Description

Frontblende für einen Möbelkorpus Front panel for a furniture body
Beschreibung : Description :
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Frontblende für einen Möbelkorpus, die ein Hintergreifen einer mit einer Griffleiste versehenen Stirnseite beweglicher Möbelteile wie Türen, Schubladen oder dergleichen erlaubt, und die eine Kammer für die Aufnahme eines Leuchtmittel aufweist The invention relates to a front panel for a piece of furniture, which allows reaching behind a front side of movable furniture parts, such as doors, drawers or the like, which is provided with a grip strip, and which has a chamber for accommodating a light source
Seit alters her sind Griffe bei Möbeln nicht nur Handhaben für die Betätigung von Schubladen, Türen, Klappen oder dergleichen, sondern auch Stilmittel für eine optische Aufwertung einer Möbelfront. Die Anmutung einer Möbelfront wird heute häufig durch die Verwendung von Griffleisten verbessert, die sich insbesondere über die gesamte Breite eines solchen beweglichen Möbelteils erstrecken. Since time immemorial, handles on furniture have not only been used to operate drawers, doors, flaps or the like, but also as a stylistic device to visually enhance a furniture front. The appearance of a furniture front is nowadays often improved by the use of grip strips, which in particular extend over the entire width of such a movable furniture part.
Neben Griffen, die für eine Betätigung beweglicher Möbelteile wie Türen, Schubladen oder dergleichen unmittelbar mit diesen verbunden sind, sind mit gegenüber einer Vorderseite eines Möbelkorpus' zurückgenommene, beleuchtete Frontblenden bekannt geworden, die ein Hintergreifen einer mit einer Griffleiste versehenen Stirnseite dieser beweglichen Möbelteile erlauben. In addition to handles, which are directly connected to moveable furniture parts such as doors, drawers or the like for actuating them, illuminated front panels set back from the front of a furniture body have become known, which allow reaching behind a front side of these moveable furniture parts that is provided with a handle strip.
Durch die Erfindung wird für die Betätigung beweglicher Möbelteile eine Frontblende der voranstehend beschriebenen Art zur Verfügung gestellt, bei der gemäß des Anspruchs 1 darauf abgestellt wird, dass die einstückig ausgebildete Frontblende eine mehrfach gekrümmte Wand aufweist, die auf einem ersten Endabschnitt die Kammer mit einer Lichtaustrittsöffnung trägt, und dass an dem anderen Ende der The invention provides a front panel of the type described above for the operation of movable furniture parts, in which, according to claim 1, the point is that the one-piece front panel has a multiply curved wall which, on a first end section, contains the chamber with a light exit opening carries, and that at the other end of the
Bestätigungskopiej Wand ein Boden angeschlossen ist, der mit einem zweiten Endabschnitt der gekrümmten Wand und einer Montageebene einen Kanal zumindest mit ausbildet. confirmation copyj Wall is connected to a floor, which at least forms a channel with a second end portion of the curved wall and a mounting plane.
Die einstückige Ausbildung der Frontblende erlaubt eine kostengünstige Fertigung als Meterware bspw. aus einem Kunststoff, aber auch aus einem Metall, bspw. hochwertig aus einem Aluminium. The one-piece design of the front panel allows cost-effective production as bulk goods, for example from a plastic, but also from a metal, for example from a high-quality aluminum.
Durch das auf die Vorderseite der Wand fallende Licht der Leuchtmittel wird ein Lichtband geschaffen, dass sich insbesondere über die gesamte Breite des Möbelteils, insbesondere auch über ein gesamtes Möbel hinzieht. The light from the lamps falling on the front side of the wall creates a band of light that in particular extends over the entire width of the furniture part, in particular also over an entire piece of furniture.
Dabei wird von der mehrfach gekrümmte Wand das durch die Lichtaustrittsöffnung der Kammer für die Aufnahme von Leuchtmitteln fallende Licht gleichsam entlang der Wand hin zu der Griffleiste geführt, womit der Raum zwischen der Griffleiste des beweglichen Möbelteils und der Wand sicher ausgeleuchtet wird. The light falling through the light exit opening of the chamber for accommodating lamps is guided from the multiply curved wall along the wall to the handle strip, so to speak, whereby the space between the handle strip of the movable furniture part and the wall is reliably illuminated.
Da die Frontblende gegenüber der Möbelfront zumindest teilweise zurückgenommen ist, verhindert der zunächst von dem beweglichen Möbelteil in Richtung des Korpusinneren verlaufende zweite Endabschnitt der Wand weitgehend einen Lichteinfall in das Innere des Möbels bzw. das Hinterleuchten des beweglichen Möbelteils. Dabei ist von Vorteil, dass dieser zweite Endabschnitt sich über den Boden gegen eine Montageebene abstützt. Damit ist eine ausreichende mechanische Stabilität gegeben. Auch kann der hierdurch entstehende Kanal mannigfaltig genutzt werden, bspw. für eine Verkabelung . Since the front panel is at least partially set back from the furniture front, the second end section of the wall, initially running from the movable furniture part in the direction of the body interior, largely prevents light from entering the interior of the furniture or backlighting the movable furniture part. It is advantageous that this second end section is supported on the floor against a mounting plane. This provides sufficient mechanical stability. The resulting channel can also be used in a variety of ways, for example for cabling.
