  • Patent number: 10750862
    Abstract: A guide rail of a guidance system for a push element is provided. The guide rail is formed as a hollow profile enclosed by wall sections of the guide rail. The wall sections comprise a horizontal wall section and two side wall sections. The horizontal wall sections extend parallel and perpendicular to a lengthwise extension of the guide rail, and the side wall section extends parallel and perpendicular to the lengthwise extension of the guide rail. The side wall sections are oriented at an angle to the horizontal wall sections. The horizontal wall sections and the two side wall sections, in a cross section perpendicular to a lengthwise extension of the guide rail, form at least for a portion the three side lines of a triangle, wherein the horizontal wall section defines a distal wall of the hollow profile.

  • Patent number: 10633890
    Abstract: A device for moving a movable furniture part, including a force accumulator for causing the movable furniture part to be put in the opening direction of the movable furniture part, and wherein the device has a locking assembly for locking a tensioned position of the force accumulator, in which the force accumulator is charged for the opening movement of the furniture part. The tensioned position of the force accumulator is unlockable by displacing an activator element that interacts with the locking assembly. The locking assembly includes a pivotably mounted locking member, and the activator element and the locking member are mutually adapted in such a manner that, for unlocking the tensioned position of the force accumulator, the activator element carries out a linear repositioning movement and comes to bear on the locking member in such a manner that the locking member is subjected to a pivoting movement, or vice versa.
