Description

[0001] The present invention relates to a rotating element according to the preamble of claim 1. The invention further relates to a piece of furniture and a method for positioning a translation-rotation fitting of a rotating element.

[0002] A generic rotary element in the form of a furniture element that can be moved translationally and rotationally is known, for example, from DE 10 2019 109 866 A1.

[0003] The translational-rotational fitting of the rotary element known from the above-mentioned publication enables a collision-free translational-rotational movement from a body of furniture surrounding the furniture element or from a corner of a room, whereby the rotary element reaches an end opening position after completing a 180° rotation.

[0004] This ensures, for example, in a case where two sides of a cuboid rotating element are covered by side walls or panels, reliable protection of the objects stored in the rotating element in the closed position and good accessibility of the objects after the rotating element has been rotated into its end opening position.

[0005] Such a rotating element has proven itself in practice.

[0006] It has turned out to be problematic that the translational-rotational movement is always tailored to a predetermined cross-sectional area of ​​the rotating element, so that suitable translational-rotational fittings must be provided for different rotating elements with predetermined cross-sectional areas.

[0007] The object of the present invention is to further develop a rotary element of the generic type in such a way that a translational-rotational fitting can be used in rotary elements with different cross-sectional areas, viewed in the plane of the translational-rotational movement.

[0008] This object is achieved by a rotating element having the features of claim 1.

[0009] The stated problem is also solved by a piece of furniture having the features of claim 9 and by a method having the features of claim 12.

[0010] The rotating element according to the invention has a cuboid-shaped body with a floor, a ceiling and support elements connecting the floor to the ceiling, in particular posts and / or at least one side wall.

[0011] The rotary element further comprises at least one translation-rotation fitting which is arranged on an underside of the floor and / or on an upper side of the ceiling, with which the rotary element can be moved in a combined translation-rotation movement from an initial position to an opening end position and back to the initial position.

[0012] The translation-rotation fitting itself has a base plate and a rotating plate that is translationally and simultaneously rotationally guided relative to the base plate and can be attached to the floor or ceiling.

[0013] The rotating plate is movable relative to the base plate in such a way that the body, during the translational-rotational movement, does not exceed two imaginary boundary lines in a predetermined angular range of 90° or 180°, which are formed by adjacent outer edges of the body aligned at right angles to one another in its initial position.

[0014] A positioning plate is arranged between the turntable and the floor or ceiling of the body.

[0015] The positioning plate can be attached to the rotating plate in different predetermined positions.

[0016] The predetermined positions are selected such that, with or without a panel(s) attached to the body, selected from a set of panels with predetermined material thicknesses, by which the width and / or depth of the rotating element changes, adjacent outer edges of the rotating element, which are opposite the outer edges of the body and are aligned at right angles to one another, lie on the imaginary boundary lines in the opening end position of the rotating element.

[0017] With a rotating element designed in this way according to the invention, the variable attachment option of the rotating plate to the floor and / or ceiling of the body of the rotating element now makes it possible to equip the body of such a rotating element with no panel or at least one panel of different material thickness. If necessary, after selecting the panel, the translational-rotational fitting can be positioned on the floor and / or ceiling in such a way that a collision-free translational-rotational movement is possible, adapted to the material thickness of the panel(s) and achieving a uniform panel appearance with the adjacent furniture element. This also includes the omission of panels if the adjacent furniture element does not have a panel.

[0018] Ideally, the positioning plate can be attached to the floor and / or ceiling directly during pre-assembly of the rotating element itself. The rotating plate of the translation-rotation fitting is then attached to the positioning plate at a predetermined position after selecting the cover or omitting a cover.

[0019] Advantageous embodiments of the invention are the subject of the subclaims.

[0020] In order to easily position the rotating plate on the positioning plate depending on the panel to be attached, the positioning plate and / or the rotating plate has a plurality of holes for receiving fastening means, in particular bolts or screws, in order to fix the positioning plate relative to the rotating plate in a suitable position depending on the material thickness of the at least one panel.

[0021] The holes can be arranged as a predetermined hole pattern in the positioning plate or the rotating plate, which are adapted to predetermined material thicknesses of different panels that can be mounted on the body of the rotating element.

[0022] As an alternative to such a plurality of holes, it is also conceivable according to an alternative embodiment that the positioning plate and / or the rotating plate has a plurality of locking receptacles for receiving at least one bolt in one of the locking receptacles in order to fix the positioning plate relative to the rotating plate in a suitable position depending on the material thickness of the at least one cover or in the case of no cover.

[0023] Here, at least one bolt can be attached to the positioning plate or the rotating plate and the associated locking receptacle(s) can be attached to the other of the plates.

