Definitions

• the abovementioned supports of the prior art comprise a moveable engagement element connected to the relative plate for fixing the support itself onto the wall.
• An example of a support of the afore- indicated type is described in the Italian patent application IT2002MI002147 also indicate in which are the means commonly used for adjusting the position, with respect to the relative plate, of the abovementioned moveable engagement .
• Such devices known today are functional, considering the current tendency to reduce the thicknesses of the panels making up the suspended pieces of furniture, it disadvantageousIy occurs that such coupling is not always efficient and durable and given that the stability itself of the suspended piece of furniture is based on such constraint, unwanted falls, and/or - worse - breakages often occur.
• a general object of the present invention is that overcoming the abovementioned drawbacks of the prior art in an extremely simple, inexpensive and particularly functional manner.
• Another object is that of providing a hidden and adjustable support for the wall mounting of a suspended furniture piece capable of guaranteeing an easy and stable mounting on any type of suspended piece of furniture .
• figure 3 is a sectional view of the support of figure 2 along line III- III;
• Such support 10 is of the adjustable type and adapted to be mounted at the rear part, in a concealed position, on a suspended piece of furniture 30.
• the abovementioned support 10 comprises a plate element 11 which is provided with a plurality of fixing pins 12, 12', 12", which extend outwards from one side of the plate element li itself, and an engagement element 14 coupled at the front to the same plate element 11 to join the support 10 itself with a wall mounted support member .
• the abovementioned plurality of fixing pins 12, 12' , 12" is couplable in holes made on a shoulder 31 of the suspended piece of furniture 30 while, for example, the wall mounted support member on which the support 10 is joined can be a common bar.
• the plate element 11 comprises an upper and lower portion which respectively extend above and below the engagement element 14 and the fixing pins 12, 12', 12", wherein at least one of these abovementioned upper and lower portions is provided with at least one hole 20, 20', 20" for screw coupling 40 the plate element 11 itself with the relative suspended piece of furniture 30.
• the abovementioned lower portion comprises a first wall 19 which extends laterally outwards of the plate element 11 on the same side from which the fixing pins 12, 12', 12" project.
• such first wall 19 has a flat development outwards being inclined - with respect to the relative plate element 11 with which it can also be connected - by about 135°.
• such first wall 19 is provided with at least one through hole 20 for screw-coupling 40 with the shoulder 31 of the suspended piece of furniture 30, inserted into which are also the fixing pins 12, 12', 12".
• Such at least one orthogonal through hole 20" may be of the type for screw coupling 40 the plate element 11 with a cap 32 of the suspended piece of furniture 30 in case, as shown in figures 8 and 9, the suspended piece of furniture has an upper panel 32 flushed with the bottom panel 33.
• the support 10 can be mounted at the rear part of the upper panel 32 being joined therewith by- means of a screw 40 inserted horizontally into the through hole 20" .
• the abovementioned upper portion can advantageously comprise a second wall 18 extending at the upper part from the plate element 11 outwards with an inclination of about 135° with respect to the plate element 11 itself.
• such second wall 18 is provided with at least one through hole 20' which, just like the relative second wall 18 from which it is obtained, has an inclination of about 135° with respect to the plate element 11.
• Such at least one through hole 20' can be of the type for screw coupling 40 the plate element 11 with a cap 32 of the suspended piece of furniture 30 in cases where, as shown in figures 5 and 6, the suspended piece of furniture has an upper panel 32 flushed with the shoulders 31.
• the support 10 cannot be mounted below the upper panel 32.
• the screw coupling 40 of the same with the upper panel 32 of the suspended piece of furniture 30 - due to the first wall 18 provided with a through hole 20' inclined in the previously described manner - can be provided for in a particularly stable manner also by using very long screws.
• the screw 40 is inserted inwards the upper panel 32 of the piece of furniture 30 in an oblique direction.
• the screw 40 can advantageously also be longer than the thickness of the upper panel 32 itself into which it is inserted.
• the support 10 according to the present invention comprises both the first 19 and the second 18 wall with the relative holes 20, 20' and 20" it is couplable in an extremely stable manner both to suspended pieces of furniture having an upper panel 32 flushed with the shoulders 31, using the holes 20 and 20' as shown in figures 5-7, and with. suspended pieces of furniture having an upper panel 32 flushed with the rear panel 33, using the holes 20 and
• the first wall 19 of the lower portion of the plate element 11 may comprise a first external peripheral portion inclined by about 90° with respect to the plate element 11 and connected at about 135° with respect to the first wall
• such first peripheral portion serves for lateral support of said support 10 with the shoulder 31 of the suspended piece of furniture 30 facilitating the assembly step and further enhancing the stability of the assembly.
• the vertical movement means 17 of the engagement element 14, schematically shown in figure 3 as a screw- female screw mechanism provided with an angular transmission, can be ar-ranged below the plurality of fixing pins 12, 12', 12" further facilitating access to such mechanism and the relative vertical adjustment manoeuvre of the engagement element 14.
