Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a translation and rotation device for furniture, household appliances, or a group of furniture and / or household appliances of a modular interior design system for a room as described in the preamble of claim 1, and to a furniture or household appliance element as described in the preamble of claim 3. Background Art

[0002] General furniture or household appliance elements or translation and rotation devices for furniture or household appliances are used to simplify access to hard-to-reach areas in the storage space of furniture or household appliance elements, or are also used for variable arrangement of furniture or household appliances in such groups of furniture and / or household appliances of a modular interior design system for a room, or for variably positioning the group of furniture and / or household appliances as a whole in the room.

[0003] The simultaneous translation and rotation movement of furniture or household appliance elements or such translation and rotation devices is achieved by arranging a translation and rotation fitting between a first body of the furniture and a second body of the furniture that can move relative to the first body. Alternatively, the relative movement can also occur between the movable body of the furniture and the ceiling and / or floor of the room.

[0004] In the translation and rotation device, the translation and rotation movement is achieved, for example, by a guide cam track in a support area of a base and a support element arranged thereon, where the group of furniture and / or household appliances is placed on the support element.

[0005] Such a general translation and rotation device is known, for example, from WO 2021 / 001395 A1 or WO 2020 / 212373 A1.

[0006] The problem with such components that can move relative to each other lies in supplying electrical energy to electrical equipment housed in the support element or the second body that moves translationally and rotationally. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The object of the present invention is to further develop a translation and rotation device for furniture, or household appliances, or a group of furniture and / or household appliances of a modular interior design system for a room, and a furniture or household appliance element, such that they can be equipped with a power supply in a simple manner in a support element or a second body that moves translationally and rotationally.

[0008] This object is solved by a translation and rotation device for furniture, household appliances or a group of furniture and / or household appliances of a modular interior design system for a room having the features of claim 1 and by a furniture or household appliance element having the features of claim 3.

[0009] The translation and rotation device of a piece of furniture, a household appliance or a group of furniture and / or household appliances for a modular interior design system for a room according to the invention has a base and a support element, which have planar bearing areas facing each other.

[0010] The support element is mounted such that it is at least partially movable in translation and in rotation relative to the base.

[0011] A guide cam track is arranged in one of the support areas and a guide element guided in or on the profile of the guide cam track is arranged in the other of the support areas, so that the support element can be rotated relative to the base in one of two possible opposite rotational directions, is at least partially forcibly guided, and can be moved in a predetermined translational direction.

[0012] The guide cam track is shaped so that when a torque is applied to the support element, the support element can move from an initial position via an intermediate position, in which the support element is rotated in one of two possible opposite rotational directions relative to the base and shifted in a translational direction, and the support element enters a terminal position consistent with the initial position by further rotating in said one of the two possible opposite rotational directions and shifting against the translational direction.

[0013] The guide groove extending along the translation direction is arranged in the base. The guide element protruding into the guide groove is arranged on the bearing area of ​​the support element. Alternatively, the guide groove can also be arranged in the bearing area of ​​the support element and the guide element is in the base.

[0014] The guide element is designed as a rotary feed-through.

[0015] The first power connection element is attached to a side of the base facing away from the support area of ​​the base, and the second power connection element is attached to a side of the support element facing away from the support area of ​​the support element.

[0016] The power connection elements are connected to each other via a power cable fed through a rotary feed-through.

[0017] The furniture or household appliance element according to the invention has a first body and a second body which is movable relative to the first body.

[0018] Furthermore, the furniture or household appliance element has a translational and rotational attachment, by means of which the second body can be moved relative to the first body in a predetermined translational direction and at least partially simultaneously in one of two possible opposite rotational directions.

[0019] The translational and rotational fitting has a first fitting plate coupled to a first body and a second fitting plate coupled to a second body, and the second fitting plate can move translationally and rotationally at least partially relative to the first fitting plate simultaneously.

[0020] In the closed position of the second body, in the overlapping area between the base plate or cover plate of the first body and the second body, a groove is provided in the base plate or cover plate of the first body, and a power cable passes through the groove. The power cable is connected to a power connection element at the first end, and the power connection element is attached to the side of the second body facing the base plate or cover plate of the first body. The groove can also be in the form of a hole.

