Description

Furniture comprising a sliding element that can be moved on a sliding profile and a guide device

Technical Field

The invention relates to an item of furniture having at least one sliding element which can be moved on a sliding profile, and having a guide profile along which at least one guide is guided, which is held on the sliding element, wherein the guide profile provides a guide for the guide in a horizontal direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the guide profile.

Background

DE102013111482 a1 discloses a guide device for sliding doors, in which guide elements fixed on the sliding door engage in downwardly open grooves of a rail. The guide element cannot be adjusted in height, and therefore the groove is configured relatively deep in order to ensure lateral coverage of the guide element. Because tolerances can occur in the vertical direction, the groove wall must be designed to be long in the vertical direction, which leads to high material requirements and conflicts with the requirement for a compact design.

DE102014114339 discloses a guide device for guiding a sliding door guided on a sliding profile, wherein a guide element that can be fastened to the sliding door can be latched or pushed onto the guide profile. Although this results in a compact design, it is nevertheless possible for sliding noises to be produced between the guide and the guide profile when there are tolerances in the vertical direction, precisely when not only horizontal guide forces, but also vertical forces are transmitted between the guide and the guide profile. Damage may occur at higher loads. For this reason, considerable assembly effort is incurred due to tolerances, since the fixing means may have to be removed and repositioned again in order to compensate for the tolerances.

Disclosure of Invention

The object of the invention is therefore to provide a piece of furniture having a guide device for guiding a sliding element that can be moved on a sliding profile, which guide device, when the design is compact, enables simple tolerance compensation and thus a better ease of assembly.

To this end, the invention proposes an item of furniture having at least one glide element which can be moved on a sliding profile, and a guide device having a guide profile along which at least one guide is guided, which is held on the glide element, wherein the guide profile provides a guide for the guide in a horizontal direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the guide profile, characterized in that the guide is held movably in the vertical direction on a mounting element which can be fixed on the glide element.

The guide device according to the invention comprises a guide profile along which at least one guide is guided linearly, wherein the guide is held in a vertically movable manner on a mounting element that can be fastened to the sliding element. Thereby, the guide can be positioned in a different height in the vertical direction with respect to the fitting element, which enables tolerance compensation in the vertical direction. Such tolerances may result from different heights on the furniture body, the weight of the glide element, the length of the glide element, or from other assembly tolerances. In any case, the positioning of the guide can be carried out flexibly with respect to the vertical movement, so that the guide bears "floatingly" in the vertical direction on the fitting element within a certain range. Such a floating bearing also ensures a smooth running movability of the guide on the guide profile, since in the horizontal direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the guide profile guiding forces can be transmitted between the guide profile and the guide, but no additional forces act in the vertical direction, since the guide element can move smoothly in the vertical direction.

Furthermore, when the movable guide protrudes below the lower end, the guide can be moved in the vertical direction by vertical movability when the sliding element is placed on the floor, up to above the lower end of the sliding element. Thus, damage to the guide or to the floor can be avoided by the guide already fitted on the sliding element.

The smooth vertical movability of the guide can be used when the sliding element can be moved in front of the furniture body, wherein the slider is fitted on the sliding element close to the upper side and the sliding profile is arranged on the furniture body on the front side in front of the top plate of the body. In this embodiment, the guide device is mounted on the sliding element close to the underside and engages with a guide profile which is arranged in front of the floor or base of the furniture carcass. The at least one guide can also be mounted on the sliding element so as to be vertically movable in a vertically stable manner close to the upper side when the sliding element is placed in the furniture carcass, wherein the guide profile can be arranged on or in the ceiling of the furniture carcass on the side facing the sliding element. In this embodiment, the sliding profile is arranged on or in the floor of the furniture carcass.

Preferably, the guide part is mounted movably on the mounting element. Alternatively or additionally, the guide element may also be mounted on the mounting element in a pivotable manner. The movement or deflection does not have to take place exactly in the vertical direction but can also take place obliquely to the vertical direction.

For simple assembly, the guide element can be latched elastically to the guide profile. For this purpose, the guide profile can have a thickened top section on the web or a groove in order to cooperate with a corresponding guide device on the guide. The provision of guidance in a horizontal direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction along the guide profile is ensured by the guide means on the guide being correspondingly form-locked with the guide profile.

