Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a perfected system with front and rear feet for the levelling of furniture.
  • the invention is particularly suitable for being applied to furniture in which the space beneath the bottom of the piece of furniture must be completely free, such as, for example, in kitchen bases, and where the distance between said bottom and the floor is minimum, making front access to the rear feet of the system impossible.
  • a levelling system of this type is described for example in EP1748710 , in which the adjustable feet are assembled laterally with respect to the shoulder of the piece of furniture, by means of a specific support.
  • EP1748710 should be considered as being an integrant part of the present description.
  • the levelling system according to EP1748710 is only suitable for furniture, such as wardrobes, in which the shoulders extend to the floor: i.e. where the shoulders extend downwards beyond the bottom of the piece of furniture. In this type of furniture, in fact, it is not necessary to have free space beneath the bottom.
  • a levelling system according to EP1748710 is not adequate for furniture, such as for example kitchen bases, in which the shoulders do not reach the floor, but end in correspondence with the edge of the bottom. In this type of furniture, in fact, the necessity is strongly felt for having the space beneath the bottom completely free, for example for the passage of hydraulic and/or electrical systems.
  • a further levelling system is shown by AU2009227484 A1 it discloses the technical features of the preamble of claim 1.
  • the general objective of the present invention is to provide a levelling system for furniture, with adjustable front and rear feet, which is particularly suitable for furniture in which the shoulders end in correspondence with the edge of the bottom of the furniture itself.
  • a further objective of the invention is to provide a levelling system for furniture of the type described above, in which the rear feet can be regulated from the front, also when there is a minimum distance between the floor and the bottom of the piece of furniture.
  • Another objective of the invention is to provide a levelling system comprising a plurality of front and rear feet, and relative supports, wherein the feet and supports can all be the same, regardless of their positioning, right or left, front or rear.
  • Yet another objective of the invention is to provide a system comprising front and rear feet the same as each other, wherein a base can be applied to said feet not only frontally but also laterally (on three sides), in so-called "peninsula” furniture.
  • figure 1 partially illustrates a piece of furniture 30, for example a piece of kitchen furniture (base), in which the shoulders 31 (sides) terminate in correspondence with a bottom 32, i.e. they do not reach the floor (not shown).
  • the bottom 32 is arranged, in correspondence with the angles, with four groups of holes 33, facing downwards, for fixing characteristic front and rear plaques 34, 34' respectively ( figures 2 and 3 ).
  • the holes 33 of each group are situated at the vertexes of a triangle and the groups are symmetrical with respect to each other.
  • plaques 34, 34' produced according to the present invention are identical to each other, only the orientation changes (right, left - front, rear).
  • Said plaques 34, 34' are destined for receiving in a stable and oriented manner - as explained hereunder - respective adjustable feet 35, 35' also identical to each other ( figures 3 and 4 ).
  • said plaques 34, 34' are made of a plastic material and have a generally square or "L"-shaped configuration, and a substantially box-shaped structure, with a lower surface 36 and a perimetric edge 37. Said square configuration defines wings A substantially positioned at 90° with respect to each other. Said feet 35, 35' are assembled in the vertex defined by said wings A.
  • a central pin 38, and two end pins 39 extend from each plaque 34, 34', from the side opposite the surface 36, said pins 38, 39 are positioned according to the vertexes of the triangle defined by the holes 33. Said pins 38, 39 are destined for being inserted with pressure interference into the holes 33 for the stable fixing of the plaques 34, 34' to the bottom 32 of the piece of furniture 30.
  • the central pin 38 is hollow and defines, on the surface 36, a cylindrical seat 40 for the oriented assembly of the adjustable feet 35, 35'.
  • said cylindrical seat 40 has four grooves 41 along generatrices and positioned at 90°.
  • the seat 40 is characteristically provided with four access openings 42.
  • said openings 42 are accessible from the edge 37 of the plaque 34, 34' through two pairs of radial passages 43, 43' and 44, 44'.
  • the pair of passages 43, 43' serves for regulating the front right and left feet 35, whereas the pair 44, 44' regulates the rear feet 35'.
