Definitions
- the invention relates to a table with a table top inserted into a frame, the frame consisting of corner pieces forming a frame corner and two frame pieces connecting two corner pieces, each corner piece being assigned a removable table leg, the table top being supported at least on two frame bars located opposite one another and the top of the table top runs approximately flush with the top of the frame, the spar height of at least the two opposite spars on the inside of the frame being reduced step-by-step and the table top resting on the reduced spar part, the height of the frame heel roughly corresponding to the thickness of the table top.
- a such a table is known from EP-A-0 198 610.
- the table top can be accommodated in the frame, but only the two longitudinal edges are protected by the frame.
- a table of a different type (DE-B-1 125 608) to reduce the frame spars on the inside of the frame in a paragraph-like manner in order to thereby sink the table top into the frame and to accommodate it preferably flush upwards. It is a firmly glued table, especially a desk, which does not allow a modular system or an enlargement if necessary.
- the table is designed according to the preamble of claim 1 in accordance with the characterizing part of this claim.
- This table fulfills the demands placed on it. Regardless of whether it is a single table or a large table consisting of at least two individual tables or of individual tables and at least one intermediate plate, its table top can always be sunk and thus protected in a frame. If more than one single table is needed, it can be quickly enlarged by at least one further single table or by at least one further single table and an intermediate plate, whereby the individual large table elements can be securely connected via connecting links. This connection can be made quickly and, if necessary, broken down again.
- each corner piece has two receptacles arranged at an angle to each other for a connecting member, each angle leg can be assigned an angle leg of another corner piece and these two angle legs can then be detachably coupled to one another via a connecting member. So theoretically two corner pieces can be assigned to one corner piece. The two shots of a corner piece are particularly significant due to the fact that the "Extension" of this single table can be assigned to one or the other spar of this corner.
- tables of different sizes can be produced in the manner known from the generic table by using different lengths of spars. Because the table top is protected in the frame, it can also be made from sensitive materials. So table tops made of glass, stone, wood, plastic and similar materials can be used without further notice. Due to the removable feet and the removable table top, there are no problems during transport and packaging. Because the feet are removable, they can easily be exchanged for others.
- the size of the table top is not determined by the internal dimension of the frame, rather it is larger by the width of the heel - measured in the horizontal direction - in both the longitudinal and transverse directions than the internal dimension of the frame. If the table top is flush with the frame at the top and it is to be stored on support elements, this must be taken into account for the table top thickness if the step-like reduction of the bar height has a predetermined dimension.
- the recess in the corner pieces is expediently selected at right angles so that a right-angled table top can be used which is cheaper to produce than a table top with rounded corners.
- the corner piece is very advantageously provided with a nut thread and there is a corresponding bolt thread at the associated upper foot end, the corner piece having a conical tapering eye on its underside, in which the nut thread ends and which protrudes somewhat above the lower frame level.
- this connection of frame and feet accelerates the production of the table. After removing the feet, the eyes can be used as spacing elements when stacking the tables.
- the table foot is conical at its upper end assigned to the eye of the corner piece, the cone of the foot engaging in a conical receptacle of the eye. As a result, the foot is centered and held firmly.
- tables in particular tables for offices, schools and the like, are rectangular or square.
- corner pieces are used, which automatically ensure a right-angled assignment of neighboring frame bars.
- the corner piece is designed in the manner of a corner joint with a joint axis running perpendicular to the table plane, the two legs of the joint enclosing an angle of approximately 60 ° to approximately 180 ° .
- this corner piece can be used to produce a frame for a rectangular or square table. If the table should be pentagonal, hexagonal or in any other way, the angle enclosed by the two legs should be chosen accordingly. With three corner pieces each set to 60, it is possible to form a triangular frame for a table with three feet. However, the corner pieces of a frame do not all have to be set to the same angle. You can also use these corner pieces for a table that does not have a regular polygonal shape.
- the width of the intermediate plate is generally advisable to choose the width of the intermediate plate to be the same as that of the individual tables.
