Definitions

  • the present invention concerns an extensible table comprising at least a cover plate, at least an extension plate that in the state of table not extended is placed at least partly under the cover plate and in the state of table extended is placed at the same height with the cover plate adjacent to it, and an extension mechanism for passing from the table not extended state to the table extended state and vice-versa, in which the extension mechanism comprises drive members for moving the extension plate relative to said cover plate, and operating members for controlling the movement of said drive members, and in which the drive members comprise at least a horizontal rail and a parallelogram kinematic system.
  • extension plate plates
  • cover plate plates
  • the extension mechanism comprises drive members for moving the extension plate relative to the cover plate comprising, in addiction to horizontally sliding members, also a parallelogram kinematic system supporting the extension plate and operating members for actuating the movement of the parallelogram kinematic system.
  • EP 1 371 305 B1 it is described another extensible table of the above type in which the movement from the extended state to the not extended state and vice-versa can be completely or partly automatic.
  • the operating members comprise operating members for passing to the extended state which are physically separated and different from the operating members for passing to the not extended state.
  • the operating members for moving to the extended state comprise at least a flexible pull cable Z bound at one end to a rail portion S3 integral to a cover plate TP1 and bound at the other end to a point of action AP of a lever H which is part of the parallelogram kinematic system which lifts the extension plate TP3.
  • the mutual movement of the rail portions S1, S2 and S3 leads to a force applied to the point of action AP of the lever H by the cable Z so that the lever H rotates around its pivoting axis SA.
  • the operating members for passing to the not extended state comprise elastic hook shaped driver devices M and M1 integral to a cover plate TP2 and cooperating with the extension plate TP3.
  • the extension mechanism described in EP 1 371 305 B1 is an automatic one but the operating members are not so efficient, mainly the operating members for passing to the not extended state and they also have to be directly bound to the cover plate which could affect the safety of use features of the table.
  • an extensible table comprising at least a cover plate, at least an extension plate that in the state of table not extended is placed at least partially under the cover plate and in the state of table extended is placed at the same height with the cover plate adjacent to it, and an extension mechanism for passing from the table not extended state to the table extended state and vice-versa
  • the extension mechanism comprises drive members for moving said extension plate relative to said cover plate, and operating members for controlling the movement of said drive members
  • said drive members comprise at least a guide comprising at least two guide elements mutually sliding with a first guide element connected to the extension plate through a lever mechanism comprising levers hinges to the extension plate and to the first guide element in order to compose an articulated parallelogram kinematic system, and a second guide element integral to the cover plate
  • the operating members comprise at least a first operating element integral to the second guide element and acting upon one of the levers, and at least a second resilient operating element integral to the second guide element and acting upon the lever.
  • the table of the present invention can be brought from the extended state to the not extended state and vice-versa by simply translating the cover plate.
  • the operating members cooperating only with the levers of the parallelogram kinematic system allow very low production costs and great versatility.
  • the first operating element acts upon the lever at an intermediate region between an upper hinge member and a lower hinge member of the lever and the second operating element acts upon a protrusion of the lever extending from the lower hinge member.
  • the second operating member is a leaf spring.
  • the extensible table comprises two cover plates and a transmission assembly for transmitting movement from one cover plate to the other cover plate so that when a cover plate moves to the other cover plate it performs a mirror movement with reference to a center vertical plane of the table.
  • the transmission assembly comprises two pulleys rotatably bound to opposite longitudinal ends of the first guide element, at least a flexible cable extending between the pulleys for performing a circumferential path, and binding elements for binding a second guide element integral to one cover plate to a lower path of the flexible cable and another second guide element integral to the other cover plate to the upper path of the flexible cable, respectively.
  • the extensible table 100 comprises a cover plate, 10, a further cover plate, 20, and an extension state, 30, that in the not extended state is placed under the cover plates 10 and 20 partially covered by both plates, while in the extended states it is at the same height with the cover plates 10 and 20 adjacent to them.
  • figs. 2a and 2b the extensible table according to the embodiment of fig. 1 is shown in a side view without its legs and the extension members for moving the cover plates and the extension plate are better shown.
  • the table 100 is in its not extended state with the cover plate 10 adjacent to the other cover plate 20 and the extension plate 30 is placed underneath, covered in part by the cover plate 10 and in part by the cover plate 20.
  • Drive members 40 are mounted below the plates 10, 20 and 30 and they comprise a horizontal guide 41 composed of a first guide element, 41 a and second guide elements , 41 b, 41 c, and a set of levers 45a, 45n, each hinged at two points.
  • the first guide element 41a is a fixed horizontal rail connected to the leg supporting structure (not shown) and the second guide elements 41 b and 41 c are horizontally slide members integral to the first cover plate 10 and the second cover plate 20 respectively.
  • the movement of the second guide element 41 c is depending on the movement of the other second guide element 41 b by a transmission assembly composed of two pulleys 42a, 42b, rotatably bound at opposite longitudinal ends of the first guide element 41 a, a flexible cable, 43, forming a closed loop circumferential path between the pulleys 42a and 42b, and binding element, 44a and 44c for binding the second guide element 41 b to the lower path of the flexible cable 43 and the other second guide element 41 c to the upper path of the flexible cable 43, respectively.
  • each lever 45a, 45n of the lever mechanism is hinged at its lower end to the first guide element 41 a, at the side opposite to the pulleys 42a, 42b, by first hinge members, 46a, 46n, and it is also hinged at its upper end to the extension plate 30 by second hinge members 47a, 47n, so that the first guide element 41 a, the extension plate 30 and the levers 45a, 45n form together an articulated parallelogram kinematic system which allows the extension plate 30 to perform with respect to the first guide element 41 a a translation movement according to a curve path.
  • the second guide elements 41 b and 41 c and the cover plates 10 and 20 are shown with broken line in the most outward protruding position they assume in their run from the not extended state to the extended state and vice
  • FIG. 3 to 6 is shown a side view of a portion of the table according to the embodiment of fig. 1 during steps of the run from the not extended state to the extended state and vice-versa emphasizing the way in which operating members, 50, work for controlling the movement of the levers 45a, 45n as a function of the movement of the second guide element 41 b relative to the first guide element 41 a.
  • the operating members 50 are composed of a carriage, 51, mounting a first operating member, 52, integral to it, and a second resilient operating member, 53.
  • the table is shown in the extended state.
  • the cover plate 10 is moved in the direction of arrow F3 of fig. 3d and, as a consequence, also the cover plate 20 moves in the direction of arrow F4 of fig. 3d , until the cover plates 10 and 20 are adjacent to the extension plate 30 which is now at a same height with them.
  • the second operating member 53 is bent, as shown in fig. 5c , by the protrusion 48 of the lever 45a, so it passes through the protrusion without operating the lever 45a.
  • the above described extensible table has an extension mechanism which allows moving the extension plate from the not extended state to the extended state and vice-versa by simply outward shifting a cover plate and then moving it back inward.
  • the operating mechanism is very simple so that the production costs are low.
  • the drive mechanism can be used with any types of cover plates and extension plates.
  • a different embodiment of an extensible table according to the invention could have just one cover plate, and the transmission members 42a, 42b, 43, 44a, 44b could be not required in that case.
  • the drive members could be different in shape but still useful to allow the above described movements in which the cover plate 10 perform a horizontal translation and the extension plate 30 a translation according to a curve path.
  • the guides and the levers of the drive members could be in a different amount and of a different shape, according to the size and shape of the table.