[0024] According to a preferred embodiment, the positioning plate is arranged integrated into the body, for example in an area below a visible floor and / or a visible ceiling of the body.

[0025] Such a variant is particularly suitable for industrial processing technology, which offers the advantages of a standardized system.

[0026] For easy mounting of the positioning plate on the floor and / or lid of the body, the positioning plate according to a further preferred embodiment has at least one mounting groove into which a bolt protruding from the floor and / or the ceiling can be inserted and locked.

[0027] To further stabilize the assembly, according to a further preferred embodiment of the rotating element, a side edge of the components lying on top of each other, namely the rotating plate, the positioning plate and the floor or ceiling, is enclosed by a profile.

[0028] According to an advantageous embodiment, this profile has a receptacle on an inner side of a central wall into which a locking lug formed on a lateral elevation of the positioning plate projects.

[0029] According to an alternative embodiment of the rotating element according to the invention, the rotating plate is arranged directly in the rotating element or on the floor and / or ceiling of the body.

[0030] With this variant, the drilling positions for securing the rotating plate to the floor or ceiling can be advantageously selected depending on the material thickness of the panel(s) to be installed. This can be done using a drilling template, a value table, a computer program, or a mobile application.

[0031] This variant is particularly suitable for a manual design scope of the rotating element, in which the translation-rotation fitting and the body of the rotating element are considered separately.

[0032] According to a further embodiment of the rotary element according to the invention, the rotational portion of the movement between the starting position and the opening end position is 90° or 180°.

[0033] The furniture according to the invention with a furniture body and a furniture element rotatably mounted in the furniture body is characterized in that the furniture element is designed as a rotating element according to one of the preceding claims.

[0034] According to one embodiment of the furniture, at least one further furniture element is arranged adjacent to the rotating element, wherein one of the outer edges of the rotating element opposite the outer edges of the body is aligned in the starting position of the rotating element in alignment with a front surface of the further furniture element.

[0035] In a case where a panel is arranged on a front side of the rotating element and a panel is arranged on a front side of the body of the further furniture element, the material thickness of the panel(s) of the rotating element preferably corresponds to the material thickness of the panel of the further furniture element.

[0036] The method according to the invention for positioning a translation-rotation fitting of the claimed rotary element on the floor or ceiling of the body, wherein the width and depth of the body is equal to the width and depth of the floor and ceiling, comprises the following method steps: Selecting one or more panel(s) with a predetermined material thickness, entering the width and depth of the body and the material thickness of the panel(s) into a computer program, checking whether the selected panel(s) for the selected body are within a predetermined material thickness range, calculating the coordinates of holes to be drilled in the floor and / or ceiling. If the result of the check is positive, drilling the holes at the calculated coordinates of the floor and / or ceiling and attaching the translation-rotation fitting to the floor and / or ceiling of the body at the calculated coordinates.

[0037] With this method, in particular the manual design of the rotating element, in which the translation-rotation fitting and the body of the rotating element are considered separately, can be carried out in a simple manner, since on the one hand the use of panels with certain material thicknesses can be checked for feasibility before assembly and on the other hand the coordinates for holes to be drilled for the appropriate positioning of the translation-rotation fitting on the floor and / or ceiling of the body are provided directly, which enables material and working time savings.

[0039] In the following description of the figures, terms such as top, bottom, left, right, front, back, etc., refer exclusively to the exemplary representation and position of the furniture, rotating element, body, floor, ceiling, rotating plate, positioning plate, panel, and the like chosen in the respective figures. These terms are not to be understood as limiting; i.e., these references may change due to different working positions or mirror-symmetrical design, etc.

[0040] In the Figures 1 and 2 The reference number 1 designates an exemplary piece of furniture.

[0041] The furniture 1 essentially consists of a furniture body 3 with one or more furniture elements 32, for example in the form of drawers or interior spaces closed by doors, as well as a ceiling 33 and a floor not provided with reference symbols here, which is supported for example by feet 35, which are covered at least on one front side and sides by a cover strip 36.

[0042] The furniture 1 further comprises at least one cuboidal rotating element 2, which, as a comparison of the Figures 1 and 2 shows, from one in Figure 1 shown closed position, in which an interior of the rotary element 2 is closed by panels 26, can be moved by a combined translation-rotation movement into an open position, as shown in Figure 2is shown. The rotating element 2 is arranged adjacent to a partition wall 31 of the furniture body 3.

[0043] The rotational component of the movement between the starting position and the opening end position is preferably 90° (rotating element 2 with a square base area) or 180° (rotating element 2 with a square or rectangular base area).

[0044] The rotating element 2 can, as shown in the Figure 2 shown as an example, in addition to a base 22 and a Figure 6 shown ceiling 23 have one or more shelves 27 which are supported or carried by supporting elements, here in the form of two side walls 25 and a post 24.

