[0025] Example 1

[0026] See also Figures 1 to 3 , which is a schematic diagram of a unit component, a unit component connection mechanism, and modular assembled furniture provided by the present invention. The unit component comprises: an independent body 10, at least one wall portion of which is provided with a unit component connection hole 11 communicating with the cavity, and an expansion structure provided within the independent body 10 or on the outer wall of the independent body 10. It is conceivable that the unit component also involves other functional component specific structures, such as component materials, basic mounting structure, etc., which are all well known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here.

[0027] The independent body 10 is either square or trapezoidal. In this embodiment, the independent body 10 is square. The flat surface of the independent body 10 facilitates stable bottom support and the installation of external expansion structures. It also facilitates the jointing of multiple independent bodies 10 in the assembled furniture described below, improving the smoothness of the assembled pieces. The independent body 10 has a cavity within it to facilitate the installation of the assembly components 20 and also serves as a storage space.

[0028] At least one wall portion of the independent main body 10 is provided with a unit component connection hole 11 which is set through and connected to the cavity. In this embodiment, each wall portion of the independent main body 10 is preset with a unit component connection hole 11. The unit component connection hole 11 is used for installing the assembly component 20, and the unit component connection hole 11 is located at the center position of a single side surface of the independent main body 10. This structure has strong versatility and is convenient for universal matching during subsequent assembly of furniture.

[0029] The extended structure is the embodiment of the functions of the unit components.

[0030] See also Figure 2 , wheels 60 can also be provided at the bottom of the independent main body 10 to enable the unit component to have a displacement function and be used as a storage box with a mobile function.

[0031] When the function is expanded on the outside of the independent main body 10, a seat cushion 40 is provided on one side of the independent main body 10, and the seat cushion 40 is fixedly connected to the limiting panel 22 on the same side. The seat cushion 40 and the independent main body 10 are detachably connected. The seat cushion 40 is combined with the unit components to form the functional embodiment of the sofa stool.

[0032] In other embodiments, a table top, a chair seat, a shelf, or the like may also be provided on one side of the independent main body 10 .

[0033] See also Figure 6 When expanding the functionality of the independent body 10, an opening 13 is provided on at least one side of the independent body 10. The opening 13 facilitates the installation of the assembly components 20 and forms an exposed storage space. More optimally, a baffle 30 can be hingedly connected to one side of the independent body 10 located at the opening 13 to close the opening 13, allowing the internal cavity of the independent body 10 to serve as a closed storage box.

[0034] In actual use, the material of the independent body 10 includes metal material or non-metal material. Figure 3 When the function is expanded inside the independent body 10, the independent body 10 is made of transparent material or light-transmitting material, such as acrylic, glass material, and a lighting structure 50 is provided inside the independent body 10. The transparent independent body 10 can be used as a lampshade, and the lighting structure 50 is an LED lamp and is installed on the inner wall of the independent body 10. The lighting structure 50 is connected to an external power supply or a photovoltaic panel.

[0035] In other embodiments, partitions may be provided inside the independent main body 10 to form a detachable storage space.

[0036] The assembly of components of this unit is stable and reliable, which improves the practicality of functional expansion.

[0037] Example 2

[0038] See also Figures 4 to 6The present invention also provides a connection mechanism for unit components. The connection mechanism includes at least two unit components. Two adjacent unit components are connected by an assembly component 20. In actual use, it is not necessary to match the assembly component 20 in all the unit component connection holes 11. It can be installed on the required plane of the independent main body 10 according to needs. Specifically, the assembly component 20 includes a contoured positioning block 21 embedded in the unit component connection hole 11. The outer wall of the contoured positioning block 21 fits with the inner wall of the unit component connection hole 11. The contoured positioning block 21 closes the unit component connection hole 11 and realizes the installation fulcrum of the assembly component 20 on the surface of the independent main body 10. The cross-sectional shape of the unit component connection hole 11 includes any one of a polygon and an ellipse. The polygon is not limited to a conventional triangle, quadrilateral, etc. The structure of the contoured positioning block 21 corresponds to and matches the unit component connection hole 11. It is contemplated that the unit component connection hole 11 may also have other special shapes. Specifically, the edge of the unit component connection hole 11 may be provided with a positioning notch, and the outer wall of the contoured positioning block 21 may be provided with a corresponding positioning protrusion that fits into the positioning notch, thereby supplementing the aforementioned conventional polygonal, elliptical, or other shapes. In this embodiment, both the unit component connection hole 11 and the contoured positioning block 21 are rectangular, providing a more compact and reliable installation structure and preventing circumferential rotation of the assembly component 20 when installed in the unit component connection hole 11.

[0039] The two ends of the profiling block 21 are rotatably connected to limit panels 22, which are connected to the profiling block 21 by an axis. In this embodiment, the limit panels 22 at both ends are connected to the profiling block 21 by the same axis and rotate synchronously. The limit panels 22 are shaped like the cross-sectional shape of the unit component connection hole. In this embodiment, the limit panels 22 are also rectangular blocks. Initially, the peripheral edges of the limit panels 22 are located inside the circumferential edges of the profiling block 21. During installation, the limit panels 22 can axially pass through the unit component connection hole 11. After the profiling block 21 is firmly installed, the limit panels 22 at both ends are twisted to cause an angular offset, so that the limit panels 22 rotate relative to the profiling block 21 and then abut against the corresponding limit surfaces 12. That is, the limit panels 22 axially abut against the circumferential edges of the unit component connection hole 11, forming an axial locking of the assembly 20 at the unit component connection hole 11, thereby enhancing the installation reliability of the assembly 20 on the independent body 10. More optimally, in order to ensure the tightness of the assembly component 20, a cushion is provided at the end of the limiting panel 22 close to the positioning. During the rotation of the limiting panel 22, the cushion on the limiting panel 22 elastically fits against the inner wall of the independent body 10.

[0040] It can be imagined that the connection mechanism of the unit components is not limited to conventional structures such as office desks, bar tables, sofas, and display racks. Specifically, the outer walls of the independent main bodies 10 in two adjacent unit components are axially connected, and can be connected and assembled through multiple unit components to achieve the size of the assembled furniture according to their own needs. The overall versatility is strong, and the user's assembly freedom is increased. During the assembly process, the two wall portions of the two adjacent independent main bodies 10 lean against each other, and the contoured positioning blocks 21 are sequentially embedded in the unit component connection holes 11 of the two independent main bodies 10, and the limiting panel 22 rotates and abuts against the circumferential limiting surface 12 of the unit component connection hole 11. In this embodiment, the distance between the two limiting panels 22 is equal to or greater than the sum of the wall thicknesses of the two wall portions. Ensure that a single assembly component 20 can achieve the connection of the corresponding surfaces of adjacent unit components.
