BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a combining and expanding structure of a layered frame, with a novel design of a combining hook respectively combined at four distal corner pars of a layer plate, when a requirement of expanding the specification of the layered frame, only a single-rod lateral frame is needed for finishing an combining and expanding operation of the layered frame, instead of a dual-rod lateral frame, so that advantages of being more practical and flexible in use are provided.
Description of Related Art
For satisfying various interior designs of an office and domestic space designs, a conventional fixed furniture often causes a problem of being limited for the arrangement due to the limited internal space, for solving this problem, an assembled type or a specified assembled type furniture has been developed for meeting the requirement of freely adjusting the arrangement, so that the furniture can be more flexibly arranged in terms of space layout.
There are several types of assembled layered frames available in the market, for example being made of wood, plastic or metal, wherein the metal-made assembled layered frame is expensive but still draws a lot of consumers' attentions because it is strong and durable, so that the metal-made assembled layered frame is popular in this market sector.
In the conventional assembled layered frame, screw bolts are often utilized for locking the layer plate and the frame rack with a fastening means, or pipe sleeves are provided at distal corner parts of the layer plate which work with positioning adhesive sleeves provided on posts of the frame body, thereby achieving an effect of sleeving and positioning, the above-mentioned fastening means is able to allow the metal layer plate to be combined with the posts of the frame body; however, the assembling procedure is complicated and labor consuming, when the amount of layer plates and the intervals are desired to be adjusted, more inconveniences are caused, and the whole assembly may even have to be detached then reassembled again; as such, the aforesaid disadvantages shall be improved; moreover, the conventional layered frame cannot be combined for expansion, thus the practicability is very much limited, as such, the above-mentioned disadvantage shall be improved.
In view of the above-mentioned disadvantages, the applicant of the present invention has developed an assembled metal layered frame, in which four distal corner parts of a metal layer plate are provided with combining hooks which work with a dual-rod frame rod for being mutually buckled and combined for finishing the whole assembly, with the structural design of the combining hook, there is no need of screw bolt when the layer plate is combined with the frame rod, and there is also no requirement of detaching the whole assembly when an adjustment is desired, so that functions of flexibly adjusting the amount of layer plates and the intervals can be provided; meanwhile, the amount of frame rods can be increased with respect to the actual needs for a purpose of being horizontally expanded.
However, when the above-mentioned layered frame is desired to be horizontally expanded, the dual-rod frame rod has to be provided as a combining interface for two lateral frames, thus the plate layers at two sides can be respectively provided with individual posts for being buckled and combined without being interfered with each other or affecting the combination, as such, the assembly is limited and the dual-rod frame rod would cause unnecessary assembling cost of the whole structure; accordingly, a novel design having a better economic benefit shall be provided for solving the above-mentioned disadvantages.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
In view of the problems and disadvantages caused by the layer plate of the conventional metal layered frame and the combining hook of the post in terms of being combined for a purpose of expansion, the applicant of the present invention has devoted himself to design a combining and expanding structure of a layered frame.
