[0029] I. Main Components and Basic Structure

[0030] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the furniture decorative railing component of this utility model includes a railing C, a fixing tube Y, a surface-mounted fixing base D, and a spring T; one end of the fixing tube Y has a groove that matches the railing C; the surface-mounted fixing base D has a connector that matches the other end of the fixing tube Y; the spring T is fitted into the groove.

[0031] 1.1 Guardrail C

[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, guardrail C is a round rod or round tube, which can be made of aluminum tube, aluminum rod, copper rod, copper tube, stainless steel rod, or wooden round rod. Its surface finish and dimensions can be designed and adjusted as needed.

[0033] 1.2 Spring T

[0034] like Figure 4 As shown, the spring is a ready-made high-quality spring, or it can be manufactured in-house using specialized equipment. Spring T is fitted into the insertion slot in the fixing tube Y to compress and fix the guardrail C. To prevent the spring from falling out during insertion, spring T is designed with one end larger than the other. The larger end fits into the insertion slot in the fixing tube Y, allowing it to lock into place at the bottom of the slot, while the smaller end does not have direct contact with the inner wall of the slot. This facilitates the insertion of the guardrail C, ensuring a good compression stroke when the guardrail C compresses the spring.

[0035] 1.3 Surface-mounted fixed base D

[0036] like Figure 3As shown, the surface-mounted mounting base D can be a screw-fixed base D3, a screwless mounting base D1 / D2, a concealed external thread base D4, or a concealed short column base D5. The surface-mounted mounting base D can be made of die-cast plastic, zinc, aluminum, copper, stainless steel, or wood.

[0037] The screwless mounting bases D1 / D2 are frustum-shaped, with a recessed depth hole at the top that matches the other end of the mounting tube Y. Other shapes are also possible, but the frustum shape offers better cost control and versatility. Since the mounting primarily relies on friction between the base and the mounting surface, the screwless mounting bases D1 / D2 need to be designed to be slightly larger to increase the friction area. The size and shape of the recessed depth hole are determined by the other end of the matching mounting tube Y, generally using a circular hole or a hole with rounded corners for easy machining. Countersunk screw mounting holes can also be designed according to actual needs for convenient reinforcement installation. Because D1 / D2 is entirely supported by springs and friction for fixation, this base should not be used in excessively high places to avoid the risk of parts falling and causing a hazard.

[0038] The screw fixing base D3 is a cylindrical base (with equal diameter at the top and bottom). One end of the cylindrical base has a recessed depth hole that matches the other end of the fixing tube Y. A countersunk screw fixing hole, penetrating the cylindrical base, is located in the center of the recessed depth hole. Because the screw fixing base D3 is fixed with screws, it can be designed to be smaller to reduce costs and improve aesthetics. The size and shape of the recessed depth hole are determined based on the other end of the matching fixing tube Y, and are generally a circular hole or a hole with rounded corners for easy machining.

[0039] The concealed external thread base D4 is a cylindrical base. The outer circumference of the cylindrical base is provided with external threads that match the other end of the fixing tube Y. The central axis of the cylindrical base is provided with a countersunk screw fixing hole that passes through the cylindrical base.

[0040] The concealed short column base D5 is a cylindrical base with a recessed depth hole at one end and a countersunk screw fixing hole through the central axis of the cylindrical base. Since D5 is mainly used in conjunction with Y5, D5 needs to have an appropriate thickness and diameter to provide guidance and ensure a tight fit when it is tightly fitted with Y5, thus meeting the product's usage requirements.

[0041] 1.4 Fixed tube Y

[0042] like Figure 2 As shown, the fixing tube Y is a hollow cylindrical tube made of die-cast plastic, zinc, aluminum, copper, stainless steel, or wood. The fixing tube Y consists of fixing tube Y1, fixing tube Y2, fixing tube Y4, and fixing tube Y5; among them, fixing tube Y1 or Y2 is closed at one end, and fixing tube Y4 or Y5 is open at the other end.

[0043] Fixed tube Y1 is a cylinder of unequal diameter, while fixed tubes Y2, Y4, and Y5 are cylinders of equal diameter. The cylinder on one side of the fixing tube Y1 that matches the guardrail C is a large cylinder of equal diameter, while the other end that matches the surface-mounted fixing base D is a small cylinder. The outer diameter of the large cylinder matches the outer diameter of the screw fixing base D3 (covering the edge of D3 when used with Y1), and the outer diameter of the small cylinder matches the diameter of the recessed depth hole in the screw fixing base D3; or the outer diameter of the large cylinder matches the outer diameter of the upper bottom of the screwless fixing base D2 (covering the edge of D2 when used with Y1), and the outer diameter of the small cylinder matches the diameter of the recessed depth hole in the screwless fixing base D2; the other end of the fixing tube Y2 has an outer diameter that matches the diameter of the recessed depth hole in the screwless fixing base D1; the other end of the fixing tube Y4 has an internal thread that matches the external thread in the concealed external thread base D4; the other end of the fixing tube Y5 has an inner diameter that matches the cylindrical outer diameter of the concealed short column base D5.

[0044] While ensuring compatibility with the surface-mounted base D, the other end of the fixing tube Y can also be in various shapes, such as a small column with rounded corners (e.g., a racetrack shape) or a small triangular prism. Regardless, the diameter of the other end of the fixing tube Y is always smaller than that of the first end to ensure an aesthetically pleasing appearance during installation (the smaller diameter portion is hidden within the cabinet or surface-mounted base D and concealed by the larger diameter portion, and can also cover chipped or peeling paint from furniture manufacturing). Considering production costs and efficiency, a small column with rounded corners (including a cylinder) is the preferred option. Furthermore, the other end of the fixing tube Y is the fixed installation end, therefore its length is also significantly shorter than that of the first end.

