Patent number: 11008791Abstract: A guide system includes a first guide rail and a second guide rail for guiding furniture parts. The second guide rail extends transversely relative to the first guide rail in a mounted position. A guiding device is to be connected to one of the furniture parts, and is movable relative to the first and second guide rails and can be transferred in a crossing region between the first and second guide rail. The guide system has a drive device with an entrainment member acted upon by a force storage member and configured to be releasably coupled to the guiding device. The entrainment member is locked in a parking position and can be unlocked by an entry of the guiding device into the crossing region. Thus, the entrainment member and the guiding device coupled therewith can be retracted along the second guide rail by a force of the force storage member.Type: GrantFiled: June 18, 2019Date of Patent: May 18, 2021Assignee: Julius Blum GmbHInventors: Matthias Rupp, Christian Hauer, Hermann Haemmerle, Ingo Gasser, Franz Kohlweiss
