Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to an installation method for a customized wardrobe using standardized components, belonging to the field of furniture technology. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, wardrobes commonly found in the furniture market are mainly divided into two types: ready-made wardrobes and custom-made wardrobes.

[0003] Ready-made wardrobes are pre-designed and then mass-produced by manufacturers. Due to their large size, they are generally transported in units of boards and then assembled at the place of use. The advantage of ready-made wardrobes is speed; orders placed on-site can be delivered and installed immediately, which is very practical for homeowners eager to move in. However, the disadvantages of ready-made wardrobes are also obvious: 1. Because there are many boards of varying sizes used in assembling the wardrobe, confusion can easily occur during assembly. Finding the required board is not only time-consuming and laborious but also prone to errors. 2. Low space utilization. To accommodate most apartment layouts, ready-made wardrobes generally cannot perfectly fit the dimensions of a homeowner's apartment, especially at the top, where considerable space is usually left, resulting in wasted space and inconvenience in cleaning.

[0004] Custom-made wardrobes can be designed according to specific apartment layouts, solving the problem of low space utilization. However, they still have the following disadvantages: 1. Slow speed. The general process of customization is that the customer first goes to the store to make an initial selection of the wardrobe style, then a professional comes to the customer's home to take precise measurements. After the customer confirms the wardrobe design, the design drawings are sent to the factory for production. After the wardrobe is produced, it is sent to the store's warehouse, and then an on-site installation is scheduled. The whole process usually takes a month, and if communication is not smooth, it can take more than two months. 2. High cost. Because wardrobes are customized, production and transportation are not done in batches, resulting in higher prices. 3. Difficult to guarantee after-sales service. Due to the accuracy of the measurements taken by the initial measurement personnel, or the varying skill levels of the on-site installation personnel, the installation effect often does not meet expectations. In some cases, situations such as scraping walls to fit the wardrobe size or sawing the wardrobe to fit the wall are common.

[0005] Therefore, in order to meet people's diverse needs when purchasing wardrobes, it is necessary to combine the advantages of ready-made wardrobes and custom wardrobes to design a new type of custom wardrobe built with standardized components. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To address the aforementioned existing technical problems, this invention provides an installation method for a customized wardrobe using standardized components, achieving efficient, simple, flexible, and free customization.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this invention provides an installation method for a customized wardrobe using standardized components. The standardized components include lower, middle, and upper standardized components, and each standardized component has multiple widths. The customized wardrobe comprises lower, middle, and upper cabinet units stacked from bottom to top. The specific installation steps are as follows:

[0008] S1. Based on the apartment layout, the dimensions of the installation location, and the user's needs, select the required components for the lower, middle, and upper cabinet groups from the standardized components for the lower, middle, and upper levels, and determine the width and number of the selected components, as well as the arrangement order of each component in the lower, middle, and upper cabinet groups.

[0009] S2. At the installation location of the custom wardrobe, place the components of the lower cabinet group together in a row; then adjust the width of the lower cabinet group to match the width of the installation location.

[0010] S3. Place the components of the middle cabinet group on top of the lower cabinet group, close together to form one or two rows, so that the top surfaces of each component are on the same horizontal plane; then adjust the width of the middle cabinet group to be equal to the width of the lower cabinet group; then fix the middle cabinet group and the lower cabinet group to each other.

[0011] S4. Place the components of the upper cabinet group on top of the middle cabinet group, close together in a row; then adjust the width of the upper cabinet group to be equal to the width of the middle cabinet group; then fix the middle cabinet group and the upper cabinet group to each other.

[0012] S5. Adjust the height of the upper cabinet unit so that the entire custom wardrobe touches the ceiling and is locked.

[0013] Specifically, in step S1, the lower layer of the custom wardrobe is characterized by its low position and convenient access. The lower layer of the wardrobe is set as a movable storage area. In combination with daily storage habits, the standardized components of the lower layer include movable bottom drawers and lower layer combination adjustable cabinets. The movable bottom drawers include bottom drawer boxes and bottom drawer baskets. The lower layer combination adjustable cabinets include bottom drawer boxes and lower layer open shelves.

