Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of furniture technology, specifically to a furniture component that can be repeatedly disassembled and assembled, and furniture having the component. Background Technology

[0002] In modern furniture manufacturing, the detachability of furniture components has become an important consideration. It not only makes it easier for users to adjust the layout, clean and maintain the furniture, but also saves space when moving or storing.

[0003] Currently, most furniture components use bolts or mortise and tenon joints (such as...). Figure 1 As shown, the detachable function is achieved by bolt assembly. Although the structure is relatively simple, the disassembly and assembly process requires frequent and repeated operation with tools, which is not convenient. After repeated disassembly and assembly, the tightness of the tenon and mortise in the mortise and tenon structure will be affected, resulting in an unstable connection. At the same time, since the force of the mortise and tenon structure is concentrated on the tenon when subjected to force, the tenon itself is relatively fragile (flat "thin sheet") and is easily deformed and damaged when subjected to external force, thus shortening the service life of the furniture.

[0004] Therefore, the present invention proposes a furniture component with reusable assembly and disassembly, and furniture having the component, to solve the above-mentioned problems. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of embodiments of the present invention is to provide a furniture component that can be repeatedly disassembled and assembled, and furniture having the component, in order to solve the above-mentioned problems.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A furniture assembly with reusable assembly and disassembly includes a first furniture piece and a second furniture piece detachably connected to the first furniture piece. The first furniture piece is provided with a socket groove. The second furniture piece is provided with a connecting post adapted to the socket groove at the end connected to the first furniture piece. The second furniture piece is provided with a fastener for locking onto the first furniture piece. The first furniture piece is provided with a locking member for locking the fastener and a support mechanism for supporting the second furniture piece to prevent force concentration on the connecting post.

[0008] In one alternative: the locking element is a pin, the latching element has a pin hole for the pin end to be inserted, and the first furniture element has a slot for positioning the pin when the pin end is inserted into the pin hole.

[0009] In one alternative: the support mechanism includes an mounting component and multiple pressing components. The mounting component is located on the side where the first furniture component and the second furniture component contact each other, and the mounting component is arranged to surround the socket groove. The multiple pressing components are evenly arranged circumferentially inside the mounting component and can move synchronously away from / near the center of the mounting component.

[0010] In one alternative: each of the pressing members has a protective pad on the side that abuts against the second furniture member.

[0011] In one alternative embodiment: the first furniture component is provided with a drive mechanism for synchronously moving multiple pressing components toward / away from the center of the mounting component. The drive mechanism includes a drive disk and a frame-shaped component located inside the mounting component. A hollow cylinder is located at the center of the drive disk. The drive disk is rotatably positioned on one side of the first furniture component and the second furniture component opposite to each other via the hollow cylinder. The hollow cylinder is coaxial with the socket groove. One end of each pressing component located inside the mounting component is inclined. The inner side of the frame-shaped component is adapted to and abuts against the inclined end of the pressing component. The drive disk... The frame member has at least one arc-shaped protrusion and at least one drive rod. The drive rod passes through the side of the mounting member near the drive disc, and the end of the drive rod away from the frame member abuts against the side of the arc-shaped protrusion. Several reset spring ropes are provided between each pressing member and the inner side of the mounting member. A torsion spring for resetting the drive disc is provided at the connection between the hollow cylinder and the first furniture member. The hollow cylinder is adapted to the plug-in post, and at least one protrusion is provided on the inner side of the hollow cylinder. The end of the plug-in post away from the second furniture member is provided with an inner groove that corresponds to and is adapted to the protrusion.

[0012] In one alternative: a ball bearing is embedded at the end of the drive rod that abuts against the side of the arc-shaped protrusion.

[0013] A type of furniture, comprising furniture components that can be repeatedly disassembled and reassembled as described in any of the above-described technical solutions.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the embodiments of the present invention are as follows:

[0015] 1. When assembling the first and second furniture pieces, first pick up the second furniture piece and turn it to adjust the position of the fastener, so that the fastener moves toward the first furniture piece without interference. Maintain this state and pass the insert pin at the end of the second furniture piece through the socket groove on the first furniture piece until the second furniture piece abuts against the first furniture piece. Then turn the second furniture piece so that the fastener is locked onto the first furniture piece. Finally, lock the fastener with the locking device to complete the assembly of the first and second furniture pieces. No tools are needed for disassembly and assembly. The operation is simple and efficient.

