  • Patent number: 5249856
    Abstract: A kitchen corner cupboard comprises a housing (12) having an upper cover plate (11) and a carousel (13) mounted therein. The carousel is provided with a vertical rotation shaft (15) which mounts at least one circular horizontal carrier plate (14a, 14b), in particular concentric to the rotation shaft (15) and a front element (18) made of two front panels (19, 20) arranged preferably at right angles or at an angle of 180.degree. to each other. The rotation shaft (15) lies at a substantial distance behind the intersection line of the imaginary extension of the front panels (41, 42) of adjacent cupboard housings. For the opening of the housing (12) the rotation shaft (15) is rotatably journalled about a vertical axis (17) at its lower end region on a diagonal translation body (25) which is diagonally translatably mounted on a base body (16) of the housing (12). In the closed rotary position of the front element (18), the rotation shaft is translatable diagonally, i.e. at an angle of preferably 45.degree.
