Description

[0001] Arrangement comprising a drawer side panel and a mounting device for a front panel

[0002] The invention relates to an arrangement comprising at least one drawer side wall, preferably a side frame, optionally a front panel for connection to the at least one drawer side wall, and at least one fastening device for detachably fastening a front panel to the drawer side wall, wherein the at least one fastening device is each

[0003] - a front fitting that can be pre-mounted on a front panel and includes a locking pin and

[0004] The invention comprises a catch device associated with the drawer side panel, preferably in the form of a pivotable hook and / or lever mounted on a support, for the front fitting, wherein exactly one catch device or exactly one front fitting is provided per drawer side panel. The invention further relates to a drawer with such an arrangement, as well as a set of at least two drawer side panels and a set of at least two front panels. The invention further relates to a fastening device for such an arrangement.

[0005] Traditionally, drawer fronts are attached and secured to drawers (or drawer boxes) using front fittings that interact with catches. For shallow fronts, one front fitting per drawer side is generally sufficient to distribute the force applied to the drawer when the front is pulled, ensuring that neither damage to the drawer or front panel occurs due to a bending moment around the front fitting as the pivot point, nor does the front panel detach from the drawer. In the furniture industry, standardized drilling patterns for front fittings have become established, arranged on the front panel in a 32 mm grid – starting approximately 40 mm from the underside of the front panel.

[0006] For tall front panels, the arrangement must be adapted accordingly to mitigate both potential problems. In the context of the invention, a tall front panel above 300 mm, preferably 400 mm, and particularly preferably 500 mm, can be assumed. The following solutions have become established in this regard: A railing bar can be mounted as an additional and spatially separate attachment point in addition to the front fitting to increase the stability of the drawer and front panel assembly. An additional front fitting can be used to provide another attachment point for the front panel. A dowel pin can be used in addition to the front fitting, which, as an additional attachment point, increases the strength of the assembly.The basic aim is to position the attachment point of the primary front fitting as close as possible to the guide system (as low as possible in the vertical direction) in order to save material or to achieve a particularly favorable coupling to the guide system for force transmission.

[0007] A disadvantage of the current state of the art is that additional components are required for flexural stability and to prevent the decoupling of the front panel and drawer. Furthermore, a high degree of precision regarding tolerances in production and assembly is necessary to avoid undesirably large play in the connection and to ensure the alignment of the mounting points. However, the existing locking mechanisms of the catch devices for the front fitting exhibit insufficient spring resistance to adequately counteract the high tilting moments generated by tall front panels and thus prevent disengagement between the front panel and drawer. Moreover, these tilting moments, even before disengagement occurs, already generate a deformation or change in orientation between the front panel and drawer, which can cause damage to the components involved.

[0008] The objective technical object of the present invention is therefore to provide an improved arrangement compared to the prior art, as well as a drawer and a set, in which the disadvantages of the prior art are at least partially eliminated, and which are characterized in particular by a particularly low tendency to disengage or a particularly low risk of damage with particularly low assembly and / or production effort and / or a particularly small number of required component parts.

[0009] This problem is solved by the features of claims 1 and 2.

[0010] According to a first aspect, it is therefore provided that a receiving opening of the catch device for the locking pin in the operating position of the arrangement in a state coupled or connectable to the front fitting is distanced from a lower edge of the drawer side wall at least 100 mm, preferably 120 mm, particularly preferably 140 mm, in a vertical direction.

[0011] According to a second aspect, it is therefore provided that the locking pin in the operating position of the arrangement, in a state that can be coupled or coupled with the catch device, is distanced from an underside of the front panel by at least 100 mm, preferably 120 mm, particularly preferably 140 mm in a vertical direction, wherein the front panel projects further upwards than downwards in a vertical direction beyond the drawer side wall.

