[0026] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a furniture cabinet and its felt structure provided in an embodiment of this utility model; Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the felt body's downward angle for the felt structure provided in this embodiment of the utility model; Figure 3 An exploded view of the felt body of the felt structure provided in an embodiment of this utility model; Figure 4 A schematic diagram of a furniture cabinet and its seal provided for an embodiment of this utility model.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides a felt structure comprising: a felt body 10, the surface of which is provided with a plurality of grooves 20, the grooves 20 being spaced apart along a preset direction, the extending direction of the grooves 20 being perpendicular to the preset direction, and the depth of the grooves 20 being less than the thickness of the felt body 10, so that the felt body 10 can be bent along the preset direction.

[0028] In this embodiment, the main function of the grooves 20 on the surface of the felt body 10 is to cut off some of the fibers on the surface of the felt body 10. Simultaneously, because the depth of the grooves 20 is less than the thickness of the felt body 10, the fibers below the bottom of the grooves 20 remain intact, thus giving the felt body 10 a bendable characteristic. By creating multiple grooves 20 on the surface of the felt body 10 and distributing these grooves 20 evenly at a certain interval, the felt body 10 can achieve good bending performance.

[0029] Because the groove 20 only cuts the fibers on the surface of the felt body 10 without penetrating the entire thickness of the felt body 10, this design allows the felt body 10 to achieve bending performance while still maintaining good overall strength and stability.

[0030] When the felt body 10 needs to be bent in a predetermined direction, the bending resistance of the surface of the felt body 10 is significantly reduced due to the presence of the grooves 20. The felt material between the grooves 20 will deform, while the retained intermediate fibers provide the necessary flexibility to ensure that the overall structure remains stable under bending conditions. This structural design allows the felt body 10 to achieve different degrees of bending according to actual needs while maintaining a good shape.

[0031] Through the above embodiments, the felt structure successfully solves the technical problem of the lack of bending performance of traditional felt, enabling the felt structure to obtain controllable bending ability while maintaining its original excellent properties, thus expanding the application range of felt structure.

[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, in one specific embodiment, the preset direction is the length direction of the felt body 10. Multiple grooves 20 are spaced apart along the length direction of the felt body 10, with each groove 20 extending perpendicular to the length direction. This arrangement is primarily based on the following consideration: when the felt structure is installed on the cabinet 30, it typically needs to be bent along its length to conform to the shape of the cabinet 30's surface. For example, for a cabinet 30 with a horizontal curvature, the felt body 10 needs to be bent along its length to fit the surface of the cabinet 30. By arranging the grooves 20 perpendicular to the length direction, the bending resistance of the felt body 10 in this direction can be effectively reduced, allowing it to naturally bend and deform along its length.

[0033] In another specific embodiment, the preset direction is the height direction of the felt body 10. In this case, multiple grooves 20 are distributed at intervals along the height direction of the felt body 10, and the extension direction of the grooves 20 is perpendicular to the height direction (i.e., parallel to the length direction). This arrangement is suitable for scenarios where bending in the vertical direction is required, such as when the cabinet 30 has a vertical curvature. With this arrangement, the felt structure can bend and deform along its height direction, and can also adapt well to the shape of the cabinet 30 surface.

[0034] As shown in FIG. 1, in an embodiment, the felt body 10 has a first surface 11 and a second surface 12 oppositely arranged, and both the first surface 11 and the second surface 12 are provided with grooves 20. Figure 1 Figure 2 As shown in FIG. 1, in an embodiment, the felt body 10 has a first surface 11 and a second surface 12 oppositely arranged, and both the first surface 11 and the second surface 12 are provided with grooves 20.

[0035] In the embodiment, the side of the felt body 10 close to the cabinet body 30 is defined as the first surface 11, and the side away from the cabinet body 30 is defined as the second surface 12. The structure of arranging the grooves 20 on both sides is mainly to make the felt structure better meet the needs of opening and closing the door when the felt structure is used as a cabinet door.

