Description

SISTEMA PLEGABLE PARA CONSTRUCCIÓN DE MOBILIARIO  FOLDING SYSTEM FOR CONSTRUCTION OF FURNITURE
Campo de la Invención Field of the Invention
La presente invención se refiere en general a un sistema plegable para construcción de mobiliario y más particularmente a un novedoso sistema de ensamble giratorio para diseño y fabricación de muebles y estructuras plegables, adaptable a superficies sólidas. The present invention relates in general to a folding system for furniture construction and more particularly to a novel rotating assembly system for design and manufacture of furniture and folding structures, adaptable to solid surfaces.
Antecedentes de la Invención Background of the Invention
Desde el surgimiento de ' la civilización, el tamaño de los espacios habitables en construcciones de todo tipo se volvió un punto critico limitante del tipo y dimensiones del mobiliario con el cual se acondicionan las áreas destinadas a diversas funciones como son el comedor, la estancia, la recamara, etc. Since the emergence of ' civilization, the size of living spaces in constructions of all kinds became a critical point limiting the type and dimensions of furniture with which the areas for various functions such as the dining room, the room, the bedroom, etc.
En vista de ello, a lo largo de la historia de la humanidad se han realizado múltiples intentos de diseño de estructuras que permitan adaptarse a las dimensiones de los espacios habitables. Inicialmente las estructuras de mobiliarios eran rígidas y por lo tanto su ubicación estaba supeditada a aquellas áreas de las habitaciones donde las dimensiones interiores lo permitieran. Con el paso del tiempo se crearon sistemas modulares que constaban de cierto número de piezas que se ensamblan entre sí mediante medios adecuados como son tornillos, clavos, pegamento, etc. Sin embargo su única ventaja era el poder ingresar a habitaciones donde los marcos de puertas y ventanas no permitieran el ingreso de mobiliarios completos; y una vez armados no era posible su desensamble. In view of this, throughout the history of mankind multiple attempts have been made to design structures that allow adapting to the dimensions of living spaces. Initially the furniture structures were rigid and therefore their location was subject to those areas of the rooms where the interior dimensions allowed. Over time, modular systems were created that consisted of a number of parts that are assembled together using suitable means such as screws, nails, glue, etc. However, its only advantage was to be able to enter rooms where the door and window frames did not allow the entry of complete furniture; and once armed its disassembly was not possible.
Posteriormente surgieron sistemas de mobiliario plegable, los cuales tienen como característica principal el ocupar un espacio mínimo cuando se encuentra completamente retraídos, dichos sistemas están conformados por una serie de superficies, marcos o puntos de fulcro, que les permiten plegarse sobre ejes preestablecidos. Al hacer esto la superficie total que ocupan estos mobiliarios se ve drásticamente reducida, permitiendo de esta manera su fácil transportación o almacenamiento, lo cual repercute en un mejor uso de los espacios habitables, ya que cuando no se encuentran en uso estos mobiliarios plegables, se pueden almacenar en otras ubicaciones, sin entorpecer el libre flujo de ocupantes y artículos dentro del espacio habitable al cual están destinados. Subsequently, folding furniture systems emerged, which have the main characteristic of occupying a minimum space when fully retracted, these systems are made up of a series of surfaces, frames or fulcrum points, which allow them to fold over pre-established axes. By doing this, the total area occupied by these furniture is drastically reduced, thus allowing its easy transportation or storage, which results in a better use of living spaces, since when these folding furniture is not in use, They can be stored in other locations, without obstructing the free flow of occupants and items within the living space to which they are intended.
Ejemplos de este tipo de dispositivos se encuentran descritos en la Patente US7337728 (B2), que da a conocer un sistema de mesa plegable que consta de un superficie superior sustancialmente plana dividida en dos partes, unida a una serie de miembros plegables constituidos por dos piezas unidas entre sí mediante bisagras que les permiten rotar sobre un punto de fulcro; sin embargo el sistema descrito tiene como desventaja el necesitar de tijeras tirantes para estabilizar la apertura de las patas, por ello la estabilidad del sistema se ve comprometida frente a cargas grandes, por lo que en el mejor, de los casos dicho sistema solo es útil para soportar objetos pequeños sobre el mismo. Por otro lado en la Patente US4046084 (A) se describe un mueble plegable de tipo taburete que consta de 5 piezas en total, estando conformadas las patas de soporte como piezas que rotan con respecto a un eje, dicho sistema está diseñado para soportar pesos grandes, sin embargo las patas y superficies de éste no se mantiene en su lugar a menos que se coloque una serie de tornillos y bandas de sujeción, por lo que su ensamble se vuelve complicado; además es importante hacer notar que la superficie horizontal está compuesta, por dos placas por lo que su rigidez se ve comprometida. Examples of such devices are described in US7337728 (B2), which discloses a folding table system consisting of a substantially flat upper surface divided into two parts, joined to a series of folding members consisting of two pieces. joined together by hinges that allow them to rotate on a fulcrum point; However, the described system has the disadvantage of needing a scissors to stabilize the opening of the legs, therefore the stability of the system is compromised against large loads, so that at best, such a system is only useful for supporting small objects on it. On the other hand, US4046084 (A) describes a folding stool type furniture that consists of 5 pieces in total, the support legs being formed as rotating parts with respect to an axis, said system is designed to support large weights However, the legs and surfaces of the latter are not held in place unless a series of screws and fastening strips are placed, so that their assembly becomes complicated; It is also important to note that the horizontal surface is composed of two plates so its rigidity is compromised.
La solicitud de patente US2006150870 (Al) describe un sistema de bastidor en forma de "X" para soportar una superficie rígida, en este caso una mesa, que tiene como característica principal estar constituido por dos elementos centrales que se unen entre sí de manera pivotante, por lo que el ángulo- de apertura puede ser variado; sin embargo, no se describe de qué manera se mantiene dicho ángulo, y al parecer son necesarios elementos de fijación adheridos mediante tornillos o algún medio apropiado a la superficie rígida. Patent application US2006150870 (Al) describes an "X" shaped frame system to support a rigid surface, in this case a table, whose main feature is to be constituted by two central elements that are pivotally joined together. , so that the opening angle can be varied; however, it is not described how this angle is maintained, and it seems that fasteners adhered by screws or some appropriate means to the rigid surface are necessary.
Sumario de la Invención En' vista de la problemática y deficiencias antes citadas, es necesario un sistema de soporte plegable que además de proporcionar una estructura rígida y segura, esté constituido por pocas piezas y permita el plegamiento total del mismo. Summary of the Invention In 'view of the problems and shortcomings before cited, it is necessary a folding support system that in addition to providing a rigid and secure structure, is made up of few pieces and allows the total folding thereof.
Un objetivo particular de la presente invención es proporcionar un sistema plegable para construcción de mobiliario que está formado por el acoplamiento de cuatro superficies, dos de las cuales presentan un corte angulado que define un tope de giro. A particular objective of the present invention is to provide a folding system for furniture construction that is formed by the coupling of four surfaces, two of which have an angled cut that defines a turning stop.
Otro objetivo de la presente invención es proporcionar un sistema de ensamble giratorio para diseño y fabricación de muebles y estructuras plegables adaptable a superficies sólidas. Another objective of the present invention is to provide a rotating assembly system for design and manufacture of furniture and folding structures adaptable to solid surfaces.