[0012] One or both of these aspects, or a combination thereof, ensures that even under high tensile loads on the front panel with significant vertical dimensions (heights above 300 mm up to 800 mm), the relative positioning between the drawer runner, container runner, or cabinet runner provides sufficient distance to effectively prevent excessive torque acting on the front fitting as its pivot point, which could potentially disengage or damage it – without requiring an additional fastening point. Preferably, the front panel is made primarily of wood or a wood-like material. Preferably, the drawer side panel is made primarily of metal. Generally, the material selection of the components involved is not essential and can, for example, also be made primarily of plastic (or a wooden drawer side panel).

[0013] In addition, there is the positive characteristic of increased front panel stability, resulting in improved strength or a particularly stable arrangement. In other words, a support point, attachment point, or pivot point is created between the front fitting and the drawer side panel (generally the drawer side wall), which enables particularly favorable force transmission through sufficient spacing between this axis of rotation and the lower edge of the front panel or the drawer runner, container runner, or cabinet runner.

[0014] Preferably, exactly one receiving opening per catch device and / or exactly one locking pin per front fitting and / or exactly one fastening device per drawer side panel is provided.

[0015] The vertical spacing of the receiving opening can be stationary. Preferably, the vertical spacing moves in a pivoting or rotating motion during the capturing process, preferably ensuring that the receiving opening remains at the minimum distance during the capturing movement and / or that the minimum distance is in a state suitable for coupling the front fitting.

[0016] The side edge of the drawer side panel that faces the front panel along its lower edge generally acts as a support for the surface of the front panel facing the drawer side panel and serves to support the front panel. Preferably, this side edge is arranged horizontally in the area of ​​the locking pin or the receiving opening.

[0017] In the context of the invention, a railing, a dowel pin or the like represents a furniture fitting which is to be avoided according to the invention.

[0018] For example, starting from the underside of the front panel, a 32 mm grid of holes for the front fitting begins at 40 mm and comprises at least four holes to optionally attach two front fittings per side of the front panel. The position of the single front fitting per side of the front panel according to the invention is thus located on the upper two holes, so that with a substantially symmetrical front fitting, the locking pin is located at a height of 120 mm, and with a maximally asymmetrical design of the front fitting, it is spaced at least 104 mm from the underside of the front panel.

[0019] The minimum offset of at least 100 mm ensures sufficient front panel stability when the arrangement is used correctly, resulting in the following advantages: The costs of the arrangement can be significantly reduced, as no custom-made parts are required for varying front panel heights, and a high degree of identical or equivalent parts can be used across a wide range of drawer side panel or front panel heights. In production and assembly, the need for different types of front fittings and / or catches is eliminated. The end user or installer therefore does not have to choose between different front fitting options. Furthermore, the effort required for retooling with different types of front fittings or catches is eliminated.

[0020] During assembly, the established or standardized drilling pattern grid with a distance between holes of 32 mm can be used or maintained if the conventional distance to the underside of the front panel is shifted upwards by, for example, 64 mm in the vertical direction according to the drilling pattern.

[0021] The front fitting can therefore be positioned higher for tall side panels and / or tall front panels to achieve a position relative to the drawer or container rail that provides high support when the front panel is pulled. This means that one front fitting per drawer side panel is sufficient from a static point of view – even for front panels used in waste bins with a front panel height of approximately 800 mm. For all established or conventional side panel heights or drawer / case side panels, as well as the attached front panel heights, only one fixing point per side is required due to the specific arrangement. This point is formed by the front fitting in connection with the catch mechanism – defined by the vertical positioning of the locking pin.By means of a specific locking mechanism (for example, via a position of the locking pin, a geometry of the front fitting, a shape of the catch device, a control of a locking device and / or a design of a blocking contour of a safety device), it can be ensured or guaranteed that even in the event of an overload outside of proper use of the arrangement, no disengagement process or damage to the arrangement will occur.

