Description

[0001] Furniture

[0002] The invention relates to a piece of furniture according to the preamble of claim 1.

[0003] Furniture, especially kitchen furniture or home furniture such as base cabinets or wall cabinets, usually has a front-opening furniture body to which movable furniture parts are mounted, guided by fittings.

[0004] Especially in wall cabinets, flaps are frequently used as movable components to close the cabinet body. These flaps are supported and guided by at least one, and usually two, laterally positioned hinges. The hinges allow the flap to open upwards (pivot upwards), pivoting, for example, around an imaginary horizontal pivot axis located in the upper part of the cabinet body. Other upward opening movements of a flap are also conceivable.

[0005] The lever mechanism of the flap fitting is usually designed as a multi-jointed lever mechanism, connecting a housing of the flap fitting to a mounting element to which the flap is attached. However, it is also conceivable that the lever mechanism forms a single joint.

[0006] To advantageously perform a combined pivoting and sliding movement, 7-joint lever mechanisms have become established, whose links are coupled to each other and to the housing or mounting element at seven joint axes. One link of the lever mechanism transmits the torque exerted by the flap in an open position to the lever mechanism. A force storage device is usually integrated into the flap fitting to counteract the torque and hold the flap in the open position. Furthermore, damping is often incorporated into the flap fitting in the closing and / or opening direction.

[0007] From publication EP 0 952 290 A2, a flap fitting is known whose housing has the form of a tall but narrow cassette, which is screwed onto an inside side panel of a cabinet below the top panel. Two such fittings are used on each side panel to guide the cabinet flap. Even though the housing is cassette-shaped and only narrow, the flap fitting prevents flexible partitioning of the cabinet's interior, for example, because no intermediate shelves or similar elements for interior organization can be used in the area of ​​the flap fitting. Furthermore, the flap fitting is fully visible when the flap is open, which can be perceived as disruptive.

[0008] Document WO 2022 / 113 021 A1 describes a flap fitting whose housing is also a flat cassette, but which, unlike the arrangement described in document EP 0 952 290 A2, can be mounted flat on the top panel of the furniture carcass. For this purpose, the top panel of the furniture carcass is preferably recessed relative to its side walls by at least the height of the cassette. The flap supported by the flap fitting is guided by a lever mechanism, which, in the described flap fitting, protrudes partially downwards from the cassette-shaped housing. To prevent the protruding lever mechanism from colliding with the top panel, recesses are required in the top panel through which the lever mechanism extends into the interior of the carcass. This detracts from the appearance and also results in a loss of storage space within the furniture carcass.

[0009] The object of the present invention is to provide a piece of furniture with a flap fitting that can be easily mounted on the furniture body and easily detached from it.

[0010] The problem is solved by a piece of furniture with the features of claim 1.

[0011] The furniture according to the invention comprises a furniture body, a flap associated with the furniture body and which, in a closed position, at least partially covers a front side of the furniture body, and at least one flap fitting with which the flap is attached to the furniture body.

[0012] The flap fitting comprises a fitting housing attached to the furniture body and a mounting element attached to the flap. The fitting housing and the mounting element are pivotally connected to each other around a horizontal axis and guided for movement relative to one another.

[0013] The furniture according to the invention further comprises at least one mounting body attached to the furniture body, on which the fitting housing for attaching the flap fitting to the furniture body can be locked in a functional position by means of a locking unit, and a release element arranged on the mounting body or the fitting housing near the front of the furniture body, by actuating which the locking of the fitting housing can be released from the mounting body.

[0014] With such a mounting body and such a locking unit, it is easy to subsequently mount and remove such a flap from the furniture body.

[0015] Releasing the flap can be done easily with or without tools, depending on the arrangement of the mounting body and the locking unit on the furniture carcass, even without having to open the flap.

[0016] Advantageous embodiments of the invention are the subject of the dependent claims.

[0017] According to an advantageous embodiment, the mounting body has a linear guide onto or into which the fitting housing can be slid.

[0018] This allows for easy installation of the flap by sliding the flap fittings in from the front of the furniture.

[0019] According to a preferred embodiment, the locking unit is arranged on the mounting body and has a locking pawl that pivots into a detent recess on the fitting housing during assembly, wherein the release element is coupled to the locking pawl in such a way that the locking pawl can be pivoted out of the detent recess on the fitting housing by actuating the release element.

