Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The invention relates to a translation-rotation fitting according to the preamble of claim 1 and to a piece of furniture or household appliance. [Background technology]

[0002] A typical translation-rotation fitting is known, for example, from DE 10 2019 109 866 A1 and is used in particular for simultaneous translational and rotational movement of a first body relative to the body, for example in the form of a shelf housed in a furniture body.

[0003] The translation-rotation fitting described here has proven itself in practice: the mating plates of the translation-rotation fitting must be attached very precisely to the first or second body to ensure collision-free movement of the second body relative to the first body within the available installation space, and also to ensure a precise joint pattern when two or more such bodies are placed on the translation-rotation fitting. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a translation-rotation fitting which can be subsequently aligned in a horizontal plane in a simple manner. [Means for solving the problem]

[0005] This object is solved by a translation-rotation fitting having the features of claim 1.

[0006] A translation-rotation fitting according to the present invention for simultaneous translational-rotational movement of a first body, at least partially positively guided relative to a second body in one of two possible opposite rotational directions and in a predetermined translational direction, comprises a first mating plate coupled to the first body and a second mating plate coupled to the second body, capable of simultaneous translational and rotational movement relative to the first mating plate. At least one displaceably fixed adjustment device is provided on the first mating plate for independently aligning the first mating plate with respect to the first body by a limited adjustment dimension in two mutually perpendicular adjustment directions in the plane of the translational-rotational movement of the first body relative to the second body.

[0007] Such a displaceably fixed adjusting device allows alignment in the horizontal plane in a simple manner, even after installation of the translation-rotation fitting between the first body and the second body. The adjustment device can be configured in different ways.

[0008] Thus, according to one advantageous embodiment, the adjustment device comprises a sliding element held on the first body so as to be displaceable in a first adjustment direction and held on the first fitting plate so as to be displaceable in a second adjustment direction, and further comprises at least two adjustment units for adjusting the first fitting plate in the first adjustment direction and in the second adjustment direction.

[0009] According to a preferred embodiment, the sliding element is configured as a base plate having a plurality of first oblong holes aligned in the first adjustment direction and a plurality of second oblong holes aligned in the second adjustment direction, the first holding elements fastened to the first body being guided through the first oblong holes and the second holding elements fastened to the first fitting plate being guided through the second oblong holes, which are in particular configured as bolts or screws.

[0010] When such a sliding element is configured as a base plate, the first mating plate can be easily adjusted together with the base plate relative to the first body in a first adjustment direction, and can be adjusted relative to the base plate itself in a second adjustment direction.

[0011] According to a further preferred development, the base plate has a first collar operably connected to the first adjustment unit and having a threaded hole aligned perpendicular to the first actuation direction, and a second collar operably connected to the second adjustment unit and having a threaded hole aligned perpendicular to the second actuation direction, and a first adjustment screw held in a fixed position on the first body is received in the threaded hole of the first collar, and a second adjustment screw is received in the threaded hole of the second collar.

[0012] In order to fix the translation-rotation fitting vertically relative to the first body, a further preferred embodiment of the adjustment device comprises a first holder and a second holder, which are arranged between the base plate and the first fitting plate and serve for displaceable mounting of the base plate on the first body, the first holder having a stop for fixed but rotatable mounting of the first adjustment screw.

[0013] According to an alternative embodiment, the sliding element is configured as a guide cross having a first web aligned in a first actuation direction and a second web aligned in a second actuation direction, the first web being slidably received in a groove of a base plate attached to the first body in the first positioning direction, and the second web being guided in a groove of a sliding plate attached to the first mating plate.

[0014] According to a preferred further development, the two actuators are fixed to the base plate and to the slide plate. According to another further development, the adjustment unit has two adjustment elements connected to each other by respective adjustment screws, the distance between the two adjustment elements being adjustable by turning the adjustment screws.

[0015] The groove of the slide plate, facing the first mating plate, is protected, particularly from dust and dirt, by a cover plate attached to the base plate.

