[0011] Figure 1a shows a perspective view of drawer 1, which has a drawer side wall 2, a front panel 3 to be connected to the drawer side wall 2, a drawer bottom 4, and a back wall 5.

[0012] The drawer side wall 2 has one connecting device 6 each for connecting the front panel 3 to the drawer side wall 2, preferably removably. The drawer side wall 2 has one hollow profile 8 each made of metal, and within this hollow profile, the connecting device 6 can be arranged at least in a predetermined region, preferably substantially completely.

[0013] The drawer side wall 2 has an end face 7 facing the front panel 3, and in the connected state between the drawer side wall 2 and the front panel 3, the connecting device 6 is in contact with at least a predetermined region on the back of the front panel 3 facing the drawer side wall 2.

[0014] Drawer 1 is supported via a drawer guide 9 so as to be movable relative to a furniture cabinet (not shown here). The drawer guide 9 includes a cabinet rail 10 to be attached to the furniture cabinet and at least one drawer rail 11 movable relative to the cabinet rail 10. Drawer 1 can be removably connected to the drawer rail 11 of the drawer guide 9 via a connecting device 18 (Figure 2a) not yet described.

[0015] Drawer 1 includes at least one back wall 5 arranged parallel to the front panel 3. The drawer side wall 2 may have at least one back wall holder 12, via which the back wall 5 can be connected to the drawer side wall 2, preferably removably.

[0016] Figure 1b shows an enlarged view of the region enclosed by a frame in Figure 1a.

[0017] Figure 1c shows a holding member 13 that can be attached to the back of the front panel 3, for example, via screws 14 and / or dowels.

[0018] Figure 1d shows the holding member 13 attached to the back of the front plate 3. The connecting device 6 can advantageously have a locking device 29 (Fig. 5), by means of which the holding member 13 can be removably locked to the drawer side wall 2.

[0019] Figure 2a is shown as a perspective view of the drawer side wall 2 seen from above. In this case, the drawer side wall 2 can be removably connected to the drawer rail 11 of the drawer guide 9 for drawing through the connecting device 18. In the illustrated embodiment, a first connecting element 18a arranged on the drawer side wall 2 is provided, and this first connecting element can be removably connected to the connecting lever 18b of the drawer rail 11. In the shown Figure 2a, the unconnected state between the connecting element 18a and the connecting lever 18b is shown.

[0020] The connecting device 18 with the first connecting element 18a and the connecting device 6 for connecting the front plate 3 to the drawer side wall 2, preferably removably, form one common structural unit.

[0021] The connecting lever 18b for removably connecting to the first connecting element 18a is supported on the drawer rail 11 so as to be bendable or swivellable about an axis extending in the vertical direction in the assembled position.

[0022] The drawer guide 9 for drawing can have a height adjustment device 17 with a movable operating element 17a, and the height position of the drawer 1 can be adjusted relative to the drawer rail 11 by operating the operating element 17a.

[0023] In the region behind the extraction rail 11, a hook 15 is provided. This hook is arranged at a predetermined interval with respect to the upper surface of the extraction rail 11 and extends in the longitudinal direction L of the extraction side wall 2. In the assembled state of the extraction side wall 2, the hook 15 is accommodated in the hole 16 of the back wall holder 12. The hook 15 defines the position behind the extractor 1 in the extraction rail 11. Furthermore, the region behind the extractor 1 can be stabilized in a direction extending transversely with respect to the longitudinal direction L of the extraction side wall 2 by the hook 15 engaged in the hole 16.

[0024] Figure 2b shows an enlarged view of the region surrounded by the frame in Figure 2a. According to one embodiment, it may be specified that the extraction side wall 2 is formed substantially in a cuboid shape and / or substantially square when viewed in a transverse plane perpendicular to the longitudinal direction L of the extraction side wall 2.

[0025] The connecting device 6 for removably connecting to the front plate 3 includes a connecting device 18. By this connecting device, the extraction side wall 2 can be removably connected to the extraction rail 11 of the extraction guide 9 for extraction.

[0026] In the illustrated embodiment, the connecting device 18 has at least one first connecting element 18a arranged on the extraction side wall 2, and this first connecting element can be removably connected to the connecting lever 18b.

[0027] The first connecting element 18a has, in the illustrated figure, a contact surface 19, a first stopper surface 20a extending in the longitudinal direction L, and / or a second stopper surface 20b extending transversely with respect to the longitudinal direction L of the extraction side wall 2.

[0028] In the illustrated configuration, the contact surface 19 is formed so as to contact the drawer side wall 2, the first stopper surface 20a is formed so as to contact the vertical web 23 of the drawer rail 11, and the second stopper surface 20b is formed so as to contact the connecting lever 18b. The drawer 1 can occupy various depth positions in a locked state with the drawer rail 11 by a plurality of locking surfaces 22 shifted in the longitudinal direction L of the drawer side wall 2, whereby the front surface of the front panel 3 can be aligned substantially in one common plane with the adjacent front panels.