[0014] Based on ergonomics, the height of the middle cabinets after stacking is set to 1850mm. Considering the height required for daily hanging of clothes and the most convenient height for retrieval, the middle layer of the wardrobe is set as a hanging area and a comprehensive storage area. The standardized components of the middle layer include storage cabinets, storage drawers, long clothes hanging cabinets, short clothes hanging cabinets, and a middle combination adjustable cabinet. The middle combination adjustable cabinet includes a left open compartment, a middle open compartment, and a right open compartment.

[0015] The upper shelf, being located higher and less convenient to access, is designed as a seasonal storage area to hold lightweight items such as seasonal clothing, bedding, pillows, or other infrequently used items. The standardized components of the upper shelf include a top cabinet and an upper adjustable cabinet; the upper adjustable cabinet includes bottom drawers and upper open shelves.

[0016] Furthermore, in step S2, the width of the lower cabinet group is adjusted by adjusting the width of the lower combined adjustment cabinet, as detailed below:

[0017] The bottom drawer includes an interconnected top panel, two side panels, and a back panel. The lower open shelf is movably mounted on the bottom drawer and includes an interconnected top panel, a short back panel, a long side panel, and short side legs connecting to the bottom of the top panel. The short back panel and short side legs are positioned on the top panel of the bottom drawer. The short back panel and short side legs are at the same height, and the height difference between the long side panel and the short side legs is the height of the bottom drawer. The width of the lower combination adjustment cabinet can be adjusted by adjusting the position of the short back panel and short side legs on the top panel.

[0018] Furthermore, in step S3, the width of the middle cabinet group is adjusted by adjusting the width of the intermediate combination adjustment cabinet, as detailed below:

[0019] The left and right ends of the middle open compartment are respectively inserted into the left and right open compartments, and the back panels of the three are arranged in an alternating manner; by adjusting the relative positions of the three, the width of the middle combined adjustment cabinet can be adjusted.

[0020] Furthermore, in step S4, the width of the upper cabinet group is adjusted by adjusting the width of the upper combined adjustment cabinet, as detailed below:

[0021] The bottom drawer includes an interconnected top panel, two side panels, and a back panel; the upper open compartment includes an interconnected top panel, short side panels, long side panels, and a back panel; the short side panels are placed on top of the bottom drawer, and the back panels are staggered in front of the back panels; the long side panels and the back panels are of equal height, and the height difference between the long and short side panels is the height of the bottom drawer; the width of the upper combination adjustment cabinet can be adjusted by adjusting the position of the short side panels on the top panel.

[0022] Furthermore, in step S2, the long garment hanging cabinet or storage cabinet or storage drawer and bottom drawer are located in the upper and lower rows respectively, and are fixed in the upper and lower positions by through screws through the plate.

[0023] Furthermore, in steps S3 and S4, the top surface of the storage cabinet, the top surface of the storage drawer, the top surface of the lower open shelf, the top surface of the long clothes hanging cabinet, the top and bottom surfaces of the short clothes hanging cabinet, the top and bottom surfaces of the left and right open shelves, and the bottom surface of the top cabinet are all equipped with interlocking and interlocking convex and concave modules that can cooperate with each other. Thus, the contact surfaces of two adjacent cabinet groups are interlocked and fixed by the interlocking convex and concave modules.

[0024] Specifically, the concave-convex structure is formed by alternating protrusions and grooves in the horizontal and vertical directions, and the protrusions and grooves are the same shape and equal in size.

[0025] Furthermore, in steps S3 and S4, the upper and middle cabinet groups, the middle combination adjustment cabinet and the storage cabinet or storage drawer or the lower combination adjustment cabinet, the short clothes hanging cabinet and the storage cabinet or storage drawer or the lower combination adjustment cabinet are stacked in a staggered manner across the cabinets, so that the components on the top, bottom and left and right interlock together to form a whole, effectively controlling the appearance of gaps between the cabinets.

[0026] In the above technical solution, when the cabinet is engaged, the contact surface is provided with concave and convex modules. The concave and convex modules are formed by alternating protrusions and grooves in the horizontal and vertical directions. The protrusions and grooves are the same in shape and size. The staggered engagement method and the inclined surface of the concave and convex modules make the cabinet easy to move during installation. The cabinet can then use its own weight to achieve the effect of returning to its original position and correcting its position, which increases the impact resistance of the entire cabinet and ensures the overall stability of the cabinet as well as the uniformity of its appearance.

