摘要:
A support-framework (1) supports a surface (2), or supported elements, at a designed variable spacing from a support surface (3), using elongate supports (4) of rod-from or tubular-form that act as ties or struts. Each support (4) is anchored at one of its ends to the supported surface (2) or element and, at the other end, to the support surface (3). The anchoring at each end is via a node N that involves an individual domed-member (5) which is secured to the relevant surface (2, 3) or supported element, and which has a part-spherical surface (6) to which the elongate supports (4) are anchored to extend radially by a coupling (12). The domed-members (5) are metallic or plastics, and may each be hemispherical having an outwardly directed equatorial flange (7) by which they are secured to the relevant surface (2, 3) or supported element.

Disclosed is a system of spherical joints and tubular beams that interconnect to make a spatial reticulate construction based on geometries composed of basic tetrahedral and semi-tetrahedral modules. The joint includes two equal semispherical caps symmetrically organized around a central plate with four or more square fissure sections, joined by a single central screw allowing simultaneous clamping of eight or more hammer terminals at the beam ends. These extremities have a prismatic hammer shape with hexadecagonal base and a multifaceted hemisphere. The frames have a prismatic square section, allowing rotation only in the plane of the board of the joint. The design has a prismatic shape with a square section of multifaceted pole hammer terminals present both on the hammer head and within the caps which eliminates the structural instability that arises in the reticular structure due to the rotation of the beams around the several crux after clamping.

A node element for a furniture system having a three-dimensional load-bearing tubular structure comprises a plurality of connection points for the mechanical fastening of two or more tubes. It further comprises two regions which are electrically insulated from each other and which are arranged such that two electrical polarities can be coaxially tapped at the connection points for the tubes.

A nodal system (30) for a load-bearing structure(100), comprising connection sections (19,19′) of beams (10,10′), converging with each other towards a node (101) so as to form an interstitial space. The nodal system (30) also comprises a locking key (40) having an input configuration, wherein it is insertable in the interstitial space, and a locking configuration, rotated with respect to the input configuration, wherein it is suitable for making a mechanical connection between the connection sections (19,19′) of the beams (10,10′). The nodal system (30) also has retention means (18, 18′, 48, 108) for connecting the locking key (40) to, the connection sections (19,19′) of the beams (10,10′) so as to make them integral the one with the other.
