Patent number: 5664855Abstract: The present invention is a fitting for the adjustable-height mounting of drawers on the runner rails of drawer slides, which support them on the bottom. On the runner rail of each drawer slide a slider is provided with a bearing surface facing the drawer bottom, and can be shifted parallel to the runner rails by a given amount. The slides are inclined, however, such that the bearing surface of the slider will be substantially flush with the drawer bottom or even below the drawer bottom when the drawer is supported on the runner rail in the properly installed position. But in the other end position the slider is shifted upward by the amount desired for the adjustment.Type: GrantFiled: September 17, 1996Date of Patent: September 9, 1997Assignee: MEPLA-Werke Lautenschlager GmbH & Co.

Patent number: 5588729Abstract: Hardware device for the vertically adjustable mounting of drawers extractably held in the carcase of furniture pieces by means of drawer slides. Each of the drawer slides has a guide rail for fastening in the carcase interior and a runner rail for attachment to the drawer on which races are provided for roller bodies or at least a roller journaled on one of the rails. In the vicinity of the carcase-front end of the drawer slide there is mounted a sector-shaped, thin adjuster for rotation about a vertical axis, the thickness of which measured in the vertical direction increases wedge-like in the direction of rotation from a radially disposed edge. The axis of rotation of the adjuster is so disposed with respect to the drawer slide that the portion that thickens wedge-like can be set between one of the rails of the drawer guide and a vertically opposite steady surface of the furniture piece.Type: GrantFiled: September 14, 1995Date of Patent: December 31, 1996Assignee: MEPLA-Werke Lautenschlager GmbH & Co.
