Technical Field

The invention relates to a corner cabinet arrangement having two cabinet sections which are rectangular in plan view and each have a door at their front end and merge at right angles at an inner corner, so that the two cabinet sections enclose a corner space which is rectangular in plan view between one another, the corner cabinet arrangement having a partition which extends in a first of the cabinet sections and in a part of the corner space and can be pivoted out of a door opening of the cabinet section when the door is open.

Background

Such corner cabinet arrangements are widely used, in particular, as kitchen floor cabinets.

The cabinets of kitchen floor cabinets typically have a rectangular plan view such that when the front ends of two such cabinets are formed at an interior angle, a corner space is formed between the side walls of the cabinets, the corner space being rectangular in plan view or square when the depth of the cabinets is the same. This corner space is usually covered by only one complete table which is L-shaped in plan view and is not used.

However, corner cabinet arrangements are also known in which two cabinets of rectangular shape in plan view are arranged: one of the cabinets occupies not only the first cabinet region but also the corner space, while the other cabinet occupies only the second cabinet region. Thus, the corner space is a part of the interior space of the first cabinet, but is difficult to access through the relatively narrow door opening of the cabinet. In order to facilitate access to the corner space, it is known to mount in the cabinet a partition which occupies a large area of the first cabinet region and of the corner space, so that the partition can be swiveled out of the door opening in a rotational movement or in a superimposed translational and rotational movement and optionally pulled further out, so that the part of the partition which is originally located in the corner space can be more easily accessed. Examples of fittings which enable such a movement of the partition in the corner cabinet are described in DE 8624899U 1, DE 202006017567U 1, EP 1616503 a2 and EP 2253244B 1.

However, for kinematic reasons, it is not possible for the partition to occupy the entire area of the first cabinet region and of the corner space. Generally, the more efficiently the internal space of the cabinet is utilized by the partition, the more complex the movement process required by the partition.

In another corner cabinet solution, disclosed for example in DE 202011000471U 1, the partition forms a wheel disc which can rotate around a vertical shaft, and the door is arranged in an interior corner of the cabinet and can be held on the wheel disc rotatably with the wheel disc.

Disclosure of Invention

The invention aims to provide a corner cabinet device, which can realize more effective utilization of corner space even under the condition of simple movement of a partition board.

According to the invention, this object is achieved in that the second cabinet region also has a partition which extends in the second cabinet region and in a further part of the corner space and can be pivoted out of a door opening of the cabinet region when the door is opened.

The base area of the corner space is thus used according to the invention by two partitions, each of which extends into the other of the two cabinet regions. Thereby, the two partitions can together form a storage space which largely covers the plan view of the corner space, whereas each individual partition covers only a part of the corner space. This makes it possible to select the size and shape of each partition in such a way that the partition can be moved far out of the door opening with a relatively simple movement process, so that the entire storage space can be easily accessed.

Advantageous embodiments of the invention are indicated in the dependent claims.

In one embodiment, the corner cabinet arrangement is made up of two separate cabinets, each of which occupies one of two rectangular cabinet regions and a portion of the corner space. The borderline between two portions of corner spaces belonging to different cabinets may extend, for example, along a diagonal of the corner space, so that each of the two cabinets has a generally trapezoidal plan view. The two cabinets may have the same depth so that the corner space has a square cross-section. Furthermore, the two cabinets may have the same width or may have different widths, so that the corner cabinet arrangement is symmetrical or asymmetrical with respect to the diagonal of the corner space.

The doors of the two cabinets may be hinged on the inside so that their hinges are located on two vertical borders of the door opening, which are adjacent to each other at the inner corners. However, the door may alternatively be hinged on the outside, so that the hinge is located on the side of the door opening remote from the inner corner. It is also possible to have asymmetrical door hinges, where one door hinges on the inside and the other on the outside.

