Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a furniture module, which can be used to make up items of furniture three-dimensionally including one or more of said modules, and to a kit for assembly thereof.
  • furniture designed to be assembled by the user themself often has a number of drawbacks.
  • One such drawback is that once the furniture has been assembled, if it is to be moved it has to be emptied and even dismantled into the component parts of the module. This is because the structure of this type of furniture is not strong enough to allow said furniture to be transported together with the objects contained inside and because the modules are not very versatile, being simply a component of the furniture for which they were designed, and in no case intended for transporting items during a house move.
  • Another aim of the present invention is to disclose self-supporting furniture that can serve as a holder/shelving unit in the home and as a packing for transport without the need to empty the household furniture, saving a lot of time from the viewpoint of packing as well as sorting and unpacking at the new destination, both in the case of house moves and when moving from one location to another in the same property.
  • the present invention discloses a furniture module of essentially regular quadrangular prismatic shape, this module being open on only one of its faces, in which the height of the module is twice the width of the rectangular bases, and comprising module connection means on at least one of its long faces.
  • the width and depth of the furniture module are the same, the height being twice the value of either the width or depth.
  • the particular shape of the module together with the means for connection to other modules, makes it very versatile as regards the compositions that can be obtained.
  • the compositions that can be obtained are three-dimensional.
  • it allows it to be used as a portable box for the storage and transport of objects during house moves.
  • the furniture module according to the present invention further comprises module connection means on one of its bases. More preferably, said furniture module comprises module connection means on all of its faces.
  • This increases the possible combinations that can be achieved with the modules and therefore increases the number of possible items of furniture that can be created using these modules.
  • These combinations may be two-dimensional, i.e. constructed in a single plane or along two Cartesian axes, or may be three-dimensional, the various furniture modules may be put together or combined along three Cartesian axes.
  • module connection means comprise module connection holes.
  • the furniture module according to the present invention comprises two module connection holes on its long faces, both holes being aligned with the longitudinal axis on its respective long face.
  • each module connection hole is half the width of the bases of the module.
  • the various modules are connected by inserting securing means through two holes for connecting two different modules, such that the two modules are firmly secured together.
  • Said securing means may be, for example, a screw and a nut, or the like.
  • the module connection hole in each base is located in the center thereof.
  • the furniture module according to the present invention is open on only one of its long faces.
  • the furniture module according to the present invention is open on only one of its short faces or bases.
  • the faces of the furniture module according to the present invention are defined by boards of uniform thickness, whatever this thickness is. This means that the furniture module is self-supporting, since all of the boards forming the module play a structural role. This ensures that the module can be used to transport relatively heavy loads during house moves.
  • the furniture module according to the present invention further comprises at least one shelf.
  • the furniture module according to the present invention comprises a door.
  • the door is hinged to one of the long faces of the item of furniture according to the present invention.
  • the door is hinged to one of the bases of the item of furniture according to the present invention.
  • connection means Regarding the location of the connection means, it should be understood that the expressions “on one of its faces”, “on all of its faces”, “on its long faces”, etc. do not include the open face of the furniture module according to the present invention.
  • the side of the bases of the module measures between 35 and 39 cm, more preferably 36 cm. This allows the module to offer the following advantages:
  • the module has the ideal size and dimensions such that it does not have to be dismantled entirely and can be transported without the need to remove the contents. This feature drastically reduces the cost of packing when moving and, therefore, is environmentally friendly.
  • the furniture module is a container for moving and also facilitates moves using smaller vehicles. Moreover, said furniture module may be assembled just once, in other words it is not necessary to completely dismantle and re-assemble it when it is to be moved.
  • the present invention also discloses an item of furniture comprising a plurality of modules according to the present invention.
  • the plurality of modules is connected together by means of respective module connection means.
  • the plurality of modules is connected together by means of respective module connection holes.
  • the modules are arranged to form a shelving unit.
  • the item of furniture according to the present invention comprises a board connected to at least two modules at opposite ends of the board, arranged such that they form a table.
  • Another aim of the present invention is to disclose a kit for assembly of a furniture module according to the present invention, which comprises:
  • each one of said boards comprises module connection means.
  • the module connection means comprise module connection holes.
  • the kit for assembly of a furniture module according to the present invention further comprises at least one board of thickness g having a width A-2g and a length A-g.
  • the kit for assembly of a furniture module according to the present invention further comprises at least one board of thickness g having a width A-2g and a length 2A-2g.
  • the kit according to the present invention is made up of seven assembled parts (two bases, three lateral faces and two parts, one corresponding to a transverse shelf and another which is longitudinal) for creating a self-supporting box (assembled vertically, horizontally and in all axial directions) that can be used to configure multiple items of furniture in the dwelling.
  • module and “furniture module” are used as equivalents and interchangeably.
  • a regular quadrangular prism is considered to be a specific case of a rectangular prism.
  • a square is considered to be a specific case of a quadrilateral.
  • the directions: horizontal, vertical, above, below, etc. are understood with reference to the position of rest of the furniture or furniture module, in other words with reference to the position in which one of the faces is placed on the floor or parallel to the floor.
  • drawings showing an embodiment of a furniture module and an item of furniture according to the present invention are attached by way of illustrative but non-limiting example.
  • the lengths, relative distances, etc. are defined on the basis of the parameters A and g, A being the width of the furniture module 1 and g the thickness of the boards of which it is composed. What matters is the ratios established between A and g, not the values that these parameters may have.
  • Figures 1A, 1B and 1C show three embodiments of a furniture module according to the present invention.
  • the furniture module 1 is in a vertical or upright position, in other words with the long sides 20, 20', or lateral sides, perpendicular to the floor and with the short sides 10, 10', or top and bottom covers, parallel to the floor.