[0027] Furthermore, in step S3, when two short-clothes hanging cabinets or one long-clothes hanging cabinet and one short-clothes hanging cabinet are placed side by side, the top and bottom of one of the short-clothes hanging cabinets are inverted so that the two side-by-side hanging cabinets achieve the effect of having double doors.

[0028] In real life, there is a strong demand for double doors. Since the top and bottom surfaces of the short clothes hanging cabinet are made of concave and convex modules, after rotating 180° around the center of the cabinet surface, the top and bottom surfaces can still be engaged and fixed with the upper and lower parts. Therefore, the effect of opening the left and right doors of the two cabinets can be achieved smoothly, which increases the convenience of using the cabinet.

[0029] Furthermore, in step S5, when there is no beam in the ceiling above the installation location, the method for adjusting the height of the upper cabinet assembly is as follows:

[0030] The top cabinet includes cabinets stacked from bottom to top, at least one height-increasing frame and an adjustable top, and an internal adjustment structure placed between the height-increasing frame and the adjustable top. The height-increasing frame has a placement slot. The internal adjustment structure includes an adjustment frame, an internal threaded tube fixed in the center of the adjustment frame, and a screw installed in the tube. The adjustment frame is placed in the placement slot, and the top of the screw is fixedly connected to the adjustable top by a plate nut and a screw. By adjusting the number of height-increasing frames and the relative position of the adjusting screw and the internal threaded tube, the height of the top cabinet can be adjusted so that the adjustable top is flush with the ceiling.

[0031] Furthermore, in step S5, when there is a beam in the ceiling above the installation location, the method for adjusting the height of the upper cabinet assembly is as follows:

[0032] The top cabinet includes cabinets stacked from bottom to top, at least one height-increasing frame, and an adjustable top, as well as an external adjustment structure fixed to the top surface of the adjustable top. The external adjustment structure includes two iron plate nuts connected in series from bottom to top, at least one single-headed hexagonal stud, and a rubber pad with a screw, with the two iron plate nuts fixed to the top surface of the adjustable top. By adjusting the number of height-increasing frames and the number of single-headed hexagonal studs, the height of the top cabinet can be adjusted so that the rubber pad with the screw is firmly against the ceiling.

[0033] The above technical solution ensures the overall stability of the cabinet and makes it more uniform in appearance, thus ensuring the rationality of appearance and function.

[0034] Furthermore, in step S5, when the ceiling above the installation location is uneven, a flexible material is placed between the top cabinet and the ceiling. This technical solution prevents uncontrollable gaps caused by uneven ceilings, and even avoids damage to the ceiling surface.

[0035] Furthermore, in step S1, when the outer side of the custom wardrobe is against a wall, a soft material is pre-installed between the outer side and the wall. Specifically, when the wardrobe is against one or both walls, a pre-installed soft material is provided between the entire wardrobe and the wall, which can effectively prevent uncontrollable gaps caused by wall tilting or unevenness, thus affecting the appearance or even damaging the wall.

[0036] This invention provides a wardrobe that achieves the space-efficient utilization of customized furniture while effectively reducing the time required for customization. The customization process is as follows: the customer provides the cabinet width at the store; the store quickly assembles the cabinet using standardized components based on the customer's needs and dimensions, then notifies the warehouse to dispatch a delivery truck; installation personnel then accompany the truck to the customer's home for rapid installation. Compared to existing technologies, this invention has the following technical advantages:

[0037] 1. All standardized parts can be mass-produced and transported, greatly reducing the waiting period for external customization and saving time and costs to a certain extent.

[0038] 2. The wardrobe of this invention has a flexible assembly method and simple installation method, and requires low professional level of installers. Users can even install it themselves.

[0039] 3. The wardrobe of this invention has size adjustment layers in both the left and right directions and the vertical direction, which minimizes the requirement for professional and precise measuring tools and avoids installation inconvenience and poor installation results caused by inaccurate measuring tools.

[0040] 4. When stacking this custom-made wardrobe, the interlocking of the cabinets between layers and the locking structure between the top cabinet and the ceiling in the vertical direction achieve precise, neat, and sturdy stacking.

[0041] 5. The structure and function of the cabinets can be flexibly adjusted. When family members or living needs change, the number of cabinets with different functions can be increased or decreased according to the needs, and the distribution of functional areas can be adjusted to achieve the freedom of cabinet conversion.