In order to guide the guide piece reliably on the mounting element, a guide strip can be arranged on the mounting element, which guide strip is acted upon by the guide piece from behind (hingredifen). The mounting element can then be mounted on the rear side of the sliding element and a guide can then be inserted into the guide tab on the mounting element, wherein the guide is held on the sliding element in a displaceable manner. The guide can preferably be moved in the vertical direction up to the stop, wherein the guide is held on the mounting element in the pre-assembly position without falling to the ground.

The guide element has at least one sliding element at the end facing the guide profile, which can be positively coupled to a web of the guide profile. The configuration of the head section on the sliding element can be adapted to the cross section of the guide profile, so that the enclosure can be achieved when the guide profile cross section is external or the embedding and the rear action can be achieved when the guide profile cross section is internal. The coupling is effected here transversely to the longitudinal direction of the guide profile by elastic deformation of the head section on the sliding element.

The guide preferably has at least one sliding element which surrounds the top section on the web of the guide profile. Such sliding elements can be formed by bendable tabs or other guide elements which can be snapped onto the guide profile. The sliding element can be made of plastic or metal. Alternatively or additionally, one or more rollers may also be provided in order to ensure smooth running movement of the guide relative to the guide profile.

The guide can also be designed in multiple parts, preferably in two parts, and comprises a base body and a sliding element. The sliding element is slipped onto a horizontal web of the preferably L-shaped base body and then fixed to said web in a form-fitting and/or material-fitting and/or preferably force-fitting, very particularly preferably clamping and/or latching manner. The base body is here made of a material different from the sliding element.

In a further embodiment, an actuator which can be brought into engagement with the damper is arranged on the guide. The actuator can be provided as an additional functional element on the guide element in order to brake a movable furniture part, such as a sliding door. Alternatively or additionally, the actuator can also engage with a self-retractor or another component, for example an end stop. In this case, the actuator can have a contact surface spaced apart from the guide profile, which contact surface is oriented, for example, perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the guide profile.

In the case of a multi-part design of the guide, the actuator can also be integrated into the sliding element.

Detailed Description

The piece of furniture 1 comprises a furniture body 2 on which a rear glide element 3 and a front glide element 4 are mounted so as to be movable. For this purpose, a sliding rail 5 is fixed to a ceiling 7 of the furniture carcass 2, on which a slide 6 is movable, which slide is fixed to the front glide element 4 close to its upper side and carries the front glide element 4 in a suspended manner. The displacement of the sliding element 4 in front of the sliding element 3 can be achieved by the inverted U-shaped design of the slide 6, wherein the slide 6 can act arcuately from above on the upper side of the rear sliding element 3. Likewise, the rear sliding element 3 is also suspended on the sliding rail 5 by a slider, which is however not visible here, since the configuration of the slider does not protrude above the upper side of the sliding element 3 and is likewise fixed close to the upper side of the rear sliding element. The two top plates 7 are of approximately the same width, so that the furniture carcass 2 is separated by a middle wall, the upper side of which can be considered as the separating plane between the two top plates 7. The intermediate wall, like the side walls, also causes the weight force introduced by the sliding

elements

3, 4 on the sliding rail 5 to act on the building floor. The

glide elements

3 and 4 are guided in the region of the base plate 8 of the furniture carcass 2 near their bottom sides on the guide profile 9 in order to ensure a constant distance from the front side of the base plate 8 for the

respective glide element

3, 4 on the path of movement, so that the

glide elements

3, 4 are also guided on their bottom sides parallel to the front side of the furniture carcass 2. For this purpose, correspondingly configured guide devices are provided on the sliding

elements

3 and 4, which guide devices make it possible to maintain a constant distance to the front side of the base plate 8 for the respective sliding

element

3, 4 on the displacement path.

In fig. 2, the guide device 10 for the front sliding element 3 and the rear sliding element 4 is shown in detail in the piece of furniture of fig. 1 according to section line II-II in fig. 1. The guide profile 9 is fitted on the front side of the base 11 in the region of the base plate 8. For this purpose, the guide profile 9 has a stop section which is fixed to the base 11 and from which two

webs

90 and 91 project at a spacing in the vertical direction, each having a thickened top section 92. On the thickened top section 92 of the guide profile 9, the

displacement element

3 or 4 is guided in the longitudinal direction of the guide profile 9.

