Definitions

  • the present invention relates to drawer designs and corresponding assembly methods.
  • the design must allow for easy assembly of the drawer. Easy assembly is commonly promoted by reducing the number of parts to be assembled and also by reducing the need of tools (screw drivers, hex keys, drills, hammers, staplers etc.).
  • tools screw drivers, hex keys, drills, hammers, staplers etc.
  • the common practice is to divide the design into five main parts, namely: the front piece, the left and right side pieces, the back piece and the bottom.
  • Some designs also rely on other parts, such as metal-, rubber- or plastic fittings, to hold the main parts together.
  • the parts often have some sort of guide features like pre-drilled holes, wooden plugs and/or grooves that guide the parts during assembly. Another, often important, aspect when designing such a product is to minimize environmental impact.
  • said drawer should preferably be visually appealing and thus the front piece should preferably not show any screw heads or fittings and any veneer covered sides should preferably be intact Millions and millions of these drawers are produced and exported worldwide each year, thus production speed and material cost are important factors and limiting for the design of such a drawer.
  • a common material to use for such a drawer is cheap chipboard that has been laminated with a plastic material. This material is produced in a high-speed process and the resulting parts have rather fragile edges and corners, thus making the joints critical for the durability and function of the drawer.
  • a durable solution for joining drawer parts is proven to be the use of screws in combination with angle bars or other fittings. This however requires quite some thought and skill when assembling the drawer and it is often difficult to locate which screw should be used in what hole and in what order the parts should be assembled. There is also a risk that screws or fittings get lost during assembly of the drawer or earlier in the value chain.
  • the need for tools such as screwdrivers or hex-keys is apparent when assembling drawers according to prior art and sometimes manufacturers deliver those tools with the piece of furniture to be assembled, thus increasing the cost and negative environmental impact of the product.
  • An object of the invention is to provide a drawer that may be efficiently produced in large quantities, that is easy to assemble with as few tools and mounting means (fittings, screws, wooden plugs etc.) as possible, and at the same time reduce the total environmental impact of the produced drawers whilst maintaining sufficient product quality in terms of durability and visual appeal.
  • a drawer comprises a front piece, a left side piece, a right side piece, a back piece and a bottom.
  • the bottom has a front edge, a left edge, a right edge, and a back edge.
  • a drawer frame is formed by the two side pieces, the front piece and the back piece.
  • the drawer frame parts are joined by means of dovetail, or similarly shaped, grooves and protrusions.
  • the grooves and protrusions may be formed all the way across any part, from one edge or end to the opposite edge or end, or partly across any part in order to provide joining means and, if desired, a stop to guide the parts relatively each other during assembly in a direction along the groove to an end position.
  • one or more of the parts of the drawer frame is/are produced from a chipboard material and one or more mounting means is/are inserted in one or more grooves in one or more of the parts of the drawer frame to support the bottom.
  • each edge of the drawer bottom may be supported in one or more grooves in one or more of the frame parts or in a space between the bottom side of the left and right side pieces and a left and a right side rail.
  • the rails, if any, are usually Z-shaped with 90° angles, made of pressed steel plate and designed to fit with corresponding fittings that protrude from left and right inner side walls of the piece of furniture in which the drawer is to be mounted.
  • the side rails are usually positioned to the left and right of the drawer frame, respectively and comprising features that protrude under the bottom side of the side piece at a distance from the bottom side of the side pieces, the distance being almost equal to the thickness of the drawer bottom.
  • One aspect further relates to a method of assembling a drawer without using any tools. Depending on which embodiment of the drawer that has been chosen, the assembly method varies.
  • the drawer is assembled in the following order. First, the two side pieces are slid into/onto each dovetail groove/protrusion on the front piece respectively. Then the back piece is slid onto the side pieces to form a drawer frame. Then, the side rails are to be mounted if they have not already been pre-mounted to the side pieces. Then the bottom is slid into the space formed between two side rails and the side pieces so that the front edge of the bottom enters one or more grooves in the front piece. Then one or more fittings are positioned along the back edge of the bottom so that it/they is/are supported by the side rails or by the drawer frame.
  • the drawer is assembled in the following order. First, the two side pieces are slid into/onto the left and right dovetail grooves/protrusions on the front piece respectively. Then the bottom is slid into the grooves provided in the side pieces, so that the front edge of the bottom enters as far into the one or more grooves in the front piece as possible. Then the middle of the front edge of the bottom is pressed upwards, over the one or more heels or protrusions, whereupon the bottom is slid even further into the front piece until there is enough free space at the back edge of the bottom for the back piece to be slid fully onto the side pieces.
  • the back piece is slid onto the side pieces to complete a drawer frame, whereby the bottom is slid back as long into one or more grooves in the back piece as possible.
  • the rails may be mounted if they have not already been pre-mounted to the side pieces.
  • the drawer is assembled in the following order.
  • the drawer frame is assembled; this is usually done by first sliding the two side pieces into/onto the left and right dovetail grooves/protrusions on the front piece respectively.
  • the back piece is slid into/onto the grooves/protrusions of the side pieces. If the drawer bottom is wider than the distance between the side pieces in an operating position of the drawer, then, if there is a need of side rails, make sure that the rails are not mounted to the side pieces yet.
  • the front and back edges of the bottom are supported in one or more grooves in the front and back piece respectively. In order to easily fit the bottom, its front or back edge should first be positioned in its supporting groove in the front/back piece respectively.
  • the other edge of the bottom is to be inserted in its one or more supporting grooves. This is commonly done by first bending the bottom, and then inserting the other edge slightly into the one ore more supporting grooves, and finally releasing the bottom, whereby it straightens out to be well supported in the back and front piece respectively. Then, if there is a need of side rails and the rails are not yet mounted, the rails may be mounted, whereby they support the left and right edges of the bottom, respectively.