[0036] When the felt structure needs to be closed, the felt body 10 needs to be bent inward (i.e. bent towards the inside of the cabinet body 30) to fit the surface of the cabinet body 30, at this time, the grooves 20 on the first surface 11 (i.e. the side close to the cabinet body 30) cut off the fibers on the inner side surface to reduce the bending resistance on the inner side, so that the inward bending is easier to achieve. When the felt structure needs to be opened, the felt body 10 needs to be bent outward (i.e. bent towards the outside of the cabinet body 30) to separate from the surface of the cabinet body 30, at this time, the grooves 20 on the second surface 12 (i.e. the side away from the cabinet body 30) cut off the fibers on the outer side surface to reduce the bending resistance on the outer side, so that the outward bending becomes easy. Here, the surface of the cabinet body 30 is an arc surface.

[0037] The design of arranging the grooves 20 on both sides makes the felt body 10 be able to flexibly realize bidirectional bending according to the needs of opening and closing the door. It is due to the grooves 20 arranged on both opposite surfaces that the felt structure can obtain good bending effect when performing inward bending and outward bending. At the same time, since the depth of the grooves 20 is still controlled within the range of less than the thickness of the felt body 10, the bidirectional bending function is realized while ensuring that the felt structure has sufficient strength and stability.

[0038] By arranging the grooves 20 on both surfaces of the felt body 10, not only the limitations of the felt structure when bending in a single direction are solved, but also the felt structure can realize more flexible deformation according to actual use requirements, improving the practicality and applicability of the felt structure.

[0039] Further, the grooves 20 on the first surface 11 and the second surface 12 can adopt the same design parameters, such as the same depth, width and spacing, etc., so as to ensure that the bending performance of the felt structure in both directions remains consistent. Of course, according to specific application requirements, the groove 20 parameters of the two surfaces can also be designed differently to meet specific use requirements.

[0040] As shown in FIG. 1, in an embodiment, the felt body 10 has a first surface 11 and a second surface 12 oppositely arranged, and both the first surface 11 and the second surface 12 are provided with grooves 20. Figure 2 ​As shown, in one embodiment, the grooves 20 on the first surface 11 and the grooves 20 on the second surface 12 are staggered in the thickness direction of the felt body 10.

[0041] In this embodiment, when viewed from the top view of the felt body 10, when a groove 20 is provided on the first surface 11, another groove 20 is provided on the second surface 12 in the adjacent area at that position, forming an alternating structure.

[0042] If the grooves 20 of the first surface 11 and the second surface 12 are perfectly aligned in the thickness direction, although a better bending effect can be achieved at that location, it will also reduce the strength of the felt body 10 at that location, because the grooves 20 of the two surfaces may significantly weaken the structural strength of the felt at the same position. By using an alternating arrangement, the grooves 20 of the two surfaces can be prevented from overlapping in the thickness direction, thereby ensuring that the felt body 10 retains sufficient structural strength at every position.

[0043] In practical implementation, the spacing and arrangement of the grooves 20 on the two surfaces (first surface 11 and second surface 12) can be rationally designed to create an optimal staggered effect. This staggered structure ensures the bending function of the felt body 10 while avoiding excessive weakening of the structural strength.

[0044] Furthermore, the degree of overlap of the grooves 20 can be adjusted according to actual needs. They can be completely staggered or partially staggered, as long as the grooves 20 on the two surfaces are not completely overlapped in the thickness direction, and the felt body 10 has appropriate bending properties.

[0045] like Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment, the preset direction is the length direction of the felt body 10.

[0046] In this embodiment, multiple grooves 20 are spaced apart along the length of the felt body 10. The extension direction of each groove 20 is perpendicular to the length of the felt body 10. These grooves 20 perpendicular to the length direction form an equidistant strip structure on the surface of the felt body 10, which can well adapt to the curvature of the cabinet 30 surface.

[0047] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the groove 20 extends from one end of the felt body 10 to the other end along its extending direction.

[0048] In this embodiment, the orientation of the felt body 10 is defined as follows: the direction in which the felt body 10 unfolds along the arc of the cabinet 30 is the length direction; the direction in which the felt body 10 is perpendicular to the ground is the height direction; and the direction from the first surface 11 to the second surface 12 is the thickness direction.

[0049] Each groove 20 is extended from one edge of the felt body 10 to the corresponding opposite edge, forming a strip structure throughout the length or height (depending on the extension direction of the groove 20) of the felt body 10. Specifically, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, when the groove 20 is arranged perpendicularly to the length direction, each groove 20 is extended from the bottom end to the top end of the felt body 10, throughout the entire height. Conversely, when the groove 20 is arranged perpendicularly to the height direction, each groove 20 is extended from the left end to the right end of the felt body 10, throughout the entire length.

