Description

Prior ArtFurniture parts, for example drawers or furniture flaps guided on guides in a furniture carcass, which are hinged to a furniture carcass via hinges, are frequently produced from prepared base elements. For example, a drawer is assembled from prepared base elements such as two drawer side walls, a rear wall, a front wall and a drawer bottom. For stable and high-quality drawers, hollow metal elements, such as drawer side walls made of metal, are frequently used. It is known to insert elements in metal elements of drawers, for example, in order to reduce or completely eliminate undesirable noises. For example, DE 20 2020 100 158 U1 discloses a sheet metal compartment base and DE 40 04 332 A1 discloses a metallic hollow chamber profile for drawer walls.Object and Advantages of the InventionThe object of the invention is to provide a furniture component of the generic type in an improved manner, in particular with regard to noise minimization during movement or contact with the furniture component.This object is achieved by the independent claims.The dependent claims address advantageous further developments of the invention.The invention is initially based on a furniture component having a first sheet metal side and a second sheet metal side, wherein the first sheet metal side has a first surface and the second sheet metal side has a second surface, wherein the first surface and the second surface are present opposite one another. For example, the furniture component is designed as a drawer component, e.g. as a drawer frame or e.g. as a furniture flap. Hereinafter, for the first and second metal sheet sides, the phrase "the metal sheet sides" is used for convenience.For example, after a joining process which connects the metal sheet sides mechanically in a stable manner for the usual application, surfaces of the metal sheet sides can lie with respect to one another in such a way that contact of surface regions which are not joined can take place by vibration. It is conceivable for the first metal sheet side to be arranged so as to lie against the second metal sheet side. The metal sheets may be formed as separate metal sheets prior to the joining operation or may be a metal sheet that provides opposing overlapping metal sheet strips or opposing overlapping metal sheet sides by bending. Such overlapping regions do not exclude the occurrence of vibrations, which can be caused by knocking or moving, of temporary contact of these opposing sections, which can lead to a "snap" sound, for example.An essential aspect of the invention is that a damping layer is present between the first and second surfaces, which damping layer adheres to the first surface and to the second surface and thus adhesively connects the first and second surfaces. This procedure prevents a relative movement of the opposing surfaces of the metal sheet sides with respect to one another. This prevents the furniture part from being flapped or clipped, in particular when the furniture part is moved or the furniture part strikes.Rather, for example, the operator, through the use of the adhesive damping layer according to the invention, is given the impression of a solid, valuable component.It is also proposed that the first metal sheet side is joined to the second metal sheet side, wherein the type of joining the first metal sheet side to the second metal sheet side is different from the adhesive connection by the damping layer.The most important joining methods include riveting, clinching (clinching) and screwing, and welding, soldering and adhesive bonding using a non-shaped auxiliary material. In particular, joining methods of this type can be used individually or in combination for the joining process. It is also conceivable, however, that joining or a joining method is to be understood as arranging or connecting, e.g. clamping.For example, the joint fundamentally differs in the joining mode from the adhesive connection or, if it is the same joining mode, for example, if it is adhesive, a different adhesive is used for the joint than for the adhesive connection. In particular, the adhesive connection of the damping layer has a smaller, in particular significantly smaller, connecting force than the joint. For example, the adhesive connection can only be loaded half as much or only a quarter as much as the joint at the joint relative to comparably large adhesion surfaces of the joint.Regardless of the type of joint at the joint, the adhesive connection is less than half as resilient or less than a quarter as resilient or even only less than a tenth as resilient as the joint at the joint, in particular with respect to a comparatively large connecting surface.It is likewise proposed that the damping layer is temperature-resistant or specifically enters into an adhesive bond under the influence of temperature.The damping layer is advantageously stable up to 250°, in such a way that the damping layer does not chemically undergo any offset, for example undesirably greatly oxidizes, or its viscosity changes so greatly that it runs out of the component. In a preferred embodiment, the damping layer is stable up to 200° C. For example, the cushioning layer has little or no adhesive effect at room temperature, which leads to an adhesive compound. If, for example, the damping layer is heated to a predetermined temperature, for example greater than 100°, it preferably begins to change, so that after cooling to room temperature, an adhesive compound is formed.It is also proposed that the damping layer comprises an additively applied fluid. For example, the damping layer is formed from an additively applied fluid.For example, the damping layer comprises a lacquer, an adhesive and / or a filler compound, for example spray filler. For example, the damping layer comprises polyethylene terephthalate.It is also conceivable for the cushioning layer to comprise a double-sided adhesive tape. An adhesive connection can thus likewise be produced between opposite surfaces of metal sheet sides.For example, the damping layer is formed from a foam. For example, the cushioning layer comprises a polyurethane foam (PU foam).The layer thickness of the damping layer is, for example, in a range from 0.1 mm to 3 mm. For example, the layer thickness of the damping layer is in a range from 0.1 mm to 1 mm or in a range from 0.1 mm to 0.5 mm.The furniture part can be powder-coated. For example, the furniture part is powder-coated. For example, the surface of a metal sheet side has a powder coating. For example, the surface of the