Leg latching device for a table, and a table incorporating same
A table having a table top, a bracket secured to the table top, a latching device coupled to the bracket, the latching device having a retaining wedge coupled to a draw latch via a cam device, and a table leg. The draw latch is configured to move the retaining wedge between a first position securing the table leg to the bracket and a second position unsecuring the table leg from the bracket.
LEG LATCHING DEVICE FOR A TABLE, AND A TABLE INCORPORATING SAME
A table having a table top, a bracket secured to the table top, a latching device coupled to the bracket, the latching device having a retaining wedge coupled to a draw latch via a cam device, and a table leg. The draw latch is configured to move the retaining wedge between a first position securing the table leg to the bracket and a second position unsecuring the table leg from the bracket.
SHELF DIVIDER
The shelf divider has a panel for separating objects on a shelf and a clamp for attaching the panel to a shelf. The lower jaw of the clamp contacts the lower wall of the shelf while the upper jaw contacts the upper wall. A row of teeth is provided on the outer edge of the panel and slides in an upwardly extending groove in the lower jaw. A detent is formed in the groove and is normally out of engagement with the teeth until an upward force is applied to the lower jaw for causing pivotal movement of the row of teeth about the upper jaw with resulting engagement of the detent with the teeth and simultaneous locking of the clamp to the shelf.
Composed element and rear wall construction applied herewith
A composed element, such as a piece of furniture, wherein the composed element comprises at least a rear wall, as well as a number of constructional parts forming a whole in which the rear wall has to be provided. The rear wall forms the rear side of the composed element and includes one or more rear wall parts. The composed element comprises seats for installing at least one of the rear wall parts, which are configured such that the rear wall part can be slid into the seats starting from the rear side of the composed element from a position differing from the final plane in which the rear wall part will be situated in the final condition.
Spring clip upright connection for rack shelving
A spring clip upright connection for rack shelving includes one upright with tabs and square cutouts and another upright with slots with metal spring clips. As the tabs of one upright are inserted into the slots of the other upright, the uprights are aligned and the spring metal clips open up. When the tabs are fully inserted, the clips latch into the cutouts of the slots of the other upright thereby engaging the upright sections together. This latching prevents one upright from being removed from the other upright while the slots and tabs maintain the appropriate alignment of the uprights.
Joining system with front actuation axis for furniture
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.
System, apparatus and method for mounting a device
A mounting apparatus includes a back plate, at least one lower receiving channel adjacent to a lower edge of the back plate and configured to receive a lower holding tab of a line-replaceable unit, at least one upper receiving channel adjacent to an upper edge of the back plate and configured to receive an upper holding tab of the line-replaceable unit, and at least one tensioning member configured to urge the lower holding tab and the upper holding tab into the at least one lower receiving channel and the at least one upper receiving channel, respectively.
Joint assembly for piece of furniture and piece of furniture
A joint assembly includes a structural body having a key which projects cantilevered from an abutment surface. The key includes a stem with a first stem portion having a reduced transverse encumbrance, and a second stem portion from which fins project and define locking surfaces. A seat body includes an abutment counter-surface facing the abutment surface. A seat is formed by opening from the abutment counter-surface, which delimits a key entry slot. A first seat portion proximate the entry slot allows insertion of the key if the fins are aligned with the entry slot. A second seat portion internal and opposite the entry slot widens to allow free rotation of the key. The seat body forms locking counter-surfaces having an inclined plane portion moving away from the entry slot so that key rotation brings the abutment surface in force-contact against the abutment counter-surface, creating a firm frictional fit.
Piece of display furniture for disglaying goods
A piece of furniture, in particular in the form of a piece of display furniture and preferably in the form of a piece of display furniture for displaying goods, further preferably a piece of modular-construction furniture in the form of a rack or cabinet, comprising a plurality of furniture elements, designed preferably as display-furniture elements, in the form of surface-area elements (1, 2) and connecting elements (4), it being possible for the latter to be fitted on narrow sides of the surface-area elements (1, 2), wherein the connection on the narrow sides, it being possible for said connection to be released without the use of tools, takes place via a tongue structure which can be introduced into a groove structure, preferably via a tongue which can be introduced into a groove or via a multiple tongue, designed at least in the form of a double tongue, which can be introduced into a multiple groove, designed at least in the form of a double groove, and wherein the furniture elements (1, 2, 4) are secured via the groove/tongue connection in a direction transverse to the surface-area extent of the surface-area element (1, 2) and, in addition, counter to the direction of introduction via the interaction of at least one magnet (6), arranged on one furniture element, and of a further magnetically attractable part, arranged on the adjacent furniture element, such that two surface-area elements (2, 1) which are arranged one beside the other or directly at a corner are connected via just one connecting element (4).
Device for assembly/joining of parts of modular furniture and furnishing accessories
An assembly/joining device (10) for parts or components of modular furniture and furnishing accessories of the shelf units, bookcases, cupboards, bed frames type and the like, including a pin (12) and a bushing (14) inserted in dedicated seats made in the components of the furniture to be joined and attached rigidly one with respect to the other, the pin (12) which includes a ferrule (24) elastically retractable internally to the pin apt to couple with the bushing (14) and co-operating with guide elements of the bushing (14) for a coupling/uncoupling between the pin (12) and bushing (14) during assembly/disassembly of the furniture parts.