[0016] According to a further alternative embodiment, the adjustment device has two first L-shaped sliding elements held on the first body so as to be displaceable in a first adjustment direction and two second L-shaped sliding elements held on the first body so as to be displaceable in a second adjustment direction, the first sliding elements being aligned perpendicular to the second sliding elements.

[0017] Furthermore, the adjustment device configured in this manner makes it possible to easily align the first fitting plate with respect to the first body. According to an advantageous further development of this configuration variant, the sliding element is slidably mounted on a holding element which is attached to the first body by means of an adjusting screw.

[0018] The adjusting screw is configured, for example, as an eccentric screw which projects into an elongated hole in the leg of the sliding element which projects into the respective holding element. In all of the above-described constructional variations of the translation-rotation fitting, the first and second mating plates of the translation-rotation fitting have respective running grooves facing the bearing surfaces, in which the rolling elements are guided for simultaneous translation-rotation movement.

[0019] According to a further alternative embodiment, the sliding element is configured as a guide cross having a first web aligned in the first operating direction and a second web aligned in the second operating direction, the first web being received in a groove in a base plate attached to the first body and displaceable in the first operating direction, and the second web being guided in a groove in a first mating plate.

[0020] This variation of the configuration is particularly suitable for translation-rotation fittings in which guide elements are arranged on a first mating plate for simultaneous translation-rotation movement, and the guide elements can move in curved guide tracks arranged on or in a second plate. Variations of the above described configurations can also be used for translation-rotation fittings with guide elements and curved guide tracks.

[0021] According to a preferred further development of this configuration variant of the translation-rotation fitting, the adjustment unit has two adjustment bodies connected to each other by respective adjustment screws, the distance between the adjustment bodies can be adjusted by turning the adjustment screws, the first adjustment body is attached to the first fitting plate and the second adjustment body is attached to the base plate, and the adjustment screws are aligned perpendicular to each other.

[0022] According to a further preferred further development, the base plate and the first mating plate each have a guide slot extending in one of the set directions for receiving a rivet, the rivet fastening the base plate and the first mating plate to one another in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the base plate, the overlapping guide slots being aligned in each case in a different set direction.

[0023] The furniture or household appliance according to the invention comprises a first body, a second body movable relative to the first body, and a translation-rotation fitting which allows the second body to move simultaneously in a predetermined translational direction and in one of two possible opposite rotational directions relative to the first body, the translation-rotation fitting being configured as described above.

[0025] In the following description of the figures, terms such as top, bottom, left, right, front, rear, etc. refer exclusively to exemplary representations and positions of selected translation-rotation fittings, base plates, holders, slide plates, guide crosses, etc. in the respective figures. These terms should not be understood in a limiting manner, i.e., their references may vary with different working positions or mirror symmetric configurations, etc.

[0026] In Figures 1 and 7, the number 1 designates as a whole a piece of furniture or household appliance 1, which here consists of a first body 2, a second body 3 and a translation-rotation fitting 100 arranged between the first and second bodies. As shown in Figures 1 and 7, the first body 2 can be part of a support plate or the base of a cupboard or shelving unit. Corresponding furniture is shown, for example, in German Patent Publication 10 2019 109 866.

[0027] The second body 3 can therefore also be realized as a panel. However, it is also conceivable here that the second body 3 is configured as a shelving piece of furniture with several shelves or storage compartments one above the other perpendicularly.

[0028] As is also exemplarily described in the initially mentioned German Patent Publication 10 2019 109 866, it is important that the second body 3 can move relative to the first body 2 in a simultaneous translational-rotational movement that is partially constrained relative to the first body 2, i.e. in one of two possible opposite rotational directions R1, R2 and in a given translational direction A.

[0029] 1-16b show several embodiments of translation-rotation fittings 100, 200, 300, 400. All of these translation-rotation fittings 100, 200, 300, 400 generally include a first mating plate 110, 210, 310, 410 coupled to a first body 2 and a second mating plate 120, 220, 420 coupled to a second body 3. An adjustment device is displaceably fixed to the first mating plate (110, 210, 310, 410) and serves to independently align the first mating plate (110, 210, 310, 410) with respect to the first body (2) by limited adjustment dimensions in two mutually perpendicular adjustment directions x and y in the plane of the first body (2), typically in a horizontal plane.

