Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of furniture, and in particular to a table. Background Technology

[0002] For tables with single-legged tables on the market, the tabletop is supported by only a single leg in the front-to-back direction. The table and the legs are connected and fixed by a connector to ensure normal use of the table. This is especially true for tables with wooden legs, which usually require a connector to fix the tabletop to the wooden legs.

[0003] For example, an existing table includes a tabletop 1 and wooden legs 2. A connector 11 connects the legs 2 to the tabletop 1. The connector 11 is typically an L-shaped sheet metal part, including a horizontal portion connecting to the bottom of the tabletop 1 and a vertical portion extending downwards from the horizontal portion. The vertical portion is secured to the inside of the wooden legs 2 by multiple screws. However, a drawback of this design is that when the user uses the table, their arms or upper body inevitably exert downward pressure on the tabletop 1, such as… Figure 5 As shown, there is a certain gap between the front end of the tabletop 1 and the table leg 2. When the tabletop 1 is subjected to downward pressure for a long time, it will form a rotational lever force at the connection between the table leg 2 and the longitudinal part. After receiving the rotational lever force, the multiple screws will tend to move outward and exert a large and outward force on the wooden table leg 2. However, the structural strength of the wooden table leg 2 is insufficient, and it is easy to crack after being subjected to the outward force, which will affect the service life of the table. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This utility model provides a table leg reinforcement structure and a table. By fitting a rigid sleeve on the connecting section of the table leg, a rigid enveloping support is formed around the connecting section, thus reinforcing the table leg. When the tabletop is subjected to downward pressure and the fasteners exert an outward diffusion force on the connecting section, the rigid sleeve can resist the diffusion force, preventing the connecting section from cracking and improving the service life of the table.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows: A table leg reinforcement structure includes a table leg with a connecting section on the table leg and a rigid sleeve fitted on the connecting section, the rigid sleeve covering the connecting section from all sides; the rigid sleeve has a first clearance hole for fasteners to pass through.

[0006] Preferably, the fastener is a screw, and the connecting section is provided with a screw hole corresponding to the position of the first clearance hole.

[0007] Preferably, the connecting section has an internal threaded sleeve pre-embedded in it for mating with screws; the internal threaded sleeve has a pre-machined screw hole, so it is not necessary to drill a screw hole on the connecting section.

[0008] Preferably, there are multiple first clearance holes and screw holes, and the connecting section and the side connecting part are locked and fixed by multiple screws that pass through the corresponding first clearance holes and screw holes.

[0009] Preferably, the table leg includes a table leg body, with a portion of the table leg body tapering inward to form the connecting section, and a stepped surface is formed at the junction of the connecting section and the table leg body that abuts against the corresponding end of the rigid sleeve.

[0010] Preferably, the table legs are made of wood, while the rigid sleeves are made of metal; the metal is harder than the wood, which prevents the wooden table legs from cracking.

[0011] A table includes a tabletop and a leg reinforcement structure; a connector is installed at the bottom of the tabletop, the connector having a vertically extending side connection portion corresponding to the position of the connecting segment; the side connection portion is provided with a second clearance hole corresponding to the first clearance hole and for fasteners to pass through.

[0012] Preferably, the top of the table leg is supported on the bottom of the tabletop; the first clearance hole and the second clearance hole are both single, and the connecting section is provided with a screw hole corresponding to the position of the first clearance hole; a single screw passes through the first clearance hole and the second clearance hole and is locked into the screw hole, so that the side connecting part is locked with the connecting section.

[0013] Preferably, the bottom of the tabletop is provided with a downwardly extending side plate, which is located between the connecting section and the side connecting part; the side connecting part is fixed to the side plate; when the tabletop is subjected to downward pressure, the force on the tabletop can be transferred to the side plate, avoiding the connecting part from directly exerting a large force on the tabletop.

[0014] Preferably, the connector also includes a transverse connector integrally connected to the side connector, which is fixed to the bottom surface of the tabletop by fasteners; thus, the connector and the tabletop are directly fixed together by the connector.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model, which adopts the above technical solution, are as follows: This invention features a rigid sleeve fitted at the joint of the table legs, preventing the table legs from cracking outwards after being connected to the tabletop via connectors. When the tabletop is subjected to downward pressure, causing a slight deflection and the fasteners exert an outward force on the joint, the rigid sleeve surrounding the joint can counteract this force, ensuring stable support of the joint against the tabletop and preventing cracking, thus extending the table's lifespan.

Detailed Implementation

[0017] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0018] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0019] The specific embodiments of this utility model are as follows: like Figure 1-3 As shown, this embodiment provides a table leg reinforcement structure, including a table leg 2. The table leg 2 has a connecting section 22, which is a partial section along the length of the table leg 2. A rigid sleeve 21 is fitted onto the connecting section 22. The structural strength of the rigid sleeve 21 is usually greater than that of the table leg 2. For example, in this embodiment, the table leg 2 is made of wood, and the rigid sleeve 21 is made of metal, such as iron or steel. The rigid sleeve 21 surrounds the connecting section 22, thus reinforcing the connecting section 22. The rigid sleeve 21 has a first clearance hole 211 for fasteners to pass through.