[0045] The base 22, the ceiling 23 and the support elements together form a body 21 of the rotating element 2.

[0046] An example of a translation-rotation fitting 4 is shown in Figure 4Such a translation-rotation fitting 4 is arranged on an underside of the floor 22 and / or on an upper side of the ceiling 23.

[0047] Alternatively, a translational-rotational fitting according to WO 2020 212 373 A1 or in another embodiment can also be arranged on an underside of the floor and / or on an upper side of the ceiling.

[0048] With the translation-rotation fitting 4, the rotary element 2 is in a combined translation-rotation movement from a Figure 1 shown starting position into a Figure 2 shown opening end position and back to the starting position.

[0049] The translation-rotation fitting 4 has a base plate 41 and a rotating plate 42 that is translationally and rotationally movable relative to the base plate 41. The rotating plate 42 is fixedly attached to the floor 22 and / or the ceiling 23 of the rotating element 2. The base plate 41 is fixedly attached to the floor element 29 and / or the ceiling 33.

[0050] The rotary plate 42 is movable relative to the base plate 41 in such a way that the body 21 during the translational rotational movement in a predetermined angular range of 90° or 180° does not exceed two imaginary boundary lines which are formed by adjacent outer edges 2A of the body 21 aligned at right angles to one another in its Figure 1 shown starting position.

[0051] The relevant outer edges 2A of the body 21 are in Fig. 2 angozgen, but there already rotated by 180° into the final opening position of the body 21.

[0052] In a variant, such as that used in the Figures 6 to 18 As shown, a positioning plate 5 is arranged between the rotating plate 42 and the floor 22 and / or the ceiling 23 of the body 21, which positioning plate can be fastened to the rotating plate 42 in mutually different predetermined positions.

[0053] These predetermined positions are selected such that with or without panel(s) attached to the body 21, selected from a set of panels with predetermined material thicknesses d 1 , d 2 , by which the width and / or depth of the rotating element 2 changes, adjacent outer edges 2B of the rotating element 2, which are opposite the outer edges 2A of the body and are aligned at right angles to one another, lie on the imaginary boundary lines in the opening end position of the rotating element 2.

[0054] In other words, the rotating plate 42 can be variably positioned in predetermined positions relative to the body depending on the material thickness d 1 , d 2 of the panel or panels 26 to be attached to the body 21 on the floor 22 and / or the ceiling 23 such that in a plane of the translational-rotational movement a center point of the rotating element 2 with or without the panel 26 attached to the body 21 has the same surface coordinates in the starting position and the opening end position.

[0055] This means that due to the variable positioning of the rotating plate 42 relative to the floor 22 and / or the ceiling 23, when the body 21 of a rotating element 2 is present, panels of different material thickness can be variably attached to the body 21 without having to use a special translation-rotation fitting 4 for each of these or having to provide a special body 21 depending on the material thickness of the panels 26.

[0056] For easy positioning of the positioning plate 5 on the rotary plate 42, the positioning plate 5 and / or the rotary plate 42 has, according to an example shown in the Figures 11 and 12 illustrated embodiment has several holes 51 for receiving bolts 6 or screws in order to position the positioning plate 5 relative to the rotary plate 42 depending on the material thickness d 1 , d 2 (shown in Figure 13 ) of the panels 26 in a suitable position to each other.

[0057] In Figure 13 The double cross drawn in the rotating element 2 shows a displacement of the centers M 1 , M 2 of the rotating element 2, which results from different material thicknesses d 1 , d 2 of the apertures 26 arranged on the rotating element 2.

[0058] Thus, the thicknesses of the panels 26 of the rotating element 2 can be easily adapted to the thicknesses of the panels 34 of the furniture elements 32, while simultaneously achieving optimal movement of the rotating element 2. The same applies if the rotating element 2 and the furniture elements 32 do not have panels.

[0059] In the Figures 11 and 12 It can also be seen that the bolts 6, which in the example shown protrude from the rotating plate 42 in the direction of the positioning plate 5, are positioned in different holes.

[0060] The positioning plate 5 is preferably arranged integrated into the body 21.

[0061] For easy mounting of the positioning plate 5 on the floor 22 and / or the ceiling 23 (shown in the Figures 6 - 10) The positioning plate 5 has at least one mounting groove 53 into which a bolt 7 protruding from the floor 22 or the ceiling 23 can be inserted and locked. For easy positioning of the positioning plate 5 relative to the rotating plate 42, a mounting groove 53 can also be arranged in the rotating plate 42 and a bolt 7 in the positioning plate 42, or vice versa.

