  • the hooking means 31 comprise a plate 32 equipped with a shaped profile 33 complementary to the rounded C-shaped portion and a mobile tooth 34 hinged in a window 35 of the plate 32 and loaded by a spring for engagement in the upper cavity 41B of the hooking seat 41.
  • the plate 32 of the hooking means 31 is for example screwed to the relative peripheral accessory 30.
  • the plate 32 is connected for example to a support leg thereof.
  • the shaped profile 33 of the plate 32 acts as a pivot on the rounded C-shaped portion 41A of the seat 41 of the track 40 and allows the peripheral accessory 30 to be rotated by a few degrees to make it easier to remove.
  • many tracks 40 are fixedly connected together to form a frame 140 with a closed perimeter, in which every track 40 is arranged with the hooking seat 41 turned towards the outside of the frame perimeter 140.
  • every track 40 facing the inside of the frame perimeter 140, has at least one upper groove 42A, extending over the whole side, for engaging with opposing connecting means integral with a bottom surface of the at least one seater 20.
  • connection means between seater 20 and frame 140 comprise at least one fixed projection 26 with a shape complementary to the at least one upper groove 42A of the tracks 40 and a friction element 27 with respect to the side of the tracks 40 having the at least one upper groove 42A, opposite one another.
  • the opposing connecting means are fixed to the bottom surface of the seaters 20 so as to be positioned respectively at the sides provided with the at least one upper groove 42A of two tracks 40 arranged facing one another.
  • the fixed projection 26 comprises a cylindrical element 26A, for abutting against the side of the track, from which a truncated-conical element 26B made from teflon extends and is able to be positioned in the upper groove anywhere on the track 40.
  • the friction element 27 comprises an elastic metal sheet shaped according to first part 27A perpendicular to the bottom surface of the seater, for abutting against the side of the track 40, and according to a triangular tooth 27B protruding towards the outside, to snap fit, through pressure, into a bottom complementary portion 42B of the track 40.
  • the fixed projection 26 comprises, analogously to the first embodiment, a cylindrical element 26A, for abutting against the side of the track, from which a truncated-conical element 26B made from teflon extends, which can be positioned in the upper groove anywhere on the track 40.
  • the friction element 27 comprises a body protruding perpendicularly with respect to the bottom surface of the seater 20, for example cylindrical in shape and preferably made from elastic rubber material, for abutting with interference against the side of the track 40.
  • the two fixed projections 26 give stability to the connection also in conditions in which the seater 20 is greatly cantilever with respect to the frame 140.
  • the tracks 40 are stably connected together to form the frame with a closed perimeter 140 through angular elements 43 each fixedly or removably connected to two tracks 40 incident to one another.
  • the upper groove 42A has a T-shaped section suitable for defining a cavity 42C to house a part of the connection components 44, like for example a nut.
  • the modular sofa also comprises ground support plates 50, made in the form of square or rectangular slabs, which are removably connected to the tracks 40.
  • the track 40 for this purpose on a lower side has a housing 45 provided with an external wall 45A oriented perpendicularly to the ground and with an internal wall 45B tilted with respect to the latter so as to form a gap to insert a blocking wedge 46.
  • the track is also provided on the lower side with a cavity with a T-shaped section 47 to house a nut 48 cooperating with a clamping screw 49, which engages the blocking wedge 46 with the track.
  • the ground support plates 50 can be positioned inside the housing 45 anywhere on the tracks 40.
  • the insertion of the blocking wedge 46 between the ground support plates 50 and the tilted wall 45B of the housing 45 of the track 40 blocks the slabs 50 in a stable position.
  • Figures 10 and 11 show a further embodiment of the fastening system of the peripheral accessories 30 to the tracks 40.
  • the hooking seat 41 of the track 40 shown schematically, comprises a double step 41C, in which every cavity is located at different heights and depths.
  • the relative hooking means 31, integral and protruding with respect to the peripheral accessories 30, comprise the plate 32 ending with a hook 36, able to engage in any of the grooves of the double step 41C.
  • peripheral accessories 30 can be removably connected to the seaters 20 according to two inclined positions.
  • ground support plates 50 can be removably connected to the frame 140, through alternative connection means, shown in figure 12 .
  • a crossbar 51 engages at the opposite ends through screws 49, respectively, in the T-shaped cavity 47 of two opposing tracks 40.
  • the crossbar 51 has at least one bushing 52 in which the slab for resting on the ground 50 is inserted and locked.
  • the tracks 40 have shorter sides facing towards the inside than the sides facing outwards, provided only with the upper groove 42A.
  • the crossbar 51 abuts at the ends against the wall 45A of the housing 45 of the track 40, which is perpendicular to the seater 20, contributing to the stability and the rigidity of the frame 140.
  • the track 40 preferably made from aluminium, has a section that is the same along its entire axial extension, with the exception of the cut ends, for example with an inclination of 45°, to make a frame 140 with tracks 40 incident at a right angle.
  • the modular sofa 10 object of the present invention comprises four levels of components, in other words seaters 20, peripheral accessories 30, ground support plates 50 and a frame 140, in which the seaters 20, the peripheral accessories 30 and the ground support plates 50 are all connected to the frame 140, and in particular to the tracks 40 that make it up, in a stable but removable manner.
  • the modular sofa could be equipped with tracks directly connected to the seaters, for example through screws, or it may not be provided with ground support elements at all, as well as having ground support elements, of various forms, directly connected to the seater instead of to the track.
