Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a connectable baseboard for furniture in which a plurality of pieces of furniture, such as sofas and tables, formed in the same shape are freely arranged and used.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION It is well known that furniture such as sofas that are used in an interconnected state have baseboards in the portions that come into contact with the floor.

Therefore, since sofas and the like that have such baseboards are often used side by side in a connected form, it is conventional to separate the ground planes of adjacent pieces of furniture to prevent them from shifting during use. However, because the connecting structure is complicated or there is an apparent separation between adjacent baseboards, for example, in the case of a sofa, the seat boards may Although the baseboards are attached closely together, the baseboards are not in close contact with each other, and as a result, there is a problem in that the baseboards do not appear to be connected or have a sense of unity.

In view of the above-mentioned difficulties with conventional furniture baseboards, the present invention was made with the aim of providing a baseboard that can be integrally connected to the baseboards of adjacent furniture both in terms of appearance and structure. The structure is such that a baseboard provided on the ground side of a sofa, table, etc. is formed into a stepped wall shape with the lower half positioned backward from the upper half, and the lower half and upper An engagement groove in the shape of a side cross section is recessed and formed on the upper half side at the boundary between the halves, and the baseboard is attached to furniture such as a sofa with the upper half flush with the outer peripheral wall of the baseboard. On the other hand, the connecting member of the baseboard is formed by protruding fitting pieces that fit into the engagement grooves on both sides at the same height as the lower half of the baseboard, and the furniture having the baseboard is provided. When the baseboards are arranged in contact with each other, the connecting member is attached to the gap formed by the lower halves of the adjacent baseboards by fitting the fitting pieces into the engagement grooves. be.

Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

1 is a sofa, and in this case, the seat part 1a is a rectangular shape.
The sofa 1 is made up of a seat 1a and a backrest 1b rising from the rear of the seat 1a. The sofa 1 is generally rectangular in plan view and has an outer peripheral wall 1c formed in a substantially vertical, flat upright shape. The reference numeral 1d denotes the bottom plate of the sofa 1. The reference numeral 2 denotes the sofa 1.
This is an example of the baseboard of the present invention attached to the outer periphery of the bottom surface of a floor, and is constructed as described below.

2a is the baseboard 2 having a substantially square-shaped side cross section.
The upper half part 2b is a lower half part whose width (in the depth direction) is approximately half the width of the upper half part 2a and has a rectangular side cross section. Both 2a and 2b are stacked and integrated to form the baseboard 2, with the front surface 21b of the upper half portion 2a extending from the front surface 21a of the upper half portion 2a.

In the figure, 22b is a groove recessed in the longitudinal direction of the bottom surface of the lower half 2b, which allows the two members 2a and 2b to be integrated, and the integrated baseboard 2 to be attached to the bottom plate 1d of the sofa 1. This is for installing the bolt 3 for the purpose.

The baseboard 2 configured as described above has its upper half 2a
The baseboard 2 is installed around the outer peripheral edge of the bottom surface 1d of the sofa 1 with the front surface 21a of the sofa 1 aligned with the surface of the outer peripheral wall 1c of the sofa 1.
A groove 4 is formed above the lower half part 2b at the boundary part of b as an engagement groove for connection, and the entire front surface is formed in a stepped wall shape. When lined up in the horizontal direction, as shown in FIG. A gap is created in the portion 2b.

Therefore, in this invention, the baseboard connector 5 is constructed as follows to fill in the gap and make each baseboard 2 of the connected sofas 1 look like a baseboard formed by connecting them together, and to restrain each of the lined up sofas 1 from shifting relative to each other.

That is, this connecting member 5 has the same front width as the gap formed by the lower half parts 2b, 2b on the abutting side of the baseboards 2, 2 when the sofas 1 according to the above embodiment are arranged, and is The main body 5 is formed at the same height as the lower half 2b of the baseboard 2 as seen.
a, and fitting pieces 5b protruding in the direction and size to fit into the groove 4 of the baseboard 2 on both upper surfaces of the main body 5a when viewed from the front.

By forming the connecting member 5 as described above,
The front end surface 51a of the connecting member 5 is aligned with the front end surface of the lower half part 2b of the baseboard 2, and the front width thereof is the gap formed by the lower half parts 2b, 2b of the two adjacent baseboards 2, 2. , and the fitting pieces 5b, 5b
are fitted into the grooves 4, 4 of the adjacent baseboards 2, 2, and act to prevent the two from separating.

The baseboard of the present invention is as described above, so it can be used as a lobby where multiple pieces of furniture such as tables, sofas, plant boxes, etc., which are square in plan and have the same side shape, are arranged in various shapes when viewed from the plan view. It is useful as a connectable baseboard for furniture, and its connection structure is extremely simple, easy to implement, and can be implemented at low cost.

Although the upper and lower halves of the baseboard in the example were formed from separate members, it goes without saying that they may be integrally molded.
It is sufficient that the front side, that is, the side exposed to the outer peripheral surface of the furniture, has the shape and structure of the above embodiment.

Further, the length of the connecting member is arbitrary as long as it is within the length of the baseboard groove on the surface on which the baseboard is attached.