metal sheet side is a powder coating. It is conceivable for the damping layer to be applied to the powder coating. For example, the first and / or the second metal sheet side is powder-coated. For example, the powder coating is present applied to the damping layer.For example, the damping layer is first applied to the first and / or the second metal sheet side and then the first and / or the second metal sheet side is powder-coated. It is conceivable that the surface of the metal sheet side is a metal surface.It is also proposed that the first metal sheet side is a component of a frame wall and the second metal sheet side is a component of a connecting element with the frame front or the frame rear side. For example, the connecting element connects the frame wall to the frame front or the frame rear side.It is further proposed that a damping layer be applied to the first and / or the second surface before a process of joining the metal sheet sides.This measure makes it possible to apply the damping layer to the relevant surfaces without hindrance. The surfaces of the metal sheet sides are preferably freely accessible for a corresponding application of the damping layer before the joining process.The application can be effected by spraying, rolling, painting and / or by application in a bath with a liquid damping layer material.In a further exemplary embodiment of the invention, during the joining process, an adhesive connection of the opposing surfaces of the metal sheet sides is also produced spatially next to the joint or spatially next to the joints by the material of the damping layer.Before the joining process, the damping layer is applied, for example, at the relevant points of the surfaces of a metal sheet side. It is also conceivable that the damping layer is applied at the relevant points of the surfaces of the first and second sheet metal sides before the joining process. During a subsequent joining process, for example, the metal sheet sides are pressed onto one another also next to the joint or next to the joints, so that the intermediate damping layer also adheres to the metal sheet side on which no application of the damping layer took place previously. This is also conceivable because a heating process additionally increases or provides adhesion to opposite metal sheet sides.In a further exemplary embodiment of the invention, an adhesive bond of the opposite surfaces of the metal sheet sides is produced after the joining process. For example, an adhesive bond of the first and the second surface is produced by the material of the damping layer.An adhesive connection can be produced, for example, by pressure and / or temperature after the joining process. For example, the production of the adhesive compound, e.g. a cross-linking of the damping layer in a powder coating process, takes place by the heat input occurring in this case.It is also proposed that after the joining process the powder coating of the furniture component is carried out. It is conceivable that the damping layer is applied before the powder coating. It is conceivable that before the powder coating of the furniture component, the adhesive connection of the first and the second sheet metal side is produced by the damping layer. It is also conceivable that after the powder coating of the furniture component, the adhesive connection of the first and the second metal sheet side is produced by the damping layer.A powder coating is a temperature-affected process, with temperatures of, for example, 150° C. to 200° C. A damping layer applied before the powder coating of the furniture component is, for example, capable of withstanding a temperature control during powder coating in such a way that after the powder coating the damping layer still adhesively connects the opposite metal sheet sides, but is not disadvantageously subject to undesired, in particular chemical, material degradation. It is conceivable that the powder coating of the furniture component increases the adhesive connection effect of the damping layer.Another possibility is that a powder coating takes place before the joining process. As a result, it is possible to use a damping layer which does not have to withstand the process temperatures of a powder coating. The production of the adhesive connection by the damping layer can thus proceed independently of a powder coating process.A further aspect of the invention relates to a piece of furniture having a furniture component according to the invention, for example a drawer wall, such as in particular a drawer frame having a damping layer according to the invention.DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGURESFurther features and advantages of the invention are explained in more detail below with reference to a schematically illustrated exemplary embodiment.In detail, the following shows: FIG. 1 is a perspective view from obliquely laterally front above of a furniture component in the form of a drawer, FIG. 2 shows the drawer according to FIG. 1 in a perspective view obliquely from laterally above, wherein the front component of the drawer is kept invisible, FIG. 3 shows a perspective view obliquely from the side front of a drawer side wall with a connecting element arranged thereon for connecting to the front component of the drawer and a connecting element arranged thereon for connecting to a rear wall of the drawer, FIG. 4 shows the arrangement according to FIG. 3 in a perspective view in an exploded illustration, FIG. 5 shows a perspective view obliquely from the side to the rear of the connecting element for connecting the drawer side wall to the front component of the drawer, FIG. 6 shows a perspective view obliquely from the side to the rear of the connecting element for connecting the drawer side wall to the rear wall of the drawer, FIG. 7 shows a perspective view obliquely from the side in front of the connecting element for connecting the drawer side wall to the rear wall of the drawer, FIG. 8 shows the connecting element in the view according to FIG. 6 for connecting the drawer side wall to the rear wall of the drawer with the drawer side wall arranged thereon, wherein the drawer side wall is illustrated only partially and semi-transparent, and FIG. 9 shows the connecting element in the view according to FIG. 7 for connecting the drawer side wall to the rear wall of the drawer with the drawer side wall arranged thereon, wherein the drawer side wall is illustrated only partially and semi-transparent.FIG. 1 shows a furniture component in the form of a drawer 1.