[0030] A first embodiment of a translation-rotation fitting 100 is shown in Figures 1-6d. In this embodiment, the two mating plates 110, 120 have, on their facing bearing surfaces, running grooves 112, 122, respectively, in which rolling elements 131 are guided, for simultaneous translational-rotational movement. In a variant of the embodiment shown here, the rolling elements 131 are configured as balls, which are held in a rolling element cage 130 to prevent loss. It is also conceivable that the rolling elements are configured as ball rollers or the like, which have a cylindrical housing in which balls are mounted.

[0031] In addition to the configuration of the running grooves 112, 122, the predetermined translation direction A is guided by a guide pin 113 which is held fixed but rotatable within the second mating plate 120 and is linearly movable on a carriage 114 guided in a longitudinal groove of the first mating plate 110.

[0032] This adjustment device serves to accurately align the first mating plate 110 with respect to the first main body 2, and includes a slide element and at least two adjustment units 4, 5, where the slide element is held on the first main body 2 so as to be displaceable in a first adjustment direction x and is held on the first mating plate 110 so as to be displaceable in a second adjustment direction y, and the two adjustment units 4, 5 adjust the first mating plate 110 in the first adjustment direction x and the second adjustment direction y.

[0033] 1 to 6d, the sliding element is configured as a base plate 140. The base plate 140 has a plurality of first slots 141 aligned in a first positioning direction x and a plurality of second slots 145 aligned in a second positioning direction y, as can be seen clearly, for example, in the view of the translation-rotation fitting 100 from below with the first body 2 hidden, as shown in FIG.

[0034] The first retaining element 101 attached to the first body 2 is guided through the first oblong hole 141. The second retaining element 102 attached to the first fitting plate 110 is guided through the second oblong hole 145. The retaining elements 101 and 102 are configured in particular as bolts or screws, as shown by way of example in FIG. 2. The oblong hole 145 is preferably provided in the region of the bulge 144 of the base plate 140 and can accommodate the head 103 of the retaining element 102 above the upper side of the first body 2 facing the base plate 140.

[0035] In the embodiment shown here, the adjustment units 4, 5 are capable of aligning or adjusting the first mating plate 110 relative to the first body 2 and include a first collar 142 and a second collar 143, which are bent upward from the plane of the base plate 140 in the z-direction perpendicular to the plane of the base plate 140, and each include a first adjustment screw 104 and a second adjustment screw 105.

[0036] A first collar 142 aligned perpendicular to the first adjustment direction x and a second collar 143 aligned perpendicular to the second adjustment direction y have threaded holes that engage with the threads of the first adjustment screw 104 or the second adjustment screw 105, respectively.

[0037] The head or collar of the first adjusting screw 104 is fixed but rotatably fixed on the first body 2. This fixing is effected here via a first holder 150 of the adjusting device, which is located between the base plate 140 and the first fitting plate 110 and serves to displaceably hold the base plate 140 on the first body 2. As can be seen in Figure 3, a stopper 151 with a through hole 152 accessible from a lateral edge is arranged in this holder 150.

[0038] 2 and 3, a first holder 150 and a second holder 160 are fixed to the first body 2 by a first retaining element 101. By turning a first adjusting screw 104, the base plate 140 can be adjusted in the x-direction relative to the first holder 150, and thus relative to the first body 2, by an adjustment dimension that is essentially limited by the x-direction extent of the thread of the first adjusting screw 104.

[0039] The second adjusting screw 105 is held by its head or collar piece on a collar 111 of the first mating plate 110, which extends fixedly but rotatably vertically, i.e., in the z-direction. Thus, by turning the second adjusting screw 105, this collar 111 is either drawn toward the second collar 143 of the base plate 140 or moved away from the second collar 143 in the y-direction.

