Definitions
- the invention relates to a furniture system for arrangement against a sloping wall and comprising a number of sections designed as shelves, chests of drawers, cupboards etc and" separated or limited by vertical partitions at right angles to the sloping wall.
- each par ⁇ tition comprises a number of juxtaposed vertical plate members of different height and each having an obli ⁇ quely cut upper edge, said plate members being provided on or at their adjoining edge faces with connecting means allowing a stepwise displacement of neighbouring plate members in the height direction relative to one another.
- the individual sections in a system having a number of juxtaposed elements may be formed with different depth, in consideration for example of the desired internal height, since the depth may be varied stepwise in accordance with the width of the plate members, and back walls for the individual furniture elements may be arranged against the rear edges of the limiting partitions, whether these are constructed from one or more plate members.
- connecting means between the plate members in a partition any kind of conventional connecting means of the kind used for the assembling of plate members in extension of each other may be employed.
- the connecting means are designed so that one of two adjoining edge faces on neighbouring plate members is provided with a number of dowels for each of which at least two holes are pro- vided at the other edge face, said holes being displaced in the height direction.
- the connecting means may advantageously be designed for displacement in the height direction in steps equal to the distance between neighbouring holes in the rows of holes or a multiplum thereof.
- OMH plate members the upper edges of which are obliquely cut with an equal inclination, the highest plate member being incorporated in all partitions, the front edge of each succeeding plate member having the same height as the rear edge of the preceding plate member. Due to the fact that as a result of varying inclination of sloping walls the obliquely cut upper edges of the plate members in the partitions will not engage the sloping wall in heir entire length it is preferred, particularly for partitions which are visible from the outside, such as in case of window niches, that the upper end of the plate members in one or more partitions are covered by a covering strip lying against the sloping wall.
- the mutual displacement in the height direction between the plate members of a partition may result in a height difference between the lower edges of the plate members.
- This height difference may be eliminated by sawing away a corresponding part of the lower edge of a plate member, but in order to avoid such a sawing operation the build-up may according to a further deve ⁇ lopment of the invention be accomplished in that the lower ends of the plate members are inserted into a floor strip of U-shaped cross-section, said floor strip being provided with means for equalizing height dif ⁇ ferences between the lower edges of the plate members.
- FIG. 1 is, a perspective view of an example of a furniture system according to the invention in a room with a sloping wall
- Figs. 2-4 show an embodiment of a partition in the furniture system and the associated plate members as well as the connecting means between them
- Fig . 5 shows the build-up of a partition with plate members mutually displaced in the height direc ⁇ tion.
- Fig.- 6 shows a modification of the build-up in Fig. 5 .
- FIG. 1 shows an example of a furniture system according to the invention arranged against a sloping wall 1, in which a window niche 2 is formed and a ver ⁇ tical inner wall 3 adjoining the sloping wall 1.
- the furniture system comprises two substantially identical shelves sections 4 and 5 and a double cupboard 6.
- the sections 4, 5 and 6 are separated or limited by vertical partitions 7 at right angles to the sloping wall 1 and the inner wall 3, said partitions being designed for example as explained in the following with reference to Fig. 2-4.
- each partition 7 may comprise a number of juxtaposed vertical plate members 8, 9 and 10 having different height and obliquely cut upper edges, said plate members 8, 9 and 10 being pro ⁇ vided on or at their adjoining edge faces with, con ⁇ necting means allowing stepwise displacement in the height direction of neighbouring plate members relative to one another.
- these connecting means are designed as shown in Fig. 3, so that one of the two adjoining edge faces, 11 and 12 respectively on neighbouring plate members 8 and 9 respectively is formed with a number of dowels 13, in this case three, whereas the other edge face 12 for each of the dowels 13 has three holes 14 displaced in the height direction.
- a partition 7 ' built up of such plate members 8', 9' and 10' may as shown in Fig. 5 be adapted to a smaller inclination of the sloping wall 1' than 45°.
- the obliquely cut upper edges of the plate members 8'-10' will not engage the sloping wall 1' in their entire length and, therefore, the plate members 8 '-10' are covered at their upper ends by a covering strip 15 engaging the sloping wall 1' and hiding the jumps in the height direction.
- all the partitions are composed from a series of three plate members, the upper edges of which are obliquely cut under the same angle, the highest plate member 8 being incorporated in all the partitions and the front edge of each suc ⁇ ceeding plate member 9 and 10 having the same height as the rear edge of the preceding plate member.
- the connecting means for the plate members in this case the dowels 13 and the holes 14, are designed as most clearly seen in the partial view in Fig. 4 for height displacement in steps equal to the distance bet- ween neighbouring " holes in the rows of holes 16. Thereby a height displacement will not result in any change with respect to accurate positioning of the holes in the individual rows of holes 16 relative to one another.
- Fig. 6 shows a modification of the build-up shown in Fig.
- the floor strip 17 is provided with means for equalizing height differences between the lower edges of the plate members.
- Such means may comprise inserts, for example, to be arranged against the bottom of the U-shape cross-section of the strip, but in the embodiment shown, in which the plate members in the same way as in Figs.
- the means for equalizing height dif ⁇ ferences comprise a hole 18 in the floor strip 17 oppo- site each row of holes 16' in the plate members intro ⁇ cuted into the floor strip 17.
- O PI dual plate members are secured relative to the floor strip by means of a pin not shown for introduction into the hole 18 and a hole in the opposed row of holes 16' .
- the floor list 17 may in a manner known per se be provided with adjustable feet 19.
- Figs. 7 and 8 show two different examples of the arrangement of a back wall to obtain a varying depth of the individual sections of the system.
- a rear edge supporting strip mounted on one of the plate members of a partition is used as support for the back wall.
- the rear edge sup ⁇ porting strip 23 is designed for arrangement against the side face of a plate member with means for connec ⁇ tion with the holes in the row of holes 22, for example to be introduced in said holes or corresponding holes in which case the rear edge supporting strip is secured to the plate member by the introduction of loose, adapted pins in corresponding holes in the strip 23 and the row of holes in the plate member, respectively.
- FIG. 8 shows a rear edge supporting strip 24 designed for direct, arrangement on the rear edge of the rearmost plate member 25 of a partition and being addi ⁇ tionally designed in this example as a double strip for the support of back walls for two neighbouring sec- tions.
- the rear edge supporting strip of T-shaped cross-section is provided with connecting means for engagement with the connecting means on the rear edge of the plate member normally serving for the connection of plate members with one another.
- the strip 25 may be provided for example with holes or dowels for engagement with corresponding dowels or holes on the rear edge of the plate member such as shown in Figs. 3 and 4.
- Figs. 9-12 show a furnishing example for the furniture system according to the invention with a number of cupbpards and shelves sections 26-33 arranged with the front faces extending in common plane, but with varying depth of the individual sections such as clearly shown in the horizontal sectional view in Fig. 11.
- Figs. 9 and 10 show the furniture system seen from the front with and without cupboard doors respectively whereas Fig. 11 is a sectional view along the line A-A in Fig. 9 and Fig. 12 shows a number of vertical sec ⁇ tional views illustrating clearly the varying depth of the individual sections.
