Description

FURNITURE ARRANGEMENT

The object of the invention is a fixed furniture arrangement according to claim 1. — There are many different furniture solutions for fixed furniture, for example, in residential or commercial apartments. It is typical that, for example, permanently installed kitchen furniture is brought to the apartment as ready-made elements assembled at the factory, at least as far as the furniture frames are concerned. Furniture drawers and doors can only be installed after the furniture frames have been installed. Another state-of-the-art solution is — to manufacture the fixed furniture frames directly at the installation site according to dimensions and install them in place. The fixed furniture can also be assembled from various factory-made modules and assembled as a complete unit at the installation site.

Different installation sites pose several challenges for fixed furniture arrangements. Such are e.g. wall and floor deviations in terms of flatness. Also, the angle between the wall and the floor can be other than the optimal 90 degree angle. The tilting of the wall and floor levels and their changes in the installation site also complicate the installation work.

State-of-the-art solutions use an unnecessary amount of material to manufacture ready-made fixed furniture. The fixed furniture arrangement, which is assembled from ready-made elements assembled at the factory, contains unnecessary double walls between the different modules. Attempts have been made to avoid this by assembling larger multi-module units at the factory,

N but then their transport and installation becomes difficult. At the same time, large entities take

An unnecessary amount of space at the installation site. Installation of finished fixed furniture elements

S 25 — it is difficult to put in place due to the aforementioned defects of the mounting surfaces and = due to the size and weight of the elements. i x The purpose of this invention is to eliminate the problems of the prior art and produce a solution that uses less material and takes up less space at the installation site and is fast and

S 30 — easy to install in place and easily adapts to the "mistakes" of the installation site. At the same time, the solution according to the invention enables the modification of the fixed furniture after the installation phase if desired.

The fixed furniture arrangement according to the invention is characterized by what is defined in the characterizing part of the independent claim. Other advantageous embodiments according to the invention are presented in the subclaims.

The fixed furniture arrangement according to the invention comprises a vertical tie bar between the partition walls of the furniture and the installation surface and on the side of the end walls against the installation wall. The vertical strip can extend to the entire vertical height of the intermediate and/or end side walls of the fixed furniture or only a part of the height of these walls and be made with a single strip or several shorter strips. between the installation wall. The horizontal strip(s) can be extended to the entire width of the fixed furniture arrangement as uniform strips the width of the fixed furniture, or alternatively only to a part of the width of the fixed furniture and as an arrangement consisting of several different parts.

In the following, the invention is explained in more detail with the help of application examples by referring to the accompanying simplified drawings, in which — Figure 1 shows a fixed furniture arrangement that can be installed as an upper kitchen cabinet, Figure 2 shows a fixed furniture arrangement that can be installed as a lower kitchen cabinet, Figure 3 shows a vertical strip and partition of the fixed furniture arrangement from above, and Figure 4 shows a vertical strip from above and the end wall of the fixed furniture arrangement

OF

N 25 — Figure 1 shows an embodiment of the fixed furniture arrangement 1 according to the invention. 2 The fixed furniture arrangement 1 can be installed, for example, as an upper cabinet in the kitchen. > The fixed furniture arrangement 1 comprises a furniture frame 2, which consists of at least a roof plate 3, a base plate 4 and end side walls 5 and, if necessary, one or more

S from the intermediate side wall 6. In addition to these mentioned parts 3, 4, 5 and 6, the fixed furniture arrangement 1 a 30 — comprises vertical ties 7. If desired, a door or

N doors, but it can also be used as an open shelf. Likewise, the fixed furniture arrangement 1 can comprise the desired number of shelves.

The vertical strips 7 are installed between the intermediate side walls 6 and the installation wall and next to the back of the end side walls on the inside of the fixed furniture arrangement 1 against the installation wall. Thus, the sides of the end side walls 5 extend essentially up to the installation wall, and between the sides of the intermediate side walls 6 and the installation wall there is a gap corresponding to the thickness of the vertical tie bar 7. 5 The fixed furniture arrangement 1 is installed on the wall by attaching it to the wall from the vertical ties 7.

Fixing can be done directly through the vertical tie strip 7 or alternatively by using angle brackets or other similar fixing means. If necessary, wedging can be used for the installation of fixed furniture arrangement 1, if the level errors of the wall surface require it. Wedging takes place through the vertical ties 7. Wedging for a solution like the invention is — much easier than wedging elements containing entire back plates according to the state of the art into the correct position.

