Embodiment Construction

[0014] a furniture shown in figure 1 , which consists of many slats connected in such a way that it can be assembled into different types of furniture. exist figure 1 In the arrangement shown, particularly suitable as a sun lounger, the actual angular deflection between the slats can be adjusted to provide different functions or personal taste.

[0015] The whole furniture can be considered to be composed of five connected plates 101, 102, 103, 104 and 105. Each plate is made up of a number of slats which are connected in an interdigitated finger pattern with similar slats which cooperate with each other. Therefore, if figure 1 As shown, panel 101 includes slats 106-111. Similarly, slab 102 includes a first slat 112 together with six similar slats so that the top ends of the slats forming slab 102 are interleaved with the bottoms of the slats 106 to 111 defining slab 101 .

[0016] The connected plates are held together by mandrels 113 with mating bolts 114 .

Abstract

A slat (116) is arranged to co-operate with substantially similar slats (117) for the construction of structures, primarily garden furniture. Each slat defines a substantially C-shaped cross section with a central element (501) and two longitudinal elements (502, 503) attached to the central element. Locking teeth (505) are applied to an external surface (504) of the central element, arranged to radially extend about a connecting hole (506). The connecting hole receives a spindle (507) arranged to securely hold the slats in position. With the spindle loosened, it is possible to re-configure the furniture for different purposes. However, with the spindle held tightly in place, the furniture becomes rigid and suitable for supporting body weight.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a slat which cooperates with a substantially similar slat to form furniture. Background technique [0002] The use of slatted panels to form a piece of furniture is described in British Patent 2 243 543, assigned to the Applicant. The slats can be moved into many positions, allowing the furniture to take many shapes, including chairs, tables and sun loungers. [0003] The problem associated with the known construction is that the manufacture of each slat involves several steps, mainly to ensure that cooperating engagement means in the form of radial teeth are provided on each mating surface. Contents of the invention [0004] According to a first aspect of the present invention there is provided a kind of slats cooperating with similar slats to form furniture, wherein each slat has a C-shaped cross-section comprising a central unit, a first length unit and a second a length unit; characterized in that said central u...
