Definitions

  • the invention relates to a modular structure for furniture or complementary furniture in which at least one boxed compartment encases a household electric appliance, movable on sliding or rotating means for transferring it in several positions suitable to the operative use, or to the supplying and/or the maintenance thereof, jointly to the detaching thereof from the boxed compartment in order to completely remove it therefrom.
  • the present invention was advantageously, yet not exclusively, developed for a household espresso coffee brewing electric appliance (coffee maker) .
  • the invention solves a relevant architectural and industrial problem; with at least one boxed compartment, furniture or complementary furniture modules of high functionality and pleasant aesthetic aspect are implemented.
  • the field of furniture or of complementary furniture modules has been aimed at implementing modular structures, allowing an industrial manufacturing adaptable to the custom needs and demands .
  • modular structures have since long become popular. Such structures show two important features: they are sectional and modular. Sectional means that they may be transported disassembled, assembled on the site of use and disassembled again when not needed anymore, so as to save space. Modular means that other components, advantageously assembled in order to meet novel demands, may be added thereto.
  • the state of the art of modular structures comprises built-in household electric appliances inserted inside of the furniture component modules, in particular of modular kitchens.
  • espresso coffee makers apt to be associated to the inside of a related sectional kitchen module, or of an office furniture module, by screws or like fastening means which often compromise the pleasant aesthetic aspect and the overall design thereof, have been known for quite some time.
  • the invention solves said technical problem adopting built-in household electric appliances and/or devices which be easy and rapid to assemble and/or disassemble from the related boxed compartments and which allow to carry out the various ordinary and extraordinary maintenance operations and/or optional supplying operations in an extremely easy way and with no need to totally disassociate the former from said boxed spaces or to remove any fastening member.
  • the household electric appliances according to the present invention are provided onto the top or lateral side surfaces thereof with one or more openings enabling the operator to access internal functional members or devices in their positions extracted from the boxed compartments, facilitating the carrying out of the ordinary maintenance and/or of various supplying operations .

  • said household electric appliances encased inside of the boxed compartments of the modular furniture, are provided rearwise and/or sideways with socket means and/or members for the rapid coupling thereof to a power supply, and, optionally, to the water system.
  • the advantages attained by the present invention are: elimination of the rigidity of the compositions of the furniture structures, and sensible reduction of the related costs; greater accessibility of the boxed spaces; effect of a greater available volume and an improved positional arrangement of the household appliances, preferably espresso coffee brewing appliances; adoption of slenderer and remarkably less bulky modular furniture, like the posts; complementarity or replacement of household electric appliances advantageously standardised in the dimensions thereof; greater freedom of distribution of the boxed compartments inside of the modular structure for furniture; wider variety of aesthetically and functionally viable shapes .
  • the modular structure of the applicant consists of parallelepipedic boxed compartments, associable at will to the various household electric appliances and independent therefrom.
  • the innovative advantage of this modular structure, tested for a long time by the applicant, is that the user, due to lack of space or to a mere convenience of orderly application, may resolve the modular furniture structure in several parts and vary at will the furniture, or prearrange the household electric appliances into the modular boxed spaces for the best practical use thereof.
  • the present invention promotes and actuates several improvements to the known art from which it derives and which it sensibly innovates, solving yet unsolved technical limitations in the field of the application and of the use of the household electric appliances, in particular the use of espresso coffee makers, in a modular structure for furniture.

  • Said household electric appliance is movable on linear sliding means or onto rotating means for transferring and moving it in several positions; from a position of operative use, which is facilitated by a lying plane generated by a front notch, to a supplying and/or maintenance position by means of a sliding or of a rotation to place it in a position extracted from the boxed compartment and in at least another position in which it is completely separated therefrom in order to advantageously remove it from the modular structure.
  • Said extracted positions are stabilised with known locking members .
  • the sliding means are linear and/or telescopic guides
  • the rotating means are hinges and/or pins with related known bushes and said rotating means are positioned with vertical and horizontal, preferably vertical, rotation axes.
  • the linear and/or the telescopic guide sliding means are anchored topwise, or bottomwise and/or at the sides of the boxed compartment which encases the household electric appliance rendered advantageously movable by said sliding means.
  • the modular structure for furniture comprises one or more boxed compartments encasing household electric appliances in sight, or foldaway with a front wing, or collapsible, or with a vertically or horizontally sliding gate.
  • the boxed compartments encasing household electric appliances are overlappable, or adjacent, in a row, along the sectional walls of the modular structure for furniture.
  • the modular structure for furniture has bearing shelves which are slidable and extractable above or below the household electric appliance which advantageously lies in an operative use condition in order to facilitate the several requested uses.