Detailed Implementation

[0070] The invention will now be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0071] like Figure 1 As shown, the custom wardrobe constructed using standardized components in this invention is mainly composed of lower, middle, and upper cabinet groups stacked from bottom to top, with the lower, middle, and upper cabinet groups having equal widths, and each selected from the lower, middle, and upper standardized components.

[0072] The lower-level standardized components include a bottom drawer box 1, a bottom drawer basket 2, and a lower-level open shelf 3. The bottom drawer box 1 and the bottom drawer basket 2 can form a movable storage drawer, and the bottom drawer box 1 and the lower-level open shelf 3 can form a lower-level modular adjustment cabinet. The lower-level cabinet assembly uses at least one component from the movable storage drawer and the lower-level modular adjustment cabinet, and the number of each selected component is one or more.

[0073] The standardized components of the middle layer include storage cabinet 4, storage drawer 5, long garment hanging cabinet 6, short garment hanging cabinet 7, left open shelf 8, middle open shelf 9, and right open shelf 10, and the left, middle, and right open shelves 8, 9, and 10 can form a middle combination adjustment cabinet. The middle cabinet group uses at least one component selected from the following combinations: long garment hanging cabinet 6, a combination of the middle combination adjustment cabinet and storage cabinet 4 or storage drawer 5, or a combination of short garment hanging cabinet 6 and storage cabinet 4 or storage drawer 5, and each selected component can be one or more.

[0074] The standardized upper-level components include a top cabinet 11, a bottom drawer 1, and an upper open compartment 12, and the bottom drawer 1 and the upper open compartment 12 can form an upper-level combined control cabinet. The upper-level cabinet assembly may select at least one of the top cabinet 11 and the upper-level combined control cabinet, and the number of each selected component may be one or more.

[0075] like Figure 2a , 2b As shown, the bottom drawer box 1 includes an interconnected top panel, two side panels, and a back panel. A movable bottom drawer basket 2 is placed inside the bottom drawer box 1, including an outer basket 2-1 and an inner basket 2-2 that is movable within it. The inner basket 2-2 includes an interconnected back panel, two side panels, and a bottom panel, as well as a connecting rod 2-5 connecting the front tops of the two side panels. The outer basket 2-1 includes a basket frame 2-3 and a front panel 2-4 mounted on its front side, with the width of the front panel 2-4 greater than the width of the inner basket 2-2. If the movable bottom drawer basket 2 is pulled out of the bottom drawer box 1 for separate use, it can be used as a pull-out basket, allowing items to be moved elsewhere. The remaining bottom drawer box 1 can then be used as an open storage cavity, increasing convenience. Furthermore, the inner basket 2-2 can be removed from the bottom drawer basket 2 and stacked in a long-clothes hanging cabinet 6 or a short-clothes hanging cabinet 7, changing the function of the hanging area into a comprehensive storage area.

[0076] like Figure 3a , 3b As shown, the lower open shelf 3 is movably placed on the bottom drawer 1 to form the lower combined adjustment cabinet. It includes an interconnected top shelf 3-1, a short back shelf 3-2, a long side shelf 3-3, and short side legs 3-4 connecting to the bottom of the top shelf 3-1. The short back shelf 3-2 and short side legs 3-4 are placed on the top shelf of the bottom drawer 1, and their heights are equal. The height difference between the long side shelf 3-3 and the short side legs 3-4 is equal to the height of the bottom drawer 1. Figure 4 As shown, the width of the lower combination adjustment cabinet can be adjusted by adjusting the position of the short frame back plate 3-2 and the short frame side legs 3-4 on the top plate of the box.

[0077] like Figure 5 , 6 As shown, the left and right ends of the middle open compartment 9 are respectively inserted into the left and right open compartments 8 and 10, and the back panels of the three are arranged in an alternating manner; by adjusting the relative positions of the three, the overall width of the middle combined adjustment cabinet can be adjusted.

[0078] like Figure 7 , 8As shown, the upper open compartment 12 and the bottom drawer 1 form the upper combined adjustment cabinet. The upper open compartment 12 includes an interconnected top plate 12-1, a short side plate 12-2, a long side plate 12-3, and a back plate 12-4; the short side plate 12-2 is placed on the top plate of the bottom drawer 1, and the back plate is staggered in front of the back plate 12-4; the long side plate 12-3 and the back plate 12-4 are of equal height, and the height difference between the long side plate 12-3 and the short side plate 12-2 is the height of the bottom drawer 1. Figure 9 As shown, the width of the upper combined adjustment cabinet can be adjusted by adjusting the position of the short compartment side plate 12-3 placed on the top plate of the box.

