Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the construction of office furniture, and in particular of so-called "modular" office furniture, that is to say consisting of a limited number of units capable of being joined together for create furniture of shapes and dimensions appropriate to the needs.
  • Such furniture arranged so as to include means for the passage of the electric power supply conductors of the devices which they carry, these means having at the same time the particularity of concealing these conductors, of protecting them and of allow to have them in the immediate vicinity of each device, regardless of its location.
  • such a piece of furniture consists of a tray carried by a metal frame resting on feet, and the supply conductors of the devices carried by this tray run outside towards their sockets, generally at ground level. .
  • a piece of furniture carries several devices, it quickly creates an inconvenient, unattractive entanglement likely to damage conductors and devices.
  • Document DE-A-34 18 162 thus describes a work table intended for receiving computer systems, and it is specified there that on the longitudinal side of this table, facing the user, is provided a sheet metal gutter intended to receive the control box and the various cables for supplying the switchgear, but without further details as to the means of connecting said cables and the devices which they must supply.
  • the invention makes it possible to solve all the problems mentioned above, by extremely simple means, involving furniture of the type considered only minor design modifications, therefore not affecting their price and not complicating their use.
  • Appatus means both the various machines such as typewriters, computers, tape recorders, lighting fixtures, telephone sets and the like, so the term “conductors” should be used in its greatest generality, including coaxial cables, high voltage cables, low voltage cables and the like.
  • the frame of a modular office furniture is made up of elements, each of which consists of a metal profile having a horizontal face for fixing to the furniture top, a substantially vertical rear face and a front face. ornamental in nature, the horizontal face and the front face being separated by a space opening below the end of the plate, the invention consisting in that all of the electrical conductors supplying all the devices carried by the tray are housed in at least one of said profiles and the connections of each of these devices with the corresponding conductors are ensured by passing through said space, each at the point closest to the device considered, all of the elements constituting for the piece of furniture a frame having the role both of supporting the table top of the piece of furniture and of serving as a means of guiding, supporting and concealing all of the electrical conductors supplying all the devices carried by said plate, allowing the connection of each device with the corresponding conductors at the point of said conductor closest to this device, each element being secured to the next by means of a corner gusset fixed to the
  • Such a profile preferably has along one of its longitudinal edges defining said space a rim ensuring its rigidity.
  • the furniture tray rests on the horizontal faces of the frame formed by these profiles, and preferably a rubber lip is pinched between this face and the frame so as to be placed in front of said space to protect and conceal it, while authorizing the introduction or extraction of a conductor at any point along said space.
  • a rubber lip is pinched between this face and the frame so as to be placed in front of said space to protect and conceal it, while authorizing the introduction or extraction of a conductor at any point along said space.
  • the invention also provides means for guiding and protecting the conductors from the frame to the ground. These means consist of a particular construction of the legs of the furniture.
  • a foot consists of a metal profile produced in the form of two flat rear faces having the width of a frame element and each comprising at its upper part a notch intended to face said element when the foot is in place. , and with a front face set back with respect to said rear faces, so as to leave a front space, this space being closed by a part forming a cover so as to create at its upper part a corridor for the passage of the conductors of one frame element to the other, said corridor opening at its ends onto said notches, and over its entire height a vertical corridor for the passage of conductors from the frame to the power outlets.
  • such a profile is produced in a simple manner by shaping a single sheet and hanging the cover by known means, which makes it possible to offer, according to the choice of the cover, a whole range of finishes for the piece of furniture.
  • the same profile can be produced from two profiles assembled along their vertical edges.
  • the invention relates to a piece of furniture which is distinguished in an original way by the constitution of the elements of its frame and of its feet, both made by simple profiles of appropriate section, making it possible to ensure, thanks to this structure, the guidance, protection and concealment of all the supply conductors of all the devices carried by the cabinet.
  • the profile 1 constituting one of the elements of the frame on which the plate 2 is fixed, has a vertical rear face 1 a , a horizontal upper face 1 b and a front face with decorative vocation 1 c , leaving a longitudinal space 3.
  • the plate 2 is fixed to the frame so as to cover this space.
  • a rubber lip 4 is pinched between the plate 2 and the face 1b of the profile, so as to conceal the space 3, while allowing the conductors to be inserted laterally.
  • the foot 5 comprises a mechanically resistant part constituted by a pair of rear faces 5 a -5 a 'and a front face 5 b , set back from the ends of the faces 5 a - 5 a ', this form being able to be produced by knurling the wings 6-6', or simply shaping a single sheet, as shown.
  • the wings 6-6 ′ of the faces 5 a - 5 a ′ are notched in 7-7 ′ so that these notches come to face the spaces 3 of the profiles 1, when the frame is assembled to a leg, as shown in Figure 3.
  • the rigidity of the profile 1 is improved by a flange 10 along the edge of the face 1 b , and that the foot 5 ends at the base with a plumb adjustment screw 11.
  • the shape of the foot 5 leaves a space 12 between the wings 6, which is covered, according to the invention, by a cover 13, fitted or hung on the foot by any suitable means, having a double role: closing the space 12 and constitute a decorative element for the foot.
  • the piece of furniture which has just been described offers the possibility of placing on the plate 2 all the necessary apparatus and accessories, at any suitable location, as shown in the diagram in FIG. 5, in which apparatus A1, A2 has been schematically represented. , A3, distributed on the plate 2, and supplied by conductors C1, C2, C3.
  • each of the conductors C1, C2, C3 is visible on the plate 2 only to reach the edge of the plate, at B1, B2, B3, and at this point they penetrate in profile 1, where they are guided horizontally to the space 12 of foot 5, where they descend, always guided, vertically this time, to the socket located on the ground.
  • each foot authorizes a cable descent makes it possible to separate, if requested either by the user, or by standardization (depending on the country) the routing of communication cables from that of cables under low voltage (220V-240V).