[0020] The locking unit can be designed in multiple parts, so that the base body, the release element and the locking pawl are designed separately and assembled into a single unit.

[0021] It is also possible to provide an integrated design of two or all three of the above-mentioned elements. Such a locking latch-recess combination allows for easy locking of the fitting housing to the locking unit.

[0022] According to another design variant, it is conceivable to arrange the locking unit and a locking pawl, which can be pivoted into a detent recess on the mounting body during assembly, on the fitting housing, so that the locking pawl can be pivoted out of the detent recess on the mounting body by actuating the release element.

[0023] According to a further advantageous development, the locking pawl is formed integrally with the release element.

[0024] According to a further embodiment of the invention, the mounting body is constructed in a mirror-symmetrical manner with respect to a horizontal mirror plane.

[0025] This allows the mounting rail to be attached to both the left and right side walls of the furniture body.

[0026] In this respect, the locking unit can also be designed to be mirror-symmetrical to a horizontal mirror plane.

[0027] It is also conceivable to construct the mounting body in a mirror-symmetrical manner to a vertical mirror plane.

[0028] This variant also allows the mounting body to be attached to both the left and right side walls of the furniture body.

[0029] Furthermore, instead of a mounting rail that is mirror-symmetrical about a horizontal plane, it can also be designed so that it can be selectively attached to either the left or right side wall of the furniture carcass from either side surface. For this purpose, for example, several sleeves are provided in the mounting rail, extending parallel to the horizontal pivot axis of the flap. Preferably, a constriction is formed in the middle of these sleeves, serving as a counter-surface for screw heads that, when screwed into the sleeves and the side wall of the furniture carcass, bear against this constriction.

[0030] The mounting bracket can be attached to the side panel of the furniture carcass. Alternatively, the mounting bracket can be attached to the top panel of the furniture carcass.

[0031] Alternatively, the mounting body can be attached to either the side wall or the top of the furniture body.

[0032] In order to hold the flap as stably as possible on the mounting element, the width of the mounting body, viewed in the direction of the horizontal pivot axis of the flap, is smaller than the width of the flap fitting, so that despite being mounted via the mounting body on the side wall of the furniture carcass, the flap fitting is still positioned relatively far outwards, close to the side wall.

[0033] In a preferred embodiment, the at least one flap fitting is arranged above a top panel of the furniture body and the at least one mounting body is attached to a side wall of the furniture body above the top panel.

[0034] Provided the space above the furniture is freely accessible, it is possible to detach the flap and its fittings from the furniture body without opening the flap.

[0035] Furthermore, with this arrangement of at least one flap fitting above the top of the furniture body, it is always possible to operate the release element in an open position of the flap from a front side of the furniture body that is concealed by the flap in a closed position.

[0036] In the open position of the flap, i.e., in a partially or fully open state, a gap is formed between the front edge of the top panel facing the flap and the upper edge of the flap facing the furniture body. This gap allows the release mechanism to be easily operated by an installer or user of the furniture, even when the flap is fully assembled.

[0037] The release element is concealed by the flap in the closed position, which covers at least part of the front of the furniture carcass. According to a further preferred embodiment, the mounting body has an adjustment device at its end closest to the front of the furniture carcass for adjusting the flap fitting relative to the furniture carcass in at least one spatial direction.

[0038] This allows the alignment of the flap relative to the furniture body to be easily adjusted by means of the adjustment device located near the front of the furniture body on the mounting body, preferably from different separate access directions.

[0039] Preferred embodiments are explained in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. They show:

[0050] Figure 12 shows a representation corresponding to Figure 11 with a flap fitting and mounting body attached to the top of the furniture body, corresponding to Figure 10, to illustrate the accessibility of the release element which can be operated by a tool.

[0051] In the following figure descriptions, terms such as top, bottom, left, right, front, back, etc., refer exclusively to the exemplary representation and position of the furniture, furniture body, top panel, flap, flap fitting, mounting body, locking unit, and the like as chosen in the respective figures. These terms are not to be understood restrictively; that is, these references may change due to different working positions, mirror-symmetrical design, or similar factors.

