Patent number: 11122895Abstract: A railing strut includes an end region to be connected to a wall element of the drawer. The railing strut, on the end region, includes a locking device having a locking element to be engaged with the wall element for locking the railing strut. The railing strut further includes a movably mounted actuating element, and the locking element can be moved by applying a force to the actuating element into a release position in which the locking between the railing strut and the wall element can be released when the railing strut is in a locked condition with the wall element. The actuating element, when the railing strut is locked to the wall element, is accessible for manual actuation and can be directly actuated, so that the locking between the railing strut and the wall element can be released by manual actuation of the actuating element.Type: GrantFiled: June 5, 2020Date of Patent: September 21, 2021Assignee: Julius Blum GmbHInventor: Markus Kampl

Patent number: 11078699Abstract: A furniture hinge includes a first fitting portion and a second fitting portion, the second fitting portion being pivotally connected to the first fitting portion by a hinge axis member. At least one of the fitting portions includes a base plate to be fixed to a furniture part, and an adjusting plate coupled to the hinge axis member, the adjusting plate being displaceably arranged on the base plate. A preferably pivotally mounted adjustment element can adjust a position of the adjusting plate relative to the base plate along a linear guide to adjust a position of the first fitting portion relative to the second fitting portion. A gap is formed between the first fitting portion and the second fitting portion in at least one relative position of the furniture hinge, and the adjustment element can be actuated by introducing a tool into the gap.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 2019Date of Patent: August 3, 2021Assignee: Julius Blum GmbHInventor: Ingo Gasser

Patent number: 11053721Abstract: A drive device for a movable furniture part includes an ejection force accumulator which can be tensioned, and an ejection element mechanically loaded by the ejection force accumulator and used to carry out an ejection movement of the moveable furniture part from a closed position into an open position. The ejection movement can be initiated by a compression movement of the movable furniture part into a compression position which is behind the closed position. The drive device also comprises a tensioning device for tensioning the ejection force accumulator with energy which can be emitted by the ejection movement. During the compression movement, at least 50% of the energy emitted by the ejection force accumulator during the ejection movement can be introduced into the ejection force accumulator by the tensioning device.Type: GrantFiled: July 18, 2017Date of Patent: July 6, 2021Assignee: Julius Blum GmbHInventors: Fredi Dubach, Marco Ruecker

Patent number: 11047161Abstract: A furniture drive for moving a furniture part movably supported relative to a furniture carcass the furniture drive includes a housing having a first housing wall to be fixed to the furniture carcass, and a second housing wall at least partially spaced from the first housing wall. At least the first housing wall includes a guide device for guiding a fastener. At least one supporting body is configured so as to be separate from the guide device for guiding the fastener, at least partially surrounds the guide device, and is firmly connected to the first housing wall as well as to the second housing wall so that a movement of the second housing wall relative to the first housing wall is restrained.Type: GrantFiled: October 29, 2019Date of Patent: June 29, 2021Assignee: Julius Blum GmbHInventor: Andreas Holzapfel

Patent number: 11006747Abstract: A drive device for a movable furniture part, in particular a drawer, includes a housing, an ejection device which is arranged in the housing for ejecting the movable furniture part out of a closed position into an open position, and a retraction device which is arranged in the same housing for retracting the movable furniture part out of an open position into the closed position. The drive device has a first operating mode and a second operating mode. In the first operating mode, only the retraction device is operative while opening and closing the movable furniture part, and in the second operating mode, both the ejection device and the retraction device are operative while opening and closing the movable furniture part.Type: GrantFiled: January 5, 2018Date of Patent: May 18, 2021Assignee: Julius Blum GmbHInventor: Daniel Wohlgenannt

Patent number: 11008791Abstract: A guide system includes a first guide rail and a second guide rail for guiding furniture parts. The second guide rail extends transversely relative to the first guide rail in a mounted position. A guiding device is to be connected to one of the furniture parts, and is movable relative to the first and second guide rails and can be transferred in a crossing region between the first and second guide rail. The guide system has a drive device with an entrainment member acted upon by a force storage member and configured to be releasably coupled to the guiding device. The entrainment member is locked in a parking position and can be unlocked by an entry of the guiding device into the crossing region. Thus, the entrainment member and the guiding device coupled therewith can be retracted along the second guide rail by a force of the force storage member.Type: GrantFiled: June 18, 2019Date of Patent: May 18, 2021Assignee: Julius Blum GmbHInventors: Matthias Rupp, Christian Hauer, Hermann Haemmerle, Ingo Gasser, Franz Kohlweiss

Patent number: 10995830Abstract: A furniture drive for a furniture part movably-supported relative to a furniture carcass, includes at least one pivotally mounted actuating arm for moving the movable furniture part, a spring device for applying a force to the actuating arm, and a transmission mechanism for transmitting a force from the spring device to the actuating arm. The transmission mechanism includes a first setting contour having a first torque progression and a pressure portion pressurized by the spring device. The pressure portion is configured to run along the first setting contour upon a movement of the actuating arm, and a second setting contour having a second torque progression deviating from the first torque progression and a switching device are provided. The second setting contour can be engaged with the pressure portion so that the pressure portion is configured to run along the second setting contour upon a movement of the actuating arm.Type: GrantFiled: October 16, 2018Date of Patent: May 4, 2021Assignee: Julius Blum GmbHInventors: Alexander Simon Flogaus, Franz Kohlweiss

Patent number: 10966523Abstract: A connecting pin for fastening a first furniture part to a second furniture part, includes a fastening portion for fastening the connecting pin to the first furniture part, and a holding portion for connecting the connecting pin to the second furniture part. The holding portion of the connecting pin includes a connecting portion facing the fastening portion, the connecting portion being a protrusion or a recess for connecting the second furniture part to the connecting pin in a form-locking manner. A head portion is spaced from the connecting portion along a longitudinal direction of the connecting pin by a neck portion. In a condition in which the connecting pin is fixed to the first furniture part via the fastening portion, at least two different second furniture parts can be alternatively connected to the connecting pin by the connecting portion in a form-locking manner and/or by the head portion in a force-locking manner.Type: GrantFiled: July 24, 2019Date of Patent: April 6, 2021Assignee: Julius Blum GmbHInventors: Markus Kampl, Markus Irgang, Gerald Sperger, Guenter Schwarzmann