- the two individual tables do not necessarily have to have the same dimensions, for example the same width, and the adjacent bars of the individual table and intermediate plate also do not have to be of the same length.
- you choose adjacent spars of a single table and the intermediate plate of the same length you can advantageously assign the two connecting links to the corner pieces, i.e. always connect adjacent corner pieces with each other via the intermediate links. An additional connection of the spars is then unnecessary. Conversely, this does not necessarily mean that the connecting links must be assigned to the corner pieces.
- connection of the connecting links to the intermediate plate is preferred over the attachment to the frame of the individual tables.
- the links must be with their frame are each firmly connected, while their hooks are simply hung from above into the associated receptacle of the other frame. An additional fixed connection is not required there because the hooks are pressed firmly into the receptacles by the weight of the frame to be hooked in with the plate.
- the receptacles must be designed so that lateral evasion is neither possible in the longitudinal direction of the connecting links nor transversely thereto.
- a further embodiment of the invention is characterized by a stopper with a fastening pin which can be inserted into the through hole of the corner piece and closes the associated recess in the corner piece for a connecting element flush with the outside, the shoulder-like recess of the corner piece remaining free for receiving the tabletop corner.
- Another advantageous embodiment of the invention results from claim 17. It enables the lateral attachment of an intermediate plate to an individual table, the mutually associated or adjacent bars of the intermediate plate and individual table having different lengths.
- One connection of the two frames can be made in the area of the corner pieces assigned to each other, while the second connection takes place in the area of the other corner piece and the recess made at a specific point on the spar. This is an additional recess, ie There is one or at least one recess not only on this spar, but also on the two corner pieces assigned to it.
- a development of the invention is characterized by two recesses in the frame spar, the side spacing of which corresponds approximately to twice the distance between a recess in the corner piece and the outer corner edge.
- the two frame spars of the two intermediate plates which are in an extension of one another, can have the same length as their associated single table longitudinal spar.
- a further embodiment of the invention provides that the two recesses are located on a central piece of a spar consisting of three parts which can be firmly connected to one another.
- this central spar piece in particular provided with two recesses, corresponds to a corner piece, with the only difference that it has two parallel connections instead of two angled connections.
- a further variant of the invention provides that at least one of the bars has a bow-shaped shape.
- it can be made from three firmly connected sections or in one piece. It is particularly contemplated to use an approximately C-shaped table top in this context.
- the bow-shaped spar is assigned to a table edge of the same shape.
- the other bars can be straight.
- two parallel bars in a development of the invention each have a bow-shaped shape, these brackets being arranged in the same direction.
- "rectified” is understood to mean an arrangement in which the temple center pieces run parallel to one another and the temple legs each point in approximately the same direction.
- the right and left temple leg ends can be connected using a straight spar.
- the corner piece which is designed as a corner joint, consists of two essentially the same parts which can be adjusted relative to one another about the joint axis, with stepped legs and with a threaded hole concentric with the joint axis or a through hole for the threaded pin of the foot.
- any angle can be set at the corner joints, in which case the table tops can of course be the corresponding angles having irregular polygons.
- the parts of the corner piece designed as a joint can each be partially accommodated in the frame spar and for fixing there can be split into two partial legs that can be pressed apart by a spreading screw.
- Attaching side tables practically anywhere can be made possible in that at least a part of the spars on at least one side have an undercut longitudinal groove in which a connecting member is slidably guided, the connecting member being the free end of a spar Intermediate plate carries.
- a connection at any angle can be achieved particularly advantageously in that the connecting member has a partial leg pivotable about a vertical hinge axis, this partial leg advantageously also being able to split two partial legs which can be resiliently pushed apart by an expansion screw, so as to be securely fixed in the end of the spar can.
- a guide part which can be displaced in the longitudinal groove and divided perpendicular to the joint axis can be formed in two parts, in which case these two parts can be inserted individually through the opening of the undercut longitudinal groove and then pushed over one another, and then held together by a screw or the threaded pin of a foot.
