Definitions

• the present invention relates a modular system for realising furnishing elements.
• the invention concerns a modular system preferably, but not exclusively, using pressed glass modular elements, for realising furnishing elements comprised of various modular elements for linear or curved structures, or various architectural inner or outside spaces with different colours, surface finishing and possible lighting inserts.
• a modular system for realising furnishing elements characterised in that it comprised a plurality of different kind of modular elements, each kind of modular element providing at least a base module and an upper cover element, said base module being provided above with a fixed joint coupling element, coupling with a corresponding fixed joint coupling, element provided under the same base module or the upper cover .
• said different king of modular elements providing at least straight , modular elements, 45° bent modular elements, and modular elements with , a round fixed joint.
• figures 1a, 1 b, 1c, 1d, and 1e are perspective, front,: lateral, top and perspective views, respectively, of a first module of the',, system according to the invention
• figures 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d, and 2e are perspective, front, lateral, top and perspective views, respectively, of the cover element of the rtiodu
• ⁇ figures 3a, 3b, 3c and 3d are front, lateral, top and perspective views, respectively, of the base element of the module of figure 1,
• figure 4 is an exploded view of the three elements shown in figures 1 - 3
• figures 5a, 5b, 5c, 5d, and 5e are perspective, front, lateral, top and perspective views, respectively, of a second module of the system according to the invention
• FIG.13a, 13b, 13c, 13d, and 13e are perspective, front, lateral, top and perspective views, respectively, of a fourth module of the system according to the invention
• figures 14a, 14b, 14c, 14d, and 14e are perspective, front, lateral, top and perspective views, respectively, of the cover element of the module of figure 13
• figures 15a, 15b, 15c, and 15d are front, lateral, top and perspective views, respectively, of the base element of the module of figure 13
• figure 16 is an exploded view of the three elements shown in figures 13 - 15; figures .
• 17a, 17b, 17c, 17d, and 17e are perspective, front, lateral, top and perspective views, respectively, of a fifth module of the system according to the invention
• figures 18a, 18b, 18c, 18d, and 18e are perspective, front, lateral, top and perspective views, respectively, of the cover element of the module of figure 17
• figures 19a, 19b, 19c and 19d are front, lateral, top and 5 perspective views, respectively, of the base element of the module of figure 17
• figure 20 is an exploded view of the three elements shown in figures 17-19
• figures 21a, 21b, 21c and 21 d are front, lateral, top and 0 perspective views, respectively, of a sixth module of the system according to the invention
• figures 22a, 22b, 22c and 22d are perspective, front, lateral, top and perspective views, respectively, of the cover element of the, module of ⁇ ⁇ ' !
• f r a ; ; , ; . , ⁇ figure 35 is a general scheme of the system, according ,tq the invention.
• the modular system according to the invention comprises a series of modules that can be combined in such a way to obtain a large number of shapes and structures.
• Modular system according to the invention is preferably comprised of pressed glass. Different elements are shown in the figures, but it is possible providing other elements with a different shape, always based on the same technical principle.
• 45° bent module 30 is shown in figures 9a-e, 10a-e, 11a-d and 12 providing upper cover 31 and lower base 32, the combination of which is clearly shown in figure 12.
• Rightward joint module 60 is shown in figures 21a-e, 22a-e, 23a-d and 24, providing upper cover 61 and lower base 62, the combination of which is clearly shown in figure 24.
• Circular fixed joint base module 80 and circular fixed joint half module 70 permit, thanks to the circular fixed joint, realising angled joints without limitation within a 180° range, based on the hinge principle and perfectly integrating with all the other elements 10, 20, 30,, 40, 50, 60 of the system.
• a lighting system that in the figure is comprised of a lamp 90, but that could be comprised of any other system technically feasible.
• figure 35 shows a scheme of combination of some
• photovoltaic modules comprised of receiving and accumulator group autonomously supplying the lighting LED system. Lack of main supply permits providing the module thus realised in every point of the assembly. Particular fixed joint system permits obtaining a stability of the figure realised even without a specific binder or adhesive, thus permitting modifying afterwards the structure, adding or removing modules on the basis of the new dimension and chromatic needing.
• pressed glass modular system according to the invention thanks to the design and realisation methods, can be very easily packaged, stored and transported.