By using vertical tie strips 7 for fixing the fixed furniture arrangement 1, the fixed furniture arrangement can be produced without a back plate, so that the fixed furniture arrangement remains — at least partially open at the back. In this case, for example, the sockets on the installation wall can be easily used. The end and intermediate side walls 5 and 6 of the fixed furniture arrangement 1 are preferably equipped with the possibility of attaching shelves to the desired heights on the inside of the fixed furniture arrangement. — In state-of-the-art solutions, the upper cabinet is assembled from pre-assembled elements at the factory, resulting in double walls between the cabinets. This causes unnecessary use of material. At the same time, the installation of the elements in relation to each other and to the wall is difficult compared to the installation and adjustment of the fixed furniture arrangement 1 according to the invention

N to the correct position. In particular, wedging the cabinets according to the technical level to the right

N 25 — the position against the installation wall is difficult. <Q ©

Preferably, the bottom and roof plates of the frame of the fixed furniture arrangement 1 according to the invention are i from one piece, but if their length increases so that their processing is

S cumbersome, the base and roof plates 4 and 3 can be made from several parts. a 30 — Fixed furniture arrangement 1 is manufactured in such a way that its rear wall is at least partially open,

N where the partial back wall is formed by the vertical ties 7, which extend from the end side walls 5 towards the inside of the furniture arrangement and from the intermediate side walls 6, behind them, to both sides of the intermediate side wall. With such a solution, the manufacturing material of fixed furniture arrangement 1 can be saved. If desired, a separate back wall can be advantageously installed attached to the vertical tie strips 7 inside the cabinet, leaving a gap of the — thickness — size of the vertical tie strip between the back wall and the installation wall. — By installing — the rear wall — only after the installation of the fixed furniture arrangement 1, the desired technology (e.g. electrical wiring) can be placed between the rear wall and the installation wall after the installation of the fixed furniture arrangement. In the solution according to the invention, it is not necessary to remove the entire fixed furniture arrangement 1, if changes/maintenance measures are to be made to the technology.

Removing and installing the back wall is easy with little effort.

If necessary = fixed furniture arrangement 1 can also be equipped with horizontal horizontal strips (not shown in Figure 1) in the upper and/or lower part of the fixed furniture arrangement, to which horizontal strips can be attached, for example, lights inside the furniture, etc.

Lighting rails or cable channels can also be installed on the side of the vertical ties 7, so that the installations and wiring are neat, even if there is no separate back plate/back wall — there would be 1 in the fixed furniture arrangement.

The horizontal tie strips can be short tie strips between each vertical tie strip 7 or one uniform horizontal tie strip the length of the entire furniture arrangement. Different solutions in between are also possible. If one uniform horizontal — horizontal tie bar extends behind one or more intermediate side walls 6, the vertical tie bar 7 preferably extends to the lower edge of the horizontal tie bar located at the top. Correspondingly, the vertical strap 7 preferably extends to the upper edge of the horizontal strap in the lower part. However, this is not the only option, a gap can also be left between the horizontal tie strip and the vertical tie strip 7.

N Such gaps allow, for example, the arrangement of fixed furniture for transporting wiring

N 25 1 — behind partition walls 6 from one compartment to another. The wirings = comprising = parts 2 of the fixed furniture arrangement 1 can be €covered if desired and in the necessary parts > of the fixed furniture arrangement — from the inside with back plates/back walls installed on top of the vertical ties 7. These back plates/back walls can only be installed in one or

S to several furniture blocks bounded by vertical walls. 3 30

N Figure 1 shows a uniform vertical tie bar 7, but it is possible to make the vertical tie bar in parts, in which case the vertical tie bar comprises only part of the height of the intermediate and/or end side wall. Likewise, there can be one or more horizontal ties placed at the top, bottom, or somewhere in between of the fixed furniture arrangement 1. Also, these discontinuities of the vertical ties 7 enable, for example, the mentioned wiring to be transported from behind the partition walls 6 of the fixed furniture arrangement 1 from one compartment to another. 5 The embodiment of the fixed furniture arrangement 1 according to Figure 2 is intended, for example, as a lower cabinet in the kitchen. The fixed furniture arrangement 1 comprises a furniture frame 2, which consists of at least a ceiling plate 3, which also functions as a work surface in this embodiment, and end side walls 5 and possibly one or more intermediate side walls 6.

The fixed furniture arrangement 1 is made without a single rear wall, which allows — the sockets and/or other technology on the installation wall to be used without having to cut additional holes in the fixed furniture arrangement. The fixed furniture arrangement 1 is attached to the installation wall — from the vertical ties 7, so that = it is = easy to — adjust the position of the fixed furniture arrangement to the right place despite the shape defects of the installation wall.

The vertical strips 7 can also be installed in this fixed furniture arrangement 1 in correspondingly different variations as in the embodiment according to figure 1. Between the vertical slats 7 and the installation wall, a separately defined empty space can be left as a wedging reserve if the installation wall requires it.

