Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of furniture product manufacturing, and in particular to a modular design method for customized cabinets. Background Art

[0002] The existing whole-house customized home design method requires that each design plan requires the terminal designer to splice and design independent panels into independent cabinet components according to the customer's space and personalized needs, and then combine multiple independent cabinets into functional cabinets for specific purposes, and then arrange multiple functional cabinets reasonably to finally form a complete space plan. The process requires step-by-step matching and combination from the bottom layer, involving a large number of module additions and parameter adjustments, and requires high capabilities in designer space storage design, force-bearing structure design, product understanding, functional matching, and aesthetic literacy. In addition, the design work for different customers must go through the above steps, resulting in a large workload for terminal designers, a lot of repetitive work, unreasonable functional design errors, and a long plan drawing cycle. Summary of the invention

[0003] In view of the defects of the above-mentioned prior art, the present invention provides a modular design method for customized cabinets, which can reduce the repetitive work of designers, reduce the design error rate, and shorten the design cycle.

[0004] The present invention is implemented by the following technical solutions:

[0005] A modular design method for customized cabinets, comprising:

[0006] Build a modular cabinet resource library, which includes a finished cabinet resource library, a unit cabinet resource library, a structural unit resource library, a component resource library, and a functional part resource library. The finished cabinet resource library, the unit cabinet resource library, the structural unit resource library, the component resource library, and the functional part resource library are classified from top to bottom, and the product parameters of each level of resource library are designed in a unified and standardized manner. The products of the upper level resource library are composed of the products of the lower level resource library, and each level of resource library includes a preset solution pool; select the corresponding resource library step by step according to the top-down calling rules until a design solution that meets customer needs is selected;

[0007] Establish guidance rules for each level of resource library, and guide designers to search and judge the preset solution pool according to the guidance rules. If the preset solution pool meets the needs, select the preset solution in the preset solution pool. If the preset solution pool does not meet the needs, jump to the next level of resource library;

[0008] According to customer needs, first search from the preset solution pool of the finished cabinet resource library to see if there is a preset finished cabinet that meets the needs. If so, select the preset finished cabinet and output the design solution. If not, you can jump to the unit cabinet resource library, structural unit resource library, component resource library and functional part resource library step by step to splice products until a design solution that meets the needs is output.

[0009] Furthermore, the product parameters of each level of resource library include punching rules and size restriction rules.

[0010] Furthermore, when jumping to the structural unit resource library, according to the guidance rules, no preset solution that meets the requirements is found, and jumping to the new structural unit module is performed. Feedback allows customers to propose new requirements, and new structural units are added according to the new requirements, and then the design plan is output.

[0011] Furthermore, when jumping to the functional component resource library, according to the guidance rules, no preset solution that meets the requirements is found, and jumping to the new functional component module is performed. Feedback allows customers to propose new requirements, new functional components are added according to the new requirements, and then the design plan is output.

[0012] Furthermore, the structural unit of the structural unit resource library has an inner empty area, and the components of the component resource library are automatically adapted to the inner empty area of ​​the structural unit.

[0013] Furthermore, the order of adding functional components in the functional component resource library is: first add the storage functional component in the inner empty area of ​​the structural unit, and then add the panel functional component.

[0014] Further, the steps of jumping to the unit cabinet resource library, the structural unit resource library, the component resource library and the functional part resource library step by step for product splicing are as follows: searching in the preset solution pool of the unit cabinet resource library whether there is a preset unit cabinet that meets the requirements; if the requirements are met, the preset unit cabinet is selected; and then, based on the requirements, components of the component resource library and functional parts of the functional part resource library are added step by step on the basis of the preset unit cabinet; if the requirements are not met, jumping to the structural unit resource library of the next level to select structural unit splicing;

[0015] In the structural unit splicing step, check whether there are preset structural units that meet the requirements in the preset solution pool of the structural unit resource library. If the requirements are met, the preset structural units are selected to be spliced ​​into unit cabinets. Afterwards, components of the component resource library and functional parts of the functional part resource library are added step by step based on the spliced ​​unit cabinets according to the requirements. If the requirements are not met, jump to the new structural unit module.