- the screw that holds the two parts together can expediently also serve as a joint for the partial leg that can be adjusted about the joint axis.
- the partial leg can have two guide projections received inwardly in receiving grooves of the two parts of the guide part, wherein these guide projections are preferably designed to be rotationally symmetrical to the axis of rotation.
- the table 1 or single table consists of a frame 1, a tabletop 2 inserted therein and at least three feet 3. However, it is preferably tables with four feet. All feet are removable, preferably unscrewable in the exemplary embodiments. For this purpose, they have at their end facing the frame 1 a threaded pin 4 which is screwed into a threaded bore 5 of a corner piece 6 of the frame.
- the reverse arrangement is also conceivable, namely the attachment of a threaded pin on the corner piece and a threaded hole on the foot.
- the frame consists of corner pieces and each between two Corner pieces inserted frame bars 7.
- the frame of a square table consists of four corner pieces and four bars. If, as in the exemplary embodiment 1 to 3, it is a rectangular table, it has two long bars and two short bars.
- the table top 2 is embedded in the frame in such a way that the table top 8 is flush or at least approximately flush with the frame top 9.
- the table top is supported at least on the frame bars, the support preferably being carried out directly on the frame bars. It can be seen from FIG. 18 that the table top can also be supported on the corner pieces if the corner pieces are designed accordingly.
- an inner circumferential fold 10 (FIG. 22) is present, which also extends over the corner pieces and is preferably of the same dimensions in the area of the corner pieces as in the area of the bars.
- the fold 10 comes about in that the spar height 11 on the spar inside or inside of the frame is reduced in steps.
- the table top 2 lies on the reduced spar part 12, while the higher spar part 13 comprises the table top to form the table edge on the outside.
- the term “reduced height” does not necessarily mean that the spar has been machined, rather it can be a correspondingly shaped profile, as shown for example in FIG. 22 of the drawing. It can be seen from FIGS. 23 to 26 that the height of the frame heel or fold 10 corresponds approximately to the thickness of the table top or, in the case of an unevenly thick table top, to the edge of the table top.
- the Height of the frame bars - measured in the direction of the vertical - is the same or at least approximately the same as the height of the corner pieces. This can also be seen, for example, in the enlarged representation of FIGS. 16 and 17.
- the angular fold 14 of the corner piece 6 (FIG. 18) is designated by 14.
- the spar 7 according to FIG. 21 is made of solid material
- the spar 7 of FIG. 22 is a section of a hollow profile.
- the spars of FIGS. 23 to 26 are formed in two parts. The division takes place in the longitudinal direction, i.e. both spar parts are of the same length.
- the spar essentially consists of a specially shaped hollow profile, for example made of aluminum, which forms the one spar part 15.
- This spar part is solely responsible for the statics of frame 1.
- the respective other spar part 16 primarily takes on an aesthetic task in this spar construction. It consists of a plastic profile strip, preferably made of soft PVC.
- the table top 2 on the inside of the frame runs flush with the frame, but in this variant the outer frame edge is pulled up a little so that liquids cannot flow off the table edge there.
- the two spar parts 15 and 16 of FIGS. 23 and 24 are bonded to one another in a form-fitting manner, so that the spar part 16 cannot come loose from the spar part 15 even under somewhat greater stress.
- the other spar part 16 has an essentially C-shaped cross section, with the C-leg ends each being designed like hooks. Each of these free, hook-like C-legs engages in a groove in one of the spar parts 15.
- the two spar parts are by pushing the smaller strip-shaped spar part 16 onto the Larger, advantageously made of an aluminum profile spar part 15 pushed in the longitudinal direction. According to FIGS.
- the spar 7 can also be constructed from a metal hollow profile and a solid profile firmly connected to it, the hollow profile forming one spar part 15 and the solid profile forming the other spar part 16.
- one spar part 15 is an aluminum profile
- the other spar part 16 is made of wood.
- the case 10 is formed jointly by both spar parts, while in the embodiments according to FIGS. 23 and 24 it is primarily determined by the spar part 15.
