Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cabinet installation accessories technology, and in particular to a finishing strip structure for a floor-standing cabinet. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of cabinet furniture, floor-standing products such as sideboards, dining cabinets, TV cabinets, and storage cabinets often feature a base that rests directly on the ground, a common and practical structural form. This design provides good overall stability, appears visually solid and reliable, and helps distribute the weight of the cabinet and the items it supports. However, this structure has a significant drawback in actual installation and use: it requires extremely high installation precision and lacks effective error tolerance and adjustment mechanisms.

[0003] Since cabinets are typically assembled from multiple vertical panels, partitions, and a base plate using connectors, minor skew errors can be introduced during factory production or on-site installation due to factors such as the verticality of the vertical panels, the flatness of the connection between the base plate and the vertical panels, and the levelness of the ground itself. When these minor errors accumulate or are amplified individually, they can cause slight tilting or twisting of the overall cabinet frame, resulting in instability and wobbling. To address this, some manufacturers have designed floor-standing cabinets with adjustable base height, such as the height adjustment structure for a floor-standing cabinet proposed in patent number 2025211780513.

[0004] However, after adjusting the height of this type of floor-standing cabinet, a gap will remain between the bottom of the cabinet and the base. Sealing this gap with silicone sealant would not only hinder future relocation but also raise environmental concerns. Therefore, a more environmentally friendly edge-sealing structure that facilitates future relocation is needed. Utility Model Content

[0005] This utility model aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, this utility model proposes an edge trim structure for a floor-standing cabinet.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by one embodiment of this utility model to solve its technical problem is: a finishing strip structure for a floor cabinet, the finishing strip including a horizontal base and a vertical extension portion that are injection molded and extend in a long strip shape; The back of the horizontal base is provided with an adhesive layer, which can be adhered to the outside of the cabinet; the vertical extension can be bent and deformed, and can be fitted against the ground or wall.

[0007] Optionally, the lateral base and the vertical extension are made of PVC material.

[0008] Optionally, the hardness of the transverse base is greater than the hardness of the vertical extension.

[0009] Optionally, the thickness of the lateral base is greater than the thickness of the vertical extension.

[0010] Optionally, the head of the vertical extension is provided with an arc-shaped surface structure.

[0011] Optionally, the thickness of the vertical extension gradually decreases from the root towards the head.

[0012] Optionally, a flange is provided on one side of the horizontal base; the flange extends in a direction away from the vertical extension and forms a right-angle corner structure with the horizontal base to be attached to the edge of the cabinet.

[0013] Optionally, the head of the flanged portion is provided with an arc-shaped surface.

[0014] Optionally, the transverse base has an inclined surface on the side facing the flange, with the thickness gradually decreasing.

[0015] Optionally, the vertical extension is provided as a single one; or, the vertical extension is provided in two or more at intervals.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: By fixing the cabinet to the outside with an adhesive layer on the back of the horizontal base, the use of traditional silicone sealant is avoided, thus eliminating the release of harmful chemicals and meeting environmental protection requirements. Simultaneously, the adhesive layer is easy to remove and re-attach; the non-silicone sealing structure means the cabinet itself is not locked in place, allowing for easy relocation or repositioning. It can be easily removed without leaving residue, greatly improving the product's reusability and user convenience. The edge trim effectively covers the gap between the bottom of the cabinet and the ground, preventing dust and insects from entering, while providing a smooth visual transition. This not only enhances the overall aesthetics of the cabinet but also avoids the cracking or discoloration problems that may occur with traditional sealing methods (such as silicone sealant), ensuring the product's cleanliness and reliability during long-term use.

[0024] Example Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The present invention proposes a finishing strip structure for a floor cabinet, the finishing strip including a horizontal base 10 and a vertical extension 20 that are injection molded and extend in a long strip shape; The back of the horizontal base 10 is provided with an adhesive layer, which can be adhered to the outside of the cabinet; the vertical extension 20 can be bent and deformed, and can be attached to the ground or wall.