On the sliding

elements

3, 4, on the side facing the base plate 8 or the base 11, a mounting element 15 is fastened, which can advantageously be configured as a similar part. The guide 12 for the rear slide element 3 and the guide 22 for the front slide element 4 are held on the mounting element 15 so as to be movable in the vertical direction. The

guides

12 and 22 are each coupled with a top section 92 of the guide profile 9.

The guide device for the rear slide element 3 is shown in detail in fig. 4A to 4E. The mounting element 15 comprises two square, vertical strips 16 which are connected to one another by a connecting section 19. Between the slats 16, receptacles 17 for the guides 12 are formed. A guide tab 18 is provided on each slat 16 on the side facing the receptacle 17.

The guide 12 is shown in an embodiment as a die cast part, in which the drawing bevel for the die parting extends centrally in the vertical direction (indicated by the central line). The guide 12 comprises a movable retaining section which is inserted into the receptacle 17, wherein opposing vertical edges of the retaining section act from behind on the guide tab 18, as is well shown in fig. 4E, which shows a cross-sectional view along the line B-B in fig. 4B. On the holding section, the sliding element is integrally formed to project at such a distance that, after coupling with the top section 92, the sliding element 3 can also be guided on its underside parallel to the front side of the furniture carcass 2. The sliding element has a receptacle 13 and, connected thereto, two webs 14 (best seen in fig. 4C) which serve as lead-in ramps when the receptacle 13 is fitted on the top section 92. Fig. 4D also shows a latching projection 93 with a starting ramp 94, which can act resiliently from above on the connecting section 19 via two recesses, in order to be able to achieve a loss prevention after engagement on the mounting element until the mounting slide element 3 is mounted.

For assembly, the guide 12 can be positioned adjacent to the top section 92 of the guide profile 9, as this is shown in fig. 3. By means of the lead-in bevels of the webs 14, during the further approach of the sliding element 3, a vertical displacement of the guide 12 can be carried out initially during coupling with the head section 92 in order to compensate for assembly tolerances, so that then a uniform elastic bending apart of the receptacle 13 can be carried out by means of the two webs 14, in order to latch the guide 12 on the head section 92 transversely to the longitudinal extent of the sliding element 3 in the engagement direction. As a result of the receptacle 13 then being elastically bent back after being placed behind the head section 92, the guide 12 is held in the assembly position on the head section 92 in a form-fitting manner and serves to maintain a constant distance from the front side of the base plate 8 over the path of travel on the guide profile 9. Conversely, the guide 12 is held so as to be displaceable in the vertical direction relative to the mounting element 15, so that, when the holding section is moved in the vertical direction in the receptacle of the guide 12, only low frictional forces have to be overcome during the displacement of the sliding element 3 with tolerance compensation and thus a smooth running and as noiseless as possible guidance of the guide 12 along the guide profile 9 is ensured.

Fig. 5A to 5E show a guide for the front sliding element 4, which is arranged at a greater distance from the guide profile 9. The mounting element 15 corresponds to the mounting element 15 for the rear sliding element 3, preferably as a similar part. The mounting element 15 is first mounted on the rear side of the sliding element 4 by means of screws or other fastening means, wherein for this purpose corresponding openings 20 are formed in the web 16. Next, a guide piece 22, which varies with respect to the guide piece 12, is held on the mounting element 15, is configured at an angle and has a movable holding section 25, which is held on the mounting element 15, and has a holding section 26, which is configured substantially perpendicular thereto, on which a receptacle 23 for a top section 92 of the guide piece 9 and a web 24 are configured. In this connection, the guide 22 can also be latched to the top section 92 of the guide profile 9 when the engagement direction is transverse to the longitudinal extent of the sliding element 4. The movable holding section 25 acts from behind on the guide webs 18 on the mounting element 15, so that the guide piece 22 can be moved only in the vertical direction and can therefore transmit a guiding force in the horizontal direction.

