Definitions

  • This patent application concerns a table consisting of an underlying pair of rotating drawer units and top; the item in question is a sectional modular furniture unit which while maintaining the basic structure can be realised in many different alternative embodiments.
  • the table in question is ideal for use in the home, it can also be used in shops or other sales points in that its drawer units can be fitted with wooden doors or chests of drawers in which the products on sale can be stored without being visible to the public or alternatively realised without doors or glass doors so as to act as a display cabinet.
  • the table according to the invention consists of three basic elements, namely a top and two underlying drawer units mounted on revolving wheels - which are connected together by means of an upright rod which is also the pin around which the above three components rotate independently.
  • the rod is fitted and rotates freely in a series of special brackets projected from the opposing sides of the two drawer units; a coupling is fitted at the top of the rod in order to support an "L" shaped shelf above which the table top is screw fitted.
  • the ability of the upright rod to rotate with respect to the brackets housing the same is the feature which allows the top and the drawer units to rotate separately from each other.
  • the top can rotate without in any way moving the two underlying drawer units; in the same way either of the drawer units can be rotated on the revolving wheels without necessarily moving the other drawer unit or the table top.
  • the free rotation of the table components permits placing the top and underlying drawer units in the most convenient position for both the customer and the shop assistants in terms of displaying the goods on the table top and in terms of removing the products from the underlying drawer units.
  • the product in question consists of a top (2) and two drawer units, both mounted on revolving wheels (2) where the width of the drawer unit on the left (3) is inferior to that of the drawer unit (4) on the right.
  • drawer units (3 and 4) shown in these drawings are of the type without doors and are fitted internally with shelves forming numerous identical compartments having horizontal axis; obviously however the same could be provided with transparent or non transparent doors or drawers.
  • said drawer units can be realised in different arrangements, namely a table with two identical drawer units (both having a smaller or larger width) or table with the smaller drawer unit on the right and the larger drawer unit on the left.
  • Rod (5) is fitted and housed and rotates freely in a series of brackets (7 and 8) fixed to the sides of the drawer units (3 and 4) which, when the table is fully assembled as shown in figure 1, are arranged in regularly alternating positions.
  • Each of the brackets (8) fixed on the side of the right hand drawer unit (4) consists of a shelf abutting and screwed to the furniture unit by means of a longitudinal edge (8a) bent upwards by 90° provided with a number of holes for the passage of the fixing screws; it being evident moreover that this edge could alternatively be bent downwards by 90°.
  • the cantilevered section of said bracket (8) being provided with a special front "V" shaped edge with widely opened arms.
  • the upright rod (5) being fixed between the two drawer units (3 and 4) by means of a small plate (9) which abuts under the bracket (8) and which can be fixed by means of a screw (10) which passes from down to up, in a through hole (9a) at the centre of plate (9) and which engages in a threaded cylindrical housing aligned with said hole (9a) provided at the bottom end of the upright rod (5).
  • figure 2 illustrates that the position of hole having vertical axis on the bracket (8) corresponds precisely to the position in which the coupling with vertical axis (7b) is mounted on the "C" shaped bracket (7); it is evident that this permits fitting the upright rod (5) simultaneously into all the brackets (7 and 8) of the two drawers (3 and 4) so that the front face and the back face of the same are perfectly aligned, at least while these are in the position shown in figure 1.
  • the hole for insertion of the rod (5) on the two brackets (7 and 8) is provided at the point of major width, which is identical for both types of brackets (7 and 8); thanks to this feature, the upright rod (5) is placed in a position which is at exactly the same distance between the left hand drawer unit (3) and the right hand drawer unit (4). See figure 2.
  • Figure 1 shows that the cantilevered section of the brackets (8) of the right hand drawer unit (4) is positioned precisely between two of the "V" shaped brackets (7) of the left hand drawer unit (3).
  • the special connection realised between the three components of the table in question makes it possible to rotate the top (1) by 360° without in any way changing the position of the drawer units (3 and 4); it also permits rotating one or both of the drawer units (3 and 4), also without changing the position of the top (1).
  • each drawer unit can in fact rotate for a small angle, and only until the rear or front edge of its side interferes with the corresponding edges of the side of the opposing drawer unit.