[0016] Furthermore, after selecting a preset unit cabinet or a preset structural unit, jump to the component resource library to select components. According to the requirements, search in the preset solution pool of the component resource library to see if there are preset components that meet the requirements. If the requirements are met, select the preset components and add them to the preset unit cabinet or the spliced ​​unit cabinet. After that, add functional parts based on the requirements. If the requirements are not met, jump to the next level of functional part resource library to select functional parts for splicing.

[0017] Furthermore, after selecting functional parts for splicing or choosing preset components, jump to the functional parts resource library to select functional parts. According to the needs, search in the functional parts preset solution pool to see whether there are preset functional parts that meet the needs. If the needs are met, select the preset functional parts and output the design solution. If not, jump to the new functional parts module.

[0018] Furthermore, it also includes a parts resource library, which is managed by the back-end R&D end, and the front-end design can only call the preset solutions of the finished cabinet resource library, unit cabinet resource library, structural unit resource library, component resource library and functional part resource library.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention include at least:

[0020] The present invention divides customized cabinet products into five levels of resource libraries, and classifies the five levels of resource libraries from top to bottom, and the products of the upper level resource library are composed of the products of the lower level resource library. Each level of resource library can collect excellent design cases and establish a preset solution pool for designers to call from top to bottom, avoiding the inefficient design defects of building design solutions from the bottom up; in addition, by setting calling rules and guiding rules, it can help designers quickly and effectively find design solutions that meet customer needs, greatly reducing the professional skill requirements of designers, and minimizing the time for developing solutions. Moreover, the product parameters of each level of resource library are designed in a unified and standardized manner, which can achieve the purposes of standardization, modularization, and reusability.

However, example embodiments can be implemented in a variety of forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided to make the present invention more comprehensive and complete and to fully convey the concepts of example embodiments to those skilled in the art. The same reference numerals in the figures represent the same or similar structures, and thus their repeated description will be omitted.

[0028] The words expressing position and direction described in the present invention are all explained by taking the accompanying drawings as examples, but they can be changed as needed, and all changes are included in the protection scope of the present invention.

[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, a modular design method for customized cabinets provided by the present invention includes:

[0030] Build a modular cabinet resource library, which includes a finished cabinet resource library, a unit cabinet resource library, a structural unit resource library, a component resource library, and a functional part resource library. The finished cabinet resource library, the unit cabinet resource library, the structural unit resource library, the component resource library, and the functional part resource library are classified from top to bottom, and the product parameters of each level of resource library are designed in a unified and standardized manner. The products of the upper level resource library are composed of the products of the lower level resource library, and each level of resource library includes a preset solution pool; select the corresponding resource library step by step according to the top-down calling rules until a design solution that meets customer needs is selected;

[0031] Establish guidance rules for each level of resource library, and guide designers to search and judge the preset solution pool according to the guidance rules. If the preset solution pool meets the needs, select the preset solution in the preset solution pool. If the preset solution pool does not meet the needs, jump to the next level of resource library;

[0032] According to customer needs, first search from the preset solution pool of the finished cabinet resource library to see if there is a preset finished cabinet that meets the needs. If so, select the preset finished cabinet and output the design solution. If not, you can jump to the unit cabinet resource library, structural unit resource library, component resource library and functional part resource library step by step to splice products until a design solution that meets the needs is output.

[0033] In the present invention, customized cabinet products are divided into five levels of resource libraries, and the five levels of resource libraries are classified step by step from top to bottom, and the products of the upper level resource library are composed of the products of the lower level resource library. Each level of resource library can collect excellent design cases and establish a preset solution pool for designers to call from top to bottom step by step, avoiding the inefficient design defects of building design solutions from the bottom up; in addition, by setting calling rules and guiding rules, it can help designers quickly and effectively find design solutions that meet customer needs, greatly reducing the professional skill requirements of designers, minimizing the time for developing solutions, and the product parameters of each level of resource library are uniformly designed, which can achieve the purpose of standardization, modularization, and reusability. By first searching the finished cabinet resource library to see if there is a design solution that meets the needs, a design solution that meets the needs of customers can be quickly given. If the preset solution pool of the finished cabinet resource library does not meet the needs, a design solution that meets the needs can be obtained by splicing step by step, which not only saves time but also has high flexibility. Therefore, the design method of the present invention achieves the following technical effects:

[0034] (1) For front-end design, it reduces the professional skill requirements of designers, shortens the time to come up with a plan, and improves drawing efficiency.