Fig. 6A and 6B show two installation positions of the front slide element 4 with the guide 2. If the sliding element 4 is removed from the running rail 5 on the furniture carcass 2, it may be necessary to place the sliding element 4 on the floor 28. Next, the guide 22 can be moved upward on the fitting element 15, as shown in fig. 6A and 6B. In the raised position, the guide 22 is located above the lower end edge 27 of the plate-shaped slide element 4. Since the mounting element 15 is also arranged flush with the lower end face edge 27 of the sliding element 4 or above the lower end face edge of the sliding element, the sliding element 4 can be placed on the floor 28 without damaging the guide 22 or the floor.

Fig. 7A to 7E show a further exemplary embodiment of a guide 33 for the rear sliding element 3. The guide 33 comprises a movable retaining section, on which two upper tabs 34 and one lower tab 35 form a receptacle 36 into which a top section 92 of the guide profile 9 can be inserted. The

webs

34 and 35 are arranged offset in the longitudinal direction of the guide profile 9. The guide 33 is held so as to be displaceable in the vertical direction along the mounting element 30, which is designed as a narrow strip. The mounting element 30 comprises two openings 31 so that it can be fixed to the slide element 3 by fixing means, such as screws. The mounting element 30 furthermore has guide webs 32 on the opposite longitudinal side, which act from behind on the guide 33 by hook-shaped sections 37. The hook-shaped section 37 serves to movably mount the guide 33 on the mounting element 30 only in the vertical direction, but does not allow movement in the horizontal direction.

The guide 40 for the front slide element 4 is shown in detail in fig. 8A to 8E. The fitting element 30 corresponds to the fitting element 30 of the previous embodiment. Conversely, the guide 40 is angled and comprises a movable retaining section 41, which is retained on the mounting element 30. At an angle to this, in particular at right angles, a retaining section 42 is provided, on which two upper webs 34 and one lower web 35 are formed, which webs form a receptacle 35 between one another in order to be able to receive a top section 92 of the guide profile 9. The

webs

34 and 35 are arranged offset in the longitudinal direction of the guide profile 9, but can still be latched to the top section 92 for guiding. The guide 40 also has a hook-shaped section 37 which acts on the guide web 32 from behind.

Fig. 9 shows a further exemplary embodiment of the guide device, in which the guide profile 9 is fastened to a base 11 of the furniture carcass 2. The guide profile 9 in turn has two projecting

webs

90 and 91, on which a thickened top section 92 is correspondingly formed, which can be diamond-shaped or square-shaped in cross section. The

guides

50 and 55 are guided on the thickened top section 92 so that the

glide elements

3 and 4 provide guidance in a horizontal direction transverse to the longitudinal direction of the guide profile 9.

In fig. 10, a guide 50 for the rear slide element 3 is shown. The guide 50 is movably held on the fitting element 15, as this has been explained in the previous embodiments. Furthermore, the guide 50 comprises two upper tabs 51 and one lower tab 52, which enclose the top section 92 of the guide profile 9. Two tongues spaced apart from one another are formed on each of the

webs

51 and 52 in each case in the vertical direction, between which tongues the guide roller 53 is rotatably mounted in the bearing 54. The guide roller 53 is rotatably mounted on the tongue by means of a bearing 54. Here, the guide rollers 53 act on the

webs

51 and 52 through the recesses and can thus roll on the top section 92 of the guide profile 9, so that a smooth running guidance of the guide 50 is ensured.

In a similar manner, the guide 50 is also provided with

tabs

51 and 52, on which guide rollers 53 are each rotatably supported. The guide 50 is formed angularly with a vertical holding section 55 and a horizontal section 56, wherein the vertical holding section 55 is held displaceably on the mounting element 15. The friction force during the movement of the sliding

elements

3 and 4 can be reduced by using the guide rollers 53.

Fig. 12 shows a variant embodiment in which the guide profile 9 is fastened to the base 11 of the furniture carcass 2, wherein the projecting

webs

90 and 91 are no longer of linear, but rather of angled design and have a thickened top section 92 extending in the vertical direction at the end. On top section 92, guide 60 for rear slide element 3 and guide 65 for front slide element 4 are guided.

As fig. 13 and 14 show, the guide 60 has a guide tab 61 which acts on the mounting element 15 from behind the guide tab 18 in order to establish a vertical displaceability on the mounting element 15. The guide 60 furthermore has a holder 62 for two horizontally arranged

guide rollers

63 and 64, which surround a top section 92 on the guide profile 9 and roll on the surface of the top section 92, wherein the

guide rollers

63 and 64 are mounted so as to be rotatable about a vertical axis.