Finally, solutions are also conceivable in which at least one of the two doors is formed as a sliding door. In a particularly advantageous embodiment, the sliding door is guided on the cabinet such that it extends diagonally along the corner space in the open position. This has the advantage that the door opening can be released without the need for space to be provided outside the respective furniture carcass for accommodating the sliding door in the open position.

The cabinet body with trapezoidal plan view can be used not only for corner cabinet solutions, but also for the design of kitchen furniture or furniture in general, in which the cabinet walls of the cabinet furniture not only form right angles to one another, but also have walls that are inclined with respect to the front plane. An efficient use of space in such cabinets is also possible by the partition which can be pivoted out. In a further aspect, the invention also relates to a cabinet having the features given in claim 11.

Detailed Description

The arrangement of a corner cabinet arrangement, for example a floor cabinet of a galley unit, is shown in a schematic plan view in fig. 1. The corner cabinet arrangement is divided in plan view into three rectangular regions, namely a first cabinet region 10, a second cabinet region 12 and a corner space 14. Each of the two cabinet regions 10, 12 has a front end formed substantially by a door 16 or 18. The two front ends meet at an inner corner 20.

In the example shown, the cabinet regions 10, 12 have the same depth, so that the corner space 14 enclosed between them has a square plan view.

In the example shown, the corner cabinet arrangement is formed by two separate cabinets 22, 24 which are symmetrical to one another and each have a trapezoidal plan view and each cover one of the two cabinet regions 10, 12 and half of the corner space 14 and are therefore adjacent to one another in the corner space along a diagonal of the corner space. In the example shown, each cabinet has a floor 26, side walls 28, a rear wall 30, and a sloped wall 32 extending along a diagonal of the corner space 14. The angled wall 32 need not be completely closed and may be omitted entirely if necessary, as it only separates the interior of one cabinet 22 from the interior of the other cabinet 24.

At least one partition 34, 36 is provided in each of the two cabinets 22, 24, which occupies the largest part of the area of the first cabinet region 10 or of the second cabinet region 12, respectively, and also extends into the corner space 14, so that the partition also covers as far as possible half of the corner space allocated to the respective cabinet 22 or 24.

By means of known fittings, which are therefore not described further here, each partition 34, 36 can be rotated about a rotational axis 38 or 40, so that the partition can be rotated out of the door opening of the cabinet when the door 16 is opened, as is shown for the partition 34 in fig. 2, wherein the rotational movement can be superimposed on a linear translational movement. The contours of the partitions 34, 36 are rounded so that the partitions can be swung out of the door opening without colliding with the side walls 28 or rear wall 30 of the respective cabinet.

In fig. 2, the shelf 34 is shown in solid lines in an end position, in which the shelf 34 is not only rotated about the axis 38, but is also pulled linearly out of the door opening, so that the user can easily reach the entire storage space of the shelf.

The partition 36 may also be pivoted out of the door opening of the cabinet 24 closed by the door 18 in a similar manner.

Each of the two cabinets 22, 24 may optionally have a plurality of partitions, which may be individually or integrally rotatable and extractable. The partitions in the different cabinets 22, 24 do not necessarily have to be arranged at the same height.

Figure 3 shows the corner cabinet arrangement in a state where both doors 16, 18 are open and both partitions 34, 36 are rotated out and pulled out. The door 18 of the cabinet 24 differs from the door 16 of the cabinet 22 in that a vertically extending corner strip 42 is provided on the free end of the door 18, the free leg of which meets the door 16 flush when the door is closed (fig. 1).

Fig. 4 shows a modified embodiment in which the two cabinet regions 10, 12 have the same depth but different widths, so that the entire arrangement is asymmetrical with respect to the diagonal of the corner space 14. Here, the two cabinets 22, 24 together form an L-shaped plan view with legs of different lengths.

