Definitions

  • This invention relates to a door-type closure device for wall-mounted furniture units.
  • Known wall-mounted furniture units particularly kitchen units, generally consist of a parallelepiped container which is fitted to the room wall at a height generally less than 1.5 m and is closed by one or more doors hinged to the vertical edges of said container.
  • a further drawback is that the space occupied by the open doors is considerable and if lateral light sources are used these open doors create shadow zones which prevent complete illumination of the furniture unit interior.
  • Wall-mounted furniture units are also known which are closed at their front by a single door hinged to the upper horizontal edge.
  • One drawback of this closure system is that the single door can, as in the preceding case, hinder effective illumination of the furniture unit interior.
  • a further drawback is that the door can be kept in its raised (open) position only by the provision of " compasses”, springs or other retention members, which on the one hand represent bulky anti-aesthetic elements, and on the other hand do not enable the door to remain in intermediate positions.
  • a still further drawback is the practical impossibility of completely opening the door, because it would then lie at too high a level and could not be easily gripped by the user, especially if of short stature, in order to close the furniture unit.
  • a door-type closure device for wall-mounted furniture units in the form of a container closable at its front by a pair of doors, characterised by comprising a first door hinged at its upper edge to the front edge of'the container roof, and a second door of height substantially equal to the first and hinged at its upper edge to the lower edge of this latter and having the ends of its lower edge retained by and slidable along two guide rails provided on the front vertical edge of the container side walls, and by further comprising a balancing member comprising at least one cable connected to said lower edge of said second door, and at least one counterweight which is operable from the outside and which when the two doors are completely folded back to open the furniture unit is positioned in correspondence with the base of said container, whereas when the two doors are coplanar to close the furniture unit it is positioned in corrispondence with the roof of said container.
  • the two doors can be connected together by a continuous hinge joint.
  • a section bar allowing sliding and guiding of the lower edge of the lower door can be applied to the front vertical edge of each side wall.
  • each section bar can comprise a front slide and guide channel for a trolley hinged to the lower door.
  • each trolley can be housed in the corresponding front channel and connected to the counterweight by the cable, which passes about a pulley applied to the upper end of said section bar.
  • the counterweight can consist of a horizontal cylindrical bar connected to the cables at its ends.
  • the closure device according to the invention is fitted to a wall-mounted furniture unit in the form of a container indicated overall by 1 , and comprising a base 2, two side walls 3, a roof 4 and a rear wall 5.
  • the container is closed by a pair of doors 6,6', of which the upper door 6 is hinged to the container 1 at the front edge of the roof 4, whereas the lower door 6 ' is hinged to the upper door 6 along their contacting edges, at which a hinge section element 7 is provided allowing mutual 180° rotation to pass from the coplanar configuration in which the furniture unit is closed (Figure 2) to the superposed configuration in which the furniture unit is open ( Figure 4).
  • a section bar 8 preferably of plastics or metal construction is applied to the front vertical edge of each side wall 3 and comprises a rear rib 9 for fixing to the side wall 3, a front channel 10 in which a trolley 11 slides and is guided, and a side channel 12 in which the pivot 13 of a counterweight 14 extending horizontally from one side wall 3 to the other sides and is guided.
  • the channels 10 and 12 are provided with longitudinal deformable approached lips (not shown in the drawings) ensuring the closure of the same channels when they are not engaged by the trolley 11 and the pivot 13 respectively.
  • each channel 10 As statged, inside each channel 10 there: slides a trolley 11 provided with an appendix 15 to: which the lower door 6' is hinged in proximity to the corresponding lateral edge. To the upper end of each section bar 8 there is fitted a block 16 in which there is idly mounted a deviation pulley 17 for a cable 18 connected at one end to the corresponding trolley 1 1 and at its other end to the pivot 13 of the counterweight 14.
  • An element 19 rigid with the upper door 6 is hinged to each block 16.
  • the counterweight 14 consists of a horizontal cylindrical bar provided at its ends with the pivots 13 which slide in the lateral channel 12 of the section bars 8. In its central region the counterweight 14 is provided with a gripping lever 20 retained by a diametrical screw 21 of ferromagnetic material.
  • the angular position of the screw 21 relative to the lever 20 is such that when the lever is in its most downwardly inclined position, ie resting against the front edge of the base 2 of the container 1, the screw 21 is perfectly vertical with its head facing downwards towards a magnet 22 fitted to the base 2 ( Figure 7).
  • a handgrip 23 fitted to the door 6' is pulled slightly forwards sufficiently to displace the two doors 6,6' from their coplanar state. It is then possible to raise the lower door 6' so that it folds on to the door 6 because of their mutual connection and the connection between said door 6 and the container 1.
  • the user grips the lever 20 and lift it. This initially rotates the counterweight 14 with consequent disengagement of the screw 21 from the magnet 22, followed by raising of the counterweight itself. As the counterweight rises, the two rolleys 11 connected thereto by the cables 18 descend and drag the lower door 6' which, being connected to the upper door 6, thus closes the furniture unit.
  • the counterweight has risen to a height beyond the maximum reach of the user, the user continues the closure action by directly pulling the lower edge of the lower door 6' or handgrip 23.
  • the completely closed configuration is stabilised by the actual weight of the two doors 6,6' and preferably by magnets 24 fitted to the section bars 8 and corresponding metal plastes 25 fitted to the lower door 6'.
  • a pair of counterweights are provided, each applied to the cable of the corresponding section bar 8 and also operable from the outside.