In a similar manner, a receptacle with two

guide rollers

63 and 64 is provided on the guide 65, wherein the guide 65 is held on the mounting element 15 so as to be movable in the vertical direction.

Fig. 15A to 15E show a further exemplary embodiment of the guide device, in which the mounting element 70 can be fixed on the rear side of the sliding

element

3 or 4, wherein the guide 71 is no longer movably, but rather pivotably supported on the mounting element 70. For this purpose, an opening 73 for forming a shaft is provided on the mounting element 70, which shaft engages in an opening 72 on the guide 71. The guide 71 is designed as a lever and has a substantially U-shaped sliding element 74, on which two spreading lugs 75 are integrally formed and which can be latched onto a top section 92 of the guide profile 9.

The mounting element 70 is substantially plate-shaped and comprises a recess 76 having an upper stop 77 and a lower stop 78. The guide 71 is at least partially inserted into the recess 76 and can be pivoted between the two stops 77 and 78 about a shaft 80 formed at the

openings

72 and 73. The guide 71 is likewise of plate-shaped design and comprises steps, so that the individual sections are arranged in different planes. Thereby, the end section can be inserted into the outer section of the fitting element 70 with the opening 72. In the region of the recess 76, the mounting element 70 comprises a curved guide strip 79 which is acted upon from behind by the edge of the guide 71 in the mounted position. Thereby, the guide 71 is prevented from being pulled out in the axial direction of the shaft 80 configured at the

openings

72 and 73. In the region of the shaft 80, the guide 71 is covered by a part of the fitting element 70, and on the opposite side the guide 71 acts from behind on the guide tab 79.

Fig. 16A and 16C show that the guide 71 is configured as a lever and has an opening 72 for forming the shaft 80 on one side and a U-shaped sliding element 74 on the opposite side. Here, the sliding element 74 projects in the axial direction of the pivot shaft 80, wherein the distance in the axial direction of the pivot shaft determines whether the guide 71 for the front sliding element 4 or the rear sliding element 3 can be inserted.

Fig. 17 shows a guide device, wherein the guide profile 9' is fixed on the front side of the base 11. The guide profile 9' has two parallel grooves, which are delimited by tabs 95. Here, a lead-in chamfer 96 is formed on each web 95 towards the outside. Such that the groove has a tapered neck section. The webs 34' of the guide 33 can be latched into the above recesses, wherein for this purpose a hook 35' is formed on the end face of each web 34', which hook acts at the recess from behind on the insertion ramp 96.

In a similar manner, the guide 40 'for the front sliding door 4 is also fixed on the guide profile 9'. The guide 40' has a vertical section 41, which supports the mounting element 30 already explained above in a vertically displaceable manner. For this purpose, the guide 40' has a vertical section 41 and a horizontal section 42, wherein a web 34' is integrally formed on the horizontal section 42, on which web a hook 35' is formed. The guide 40 'can thus be latched on the groove of the guide profile 9'.

Fig. 18 shows a guide 33' having three webs 34', each of which has a hook 35 '. The hook 35 'is provided projecting upwards or downwards in order to snap-lock onto the groove of the guide profile 9'. Instead of three webs 34', only two webs or more than three webs 34' can also be provided.

In a similar manner, the guide element 40 'can be latched to the guide profile 9', wherein three lugs 34 'are likewise provided, each having an end-side hook 35' that can be fastened to the groove.

Fig. 20 shows a further embodiment of the piece of furniture, in which the sliding element 3 is supported on the base plate 8 of the furniture carcass and is guided in the upper region. One or more sliding rollers 47 are therefore provided on the sliding element 3 in the lower region, said sliding rollers rolling on a sliding rail 5 ″ which is fixed to the base plate 8. The sliding rollers 47 are each rotatably mounted on a slide 48, which is fixed to the sliding element 3.

In the upper region, a guide 45 is provided, which is held displaceably on the mounting element 30. The guide 45 is of tab-shaped design and has a bendable tab on the upper side, each tab having a hook 46 which can be snapped into a groove on the guide profile 9 ″. For this purpose, the groove has inwardly directed webs on the guide profile 9 ″ so that a tapered neck section is likewise formed, which can be acted on from behind by the hook 46.