[0022] The increased stability and strength result from the relative position between the locking pin in the locked position and the underside of the front panel. This position is preferably at least 110 mm, more preferably at least 130 mm, and particularly preferably at least 150 mm. The favorable force distribution is transferred to the underside of a front panel holder or the underside of the drawer side panel and can optionally be absorbed by the guide system. When the front panel is pulled, a force application vector can be provided by the locking pin at a vertical distance of 110 mm under particularly favorable geometric conditions to compensate for the torque acting on the component parts involved.For example, if one considers a force component along the hypotenuse resulting from the locking pin at a vertical spacing of 110 mm, the resulting distance along the hypotenuse is approximately 120 mm. This represents a particularly favorable horizontal spacing for reducing the effective tilting moment. A particularly robust locking mechanism and / or a particularly strong fastening device further contribute to this reduction.

[0023] As stated at the outset, protection is also sought for a drawer with at least one such arrangement, wherein in the context of the invention a drawer box is to be encompassed by a drawer.

[0024] As stated at the outset, protection is also sought for a set of at least two, preferably identical, drawer side panels, wherein a first drawer side panel has a first height and a second drawer side panel has a second height that differs from the first height, wherein at least partially within each of the two drawer side panels exactly one catch device for receiving a front fitting is arranged, wherein the two catch devices are arranged in different vertical positions relative to a lower edge of the respective drawer side panel and are identically designed or configured to fix the same front fitting.

[0025] This makes it possible to provide identical side frames for identical front fittings, whereby the side frames differ in the positioning of the connection point for the front fittings in order to be able to connect a wide range of front panels with a minimal range of front fittings or catch devices.

[0026] In general, the entire fastening device or, for example, any safety devices that may be present in addition to the catch devices can be designed identically.

[0027] As stated at the outset, protection is also sought for a set of at least two, preferably identical, front panels, wherein a first front panel has a first height and a second front panel has a second height that differs from the first height, wherein exactly two front fittings for a catch device are mounted on the first front panel and on the second front panel, wherein the front fittings arranged in pairs on the front panels are arranged in different vertical positions relative to a bottom of the respective front panel and are identically designed.

[0028] This allows both front panels to be designed without an additional, stability-enhancing front fitting and to be attached to the corresponding side frames using these same front fittings. The front fittings (four in the case of two front panels) are generally arranged on both sides in the area of ​​the two side surfaces, with sufficient distance from the two side surfaces to prevent breakage.

[0029] As stated at the outset, protection is also sought for a fastening device for such an arrangement, wherein the fastening device

[0030] - a front fitting which can be pre-mounted on a front panel and preferably includes a locking pin, and - a catch device for the front fitting which is associated with the drawer side wall,

[0031] wherein- the fastening device comprises at least one guide track, preferably with an insertion ramp, for guiding the front fitting, and

[0032] - the front fitting comprises at least one clearance, preferably and an inclined surface, for contacting a part of the fastening device,

[0033] wherein the front fitting can be supported or supported via the at least one clearance on the at least one guide track .

[0034] The interaction between the release mechanism and the guide track can, on the one hand, facilitate the insertion process of the front fitting into the fastening device or the catch device, and on the other hand, create a particularly favorable bearing situation between the front fitting and a part of the fastening device, which has a particularly high stability.

[0035] Advantageous embodiments of the invention are defined in the dependent claims.

[0036] Preferably a safety device is provided for the catch device which prevents the front fitting from being unintentionally released from the catch device and / or exactly one catch device ( 6) is provided per drawer side wall and / or exactly one locking pin is provided per front fitting .

[0037] Preferably, the front panel has a height of at least 300 mm, preferably 400 mm, particularly preferably 500 mm, and more preferably 600 mm.

[0038] At least one drawer side panel can be designed in an analogous manner to be at least 300 mm high or have a maximum height of 250 mm, preferably 200 mm, particularly preferably 150 mm. The front panel can, for example, be in the form of a waste drawer panel of essentially 800 mm.

