    Description

    PRIORITY CLAIM



    [0001] This application claims priority from Italian Patent Application No. 102017000052303 filed on May 15, 2017.

    [0002] This patent application relates to a waste bin-carrying framework and to a drawer, in particular for the waste separate collection.

    [0003] Normally, a drawer for the waste separate collection consists of a bracket installed inside the compartment of a cabinet where the drawer operates, a framework sliding along the bracket and configured to support one or more waste bins, a front door fixed to the framework.

    [0004] The cabinet and the door are usually built by the furniture maker and the bracket generally is supplied by the furniture maker to be installed inside the cabinet.

    [0005] On the other hand, the waste bin-carrying framework is built by a supplier of the furniture maker. Therefore, the supplier manufacturing the frameworks is forced to find technical solutions that can adjust to the different cabinet and bracket formats offered by furniture makers.

    [0006] The main problems currently arising lie in the fact that, given the same width of the compartment where the drawer needs to operate, each furniture maker installs its own bracket with shapes and sizes that are different from those installed by other furniture makers.

    [0007] Known waste bin-carrying frameworks are made of sheet metal and are manufactured as one single piece. As a consequence, framework manufacturers must produce a series of models thereof, each configured for the type of bracket used by the furniture maker. Furthermore, the bracket with the frameworks currently available in the market remains visible and, therefore, not only is it unsightly, but it also collects dust and possible waste parts (we remember the type of use of the drawer).

    [0008] In addition, the brackets currently available in the market can be mounted so as to horizontally project inside the compartment, these guides are not very good to look at and substantially forbid the application of known frameworks and the usual installation of waste bins. Finally, in current frameworks it is hard to adjust the width thereof so as to obtain a precise and effective support for the waste bins.

    [0009] An object of the invention is to provide a waste bin-carrying frameworks that are pleasant to look at and linear, waste bin adjust to different furniture formats and, at the same time, permit the application of economies of scale.

    [0010] A further object of the invention is to provide a waste bin-carrying framework that can easily adjust to commonly used cabinets, is easy and cheap to be manufactured and can easily be installed.

    [0011] A further object of the invention is to provide a waste bin-carrying framework that permits economies of scale and can be easily changed so as to be adjusted to different cabinets.

    [0012] According to the invention, there is provided a waste bin-carrying framework according to the appended claims.

    [0013] According to the invention, there is further provided a drawer according to the appended claims.

    [0014] The invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings, which show non-limiting embodiments thereof, wherein:
    • figure 1 is a perspective view of a drawer according to the invention;
    • figure 2 is a perspective view of a waste bin-carrying framework according to the invention during the use and with some components removed for greater clarity;
    • figure 3 is an exploded view of the detail of figure 2;
    • figure 4 is similar to figure 2 and is a perspective view of a different version of a waste bin-carrying framework according to the invention§;
    • figure 5 shows a particular of figure 3;
    • figure 6 shows a further particular of figure 3;
    • figures 7 and 8 shows two respective different versions of a particular of figure 3.


    [0015] In figure 1, number 1 indicates, as a whole, a drawer 1, in particular for the waste separate collection, which is installed inside a compartment 2 obtained in a cabinet 3. In particular, the cabinet 3 substantially has the shape of a parallelepiped with a longitudinal axis A and comprises:
    • a base 4 configured to be arranged on a supporting surface π and a shelf 7, which are parallel to and opposite one another;
    • a right side wall 5I and a left side wall 5II, which are parallel to and opposite one another;
    • a rear back 6I and a front door 6II, which are parallel to and opposite one another.


    [0016] The door 6II is selectively movable from a closing position to an opening position, and vice versa. Hereinafter, the terms right/left and front/rear are used with reference to the arrangement shown in figure 1 and in order to indicate elements that tare parallel to one another and substantially perpendicular to the supporting surface n. The term horizontal means substantially parallel to the supporting surface n and the term vertical means substantially perpendicular to the supporting surface n.

    [0017] Furthermore, in the description below:
    • height means the extension along the longitudinal axis A;
    • width means the distance between the right side wall 5I and the left side wall 5II and an extension parallel thereto;
    • depth means the distance between the back 6I and the door 6II, when the door 6II is closed and an extension parallel thereto.


    [0018] The drawer 1 is a sliding drawer and further comprises a waste bin-carrying framework 8, which is mounted inside the compartment 2 and connects the door 6II to the side walls 5I and 5II. Therefore, the door 6II translates in an integral manner with the waste bin-carrying framework 8 from a closing position to an opening position, and vice versa.

