Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an anti-tilt device for cabinet-type furniture comprising elements such as drawers that can be deployed beyond its front.
  • said deployment leads to change the position of the center of gravity of the cabinet, and runs the risk of a tilting of the cabinet when the position of said center of gravity creates a moment relative to the geometric center of the cabinet. cabinet that is not sufficiently compensated by the structure of the latter.
  • the present invention proposes to overcome these disadvantages, by setting up a counterweight which is not related to the structure of the cabinet and provides greater efficiency compared to existing solutions.
  • the counterweight is placed near the base of the furniture.
  • a form condition is then posed: a first side of the counterweight has a profile for insertion into the slot of the second side wall a second side of said counterweight so that the counterweight can be pivoted to allow insertion of the first side into the slot of the first side wall.
  • the anti-tilt device that is proposed allows a positioning of the point of application of the load located opposite the drawer deployment area, thus ensuring maximum efficiency. It is therefore possible to use counterweights whose weight is less given the creation of an improved resistant torque compared to the devices of the prior art.
  • the device of the invention is also very easily adjustable, since a stack of counterweight plates is easily achievable. These plates simply slide in the slots between the inner walls and the bottom, and the particular shape of their periphery allows easy assembly / disassembly, that is to say without the need to perform pivoting large amplitude.
  • the first lateral side comprises in its middle a rounded lug followed towards its lower and upper ends of a portion of song regularly decreasing the length of the plate.
  • the existence of the lug makes it possible to guarantee the retention of the plate in the corresponding slot and in contact with the bottom.
  • the edge portions decreasing the length of the plate are intended to limit the amount of rotation required for mounting / dismounting the plate.
  • these portions are rectilinear, and end with a rounded corner.
  • the second lateral side of the plate obeys the same logic of retention in a slot, that is to say that it comprises at its upper and lower ends, two rounded lugs separated by a straight portion.
  • the defining feature of this profile is the rounded corners, which allow pivoting during the assembly / disassembly operation. Assuming that the retaining lug of the first lateral side is central, the plate has a periphery having a favorable median horizontal axis symmetry in terms of production since the other cuts can then be made indifferently on one side or the other.
  • the gripping means may consist, in a possible configuration, in at least one orifice located in the vicinity of the end upper of the first lateral side of the plate, said orifice being sized to allow at least the passage of the fingers of an operator.
  • gripping port is of course opposite the pivot axis, so as to make the operation more comfortable.
  • the plates when mounted in the cabinets to make a counterweight, lie horizontally on their lower edge. This results, at least during part of the displacement which is conferred upon them during the assembly, a vertical sliding in the lateral slots. This sliding can be facilitated by the existence of two vertical lights opening into the lower edge in a flared centering portion, said slots being provided to cooperate with rollers of a guide system of the cabinet frame.
  • the plate is made of steel, and it has a thickness of between 4 and 10 mm.
  • this horizontalization is accompanied by an insertion of the rollers of the guide system in the lights made in the lower edge of the plate.
  • the plate (1) for example metallic, has on its lateral side (2) a rounded central stud (3) surrounded by two rectilinear edge portions (3) and (4) ending in rounded corners (5, 5). ').
  • the second lateral side has two rounded nipples (6, 7) placed at the corners, surrounding a rectilinear portion (8).
  • Two parallel cuts (9, 10) open at the lower edge (11) via flared mouths (12, 13).
  • an oblong cutout (14) serves as a gripping means for the plate (1).
  • FIG. 2 With reference to the figure 2 two plates (1, 1 ') are arranged against the bottom (15) of the cabinet (A) shown.
  • This cabinet (A) has a parallelepiped-shaped frame which are visible on the lateral sides (16, 17) and the base (18).
  • Inner side walls (19, 20) are provided on the lateral sides (16, 17) of the outer frame. Slots have been formed between these inner walls (19, 20) and the bottom (15), and where appropriate between the frame (18) of the base and the bottom (15), said base consisting of a plate (not shown) inserted into the visible frame (18).
  • each plate (1, 1 ') The introduction or the dismounting of each plate (1, 1 ') is done in the following way: the operator places it against the bottom (15) of the cupboard (A), at an angle so that the first side, the one with the pin (2), is raised and the lug (6) of the second side edge is inserted into the slot it adjoins.
  • the angle of inclination of the plate (1) can be kept relatively low.
  • the rounded corner (5 ') can be inserted into the slot facing it, that is to say the one which is located between the bottom (15). ) and the inner wall (20).
  • the remainder of the first lateral side, and in particular the rounded lug (2) in turn penetrates into said slot.
  • This movement is controlled by the operator using the grip hole (14).
  • the rounded lug (7) in turn penetrates into the slot located between the inner wall (19) and the bottom (15), and when it comes into abutment, the plate (1) is more or less horizontal.
  • the first lateral side, comprising the lug (2) could thus for example include this lug in the upper part, at the corner (5), with a edge profile resulting in a gradual reduction of the length of the plate to the corner (5 ').
