Abstract: An interlock for a stack of drawers. A pair of drawer slides mounts each drawer, the interlock assembly being fitted to the rear of one of the drawer slides. A housing has a plate slidably supported thereon biased towards the rear of the slide. An actuator having an actuating surface co-operates with an actuator follower slidably supported in the slide member for movement at right angles to the movement of the plate. Releasable latching means extends between the housing and plate. Releasable catching means extend between the plate and the actuator. When a drawer is moved towards an open position, the catching means causes the plate to move to a blocking position where it can be held by the latching means, causing the actuating surface to co-operate with a follower surface on the actuator follower to move the actuator follower from a first position to a blocking position.

Abstract: Electrification of a furniture system which has a plurality of structural elements, formed for receiving functional furniture units, comprises multiple plugs (21 or 31) which can be fastened to a part of the structural element and cables (22 or 32) which are carried on a part of the structural element. The cables (22 or 32) have a predetermined length and serve as an electrical connection between multiple plugs (21 or 31) of two neighboring structural elements. The structural elements are preferably closed frames (1, 2 or 19), which are formed from at least two vertical longitudinal struts (5 or 6) and at least two horizontally connecting stays (3 or 4). The multiple plugs (21 or 31) are clipped on the longitudinal struts (5 or 6), in longitudinal slots (7) arranged therein, in such a way that they can be displaced along the longitudinal slots (7). A set incrementation or a fastening means protruding from the longitudinal struts (5 or 6) may also be provided.

Abstract: A furniture unit has a plurality of mutually delimited furniture compartments, which in particular are designed as display cabinets. At least one lighting member can be installed as required in each furniture compartment. Rod elements of a predetermined length are provided to carry the electrical current and are affixed within the furniture unit. Furthermore, mountings are provided whereby the rod elements can each be completely retained within a furniture compartment. Connection elements provide an electrical connection between rod elements of different furniture compartments. The connection elements are designed as flexible conductors in some regions and may be 1:n branches (n=2, 3, etc.). The mountings are so arranged and designed that the rod elements are essentially fixed at both ends, it being possible for the connection elements to be connected at any time, as necessary to the ends of the rod elements.

Abstract: A furniture unit has a plurality of mutually delimited furniture compartments, which in particular are designed as display cabinets. At least one lighting member (21) can be installed as required in each furniture compartment. Rod elements (17.1 to 17.8) of a predetermined length are provided to carry the electrical current and are affixed within the furniture unit. Furthermore, mountings are provided whereby the rod elements (17.1 to 17.8) can each be completely retained within a furniture compartment. Connection elements (19.1 to 19.4) provide an electrical connection between rod elements of different furniture compartments. The connection elements (19.1 to 19.4) are designed as flexible conductors in some regions and may be 1:n branches (n=2, 3, etc.). The mountings are so arranged and designed that the rod elements are essentially fixed at both ends, it being possible for the connection elements to be connected at any time, as necessary, to the ends of the rod elements.
