Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a fitting for movably supporting a pivoting element relative to a stationary structure, in particular a furniture carcass, the fitting being designed as a furniture fitting or a structural fitting and comprising:

[0002] a first fitting part for fastening to a stationary structure, wherein the first fitting part is designed to be inserted at least partially into a recess in the stationary structure,

[0003] a second accessory part for fastening to a pivoting element, in particular a movable furniture part,

[0004] At least one articulation axis, by means of which the first fitting part and the second fitting part are pivotably connected to one another.

[0005] Furthermore, the invention relates to an assembly having a stationary structure, in particular a furniture carcass, and having at least one accessory of the type to be described. Background Art

[0006] WO 2020 / 006589 A1 describes a furniture fitting having two hinged fitting parts for movably supporting a furniture door, wherein the first fitting part can be recessed into the side wall of the furniture carcass. In this way, the first fitting part of the furniture fitting can be integrated into the side wall in a very compact manner, with the arm of the fitting part being guided through a recess on the front side of the side wall. However, this furniture fitting can only be used in limited applications. Specifically, difficulties arise when the furniture carcass rests directly against a room wall or against an adjacent furniture carcass. In this case, the movable furniture part could collide with the room wall or a movable furniture part of an adjacent furniture carcass, hindering the movement of the movable furniture part or even rendering it impossible to move. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The object of the present invention is to provide a furniture fitting of the type mentioned in the introduction while avoiding the above-mentioned disadvantages.

[0008] According to the invention, this is achieved by the features of claim 1. Further embodiments of the invention are given in the dependent claims.

[0010] In other words, the first fitting part of the fitting is designed for integration into a stationary structure, in particular for accommodation within the wall thickness of a furniture panel, wherein at least one articulation axis for pivotably mounting the second fitting part is laterally spaced apart from the plane formed by the housing side by an arm projecting transversely from the lateral housing side of the housing.

[0011] In this way, in the mounted state of the fitting, at least one articulation axis is moved further towards the center of the furniture carcass, so that the furniture part connected to the second fitting part no longer collides with adjacent room walls or with adjacent movable furniture parts of the furniture carcass.
