[0025] The following will refer to the appendix in the embodiments of this utility model. Figure 1-8 The technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0026] Example 1: To address the problems existing in the prior art, this example provides a multifunctional storage sofa, including a sofa body 1 and a U-shaped coffee table 2. The sofa body 1 has at least three seats (odd number), which are suspended. A gap is provided between adjacent seats for the legs of the coffee table 2 to pass through. The coffee table 2 is suspended above the even number of seats. Sofa stools 3 are connected to both sides of the coffee table 2's legs, and the stools 3 can be concealed in the gaps under the seats. A drawer 4 is provided on the side wall of the coffee table 2's legs located under the seats.
[0027] Principle details of this embodiment: A multifunctional storage sofa includes a sofa body 1 and a U-shaped coffee table 2.
[0028] The sofa body 1 includes sofa legs, sofa seats, and a backrest. The sofa legs have a C-shaped opening structure. The number of sofa seats is no less than three, and is always an odd number, such as a three-seat sofa, a five-seat sofa, or a seven-seat sofa. The attached drawings show the structures of three-seat and five-seat sofas.
[0029] The coffee table 2 includes a tabletop and legs.
[0030] The above describes the standard structure of a sofa and coffee table 2. To achieve a more balanced integration between the sofa and coffee table 2, gaps are provided between adjacent seats, with the gap dimensions accommodating the legs of coffee table 2. Coffee table 2 is suspended above an even number of seats; for example, in a three-seat sofa, coffee table 2 corresponds to the second middle sofa seat. Sofa stools 3 are attached to both sides of the coffee table 2's legs, and the seats are suspended, allowing the stools 3 to be concealed beneath them. A drawer 4 is located on the side wall of the legs of coffee table 2 beneath the seats, which can be used to store miscellaneous items.
[0031] Based on the above technical solution: When in use, it has two modes; taking a three-seat sofa as an example: The first type is the concealed state: see appendix. Figure 2As shown, the legs of coffee table 2 are inserted into the gaps between the sofa seats, and sofa stool 3 is located under the seats, allowing the sofa and coffee table 2 to be combined, transforming the original three-seat sofa into a two-seat sofa with coffee table 2, similar to having two sets of armchairs on either side of a tea table. Coffee table 2 supports the middle sofa seat, thus reducing the external standing space, and for scenarios where two people sit together, the presence of coffee table 2 prevents the middle seat from feeling too empty and awkward.
[0032] The second type is the unfolded state: see appendix. Figure 1 As shown, at this time, the coffee table 2 is pulled out from the sofa body 1 to form a separate external coffee table 2. The three sofas can originally seat three people, and the coffee table 2 is equipped with two sets of sofa stools 3, which can seat two more people, thus providing more seating.
[0033] In summary, this solution integrates coffee table 2 with sofa body 1 in a balanced way. Coffee table 2 can be embedded in sofa body 1 to save space, or it can be pulled out separately to provide more seating.
[0034] In this embodiment, the lower end of the sofa stool 3 is provided with a storage cavity 5. This cavity can be used for storage, further improving space utilization.
[0035] In Example 2, a further embodiment of this solution, since the seat of the sofa body 1 is suspended in the air, in order to maintain stability, either a higher strength material should be used, referring to the public seats in the waiting hall; or more frame reinforcement should be added, both of which will lead to an increase in cost to varying degrees.
[0036] Therefore, in this embodiment, under the premise of unchanged or minimal cost increase, in order to achieve a more stable seating arrangement, a support leg 6 is provided on the bottom wall of the seat used to conceal the sofa stool 3, near the side corresponding to the coffee table 2. A notch 8 is provided at the connection between the table leg 2 and the sofa stool 3 for the support leg 6 to pass through. A second support leg 7 is provided at the bottom of the seat corresponding to the coffee table 2. Both the first support leg 6 and the second support leg 7, as well as the corresponding bottom wall of the seat, are equipped with reinforcing ribs or ribs, thereby increasing the support points between the seat and the supporting surface, making the seat more stable and less prone to deformation.
[0037] In this embodiment, the notch 8 is flared. When the coffee table 2 is pushed onto the sofa body 1, the flared notch 8 can guide the support leg 6 and facilitate its insertion.
[0038] In this embodiment, both legs of the coffee table 2 are provided with brackets 4, and the distance between the two brackets 4 is not less than the width of the second leg 7. The two sets of brackets 4 are symmetrically arranged to make room for the second leg 7.
[0039] In a further embodiment of this solution (Example 3), the upper ends of both legs of the coffee table 2 are provided with suspended surfaces, located on the sides of the tabletop. Each suspended surface has a mounting base, and each mounting base has a pivot 9. A flip-up table 10 is mounted on each pivot 9. When the coffee table 2 is in its concealed state, the flip-up table 10 can be used as a small tabletop when opened. When the coffee table 2 is in its unfolded state, the flip-up table 10 expands the tabletop space, allowing for the placement of more items.
[0040] In this embodiment, the dimensions of the two flip tables 10 are such that one flip table 10 covers the other. This achieves staggered assembly of the two sets of flip tables 10. Compared to setting two sets of flip tables 10 on a horizontal plane, vertical assembly results in a smaller space occupied by the flip tables 10 and a more reasonable space allocation.
[0041] In this embodiment, the outer flip-up table 10 is sized to match the coffee table 2. When the flip-up table 10 is not unfolded, it can be used in conjunction with the tabletop of the coffee table 2.
[0042] In this embodiment, friction damping is provided between the flip table 10 and the rotating shaft 9, such as by providing a friction layer or by using the rotating shaft 9 as a damping shaft, to prevent the flip table 10 from easily flipping over.
[0043] In this embodiment, the coffee table 2 has grooves 11 on both sides of its legs. After the flip table 10 is unfolded, it is placed on the grooves 11, so that the flip table 10 cannot continue to deflect after being unfolded at 180° and remains stable in that position.
[0044] Furthermore, the widths of the unsupported surfaces at the top of the legs on both sides of the coffee table 2 are different: as shown in the attached diagram, the left flip-up table 10 is wider than the right flip-up table 10, and since the front faces of the two flip-up tables 10 are flat, the rear face of the left flip-up table 10 is located behind the right flip-up table 10. Therefore, to accommodate the widths of the two flip-up tables 10, the width of the left groove 11 is greater than the width of the right groove 11. This means that the upper part of the right wall of the unsupported surface is not entirely a groove structure, but retains a flat edge of a certain size, which is the difference in width between the front and rear directions of the two flip-up tables 10. This flat edge is placed when the left flip-up table 10 is folded up to maintain its horizontal balance.
[0045] Of course, a protrusion can also be provided on the surface of the right flip table 10. When the two flip tables 10 are in the storage state, the left end of the right flip table 10 rests against the left suspended surface, while the protrusion rests against the bottom wall of the left flip table 10, thereby keeping the left flip table 10 horizontal and stable.

Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