[0079] The top cabinet 11 adopts a fixed structure between the vertical direction and the ceiling, including the following standardized components: cabinet body 11-1, height-increasing frame 11-2, adjustable top 11-4, internal adjustment structure 11-3 and external adjustment structure 11-6. The required standardized components are selected according to whether there is a beam on the ceiling above the installation position of the custom wardrobe and the installation height of the top cabinet.

[0080] a) The ceiling above the installation location of the custom wardrobe does not have a beam.

[0081] like Figure 10 As shown, the top cabinet 11 includes cabinet bodies 11-1 stacked from bottom to top, at least one heightening frame 11-2, and an adjustable top 11-4, as well as an internal adjustment structure placed between the heightening frame 11-2 and the adjustable top 11-4. The cabinet body 11-1 has a door on its front side and a bottom but no top. A support frame is installed on the inner periphery of the top of the cabinet body 11-1. The heightening frame 11-2 includes a rectangular frame and a downwardly protruding insertion frame installed on its bottom inner periphery; this insertion frame can be inserted into the top of the cabinet body and aligned with the aforementioned support frame. Furthermore, a placement groove 11-21 is provided in the middle of the top of the front and rear frames of the insertion frame. The adjustable top 11-4 includes a top plate with a screw hole in the center and a top plate insertion frame installed on the bottom surface of the top plate; this top plate insertion frame can be inserted into the rectangular frame and aligned with the aforementioned insertion frame.

[0082] like Figure 11As shown, the internal adjustment structure 11-3 includes an adjustment frame 11-31 with a through hole in the center, an internal threaded tube 11-32 installed above the through hole, an internal hexagonal screw 11-33 inserted into the tube 11-32, a plate nut 11-35 with a round end installed at the top of the internal hexagonal screw 11-33, and a screw 11-34. The front and rear frames of the adjustment frame 11-31 are placed in the placement slots 11-21 of the corresponding heightening frames 11-2. By rotating the internal hexagonal screw 11-33 with a hex wrench, its top end is screwed upward out of the top of the internal adjustment structure 11-3, and the top end of the internal hexagonal screw 11-33 is inserted into the round end of the plate nut 11-35. The cylindrical end of the plate nut 11-35 is installed from bottom to top in the adjustment top 11-4. The screw 11-34 is inserted from above the screw hole on the top plate of the adjustment top 11-4 and is connected and locked with the plate nut 11-35. By adjusting the number of height-increasing frames 11-2 and the distance from which the adjusting screw 11-33 extends out of the top of the built-in threaded tube 11-32, the height of this top cabinet 11 can be adjusted, and the adjusting top 11-4 can be fixed to the ceiling.

[0083] b. The ceiling above the installation location of the custom wardrobe has a beam.

[0084] like Figure 12 As shown, the top cabinet 11 includes cabinet bodies 11-1 stacked from bottom to top, at least one heightening frame 11-2, and an adjustable top 11-4, as well as an external adjustment structure 11-6 fixed to the top surface of the adjustable top 11-4. The external adjustment structure 11-6 includes two iron plate nuts 11-63 connected in series from bottom to top, at least one single-headed hexagonal stud 11-62, and a rubber pad 11-61 with a screw. The iron plate nuts 11-63 are fixed to the top surface of the adjustable top 11-4 from top to bottom. Figure 13 As shown, by adjusting the number of height-increasing frames 11-2 and the number of single-head hexagonal studs 11-62, and by rotating and adjusting the height of the exposed threads of the single-head hexagonal studs 11-62 and the rubber pads 11-61 with screws, the height of the top cabinet 11 can be adjusted, and the rubber pads 11-61 with screws can be pressed firmly against the ceiling.

[0085] like Figure 14-16 As shown, a special board with a concave-convex structure 13 is used as the contact surface when two adjacent cabinets are built up vertically. The contact surface of the upper and middle cabinet groups is fixed by the interlocking of the concave-convex structure 13. In the middle cabinet group, the contact surface of the short clothes hanging cabinet 7 or the middle combination adjustment cabinet and the storage cabinet 4 or the storage drawer 5 or the movable storage cabinet is fixed by the interlocking of the concave-convex structure 13 of the special board when they are built together. The middle and lower cabinet groups are fixed by through screws.