[0035] (2) For product development, reduce data complexity, achieve standardization, modularization, and reusability, and shorten the R&D cycle.

[0036] (3) For terminal manufacturing, improve processing efficiency, reduce production losses, and save production costs.

[0037] It should be noted that the finished cabinet of the present invention includes a frame, a panel and functional parts. The unit cabinet includes a unit or a plurality of structural units plus a panel, such as a three-row three-door wardrobe; the structural unit includes a frame; the assembly includes a plurality of different functional parts, such as a middle solid layer + a middle vertical board + a clothes trough; the functional parts include a combination of a single or multiple parts or a combination of multiple identical functional parts, such as a door panel, a drawer, a sealing plate, a closing plate, functional hardware, a middle vertical board (including a middle vertical board group), a middle solid layer (including a middle solid layer group), a drawer (including a drawer group), etc. Among them, the categories of the finished cabinets are divided into a secondary catalog according to the eight major spaces of the home (living room, entrance, dining room, kitchen, bedroom, balcony, bathroom, multi-functional room), and a third-level catalog (vertical cabinet, wall cabinet, countertop cabinet, etc.) is set under the secondary catalog according to the cabinet structure, and at the same time, a fuzzy search function by name and a sorting function by name or frequency of use are provided to facilitate design and search.

[0038] As a preferred implementation, the product parameters of each level of resource library include punching rules and size restriction rules. By unifying the punching rules and size restriction rules, standardization, modularization, and reusability can be achieved, thus reducing the R&D cycle.

[0039] As a preferred implementation, when jumping to the structural unit resource library, according to the guidance rules, if no preset solution that meets the requirements is found, jump to the new structural unit module, feedback allows customers to propose new requirements, add new structural units according to the new requirements, and then output the design solution. By adding a new structural unit module, more new structural units can be added to the preset solution pool to enrich the resource library to meet different needs.

[0040] As a preferred implementation, when jumping to the functional component resource library, according to the guidance rules, if no preset solution that meets the requirements is found, jump to the new functional component module, feedback allows customers to propose new requirements, add new functional components according to the new requirements, and then output the design solution. By adding the new functional component module, more new functional components can be added to the preset solution pool to enrich the resource library to meet different needs.

[0041] As a preferred embodiment, the structural unit of the structural unit resource library has an inner empty area, and the components of the component resource library automatically adapt to the inner empty area of ​​the structural unit. The components automatically adapt to the inner empty area of ​​the structural unit, and functional areas can be divided in the structural unit to meet more diversified needs.

[0042] As a preferred implementation, the order of adding functional components to the functional component resource library is: first add the storage functional components in the inner empty area of ​​the structural unit, and then add the panel functional components.

[0043] As a preferred implementation, the steps of jumping to the unit cabinet resource library, the structural unit resource library, the component resource library and the functional part resource library step by step for product splicing are: searching in the preset solution pool of the unit cabinet resource library whether there is a preset unit cabinet that meets the requirements, if the requirements are met, selecting the preset unit cabinet, and then, according to the requirements, adding the components of the component resource library and the functional parts of the functional part resource library step by step on the basis of the preset unit cabinet, if the requirements are not met, jumping to the next level of the structural unit resource library to select the structural unit splicing;

[0044] In the structural unit splicing step, check whether there are preset structural units that meet the requirements in the preset solution pool of the structural unit resource library. If the requirements are met, the preset structural units are selected to be spliced ​​into unit cabinets. Afterwards, components of the component resource library and functional parts of the functional part resource library are added step by step based on the spliced ​​unit cabinets according to the requirements. If the requirements are not met, jump to the new structural unit module.