[0052] In Figure 1, reference numeral 1 denotes an embodiment of a piece of furniture according to the invention. The furniture 1 comprises a furniture body 2, a flap 3 associated with the furniture body 2, and at least one flap fitting 4, or in the illustrated embodiment, two flap fittings 4, with which the flap 3 is attached to the furniture body 2.

[0053] Depending on the size and weight of the flap 3, it is also conceivable to fix the flap 3 to the furniture body 2 with only one flap fitting 4.

[0054] The furniture body 2 has at least one side wall 21 and a top panel 22. The top panel 22 can be recessed relative to the upper end face of a side wall 21, so that an overhang 211 of the side wall 21 is formed above the top panel 22. This overhang 211 can, in conjunction with the flap 3 when the flap 3 is closed, form a receiving space concealed from the user's field of vision.

[0055] The flap fitting 4 itself, as shown in Figures 2 and 3, comprises a fitting housing 41 attached to the furniture body 2 and a mounting element 42 attached to the flap 3. In the embodiment shown here, the mounting element 42 is provided with a mounting cup which is secured in a corresponding recess in the flap 3, as shown in Figures 11 and 12. The fitting housing 41 and the mounting element 42 are pivotably connected to each other about a horizontal axis A shown in Figure 3 and are guided to move relative to each other. The connection is preferably made via at least one actuating arm 43 that pivots about the horizontal axis A and can be designed as a single joint or as a multi-joint.

[0056] According to the invention, the flap fitting 4 is not attached directly to the furniture body 2, but indirectly via a mounting body 5 attached to the furniture body 2.

[0057] The fitting housing 41 for attaching the flap fitting 4 to the furniture body 2 can be locked into a functional position by means of a locking unit 6 on the mounting body 5. This functional position is shown in particular in Figure 3.

[0058] Furthermore, a release element 61 is arranged on the mounting body 5 near the flap 3, by actuating which the locking of the fitting housing 41 can be released from the mounting body 5.

[0059] The mounting of the flap fitting 4 on the mounting body 5 is preferably carried out by inserting the flap fitting 4 into a linear guide 52 of the mounting body 5, as is illustrated in Figures 2 and 3, where Figure 2 shows the flap fitting 4 and the mounting body 5 before the flap fitting 4 is fixed to the mounting body 5 and Figure 3 shows the inserted position of the flap fitting 4 on the mounting body 5.

[0060] It can be clearly seen here that the linear guide 52 of the mounting body 5, as shown in Figure 4, is designed in the form of two webs projecting upwards and downwards along a mounting body housing 51. The linear guide 52 is inserted into a corresponding lower grip 46 and upper grip 47 of the fitting housing 41 of the flap fitting 4.

[0061] The lower handle 46 is formed by bending the material from the side wall 44 of the fitting housing 41.

[0062] The overlap 47 is designed as a chamfer on the upper side of the side wall 44.

[0063] This holds the flap fitting 4 and the mounting body 5 together in the direction of the horizontal axis A, i.e., in the direction of the width of the flap fitting 4 and the mounting body 5. According to Figure 1, the horizontal axis A corresponds to the spatial direction X. Additionally, this positive locking prevents movement in the Z-direction.

[0064] The longitudinal fixing Y is achieved via a locking pawl 63 of the locking unit 6, which in the rusted state, as shown in Figures 7 and 8, is rusted into a designated detent recess 45 on the fitting housing 41.

[0065] As can be seen further in Figures 4 and 5, the release element 61 is coupled to the locking pawl 63 in such a way that by actuating the release element 61 the locking pawl 63 can be pivoted out of the detent recess 45 on the fitting housing 41.

[0066] The locking unit 6 is shown in Figure 5 as a separate assembly unit, which is inserted into a corresponding opening in the mounting body housing 51 of the mounting body 5 and fixed there.

[0067] The fixing can be achieved, as can be seen in Figures 4 and 5, for example via locking tabs 65 which are provided in corresponding locking grooves 53 in the mounting body housing 51 of the mounting body 5.

[0068] It is also conceivable in principle to arrange the locking unit 6 on the fitting housing 41 and accordingly the locking recess on the mounting body housing 51 of the mounting body 5.

[0069] As can be seen, for example, in Figure 5, the locking pawl 63 is formed integrally with the release element 61. A multi-part design is also conceivable, in which the base body, the release element, and the locking pawl are formed separately and assembled into a single unit.

