The present invention generally relates to an improved furniture connector designed to firmly attach two portions of furniture without the need for tools. The connector is designed to fit into a void within a first surface in much the same manner as a prior art cam connector. When a connector stud in a second surface is inserted into the improved furniture connector, a flexible tab accepts the stud and holds it firmly along a chamfered edge within the connector. Disassembly is then possible as the flexible tab can be released to remove the connector stud.

A drawer arrangement includes a drawer sidewall having a locking device including a locking lever pre-stressed by a spring, and a wall element to be transversely connected to the drawer sidewall. The wall element, in a connected condition with the drawer sidewall, includes a fastening surface facing towards the drawer sidewall, and a bearing surface facing away from the fastening surface. A furniture fitting separate from the wall element connects the wall element to the drawer sidewall, and the furniture fitting is to be releasably locked to the locking lever of the locking device of the drawer sidewall. The furniture fitting, when the wall element is connected with the drawer sidewall, bears at least partially against the bearing surface of the wall element so that the wall element is held on the drawer sidewall by the locking of the furniture fitting with the locking device of the drawer sidewall.

A present application is directed to a shelving system having a coupling system comprising a tab coupler and a socket coupler, said tab coupler comprising a locking tab extending from a locking face along a locking axis and configured with a round, T-like sectioned shape; said socket coupler comprising a U-shaped locking socket projecting from a mounting face of the socket coupler along a coupler axis and configured with a U-shaped tab arresting groove; the coupling system is configurable between an unlocked position whereat the locking socket slidingly receives the locking tab so that the locking axis and the coupler axis coincide, and a locked position upon rotating one of the tab coupler and the socket coupler about the coinciding axes, entailing snugly arresting of the locking tab by the locking socket, preventing sliding displacement and axial displacement along the coinciding axes.

The invention relates to a platform for a variably adaptable piece of furniture and to a piece of furniture with such a platform. The platform has a base, a column and a mounting bracket for mounting interchangeable accessory modules. The universal mounting bracket has a mechanical mounting interface for mounting and dismounting interchangeable accessory modules. The platform has electrical functionality. The platform also has an identification interface for identifying an accessory module mounted on the platform and a control unit. The control unit is adapted to receive identification information about an accessory module mounted on the platform from the identification interface and to control an adaptation of the electrical functionality of the platform depending on the received identification information.

Knock down sectional couches and related wedge sections and methods. In accordance with an example, a knock down wedge section for use with a sectional couch includes a wedge-shaped seat and a pair of back sections. The wedge-shaped seat having a front portion, a back portion including a first back portion and a second back portion, and lateral portions. Each of the first back portion and the second back portion carries a pair of male knock down bracket portions. Each back section carries a pair of female knock down bracket portions. Each female knock down bracket portion is adapted to receive and form a coupling with a corresponding male knock down bracket portion.

A lazy susan fitting for a cabinet having a top wall and a bottom wall has a supporting column of constant length, a top mount, a bottom mount, and a shelf supported at the supporting column. The top mount and a top end of the supporting column are configured to allow for mounting the supporting column to the top mount fixed to the top wall by moving the supporting column tilted out of the vertical in the top mount from below beyond a final installation position, and for aligning the supporting column in the top mount to the vertical. The bottom mount and the bottom end of the supporting column are configured for mounting the supporting column to the bottom mount fixed to the bottom wall by inserting the supporting column aligned to the vertical into the bottom mount from above.

A joining system for use in furniture and furnishing items with a bottom and a shoulder has a front actuation axis under the bottom and includes a front joining unit and a rear joining unit positioned between the bottom and the shoulder of the furniture or furnishing item. A connection group is inserted in each front and rear joining unit and is aligned with a symmetry axis of the bottom, and a blocking group of the front and rear joining units is attached beneath the thickness of the bottom. The front joining unit provides an actuation and supporting member toward the rear joining unit, and the blocking group provides a grub screw inserted in a casing and caused to slide by way of a conical rack and pinion system, to be received in a bevel in the pin.

Disclosed is an assembly-friendly table frame, which relates to the field of lift tables. The table frame includes an upright and a base stand mounted to the underside of the upright; one of the base stand or the upright is securely coupled with a connecting member, and the other thereof is provided with a locking bump; the connecting member includes an insert-fitting rail and a locking slot provided in the insert-fitting rail; the locking bump is sequentially inserted into the insert rail and slid to be snapped into the locking slot; the table frame further includes an ejector member configured to eject the locking bump out of the locking slot. Further disclosed is a table applying the table frame. An advantage of the present disclosure lies in enhancing convenience of assembly and disassembly between the upright and the base stand.

An adaptor for facilitating mounting of a shelf divider for pivoting around an axis perpendicular to uniformly spaced apart wires of a shelf include a frame having side members that are fixedly spaced apart, an axle extending between the side members on which a shelf divider can be pivotably mounted, and snap-fit connectors configured to releasably secure the adaptor onto spaced apart parallel wires of a wire shelf.

A connection assembly for securing a support member to a work surface (e.g., a table leg to a table top) that includes an attachment plate, a retainer, and a fitting. The attachment plate connects to a bottom surface of the table top, the fitting connects to an upper end of the table leg, and the retainer exerts a force on the fitting that helps absorb or take up tolerances within the connection assembly so that the support member is securely connected to the work surface. In one example, the retainer is a resilient component that is compressed between the fitting and a receiving portion of the attachment plate to help take up tolerances within the connection assembly, whereas in another example the retainer is a rotatable component that exerts a force against the fitting to address tolerances and the like. A method for providing a connection assembly is also disclosed.