In the embodiment shown in fig. 1 to 4, the doors 16, 18 are each hinged on the outside, i.e. they are connected to the side wall 28 of the respective cabinet by hinges not shown. Fig. 5 shows an alternative in which the doors 16, 18 are hinged on the inside, i.e. on the vertical borders of the door opening adjacent to each other in the region of the inner corners. In this case, the door 18 does not have corner bars, but is instead provided with ledges 44, the ledges 44 having the same shape as the corner bars 42 in fig. 3, but being fixedly arranged with respect to the cabinets 22, 24. The two doors 16, 18 are connected to the ledge 44 by hinges, not shown. In the state shown in fig. 5, the door 16 is opened and the partition 34 is pulled out. The door 18 may also be opened in a similar manner to pull out the partition 36. Of course, this variant is also possible in the case of an asymmetrical arrangement of the cabinets 22, 24.

Fig. 6 shows a variant in which the door 16 of the cabinet 22 is hinged on the inside, i.e. on the ledge 44, and the door 18 of the cabinet 24 is hinged on the outside, i.e. on the side wall 28 of the same cabinet. The cabinets 22, 24 have an asymmetrical arrangement in this example, but a door hinge in the same way can of course also be used in the case of a symmetrical arrangement.

Fig. 7 to 9 show an embodiment in which sliding doors 16 ', 18' are provided instead of pivotable doors 16, 18. In this case, the inclined walls 32 of the two cabinets 22, 24 are arranged at a distance from one another so that they form a hoistway 46, which, as shown in fig. 8 and 9, can accommodate each of the two doors 16 ', 18' and together the two doors in the open condition. The shaft 46 widens towards the inner corner 20, so that the sliding doors 16 ', 18', which are guided by means of suitable sliding door fittings on the base plate 26 and, if necessary, on the ceiling of the cabinet, can be guided into the shaft 46 with a superimposed rotational and sliding movement in order to release the door opening.

In fig. 8, the sliding door 18 'is closed, while the sliding door 16' is open and pushed into the shaft 46, so that the partition 34 can be pulled out through the door opening released there. At the lower edge of the door opening a guide rail 48 for the lower edge of the sliding door is visible.

In fig. 9, both sliding doors 16 ', 18' are open and housed in the hoistway 46. The partition 36 is shown in a pulled out position.

Fig. 10 schematically illustrates a plan view of a cabinet having a trapezoidal cabinet body 50. The trapezoidal plan view is composed of a rectangular cabinet region 52 and a triangular cabinet region 54. In its principle construction, the cabinet shown in fig. 10 corresponds to the cabinet body 22 in the corner cabinet arrangement according to fig. 1. Fig. 10 shows a plan view of the partition 34, which can be pivoted out of the door opening 56, and the position of the inclined wall 32, which does not necessarily have to be forced against another corner cabinet element. The door opening 56 is located in the shorter base of the trapezoidal plan view and the partition 34, which is fully contained within the cabinet as shown in fig. 10, also extends into the triangular cabinet region 54.

Fig. 11 shows a cabinet arrangement with two cabinets 50 of the type shown in fig. 10 arranged mirror-symmetrically to each other at one wall, so that the inclined wall 32 is visible from the interior of the room.

Figure 12 shows another arrangement having a combination of two trapezoidal cabinets and one cabinet which is rectangular in plan view. This arrangement can be placed in the kitchen independently, for example as a kitchen island.

Other examples of possible arrangements of trapezoidal cabinets in combination with conventional cabinets having a rectangular plan view are shown in figures 13 to 16. The arrangement according to fig. 13 can be used, for example, as a solution for a kitchen island, while the arrangement of fig. 14 can also be placed selectively on the wall 60, so that a trapezoidal cabinet projects into the room, while the rectangular cabinet elements 58 adjoin the wall 60 with the side walls, respectively.

Figure 15 shows the possibility of filling the niche formed in the wall 62 with a cabinet.

Figure 16 shows a corner cabinet solution with four trapezoidal cabinet elements.
