Description

Drawer

Background

The invention relates to a drawer having walls, on which means for fastening a further, second wall and means for fastening a further, third wall are provided, wherein at least one decorative element is fastened to a surface of the walls.

DE 102017121597 discloses a drawer in which the side frame has an inner core and a thin-walled outer shell which can be glued to the moulded part of the core. The side frames are therefore produced as stable units. The gluing of the housing is used for stability and is not removable, so that it is not possible to replace the housing or parts of the housing later, for example because damage has occurred or the user wants the side frames to have a different optical design.

DE 202014102595U 1 discloses a hollow chamber frame for drawers, in which a separate decorative element can be arranged on the surface of the frame body, which decorative element is glued to the frame body. Here too, an adhesive for permanently fastening the decorative element is provided, and the above-mentioned disadvantages arise.

Disclosure of Invention

It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a drawer which is made more flexible on at least one wall and in which damaged surfaces can be replaced more easily without the need to rebuild the entire wall.

This object is achieved by a drawer having the features of claim 1.

According to the invention, the drawer comprises at least one decorative element, which is glued so that it can be repeatedly removed from the wall via the first adhesive. The decorative element can thus be removed again from the wall, so that the wall design is more flexible without the wall being damaged by adhesion. Instead, the adhesive remains adhered to the wall or the carrier material and it is possible to fix the decorative element to the wall again via the adhesive after repair or cleaning. This enables a simple replacement of the decorative element. The adhesive may remain adhered to the decorative element or wall.

Preferably, the first adhesive is applied on one side of the carrier material. The carrier material may also be bonded to the wall or decorative element via a second adhesive, the second adhesive being disposed on a side opposite the first adhesive. Due to the second adhesive, the adhesion of the carrier material to the wall or the decorative element is higher, preferably at least twice as high, than the adhesion of the first adhesive to the decorative element or the wall. It is thus ensured that the carrier material remains adhered to the wall or to the decorative element when the decorative element is removed.

Preferably, the first adhesive is fixed in strip form on the wall or on the decorative element or on the carrier material. The first adhesive need not be applied over the entire surface of the trim component, but rather may be sufficient to removably secure various areas of the trim component. Preferably, the receptacle for the adhesive is provided on the decorative element, for example in the form of a groove or a step, so that the decorative element does not protrude from the wall.

If the double-sided adhesive film is adhered to a wall or a decorative element for fixation, the decorative element can be easily mounted. The adhesive film may then remain on the wall when the decorative element is replaced or a decorative element with a new adhesive film is used. The adhesive film can use a plastic film or an elastic material as a carrier material, such as foam, so that the decorative element can be fixed to the wall with a certain elasticity.

For fixing the decorative element, the decorative element can have a hook-shaped portion, which is suspended on the upper side of the wall. The mechanical fixing of the decorative element is supplemented by an adhesive bond to avoid the decorative element moving relative to the wall during opening and closing of the drawer. The decorative element can have, for example, an integrally formed web which is fastened in a clamped or locked manner to a recess of the wall. The first adhesive preferably has an adhesive bead which is arranged virtually non-removably on the carrier material or the decorative element in order to be able to pull out the decorative element repeatedly removably.

The peel force of the first adhesive on the steel surface is preferably between 2N/100mm and 15N/100mm (ASTM test method D3330M). In contrast, the peel force of the second adhesive on the steel surface may be between 10N/100mm and 100N/100mm (ASTM test method D3330M).

The decorative element is preferably formed as a plate-like wall element, which may also have a bent edge in the upper region and is made, for example, of plastic or metal. The decorative element may also have a three-dimensional structure with steps, ribs, grooves, recesses or other elements. The decorative element may also provide an information item about the content and/or may serve as a logo carrier. Preferably, the decorative element is provided with a bend or fold at least in the lower region to reinforce the side wall.

The wall is preferably formed as a frame body, in particular a hollow chamber frame, and the means for fixing the front panel and the means for fixing the rear wall can be arranged on or in the frame body. Alternatively, the frame body is made of a solid material, for example, a wooden material. Then, for example, the second wall body is designed as a front panel, and the third wall body is a rear wall. Alternatively, the wall can also be designed as a front panel or rear wall of a drawer.

Alternatively, the fixing of the decorative element can be achieved by means of an adhesive tape or pad fixed to the frame body or the decorative element.

The drawer is preferably mounted on furniture or a household appliance.

Detailed Description

The drawer comprises a drawer frame 1 having a wall in the form of a frame body 2 which is substantially plate-shaped and has a holder 3 in the lower region, on which a recess 4 is formed for inserting the bottom panel of the drawer. Further, means 5 for fixing the rear wall and means 13 for fixing the front panel on the opposite side are provided on the frame body 2. In the exemplary embodiment shown, the frame body 2 is designed as a hollow chamber frame, however, it is also possible to manufacture the frame body from a solid material, for example from a wood material or plastic.

The decorative element 6 is fastened on the outside on the frame body 2, which overlaps the frame body 2 on the upper side with an upper strip edge 7.

