  • Patent number: 11613922
    Abstract: A guide system includes a first guide rail for guiding a door wing, a second guide rail for guiding the door wing. A carrier can move the door wing relative to the second guide rail in a direction extending transversely to the longitudinal direction of the first guide rail. A drive device has a force storage member, and the carrier can be at least partially ejected by the drive device from the retracted position of the carrier by a force of the force storage member. The drive device includes a coupling portion and a control curve, and the coupling portion and the control curve are decoupled over a large part of the movement of the carrier between the extended position and the retracted position. The carrier can be retracted into the retracted position starting from a position immediately before the retracted position when the coupling portion couples with the control curve.

  • Patent number: 11585136
    Abstract: A guide system for a door assembly including a door, which door can be attached to the guide system in a pivotal manner, has a closed position in which at least one device object can be covered on the front side and a parked position in which the door can be moved, preferably slid, in a direction transversely to the front of the at least one device object, preferably into a lateral receiving shaft, by the guide system. The guide system for the door is assembled or formed on a support structure separate from the device object to be covered, the support structure having at least one stand surface for standing on the floor of a room and/or at least one assembly device for assembling on the wall of a room.

  • Patent number: 11428034
    Abstract: An arrangement includes a first guide system to be fixed to a furniture wall and a second guide system to be fixed to the furniture wall a vertical distance from the first guide system. Each of the two guide systems has a guide and a guide body displaceably arranged on the guide, a carrier to which the sliding door or folding-sliding door can be fixed, and a cable pulling device for compensating for a tilting moment of the carrier. The cable pulling device includes a first pulling cable arranged between the guide body of the first guide system and an end of the guide of the first guide system and without connection to the second guide system. A second pulling cable is between the guide body of the second guide system and an end of the guide of the second guide system and without connection to the first guide system.

  • Patent number: 11136804
    Abstract: A guide system is hingedly connected to a second furniture part, and has a rail arrangement including a guide rail having a longitudinal direction for guiding the furniture parts, and a carrier movably mounted transversely to the longitudinal direction of the guide rail. The carrier can be moved into a transfer position in which the carrier adjoins the guide rail in the longitudinal direction such that a guiding device to be connected to one of the furniture parts and movable along the guide rail can be transferred to and from between the guide rail and the carrier. The guide system includes a column connected to the carrier, the column being arranged vertically, and can be moved together with the carrier transversely to the longitudinal direction of the guide rail. The first furniture part is connected to the guiding device, and the second furniture part is movably connected to the column.

  • Patent number: 11008791
    Abstract: 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.