[0086] like Figure 17As shown, taking a section of the concave-convex structure 13 on a special board as an example, the concave-convex structure 13 is formed by alternating protrusions 13-1 and grooves 13-2 in both horizontal and vertical directions, and the protrusions 13-1 and grooves 13-2 are the same shape and size. Due to the inclined characteristics of the protrusions 13-1 and grooves 13-2 in the concave-convex structure 13, the cabinet is easily moved during installation and can be repositioned and corrected. Furthermore, the layers are stacked in an interlocking manner, making the cabinets interlock into a single unit. This not only enhances the cabinet's impact resistance and stability, preventing movement, but also allows for repositioning, ensuring the overall stability of the wardrobe and a uniform appearance, thus guaranteeing the rationality of both appearance and function. In addition, as time passes and family circumstances change, adding, removing, or replacing different cabinet modules becomes very simple when users have new storage needs, making the cabinets no longer static but flexible and adaptable to user requirements.

[0087] By utilizing the aforementioned standardized upper, middle, and lower layers, and selecting components of varying widths and quantities, this custom wardrobe can be assembled in any way. For example... Figure 18 As shown, in Example 1, the custom wardrobe uses three movable storage cabinets of different widths. Two storage cabinets 4 of different widths, one storage drawer 5, and three short clothes hanging cabinets 7 of different widths are selected as the middle layer cabinets. Two top cabinets 11 of equal width are selected as the upper layer cabinets. The lower, middle, and upper layer cabinets are then stacked from bottom to top. The top surfaces of the storage cabinets 4 and the storage drawer 5 are interlocked with the bottom surfaces of the short clothes hanging cabinets 7 using special boards with a concave-convex structure. The bottom surfaces of the top cabinets 11 and the top surfaces of the short clothes hanging cabinets 7 are also interlocked with special boards with a concave-convex structure. This creates a custom wardrobe with multiple functions, appropriate size, and a neat and uniform appearance.

[0088] like Figure 19 As shown, in Example 2, the customized wardrobe uses movable storage cabinets, long hanging cabinets 7, and top cabinets 11 as the lower, middle, and upper cabinets, which are then assembled. Different widths of the same standardized components are selected to ensure that the overall width of the lower, middle, and upper cabinets is equal, resulting in a neat and uniform appearance for the assembled customized wardrobe.

[0089] like Figure 20 As shown, in Example 3, the custom wardrobe selects five movable storage cabinets as the lower cabinet, two storage cabinets 4, one storage drawer 5, three short hanging cabinets 7, and two long hanging cabinets 6 as the middle cabinet, and three top cabinets 11 as the upper cabinet. Then, the lower, middle, and upper cabinets are stacked from bottom to top, and standardized components of suitable width are selected to make the width of the lower, middle, and upper cabinets of the assembled custom wardrobe equal.

[0090] like Figure 21 As shown, the custom wardrobe in Example 4 uses four storage drawers 5, two short hanging cabinets 7, a long hanging cabinet 6, and a middle-layer adjustable cabinet as the middle cabinet body. The relative positions of the left open compartment 8, the middle open compartment 9, and the right open compartment 10 in the middle-layer adjustable cabinet are adjusted so that the two outer sides of the left open compartment 8 and the right open compartment 10 are close to the adjacent cabinet body, so that the width of the middle cabinet body reaches the width of the upper cabinet body.

[0091] The installation methods for the customized wardrobes described in the above embodiments are as follows:

[0092] S1. Based on the apartment layout, the dimensions of the installation location, and the user's needs, select the required components for the lower, middle, and upper cabinet groups from the standardized components for the lower, middle, and upper levels, and determine the width and number of the selected components, as well as the arrangement order of each component in the lower, middle, and upper cabinet groups.

[0093] S2. At the installation location of the custom wardrobe, place the components of the lower cabinet unit together in a row; then adjust the width of the lower cabinet unit to match the width of the installation location. Specifically, if the lower cabinet unit includes a lower adjustable combination cabinet, the width of the lower cabinet unit can be adjusted by adjusting the width of the lower adjustable combination cabinet.

[0094] S3. Place the components of the middle cabinet group on top of the lower cabinet group, close together in a row, so that the top surfaces of each component are on the same horizontal plane.

