Description

Nudo para la formación de muebles.Knot for the formation of furniture.

Object of the invention

La presente memoria descriptiva se refiere a un Modelo de Utilidad correspondiente a un nudo para la formación de muebles, cuyo objeto es la fijación de diferentes perfiles huecos de aluminio o similar, que confluyen en el mismo por ambos sentidos de cualquiera de las tres dimensiones posibles, y que determinan una estructura reticular para dicho mueble.The present specification refers to a Utility Model corresponding to a node for the formation of furniture, whose purpose is the fixing of different hollow profiles of aluminum or similar, which converge in it both ways of any of the three possible dimensions, and that determine a reticular structure for said furniture.

De esta forma, el nuevo nudo para la formación de muebles ofrece la posibilidad de unión de los mencionados perfiles, en cualquiera de las seis caras conformantes de su estructura prismática, en orden a configurar los montantes, largueros y travesaños constituyentes del mueble, consiguiendo dotarlo de una estructura compacta, estable y fuerte, además de ser fácil de montar y desmontar.In this way, the new node for the formation of furniture offers the possibility of joining the aforementioned profiles, in any of the six conforming faces of its structure prismatic, in order to configure the uprights, stringers and constituent crossbars of the furniture, providing it with a compact, stable and strong structure, besides being easy to assemble and disassemble.

Background of the invention

Como referencia al estado de la técnica, debe mencionarse que es sobradamente conocida la utilización de nudos en la formación de muebles y estructuras, que sirven de elemento de unión de los perfiles que concurren en un punto de intersección, sin embargo, dichos nudos, generalmente están diseñados especialmente para cada mueble en concreto.As a reference to the state of the art, you should mention that the use of knots in the formation of furniture and structures, which serve as an element of union of the profiles that concur at an intersection point, However, these knots are generally designed especially for each specific piece of furniture.

Por otra parte, a menudo resultan problemáticos a la hora de inferir la suficiente rigidez estructural al mueble, estando, cuando no, constituidos por complicados dispositivos que requieren de la utilización de herramientas para su montaje y desmontaje.On the other hand, they are often problematic to when inferring sufficient structural rigidity to the furniture, being, when not, constituted by complicated devices that require the use of tools for assembly and disassembly

Otro inconveniente que suelen presentar los nudos existentes actualmente, radica en la limitación de posibilidades de acoplamiento número de perfiles en un mismo nudo, que difícilmente suele pasar de cuatro.Another drawback that knots usually present currently existing, lies in the limitation of possibilities of coupling number of profiles in the same node, which hardly It usually goes from four.

Cabe señalar, que el peticionario del presente modelo de utilidad desconoce la existencia de un nudo para la formación de muebles semejante al que preconiza la presente invención, que tal como se describirá, proporciona un sistema innovador, sencillo y práctico para la función a que se destina.It should be noted that the petitioner of the present utility model is unaware of the existence of a knot for the formation of furniture similar to that advocated by this invention, which as will be described, provides a system innovative, simple and practical for the function it is intended for.

Description of the invention

Con la presente invención, tal como ya se ha mencionado anteriormente, se ha ideado un nudo para la formación de muebles que, permite resolver la problemática anteriormente señalada, ofreciendo una rigidez estructural notable en el acoplamiento de los perfiles que forman el mueble, de manera práctica y fácil, dotándolo así mismo, gracias a su acabado, de un inmejorable aspecto estético.With the present invention, as already mentioned mentioned above, a knot has been devised for the formation of furniture that, allows to solve the problem previously noted, offering a remarkable structural rigidity in the coupling of the profiles that make up the furniture, so Practical and easy, giving it also, thanks to its finish, a unbeatable aesthetic appearance.

De esta forma, el nudo para la formación de muebles está constituido concretamente, por un cuerpo prismático ortoédrico dotado, en cada una de las caras en las que se pretenda acoplar un perfil (obviamente, hasta un máximo de seis), de una perforación apta para admitir en su interior el extremo moleteado de un pasador que a su vez se encuentra recubierto por un elemento de estructura dentada y realizado en un material de tipo elastómero o plástico.In this way, the knot for the formation of furniture is constituted concretely, by a prismatic body gifted orthopedic, on each of the faces on which it is intended couple a profile (obviously, up to a maximum of six), of a perforation suitable for admitting inside the knurled end of a pin that in turn is covered by an element Toothed structure and made of an elastomer type material or plastic

Dicho elemento con el pasador situado en su interior, está destinado a ser introducido en el interior hueco del mencionado perfil conformante de la estructura del mueble, siendo por tanto sus dimensiones acordes con este, es decir, tendrá la longitud suficiente para proporcionar rigidez y robustez a la estructura y la sección, con la tolerancia adecuada, coincidente con la interna del perfil, de modo que gracias a su estructura dentada y el elastómero, que le proporcionan una cierta elasticidad, entrará en el interior del perfil con facilidad sin que pueda deslizarse hacia fuera de forma involuntaria.Said element with the pin located in its interior, is intended to be introduced into the hollow interior of the mentioned profile of the furniture structure, being therefore its dimensions commensurate with this, that is, it will have the sufficient length to provide stiffness and robustness to the structure and section, with the appropriate tolerance, coincident with the internal profile, so that thanks to its toothed structure and the elastomer, which provide a certain elasticity, will enter inside the profile easily without being able to slip out involuntarily.

Cabe señalar, que las dimensiones y forma de las caras del cuerpo prismático, la sección del elemento de estructura dentada y la sección del perfil deberán ser coincidentes, en orden a proporcionar una línea estética óptima al conjunto del mueble, de modo que formen un conjunto homogéneo y compacto.It should be noted that the dimensions and shape of the prismatic body faces, the structure element section Toothed and profile section must be coincident, in order to provide an optimal aesthetic line to the furniture assembly, of so that they form a homogeneous and compact set.

Quedan pues de manifiesto la versatilidad y sencillez de la invención, que con la única combinación de tres elementos básicos, el cuerpo prismático, y los pasadores y elementos de estructura dentada, acoplados adecuadamente a los perfiles conformantes de la estructura del mueble, consigue de forma práctica un nudo que además de proporcionar robustez a la estructura, supone una alternativa innovadora que resuelve el problema de la dificultad de montaje y desmontaje que presentaban hasta ahora este tipo de estructuras.So the versatility and simplicity of the invention, which with the only combination of three basic elements, the prismatic body, and the pins and toothed structure elements, properly coupled to the shaping profiles of the furniture structure, get in shape practice a knot that in addition to providing robustness to the structure, is an innovative alternative that solves the problem of the difficulty of assembly and disassembly that presented So far this kind of structures.

El nudo para la formación de muebles representa, por consiguiente, una estructura innovadora de características estructurales y constitutivas desconocidas hasta ahora para tal fin, razones que unidas a su utilidad práctica, le dotan de fundamento suficiente para obtener el privilegio de exclusividad que se solicita.The knot for the formation of furniture represents, therefore, an innovative structure of features structural and constitutive unknown so far for such end, reasons that together with its practical utility, endow it with sufficient basis to obtain the privilege of exclusivity that is requested.