[0045] To achieve a high-quality decorative effect, the size of the insertion groove at one end of the fixing pipe must match that of the guardrail C to avoid the insertion groove being too large and causing a large gap.

[0046] II. Usage and Application Scenarios

[0047] 2.1 Equal Diameter Concealed Installation

[0048] Component assembly format: Y2+T+C+T+Y2 (Example 1)

[0049] like Figure 5 As shown, taking an open-style bathroom vanity as an example, determine the appropriate aesthetic standards and product protection height for the shelves near the outer edge of the cabinet. Drill matching Y2 mounting holes on the left and right side panels of the cabinet (ideally, this should be pre-processed by the manufacturer during furniture production). Assemble the cabinet from left to right according to the above assembly method. This method has a certain drawback: chipping (paint peeling) is inevitable when drilling holes in the side panels, and Y2 cannot cover the chipped edges, resulting in an unsightly appearance.

[0050] 2.2 Unequal Diameter Concealed Installation

[0051] Component assembly format: Y1+T+C+T+Y1 (Example 2)

[0052] like Figure 5 As shown, taking an open-style bathroom vanity as an example, determine the appropriate aesthetic standards and product protection height for the shelves near the outer edge of the cabinet. Make matching Y1 mounting holes on the left and right side panels of the cabinet (ideally, this should be pre-processed by the manufacturer during furniture production). Assemble the cabinet by connecting and arranging the panels from left to right according to the above assembly method. Specifically, place the larger end of the spring T inwards at the bottom of the Y1 insertion slot. Place the appropriately sized guardrail C between the two Y1s with the spring T already assembled. Then, grasp both ends to compress the left and right Y1s, and insert the ends of the Y1s into the mounting holes on the side panels.

[0053] The length of guardrail C can be reduced by taking into account the actual internal space of the cabinet and the spring compression stroke. Since the spring compression stroke is large, the length of guardrail C is allowed to have a large tolerance for on-site installation.

[0054] 2.3 Application of Exposed Screwless Mounting Bases and Unequal Diameter Mounting Tubes

[0055] Component assembly format: D1+Y1+T+C+T+Y1+D1 (Example 3)

[0056] like Figure 6 As shown, taking an open bathroom vanity as an example, it is basically the same as 2.2, except that the D1 component is added and the side panel does not need to be drilled or fixed with screws.

[0057] 2.4 Application of exposed screw fixing bases and unequal diameter fixing tubes

[0058] Component assembly format: D3+Y1+T+C+T+Y1+D3 (Example 4)

[0059] like Figure 6 As shown, taking an open bathroom vanity as an example, determine the appropriate aesthetic standards and product protection height of the shelf near the outer edge of the cabinet. Fix D3 with screws on the left and right side panels of the cabinet. Refer to 2.2 and assemble from left to right according to the above assembly method. The main thing is to put the small diameter end of Y1 into the matching recessed depth hole of D3.

[0060] 2.5 Application of Exposed Screwless Mounting Bases and Unequal Diameter Mounting Tubes

[0061] Component assembly format: D2+Y1+T+C+T+Y1+D2 (Example 5)

[0062] like Figure 6 As shown, taking an open bathroom vanity as an example, it is basically the same as 2.3.

[0063] Methods 2.1-2.2 require pre-drilling holes or on-site drilling by a skilled technician, while methods 2.3-2.5 do not require pre-drilling holes and are easier to install, making them more suitable for situations where guardrails are added to furniture later.

[0064] 2.6 Concealed external threaded base D4 and fixing tube Y4

[0065] Component assembly format: D4+Y4+C+Y4+D4 (Example 6)

[0066] like Figure 7 As shown, taking an open bathroom vanity as an example, D4 ​​is pre-installed on both side panels. The two Y4 sections are then screwed on correctly to align with the threads of D4 until they are flush with the side panels. This method directly adjusts and secures the guardrail using the screw threads, resulting in a smaller tolerance for the length of the guardrail C.

[0067] It can also be used with spring T, such as in the following assembly forms: D4+Y4+T+C+T+Y4+D4 or D4+Y4+T+C+Y4+D4 or D4+Y4+C+T+Y4+D4. That is, by using spring compression, a larger tolerance for the length C of the guardrail can be obtained, and the use of spring can also avoid abnormal noise caused by contact due to gaps between parts.

[0068] 2.7 Concealed short column base D5 + fixing tube Y5

[0069] Component assembly format: D5+Y5+C+Y5+D5 (Example 7)

[0070] like Figure 8 As shown, taking an open bathroom vanity as an example, D5 is pre-installed on both side panels. After connecting Y5 and D5, hold Y5 by hand and press it towards the two side panels of the cabinet. Directly tighten the connection so that Y5 fits into the two side panels of the cabinet. In this method, the length tolerance of the guardrail C is smaller.

[0071] It can also be used with spring T, such as in the following assembly forms: D5+Y5+T+C+T+Y5+D5 or D5+Y5+T+C+Y5+D5 or D5+Y5+C+T+Y5+D5, that is, by using spring compression, a larger tolerance for the length of guardrail C can be obtained.
