MODULAR SYSTEM FOR BUILDING FURNITURE USING ALUMINIUM PROFILES

Abstract

Constituted from aluminum profiles object of the present invention is constituted from a set of extruded aluminum profiles, more or less long and rectangular, which make up the walls, the base and the ceiling, forming in itself the structure of the furniture, and that present at their ends double terminations in the form of a hitch that allow linking and fixing each other varying the dimension of the bottom of the furniture. They also include a slot to house a silicone rubber, tubular reinforcements to improve grip by screws, a space to fix metal plates that will make the bottom, and an increase in interior thickness at certain points to improve grip by fixing screws for hinges, shelf supports, or any other accessory.

4. Modular system of furniture construction from aluminum profiles, according to claim 1, characterized because the profiles comprise a space (14) that form the chair that is shorter of the two along with an extension perpendicular (15) to the extension of the profile that contains the facing clamp to place a metal plate (18) that would make the background of the furniture.

5. Modular system of furniture construction from aluminum profiles, according to claim 1, characterized by the fact that both the main pieces (4) and the so-called third type (6) comprise a groove (16) that runs along its face (7) that is visible to insert a silicone rubber to isolate the interior of the furniture when there are doors.

6. Modular system of furniture construction from aluminum profiles, according to claim 1, characterized because all the main profiles comprise a reinforcement (17) in the form of an increase in interior thickness to improve grip by fixing screws for hinges, shelf supports, or any other accessory that may carry a kitchen or bathroom cabinet in particular.

7. Modular system of furniture construction from aluminum profiles, according to claim 1, characterized by two different sizes of secondary pieces (5) in which their only difference is the length between the double snags (3) from one end (2) to the other of the profile.

DESCRIPTION OF A PREFERRED REALIZATION

[0056] A preferential realization of the modular system of furniture construction from aluminum profiles object of the present invention, with allusion to numerical references, can be based on a set of extruded aluminum profiles (1), more or less long and rectangular, which make up the walls, the base and the ceiling, forming in itself the structure of the furniture, and that they have at their ends (2) double hitch finishes (3) that allow linking and fixing each other by varying the dimension of the bottom of the furniture.

[0057] According to the number of ends (2) with double coupling (3) to link some profiles with others, these profiles can be classified into main (4), secondary (5) and tertiary or third type (6). The main ones (4) have a flat face (7) which is the one that is visible and an end (2) with double hitch (3) that faces the wall or bottom; secondary (5) have snags (3) at both ends (2); and those of the third type (6) have no snags.

[0058] The union by means of a double coupling termination (3) to link some profiles with others and increase or decrease the bottom of the furniture consists, at one end (2), in the continuation of the lateral faces of the profile (8), one more than the other, and both finished in loops facing inwards (9), and comprising the other end (2) where it also couples an extension of their faces, again one more than the other, and both finished in loops but facing outwards (10), having modified the prolongation of the faces of the profile at two angles of 45 degrees (11) so that they are aligned internally with the loops of the hitch to be coupled.

[0059] The union between profiles that form the walls with the profiles that make the base or ceiling, or the union between profiles that form the walls with the so-called third type profiles is made by screws, where these profiles have, inside the rectangle that form them, circular tubular reinforcements of non-complete arch (12) and, on the outside of one of its faces, a mark aligned (13) with the axis of these tubular reinforcements (12) to give consistency to the union of 90 degrees. The joint itself is achieved by practicing a small drill on the outer face of the furniture, and the screw crosses the inner face of the profile and threads on the tubular reinforcement (12) of the other piece.

[0060] The bottom of the furniture is covered by aluminum plate (18),which is anchored to the profiles inserted by the space (14) that form the loop that is shorter of the two along with an extension perpendicular (15) to the extension of the profile that contains the facing clamp.

[0061] Both the main pieces (4) and the so-called third type (6) all have a groove (16) that runs along their faces (7) that give the view to insert a silicone rubber to isolate the interior of the furniture when there are doors.

[0062] All the main profiles include a reinforcement (17) in the form of an increase in interior thickness close to the flat face (7) that is visible, to improve the grip by fixing screws for hinges, shelf supports, or any other accessory that can carry a kitchen or bathroom cabinet in particular.

[0063] In a different embodiment there may be different secondary parts (5) in which their only difference is the length from one end of the profile to the other.
