Definitions

  • the invention relates to a furniture leg, in particular refrigerator, adjustable in height, of the type comprising, associated with a support element on the ground, a rod threaded which cooperates with an internal thread member complementary, being axially displaceable therein height direction of the furniture during a relative rotation between the rod and this organ.
  • Height-adjustable feet of this type are already known and used for furniture requiring after their installation a support in their central part when they start loading with food. The height adjustment of the feet in height is made for put them in contact with the ground.
  • the furniture legs known have, in their part located outside of the furniture, an area allowing rotation of the rod to using a key which must then be handled by the operator intended to carry out the lighting.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a height-adjustable foot structure, which overcomes the disadvantage which has just been stated and which is all the more serious as the height adjustment during a the refrigeration unit represents a significant time in volume of hours, compared to time total necessary for the installation of the furniture.
  • a height-adjustable foot according to the invention is characterized in that it is provided a remote rotation control device relative of the rod in the aforementioned threaded member internal.
  • this organ is made in the form of a nut which is mounted rotatable in a fixed part of the cabinet, but without power move axially, and in that the nut is provided means of its remote rotation.
  • the means for remote rotation of the nut are formed by a flexible filiform element, at least one of which end is accessible outside the cabinet and which wound by another part on the outside of the nut so that a tensile force exerted on the accessible end causes the rotation of the nut around its axis.
  • This piece of furniture of the type vertical, comprises, in a manner known per se, a structure rear wall 1, a roof 2, a tank 3 in which is arranged a cooling unit 4, as well as a plurality of trays or shelves 5 of exposure foodstuffs (not shown) to be protected. These trays are supported by the rear wall structure 1.
  • the furniture is provided with a curtain of cold air established at the front of the cabinet between the roof 2 and tray 3. The air intake from the curtain is shown in 7.
  • This piece of furniture of size and weight therefore important builds on the ground through a plurality of feet 9 which are adjustable in height.
  • a pair of feet is provided at each longitudinal end of the cabinet.
  • at least one other pair of feet 9 is disposed between the two ends, if necessary in the central part of furniture.
  • a pair of such feet hardly or not at all accessible from the front of the cabinet are indicated in Figure 2 and shown in more detail on Figures 3 to 5.
  • a adjustable foot 9 comprises essentially a threaded rod 11, one end of which carries a head portion 13 constituting the member resting on the ground indicated in 15.
  • the rod 11 is received inside the base 17 of the cabinet.
  • Rod 11 is matched with a member forming a nut 19 whose thread is complementary to the thread of the rod 10 so that a relative rotational movement of the rod in the nut 19 causes an axial displacement of the rod and thus of the support head 13 of the foot relative to the nut.
  • This nut is placed inside a cage 21 which is integral with a bottom plate 23 of the base 17 of the furniture.
  • the cage 21 is configured so as to allow rotation of nut 19 but prevents all lateral movement in translation of the nut, i.e. towards the axis of the stem, relative to the base 17.
  • the peripheral outer surface of the nut is configured on the winding surface 23 allowing the winding on this surface of an element filiform, i.e., metallic or plastic wire 25.
  • the coiled portion 24 of the wire 25 is fixed to a end to nut 19 while its other end is continues with an unwound portion, shown on the figures as being rectilinear and designated by the reference 27 and which is brought to the front of the cabinet and is ends with a gripping portion 29 in the form of a eyelet.
  • a foot 9 according to the invention is adjustable in height thanks to an adjustable device distance, advantageously from the front of the cabinet.
  • the adjustment device allows after installing the furniture then resting on the floor by feet at the ends of the cabinet, when begins to load it with the foodstuffs to "descend” them feet until they come in contact with the ground.