- the table top 2 lies on the upward-facing surface 17 of the one spar part 15.
- the edge of the table top is preferably directly in front of the edge 19 of the solid profile or of the other spar part 16 that points into the inside of the frame, preferably parallel to it.
- connection of the two spar parts 15 and 16 takes place in the exemplary embodiments of FIGS. 25 and 26 with the aid of a plurality of screws 20 arranged offset in the longitudinal direction, which are screwed into threaded sockets 21.
- the latter are held in a rotationally fixed manner in the other spar part 16, for example pressed in.
- the screw penetrates two bores aligned with the thread of the sleeve 21 in the parallel spar walls of one spar part 15.
- FIGS. 25 and 26 it can be seen from FIGS. 25 and 26 that the two parts 15 and 16 of the spar 7 are positively connected to one another. This is achieved, for example, by forming two parallel strips 22 and 23 on the hollow profile of one spar part 15, which are arranged in a corresponding manner Engage grooves of the other massive spar part 16.
- the corner piece has, in particular, a conically tapering eye 24 on its underside, in which the female thread 5 opens outward.
- this eye is slightly below the lower frame level 25, i.e. a few millimeters ahead.
- the table base 3 is conical at its upper end associated with this eye 24 of the corner piece 6, this cone being designated by 26.
- the free cone surfaces and the cone heights are selected to be of different sizes in the exemplary embodiment (FIG. 16).
- the foot cone 26 engages in the counter cone of the eye 24 which widens outwards and is thereby centered and securely held.
- the lower end of the table base 3 is also conical, this cone being designated 27. At least the cone angles of the two foot cones 26 and 27 are preferably of the same size. The height of the lower cone 27 in FIG. 16 is approximately the same as that of the upper cone 26. At the lower end of the foot 3 there is a nut thread 29 which extends centrally through the cone 27 and extends into the unreduced cross section of the foot. It is used to screw in an adjusting foot 29 for the table height.
- corner pieces of the above-mentioned variants of the table define a fixed angle for the spars to be connected, which is preferably a right angle
- the corner piece according to FIGS. 29 and 30 is designed in the manner of a corner joint.
- the runs Hinge axis 30 perpendicular to the plane of the table top 2.
- the angle 31 formed by the two legs of this corner piece can be changed in the exemplary embodiment in a larger range from, for example, approximately 60 ° to approximately 120 °.
- Each corner piece 6 is equipped with two receptacles 34 arranged at right angles to one another for a connecting member 33.
- This connecting links preferably a pair of connecting links, is used for the fixed connection of the table top 2 of the table to a further top, which may be a further table top or an intermediate plate 36 connected between two individual tables, which will be discussed in more detail below.
- These receptacles 34, 35 according to FIG. 17, for example, are a longitudinal slot which is open at the top and on the side and is recessed like a shoulder at its inner end. The hook of a connecting member 33 engages in this recess.
- FIG. 21 is connected to the corner piece by means of a screw 37 or in another known manner and, moreover, it is formed symmetrically to a vertical transverse center plane, it is sufficient if two connecting elements are fixed only on one of the two mutually associated spars of the two table tops are mounted. On the other table top, the free projecting ends, namely the hooks 32, are simply hung in from above. The connection is held securely solely on the basis of the weight of the suspended tabletop, it being irrelevant whether feet are attached to the suspended tabletop or not.
- FIG. 21 also shows that the connecting member is flush at the top or at least approximately flush with the top of the corner piece 6 and preferably with the top of the entire frame 1. Accordingly, the width and depth as well as the paragraph-like are based Deepening of the receptacles 34 and 35 according to the corresponding dimensions of the connecting link 33.
- the screw 37 is screwed into one of two parallel nut threads 38, 39. If the table top with the connecting members is only hung in the frame of the other table top, the nut thread 39 remains unused. On the other hand, one could also make a connection there with the aid of a screw if all corner pieces are of identical design and thus also each have a receiving bore 40 for a fastening screw.