[0021] Whether it is a translational and rotational device or a furniture or household appliance element, the above device ensures a simple power supply for the electrical load located or placed inside the second body that can move translationally and rotationally, or above or within the support element.

[0022] In addition to the conventional first body with a base plate, a cover plate and at least one side wall for supporting the body, the second body that is at least partially installed for translational and rotational movements can be directly fixed to the room wall only via the base plate and cover plate forming the first body.

[0023] Advantageous embodiments of the present invention are the subject matter of the dependent claims.

[0024] According to an advantageous embodiment of the device of the present invention, the first power connection element is attached to the base on one side of the guiding groove, and when observed in the longitudinal direction of the guiding groove, the first power connection element is substantially parallelly offset about the center.

[0025] This positioning of the first power connection element makes the distance change between the first power connection element and the guiding sleeve for translational movement as small as possible.

[0026] According to an advantageous embodiment of the furniture or household appliance element of the present invention, the groove has a through hole, a trough-shaped cable channel opening towards the second body, and a flat groove adjacent to the cable channel and opening towards the second body.

[0027] According to an alternative embodiment of the furniture or household appliance element of the present invention, the groove is designed as a guiding groove for guiding the power cable.

[0028] According to another alternative embodiment of the furniture or household appliance element of the present invention, the groove is designed as a hole.

[0029] All variants ensure that the power cable can move with the translational and rotational movement of the second body without getting stuck in the area of the groove.

[0030] According to another preferred embodiment of the device or furniture or household appliance component, at least one of the power connection elements has a winding mechanism, which has a cable storage area, and during the translational and rotational movement of the second body or the support element, a section of the power cable can be wound or unwound on the cable storage area.

[0031] Such a winding mechanism also prevents the power cable from getting stuck or knotted during the movement of the second body or the support element.

[0032] According to an alternative embodiment, the power cable is designed to be at least partially a helical cable or a cable loop, and thus can achieve the linear expansion of the power cable required especially for translational movement.

[0033] According to another advantageous design variant, the power cable is at least partially guided in an energy chain.

[0034] This also protects the power cable from being squeezed or the like during the movement of components that can move relative to each other. Description of the Drawings

[0052] In the following description of the drawings, terms such as top, bottom, left, right, front, back, etc. specifically refer to the exemplary representations and positions of furniture or home appliance components, translational and rotational fittings, bases, support elements, first bodies, second bodies, etc. selected in the corresponding drawings. These terms should not be understood restrictively, i.e., these references may change due to different working positions or mirror-symmetrical designs, etc.

[0053] Hereinafter, reference will be made to Figures 1 to 8 an embodiment of a translational and rotational device for furniture, home appliances, or a group of furniture and / or home appliances 11 of a modular interior design system for a room according to the present invention.

[0054] Additionally Figures 9 to 16 to explain another embodiment of a furniture or home appliance component 100 according to the present invention.

[0055] Figure 8 Such a group of furniture and / or home appliances 11 of a modular interior design system for a room is shown by way of example in

[0056] As can be seen herein, the entire group of furniture and / or home appliances 11 is placed on a support element 3, which is mounted on a base 2.

[0057] As an example of the furniture group 11, Figure 8 a shelf 12, a chair 13, and a table 14 located on the support element 3 are shown. By means of the translational and rotational movement of the support element 3 relative to the base 2, the furniture group 11 can be calibrated within the room, for example, rotated by an angle of 90°.

[0058] As Figures 1 to 7 shown, the base 2 and the support element 3 have flat bearing areas 21, 31 facing each other. As described above, the support element 3 is mounted such that it can move both translationally and rotationally relative to the base 2.

[0059] For this purpose, a guide cam track 22 is arranged in one of the bearing areas 21, 31 of the base 2 or the support element 3, and a guide element 4 guided within or along the contour of the guide cam track 22 is arranged in the other of the bearing areas 21, 31.

[0060] This allows the support element 3 to be at least partially forced-guided relative to the base 2, such that the support element can rotate in one of two possible opposite rotational directions R1, R2 and move in a predetermined translational direction A.