The fixed furniture arrangement 1 in Figure 2 comes ready to include drawers, so — the frame 2 of the fixed furniture arrangement can be manufactured without a base plate. In this case, a significant amount of manufacturing material is saved. — Drawers — are installed — preferably in the fixed furniture arrangement using sliding rails 8. The fixed furniture arrangement 1 is adjusted according to the unevenness of the floor level with the adjustment feet 9 in the fixed furniture arrangement

N to the correct position. Alternatively, the fixed furniture arrangement 1 can also include shelves

N 25 — at least with part of the fixed furniture arrangement. <Q ©

In the same way as the upper cabinets according to Figure 1, the lower cabinets according to Figure 2 can also be equipped with horizontal horizontal strips 10. Figure 2 shows a horizontal strip 10

S at the top of fixed furniture arrangement 1. The horizontal strip 10 of Figure 2 is installed a 30 — against the mounting wall below the frame 2 of the fixed furniture arrangement 1 ceiling plate 3.

N Preferably, the horizontal tie bars 10 are located in the upper and/or lower part of the fixed furniture arrangement 1.

The horizontal tie strips 10 can be short tie strips between each vertical tie strip 7 or one uniform horizontal tie strip the entire length of the furniture. Different solutions in between are also possible. If one uniform horizontal tie strip 10 extends behind one or more intermediate side walls 6, the vertical tie strip 7 preferably extends to the lower edge of the horizontal tie strip located at the top. Correspondingly, the vertical strap 7 preferably extends to the upper edge of the horizontal strap 10 in the lower part. However, this is not the only option, a gap can also be left between the horizontal tie strip 10 and the vertical tie strip 7. Such gaps enable — for example — the transportation of wiring — behind the partition walls 6 of the fixed furniture arrangement 1 from one compartment to another.

Figure 2 shows a unified vertical tie bar 7, but it is possible to make the vertical tie bar in parts, in which case the vertical tie bar comprises only part of the height of the intermediate and/or end side wall. Likewise, there can be one or more horizontal tie bars 10 placed in the upper part, lower part or somewhere in between of the fixed furniture arrangement 1. Also these mentioned discontinuities of the vertical tie strip 7 enable, for example, the transportation of said wiring from behind the partition walls 6 of the fixed furniture arrangement from one compartment to another.

In the case of both fixed furniture arrangements 1, both upper cabinets and lower cabinets, it must be understood that the fixed furniture arrangement can be made without horizontal tie bars 10 or there can be one or more horizontal tie bars and their placement can be freely chosen at the top, bottom of the fixed furniture arrangement or somewhere in between. It is essential that — the fixing and positioning of the fixed furniture arrangement 1 to the installation wall takes place via vertical ties 7 and/or horizontal ties 10 and thanks to the ties the rear wall of the fixed furniture arrangement is at least partially open. The partial back wall is formed only by tie strips 7 and/or 10 or their parts. The structure without a back wall together with the vertical tie bar 7 makes it possible

N if desired for air circulation within the fixed furniture arrangement 1 Due to this structure

N 25 — it is possible to easily install distribution boxes and/or sockets on the installation wall without drilling holes in the 2 back walls. The junction box covers are also not an obstacle to shelf adjustments, because > there is a 7-thick gap between the back edge of the shelf and the wall surface. i Due to air circulation or other reasons, the base plates 4 and roof plates 3 can also be

The front and/or back edges are manufactured in such a way that they do not reach the installation wall and/or a 30 — respectively, the inner surface of the doors of the fixed furniture arrangement 1.

OF

Figure 3 shows the connection of the intermediate side wall 6 and the vertical tie bar 7 of the fixed furniture arrangement 1 according to the invention, viewed from above. The vertical sideboard 7 can be fixed from the direction of the wall with screws to the intermediate side wall 6, or alternatively, some state-of-the-art fastening method between parts 6 and 7 can be used. The fixed furniture arrangement 1 is attached from the vertical tie strip 7, for example, directly to the installation wall 11 with screws.

Figure 4 shows the connection between the end side wall 5 and the vertical tie bar 7 of the fixed furniture arrangement 1 according to the invention, viewed from above. The vertical sideboard 7 can be fixed with screws or, alternatively, some state-of-the-art fastening method can be used between parts 5 and 7. The fixed furniture arrangement 1 is attached from the vertical tie strip 7, for example, directly to the installation wall 11 with screws.

When the fixed furniture arrangements 1 are made without a rear wall covering the entire background, material costs are saved. In addition, when assembling the fixed furniture arrangement 1 from one frame 2, double walls between the furniture parts are avoided, which again saves a considerable amount of material. When = when = at least during the installation phase — the fixed furniture arrangement 1 does not have a solid rear wall, the fixed furniture arrangement can be more easily wedged into the correct position on the installation wall 11 via the vertical ties 7 and/or the horizontal ties 10 and at the same time the necessary wiring etc. can be easily installed. By leaving gaps in the vertical ties 7, the wiring etc. can be conveniently transported from one compartment of the fixed furniture arrangement 1 to another.

It is clear to a person skilled in the art that the invention is not limited exclusively to the examples presented above, but may vary within the framework of the patent claims presented below.