[0050] In the present embodiment, firstly, the through groove 20 structure can ensure that the felt body 10 has uniform bending performance throughout the entire range. If the groove 20 is not completely through, but has discontinuities in the extension direction, then in the area where the groove 20 is absent, due to the surface layer fibers not being cut, a larger bending resistance will be generated. This uneven bending resistance can cause the felt body 10 to wrinkle or deform unevenly when bent.

[0051] Secondly, by making the groove 20 completely through, a more stable and predictable bending effect can be achieved. When the felt body 10 is bent, each through groove 20 can provide consistent deformation capability throughout its entire length, which can ensure the uniformity and smoothness of the bending deformation.

[0052] Specifically, if the groove 20 is not completely through at some positions, then at these positions the surface layer fibers are not cut, which will generate a larger bending resistance. This local bending resistance difference can cause irregular deformation or stress concentration of the felt body 10 when bent, affecting the use effect of the felt structure as a cabinet door. Therefore, by making the groove 20 completely through in the extension direction, these problems can be effectively avoided.

[0053] Further, although the groove 20 is arranged through, its depth is still kept smaller than the thickness of the felt body 10, so that the necessary strength and stability of the felt structure can be maintained while ensuring the bending performance.

[0054] As shown in Figure 3 , Figure 3 is a disassembled schematic view of the felt body of the felt structure provided in the present embodiment. In an embodiment, the felt body 10 includes multiple layers of felt, which include an outer layer of felt 13 and an intermediate layer of felt 14 sandwiched between the outer layer of felt 13.

[0055] In one embodiment, the felt body 10 adopts a composite structure formed by pressing multiple layers of felt, specifically including an outer felt layer 13 and an intermediate felt layer 14 sandwiched between the outer felt layers 13. The outer felt layer 13 comprises two layers, located on two surfaces of the felt body 10 respectively, forming a first surface 11 and a second surface 12. These two outer felt layers 13 primarily serve a protective function and also form the basis for processing the surface grooves 20. The outer felt layer 13 uses felt material of appropriate thickness to ensure good surface properties are maintained after the grooves 20 are created.

[0056] The intermediate felt layer 14 is sandwiched between two outer felt layers 13 and is tightly bonded to the outer felt layers 13 through a pressing process to form a whole. The main function of the intermediate felt layer 14 is to provide the overall structural support strength, and it also serves as a deformation buffer layer when bending. When the felt body 10 bends, the intermediate felt layer 14 can adapt well to the deformation and provide necessary support for the outer felt layers 13.

[0057] Furthermore, the specific number of layers in the multi-layer felt can be adjusted according to actual needs. The three-layer structure (two outer layers of felt 13 plus one middle layer of felt 14) used in this embodiment is a relatively ideal solution, ensuring sufficient strength without making the structure overly complex. In actual production, the thickness ratio of each layer of felt can be appropriately adjusted according to the requirements of the specific application scenario to obtain the best performance.

[0058] like Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the groove 20 is a V-shaped groove.

[0059] In this embodiment, the groove 20 provided on the surface of the felt body 10 is a V-shaped groove. Each V-shaped groove includes two groove walls that are inclined to each other and intersect at the bottom of the groove to form a certain angle. The design of the V-shaped groove makes the cut surface fibers form a clear boundary. When the felt body 10 is bent, the surface fibers on both sides of the V-shaped groove can be clearly separated, effectively reducing bending resistance.

[0060] Furthermore, the specific parameters of the V-groove (such as the opening angle and depth) can be adjusted according to actual application requirements. For example, the deformation characteristics during bending can be adjusted by changing the opening angle of the V-groove, or the relationship between bending performance and structural strength can be balanced by adjusting the depth of the V-groove.

[0061] In other embodiments, the groove 20 may adopt other cross-sectional shapes such as U-shaped grooves, rectangular grooves, or arc-shaped grooves. These grooves 20 of different shapes can also achieve the function of cutting the surface fibers and reducing bending resistance.