[0029] Of course, kinematically conversely, the connecting lever 18b may be arranged on the connecting device 6 of the drawer side wall 2 and the first connecting element 18a may be arranged on the drawer rail 11.

[0030] Furthermore, the first connecting element 18a has at least one inclined surface 20c, and by this inclined surface, the connecting lever 18b can be displaced in a direction transverse to the longitudinal direction L of the drawer side wall 2 against the spring force when connecting the drawer side wall 2 to the drawer rail 11. After displacement, the connecting lever 18b can be automatically locked with the first connecting element 18a by the generated spring force.

[0031] According to an embodiment, it may be specified that the drawer side wall 2 has a groove 24 for accommodating an edge of the drawer bottom surface 4 extending in the longitudinal direction L of the drawer side wall 2. The groove 24 may have an upper holding web 24a and a lower holding web 24b spaced apart from the upper holding web and extending substantially parallel thereto, and an edge of the drawer bottom surface 4 can be arranged between these holding webs.

[0032] Preferably, at least one side surface of the drawer side wall 2 is formed from an integral sheet metal piece, and the groove 24 may be specified to be formed by bending in the sheet metal piece together with both holding webs 24a, 24b.

[0033] Figure 3a shows the connection of the drawer side wall 2 at another position of the drawer side wall 2 relative to the drawer rail 11.

[0034] By covering and fitting the drawing side wall 2 onto the drawing rail 11 of the drawing guide 9 for drawing, the connecting lever 18b is rotated in a plane parallel to the running plane of the drawing rail 11 by the cooperation of both inclined surfaces 20c and 21, and at this time, an accumulator for applying a force to the connecting lever 18b can be charged.

[0035] The front end portion of the drawing rail 11 preferably has a web 11a that descends forward, and it can be seen that this web is slidably guided within the guide 25 of the connecting lever 18b. By the web 11a engaging within the guide 25, the connecting lever 18b can be accurately guided in the lateral direction.

[0036] Figure 3b shows the locked position between the drawing side wall 2 and the drawing rail 11. As the drawing side wall 2 continuously moves toward the drawing rail 11, the connecting lever 18b can be removably connected to the first connecting element 18a by the force of the relaxed accumulator. In the connected position, the first stopper surface 20a of the first connecting element 18a contacts the vertical web 23 of the drawing rail 11, thereby stabilizing the drawing side wall 2 in a direction extending laterally with respect to the longitudinal direction L.

[0037] The connecting lever 18b can have, for example, a gripping portion 26 formed for manual operation, and by the gripping portion, the connection between the drawing side wall 2 and the drawing rail 11 can be released. By manually operating the gripping portion 26 against the spring force of the connecting lever 18b, the connection between the drawing side wall 2 and the drawing rail 11 can be released again.

[0038] Figure 4a shows the connection position between the connecting lever 18b and the first connecting element 18a in a perspective view. In the illustrated embodiment, the first connecting element 18a is arranged on the base body 6a of the connecting device 6, and this base body 6a can be arranged in the front region of the drawing side wall 2.

[0039] The connecting lever 18b having the locking surface 22 is supported by the bending joint 27, which forms a spring accumulator for applying a force to the connecting lever 18b in this embodiment.

[0040] The connecting lever 18b includes a guide 25 for linearly guiding the web 11a of the drawer rail 11 that extends transversely to the longitudinal direction L. The connecting lever 18b can be connected to the drawer rail 11 of the drawer guide 9 for drawing via at least one mounting section 28.

[0041] Figure 4b shows a cross-section of the connecting lever 18b arranged on the drawer rail 11. The downwardly sloping web 11a of the drawer rail 11 can be seen, and in this case, the connecting lever 18b is slidably guided in a direction extending transversely to the longitudinal direction L via the web 11a engaged in the guide 25.

[0042] Figure 5 shows an exploded view of a possible embodiment of the connecting device 6. The connecting device 6 preferably has a base 6a made of plastic, which can be arranged inside the hollow profile 8 of the drawer side wall 2. It can be seen that the first connecting element 18a of the connecting device 18 is arranged on or in the base 6a of the connecting device 6.

[0043] The connecting device 6 has a groove 24 extending in the longitudinal direction L of the drawer side wall 2, and the edge of the drawer bottom 4 can be arranged in this groove.

[0044] According to a preferred embodiment, the connecting device 6 - has at least one locking device 29 that can be releasably locked to at least one holding member 13 to be attached to the front plate 3. Preferably, this locking device 29 preferably has at least one locking element 29a that is preferably spring-loaded and / or slidably supported, and / or - having at least one adjusting device 31 for adjusting the position of the front plate 3 relative to the drawer side wall 2 in at least one direction, preferably transversely to the longitudinal direction L of the drawer side wall 2, preferably this at least one adjusting device 31 having at least one eccentric 32, and / or - being substantially completely received inside the drawer side wall 2 when assembled to the drawer side wall 2, except for the connecting device 18, and / or - having a base body 6a, preferably in this case the base body 6a being formed from plastic and / or being substantially L-shaped may be specified to be the case.