[0039] It is preferably provided that the front fitting comprises at least two, preferably exactly two, fixing points for the front panel and / or that a drilling pattern in a grid in the vertical direction, preferably of substantially 32 mm or 19 mm, is arranged on both sides of the front panel for two front fittings, wherein it is preferably provided that at least four holes per side of the front panel are provided and / or that a lowest hole is spaced at least 35 mm, preferably 40 mm, from a bottom of the front panel in the vertical direction.

[0040] This allows for the particularly favorable positioning of the locking pin without special designs and with a stable connection between the front panel and the drawer side panel. In particular, the vertical positioning and / or vertical spacing of the fixing points prevents the front fitting's mounting dowels from being pulled out at the fixing points that connect to the holes in the front panel. Generally, two fixing points are sufficient.

[0041] Preferably, the catch device is arranged on the carrier and holds the front fitting when at least a part of the front fitting is inserted, preferably automatically and / or autonomously.

[0042] This allows the front fitting to be mounted on the drawer side wall without tools using a one-handed movement and, for example, additionally secured by a safety device or locking device.

[0043] Preferably, a locking device is provided for the catch device, wherein the locking device, preferably a separate pivotable hook and / or lever, comprises a locking device with a release mechanism for releasing the front fitting from the catch device, and preferably, that

[0044] - a rotation axis of the release device corresponds to the rotation axis of the locking device and / or the catch device and / or

[0045] - a coupling device, preferably a bolt, is provided for coupling the movement of the catch device with the movement of the safety device and / or

[0046] - an L-shaped locking contour is provided for clamping a bolt and / or

[0047] - the safety device is arranged on a side opposite the support of the at least one fastening device relative to the catch device.

[0048] For example, a bolt is guided as a coupling device in a control contour of a carrier, wherein the pivoting movement of the catch device and the locking device about the axis of rotation are coupled by means of the bolt, the bolt generating a locking state of the catch device in a securing contour of a securing device. The locking state can be converted to a release state in the reverse direction via a release device for the catch device, so that the front fitting can be removed. Functionally, the securing device can prevent unintentional release of the front fitting and / or is preferably convertible from a locking state to a release state by means of the release device. Preferably, alternatively or additionally, the catch device is rotated and / or converted to a release state by means of the release device.Preferably, the locking device has a blocking contour for securing the locking pin, which in the fastening state is essentially vertically oriented or orthogonally oriented to an insertion direction of the locking bolt.

[0049] The locking contour preferably has an acute angle of less than 30°, preferably between 20° and 30°, between the vertical direction when locked. Generally, the acute angle can be less than 20° – for example, between 10° and 20°. If the locking contour is too shallow relative to the locking pin, an undesirable disengagement process is encouraged. The locking contour allows the locking pin to be forced into a defined locking position to press against the front panel and drawer side wall (especially a separate front panel holder).

[0050] It is preferably provided that the catch device and / or the safety device is mounted on the support by means of at least one energy storage device, wherein it is preferably provided that the at least one energy storage device is oriented essentially in a vertical direction.

[0051] With a substantially vertical orientation of the energy storage element, including acute angles up to 30°, preferably 20°, and particularly preferably 15°, a particularly compact fastening device is ensured. Because the position for receiving the locking pin is offset vertically upwards, the area remaining below the catch device can be used to accommodate the energy storage element, thus reducing the horizontal dimensions of the catch device.It is preferably provided that at least one adjusting device, preferably arranged on the front fitting, is provided, with which a vertical and / or lateral-transverse position of at least one part of the front fitting relative to the carrier can be adjusted in the fastening state of the front fitting on the fastening device, wherein the at least one adjusting device comprises at least one actuating device, wherein it is preferably provided that at least one lateral adjustment device with a thread and / or a height adjustment device with an eccentric, preferably with one or two rivet(s) guided in a slot and / or a vertical guide track, is / are provided.

