe compartments are closed by one single door, while other compartments are closed by two doors side by side, symmetrical or asymmetrical.
  • the closed position of the doors is sufficiently ensured by the hinges which connect the doors to the structure of the wardrobe.
  • doors are opened by means of handles or push-pull mechanisms, or recesses on the adjacent edges of the two doors in which the user can insert his/her fingers and pull the door to open it.
  • the handles are elements of various shapes and sizes applied to the doors: the user grips the handle and pulls it towards him/her, thus opening the wardrobe door.
  • the handles are fixed to the doors by means of glue, screws etc. This involves drilling of at least one hole on the surface of the door. Said operation, in turn, requires accurate measurement of each point in which to make the hole, time to drill each of said holes and time to apply each handle.
  • Handles protruding beyond the surface of the door are known and are the most commonly used, and handles obtained inside the door itself or applied in recesses or seats purposely provided on the surface of the door are also known.
  • the handles in addition to having an appreciable cost which contributes to increasing the total cost of the door and the wardrobe itself, constitute a constraint, in terms of appearance, on the part of the wardrobe exposed to view and on the whole wardrobe on which the doors are applied.
  • Push-pull or push-push which comprise a hook, arrow or peg element with widened head, fixed and protruding on the inner surface of the door to be kept closed and a push-type hooking mechanism to be fixed, for example, to the body of the furniture unit or object closed by said door.
  • Said push-pull mechanisms are positioned completely inside the compartment, therefore doors can be obtained without protrusions or interruptions of the surface.
  • Recesses provided on the edge of the door avoid the application of handles or push-pull mechanisms but require special work to be carried out on the edge to produce said recesses and in any case modify the surface continuity of the wardrobe doors as it is necessary to provide a slot between the doors for insertion of the user's fingers.
  • the object of the new door is to permit opening thereof without handles or locking mechanisms applied to the doors or to the structure of the furniture unit.
  • a further object of the new door is to eliminate protrusions, recesses or cavities from the exposed surface.
  • a further object of the new door is to eliminate the need for gripping elements or handles, push-pull mechanisms or other comparable elements for the opening thereof.
  • a further object of the new door is to eliminate the need for extra work for application or adjustment of the opening means.
  • Two of said adjacent panels are connected to each other, on the vertical side, generally the longest, by a laminar strip element, subsequently called, for the sake of convenience, flexible connection blade, inserted partially inside one panel and partially inside the other adjacent panel thus keeping said panels connected at a minimum distance from each other.
  • the door it is possible for the door to consist of three or more panels with connection to the other panels of the door being obtained by any means or device not visible from the outer side of the door.
  • Said flexible connection blade preferably extends throughout almost the whole height of the two panels.
  • Said flexible connection blade is made of flexible material, typically spring steel.
  • the preferred version provides for a wardrobe or furniture unit in general with two doors, at least one of which comprises two panels connected to each other by a flexible element, preferably a spring steel blade.
  • a door having preferably two panels joined by said flexible element is called flexible door, and a door with one or more panels not joined by any flexible element is called rigid door.
  • the pressure exerted causes partial flexion towards the inside of the edge of the flexible door opposite the hinged edge, so that the space immediately behind the edge of the rigid door can be accessed in order to pull said door in the opening direction.
  • Flexion of the edge of the flexible door is in the order of a few millimetres, but in any case sufficient for the passage at least of the fingers of one hand to hook or grip the edge of the adjacent rigid door and open it.
  • Said flexion is reversible due both to the constitution of the door panel and to the flexible characteristics of the flexible connection blade.
  • the same can be chamfered.
  • the flexible door and/or the adjacent door prefferably be of the sliding type.
  • FIG 1 a horizontal section of two doors (A, B) closing the compartment of a wardrobe or furniture unit in general is schematised, while figure 2 illustrates the significant details in horizontal section.
  • the figures clearly show the two panels (A1, A2, B1, B2) that make up each door (A, B) fixed to the side walls (L) of the wardrobe by means of the known hinges (C).
  • At least the panels (A1, A2) of one door (A) are connected to each other by a flexible connection blade (E), inserted partially inside one panel (A1) and partially inside the other adjacent panel (A2) thus keeping said panels (A1, A2) connected at a minimum distance from each other.
  • the panels (B1, B2) of the other door (B) can be joined identically by a flexible blade or a non-flexible blade (N), made of aluminium for example.
  • Figure 2 clearly shows the movement of the central area of the edge (Alb) of the panel (A1) of the door (A) with flexible blade (E), and any recess, seat (B1i) or similar in the rear part of the edge (B1b) of the door to be opened (B) facing towards the door (A) with flexible blade (E) thus facilitating insertion of the user's hand and gripping of the edge (B1b) of the door (B) to be opened.
  • the new flexible door offers considerable advantages.
  • the outer surface is smooth and without protuberances or recesses.
  • any outer surface finish can be applied or obtained, in any material without said finish being modified or damaged by the application of a handle.
  • glass or mirror sheets of any type with any patterning, applied in the production or delivery phase can be used as outer surface finish without having to make holes in or modify said glass or mirror sheets.
  • the new door permits the production of complete doors regardless of the side, right or left, or position, top or bottom, since each door can be mounted in any position and direction.
  • the new door does not require any extra work or adaptations or fitting of accessory parts for opening, such as handles for example.
  • the new door does not require modifications of the inner surfaces of the compartment for the application of opening and/or closing mechanisms, such as push-pull mechanisms, for example.
