  • Patent number: 9955781
    Abstract: A furniture module can include a cupboard, book shelf, chests of drawers and like furniture. The module (1) is formed of two opposite sides (2, 3) and a top (5) and bottom (4) placed at opposite ends of the sides (2, 3), forming a frame. At least two columns of mounting openings (6, 7, 8, 9) are placed on the inside of the sides (2, 3) for attaching shelves, drawers, doors etc. The mounting openings (6, 7, 8, 9) of each column are placed at even spacing, giving an equal distance (M) between adjacent mounting openings (6, 7, 8, 9). The distance between the uppermost mounting opening (6, 7, 8, 9) in each column of mounting openings and the upper side of the module (1) is one and a half (M+½M) of the distance between adjacent mounting openings (6, 7, 8, 9). Also the distance between the lowermost mounting hole in the column of mounting holes and the lower side of the module (1) is one and a half (M+½M) of the distance between adjacent mounting openings (6, 7, 8, 9).

  • Patent number: 9447804
    Abstract: A joint for assembling two furniture parts to each other is disclosed. A first furniture part has a male part for co-operation with a female part of a second furniture part. Each of the male and female parts has a number of grooves. At assembly the male part is moved along the female part via co-operation between the grooves of the male and female part, respectively. The co-operating male and female parts have an insertion position and an end position, in which end position the furniture parts are assembled to each other. The grooves of one of the female and male parts are compressed during movement from the insertion position to the end position. The grooves of the pair of co-operating female part and male part are such that the furniture parts are pressed toward each other when the male part is moved along the female part.

  • Patent number: 9416576
    Abstract: A method and mechanism for moving an element, such as a sliding door (1), is disclosed. In the movement a first end of the element is first turned outwards, a second opposite end is then turned out placing the element in parallel with the original location of the element. The element is then displaced by extending a pull-out guide (4). The mechanism comprises a housing (2), the pull-out guide rail (4), a lock-and-release mechanism (19) and at least two lever arms (8, 11, 14, 16, 27, 30, 33, 39, 42). One end of a first lever arm (8, 27, 39) is received in a pivoting point (10, 29, 41) at the pull-out guide rail (4) and the opposite end of said lever arm (8, 27, 39) is received in a pivoting point (9, 28, 40) at the housing (2). The pivoting point (10, 29, 41) at the pull-out guide rail (4) is placed at a first end of the pull-out guide rail (4).

  • Publication number: 20150075675
    Abstract: The present invention concerns a method for forming longitudinal undercut grooves in wood products. It also concerns a cutting blade (5, 12, 14, 15) that could be used in the method. According the invention a longitudinal straight groove (4) is formed in a wooden work piece (1) in a first step, for instance by means of a circular saw blade (2). In a second step the work piece (1) is moved pass the cutting blade (5, 12, 14, 15) to form an undercut groove (7, 8, 9, 10), which undercut groove is either symmetric or asymmetric. The cutting blade (5, 12, 14, 15) has a number of cutting heads (6). The cutting width of the cutting heads increase from a first cutting head (6a) to a last cutting head (6b).