[0052] It is preferably provided that the release device and the at least one adjustment device, preferably the actuating devices of two adjustment devices, are arranged essentially at the same height in the fastening state and / or remain in this position during actuation of the at least one adjustment device and / or the release device.

[0053] By arranging the components at the same height, the assembly has a particularly aesthetically pleasing appearance. Because the relative position to each other is maintained, or because the vertical (or horizontal) position does not change when the adjustment device is operated, it is possible to make the adjustment device and / or the release mechanism accessible in the drawer side panel through a substantially circular bore with an extent essentially in the area of ​​the tool holder. This results in a particularly clean look for the assembly – a large adjustment window is unnecessary.

[0054] Preferably, the front fitting is designed in two parts and / or comprises two plates aligned parallel to each other and / or is designed symmetrically or asymmetrically, wherein it is preferably provided that the locking pin is arranged below at least one adjustment device that may be present and / or can be inserted into the catch device below a release device that may be present.

[0055] If the front fitting is designed in two parts, the lateral adjustment and / or height adjustment can result in a change of position between the base body and any parallel plates that may be present, thus eliminating the need for a change of position on the catch device.

[0056] Preferably, an arrangement is provided with a guide device for the arrangement comprising a drawer rail and / or a container rail, wherein the locking pin in the fastening state connected to the at least one drawer side wall is spaced at least 100 mm, preferably 120 mm, particularly preferably 140 mm, in a vertical direction from a top surface of the drawer rail and / or the container rail.

[0057] Preferably, the vertical offset of the two catching devices in the set is substantially 19 mm or 32 mm or 64 mm or a multiple of substantially 19 mm or 32 mm or 64 mm.

[0058] It is preferably intended that

[0059] - the at least one fastening device comprises at least one, preferably two, three or four, guide track for guiding and / or supporting the at least one front fitting, wherein it is preferably provided that the at least one guide track, preferably each one, comprises an insertion ramp, and / or - the at least one front fitting comprises at least one, preferably two, clearance and / or inclined surface for contacting the at least one fastening device, wherein it is preferably provided that the at least one clearance, preferably each one, comprises the inclined surface,

[0060] preferably, the at least one front fitting is arranged in the operating position of the arrangement via two clearances on four guide rails.

[0061] This allows – particularly with an insertion ramp – the provision of an insertion aid for the front fitting and a support for forces acting on the front fitting. A clearance fit is particularly preferred between the clearance and the guide track, which can be converted into contact under load. The guidance and / or support can be in a vertical and / or horizontal direction – for example, with four guide tracks, each (not necessarily) including an insertion ramp. For example, the ramp can be located on the area of ​​the front fitting that generates the clearance, and alternatively or additionally, a ramp can be provided within the clearance. Preferably, a ramp is provided on an upper and lower side of the front fitting, although this is not mandatory.Preferably, at least one guide track is provided for the top and bottom of the front fitting, although this is not mandatory.

[0062] For example, a catching device can be designed for low front panels and a catching device for high front panels.

[0063] Preferably, the vertical offset of the two front fittings is substantially 19 mm or 32 mm or 64 mm or a multiple of substantially 19 mm or 32 mm or 64 mm.

[0064] For example, a front panel can be provided for connection to an arrangement not according to the invention (or according to the invention), and a second front panel can be provided according to the positioning of the front fitting according to the invention.

[0065] Further details and advantages of the present invention are explained in more detail below with reference to the description of the figures and the exemplary embodiments shown in the drawings. These show:

[0067] Figs. 8, 9 show a set of multiple drawer side panels or front panels with a different positioning of a locking pin for the fastening device and a front panel with a corresponding drilling pattern.

[0068] Fig. 10 shows a preferred fastening device for an arrangement according to one of the embodiments according to Figs. 1 to 9 in different views and an isolated representation of a preferred front fitting.