[0045] In this embodiment, when no preset finished cabinet that meets the requirements is found in the preset solution pool of finished cabinets, products that meet the requirements are selected step by step from the unit cabinet resource library, the structural unit resource library, the component resource library and the functional part resource library for splicing, which has high flexibility and can quickly select a design solution that meets the requirements.

[0046] As a preferred implementation, after selecting a preset unit cabinet or a preset structural unit, jump to the component resource library to select components. According to the requirements, search in the preset solution pool of the component resource library to see whether there are preset components that meet the requirements. If the requirements are met, select the preset components and add them to the preset unit cabinet or the spliced ​​unit cabinet. After that, add functional parts according to the requirements. If the requirements are not met, jump to the next level of functional part resource library to select functional parts for splicing.

[0047] In this embodiment, by setting up a component resource library, the inner space of the structural unit can be flexibly divided into functional areas, and by setting functional component splicing steps, the selection range of functional components can be improved.

[0048] As a preferred implementation, after selecting functional parts for splicing or choosing preset components, jump to the functional parts resource library to select functional parts. According to the needs, search in the functional parts preset solution pool to see whether there are preset functional parts that meet the needs. If the needs are met, select the preset functional parts and output the design solution. If not, jump to the new functional parts module.

[0049] As a preferred implementation, it also includes a parts resource library, which is controlled by the backend R&D end, and the front-end design can only call the preset schemes of the finished cabinet resource library, unit cabinet resource library, structural unit resource library, component resource library and functional component resource library. In the present invention, the part level of the parts resource library is basic hardware or basic panels. If the front-end designer calls it, it is easy to generate a large number of non-standard parts and non-standard punching rules, which is not conducive to factory batch and standardized production.

[0050] See also Figure 2-5 , a design scheme is proposed by calling the products in the unit cabinet resource library, structural unit resource library, component resource library and functional component resource library step by step to assemble them into a design that meets the needs. Figure 2 In the figure, the first unit cabinet 1 is a three-row left-view light unit cabinet. The first unit cabinet 1 that meets the requirement is not found in the unit cabinet preset solution pool. Jump to the preset solution pool in the structural unit resource library to search, and find the first structural unit 2 (single-row cabinet-with top cabinet), the second structural unit 3 (double-row cabinet-with top cabinet) and the third structural unit (double-row cabinet-with top cabinet) that meet the requirement. The first structural unit 2, the second structural unit 3 and the third structural unit are selected and spliced ​​to obtain the form of the first unit cabinet 1. Then, jump to the next level of component resource library. According to the requirement, it is necessary to add the first component 4 (fixed middle solid layer) to the first inner space area 21 (lower end inner space) of the first structural unit 2, and add the second component 5 (preset combined fixed layer board) to the second inner space area 31 (lower left inner space) of the second structural unit 3. Add the third component 6 (movable solid layer) to the third inner space area 32 (lower right inner space) of the third structural unit. After searching in the preset solution pool of the components, the first component 4 that meets the requirement is found. The products of the second component 5 and the third component 6 are selected and adapted to the corresponding inner empty area, and then jump to the functional component resource library. According to the needs, the first functional component 7 (decorative top line), the second functional component 8 (clothing hanging board), the third functional component 9 (9mm cabinet), the fourth functional component 10 (12mm drawer group), the fifth functional component 11 (12mm drawer group-with left drawer side box) and the sixth functional component 12 (square clothing pass) are added in the corresponding positions. After searching in the preset solution pool of the functional components, the first functional component 7 (decorative top line), the second functional component 8 (clothing hanging board), the third functional component 9 (9mm cabinet), the fourth functional component 10 (12mm drawer group), the fifth functional component 11 (12mm drawer group-with left drawer side box) and the sixth functional component 12 (square clothing pass) that meet the needs are found, and the above-mentioned functional components that meet the needs are added to the corresponding functional area positions. After adding the storage functional components, the first panel 13 and the second panel 14 that meet the needs are added accordingly, and the customized cabinet that meets the needs is output.