[0016] 2. The second furniture component is supported by a support mechanism. The force on the second furniture component is mainly borne by the support mechanism, while the actual force on the connecting column is relatively small, which avoids excessive stress and damage, and ensures the service life of the furniture.

[0031] The present application will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the following specific embodiments are only used to further illustrate the present application and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present application. Those skilled in the art can make some non-essential improvements and adjustments to the present application based on the above application content.

[0032] Please see Figures 2-6 A furniture assembly with reusable assembly and disassembly includes a first furniture component 1 and a second furniture component 2 detachably connected to the first furniture component 1. The first furniture component 1 is provided with a socket groove 7. The second furniture component 2 is provided with a connecting post 8 adapted to the socket groove 7 at the end connected to the first furniture component 1. The second furniture component 2 is provided with a fastener 5 for fastening onto the first furniture component 1. The first furniture component 1 is provided with a locking member for locking the fastener 5 and a support mechanism 3 for supporting the second furniture component 2 to avoid force concentration on the connecting post 8.

[0033] When assembling the first furniture piece 1 and the second furniture piece 2, first pick up the second furniture piece 2 and rotate it to adjust the position of the fastener 5, so that the fastener 5 can move undisturbed towards the first furniture piece 1. Maintaining this state, pass the insert post 8 at the end of the second furniture piece 2 through the socket groove 7 on the first furniture piece 1 until the second furniture piece 2 abuts against the first furniture piece 1. Then, rotate the second furniture piece 2 so that the fastener 5 is engaged with the first furniture piece 1. Finally, lock the fastener 5 with the locking device to complete the assembly of the first furniture piece 1 and the second furniture piece 2. After assembly, The support mechanism 3 supports the second furniture component 2. The force on the second furniture component 2 is mainly borne by the support mechanism 3, and the actual force on the connecting column 8 is relatively small, thus avoiding excessive stress and damage to the connecting column 8. When it is necessary to separate the first furniture component 1 and the second furniture component 2, first release the locking piece, then deflect the second furniture component 2 so that the buckle 5 disengages from the first furniture component 1, and then pull the second furniture component 2 away from the first furniture component 1 to separate it. The disassembly and assembly work does not require the use of tools, the operation is simple, and it achieves efficient and convenient disassembly and assembly, while also ensuring the service life of the furniture.

[0034] Please see Figures 1-5 In one embodiment of the present invention, the locking member is a pin 6, the buckle member 5 is provided with a pin hole 9 for the end of the pin 6 to be inserted, and the first furniture member 1 is provided with a slot 10 for positioning the pin 6 when the end of the pin 6 is inserted into the pin hole 9.

[0035] In this embodiment, when the buckle 5 is in place, the end of the pin 6 is inserted into the pin hole 9 to lock the buckle 5. At this time, the hand-held part of the pin 6 is in the slot 10. The hand-held part of the pin 6 is deflected toward the slot 10 until it is inserted into the slot 10, thereby positioning the pin 6 and ensuring that the first furniture piece 1 and the second furniture piece 2 are assembled stably.

[0036] Please see Figures 2-5 , Figures 7-10 In one embodiment of the present invention, the support mechanism 3 includes an installation member 301 and a plurality of pressing members 302. The installation member 301 is disposed on the side where the first furniture member 1 and the second furniture member 2 are in contact, and the installation member 301 is arranged to surround the socket groove 7. The plurality of pressing members 302 are evenly disposed circumferentially inside the installation member 301 and can move synchronously toward / away from the center of the installation member 301.