[0069] Figs. 11 and 12 show another preferred fastening device for an arrangement according to one of the embodiments according to Figs. 1 to 9 in views looking towards the catching device or the securing device, respectively.

[0070] Figs. 13a-13c show another preferred fastening device for an arrangement according to one of the embodiments according to Figs. 1 to 9 in different views and varying positions.

[0071] Fig. 1 shows four arrangements, each comprising two drawer side panels 1 in the form of side frames and a front panel 2. The drawer side panels 1 differ in height, and in general, the front panels 2 can be provided with varying heights, either alternatively or additionally.

[0072] The arrangements according to Fig. 2 differ from those according to Fig. 1 only in that the front panels 2 are shown detached from the drawer side walls 1. It is evident that the arrangements include fastening devices 3 for the detachable fastening of the respective front panel 2 to the drawer side walls 1.

[0073] Front fittings 5 ​​(in pairs) are pre-mounted on the front panels 2 as part of the fastening devices 3, each of which has a locking pin 4. The front fittings 5 ​​are mounted at different heights on the front panels 2.

[0074] The arrangements according to Fig. 3 differ from the arrangements according to Fig. 2 only in that the drawer side walls 1 are shown partially broken open for visualization purposes in order to reveal the fastening devices 3.

[0075] The fastening devices 3 each comprise a catch device 6 assigned to the drawer side wall 1 in the form of a pivotable hook 8 or lever mounted on a support 7 for the front fitting 5 and a locking device 9 arranged behind the support 7 for the catch device 6 (see Fig. 10), which prevents the front fitting 5 from being unintentionally released from the catch device 6.

[0076] Each drawer side panel 1 is provided with exactly one catch device 6 and one fastening device 3, wherein a receiving opening 38 of the catch device 6 for the locking pin 4 is, in the operating position of the arrangement in a state coupled and connectable to the front fitting 5, distanced from a lower edge 35 of the drawer side panel 1 by at least 100 mm in the vertical direction 11. In the lowest arrangement, the locking pin 4 and the receiving opening 38 are distanced at least 140 mm from the lower edge 35 of the side frame.

[0077] Each drawer side panel 1 has exactly one front fitting 5, wherein the locking pin 4, in the operating position of the arrangement, is coupled to and connected with the catch device 6 and is distanced at least 100 mm in the vertical direction 11 from a bottom surface 10 of the front panel 2. In the lowest arrangement, the locking pin 4 is distanced at least 140 mm from the bottom surface 10 of the front panel 2.

[0078] Each drawer side panel 1 has exactly one catch device 6. Each front fitting 5 has exactly one locking pin 4. The front panels 2 extend further upwards than downwards in the vertical direction 11 beyond the drawer side panels 1.

[0079] Fig. 4 shows a drawer 34 with an arrangement featuring a particularly high front panel 2. The catch device 6 and the locking device 9 are mounted on the support 7 by means of a force storage element 21, wherein the force storage element 21 is oriented essentially in the vertical direction 11 due to the high vertical position of the locking pin 4, thus reducing the horizontal dimensioning of the fastening device 3. The arrangement is in a fixed position, with the fastening device 3 being in a locked position.

[0080] Fig. 5 differs from Fig. 4 only in that the arrangement is in the disassembled state or the fastening device 3 is in a release state.

[0081] The arrangement comprises a guide device 32 for the translational movement of the drawer side wall 1 relative to a cabinet rail of a furniture carcass, wherein the arrangement includes a container rail 31 for connecting a drawer rail of the guide device 32. Generally, it may be provided that no container rail 31 is present.

[0082] The locking pin 4, when attached to the drawer side wall 1, is spaced at least 100 mm in the vertical direction 11 from a top surface 33 of the drawer rail and the container rail 31.

