  • Publication number: 20230258032
    Abstract: A furniture fitting for movably mounting a furniture flap, in particular a two-part furniture flap, on a furniture carcass includes a main part which is or can be connected to the furniture carcass; a mounting device which is or can be connected to the furniture flap; and at least one, in particular exactly one, actuating arm which is mounted or can be mounted on the main part at a first end so as to be pivotable about an axis of rotation. The actuating arm is or can be connected to the mounting device at a second end opposite the first end via at least one multi-joint mechanism, and the multi-joint mechanism has at least three, preferably at least four, particularly preferably exactly four, joints each having an axis of rotation.

  • Publication number: 20230243196
    Abstract: A furniture drive includes a main part and an actuator arm rotatably mounted on the main part about a first rotational axis. The actuator arm has multiple levers, and a securing interface arranged on an imaginary securing interface plane and via which the furniture front part can be secured to the actuator arm. The actuator arm can be moved continuously with respect to the first rotational axis between a first rotational position, which corresponds to a closed position of the furniture front part that can be secured to the actuator arm and which can be assigned a rotational angle ? of 0°, and a second rotational position, which corresponds to a maximum open position of the furniture front part that can be secured to the actuator arm and which can be assigned a rotational angle ? greater than 0° .

  • Patent number: 11536069
    Abstract: An ejecting device for a folding door is movably arranged on a furniture body. First and second door leaves of the folding door are interconnected in an articulated manner. The ejecting device has an ejecting element for folding open the folding door from a closed position, in which the door leaves are in a common closed plane, into an open position, in which the door leaves form an angle not equal to 180°. The ejecting device has a first fitting part for mounting the ejecting device on the first door leaf. The ejecting element can move the second door leaf from the closed position into the open position by a scissor mechanism having at least two scissor levers, and is mounted between the first and second door leaves by an articulated connection formed by an intermediate lever connected in an articulated manner to the first and/or second scissor lever.

  • Patent number: 10400493
    Abstract: An arrangement for spreading apart at least two door leaves which are part of an item of furniture and are hingedly interconnected, from a folded position into a spread-apart position, includes an energy accumulator and a spreading element impinged by the energy accumulator. The spreading element comprises a pivotally supported lever arm with a free end, and a control contour is provided for controlling movement of the spreading element.

  • Patent number: 10316565
    Abstract: An ejecting device can eject a cover element movably mounted on a piece of furniture, in particular a folding door or folding/sliding door, from a closed position into an open position. The cover element can be moved at least in a first direction perpendicular to the closing plane, on which the cover element is arranged in the closed position, and in a second direction parallel to the closing plane. The ejecting device includes an energy accumulator, which is to be charged manually by a user, and an ejecting element, on which the energy accumulator acts. The energy accumulator can be charged by moving the cover element substantially in a direction parallel to the closing plane, preferably during an ongoing cover element opening process following the ejection process, particularly preferably immediately following the ejection process.
