  • Patent number: 10753133
    Abstract: An ejection device includes an ejection element for spreading apart a folding door from a closed position. At least two door wings are arranged in a common closing plane, towards an open position, and the at least two door wings form an angle different from 180° relative to each other. The ejection element can be acted upon by an energy storage member to be manually loaded by an operator, and the ejection device includes a locking device for releasably locking the ejection element against the force of the loaded energy storage member. The locking device can be unlocked by applying pressure to the folding door. The ejection device includes a movably-mounted loading element for loading the energy storage member by folding together the folding door. The ejection element and the loading element are spatially separated constructional units, and the ejection element is a pivotally mounted ejection lever.

  • Patent number: 10750861
    Abstract: A drive device for a movable furniture part includes a first lockable ejection device and a second lockable ejection device for ejecting the movable furniture part out of a closed position into an open position. The first ejection device has a first locking device and the second ejection device has a second locking device. The first locking device and the second locking device each have a locking position and an unlocking position. The first locking device and the second locking device are movable between the respective locking position and the respective unlocking position by rotational movement of a respective first component relative to a respective second component about a rotational axis oriented parallel to the longitudinal axis of the first ejection device and the second ejection device. A synchronizing device for synchronizing the first locking device and the second locking device.

  • Patent number: 10676976
    Abstract: The invention relates to an ejection device for ejecting a movable furniture part from a closed position into an open position along an opening path, comprising a support and a coupling device for coupling the ejection device to the movable furniture part. The coupling device has a coupling piece which can be moved relative to the support and a coupling counter piece which is arranged on the movable furniture part or on a furniture body. The coupling device has a coupling position and a decoupling position, and the ejection device can be coupled to the movable furniture part via the coupling device in the coupling position. The ejection device also comprises a controller, by means of which the coupling device can be switched depending on the opening path, and the coupling device reaches the decoupling position from the coupling position in the event of a specified opening path.

  • Patent number: 10662690
    Abstract: An actuating arm drive for a pivotably mounted actuating arm includes a pivotably mounted main lever, a force accumulator for exerting a force for supporting the opening and/or closing movement of the actuating arm drive on the main lever at a force introduction point, and a setting device for setting the force introduction point on the main lever. The force is introduced to the main lever at the force introduction point via a force introduction element which is loaded by the force accumulator via levers, and the setting device is designed to move the force introduction element along a bearing contour formed on the main lever. In each pivoting position of the main lever between the open and closed position of the actuating arm drive, and in each setting of the setting device, the loaded force introduction element is forced along the bearing contour in the same direction.

  • Patent number: 10590692
    Abstract: A furniture drive system includes a mechanical control unit having a pivotably mounted control arm for moving a movable furniture part, a spring device for applying force to the control arm, and a movably mounted control part having a transmission opening for transmitting a force from the spring device to the control arm. An electrical drive unit has an electric motor for moving the movable furniture part, and a driver to be driven by the electric motor for transmitting a torque of the electric motor to the mechanical control unit. The driver can be inserted into the transmission opening, and the electrical drive unit and the mechanical control unit are designed as separate assemblies and can be fastened to each other. A contact surface for the driver is arranged laterally adjacent to the transmission opening and the driver is preloaded toward the contact surface by a force store.

  • Patent number: 10508483
    Abstract: An ejection device includes a support formed as a housing; an ejection element for ejecting the movable furniture part from a closed position into an open position along an ejection path; an ejection force accumulator which applies a force to the ejection element in the opening direction of the movable furniture part; and a clamping device for clamping the ejection force accumulator. The clamping device has a clamping element to be coupled to the movable furniture part, and a movement transmission element, in particular a rotatable movement transmission element, between the clamping element and the ejection element. The clamping element and the ejection element can be moved in opposite directions when coupled by the movement transmission element when the ejection force accumulator is clamped, and the ejection element, the movement transmission element, and the clamping element are moveable together relative to the support over a first part of the ejection path.