[0070] In the embodiment shown here, the release element 61 is designed as a ribbed element with a knurled surface 611 on the surface facing away from the flap fitting 4. To release the flap fitting 4 from the mounting body 5, the user presses the release element 61 against this knurled surface in the direction of the flap fitting 4, thereby moving the locking blade 63 out of the locking recess 45 on the fitting housing 41. The release element 61 can move the locking blade 63 linearly and / or pivotally.

[0071] The release element 61 is preferably held spring-loaded about a vertical axis on the base body 62 of the locking unit 6 via a spring arm 64.

[0072] The spring arm 64 is located in the Y direction between the release element 61 and the pawl 63, thus creating a two-sided lever. As a result, when the release element 61 is actuated, the pawl 63 moves in the opposite direction.

[0073] It is also conceivable to arrange the spring arm 64 in the Y direction behind the release element 61 and the pawl 63. This creates a one-sided lever, and the release element 61 and pawl 63 move in the same direction.

[0074] This allows manual release of the release element 61, particularly when the flap 3 is open, as shown in Figures 11 and 12, where the release element 61 shown in Figure 9 is accessible through a gap between the top 22 and the flap 3.

[0075] Such a gap is formed between the front edge of the top panel 22 facing the flap 3 and the upper edge of the flap 3 facing the furniture body 2, when the flap 3 is partially or fully open. This gap allows the release element 61 to be conveniently operated by an installer or user of the furniture when the furniture is fully assembled, whether the flap 3 is partially or fully open. The distance between the front edge of the top panel and the upper edge of the flap 3 is smaller when the flap 3 is partially or fully open than when the flap 3 is closed. The flap fitting 4 guides the flap 3 in such a way that it does not swing upwards in the area of ​​the furniture body 2.Conversely, the upper part of flap 3 is lowered, so that flap 3 does not rise above the top edge of the furniture body 2, even when it is swung upwards beyond a horizontal opening position, and even when located directly in front of it. This prevents a collision, even with elements located above the furniture body 2 that protrude slightly forwards.

[0076] In addition to manual operation using a user's finger, it is also conceivable to use a tool 11 to release the flap fitting 4 from the mounting body 5, as illustrated by way of example in Figures 10 and 12.

[0077] In the embodiments shown in Figures 1, 11 and 12, the at least one flap fitting 4 is arranged above a top surface 22 of the furniture body 2 and the at least one mounting body 5 is attached to a side wall 21 of the furniture body 2 above the top surface 22.

[0078] As shown particularly in Figure 1, one mounting body 5 is attached to the left side wall 21 of the furniture carcass 2 and another mounting body 5 is attached to a right side wall 21 of the furniture carcass 2 above the top panel 22. A flap fitting 4 is fixed to each of the mounting bodies 5.

[0079] To simplify assembly and storage, the assembly bodies 5 are preferably designed to be mirror-symmetrical to a horizontal mirror plane.

[0080] It is also conceivable, in principle, to assemble the mounting bodies 5 in a mirror-symmetrical manner with respect to a vertical mirror plane.

[0081] As further shown in Figure 6, the width WM of the mounting body 5, viewed in the direction of the horizontal axis A, is smaller than the width WB of the flap fitting 4.

[0082] The mounting body 5 preferably further comprises, as shown in Figures 2-4, 6 and 8 to 12, an adjustment device 7, 7' at its end near the front side 23 of the furniture body 2 for adjusting the flap fitting 4 relative to the furniture body 2 in at least one spatial direction X, Y, Z.

[0083] A first embodiment, shown in Figures 2-4, 6 and 8, 9 and 11, can be operated manually, preferably with a user's finger.

[0084] A second embodiment, shown in Figures 10 and 12, can be operated with a tool 11.

[0085] The depth adjustment of the adjustment device 7 in a spatial direction Y has a depth adjustment wheel 73 that is rotatable about a horizontal axis.

[0086] Coupled with this depth adjustment wheel 73, a vertically extending elongated hole of the second housing part 52 is arranged on the surface facing the mounting body part 52, with a pin extending in the vertical direction.

