Abstract: A mounting plate for attachment of a furniture fitting such as a hinge arm of a furniture hinge to a wall of a piece of furniture, includes a bottom plate having an end face intended for securement to an attachment surface of the wall; and a top plate configured for placement over the bottom plate and having throughholes for passage of screw fasteners and an adjustment member which is provided to allow displacement of the top plate relative to the bottom plate. The top plate has a central portion, which is in line with the end face of the bottom plate on the attachment surface, and a marginal area which is slightly set back relative to the attachment surface.

Abstract: A hinge for use in a piece of furniture includes a casing adapted for attachment to a door of the piece of furniture and having a bottom provided with a bump, and a support member for attachment to a wall of the piece of furniture and including at least one bearing insert projecting into the casing for defining at least one joint connection between the support member and the casing. In the area of the joint connection, the bearing insert includes a peripheral cam which cooperates with a closing and locking member in form of a flat spring during opening motion of the hinge. The flat spring is located the area of the casing bottom, approximately parallel thereto, with the central area of the flat spring being supported by the bump of the casing bottom.

Abstract: A hinge for an article of furniture has a mount which is attachable to a wall of the article. A hinge unit including a hinge arm and, optionally, a support for the arm is releasably connectible to the mount. To this end, the hinge unit is provided with a shaft which is receivable in a complementary recess of the mount. The hinge unit is further provided with a resilient tongue, and the tongue has a groove which cooperates with a projection on the mount to lock the hinge unit to the mount by snap action. A lever projects at an angle from both sides of the hinge unit, and the free end of each lever carries an arm which extends towards the tongue. An inclined protuberance is provided on either side of the tongue and each lever arm abuts a respective protuberance. The arrangement is such that, when the levers are urged towards one another, the lever arms cooperate with the protuberances to disengage the groove in the tongue from the projection on the mount.

Abstract: A furniture hinge has a hinge arm connectible to the body of a piece of furniture and a lever connectible to a closure for the furniture. The closure is movable between a closed position and an open position. A damping device is disposed between the hinge arm and the lever and includes a housing having a bellows-like first part and a second part secured to the hinge arm. A piston rides in the housing and divides it into first and second chambers. The piston is provided with flow channels which allow hydraulic fluid in the housing to flow between the first and second chambers. The piston is mounted on a rod which extends through, and is coupled to, the first housing part and is articulately connected to the lever. A sealing member likewise mounted on the rod is arranged to seal the flow channels upon movement of the closure to its closed position.

Abstract: A hinge for connecting two relatively movable components of a piece of furniture has a housing which is mounted on one of the components and a carrier which is mounted on the other component. A link bar pivotally connects the housing to a hinge arm which is secured to a quick-mounting plate via a fastening screw. The fastening screw passes through a slotted hole of the hinge arm so that the latter can be moved longitudinally relative to the quick-mounting plate when the fastening screw is loosened. An adjusting screw is threaded into the hinge arm and allows the inclination of the hinge arm relative to the quick-mounting plate to be adjusted. One end of the quick-mounting plate is provided with a pivotable arresting member for rapidly locking the quick-mounting plate to, and rapidly releasing it from, the carrier. The arresting member has a lip which engages a projection of the carrier in the locked condition. A cover is provided for the hinge arm and is designed to overlie the fastening and adjusting screws.

Abstract: A furniture hinge for two housing parts has a housing mounted on one furniture part, a hinge arm mounted on the other furniture part, two pivotable hinge plates pivotally connecting the housing with the hinge arm, a spring which forms a locking device, a cylinder-and-piston unit having a piston pivotally mounted on the hinge arm and a brake cylinder slidably movable relative to the piston under the action of a cam lever mounted on one of the hinge plates and arranged to move the brake cylinder relative to the piston, wherein the sliding surface of the brake cylinder and/or the piston has a friction-increasing coating.

Abstract: A furniture hinge has a hollow housing connectable with one part of furniture, a hinge arm connectable with another part of furniture, at least two links extending between and pivotally connecting the hinge arm with the housing of which one link is pivotal relative to the housing, and at least two link pins each having a curved portion and a straight portion wherein the curved portions of the link pins support the one link for pivoting relative to the housing, and the straight portions of the link pins extend through the interior of the housing.