[0095] Then adjust the width of the middle cabinet group to make it equal to the width of the lower cabinet group. When the middle cabinet group contains a middle adjustable combination cabinet, the width of the middle cabinet group can be adjusted by adjusting the width of the middle adjustable combination cabinet.

[0096] The internal components of the middle-layer cabinet assembly are then secured together as follows: the top surfaces of storage cabinet 4, storage drawer 5, lower open shelf 3, short garment hanging cabinet 7, and the bottom surfaces of left and right open shelves 8 and 10 are all fitted with interlocking, interlocking protrusion-contact modules. The contact surfaces of the internal components of the middle-layer cabinet assembly are thus secured by these interlocking modules. Furthermore, the two cabinet layers are stacked in a staggered manner across the cabinet body, ensuring that the components on all sides interlock as a single unit. When fixing the components of the middle-layer cabinet assembly to the bottom drawer 1, they are secured using through screws.

[0097] In addition, such as Figure 24As shown, when two short-clothes hanging cabinets 7 or one long-clothes hanging cabinet 6 and one short-clothes hanging cabinet 7 are placed side by side, the top and bottom of one of the short-clothes hanging cabinets 7 are inverted, so that the two hanging cabinets achieve the effect of double doors. During implementation, installers can pre-install the cabinet doors and adjust the opening direction on-site according to the actual situation, reducing the installation difficulty and professionalism, and ensuring the aesthetics of the installation effect.

[0098] S4. Place the components of the upper cabinet group on top of the middle cabinet group, close together in a row.

[0099] Then adjust the width of the upper cabinet group to make it equal to the width of the middle cabinet group. When the upper cabinet group contains an upper adjustable combination cabinet, the width of the upper cabinet group can be adjusted by adjusting the width of the upper combination adjustable cabinet.

[0100] Next, the middle cabinet group and the upper cabinet group are fixed to each other, as follows: The top surface of the long clothes hanging cabinet 6, the top surface of the short clothes hanging cabinet 7, the top surface of the left open compartment 8 and the right open compartment 10, and the bottom surface of the top cabinet 11 are all equipped with interlocking and interlocking concave and convex modules that can cooperate with each other. The contact surfaces of the upper and middle cabinet groups are fixed by interlocking concave and convex modules, and the components are interlocked together to form a whole by using a method of stacking across the cabinets.

[0101] S5. Adjust the height of the upper cabinet unit so that the entire custom wardrobe touches the ceiling and is locked.

[0102] During implementation, the height of the top cabinet 11 is adjusted by stacking height-increasing frames 11-2 and adjusting tops 11-4 on the cabinet body 11-1. At the same time, the distance between the top cabinet 11 and the ceiling is further adjusted by using internal adjustment structures 11-3 and other micro-adjustment structures. This ensures that the entire top cabinet 11 is firmly against the ceiling and locked in place, guaranteeing overall stability and a neat appearance.

[0103] In rare cases, there may be a beam in the ceiling above the installation area of ​​the custom wardrobe. In such cases, the height can be adjusted by placing an adjustable top 11-4 and stacking a height-increasing frame 11-2 above the top cabinet 11. At the same time, a special external adjustment structure is installed on the adjustable top 11-4 to secure it against the ceiling. This ensures that the entire top cabinet 11 is firmly against the ceiling and locked in place, guaranteeing overall stability and a neat appearance.

[0104] Furthermore, when the ceiling above the installation location is uneven, soft material is placed between the top cabinet and the ceiling. When the outer side of this custom wardrobe is against a wall, in step S1, soft material is pre-installed between the outer side and the wall to ensure a seamless gap between the cabinet and the ceiling or wall, making the overall structure more robust and durable.