- Figures 4 to 8 show that the table top 2 need not necessarily be rectangular or square.
- Four-legged tables are quite conceivable, which have a roughly speaking approximately C-shaped form 43 or 44 which deviates from the square form 41 or the rectangular form 42.
- the same corner pieces 6 can be used for the table shapes 43 and 44 as for the square or rectangular tables.
- the two bars 45 and 46 do not run parallel but at an angle to one another.
- at least one of these two straight bars 45 and 46 connecting bars is arc-shaped or U-shaped.
- the two spars 47 and 48 are approximately U-shaped, the two left and the two right legs extending parallel to one another and perpendicular to the associated straight spar 45 and 46, respectively.
- the table shapes according to FIGS. 4 and 5, but also the approximately triangular table according to FIG. 6, can be parts of a large table. Different variants of such a large table result from FIGS. 9 to 15.
- the large table according to FIG. 9 consists of two tables according to FIG. 5 and three tables according to FIG. 8.
- the two tables according to FIG. 5 themselves have feet, rather intermediate plates 49 and 50 can be used.
- their frames are constructed in the same way as the frames of tables 41, 42 from corner pieces and spars 7 connected between adjacent corner pieces.
- the table top 2 is then recessed into each of these frames.
- the connection between adjacent tables takes place in the manner described above by means of at least two connecting members 33 between adjacent table tops, the connecting elements advantageously being fastened to the intermediate boards 49 and 50, respectively.
- the receptacles 34, 35 can be closed by means of a stopper 51 (FIG. 27). It has a fastening pin 52 which allows a plug-in connection with the receiving bore 40 of the corner piece 6. Otherwise, the shape of the stopper 51 is selected accordingly to that of the receptacle 34 or 35, so that the stopper receives the Corner piece 6 can close completely and a smooth surface is created towards the top.
- the longitudinal spar 53 has two receptacles 34, 35 arranged parallel to one another and at a distance.
- the second individual table or the intermediate plate 49, 50 can thus be assigned either to the left part of the spar in FIG. 2 or to the right part of the spar 53. It is even conceivable to connect the individual table of FIG. 1 to two further individual tables or intermediate plates arranged next to one another in parallel.
- the side distance 54 of the two receptacles 34 and 35 is approximately twice the distance 55 of a receptacle 34 and 35 from the corner piece outer edge 56 ( Figure 8).
- the spar 53 consists of three parts, namely the intermediate piece having the receptacles 34 and 35, in particular the middle piece, and two spar parts arranged to the right and left thereof. The free ends of the latter are then each connected to a corner piece 6.
- the connection of the three spar pieces must ensure sufficient resilience of this spar.
- a plate 57 serving as an aperture can be arranged between two adjacent table feet 3.
- Their vertical longitudinal edge assigned to foot 3, according to FIGS. 19 and 20, includes the foot in question from the inside to the outside.
- the longitudinal edge is circular-arc-shaped.
- this vertical longitudinal edge is not formed directly on the plate, but on a profile strip 59 which is permanently connected, for example glued, to it. This is expediently a profiled plastic strip.
- the profile strip 59 is provided at its upper and lower ends with a barb-like projection 60 and 61, which points away from the plate.
- the upper projection 60 engages over the upper cone 26 of the foot 3, while the projection 61 engages under the lower cone 27 of the foot 3.
- the plate 57 is held securely not only transversely to its plane, but also in the vertical direction without special fastening elements. It can be installed and removed just as easily.
- a connecting member 33 ' is shown, which is guided in a longitudinal groove 66 of a spar 7 with a guide member 67 longitudinally.
- This link 33 ' is in several parts. It consists of two parts 67 ', 67' composed of guide part 67 and a partial leg 65, which is partially accommodated in the spar 7 and split for attachment in partial legs 64 and 64 ', which can be expanded by an expansion screw 63 in the spar 7.
- the two parts 67 ', 67' of the guide part 67 have transverse to the longitudinal groove 66 receiving grooves 69 in which guide projections 70 of the split leg 65 formed there are received.
