Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a furniture system which includes multiple furniture items such as sofas.
  • Patent Document 1 discloses a configuration in which a belt-shaped connection member is provided on one sofa, and a connected member to which the connection member is locked is provided on another sofa.
  • the present invention adopts the following means in order to solve the above-described problems.
  • connection portion of the connection member engages with the furniture item
  • pressing between the furniture items is released. Therefore, the compressively deformed cushion portion is deformed in the direction in which the cushion portion returns to the original shape. As a result, the engagement state of the connection portion with respect to the furniture items is maintained. Accordingly, the two furniture items are connected to each other.
  • connection portion of at least the first end portion of the connection member can be disengaged from one of the furniture item.
  • connection operation of the furniture items with the connection member can be easily performed by allowing a hand to enter the gap between the furniture main body and the floor surface.
  • FIG. 3 is a side view of a sofa configuring the sofa system.
  • FIG. 9A is a sectional view showing a cushion material which is provided along a surface of a panel base material and in which a skin material is not mounted.
  • FIG. 13 is a perspective view of an appliance lower connection bracket which connects the sofa and the panel body.
  • FIG. 14 is a perspective view showing an example of a connection structure in a support leg body which is provided on a corner of the lower portion of the panel body.
  • the frame materials 21 A and 21 B extend in a vertical direction along two sides facing each other in the core material 15 and are provided on both sides in the width direction of the panel body 11 .
  • the frame materials 21 C and 21 D extends in a horizontal direction so as to be orthogonal to the frame materials 21 A and 21 B and are provided on both sides in the vertical direction of the panel body 11 .
  • the frame materials 21 A and 21 B and the frame materials 21 C and 21 D are joined to each other via L-shaped brackets 22 by bolts 23 , welding, bonding, or the like.
  • the frame 20 having a rectangular shape as a whole is formed by the frame materials 21 A, 21 B, 21 C, and 21 D.
  • a first plate portion 22 a which is provided on the end portion of the frame material 21 A or 21 B along the frame material 21 A or 21 B
  • a second plate portion 22 b which is orthogonal to the first plate portion 22 a and is provided on the end portion of the frame material 21 C or 21 D along the frame material 21 C or 21 D
  • a rib portion 22 c which is provided on the inside in the bending direction of the L-shaped bracket 22 along the first plate portion 22 a and the second plate portion 22 b are integrally formed.
  • FIGS. 9A and 9B are sectional views showing the cushion material 13 which is provided along the surface of the panel base material 12
  • FIG. 9A is a sectional view of the cushion material 13 in a state where a skin material 14 is not mounted
  • FIG. 9B is a sectional view of a cushion material 13 in a state where the skin material 14 is mounted.
  • the skin material 14 is formed of an elastically deformable material such as polyester, and covers the cushion material 13 and the panel base material 12 in an extended state.
  • the corner 16 v which protrudes toward the outside in the circumferential edge of the through hole 16 on the outer surface 13 f is pressed toward the inside by the skin material 14 . Accordingly, the cushion material 13 is elastically deformed in a compression direction in the corner 16 v , and the corner 16 v of the through hole 16 has an arc-shaped cross section.
  • the fixing member 30 includes linear portion fixing members 30 S which are disposed on linear portions 12 S of the outer circumferential portion of the rectangular panel base material 12 , and corner portion fixing members 30 C which are disposed on corner portions 12 C of the outer circumferential portion of the rectangular panel base material 12 .
  • protrusion pieces 34 and 34 which protrude inside from the side plate portions 31 and 31 are formed on sides further separated from the base portion 21 e of the groove 25 relative to the connection plate portion 32 .
  • a holding groove 35 is formed, which is surround by the protrusion pieces 34 and 34 , the side plate portions 31 and 31 , and the connection plate portion 32 and serves as an optional member attachment portion.
  • the panel body 11 is mounted to the rear of the back rest plate 108 via the appliance upper connection bracket 171 and the appliance lower connection bracket 181 .
  • FIG. 16 is a perspective view showing an example of the connection structure of the upper portions of the panel bodies 11 and 11 .
  • the cushion portions 102 c which are pressed in the direction in which the two sofas 101 and 101 adjacent to each other approach each other are compressively deformed. Accordingly, the shaft portion 210 c of the engagement member 210 is displaced from the state of entering the engagement recess portion 203 a of the engagement portion 203 so as to engage with the engagement portion 203 to a position at which the shaft portion 210 c communicates with the insertion portion 202 . In this state, as shown in FIG.
  • connection portion 201 is formed on the first end portion, and the connection hole 205 is formed on the second end portion.
  • the present invention is not limited to this.
  • the connection portions 201 may be formed on both end portions of the connection plate 200 .