[0083] Figures 6 and 7 illustrate the forces acting on the fastening device 3 when the drawer 34 is opened or closed, due to the tilting of the front panel 2. In Figure 6, tension is exerted on the front panel 2, creating a torque around the locking pin 4 as the pivot point. This torque poses the risk of disengaging the locking and fastening positions between the front fitting 5 and the catch 6. Furthermore, the underside 10 of the front panel 2 could collide with the drawer side wall 1 or the guide 32, a problem that should be avoided. A similar problem can occur, as shown in Figure 7, when pressure is applied to the front panel 2. These situations are mitigated by the high vertical positioning of the locking pin 4 in the assembly.

[0084] Fig. 8 shows a set of two identical drawer side panels 1, wherein the drawer side panel 1 shown above has a first height and the drawer side panel 1 shown below has a second height that differs from the first height, wherein exactly one catch device 6 for receiving a front fitting 5 is arranged within each of the two drawer side panels 1. The positions of the catch devices 6 can be identified via the openings in the drawer side panel 1 for releasing the catch device 6 or for adjusting the position between the catch device 6 and at least a part of the front fitting 5.

[0085] The two catch devices 6 are arranged in different vertical positions 36, 37 relative to a lower edge 35 of the respective drawer side wall 1, wherein the catch devices 6 (apart from a dimensioning of the support 7 or, if applicable, an orientation of the force storage 21) are identically designed and are configured to fix the same front fitting 5.

[0086] In the comparison of the two identical front panels 2, it can be seen that the same front panel 2 can be used to be attached at a different position on the high drawer side wall 1 in order to increase the stability of the arrangement.

[0087] The vertical offset of the two locking devices 6 corresponds to 32 mm, preferably with offsets provided in discrete steps of essentially 32 mm difference. An offset of 19 mm may alternatively be provided.

[0088] In the lower illustration of the isolated front panel 2, looking towards the side of the front panel 2 facing the drawer side wall 1, it can be seen that a drilling pattern 13 is arranged on both sides of the front panel 2 in a 32 mm grid in the vertical direction 11 for two front fittings 5. Similarly, a grid spacing of 19 mm can be selected between vertical holes 14.

[0089] Four holes 14 are provided on each side of the front panel 2 for front fittings 5, the number of holes 14 being generally arbitrary. The lowest hole 14 is spaced approximately 40 mm vertically 11 from the bottom 10 of the front panel 2.

[0090] The holes are used to fasten the front fittings 5, the front fittings 5 ​​being typically mounted by means of two fixing points 12 for the front panel 2.

[0091] Fig. 9 shows a set of three identical front panels 2, the heights of which differ from one another. Exactly two front fittings 5 ​​for catch devices 6 are mounted on each side of the front panels 2. The front fittings 5 ​​are arranged in pairs relative to a bottom surface 10 of the respective front panel 2 in different vertical positions 36, 37 and are identical in design. The position of the front fitting 5 can be selected depending on the requirements and / or the existing drawer side panel 1. An existing drilling pattern 13 can be used, and the same front fitting 5 can be used for different heights of the front panel 2 or the drawer side panel 1.

[0092] The vertical offset between the front fittings 5 ​​is approximately 32 mm in each case, although this is not absolutely necessary.

[0093] Regarding the side views, the lowest front panel 2 can have a height of approximately 600 mm, the middle front panel 2 has a height of approximately 400 mm and the uppermost front panel has a height of approximately 300 mm.

[0094] Fig. 10 shows a preferred embodiment of a fastening device 3 in two perspective views in the disassembled state (top) and in two perspective views in the assembled state (bottom), wherein in the bottom view the interior area of ​​an embodiment of a front fitting 5 is exposed.

[0095] The catch device 6 is arranged on the carrier 7 and automatically and automatically holds the front fitting 5 when a part of the front fitting 5 is inserted (see locking state in the mounted state).

[0096] The locking device 9 is designed in the form of a pivotable hook 8 as a lever, wherein the locking device 9 comprises a locking device 15 with a release device 16 for releasing the front fitting 5 from the catch device 6 .
