Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of office furniture, in particular to the technical field of a steel-wood combined supporting structure and an applied desk. Background Art

[0002] In high-end office spaces, large-panel boss desks tend to use large solid wood panels with a natural look to create a spacious and open working environment. However, in order to coordinate the overall viewing proportions of the large panel, its thickness can reach about 5 cm. This design also brings new challenges, especially for the panel weight and support structure.

[0003] As for the supporting structure, the traditional design of the boss desk is to set two storage boxes at both ends of the table top, such as the boss desk disclosed in Chinese patent CN205125466U, that is, to use side cabinets for support. However, this design takes up space and lacks a sense of spaciousness when used.

[0004] In contrast, for example, Chinese patent CN200962971Y discloses a steel-wood structure combined desk that uses steel support legs to maintain the heaviness of the wooden desk. However, this single support leg has relatively poor bearing capacity when subjected to shear force.

[0005] Overall, existing methods often sacrifice product aesthetics and space utilization or functionality, and cannot fully meet the demand for harmonious unity of function and form in modern office environments. Summary of the invention

[0006] In view of the above problems, the present invention proposes a steel-wood combined support structure of an office desk and an office desk solution for its application, which adopts a "wood-wrapped steel" structure, that is, while maintaining the texture of wood in appearance, steel is embedded inside to form a support system that is both beautiful and stable.

[0007] To achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0008] A steel-wood combined support structure, comprising a steel support, wherein the steel support comprises a support panel in contact with the bottom surface of the desk table, support legs arranged on the left and right sides of the support panel, and a plurality of cross bars arranged between the support legs;

[0009] The support leg is provided with a leg column portion and a cross beam portion extending horizontally along the side of the support panel at the upper end of the leg column portion, and the leg column portion and the cross beam portion are integrally formed;

[0010] It also includes a wooden core material that encapsulates the steel bracket and decorative curved plates that are attached to the front and back sides of the wooden core material.

[0011] Compared with the existing technology, this case uses wood core material to encapsulate the high-strength steel bracket, which not only effectively reduces the overall weight, but also greatly enhances the load-bearing capacity and anti-deformation performance of the table. At the same time, this design uses wood core material to encapsulate the entire steel bracket, which can ensure the smooth and flawless surface of the table legs and the smooth lines of the beautiful effect, while also playing an effective anti-collision function for the steel bracket, thereby overcoming the defects of the traditional boss desk such as unstable structure and bulky appearance, providing users with a more ideal office furniture choice.

[0012] In some embodiments, the support legs, support panels and cross bars of the steel bracket are connected by welding.

[0013] In some embodiments, the wooden core material includes a first core material encapsulating the supporting legs, a plurality of second core materials disposed between the first core materials, and a third core material disposed at the bottom of the first core material and spanning across the first core materials on both sides to abut against the ground.

[0014] In some embodiments, the leg portion is provided with a countersunk hole at a position corresponding to the second core material.

[0015] In some embodiments, the leg portion and the cross beam portion are provided with a support angle, and the third core material is provided with an oblique angle that is the same as the support angle.

[0016] In a preferred embodiment, the support angle ranges from 100 to 120°.

[0017] In a preferred embodiment, the leg column portion and the cross beam portion are connected in an arc-shaped smooth transition, and the lower end surface of the cross beam portion is tangent to the arc and extends toward the top.

[0018] In some embodiments, the first core material includes an encapsulation portion that encapsulates the supporting leg and an outer auxiliary supporting portion.

[0019] In a preferred embodiment, the width of the auxiliary support portion is wider than the width of the encapsulation portion.

[0020] In some embodiments, the office desk adopts the steel-wood combination support structure as described above at least at one end. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0029] The features of the present invention and other related features are further described in detail below through embodiments to facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art:

[0030] It should be noted that the words "front", "back", "left" and "right" used in the following description refer to directions in the accompanying drawings, and the words "bottom" and "top", "inside" and "outside" respectively refer to directions toward or away from the geometric center of a specific component.

[0031] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown in the figure, the office desk used in this case is a large solid wood panel boss desk, which is characterized by a large width of more than 2 meters. And there is a texture requirement for the panel thickness, which can reach about 5mm. As explained in the background technology, conventional support structures cannot meet the requirements for heavier panels.

[0032] Therefore, it is necessary to use a steel-wood combined support structure 100 of the present invention as its support. The steel-wood combined support structure 100 of the present invention can be used at one end and supported by a side cabinet 200 at the other end, or both ends can be supported by the steel-wood combined support structure 100 of the present invention. This overcomes the defects of the traditional boss desk such as unstable structure and bulky appearance. It also avoids the feeling of crowding caused by two traditional side cabinets.

