Description

Furniture leveling foot perfected

Object of the invention

\hbox{del montaje.}

The present specification refers to a request for an invention corresponding to a perfected furniture leveling leg, of which they are height adjustable applicable to all types of furniture and especially those that are mounted using modular elements, whose obvious purpose is based in being able to regulate in a simple and comfortable way from the interior of the furniture, presenting a special configuration for a robust fixation of the lower part of the furniture and a telescopic extension system for a simple leveling of the furniture assembly eliminating simultaneously the inconveniences

 \ hbox {of the mount.} 

Field of the Invention

This invention has its application within the industry dedicated to the manufacture, assembly and trade of furniture including modular furniture and auxiliary furniture.

Background of the invention

The applicant is aware of the existence of diversity of legs with systems for fixing in furniture that allows a subsequent regulation of its length and set leveling:

Systems inserted in drills made in the lower edge of the lateral vertical uprights, with the inconvenience of risk of breakage when drilling and greater fragility before horizontal efforts such as in displacements

Regulation systems by turning the legs with threaded end, by radial actuation from the exterior of the furniture, which forces to work in a very position low and with difficult access to the bottom legs that also give usually to a wall.

Systems with non-asymmetric positioning fixed on the vertical zippers of uprights drills but in additional side holes, so they have laterality (the pieces on the left side are not worth the right and vice versa).

Totally exterior systems that entrust the effort of securing the weight of the furniture to hardware elements and thus subjecting vertical assemblies to stresses very located on their drills, with the consequent risk of break.

The applicant does not have knowledge of the existence of a leg for leveling furniture like the one the present invention proposes that it eliminates from Simultaneously the mentioned problems.

Description of the invention

The furniture leveling leg perfected, now advocated, is formed on the one hand by a main body in the form of an orthopedic block and, on the other hand, by a telescopic arm constituted by a screw regulator of its length and a support base. The main body It is equipped with horizontal tabs on which the lower edge of the lateral and upright vertical uprights solidly the weight of the furniture, said main body being fixed to the  side upright of the furniture through a zipper drills using a screw system. The action of Horizontal tabs frees the union screws of the vertical efforts due to the weight that would produce harmful flexor moments on the walls of the holes of the lateral uprights, which achieves greater robustness. He main body has a threaded vertical drill in which adjust the regulating screw.

The main body is configured preferably, as will be explained in the exposition of the preferred embodiment of die-cut and folded sheet metal of special way, all in one piece without additional operations and without parts to assemble, so it is very simple and economical to manufacture.

The telescopic arm is composed of a base of support on the ground and a regulating screw, a cylinder externally threaded, which adjusts on the main body and by which can slide vertically and, by regulating its length per turn, allows the leveling of the furniture.

The length of the telescopic arm is regulated comfortably from above and inside the furniture without need to duck under, by means of a clamping tool by axial action (such as an Allen wrench or screwdriver) that crosses a hole made in the lower horizontal table of the furniture, in the vertical axis of the telescopic arm and acts on the upper end of the regulating screw, which adapts a appropriate way to receive the turning moment such as some kind mortise or relief either linear, cross, crenellated, square, hexagonal or other prismatic shape or, in general any other tightening system

The regulating screw rests on its end bottom on the support base, consisting of a disk flared or with rubber base or some similar solution.

Preferred Embodiment of the Invention

In view of the figures and references mentioned a preferred mode of execution where you can it should be noted that the perfected furniture leveling leg of those that are adjustable in height, is constituted by a body main (1) and a telescopic arm (19), the body being Main (1) preferably of die-cut sheet metal and folded in a special way in "U" to form the faces verticals of the main body (1). The base of the "U" presents a series of horizontal drills (5) for fixing from the main body (1) to the lateral vertical upright (3) of the furniture, in the rack of holes (10) using the screws  union (18) that exerts only traction on it horizontal and not vertical or flexural stresses and a extension that bends at a right angle to the ends of the "U" to form the base (6) of the main body (1). At counterclockwise to the arms of the "U" the base (6) of the main body (1) extends in the form of horizontal tabs drilled (2) on which the lower edge is supported and screwed of the lateral vertical uprights (3) and supporting solidly the weight of the furniture. The base (6) of the main body (1) has a threaded vertical drill near its center (4) by the one that passes the vertical regulating screw (7), which runs through it partially inside.

The main body (1) has a slot vertical (8) on one of its side faces that faces the front of the furniture, to accommodate an elastic clip clip to which you can screw a panel skirting board that closes the front of the furniture, under the lower horizontal table (15).

The telescopic arm (19) is formed by a support base (11) and an externally threaded cylinder called regulating screw (7), which adjusts on the main body (1) and through which you can slide vertically and, through regulation of its length by rotation, allows the leveling of the furniture.

The length of the telescopic arm (19) is comfortably regulates from above and inside the furniture, without need to duck under, by means of a tool tighten (9) by axial action (such as an Allen key or a screwdriver) that goes through both holes made in both the lower horizontal table (15) of the furniture as in the hardware of union (17) of said horizontal table (15) with the vertical upright lateral (3), in the vertical axis of the telescopic arm (19) and acts on the upper end (12) of the regulating screw (7) that  adapt an appropriate way to receive the turning moment such like some kind of mortise or relief, whether linear, cross, crenellated, square, hexagonal or other prismatic shape or, in general Any other tightening system.

The telescopic arm (19) rests on its lower end, on a support piece, the support base (11) which consists of a flared metal disk.
