Definitions

  • This invention relates to a floor-fitting system of articles of furniture.
  • this invention relates to a floor-fitting system of articles of furniture supporting electrical devices.
  • the first problem with this article of furniture is related to the provision of the electricity supply, which is normally achieved with cables passing inside suitable guides which can be walked on resting on the floor.
  • the guides since they necessarily have a certain thickness, constitute an evident obstruction for the users, whose attention in display areas is certainly not being addressed to the floor but to the items on display. Precisely in order to be more visible, these guides are made in particularly conspicuous colours, thereby becoming particularly inconvenient even in terms of appearance.
  • US200804222 A1 discloses a system with male and female fittings to fix a lectern to the floor.
  • the aim of this invention is to provide a system according to claim 1 which comprises an article of furniture and a floor-fitting system capable of overcoming the above-mentioned drawbacks and which is also efficient and practical to use and simple to install.
  • a system according to claim 1 which comprises an article of furniture and a floor-fitting system capable of overcoming the above-mentioned drawbacks and which is also efficient and practical to use and simple to install.
  • an installation method of articles of furniture is provided using a system according to any one of claims 1-8.
  • the numeral 1 denotes in its entirety a floor-fitting system of articles of furniture as being part of the system according to this invention.
  • the fitting actuated by the floor-fitting system 1 is a removable fitting.
  • Figure 5 illustrates an example of an article of furniture, consisting of a container table 2 equipped with a transparent surface 3 through which it is possible to view articles 4 contained inside the table 2.
  • the container table 2 supports a lighting body 5, housed inside it to adequately illuminate the above-mentioned articles 4.
  • the table 1 has a plurality of support legs 6.
  • one of the legs 6 is hollow inside it and houses a first portion 7 of a cable for electrical power supply to the lighting body 5.
  • first fitting 8 extending with axial symmetry.
  • the first fitting 8 is rotatably connected to the leg 6 to rotate about an its central axis A1.
  • the first fitting 8 comprises a portion 8a distal from the leg 6 defining a threaded ring nut, and a proximal movement portion 8b, having a portion 9 for engaging with a tool.
  • the engagement portion 9, illustrated in the accompanying drawings in the form of a hole, allows the partial insertion of a tool, not illustrated, so as to rotate the first fitting 8.
  • the floor-fitting system 1 comprises a base box 11 which is integrated to the floor P of a room.
  • the base box 11 is integrated inside the floor.
  • the base box 11, depending also on its extension in height may extend downwards even below the level of the floor P, touching if necessary the slab S on which the floor P rests.
  • the base box 11 supports a bushing 12 constituting a second fitting extending with axial symmetry.
  • the bushing 12 has a threaded cylindrical inner wall 13 which screwably engages the above-mentioned ring nut 8a, as described in more detail below.
  • the bushing 12 is designed to be positioned flush with the floor P in such a way that, when not used, it may be covered with a suitable cap, not illustrated, without forming any obstruction for the users of the floor P.
  • the first and second fittings 8, 12 are shaped to match to fit one inside the other and define a stable mechanical coupling so as to define a predetermined position for the leg 6.
  • first fitting 8 is rotatably connected to the leg 6 to rotate about its central axis A1
  • the above-mentioned stable mechanical coupling is in any case, apart from the locking means described in more detail below, a rotatable coupling about the above-mentioned central axis A1, designed to allow the required orientation of the article of furniture.
  • first fitting 8 defines a male fitting whilst the second fitting 12 defines a female fitting designed to house the male fitting 8, as clearly illustrated for example in Figure 2 .
  • the base box 11 is advantageously made of sheet metal and defines, inside it, a compartment V for housing a second portion 14 of the above-mentioned electricity supply cable.
  • the floor-fitting system 1 also comprises, connected to the second portion 14 of the cable, a second electrical connector 15, protruding inside the bushing 12 which defines the second female fitting.
  • the first electrical connector 10 and the second electrical connector 15 are designed to connect to each other to allow the electricity supply of the lighting body supported by the table 2.
  • the second electrical connector 15 is located substantially concentric relative to the bushing 12 defining the second fitting or female fitting.
  • the leg 6 is firstly lowered, fitting the first electrical connector 10 inside the bushing 12 until determining the electrical connection of the first connector 10 with the second connector 15 integral with the base box 11.
  • the threaded ring nut 8a is rotated to screwably engage with the above-mentioned threaded cylindrical inner wall 13 of the bushing 12.
  • the user acts on the proximal movement portion 8b as described above, that is to say, introducing a suitable tool, not illustrated, in the engagement portion 9 so as to make the screwing of the ring nut 8a more advantageous.
  • the above-mentioned threaded ring nut 8a defines, for the floor-fitting system 1, respective means for locking the mechanical coupling between the male and female fittings 8, 12.
  • Alternative embodiments, not illustrated, of the locking means comprise snap-on type retaining means.
  • the above-mentioned lighting body 5 defines an example of an electrically powered device supported by the container table 2, in the same way that the container table 2 constitutes an example of a possible article of furniture which can be connected to the system 1 according to the invention.
  • Further articles of furniture which can be connected with the floor-fitting system 1, and not illustrated, are, for example, showcases, lamps, display cabinets, clothes racks, mirrors and the like.
  • the base box 11 protrudes at least partly from the floor, with the bushing 12 therefore positioned substantially inside the box 11.
  • Figures 6 and 7 are further examples of articles of furniture, different from the container table shown in Figure 5 , and using the floor-fitting system 1 of the system according to the invention.
  • Figure 6 illustrates as the article of furniture 2 a mirror supported by a respective support leg 6.
  • the leg 6 supports a lighting body 5.
  • Figure 6 illustrates, on the other hand, as an article of furniture 2, a bookcase comprising a central leg 6 from which extend a plurality of shelves.
  • the leg 6 At its top end, the leg 6 supports a lighting body 5.
  • a cable can emerge from the base box 11 designed for data and/or audio transmission in addition to or alternatively to the electrical connection cable described above.
  • an electrically powered device not illustrated consists in a support for phone or tablet apparatuses equipped with a multiplicity of sockets for recharging the apparatuses, advantageously USB type sockets.
  • a further advantage is the absence of electrical cables on view.
  • the floor-fitting system 1 according to this invention it is possible to connect alternatively a multiplicity of different articles of furniture. Further, by locating a multitude of base boxes 11 in various points of a display area, with respective second fittings 12 and second connectors 15 it is possible to increase the versatility of the room, making it suitable to receive various articles of furniture, depending on the needs which gradually manifest themselves.
  • the rotatable mechanical coupling between the fittings 8 and 12, combined with the fact that the first fitting 8 is rotatably connected to the leg 6, allows the user to orient as required the article of furniture, thus further increasing the versatility of the room in which the article of furniture is inserted.
  • the term floor is intended in a broad sense to mean any wall of a building, whether it relates to an actual floor or a vertical wall, or a ceiling.