[0061] The movement along the translational direction A is additionally guided by a guide groove 23 extending in the translational direction A in the base 2 and a guide element protruding into the guide groove 23 at the bearing area 31 of the support element 3. The guide element is designed as a rotary feed-through 5.

[0062] Furthermore, the guide cam track 22 is shaped such that when torque is applied to the support element 3, the support element 3 moves from an initial position via an intermediate position, in which the support element 3 rotates relative to the base 2 in one of two possible opposite rotational directions R1, R2 and is displaced in a translational direction A, and the support element enters a termination position that coincides with the initial position by further rotating in one of the two possible opposite rotational directions R1, R2 and displacing against the translational direction A.

[0063] To be able to supply power to furniture and / or household appliances arranged on the support element 3 or to power-consuming products arranged above or within these furniture and / or household appliances, a first electrical connection element 6 is attached to the side of the base 2 facing away from the support element 3, and a second electrical connection element 7 is attached to the upper side of the support element 3 facing away from the base 2.

[0064] The two electrical connection elements 6, 7 are connected to each other via a power cable 8 passing through the rotary feedthrough 5. The power cable 8 is guided through a preferably cylindrical through-hole 51 of the rotary feedthrough 5, which forms a passage for the power cable from the side of the base 2 facing away from the support element 3 to the upper side of the support element 3 facing away from the base 2.

[0065] As Figures 2 to 7 Further shown, the first electrical connection element 6 is preferably connected to another electrical connection element 10 via another power cable 9, and the electrical connection element 10 is designed, for example, as a socket on a wall or floor of a room.

[0066] Figures 3 to 7 The translational and rotational movement of the support element 3 relative to the base 2 is shown, by means of which a furniture set 11 (as Figure 8 shown by way of example) can be positioned relative to the base 2 at a deviation of 90°.

[0067] By guiding the power cable 8 through the through-hole 51 of the rotary feedthrough 5, the cable can be laid even during the translational and rotational movement of the support element 3 relative to the base 2, and the cable reliably connects the electrical connection elements 6, 7 arranged on the base 2 on the one hand and on the support element 3 on the other hand.

[0068] The power cable 8 is preferably designed as a spiral cable.

[0069] Alternatively, it is also conceivable to drag the power cable 8 together with the support element 3 in a translational and rotational movement relative to the base 2.

[0070] As shown by Figures 3 to 7As shown by the different positioning of the middle support element 3 relative to the base 2, the first electrical connection element 6 attached to the base 2 is suitably arranged on one side of the guide groove 23 and is substantially offset parallel to the center when viewed in the longitudinal direction of the guide groove 23, allowing only a slight change in the length of the power cable 8 required to bridge the distance between the first electrical connection element 6 and the rotary feedthrough 5.

[0071] The distance between the rotary feedthrough 5 and the second electrical connection element 7 is in any case determined by the distance between the second electrical connection element 7 and the rotary feedthrough 5 which is also fixed to the support element 3.

[0072] Since the power cable 8 is guided through the through-hole 51 of the rotary feedthrough 5, the guiding of the support element 3 on the base 2 via the guiding cam track 22 and the guiding element 4 guided along or within the guiding cam track will not be impaired by the power cable 8.

[0073] Figures 9 to 16 An embodiment of a furniture or household appliance element 100 according to the present invention is shown.

[0074] The furniture or household appliance element 100 has a first body 110 and a second body 120 which can move relative to the first body. As Figure 10 can be seen, the second body 120 is here exemplarily designed as a shelf with an intermediate shelf, the shelf being enclosed on both sides by side walls, and the second body being mounted next to the fixed first body 110 so as to be able to move relative to the first body in a translational and rotational manner by means of a translational-rotational fitting 130.

[0075] In the exemplary embodiment shown, a cover plate 150 is located above the first body 110, which cover plate also covers the second body 120, and a translational-rotational fitting 130 for moving the second body 120 is also arranged on the cover plate.

[0076] The translational-rotational fitting 130 can move relative to the first body 110 in a predetermined translational direction A and at the same time move in one of two possible opposite rotational directions R1, R2.

[0077] The translational-rotational fitting 130 has a first fitting plate 131 connected to the first body 110 and a second fitting plate 132 connected to the second body 120, and can move relative to the first fitting plate 131 in a translational and rotational manner at the same time.

