Abstract

A furniture panel-type connector comprising a male fitting (100) and a female fitting (200). The female fitting (200) is provided with a bottom part (201) and a connecting part (202) protruding from one side of the bottom part (201). A threaded hole (203) is inwardly arranged on the connecting part (202). The male fitting (100) comprises a male fitting body (101) and a connecting rod (103). The male fitting body (101) comprises a matching face (102) matchingly connected to the female fitting (200). The matching face (102) is a flat structure. The connecting rod (103) is protrudingly formed on the matching face (102). A threaded part (104) matching the threaded hole (203) of the female fitting (200) is arranged on the exterior wall of the connecting rod (103). A lateral face of the male fitting body (101) is protrudingly formed along two symmetrical lateral faces of the matching face (102). A blocking part (105a) is formed between the matching face (102) and the lateral face of the male fitting body (101). When the male fitting (100) is mounted into a corresponding mounting hole on a furniture panel, the blocking part (105a) is blocked by the mounting hole of the furniture panel from rotating within the mounting hole and from dropping off easily. This allows for secure connection between furniture panels. Also, when connecting, as furniture panels are connected by rotating and tightening the male fitting into the female fitting, easy and convenient operation is allowed, and great firmness and convenient operation are satisfied simultaneously.

Design can be.

Referring to FIG. 7 and FIG. 8 , the first embodiment of the panel furniture connector of the present invention is taken as an example, and the manner for connecting the furniture panel is described. The preset connection portion on the furniture panel 400 is pre-opened for The mounting hole 401 of the male snap 100 is formed in a shape corresponding to the shape of the male snap body 101. A through hole 501 is defined in the furniture panel 500 for mounting the female snap 200. The through hole 501 is stepped, and the male snap 100 After being installed in the mounting hole 401 of the furniture panel 400, the mating surface 102 is flush with the side surface of the furniture panel 400, the connecting rod 103 extends out of the furniture panel 400, and the male button body 101 is engaged in the mounting hole 401. Moreover, the four-contact portion 107 extending from the upper surface thereof is in contact with the upper surface of the furniture panel 400, and the blocking portion 107 of the male snap 100 is in contact with the inner wall of the mounting hole 401, and does not slide out from the side, and is more secure. The existing male buckle is higher, and the inverted teeth 106 of the side of the male buckle body 101 are engaged with the furniture panel 400 to further strengthen the connection stability. The connecting rod 103 of the assembled male buckle 100 extends into the furniture panel 500. Inside the through hole 501 Waiting for the connection with the female snap 200; then, the knob 300 is mounted on the female snap 200, that is, the two first linkage shafts 302a, 302b of the knob 300 are correspondingly inserted into the mounting holes 204a, 204b of the bottom 201 of the female snap 200, The female snaps 200 are inserted into the through holes 501 from the other side of the furniture panel 500, and the female snaps 200 are rotated synchronously by rotating the knob 300 to connect the female snaps 200 with the male snaps 100. The connection between the furniture panels 400 and 500 is realized. After the installation is completed, the female buckle 200 touches the step in the through hole 501, and the bottom 201 is flush with the surface of the furniture panel 500, so that the connection is firm and beautiful.

The manner in which the panel furniture connector of the second embodiment of the present invention is coupled to the furniture panel is the same as that of the above embodiment, which is well known to those skilled in the art and will not be described herein.

Since the panel furniture connector of the present invention includes a male snap 100 and a female snap 200 that are coupled to each other, the female snap 200 has a bottom portion 201 and a connecting portion 202 projecting from one side of the bottom portion 201, and the connecting portion 202 is vertically inwardly provided with a vertical portion In the threaded hole 203 of the bottom portion 201, the male buckle 100 includes a male buckle body 101 and a connecting rod 103. The male button body 101 has a mating surface 102 that is coupled to the female snap 200. The mating surface 102 has a flat structure. The connecting rod 103 is formed to protrude outwardly from the mating surface 102. The outer wall of the connecting rod 103 is disposed with the female snap 200. The threaded portion 203 of the threaded hole 203 is formed to protrude from the mutually symmetric side surfaces of the mating surface 102 to form a side surface of the male button body 101. The mating surface 102 and the side surface of the male button body 101 form a blocking portion 105a, 105b. When the male buckle 100 is loaded into the corresponding mounting hole on the furniture panel, the blocking portions 105a, 105b are blocked by the inner wall of the mounting hole of the furniture panel, cannot slide in the mounting hole, and will not fall, thereby realizing the furniture panel. The connection between the male buckle 100 and the female buckle 200 is achieved when the connection is made, and the connection between the furniture panels is realized, and the operation cylinder is used, and the high firmness and the simple operation are satisfied at the same time.

The panel furniture connector of the present invention is not limited to the connection of the furniture panel, but can also be used for the connection of similar other panel items according to actual needs.

The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto, and the equivalent changes made by the scope of the present invention remain within the scope of the present invention.
