Abstract: The present invention relates to a fastening device for fastening to a furniture panel. The fastening device comprises at least two dowels for reception in furniture panel recesses. The dowels are each connected to lateral ends of lever arms. The lever arms are centrally connected to each other at a hinge joint. One dowel may be displaced in relation to the other dowel between a furniture panel fastening position and a furniture panel releasing position of the fastening device. A fastening system for joining furniture parts, comprising the fastening device, is also disclosed. A method for using the fastening system is described as well as furniture assemblies using the system.

Abstract: A joining element has an anchoring portion for in-depth anchoring in the object and a head portion arranged proximally of the anchoring portion with respect to an insertion axis. The head portion has a lateral outer surface that has a structure that is well-defined, especially within tight tolerances. The joining element is positioned relative to an object of a non-liquefiable material such that the anchoring portion reaches into an opening of the object or is placed adjacent a mouth thereof. Then, the joining element is pressed towards a distal direction, to press the anchoring portion into the opening, while mechanical vibration energy is coupled into the joining element by a tool, in an amount and for a time sufficient for liquefaction of a portion of the thermoplastic material to cause interpenetration of the thermoplastic material into structures of the object.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a wall mounted storing construction or system that could hold a number of storing means. The storing means used may be shelves, hangers for different clothes, such as trousers or coats, shoe holders, rods etc. or for different combinations of these storing means. The storing system comprises uprights (1) and brackets (3), wherein the brackets (3) are mounted in the uprights (1). The brackets (3) are to receive the storing means, such as shelves (15). Each bracket (3) has a general u-from with an upper part and two walls, having ears (10) to be received in openings (22) of the uprights (1). The walls of brackets (3) are pressed together in the area of the ears (10) to allow the ears (10) of the brackets (3) to be pushed into the uprights (1). The uprights (1) are fixed to the wall. The upper end of each upright (1) is mounted on a horizontal assembly rail (2), being fixed to the wall.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a joint for assemble of two furniture parts to each other. A first furniture part (1) has a male part (3) for co-operation with a female part (4) of a second furniture part (2). Each of the male and female parts (3, 4) has a number of grooves (5, 6). At assembly the male part (3) is moved along the female part (4) by means of co-operation between the grooves (5, 6) of the male and female part (3, 4), respectively. The co-operating male and female parts (3, 4) have an insertion position and an end position, in which end position the furniture parts (1, 2) are assembled to each other. The grooves (5, 6) of one of the female and male parts (3, 4) are compressed during movement from the insertion position to the end position. The grooves (5, 6) of the pair of co-operating female part (4) and male part (3) are such that the furniture parts (1, 2) are pressed toward each other when the male part (3) is moved along the female part (4).

Abstract: A method and mechanism for moving an element, such as a sliding door (1), is disclosed. In the movement a first end of the element is first turned outwards, a second opposite end is then turned out placing the element in parallel with the original location of the element. The element is then displaced by extending a pull-out guide (4). The mechanism comprises a housing (2), the pull-out guide rail (4), a lock-and-release mechanism (19) and at least two lever arms (8, 11, 14, 16, 27, 30, 33, 39, 42). One end of a first lever arm (8, 27, 39) is received in a pivoting point (10, 29, 41) at the pull-out guide rail (4) and the opposite end of said lever arm (8, 27, 39) is received in a pivoting point (9, 28, 40) at the housing (2). The pivoting point (10, 29, 41) at the pull-out guide rail (4) is placed at a first end of the pull-out guide rail (4).

Abstract: A pull-out mechanism for mounting a drawer in a drawer cavity of a piece of furniture. The mechanism may include an upper pull-out rail with a substantially U-shaped cross-section affixed to the drawer and may optionally include a lower rail with a substantially U-shaped cross-section affixed to a wall in a drawer cavity. The mechanism may also have an intermediate rail, which is disposed between the upper rail and the lower rail, or alternatively may support the upper rail while attaching to the wall. One or more bearing holders provided with at least one ball bearing and a plurality of rollers or wheels supports the upper rail and optional lower rail in a mounted relationship with the intermediate rail.

Abstract: Device for securing a soft ending of the opening movement of a drawer as the latter is drawn towards an outer limit stop (10), the drawer being mounted in a (not-shown) furniture body and capable of being pulled out from said body, and in which there may be one or more rails (1, 3) between the drawer and the furniture body. The device comprises a damper (6) filled with a fluid medium attached to the furniture body—or to a rail of the furniture body—and a piston with a piston rod (7) being reciprocable in said damper (6), the free end of the piston rod (7) being attached to a tilt-able rocker (9). Whenever the piston rod (7) close to its outermost position is moved in and out in the damper (6), the rocker can be moved on a guide portion (17)—mounted at the damper (6)—between a first end position (FIG.

The grooves (5, 6) of one of the female and male parts (3, 4) are compressed during movement from the insertion position to the end position. The grooves (5, 6) of the pair of co-operating female part (4) and male part (3) are such that the furniture parts (1, 2) are pressed toward each other when the male part (3) is moved along the female part (4).