[0040] Figures 5a-5c and 6a-6d show different positional relationships of the first mating plate 110 to the first body 2. In Figures 5a-5c, the relative positions are shown from the side of the first body 2 and in a top view of the base plate corresponding to Figure 4. Thus, Figure 5a shows a position displaced in the y direction from the neutral position, but with a neutral orientation in the x direction.

[0041] FIG. 5b shows the neutral y position and maximum displacement in the x direction of the first mating plate 110. FIG. FIG. 5c shows the maximum displacement of the first mating plate 110 in both the x and y directions. In the side views of Figures 6a to 6d, Figure 6a shows a neutral position where the first body 2 and the second body 3 are positioned exactly above each other, while Figures 6b to 6d show different displaced positions.

[0042] In the second embodiment of a translation-rotation fitting 200 according to the present invention shown in Figures 7 to 9, the actual translation-rotation fitting, including the first and second mating plates 210 and 220 and the rolling elements disposed therebetween, is identical to the embodiment described with reference to Figures 1 to 6.

[0043] The adjusting device also comprises here a sliding element, in this case configured as a guide cross 240 . The guide cross 240 has a first web 241 aligned in a first positioning direction x and a second web 242 aligned in a second positioning direction y. The two webs 241, 242 are preferably bonded or welded together or manufactured in one piece.

[0044] The first web 241 is received in a groove 251 of a base plate 250 attached to the first body 2 and is displaceable in the first adjustment direction x. The second web 242 is guided in a groove 261 of a slide plate 260 attached to the first fitting plate 210.

[0045] The adjusting units 4, 5 preferably used in this embodiment here consist of two adjusting bodies 270, 271 connected to each other by adjusting screws 272, and the distance between the two adjusting bodies can be adjusted by turning the adjusting screws 272. As shown in Figures 7 and 8, here, the first adjusting body 270 of the two adjusting units 4, 5 is fixed to the base plate 250, and the second adjusting body 271 is fixed to the slide plate 260.

[0046] Preferably, the groove 261 of the guide cross 240 and the second web 242 received in the groove 261 are covered against the first mating plate 210 by a cover plate 252, which is fixed to the base plate 250 via two fixing arms. 9a and 9b, the first adjustment body 270 has two grooves 273, 274 that serve to stationarily but rotatably secure the adjustment screw 272. In this manner, by turning the adjustment screw 272, the second adjustment body 271 is attracted to or moved away from the first adjustment body 270.

[0047] In a variation of the embodiment of the translation-rotation fitting 300 shown in Figures 10 to 13, the adjustment device has two first L-shaped slide elements 350 held on the first body 2 so as to be displaceable in a first adjustment direction x, and two second L-shaped slide elements 360 held on the first body 2 so as to be displaceable in a second adjustment direction y, the first slide elements 350 being aligned perpendicular to the second slide elements 360.

[0048] Again, the actual translation-rotation fitting, including the first mating plate 310 and the second mating plate (not shown here), is configured similarly to the modified embodiment described in Figures 1-6. As shown in FIG. 11, guide bushes 311, 312 are formed or attached only on the underside of the first mating plate 310 facing the first body 2, and second legs 352, 362 of L-shaped slide elements 350, 360 are received in each of them, allowing them to be displaced in the longitudinal direction of the guide bushes 311, 312, respectively.

[0049] Each first leg 351, 361 is preferably aligned perpendicular to the respective second leg 352, 362 of each sliding element 350, 360. The first legs 351, 361 of the sliding elements 350, 360 are housed in a holding element 340 attached to the first body 2. The holding element 340 also has guide bushes for guiding the first legs 351, 361, as shown by way of example in Figures 13a and 13b.

[0050] To align the first mating plate 310 with respect to the first body 2 , the slide elements 350 , 360 are slidably received within a retaining element 340 that is attached to the first body 2 by an adjustment screw 370 .