    [0019] In particular, the drawer 1 has a height that is such as to allow it to accommodate waste bins R.

    [0020] The waste bin-carrying framework 8 is configured to house waste bins R having a cup-shaped body with the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped and an inner cavity h, which can be accessed through a top opening p.

    [0021] Preferably, the waste bins R have a top edge s, which delimits the top opening p and is configured to allow the trash waste bin R to be connected to the waste bin-carrying framework 8 with a shape coupling or through interference.

    [0022] The waste bin-carrying framework 8 supports the door 6II. The waste bin-carrying framework 8 is movable, in particular can slide, inside the compartment 2. The waste bin-carrying framework 8 comprises a frame 9 and a connection element 10, which connects the frame 9 to the cabinet 3 and permits a relative movement, in particular sliding, between the frame 9 and the cabinet 3.

    [0023] According to the example shown in figures 2 and 3, the connection element 10 is a bracket comprising:
    • a guide 12, which is configured to be fixed in a known manner to a respective side wall of the cabinet 3 and comprises, in turn, in a known manner, a track 121 and a slide 122, which is mounted so as to slide along said track; and
    • a case 11, which is mounted on the slide 122 of the guide 12, so as to slide along the respective track 121; the case 11 connects the guide 12 to the frame 9.


    [0024] Advantageously, the connection element 10 comprises, furthermore, an angle 13, which connects the door 6II to the guide 12. According to figures 2 and 3, the angle 13 is known. The angle 13 is connected to the case 11.

    [0025] Advantageously the case 11 is U shaped and is made by a folded metal sheet. The case 11 is fitted around the respective guide 12 and has a horizontal flat surface 111.

    [0026] Advantageously, the bracket 10 is made of a metal material.

    [0027] According to the example shown in figures 2 and 3, the waste bin-carrying frame 8 comprises a right bracket 10I and a left bracket 10II, which connect the frame 9 to the right side wall 5I and to the left side wall 5II, respectively. Furthermore, the waste bin-carrying framework 8 comprises a right case 11I and a left case 11II, which are coupled, in a known and sliding manner, to the right guide 12I and to the left guide 12II, respectively.

    [0028] The frame 9 of the framework 8 comprises:
    • two side boards, hereinafter referred to as right side board 14I and left side board 14II; and
    • two cross bars, hereinafter referred to as front cross bar 15I and rear cross bar 15II, respectively.


    [0029] Preferably, the cross bars 15I and 15II are perpendicular to the side boards 14I and 14II.

    [0030] The cross bars 15I and 15II have the same width. The cross bars 15I and 15II are chosen within a group of cross bars 15I and 15II having different widths. In other words, the width of the bars 15I and 15II is variable depending on the width of the compartment 2. The cross bars 15I and 15II can be made of a metal material, for example sheet metal.

    [0031] The side boards 14I and 14II are equal to mirror-like relative to one another. The side boards 14I and 14II are made of a polymer material. The side boards 14I and 14II are manufactured by means of polymer material processing process. Advantageously, each side board 14 is manufactured as one single piece. Advantageously each side board 14 has an external surface 141 which is flat. Advantageously each side board 14 is placed on the respective horizontal flat surface 111 of the case 11. Each side board 14 is connected to the respective flat surface 111 of the case 11.

    [0032] Each external surface 141 is visible when the door 6II is in the opening position (as shown in figure 2). Each external surface 141 is parallel to and overlooks the respective side wall 5. A flat/plain external surface 141 prevent from collecting dust and possible waste parts between the waste bin-carrying frame 8 and the cabinet 3.

    [0033] The right side board 14I is fixed to the right carriage 12I. The left side board 14II is fixed to the left carriage 12II. The side boards 12I and 12II are substantially parallel to one another and are configured so as to slide along the side walls 5I and 5II, respectively. Each side board 14I or 14II is arranged on the respective carriage 12I or 12II, namely it rests on the respective carriage 12I or 12II and does not laterally projects from the latter.

    [0034] By so doing, the space taken up by the connection element 10 inside the compartment 2 is minimized, thus maximizing the use of the available space. Furthermore, each side board 14I or 14II hides the respective carriage 12I or 12II.

