Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of furniture connectors, in particular to a plate-type furniture connector. Background Art

[0002] The combination of panel furniture is usually connected by various metal hardware, which is convenient for transportation. Because the base material breaks the original physical structure of the wood, the deformation of artificial boards is much better than that of solid wood when the temperature and humidity change greatly, and the quality is more stable than that of solid wood furniture. Panel furniture is made of medium-density fiberboard or particleboard with surface veneer and other processes. A large part of this kind of furniture is wood grain simulation furniture. The veneers of some panel furniture sold on the market are becoming more and more realistic, with good gloss and feel, and the prices of products with fine craftsmanship are also very expensive. Natural wood veneer veneer is difficult to maintain due to the use of solid wood veneer, and the wear resistance, high temperature resistance and waterproofness of the veneer are much worse than those of melamine veneer.

[0003] In the process of connecting existing panel furniture, metal hardware is mostly used for connection. Although the structural strength of metal hardware is high, it does not have the characteristic of expansion and will fall off due to wear after long-term use. In addition, most metal hardware is designed to be external. Users are easily scratched due to contact with protruding metal hardware during use. Based on this, the present invention designs a panel furniture connector to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention
