Description

[0008] Further advantages of the invention will emerge from the description, the claims and the drawing. Likewise, the features stated above and those still to be specified can be used each on their own account or multiply in any desired combinations. The embodiments which are shown and described are not to be understood as an exhaustive list, but rather have an exemplary character for describing the invention.

[0009] FIG. 1 shows a plastic furniture wall part according to the invention in a perspective view of the inner side.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0010] The side wall part 1, shown in FIG. 1, of an item of furniture is a one-part plastic injection-molded part and has a lattice-like skeleton structure 2 which is closed toward the outside by an outer wall 3 and is open toward the inside. The skeleton structure 2 comprises an encircling outer frame 4 and a multiplicity of lattice struts 5, which run diagonally here by way of example, therebetween. To fasten the side wall part 1 to a carcass or a room wall, the skeleton structure 2 has, in the lattice struts 5, a plurality of (here merely by way of example four) fastening holes 6 for receiving customary connecting fittings, preferably connector bolts and dowels.

[0011] The skeleton structure 2 has, at the top, an inwardly open recess 7 for receiving a furniture fitting, such as for example a flap fitting or hinge. The recess 7 terminates toward the outside with a lattice-like base 8, which has a plurality of integrated threaded holes 10 for fastening screws of the furniture fitting. The skeleton structure 2 also has a plurality of recesses in the form of fastening holes 11, which are arranged in two vertical hole rows having a plurality of fastening holes 11, in order to receive therein, at the respectively desired height, for example fastening pins for shelves or fastening screws for a pull-out guide. As an alternative, the skeleton structure 2 may also have one or more inwardly protruding functional elements, such as for example a pin. In the region of the fastening holes 11, the skeleton structure 2 is reinforced by a higher number of lattice struts 5. The skeleton structure also has one or more recesses 12, having a for example ring-shaped base 13, for receiving a respective loudspeaker. An inwardly open vertical channel 14, in which an LED light strip can be laid, runs in the skeleton structure 2. A groove 15 for receiving an LED light strip can also run on the outer side in one or more of the frame sides of the outer frame 4. Some of the lattice struts 5 have cable leadthroughs in the form of inwardly open cutouts 16, in order for electrical cables to the installed electrical components (for example loudspeaker, LED light strip) to be laid therein.

[0012] The inwardly pointing end faces of the outer frame 4 and of the lattice struts 5 define a planar support plane, to which a thin cover sheet, for example an HPL sheet with a large selection of surface finishes, can be applied. A cover sheet can be applied to, or a cover film can be laminated onto, the outer wall 3, but this is not required. The side wall part 1, including the HPL covering, advantageously has a thickness of at maximum only 16 mm, which corresponds to the customary thicknesses of wood-based side walls in kitchen construction.
