Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to a slide assembly for use with a door of a furniture piece and, more particularly, to a spacer for setting off the door to permit the door to be both hingibly and slidably mounted to the furniture piece.
  • Some furniture pieces for use in the office and home have doors for closing open fronts.
  • these doors are hinged at one side that is adjacent to the sidewall of the furniture piece and swing towards the front in an open position.
  • Very often the hinge arrangement provides an open door that extends well beyond the furniture piece. Consequently, to eliminate the problem of the open door getting in the way when space may be limited, furniture pieces today are designed with pocket door assemblies.
  • the pocket door assembly permits the doors to be slid out and closed. When in the open position the doors are slid back within the recess of the furniture piece opening thereby reducing space requirements for the furniture piece.
  • An example of a furniture piece is an entertainment center. Such centers have been getting larger with the advent of television sets that in recent years have been getting much bigger.
  • entertainment centers may accommodate VCR, CD, DVD players, stereo receivers, speakers and other electronic equipment that is generally found in an entertainment center.
  • the sliding pocket door has application, as well, in cabinets of all types, such as armoires, kitchen cabinets and other furniture items for use both in the office and home environment. These furniture pieces are generally finished furniture pieces with paint or varnished finishes.
  • a cabinet with pocket doors in an assembly comprising a vertical carrier hingibly connecting a door and slidably mounted to upper and lower rails mounted to the cabinet sidewalls. After the door has been placed in the open position, it can be easily moved rearward with the carrier in the cabinet.
  • Another mechanism is a scissors mechanism mounted between the cabinet back wall and the rear edge of the door.
  • Yet another mechanism includes tracks mounted to the cabinet sidewalk A pair of pulleys is mounted below the rear portion of the upper track and above the front portion of the lower track. A cable is threaded around the pulleys with first and second ends attached to the door.
  • Wood spacer blocks and u-shaped metal brackets have been mounted to provide sufficient space for the hinge to allow the door to clear the molding as the doors are extended from the cabinet. Some kind of spacer is generally required in order to permit sufficient clearance for the door to slide beyond the molding so that it may properly be closed.
  • a common problem associated with wood spacer blocks is finishing. Prior to installation, wooden spacer blocks should be finished in a manner that matches the finishes of the furniture piece. Thus, not only is the manufacture of the wooden spacer blocks time consuming, so is the finishing.
  • u-shaped metal brackets can create finger-sized openings. Adults may get their finger caught in these finger-sized openings. Although children may not get their finger caught, these finger-sized openings may make excellent climbing grips. Unfortunately, a child's weight can either cause the door the come off or overturn a furniture piece. In the first case, the resulting fall and the weight of the door may severely injure the child. In the second case, the weight of furniture piece may severely injure the child. Thus, there remains a need for a new and improved slide assembly for use with a door of a furniture piece which is sufficiently strong, regardless of door weight, while at the same time safe.
  • the present invention is directed to a slide assembly for use with a door of a furniture piece.
  • the slide assembly includes a pair of slides, an alignment element and a spacer that preferably is a spacer block.
  • the pair of slides is for slidably mounting the door to the furniture piece.
  • the alignment element is for aligning the movement of the pair of slides.
  • the spacer which preferably is a spacer block, is for setting off the door to permit the door to be both hingibly and slidably mounted to the furniture piece.
  • the furniture piece may be any one of fixed and movable.
  • furniture pieces include a case good for providing interior storage space such as any one of a bookcase and a chest of drawers.
  • fixed furniture pieces include a cabinet such as a kitchen cabinet.
  • Other examples of furniture pieces include an armoire and an entertainment unit.
  • the furniture piece may further include any one of framing and pilaster at an opening at which the door is both hingibly and slidably mounted.

  • a slide is a roller type slide.
  • a ball bearing type slide is another example of such a slide.
  • a ball bearing type slide may include about 2 to 4 ball bearings per inch, preferably about 3 ball bearings per inch.