[0062] The bolt 7, shown in detail in Figure 7 , has a head 72 that is guided in the mounting groove 53 into a locking receptacle 54, which holds the head 72 of the bolt 7 in a vertical direction in an undercut. A shaft 71 extends from the bolt head 72 and is fixed in the ceiling 23.

[0063] At the transition between the shaft 71 and the bolt head 72, a step 73 is formed, the diameter of which is adapted to the locking receptacle 54 in order to be able to haptically detect the final position of the positioning plate 5 on the floor 22 or the ceiling 23.

[0064] In the Figures 14 and 15 In the embodiment shown, instead of the hole pattern consisting of a plurality of holes 51 in the positioning plate 5, a plurality of locking receptacles 52 are provided for receiving at least one bolt 6 in one of the locking receptacles 52 in order to fix the positioning plate 5 relative to the rotating plate 42 depending on the material thickness d 1 , d 2 of the panels 26 and a matching position.

[0065] The locking receptacles 52 are here, as in Figure 15 As can be seen, it is designed in the form of holes merging into one another. It is of course also conceivable to provide the locking receptacles 52 on the rotating plate 42 and to allow the bolts to protrude from the positioning plate 5 accordingly.

[0066] As in the Figures 15 - 18 As shown, a side edge of the superimposed components, rotating plate 42, positioning plate 5 and base 22 or ceiling 23, is framed by a profile 8.

[0067] The profile 8 is designed, for example, as an aluminum profile. The profile 8 essentially has two parallel legs, a first leg 81 and a second leg 82, which are connected at one end by a central wall 83, thus forming a U-shaped receptacle for the aforementioned components.

[0068] How to continue in the Figures 16 to 18 As shown, the profile 8 has a receptacle 84 on an inner side of the central wall 83, into which a locking lug 56 formed on a lateral elevation 55 of the positioning plate 5 projects.

[0069] This means that the profile 8 is securely fixed to the components lying on top of each other. As a comparison of the Figures 16 to 18 shows, the rotating plate 42 protrudes further or less far into the profile 8 with a lateral web 421, depending on the positioning of the rotating plate 42 to the positioning plate 5.

[0070] In an alternative embodiment, the rotating plate 42 is arranged directly on the floor 22 or the ceiling 23 of the body 21.

[0071] To fix the turntable 42 to the floor 22 or the ceiling 23 of the body 21, holes are drilled into the floor 22 or the ceiling 23 in order to fix the turntable 42 at the intended position with the floor 22 or the ceiling 23.

[0072] To determine the optimal arrangement of the rotating plate 42 to the floor 22 or the ceiling 23 depending on the material thickness d 1 , d 2 of the selectable panels 26, for example, a drilling template, a value table, a computer program or a mobile application can be used.

[0073] A method for positioning a translation-rotation fitting 4 of the rotary element 2 accordingly comprises the following method steps: First, one or more aperture(s) 26 are selected from a set of apertures with predetermined material thicknesses d 1 , d 2 .

[0074] The selected material thickness d 1 , d 2 of the panel(s) as well as the width and depth of the body 21 are then entered into an input interface of a computer program.

[0075] The computer program can be installed on a PC or a mobile device, for example, as an application. The computer program can be suitable for displaying or visualizing the entered data, presenting the furniture in an interactive virtual environment (virtual reality) or a mixture of real and virtual environments (AR: augmented reality).

[0076] It is then checked whether the selected panel(s) for the selected body 21 are within a predetermined material thickness range.

[0077] Subsequently, the coordinates of the holes to be drilled in the floor 22 and / or the ceiling 23 are calculated if the result of the check is positive.

[0078] The calculated data are output via an output interface of the computer program, so that the holes can then be made at the calculated coordinates of the floor 22 and / or the ceiling 23 and the translation-rotation fitting 4 can be attached to the floor and / or the ceiling 23 of the body 21 at the calculated coordinates.

[0079] When using a computer program or a mobile application, all necessary parameters, such as dimensions of the floor element 29, dimensions of the body 21, thickness of the side walls 25, thickness of the panels 26, etc., can be entered, and after the calculation, the position of the holes in the floor 22 or in the ceiling 23 can be output.

[0080] This makes the assembly of the rotating element 2 much easier.

[0081] This computer program can also detect possible collisions caused by the use of unsuitable body dimensions and panel thicknesses in advance, thus preventing malfunctions on the mounted rotating element 2.

[0082] The Figures 19 to 21 show the arrangement of the rotating plate 42 relative to the base 22 in different arrangements.

[0083] In this example, the base plate 41 is arranged on a floor element 29 with feet 28 for positioning the rotating element 2 on a room floor. The rotating element 2 can be attached in the lower area to the furniture body 3 or the other furniture elements 32 via the floor element 29. List of reference symbols