[0020] Based on this, this embodiment provides a table, including a tabletop 1 and the aforementioned table leg reinforcement structure; to increase the support stability of the tabletop 1, the table leg reinforcement structure in this embodiment is symmetrically arranged at the bottom of the tabletop 1; a reinforcing rod 23 is also fixed between the two table legs 2 by screws to prevent the table legs 2 from moving to the sides; a connector 11 is installed at the bottom of the tabletop 1, the connector 11 is usually a sheet metal part, which has a vertically extending side connecting part 111 corresponding to the position of the connecting section 22; the side connecting part 111 is provided with a second clearance hole (not shown) corresponding to the first clearance hole 211 and used for fasteners to pass through. Furthermore, the fastener structure in this embodiment is diverse, and can be screws or nails. If the table leg 2 is made of wood, the nail can be directly driven into the connecting section 22 through the first clearance hole 211 and the second clearance hole. However, considering the difficulty of assembling the table leg 2 with the tabletop 1, the fastener in this embodiment is preferably a screw. Therefore, the connecting section 22 is provided with a screw hole 221 corresponding to the position of the first clearance hole 211. However, if the screw hole 221 is directly set on the wooden table leg 2, the connection strength is difficult to meet the requirements. Therefore, the connecting section 22 in this embodiment is pre-embedded with an internal threaded sleeve for cooperating with the screw. The internal threaded sleeve is made of metal and has a pre-machined screw hole 221, which eliminates the need to drill the screw hole 221 on the wooden connecting section 22, simplifying the assembly process and ensuring the connection strength between the connecting section 22 and the tabletop 1.

[0021] Furthermore, in order to form a strong anti-torsion connection structure between the connecting segment 22 and the side connecting part 111 and to resist the rotational torque applied to the connecting segment 22 by the table 1 when it is subjected to downward pressure, there are multiple first clearance holes 211 and screw holes 221 in this embodiment. The connecting segment 22 and the side connecting part 111 are locked and fixed by multiple screws that pass through the corresponding first clearance holes 211 and screw holes 221, thereby forming multiple locking points between the connecting segment 22 and the side connecting part 111 and improving the connection strength between the connecting segment 22 and the side connecting part 111.

[0022] Furthermore, in order to improve the stability of the table leg 2 supporting the tabletop 1, the top of the table leg 2 in this embodiment is supported on the bottom surface of the tabletop 1, forming a surface support for the tabletop 1. On this basis, the first clearance hole 211 and the second clearance hole can also be set as a single hole. Specifically, the connecting section 22 is provided with a screw hole 221 corresponding to the position of the first clearance hole 211. After a single screw passes through the first clearance hole 211 and the second clearance hole, it is locked into the screw hole 221, so that the side connecting part 111 is locked with the connecting section 22 to form a single-point connection. Under the premise that the top of the table leg 2 already supports the tabletop 1, the single-point connection design can also play a role in anti-torsion, and at the same time simplify the assembly process.

[0023] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the table leg 2 includes a table leg body, and a portion of the table leg body tapers inward to form the connecting segment 22. In this embodiment, the connecting segment 22 is located at the top of the table leg body and provides support to the bottom surface of the tabletop 1. A stepped surface is formed at the junction of the connecting segment 22 and the table leg body, which abuts against the corresponding end of the rigid sleeve 21. The stepped surface can position the rigid sleeve 21 along the length of the table leg 2, preventing it from sliding along the length of the table leg 2. In addition, the outer surface of the rigid sleeve 21 is flush with the outer surface of the table leg body, creating a strong sense of unity in appearance and enhancing the aesthetics of the table.

[0024] Furthermore, the bottom of the tabletop 1 is provided with downwardly extending side panels 12, which are symmetrically arranged on the bottom surface of the tabletop 1. The side panels 12 extend in the front-to-back direction, which can strengthen the structural strength of the tabletop 1. At the same time, a drawer 3 that slides back and forth can be arranged between the two side panels 12, making the table more functional. Each side panel 12 is located between the corresponding connecting section 22 and the side connecting part 111, so that the connecting part 11 is covered by the side panel 12. Specifically, the side connecting part 111 is fixed to the side panel 12 by screws. At the same time, the side panel 12 is also provided with a first clearance hole 211 corresponding to the position of the screw hole 221, which facilitates the screw to be inserted. After assembly, when the tabletop 1 is subjected to downward pressure and has a slight tendency to deflect, the side panel 12 can also share the torque on the connecting part 11, preventing the connecting part 11 from being deformed due to excessive torque.

[0025] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the table leg 2 is inclined, and a diagonal brace 24 is connected to the table leg 2. The diagonal brace 24 and the table leg 2 form a V-shaped structure in the front-back direction, ensuring that the table leg 2 can be stably supported on the ground. Alternatively, the table leg 2 can be set perpendicular to the tabletop 1, and a front-back extending foot is added to the bottom of the table leg 2, so that the bracket and the table leg 2 form an inverted T-shaped support structure in the front-back direction, which can also make the table leg 2 stably supported on the ground.

[0026] Example 2: As Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment differs from the above embodiment in that the side plate 12 is not provided on the bottom surface of the tabletop 1 in this embodiment. That is, the connector 11 also includes a horizontal connector 112 integrally connected with the side connector 111. The horizontal connector 112 and the side connector 111 form an L-shaped or T-shaped structure. The horizontal connector 112 is fixed to the bottom surface of the tabletop 1 by fasteners such as screws or nails. In this way, the side connector 111 is directly flat against the outer surface of the rigid sleeve 21 and locked to the connecting section 22 by screws, so that the connecting section 22 and the tabletop 1 are directly fixed together by the connector 11. While simplifying the table structure, the rigid sleeve 21 can also form a wrapping and reinforcing effect on the connecting section 22 to prevent the table legs 2 from cracking.

[0027] The present invention and its embodiments have been described above illustratively. This description is not restrictive, and the figures shown are only one embodiment of the present invention; the actual structure is not limited thereto. Therefore, if those skilled in the art are inspired by this description and design similar structures and embodiments without departing from the inventive spirit of the present invention, such designs should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