[0051] In the variant shown in Figures 13a and 13b, the adjusting screw 73 is configured as an eccentric screw that protrudes into an elongated hole in the leg 351, 361 of the sliding element 350, 360 that protrudes into the retaining element 340, so that a linear displacement movement in the direction of the first leg 351 of the sliding element 350, 360 is brought about by turning the eccentric screw. Due to the vertical alignment of the second legs 352, 362 received in the sleeves 311, 312 aligned on the underside of the first mating plate 310 facing the first body 2, the first mating plate 310 is thus displaced in the longitudinal extension direction of the first legs 351, 361 of the slide elements 350, 360, respectively.

[0052] 12a to 12e show different displacement positions of the first fitting plate 310 relative to a holding element 340 fixed in a stationary position on the first body 2. FIG. In this embodiment, instead of the adjusting screws 370 being configured as eccentric screws, the adjusting screws 370 shown in Figures 12a and 12b extend through the second legs 352, 362 of the sliding elements 350, 360, respectively, which second legs 352, 362 are now provided with an internal thread, so that a translational movement of the sliding elements 350, 360 in the longitudinal extension direction of the second legs 352, 362 is brought about by turning the adjusting screws 370. The adjusting screws 370 are held fixedly but rotatably in the first mating plate 310.

[0053] In the alternative embodiment of Figures 12c, 12d and 12e, the adjustment screw 370 engages with a threaded hole in the collar 314 of the first mating plate 310 and is fixed in a stationary but rotatable manner on the retaining element 340 by its head or collar piece, in a manner similar to the embodiment shown with reference to Figures 1 to 6.

[0054] Figure 12c shows the center or neutral position of the adjustment device, while Figures 12d and 12e show the respective maximum adjustment positions. 11a to 11c also show different adjustment positions of the first fitting plate 310 relative to a holding element 340 fixedly attached to the first body 2. FIG.

[0055] In an alternative embodiment, again shown in Figures 14 to 16b, a guide element 430 is disposed on the first mating plate 410 for simultaneous translational-rotational movement, the guide element 43 being movable within a curved guide track 421 disposed on or within the second mating plate 420. The translational movement is thereby guided by an extension guide rotatably fixed to the second fitting plate 420, which preferably comprises two guide rails 401 and a running rail 402 displaceably guided in the guide rails 401 in the translational direction A, as shown in Figure 15. A rotational bearing 403 is received in a corresponding receiving portion 422 of the second fitting plate 420 and is coupled to the running rail 402 of the extension guide via a coupling piece 404.

[0056] As further shown in Figures 14, 15, 16a and 16b, in this embodiment of the translation-rotation fitting 400, the sliding element is configured as a guide cross 440 having a first web 441 aligned in the first adjustment direction x and a second web 442 aligned in the second adjustment direction y, similar to the embodiment described with reference to Figures 7 to 9.

[0057] The first web 441 is accommodated in a groove 451 of a base plate 450 attached to the first body 2 and is displaceable in the first adjustment direction x. The second web 442 is guided in a groove 411 of the first fitting plate 410. In this modification of the embodiment, the adjustment units 4 and 5 used in the modification of the embodiment described in Figures 7 to 9 are preferably used, and these adjustment units have two adjustment bodies 470 and 471 connected to each other by an adjustment screw 472, and the distance between the adjustment bodies 470 and 471 can be adjusted by turning the adjustment screw 472.

[0058] Here, the first adjustment body 470 is attached to the base plate 450, while each second adjustment body 471 is attached to the fitting plate 410. Also, the alignment of the adjustment units 4, 5 here again refers to the alignment of the front-to-rear axes of the adjustment screws 472, and the adjustment screws of the first adjustment unit 4 are aligned perpendicular to the adjustment screws 472 of the second adjustment unit 5.

[0059] 14 and 15, the base plate 450 and the first mating plate 410 each have a guide slot 412, 452 that receives a rivet 460 that secures the base plate 450 and the first mating plate 410 to one another in a direction z that is perpendicular to the plane of the base plate 450. The guide slots 412, 452 each extend in one of the positioning directions x, y, and the overlapping guide slots 412, 452 through which the common rivet 460 passes are aligned in the other of the positioning directions x, y.