[0105] like Figure 22 , 23As shown, in Example 5, the customized wardrobe, based on the required width, selects movable storage cabinets and a lower adjustable combination cabinet as the lower cabinet body; selects two storage cabinets 4, two storage drawers 5, two short coat hanging cabinets 7, a long coat hanging cabinet 6, and a middle adjustable combination cabinet as the middle cabinet body; and selects a top cabinet 11 and an upper adjustable combination cabinet as the upper cabinet body. The specific details of installing this customized wardrobe using the above installation method are as follows... Figure 25a-25g As shown:

[0106] A1, such as Figure 25a , 25b As shown, install the bottom drawer boxes 1 of the movable storage cabinets in the lower cabinet group. At the wardrobe installation location, place the seven bottom drawer boxes 1 close together, divided into two groups, left and right, with a gap between the two middle bottom drawer boxes 1 in each group. Adjust the adjustable feet at the bottom of each bottom drawer box 1 so that the top surfaces of each bottom drawer box 1 are on the same horizontal plane. Then, place two storage cabinets 4 and two storage drawers 5 on the bottom drawer boxes 1, arranging them in the second row, with the top surfaces of the storage cabinets 4 and storage drawers 5 on the same horizontal plane. The widths of the two fixed components must match, and they must be connected with screws.

[0107] A2, such as Figure 25b As shown, the lower open shelf of the lower cabinet assembly is installed. The lower open shelf 3 is placed in the gap of the bottom drawer panel 3, with its short side legs 3-4 stacked on top of a bottom drawer 1. The minimum distance between the short side legs 3-4 and the storage cabinet 4 on its left is 150mm, and the width can be adjusted left and right according to the actual application scenario. The long side panel of the lower open shelf 3 is placed to the ground and close to the storage drawer 5 on its right. The top surface of the lower open shelf 3 is on the same horizontal plane as the top surfaces of the storage cabinet 4 and the storage drawer 5.

[0108] A3, such as Figure 25c As shown, the middle-level cabinets are fitted with short-clothes hanging cabinets 7 and long-clothes hanging cabinets 6. The four short-clothes hanging cabinets 7 are interlocked and fixed to the top surface of the storage cabinet 4, the storage drawer 5, and the lower open shelf 3. The two long-clothes hanging cabinets 6 are fixed to the top surface of the bottom drawer box 1 with screws. The long-clothes hanging cabinets 6 are close to the short-clothes hanging cabinets 7 on the right side, and the top surfaces of all hanging cabinets are on the same horizontal plane.

[0109] A4, such as Figure 25d As shown, install the middle-layer combination adjustable cabinet. First, place the left open shelf 8 to the right of the short clothes hanging cabinet 7, aligning its left side panel with the front of the short clothes hanging cabinet 7, and ensuring its top surface is on the same horizontal plane as the top surfaces of all hanging cabinets. Next, place the right open shelf 10 to the right of the left open shelf 8, aligning its right side panel with the right side of the lower storage drawer 5, and ensuring its front end is aligned with the front end of the right side of the lower storage drawer 5, making the wardrobe neat and uniform. Then, insert the left and right ends of the middle open shelf 9 into the left and right open shelves 8 and 10.

[0110] A5, such as Figure 25e As shown, the top cabinet 11 of the upper cabinet assembly is installed. The four top cabinets 11 are interlocked and fixed to the top surfaces of the short clothes hanging cabinet 7 and the long clothes hanging cabinet 6, with a gap between the two middle top cabinets 11. Then, the internal adjustment mechanism of the top cabinet 11 is adjusted so that the top of the top cabinet 11 is flush with the ceiling.

[0111] A6, such as Figure 25f As shown, the upper adjustable combination cabinet is installed. The upper open compartment 12 is placed in the gap of the top cabinet 11, with its long side panel 12-3 close to the left side of the top cabinet 11, and its front end aligned with the front end of the top cabinet 11. Then, the bottom drawer box 1 is placed into the upper open compartment 12, with its right side panel close to the right side of the top cabinet 11.

[0112] In summary, the method of this invention not only allows for the free adjustment of the cabinet's width and height according to actual space requirements through the addition or removal of standardized components, but also employs an interlocking method for vertical installation, replacing the previous method of drilling through screws. Furthermore, it allows for small-scale self-repair of the cabinet's position, greatly reducing the need for professional precision measuring tools and avoiding installation inconveniences caused by inaccurate measurements. This significantly reduces installation difficulty and increases efficiency. Secondly, the special structure that secures the cabinet to the ceiling effectively prevents movement, enhances its impact resistance, and ensures the overall stability of the wardrobe. In addition, the method achieves a uniform appearance, thus ensuring a rational balance between aesthetics and function. Especially as time goes by and family circumstances change, when users have new storage needs, they can add, remove, or replace different cabinet modules to change the distribution of functional areas, achieving flexible and free cabinet combinations simply and efficiently.