[0045] In the illustrated embodiment, the locking device 29 has a locking element 29a biased by a spring element 29b, this locking element having a notch 30 formed for receiving the pin 13a of the holding member 13. When introducing the pin 13a into the notch 30, the locking element 29a is moved upwards by the inclined surface 33 against the force of the spring element 29b, and then the pin 13a can be locked within the notch 30.

[0046] The adjusting device 31 may have a rotatable adjusting element 31a with at least one eccentric 32 that can be arranged between both lateral webs of the holding member 13 extending parallel to each other. By rotation of the adjusting element 31a, the holding member 13 (and thus the front plate 3) is adjustable relative to the base body 6a in the lateral direction.

[0047] Fig. 6a shows a perspective view from below of the drawer side wall 2 provided with the hollow profile 8. In the figure shown, the holding member 13 to be attached to the front plate 3 is locked to the locking device 29 of the connecting device 6.

[0048] Figure 6b shows an enlarged view of the area enclosed by the frame in Figure 6a, and this figure shows in detail the front end region of the drawer side wall 2. The first connecting element 18a of the connecting device 18 is provided for a detachable connection with the drawer rail 11 of the drawer guide 9 for drawing.

[0049] The locking element 29a of the locking device 29 protrudes downward from the drawer side wall 2, and the lock between the holding member 13 and the locking element 29a can be released by applying pressure to the locking element 29a.

[0050] The adjusting element 31a of the adjusting device 31 has a receiving portion for a tool, and the position of the holding member 13 can be adjusted by rotating the adjusting element 31a in a direction extending transversely with respect to the longitudinal direction L of the drawer side wall 2.

[0051] Figures 7a to 7c show the releasable lock between the holding member 13 to be attached to the front plate 3 and the connecting device 6 in temporally consecutive steps.

[0052] Figure 7a shows the holding member 13 provided with the pin 13a, and this pin can be releasably locked to the locking element 29a of the locking device 29 when the holding member 13 is inserted.

[0053] Figure 7b shows that when the pin 13a collides with the inclined surface 33 of the locking element 29a, the locking element 29a is moved against the force of the spring element 29b. The spring element 29b can be formed as a compression spring. That is, thereby, the locking element 29a is moved upward against the force of the spring element 29b.

[0054] Figure 7c shows that the pin 13a of the holding member 13 is locked by the force of the relaxed spring element 29b, and at this time, the pin 13a of the holding member 13 is present inside the notch 30 of the locking element 29a in the locked state.

[0055] Figure 8a shows another embodiment with a drawer 1 made of wood, which can be detachably connected to the drawer rail 11 of the drawer guide 9 via a connecting device 18. The drawer 1 has a drawer side wall 2, a back wall 5, and a drawer bottom surface 4.

[0056] In this embodiment, the drawer side wall 2 may be formed of hard wood. In order for the drawer 1 to be detachably connectable to the drawer rail 11 of the drawer guide 9, the drawer 1 is provided with a second connecting element 18c that can preferably be attached to the vertical web 23b (Figure 8b) of the drawer 1.

[0057] Figure 8b shows an enlarged view of the area enclosed by the circle in Figure 8a. According to a possible embodiment, the second connecting element 18c - can be attached to the front end of the drawer 1 and / or - has at least one attachment point 39 to which the second connecting element 18c can be attached to the drawer 1 and / or - has a contact surface 19, preferably this contact surface 19 is capable of contacting the drawer 1 and / or - has a stopper surface 20a extending in the longitudinal direction L of the drawer side wall 2, preferably this stopper surface 20a is capable of abutting against the vertical web 23 of the drawer rail 11 of the drawer guide 9 and / or - has a stopper surface 20b extending transversely to the longitudinal direction L of the drawer side wall 2, preferably this stopper surface 20b is releasably connectable to the connecting lever 18b and / or - has at least one inclined surface 20c, by which the connecting lever 18b can be displaced in a direction transverse to the longitudinal direction L of the drawer side wall 2 against the spring force when connecting to the second connecting element 18c may be specified.

[0058] Figure 8c shows the second connecting element 18c assembled to the drawer 1, which is shown in dashed lines for clarity of the drawing.

[0059] Figure 8d shows another perspective view of the second connecting element 18c assembled to the drawer 1, seen from below, i.e., in the direction of looking at the lower face of the bottom surface 4 of the drawer.

[0060] Figure 9a shows the embodiment according to FIGS. 8a to 8d together with the second connecting element 18c in a non-connected position. For reasons of clarity, the drawer 1 to which the second connecting element 18c is attached is not shown.

[0061] When the drawer 1 is fitted over the drawer rail 11 of the drawer guide 9 for assembly, the inclined surface 21 of the connecting lever 18b strikes the inclined surface 20c of the second connecting element 18c. Thereby, the connecting lever 18b is pivoted in a direction transverse to the longitudinal direction L against its spring action.

[0062] Figure 9b shows the connected position between the drawer 1 and the drawer rail 11 of the drawer guide 9, and the stop surface 20b of the second connecting element 18c is locked to the connecting lever 18b.
