Abstract

A supporting frame for a piece of furniture, wherein the supporting frame includes at least one outer side, and wherein the supporting frame is made out of one continuous piece of material. The supporting frame including several layers, wherein each layer includes one and the same single continuous piece of material in the entire extent of the layer and wherein each individual layer is contiguous with at least a second layer. Hereby, improved manufacturing, a stronger supporting frame and a wider range of useful materials for supporting frames are obtained.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A supporting frame for a piece of furniture, wherein the supporting frame comprises:
 an outer side extending from a top edge to a bottom edge of the supporting frame, and wherein the supporting frame is made out of a single continuous piece of material, wherein the single continuous piece of material comprises individual layers providing a stratification of the outer side of the supporting frame, wherein for each of the individual layers, the layer comprises one and the same single continuous piece of material in an entire extent of the layer; and   wherein each of the individual layers is contiguous with a second layer of the individual layers.   
     
     
         2 . The supporting frame according to  claim 1 , further comprising a bottom, wherein the bottom comprises one and the same single continuous piece of material. 
     
     
         3 . The supporting frame according to  claim 1 , further comprising a mounting ear for use for mounting of a furniture element. 
     
     
         4 . The supporting frame according to  claim 1 , comprising a leg recess. 
     
     
         5 . The supporting frame according to  claim 4 , wherein a screw hole is formed in the leg recess. 
     
     
         6 . The supporting frame according to  claim 1 , wherein the supporting frame is made of a material selected from the group consisting of: plywood, a plastic composite material and a hybrid material comprising a layer of wood and a layer of another suitable material, comprising plastic—fiber-reinforced or not, metal and other suitable material. 
     
     
         7 . A piece of furniture comprising:
 a supporting frame comprising:
 an outer side extending from a top edge to a bottom edge of the supporting frame, and wherein the supporting frame is made out of a single continuous piece of material, wherein the single continuous piece of material comprises individual layers providing a stratification of the outer side of the supporting frame, wherein for each of the individual layers, the layer comprises one and the same single continuous piece of material in an entire extent of the layer; and 
 wherein each of the individual layers is contiguous with a second layer of the individual layers; and 
   a leg attached to the supporting frame; and   a furniture element attached to the supporting frame, the furniture element selected from the group consisting of: a seat, a tabletop, a drawer, and a corpus.   
     
     
         8 . (canceled) 
     
     
         9 . A method for manufacturing a supporting frame comprising:
 an outer side extending from a top edge to a bottom edge of the supporting frame, and wherein the supporting frame is made out of a single continuous piece of material, wherein the single continuous piece of material comprises individual layers providing a stratification of the outer side of the supporting frame, wherein for each of the individual layers, the layer comprises one and the same single continuous piece of material in an entire extent of the layer; and
 wherein each of the individual layers is contiguous with a second layer of the individual layers; and 
   wherein the method comprises
 roughly adjusting the one and the same single continuous piece of material of each individual layer to outer measures of the supporting frame; and 
 finely adjusting the supporting frame to the outer measures, wherein subsequent to the roughly adjusting and prior to the finely adjusting, the method further comprises joining each of the individual layers with a second layer of the individual layers to form the supporting frame.