Fig. 2A shows the decorative element 6 and the frame body 2 in an exploded view. The decorative element 6 comprises a plate-shaped side wall 8, for example made of metal or plastic, wherein a strip-shaped recess or receptacle 9 is provided in the lower region for receiving a carrier material 10 with a first adhesive 30. The decorative element 6 is removably fixed at a lower region of the frame body 2 via the adhesive 30 and can be removed again without being damaged.

The first adhesive 30 adheres to the carrier material 10 to removably secure the trim component 6. The carrier material 10 can also be bonded on the sides of the frame body 2 via a second adhesive 31, wherein the adhesive force of the carrier material 10 on the frame body 2 is significantly higher than on the decorative element 6, so that the carrier material 10 remains on the frame body 2 when the decorative element 6 is removed. Alternatively, the adhesion of the carrier material 10 on the decorative element 6 can be significantly higher than on the frame body 2. In this case, the carrier material 10 remains on the decorative element 6 when the decorative element 6 is removed.

In fig. 2B, a modified decorative element 6' is shown, which is fastened to the frame body 2 similarly to fig. 2A. The decorative element 6 'has only one upper edge 7' which overlaps the upper side of the frame body 2, wherein a short fold is provided on the edge 7 on the side opposite the side wall 8. Furthermore, in contrast to the strip-shaped carrier material 10, a plurality of carrier media pads 10 ' are provided, which have a first adhesive 30 ' for fixing the decorative element 6 '.

Fig. 3A and 3B show the drawer frame 1 from a front view. The means 13 for fixing the front panel are identifiable in the frame body 2, arranged in the wall of the frame body 2. It is furthermore evident that the decorative element 6 is formed in an angled shape and that a web 11 is integrally formed on the upper edge 7, which web has a thickened head which is held in a clamping or locking manner in a groove 12 on the frame body 2. Thus, the decorative element 6 can be first mechanically fixed on the groove 12 at the upper edge 7 and then laterally fixed on the side wall of the frame body 2 via the first adhesive 30 to avoid relative movement between the frame body 2 and the decorative element 6 during drawer movement. In the region of the outer side wall, the decorative element 6 is formed in the region of the receptacle 9 having a thinner wall thickness to receive the carrier material 10. The carrier material 10 can be formed as a film or from a foam material in order to fix the decorative element 6 with a certain elasticity to the frame body 2.

The decorative element 6 may be painted or coated with a film on its outside as desired to make it visually appealing. In addition, other coatings may also be provided. If the surface of the decorative element 6 is damaged, the decorative element 6 can be removed in the region of the first adhesive 30 simply by pulling the decorative element 6 off the carrier material 10 and the first adhesive 30, and then removing the web 11 from the recess 12.

Fig. 4A shows a modified embodiment of the decorative element 6, which is attached to the frame body 2 via a carrier material mat 20 with a first adhesive 40. The mat of carrier material 20 may be made of a double-sided adhesive film and is capable of securing the decorative element 6 by a plurality of spaced apart fastening points via the second adhesive 41. Thus reducing the use of material. No receptacle or step for receiving the carrier material mat 20 is provided on the side wall 8 of the decorative element 6, which simplifies the construction. In addition, the decorative element 6 corresponds to the aforementioned exemplary embodiment. In the present exemplary embodiment, a pad of carrier material 20 is attached to the trim element 6.

Fig. 4B and 4C show the improved trim element 6 ' shown in fig. 2B attached to the frame body 2 via a carrier material mat 10 ' with a first adhesive 30 '. The upper edge 7 is reinforced by a downwardly directed fold 21, which overlaps the frame body 2 on the upper side. A bend 22 is provided at the underside of the side wall 8, which stiffens the decorative element 6'.

In fig. 4D and 4E, the decorative element 6' of fig. 4B and 4C is modified in the lower region, in that no bend 22 is provided, but only a fold 23, which extends substantially perpendicularly to the side wall 8.

In the above-described exemplary embodiment, the decorative element 6 is provided on the outer side wall and the upper side of the frame body 2. Of course, it is also possible to provide the decorative element 6 not on the entire surface of the outer side and upper side, but only on a part. Furthermore, the decorative element 6 can also be detachably fixed to the inside of the drawer frame 1 via an adhesive.

In fig. 5, the decorative element 16, the size of which is reduced, is removably fixed to the frame body 2 by the adhesive 10 in a lower region outside the frame body 2. Indicia or information items, such as content relating to the drawer, are visible on the surface of the decorative element 16. The decorative element 16 can be reversibly attached so that it is clearly visible from the outside in a simple manner. The decorative element 16 is fixed on the frame body 2 near the front panel 15 of the drawer, but may also be fixed in another position.

The trim component 16 prior to installation is shown in fig. 6. The decorative element 16 has a carrier material mat 10 'with a first adhesive 30' which is arranged in a receptacle between the upper thickened portion 17 and the lower inclined edge 18. The edge 18 of the lower side is pressed against the lower side of the frame body 2.

In fig. 7, the decorative element 16 is shown in an installed position, in which it is fixed to the decorative element 6 on the frame body 2, which is depicted in fig. 3A and 3B. The smaller decorative element 16 is attached on the outside to the decorative element 6, which decorative element 6 is arranged on the entire surface of the outside of the frame body.

The greatest advantage of the carrier material mats 10' and 20 or the strip-shaped carrier material 10 is that they can be easily removed without the need for tools and without leaving residues.