Für ein Festlegen der Frontblende an dem Möbelkorpus bieten sich übliche Verbindungstechniken wie Verschrauben, Verkleben oder dergleichen durchaus an. Bevorzugt stehen jedoch der Wand rückseitig an der Montageebene endende Verriegelungs und/oder Abstandselemente für ein Festlegen an dem Möbelkorpus vor, bspw. in einem Querschnitt L-förmig und/oder T-förmig ausgebildet. Eine Verriegelung, beispielsweise durch ein Einschieben in entsprechende Nuten des Möbelteils, gegebenenfalls einer oder mehrerer Montageplatten, ist nicht nur eine sichere, sondern auch eine unsichtbare Befestigung. Als Abstandselemente ausgebildet, definieren diese Elemente die Position der Frontblende bspw. in einer Nut in dem Korpus. Darüber hinaus versteifen solche in einem Querschnitt L-förmige und/oder T-förmige Verriegelungs- oder Abstandselemente die Wand. Conventional connection techniques such as screwing, gluing are available for fixing the front panel to the furniture body or something like that. Preferably, however, locking and/or spacer elements ending at the mounting level protrude from the rear of the wall for attachment to the furniture body, for example, are L-shaped and/or T-shaped in cross section. Locking, for example by sliding into corresponding grooves in the furniture part, possibly one or more mounting plates, is not only a secure but also an invisible attachment. Designed as spacer elements, these elements define the position of the front panel, for example in a groove in the body. In addition, such locking or spacer elements that are L-shaped and/or T-shaped in a cross-section reinforce the wall.
So kann der Kanal über dem Boden auch durch ein Verriegelungs- und/oder Abstandselement in einfacher Weise geschlossen werden. Thus, the channel above the floor can also be closed in a simple manner by a locking and/or spacer element.
Bei der Frontblende nach der Erfindung kann auch oberseitig ein Kanal ausgebildet werden, wenn vorgesehen wird, dass an einer Deckseite der Kammer ein vertikal aufgehender Wandabschnitt angeschlossen ist, der mit einer rechtwinkligen Abwinklung versehen ist, die in der Montageebene endet. A channel can also be formed on the top side of the front panel according to the invention if it is provided that a vertically rising wall section is connected to a top side of the chamber, which is provided with a right-angled bend that ends in the mounting plane.
Ist der Wandabschnitt an einer Ecke zwischen der Deckseite und einer Vorderwand der Kammer angeschlossen, so kann durch den Wandabschnitt eine Möbelfront mit ausgebildet werden. If the wall section is connected at a corner between the top side and a front wall of the chamber, a furniture front can also be formed by the wall section.
Die Stabilität in dem Bereich der Kammer kann dadurch erhöht werden, dass die Deckseite der Kammer eine bis in die Montageebene reichende Verlängerung aufweist. The stability in the region of the chamber can be increased in that the top side of the chamber has an extension that extends into the assembly plane.
Die Lichtführung entlang der Wand wird durch die Maßnahme weiter verbessert, wenn eine senkrecht auf der Wand stehende Lichtaustrittsöffnung der Kammer durch ein Streifen aus einem transparenten Material geschlossen ist, der einen dreiecksförmigen Querschnitt aufweist. The guidance of light along the wall is further improved by the measure when a light exit opening of the chamber, which is perpendicular to the wall, is replaced by a strip of a transparent material is closed, which has a triangular cross section.
Der Streifen aus einem transparenten Material schützt die Leuchtmittel vor einer Verschmutzung und ist beispielsweise bei einer Verwendung im Küchenbereich dennoch leicht zu reinigen, um einen optimalen Lichtaustritt zu gewährleisten. Durch den dreiecksförmigen Querschnitt wirkt der Streifen darüber hinaus wie ein das ausfallende Licht bündelnder Lichtleiter . The strip made of a transparent material protects the bulbs from dirt and is easy to clean, for example when used in the kitchen area, to ensure optimal light emission. Due to the triangular cross-section, the strip also acts like a light guide that bundles the emitted light.
In konstruktiver Ausgestaltung kann vorgesehen sein, dass der Streifen und/oder ein LED-Band in Nuten in gegenüberliegenden Wänden der Kammer gehalten ist/sind und/oder dass den gegenüberliegenden Wänden Nasen vorstehen, die in Nuten des Streifens und/oder des LED-Bandes eingreifen. In a structural configuration it can be provided that the strip and/or an LED strip is/are held in grooves in opposite walls of the chamber and/or that lugs protrude from the opposite walls, which lugs protrude into grooves of the strip and/or the LED strip intervention.