[0078] Here, in the closed position of the second body 120, the groove 160 is provided in the base plate 140 or the cover plate 150 of the first body 110 for supplying power to the power-consuming product arranged above or within the second body 120 in the overlapping area between the base plate 140 or the cover plate 150 (in this case, the base plate 140 of the first body 110) and the second body 120.

[0079] In the illustrated exemplary embodiment, the groove 160 is located in the base plate 140 of the first body 110. The power cable 101 passes through the groove 160, and the power cable is connected to the power connection element 170 at the first end, and the power connection element is fastened to the side of the second body 120 facing the base plate or the cover plate 140, 150 of the first body 110.

[0080] Specifically as Figure 9 shown, the groove 160 provided in the base plate 140 here has a through hole 161, a groove-shaped cable channel 162 leading to the second body 120, and a flat groove 163 adjacent to the cable channel 162 and leading to the second body 120.

[0081] Figures 14 to 16 Shows three positioning positions ( Figure 14 the initial position in Figure 15 the intermediate position in Figure 16 the final position in) of the translation-rotation fitting 130 mounted on the base plate 140 of the first body 110 during the translation-rotation movement.

[0082] In all the positioning positions of the translation-rotation fitting 130, during the movement of the second fitting plate 132 of the translation-rotation fitting 130, the part of the power cable 101 led out from the power connection element 170 is located in the flat groove 163.

[0083] This prevents a section of the power cable 101 from being stuck due to passing through the second fitting plate 132 that moves relative to the base plate 140.

[0084] Here, the second fitting plate 132 of the translation-rotation fitting 130 shown as an example rotates relative to the first fitting plate 131 on the one hand, and at the same time can be displaced along the translation direction A via the track guide 134.

[0085] Here, the cam track 133 attached to the base 121 of the second body 120 through the second fitting plate 132 is used to guide the translation and rotation movements of the second body 120 relative to the first body 110.

[0086] Setting the groove 160 in the base plate 140 or the cover plate 150 of the first body 110 thus also enables the power cable to be guided in the area between the first body 110 and the second body 120, where the translation-rotation fitting 130 is also arranged.

[0087] With the furniture or household appliance component 100, the power cable 101 can also be at least partially formed as a coiled cable or a cable loop.

[0088] A part of the power cable 101 is preferably wound using a winding mechanism, which is preferably formed as part of the power connection element 170, as Figure 11a and Figure 11b shown.

[0089] Figure 11a Shows that when the power cable 101 is mostly unwound, the power connection element 170 has an approximately cylindrical winding body and a cable storage area 172 located on the outer sheath surface of the winding body 171.

[0090] Figure 11b Shows the power connection element 170, where a section of the power cable 101 is wound in the cable storage area 172.

[0091] As Figure 10 shown, the height of the power connection element 170 is preferably such that its overall height is slightly lower than the overall height of the translational and rotational fitting 130, so that the power connection element 170 fixed to the base 121 of the second body 120 slides on the surface of the substrate 140 without contact during the translational and rotational movements of the second body 120.

[0092] As Figure 12 shown, the power connection element 170 may also include a central plug connector for receiving the plug 103 passing through the opening in the base 121 of the second body 120.

[0093] The second element of the power cable 108 passing through the through - hole 161 of the groove 160 in the substrate 140 of the first body 110 can also be directly connected to a socket on the room floor or wall, or as Figure 12 shown, can also be coupled to the plug 102.

[0094] It is also conceivable here to use an energy chain 180 to additionally protect sections of the power cable 101.

[0095] In addition to the flat groove 160 specifically provided in the substrate 140 as Figure 9 shown, it is also conceivable to form the groove as a guide groove for guiding the power cable 101, as Figure 17a 、 Figure 17b 、 Figure 18a and Figure 18b shown. Figure 17a Shows the position of the translational and rotational fitting 130 corresponding to Figure 14 relative, Figure 17bshows the position where the power cable 101 protrudes downward from the substrate 140 of the first body 110 (viewed from below), while Figure 18a and Figure 18b shows the position of the translational-rotational fitting 130 corresponding to Figure 16 and the corresponding position where the power cable 101 protrudes downward from the substrate 140 of the first body 110.