[0037] The first furniture component 1 is provided with a drive mechanism 4 for synchronously moving multiple pressing components 302 toward / away from the center of the mounting component 301. The drive mechanism 4 includes a drive disk 403 and a frame-shaped component 402 disposed inside the mounting component 301. A hollow cylinder 405 is provided at the center of the drive disk 403. The drive disk 403 is rotatably disposed on the side opposite to the first furniture component 1 and the second furniture component 2 via the hollow cylinder 405. The hollow cylinder 405 is coaxial with the socket groove 7. One end of each pressing component 302 inside the mounting component 301 is inclined. The inner side of the frame-shaped component 402 is adapted to and abuts against the inclined end of the pressing component 302. The drive disk 403 is provided with at least one arc-shaped protrusion 404. The frame member 402 is provided with at least one drive rod 407. The drive rod 407 passes through the mounting member 301 on the side near the drive disk 403, and the end of the drive rod 407 away from the frame member 402 abuts against the side of the arc-shaped protrusion 404. Several reset spring ropes 401 are provided between each pressing member 302 and the inner side of the mounting member 301. The hollow cylinder 405 is provided with a torsion spring (not shown in the figure) for resetting the drive disk 403 at the connection between it and the first furniture member 1. The hollow cylinder 405 is adapted to the plug-in post 8, and at least one protrusion 406 is provided on the inner side of the hollow cylinder 405. The end of the plug-in post 8 away from the second furniture member 2 is provided with an inner groove 408 that corresponds to and is adapted to the protrusion 406.

[0038] It should be noted that the torsion spring is configured such that when the drive disc 403 is not subjected to external force, the arc-shaped protrusion 404 on the drive disc 403 is positioned under the action of the torsion spring so that "the lower end of the side abuts against the end of the drive rod 407 away from the frame member 402". At this time, the original orientation angle of the protrusion 406 provided on the inner side of the hollow cylinder 405 is the deflection angle of the insert post 8 passing through the socket groove 7. As long as it does not interfere with the movement of the buckle 5 toward the first furniture member 1, this embodiment is described with the original orientation angle of the protrusion 406 being 90°.

[0039] In this embodiment, the second furniture piece 2 first aligns with the first furniture piece 1 at a 90° angle, that is, the insert post 8 also passes through the socket groove 7 at a 90° angle and its end away from the second furniture piece 2 enters the hollow cylinder 405. During the process of the insert post 8 entering the hollow cylinder 405, the protrusion 406 located on the inner side of the hollow cylinder 405 will engage with the corresponding inner groove 408. Then, the second furniture piece 2 is deflected so that the fastener 5 gradually engages with the first furniture piece 1. During the deflection of the second furniture piece 2, the drive disc 403 rotates synchronously. Since the end of the drive rod 407 away from the frame member 402 abuts against the side of the arc-shaped protrusion 404, the rotation of the drive disc 403 will cause the frame member 402 to move towards the pressing member 302. The inner side of the frame 402 is adapted to and abuts the inclined end of the pressing member 302. Therefore, the frame 402 moves toward the pressing member 302, causing multiple pressing members 302 to move synchronously toward the center of the mounting member 301. When the second furniture piece 2 deflects and the buckle 5 is fully snapped onto the first furniture piece 1, it means that the buckle is in place. At this time, the second furniture piece 2 cannot continue to deflect, and the multiple pressing members 302 are just tightly abutting against the second furniture piece 2. Then, the buckle 5 is locked by the locking member, thus completing the assembly of the first furniture piece 1 and the second furniture piece 2. The multiple pressing members 302 that are tightly abutting against the second furniture piece 2 bear the force of the second furniture piece 2. The force on the connecting column 8 is mainly to overcome the return force of the torsion spring and the torque force when it abuts against the drive rod 407. The stress is small and can effectively prevent damage to the connecting column 8.

[0040] Furthermore, in this embodiment, each of the pressing members 302 is provided with a protective pad 303 on the side that abuts against the second furniture piece 2, which plays a protective role for the second furniture piece 2 and prevents the second furniture piece 2 from having indentations or marks when the pressing member 302 abuts against the second furniture piece 2.

[0041] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a ball bearing 409 is embedded at the end of the drive rod 407 that abuts against the side of the arc-shaped protrusion 404. By setting the ball bearing 409, the contact between the side of the arc-shaped protrusion 404 and the end of the drive rod 407 changes from sliding friction to rolling friction, thereby improving the smoothness of the drive.

[0042] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a threaded reinforcing screw (not shown in the figure) can also be threaded onto the drive disk 403. When assembled in place, the end of the reinforcing screw is rotated to press tightly against the first furniture piece 1, ensuring the drive disk 403 is stable, thereby further improving the assembly firmness.

[0043] The present invention also provides a piece of furniture, including any of the above-described technical solutions, which has a furniture component that can be repeatedly disassembled and reassembled.

[0044] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of the invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as exemplary and non-limiting, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within the present invention.

[0045] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
