Patent number: 10085557Abstract: A device for adjusting a position of a furniture part on an item of furniture such that a closed position of the furniture part is predeterminable. The device includes an adjustment element for rotating a positioning default mechanism, and an abutment portion which interacts with an adjustment contour of the adjustment element. The adjustment contour extends as a spiral, by way of which a region of the adjustment contour and the abutment portion interact in such a manner that a stop of the device is slidable into a position, so that the closed position of the furniture part is predeterminable. The adjustment contour comprises a multi-edge portion with several surface portions which are aligned at an angle with respect to one another. The adjustment contour interacts with a counter portion on the abutment portion in such a manner that several predetermined rotational positions of the adjustment element are configurable.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2016Date of Patent: October 2, 2018Assignee: Grass GmbHInventor: Klaus Schneider