Auch wenn LED-Bänder als Leuchtmittel Verwendung finden, die eine vergleichsweise hohe Lebensdauer haben, ist dennoch ein Austausch über die Stirnseiten der Frontblende nach der Erfindung, gegebenenfalls nach Entfernen einer Abdeckkappe, problemlos möglich. Even if LED strips are used as light sources, which have a comparatively long service life, they can still be exchanged without any problems via the end faces of the front panel according to the invention, optionally after removing a cover cap.
Gleiches gilt für den Streifen aus transparentem Material, beispielsweise nach einem Verkratzen oder Eindrücken. Auch ist durch einen Austausch des LED-Bandes und/oder des Streifens ein Farbwechsel ohne großen Aufwand möglich. The same applies to the strip of transparent material, for example after being scratched or indented. A color change is also possible without much effort by exchanging the LED strip and/or the strip.
Durch solche Maßnahmen ist eine geschlossene, fronseitige Ansicht sichergestellt und wird eine hohe mechanische Stabilität erreicht. Such measures ensure a closed, front view and achieve high mechanical stability.
Das so erhaltene Möbel mit einer Frontblende nach der Erfindung mit einer Griffleiste aus einem eine Griffmulde aufweisenden Vollprofil, das in einer rechtwinkligen Eckausnehmung in einer Stirnseite des beweglichen Möbelteils eingesetzt ist, das weiter mit einer Nase die Stirnseite übergreift und das mit einem unterseitigen Verriegelungselement in das Möbelteil eingreift, genügt höchsten Ansprüchen. The furniture thus obtained with a front panel according to the invention with a handle bar from a full profile having a recessed grip, which is in a right-angled Corner recess is used in a front side of the movable furniture part, which further overlaps the front side with a nose and which engages in the furniture part with a locking element on the underside, satisfies the highest demands.
Die Erfindung wird anhand der Zeichnung näher erläutert, in der lediglich Ausführungsbeispiele dargestellt sind. In der Zeichnung zeigt: The invention is explained in more detail with reference to the drawing, in which only exemplary embodiments are shown. In the drawing shows:

Die in der Zeichnung dargestellte, einstückig ausgebildete Frontblende 1 ist gegenüber einer Front 2 eines Möbelkorpus'The one-piece front panel 1 shown in the drawing is opposite a front 2 of a furniture body.
3 soweit zurückgenommen, dass für eine Betätigung eines beweglichen Möbelteils 4 wie einer Türe, einer Schubladen oder dergleichen eine massive Griffleiste 5 mit einer Griffmulde 6 hintergriffen werden kann. 3 is withdrawn to such an extent that a solid handle strip 5 with a recessed grip 6 can be gripped behind for actuation of a movable furniture part 4 such as a door, a drawer or the like.
Die Frontblende 1 eignet sich insbesondere als horizontales Zwischenprofil zwischen einer Ober- und einer Unterseite eines Möbelkorpus. The front panel 1 is particularly suitable as a horizontal intermediate profile between an upper side and an underside of a furniture body.
Die Frontblende 1 weist eine gleichsam ein Rückgrad ausbildende, mehrfach gekrümmte Wand 7 auf, die auf einem ersten Endanschnitt 8 eine in einer Frontansicht des Möbelkorpus 3 sichtbar verbleibende Kammer 9 für die Aufnahme von Leuchtmitteln 10 trägt. Die Rückwand 11 der Kammer 9 wird dabei von der Wand 7 ausgebildet. Die Wände der Kammer 9 sind lichtundurchlässig und belassen eine Lichtaustrittsöffnung 12, die durch ein Streifen 13 von dreiecksförmigen Querschnitt aus einem transparenten Material geschlossen ist. The front panel 1 has a multiply curved wall 7 that forms a backbone, as it were, which carries on a first end section 8 a chamber 9 that remains visible in a front view of the furniture carcass 3 for accommodating light sources 10 . The rear wall 11 of the chamber 9 is formed by the wall 7 . The walls of the chamber 9 are opaque, leaving a light exit opening 12 closed by a strip 13 of triangular cross-section of a transparent material.
Damit fällt das Licht der Leuchtmittel 10 ausschließlich durch den transparenten Streifen 12 auf die Wand 7 und leuchtet den Zwischenraum zwischen der Griffleiste 6 und der Wand 7 aus. Damit erscheint in einer Ansicht ein Lichtband über die Länge der Frontblende 1. Dabei verhindert ein zweiter Endabschnitt 14 einen Lichtenfall in den Möbelkorpus 3 bzw. ein Hinterleuchten des beweglichen Möbelteils 4. The light from the lamps 10 thus falls onto the wall 7 exclusively through the transparent strip 12 and illuminates the space between the handle strip 6 and the wall 7 . In one view, a light band appears across the length of the front panel 1. A second end section 14 prevents light falling into the furniture body 3 or backlighting of the movable furniture part 4.
In der Kammer 9 ist der Streifen 13 in einer Nut in der Wand 11 bzw. von einer Nase der Vorderwand 15 in einer Ausnehmung in dem Streifen 13 gehalten. Auch das die Leuchtmittel 10 tragende LED-Band an dem der Lichtaustrittsöffnung 12 gegenüberliegenden Ende der Kammer 9 ist in Nuten gefangen.