[0033] The following is a detailed description of the steel-wood combined support structure 100, please refer to Figure 2. A steel-wood combined support structure 100 in this case includes a steel bracket 110 and a wooden core material 120 that encapsulates the steel plate bracket 110, and a decorative bent plate 130 attached to the front and back of the wooden core material 120. The decorative bent plate 130 mainly serves an aesthetic purpose, and also has a certain rigidity to provide auxiliary support and meet the accessory installation requirements of the mounting bolts. Therefore, the number of mounting plates can be increased as needed. For example, in this embodiment, one piece is installed on the front as an appearance part, and two pieces are installed on the back for their supporting function. Finally, the edging process is performed. There are many ways to edging, which are commonly used technical means in the industry and will not be described in detail.

[0034] In this way, this design uses the wooden core material 120 to encapsulate the entire steel bracket 110, which effectively reduces the overall weight compared to pure steel support. It can also ensure that the surface of the table legs is smooth and flawless, and the lines are smooth and beautiful, while playing an effective anti-collision role for the steel bracket 110. The main supporting structure is steel, which greatly enhances the load-bearing capacity and anti-deformation performance of the table, thereby overcoming the defects of the traditional boss desk such as unstable structure and bulky appearance. Overall, it provides users with a more ideal office furniture choice.

[0035] The steel bracket 110 is described in detail below. Figure 4 The steel bracket 110 includes a support panel 111 in contact with the bottom of the desk surface, that is, the steel bracket 110 and the desk surface are in surface contact through the support panel 111, and the force is more uniform than that of a single bracket.

[0036] Support legs 112 are provided on the left and right sides of the support panel 111, and a plurality of cross bars 113 are provided between the support legs 112 on both sides. The support legs 112 are provided with leg column parts 114 as pillars and cross beam parts 115 extending horizontally along the side of the support panel 111 at the upper ends of the leg column parts 114. That is, the upper ends of the cross beam parts 115 are parallel to the support panel 111, and they play a surface contact function with the table top together with the support panel 111.

[0037] In some preferred embodiments, the leg column portion 114 and the cross beam portion 115 are provided with a support angle R1, and the support angle R1 ranges from 100 to 120 degrees.

[0038] In order to improve integrity and firmness, the leg column portion 114 and the cross beam portion 115 are integrally formed, and another advantage of integrally forming is that it has good ductility and resilience. In a preferred embodiment, the leg column portion 114 and the cross beam portion 115 are connected by a smooth arc transition, and the lower end surface of the cross beam portion 115 can also be interpreted as the end surface facing downward during installation, which is tangent to the arc and extends toward the top.

[0039] At this time, the design of the arc-shaped smooth transition connection and the crossbeam portion 115 tangent to it can make full use of the ductility and rebound deformation ability of the one-piece molding. As a counterexample, when this structure is a commonly used right-angle welding connection, when it is subjected to intermittent impact force at the table top, the repeated stress at the connection has the hidden danger of causing irreversible fatigue deformation. However, the design of this case, when subjected to force, its design that is tangent to the arc will inevitably make its end face away from the arc of the crossbeam portion 115 relatively thinner, so it deforms first, which can protect the connection and avoid fatigue deformation of the connection. It can also use its own ductility and rebound deformation ability to recover, that is, it provides a gradual protection for the support. For its installation effect, please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 .

[0040] In addition, for the convenience of processing and firmness, the support legs 112, the support panel 111 and the crossbar 113 of the steel bracket 110 can be connected by welding. The welding points of the support panel 111 and the support legs 112 can be polished and leveled.

[0041] For the wooden core material 120 corresponding to the steel support 110, please refer to Figure 5 Specifically, the wooden core material 120 includes a first core material 121 encapsulating the support leg 112. Encapsulation as mentioned above means encapsulating the support leg 112 from at least three sides, which is three sides in this embodiment. Of course, a design of fully encapsulating two sides or four sides can be selected according to conditions.

[0042] The wood core material 120 further includes a plurality of second core materials 122 disposed between the first core materials 121. Figure 2 In order to install the second core material 122 , a countersunk hole 40 is provided at a position of the leg column portion 114 corresponding to the second core material 122 . The countersunk hole 40 is provided on the outer side of the leg column portion 114 .

[0043] Please continue to refer to Figure 5 The wooden core material 120 also includes a third core material 123 disposed at the bottom of the first core material 121 and spanning the first core materials 121 on both sides and abutting against the ground. Figure 6 In order to make the third core material 123 contact the ground stably, an oblique angle R2 which is the same as the supporting angle R1 is provided on the third core material 123.

[0044] Please continue to refer to Figure 5In some embodiments, the first core material 121 includes a bag portion 211 that bags the support leg 112 and an auxiliary support portion 212 outside the bag portion 211. Furthermore, the width of the auxiliary support portion 212 is wider than that of the bag portion 211. In this way, because the first core material 121 is also made of a whole block of wood, it also has good ductility and resilience deformation ability. Taking advantage of this feature, the auxiliary support portion 212, which is usually less stressed, is designed to be wider than the bag portion 211, and its rebound is used to further provide support and protection.

[0045] As mentioned above, this case protects a steel-wood combined support structure and an office desk used therein. All technical solutions that are identical or similar to those in this case should be deemed to fall within the protection scope of this case.