[0062] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, Figure 1 A furniture cabinet and a felt structure thereon are provided in the embodiments of the present application. Figure 3 A furniture cabinet and a felt structure thereon are provided in the embodiments of the present application. Figure 4 A furniture cabinet and a felt structure thereon are provided in the embodiments of the present application. In an embodiment, the furniture cabinet comprises: a cabinet body 30, the cabinet body 30 having an opening 40, the opening 40 being provided with the felt structure of any of the foregoing embodiments, the cabinet body 30 being provided with a first fixing member 51, the felt body 10 of the felt structure being provided with a second fixing member 52, the first fixing member 51 and the second fixing member 52 being matched with each other, and the first fixing member 51 and the second fixing member 52 being used to fix the felt structure at the opening 40.

[0063] In the embodiment, in order to firmly fix the felt structure at the opening 40, the cabinet body 30 is provided with the first fixing member 51, and the felt body 10 of the felt structure is provided with the second fixing member 52. The first fixing member 51 and the second fixing member 52 are matched with each other in position, thereby fixing the felt structure at the opening 40. The design of the fixing assembly (the first fixing member 51 and the second fixing member 52) can ensure that the felt structure is tightly attached to the surface of the cabinet body 30 in the closed state, and can also ensure that the felt structure is stable in position in the opened state and will not be loose or fall off.

[0064] In a specific embodiment, the surface of the cabinet body 30 can be convex or concave. When the felt structure is installed at the opening 40, the recess 20 provided on the surface of the felt body 10 has good bending performance, and thus can well adapt to the curvature of the surface of the cabinet body 30.

[0065] As Figure 4 shown, in an embodiment, the edge of the opening 40 is provided with a plurality of embedded holes 60, the first fixing member 51 is arranged in the embedded hole 60, and the second fixing member 52 is embedded in the felt body 10. In the embodiment, the edge of the opening 40 is provided with a plurality of embedded holes 60 along the contour direction. The embedded holes 60 are uniformly distributed according to a certain interval according to the shape and size of the opening 40 of the cabinet body 30. Correspondingly, the first fixing member 51 is arranged in each embedded hole 60.

[0066] Since the felt body 10 is pressed from a plurality of layers of felt, the second fixing member 52 is embedded in the felt body 10 in the pressing process. Specifically, since the felt body 10 comprises the outer layer felt 13 and the intermediate layer felt 14 arranged between the outer layer felts 13, the second fixing member 52 is embedded in the corresponding position of the intermediate layer felt 14, so as to correspond to the position of the first fixing member 51 in the embedded hole 60 of the cabinet body 30.

[0067] In this way, by arranging a plurality of embedded holes 60 at the edge of the opening 40 and making the second fixing member 52 in the felt body 10 correspond to one of the embedded holes 60, the felt structure and the cabinet body 30 can be fixed at multiple points, thereby enhancing the stability of the connection.

[0068] As shown in the drawings, in an embodiment, the first fixing member 51 is a magnet, the second fixing member 52 is a metal sheet, and a sealing strip 70 is arranged at the embedded hole 60. Figure 4

[0069] In this embodiment, the fixing assembly is fixed by magnetic force. Specifically, the first fixing member 51 is a magnet embedded in the embedded hole 60 at the edge of the opening 40, and the second fixing member 52 is a metal sheet embedded in the interior of the felt body 10. A sealing strip 70 is arranged at the embedded hole 60 to prevent the magnet from falling out.

[0070] Specifically, when the felt structure is installed in place, the magnetic force generated between the magnet and the metal sheet can firmly adsorb the felt structure on the cabinet body 30. After the embedded hole 60 is opened at the corresponding position of the cabinet body 30 and the magnet is placed in the embedded hole 60, the embedded hole 60 is sealed with the sealing strip 70, so that the magnet cannot fall out of the embedded hole 60.

[0071] This fixing method using a magnet and a metal sheet is simple to operate and facilitates the opening and closing of the felt structure as a cabinet door. At the same time, the magnetic force is stable and reliable, which can ensure that the felt structure is tightly attached to the cabinet body 30 when used as a cabinet door.

[0072] In other embodiments, the positions of the metal sheet and the magnet can be exchanged, such as the metal sheet being installed in the embedded hole 60 and the magnet being installed in the felt body 10.

[0073] The above is only a specific embodiment of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can easily think of various equivalent modifications or replacements within the technical range disclosed by the present application, and these modifications or replacements should be covered within the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application should be subject to the protection scope of the claims.​