  • the plaque 34, 34' is also provided with a bolt 45 which serves for the blockage of a polygonal return and regulation rod 46 of the rear adjustable feet.
  • Said bolt 45 comprises a vertical cursor 47, manually controlled to slide within a seat 48 situated on the perimetric edge 37 of the plaque 34, 34', in correspondence with passages 49,49' for the above return rod 46.
  • the sliding of the cursor 47 is controlled by means of a command key 50 which extends perpendicularly from the same.
  • a cavity 51 is situated in said cursor 47, suitable for being click-inserted on a shaped end-section 52 of the rod 46.
  • said cavity 51 is click-engaged, astride a plurality of annular throats 53, blocking the rod 46 in position.
  • the click-engagement is achieved thanks to an opening of the cavity 51 which is narrower than the diameter of the polygonal rod 46 and due to the elasticity of the structure of the same cursor 47.
  • the first of said passages 49 is substantially parallel to the second of said passages 43, and substantially perpendicular to the third of said passages whereas the fourth of said passages 49' is substantially parallel to the fifth of said passages 43', and substantially perpendicular to the sixth of said passages
  • the adjustable feet 35, 35' are structurally composed of three components: a central regulation mechanism 54 contained between a circular base 55 and a substantially cylindrical body 56.
  • the mechanism 54 serves for regulating the height of the adjustable feet 35,35' by acting between the base 55 and the body 56 inserted on the plaque 34, 34'.
  • Said regulation mechanism 54 is housed in a complementary seat 57 of the body 56.
  • the mechanism 54 has a shaped hole 58 for the access of a manoeuvring tool U, which is aligned with an opening 59 of the body 56.
  • the body 56 containing the mechanism 54 thus oriented, is in turn, inserted in a complementary cylindrical seat 60 which extends from the base 55.
  • the mechanism 54 with its perforated base 61 is engaged on a protruding shank 62 inside from said base 55.
  • the adjustable feet 35,35' produced as described above, are coupled with the plaque 34,34' by the insertion of an external section 63 of the body 56 inside the complementary seat 40.
  • the correct orientation of the feet 35, 35', with the opening 59 aligned with the passage 43, 43'-44, 44', is determined by the selective insertion of a reference ribbing 64 inside the correct groove 41 among the four grooves at 90° present in the seat 40.
  • the correct insertion level of the feet 35,35' is determined by a collar 65 of the body 56 which is buffered against the surface 36 of the plaque 34,34'.
  • each pair comprises a front foot 35 and a rear foot 35' which are operatively interconnected by the return rod 46 for the regulation of the rear foot.
  • plaques 34, 34' of each pair are rotated by 90° with respect to each other (right plaque and left plaque).
  • the front and rear feet of each pair must be operatively connected. This is effected by passing the rod 46 through the passages 49, 49' of the respective plaques 34, 34', until the free end of the polygonal rod 46 becomes engaged with the complementary hollow control head 58' of the mechanism 54, passing through the passages 44, 44' of the plaques 34, 34' ( figures 5-8 , 24 ).
  • the section 52 of the rod 46 is in correspondence with the bolt 45 which is lowered so as to allow the cursor 47 to become click-engaged inside one of the throats 53, thus blocking the rod 46 in the correct maneuvering position ( figures 9-23 ).
  • the front regulation of the rear feet 35' can therefore be effected by introducing a tool U into the seat S, having a complementary shape, situated at the free end of the section 52 of the return rod 46: see figure 9 .
  • the regulation of the front feet 35 is effected directly by introducing the tool U through the passages 43, 43' of the front plaques 34, 34', the control head 58' of the mechanism 54 having access through said passages: see figure 8 .
  • 66 indicates as a whole a basic piece of furniture, so-called "peninsula”, in which, thanks to the use of the levelling system according to the invention, a base 61 can be applied on the three sides of the "peninsula", using symmetrical holes 33 and feet 35, 35', with relative plaques 34, 34', all identical to each other (right, left - front, rear) and arranged specularly with respect to each other.