[0025] In this invention, the adhesive layer on the back of the horizontal base 10 is fixed to the outside of the cabinet, avoiding the use of traditional silicone sealant and thus eliminating the release of harmful chemicals, meeting environmental protection requirements. Simultaneously, the adhesive layer is easy to remove and re-attach; the non-silicone sealing structure means the cabinet itself is not locked in place, allowing for easy relocation or repositioning. It can be easily removed without leaving residue, greatly improving the product's reusability and user convenience. The edge trim effectively covers the gap between the bottom of the cabinet and the ground, preventing dust and insects from entering, while providing a smooth visual transition. This not only enhances the overall aesthetics of the cabinet but also avoids cracking or discoloration problems that may occur with traditional sealing methods (such as silicone sealant), ensuring the product's cleanliness and reliability during long-term use.

[0026] In this embodiment, the horizontal base 10 and the vertical extension 20 are made of PVC material. The injection molding process ensures the dimensional accuracy of the long strip structure and avoids the deformation risk of wooden / metal edge strips. PVC material is resistant to moisture and mildew, making it particularly suitable for humid environments such as kitchens and bathrooms. The surface can be customized with wood grain / stone grain transfer printing to achieve visual integration and decoration.

[0027] In this embodiment, the hardness of the transverse base 10 is greater than that of the vertical extension 20. The differentiated hardness design achieves structural functional zoning: the high-hardness transverse base 10 bears the lateral stress of the cabinet and prevents the adhesive layer from detaching due to cabinet shaking; the low-hardness vertical extension 20 maintains lasting resilience and ensures that it can still restore the seal after bending deformation.

[0028] In some embodiments, the high-hardness lateral base 10 contains no plasticizer, is not easily deformed, and is easy to apply double-sided tape to; the low-hardness vertical extension 20 contains plasticizer, is soft and easily deformed, and is not easy to apply double-sided tape to.

[0029] In some embodiments, the thickness of the transverse base 10 is greater than the thickness of the vertical extension 20. The thicker transverse base 10 resists installation torque and prevents deformation during tightening; the thinner vertical extension 20 reduces bending stiffness and ensures that the seal can be restored after bending deformation.

[0030] In this embodiment, the head of the vertical extension 20 is designed with an arc-shaped surface. The arc-shaped end eliminates the risk of scratches and does not damage the wood flooring / tile glaze when the cabinet is moved.

[0031] In this embodiment, the thickness of the vertical extension 20 gradually decreases from the root towards the head. This gradually thinning structure achieves a bending stress gradient distribution, preventing root breakage and extending service life.

[0032] In this embodiment, a flange 30 is provided on one side of the horizontal base 10. The flange 30 extends away from the vertical extension 20, forming a right-angle corner structure with the horizontal base 10 to adhere to the edge of the cabinet. The flange 30 constructs a three-dimensional protective system, and the right-angle corner structure precisely matches the 90° edge of the cabinet, eliminating the triangular dust accumulation area between the traditional L-shaped edge trim and the cabinet. Specifically, the head of the flange 30 is designed with an arc shape. The arc-shaped end of the flange 30 provides human body impact protection.

[0033] Furthermore, the horizontal base 10 has an inclined surface on the side facing the flange 30, with the thickness gradually decreasing. The gradual change in thickness reduces the projected width of the edge strip, solving the problem of the traditional edge strip's bulky appearance; the inclined surface guides light refraction, weakening the presence of the seam.

[0034] In this embodiment, the vertical extension 20 is provided as a single unit. This single extension design optimizes cost control.

[0035] In some embodiments, two or more vertical extensions 20 are spaced apart. Multiple vertical extensions 20 configurations implement a tiered sealing strategy to address localized ground depressions, forming multiple lines of defense.

[0036] Of course, this utility model is not limited to the above-described embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make equivalent modifications or substitutions without departing from the spirit of this utility model. All such equivalent modifications and substitutions are included within the scope defined by the claims of this application.