[0087] When the depth adjustment wheel 73 is rotated about its axis of rotation, a circular segment movement of the pin leads to a horizontal displacement of the mounting body part 52 relative to the mounting body base part 51 in the direction Y.

[0088] The direction Y corresponds to the depth of the furniture carcass 2, where the depth of the furniture carcass 2 is to be understood as the horizontal extent of the furniture carcass 2 in the direction of the normal to the vertical front surface.

[0089] A base body 71 of the adjusting device 7 is fixed in the X direction on the mounting body base part 51 via a threaded bolt 76, which is fixed on a rear side 511 of the mounting body base part 51 in a receptacle 512 provided for this purpose.

[0090] The threaded bolt 76 simultaneously serves as a pivot axis for the side adjustment wheel 72, which can be rotated about the same horizontal axis B as the depth adjustment wheel 73.

[0091] For lateral adjustment in a spatial direction X, the adjustment device 7 further comprises a lateral adjustment wheel 72. By rotating the lateral adjustment wheel 72, a front end of the mounting body part 52, near the front face 23 of the furniture carcass 2, can be pivoted about a pivot axis 541 provided in the region of a rear end of the mounting body base part 51. The pivot axis 541 is preferably formed on a U-shaped element 54 attached to the mounting body part 52 and projecting into the U-shaped profile of the mounting body base part 51, and projects into a groove 513 of the mounting body base part 51 extending in the depth direction Y of the mounting body 5, in order to enable movement of the mounting body part 52 towards the mounting body base part 51 during depth adjustment in the direction Y and to guide the pivoting movement during lateral adjustment.

[0092] The threaded element designed here as a threaded bolt 76 is provided with an external thread which meshes with an internal thread of a bolt receptacle of the side adjusting wheel 72.

[0093] The side adjustment wheel 72 can be adjusted on the threaded bolt 76 in a direction X, which corresponds to the horizontal axis B, parallel to the axis A.

[0094] A rotational movement of the side adjustment wheel 72 causes the depth adjustment wheel 73 and, with it, the mounting body part 52 adjacent to the depth adjustment wheel 73 to be moved along the axis B along the axial movement of the side adjustment wheel 72.

[0095] As can be clearly seen in Figures 10 and 12, the adjusting device 7' has several tool guide receptacles 78 for guiding a tool 11.

[0096] In this embodiment, both the depth adjustment wheel (not shown) and the side adjustment wheel 72' are provided with a respective crown gear toothing, which serves for the engagement of a tool 11 provided with a corresponding toothing radially to the axis of rotation of the side adjustment wheel 72'.

[0097] The tool guide mounts 78 are integrally formed on a base body 71' of the adjustment device 7. The orientation of these tool guide mounts 78 is such that a tool can be inserted into the tool guide mounts 78 through the gap between the flap 3 and the top surface 22 when the flap 3 is open, as shown by way of example in Figure 12.

[0098] A second pair of tool guide receptacles 78 serves to feed the tool 11 in a case where an additional shelf of the furniture 1 or a superstructure is arranged above the flap fitting 4. Here, the tool 11 can be inserted into the tool guide receptacles 78 through a slot between the additional shelf and the open flap 3.

[0099] With flap fittings 4 and mounting bodies 5 arranged on the top surface 22 of the furniture body 2, the mounting bodies 5 with the locking units 6 are hardly visible to the user when the flap 3 is open.

[0100] To remove the flap 3, it is only necessary to actuate the release element 61 with a finger or a tool 11. When the release element 61 is actuated, the locking blade 63 pivots out of the detent recess 45 of the flap fitting 4, and the flap fitting 4 with the attached flap 3 can thus be pulled out of the mounting body 5 in the longitudinal direction Y towards the front 23 of the furniture carcass 2.

[0101] Provided that the furniture 1 is not built over, it is possible to operate the release element 61 even when the flap 3 is closed. In this case as well, after operating the release element 61, the flap fitting 4, together with the flap 3, can be pulled away from the mounting body 5 from the front 23 of the furniture carcass 2.

[0102] The mounting body 5 is preferably screwed to the side walls 21 of the furniture carcass 2. Mounting via expansion dowels or sleeves is also conceivable. Furthermore, at least one pre-positioned tab can be provided for positioning the mounting body 5 on the furniture carcass 2, which engages in at least one recess in the side wall 21 or the top panel 22.