    [0035] The frame 9 further comprises a supporting wall 18, which is connected crosswise to a respective side board 14 and projects inside the waste bin-carrying framework 8. The supporting wall 18 has a width that is such as to ensure the housing and the bearing of a waste bin R.

    [0036] Advantageously, the supporting wall 18 is made of a polymer material. The supporting wall 18 is manufactured by means of polymer material processing process.

    [0037] The supporting wall 18 is chosen within a group of supporting walls 18 having different sizes, in particular having different widths. The supporting wall 18 is chosen depending on the sizes of the waste bin R to be supported and on the width of the compartment 2.

    [0038] Advantageously, the supporting wall 18 is made so as to cover possible releasable connection elements, for example screws, connecting the respective abutment wall 14 to the carriage 12 of the bracket 10. By so doing it is possible to obtain a continuous and uniform surface, avoiding the presence of edges or corners where possible dirt can accumulate.

    [0039] Advantageously, the supporting wall 18 is connected to the respective side boards 14 with releasable means, for example screws. In this way, the supporting surface 18 can be replaced with another one having different sizes, in case there is a change in the sizes, in particular in the width, of the waste bin R to be supported or of the compartment 2 in which it is inserted.

    [0040] According to the example shown in figures 2 and 3, the waste bin-carrying framework 8 comprises a right supporting wall 18I and a left supporting wall 18II. The right supporting wall 18I is substantially parallel to the supporting surface π, namely perpendicular to the respective right side board 14I. Similarly, the left supporting wall 18I is substantially parallel to the supporting surface π, namely perpendicular to the respective left side board 14II.

    [0041] Advantageously, each side board 14 has projecting elements 142 which project, in use, toward the respective supporting wall 18. Each supporting wall 18 has a housing 181 which is configured to be coupled with the projecting elements 142 of the respective side board 14 so as to form, in use, a shape connection. According to the example shown in the figures, each supporting wall 18 has a housing 181 which faces, in use, the respective side board 14. Each side board 14 has a C shaped projecting elements 142, which are housed, in use, inside the respective housing 181. By so doing, it is guarantee a high mechanical strength of each supporting wall 18 and of the waste bin-carrying framework 8.

    [0042] In figures 4 and 5, number 108 indicates a different version of the waste bin-carrying framework shown in figures 2 and 3. Figures 4 and 5 show an assembly consisting of waste bins R' and a waste bin-carrying framework 108 having a different format from the one shown in figures 2 and 3. In particular, the waste bin-carrying framework 108 is configured to suit to a compartment (not shown) having a smaller width than the compartment 2.

    [0043] The components shown in figures 4 and 5 are substantially the same as the ones shown in figures 2 and 3; therefore, the same components are considers as included in the framework 108 without having to discuss them again and they also keep the same numbers. On the other hand, those components that are similar, but have different sizes keep the same numbers, but in the order of hundreds.

    [0044] In particular, figures 4 and 5 show that the waste bin-carrying framework 108 has cross bars 115I, 115II with smaller sizes than the cross bars 15I and 15II of the framework 8. The supporting walls 118I and 118II have smaller sizes than the walls 18I and 18II of the framework 8, as well. On the other hand, the abutment walls 14 and the brackets 10 are substantially equal.

    [0045] Owing to the above, the waste bin-carrying framework 8, 108 can easily adjust to compartments 2 with different widths or can accommodate waste bins R, R' with different sizes by simply changing some components (in particular, the cross bars 15 and/or the supporting walls 18).

    [0046] Furthermore, in figures 7 and 8 with 218 and 318, respectively, are indicated respective versions of the supporting wall 18.

    [0047] Owing to the above, the side boards 14 and the brackets 10 can be used to build a wide range of waste bin-carrying frameworks 8 and can be produced in large numbers, thus permitting economies of scale in the production.

    [0048] Furthermore, the fact that the side boards 14 and the supporting walls 18, 118, 218, 318 are made of a polymer material reduces manufacturing times and costs. Furthermore, the fact that the side boards 14 and the supporting walls 18, 118, 218, 318 are made of a polymer material reduces transportation weights and costs.

    [0049] The waste bin-carrying framework 8, 108 of the type described above further allows users to maximize containing spaces, as the space take up by the brackets 10, namely by the cases 11 and the guides 12, is used to support the respective side boards 14.

    [0050] The waste bin-carrying framework 8, 108 of the type described above further allows users to simply adjust the sizes of the frame 9, 109, in particular the width, if necessary even upon installation thereof.
