Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a modular furniture system for various purposes, comprising at least one basic furniture module, which consists of a backrest element, a basic seat module, two upholstery elements and several foot elements.
  • modular furniture systems which consist of several furniture units that can be detachably connected and fixed with one another.
  • a generic modular seating furniture is described, for example, in EP 3 292 793 A1.
  • the seating consists of individual seating elements.
  • the seating furniture elements can be connected to one another by connecting units, with several connecting recesses being provided on the underside in a grid-like manner in each seating furniture element.
  • Each connecting unit has a foot element and connector pins, the foot element being arranged as the foot of the chair and the connector pins being arranged opposite the foot element in accordance with the connecting recesses of the seating furniture element.
  • the seating furniture elements with the connector units can be connected to and detached from one another from below the seating furniture elements without tools and as desired in various ways.
  • a seat part of the modular seating furniture shown in EP 3 292 793 A1 does not consist of two basic elements that can be connected to one another, but the seat part is designed in one piece so that the seating furniture cannot be shipped inexpensively in a package.
  • connection fitting for connecting several pieces of furniture to form a seating group.
  • the fitting consists of a clamp arm and a bolt plate.
  • the clamping arm is arranged in the plane of the underside of the furniture and has resiliently expandable latches Longitudinal slots.