Fig. 21 shows the guide 45 in an upwardly projecting position, the mounting element 30 projecting on the underside of the guide 45.

Fig. 22 and 23 show a guide 103 which can be fastened to the mounting element 100 on the sliding element 3. The guide 103 is designed in two parts, comprising a base body 109 and a sliding element 108, wherein the base body 109 is designed in this exemplary embodiment as an L-shaped angle. The mounting element 100 comprises two openings 101 spaced apart from each other, which can be fixed to the slide element. The mounting element 100 is substantially rectangular in plan view and is configured in cross section like a T, wherein the opposing longitudinal sides of the smaller-area T102 can be slid guided in the vertical direction on the inner longitudinal side of the recess 104, so that the guide 103 is movable in the vertical direction relative to the mounting element 100. The base 109 of the guide 103 has a vertical arm, on which the strip-shaped recess 104 is formed, and a horizontal arm 105, on which two openings 106 for fastening the sliding element 108 are provided. The sliding element 108 is slipped onto the arm 105, the tab 107 being inserted into a corresponding receptacle on the sliding element 108 on the arm 105. Furthermore, a latching tab 110 is provided on the sliding element, which engages with a projection into an opening 106 on the arm 105, as is also shown in fig. 23A to 23E. In this case, the projection of the latching tab 110 is first deflected when the sliding element 108 is pushed onto the arm 105 before said projection snaps into the opening 106 in a springing manner when the predetermined position is reached.

Furthermore, the sliding element 108 comprises a guide 12 with a receptacle 13 which is surrounded by two webs 14, wherein the receptacle 13 is configured as already shown in fig. 2 and 3. The guide 103 with the receptacle 13 can be latched to the guide profile 9 in order to guide the sliding

element

3 or 4 along the guide profile 9.

Fig. 24 shows a modified guide element 103, in which the sliding element 108 is not fastened to the arm 105 in a snap-fit manner, as in fig. 22 and 23, but is fastened by means of a screw 111. Furthermore, the embodiment of fig. 24 corresponds to the embodiments of the two preceding figures. It goes without saying that instead of screws, other removable or non-removable fastening means can be used for fastening the sliding element 108 to the arm 105 of the base body 109.

Fig. 25A to 25C show a further exemplary embodiment, in which the guide 103 is mounted movably on the mounting element 100. The sliding element 108 is in turn provided with a receptacle 13 with a tab 14 for latching on the guide profile 9, as is shown in fig. 22 and 23. Furthermore, an actuator 112 is provided on the sliding element 108, which actuator has a contact surface 113 oriented substantially perpendicularly to the longitudinal direction of the guide profile 9, which contact surface can engage with a damping element, a self-drive or a stop. In the present exemplary embodiment, the actuator 112 is angled and is fastened with one end to the sliding element 108, wherein a fastening means 114, for example a rivet or a screw, engages into the actuator 112. A contact surface 113 is formed on the other arm. It is also conceivable for the actuator 112 to be integrally formed on the sliding element 108.

In fig. 26, a damper 115 is provided on the guide profile 9, which damper has a damper housing and a damping cylinder 116 which can be moved relative thereto by means of a piston rod 118, on the end side of which a ram 117 is provided. In fig. 26A, only the damper 115 is shown, whereas in fig. 26B the damper 115 is actuated by the actuator 112 of the guide element 103. The damping cylinder 116 is pressed into the housing of the damper 115 by the actuator 112, and only the push rod 117 is also arranged outside the housing. The sliding

elements

3, 4 are thus correspondingly braked during the pressing-in of the damping cylinder 116. The guide element 103 can therefore be used in order to fulfill other functions, in particular in order to engage with the buffer 115, the self-retractor or the stop by means of the actuator 112.

In the exemplary embodiment shown, the respective guide element is held on the mounting element so as to be displaceable or pivotable, in order to be able to execute a vertical movement. The guide does not have to be exactly vertically displaceable, but can also be held on the mounting element so as to be displaceable or pivotable at an angle to the vertical.

The maximum movement of the guide is preferably limited by an upper stop and a lower stop. However, it is also possible to provide only one lower stop or only one upper stop or even no stop for moving the guide element relative to the mounting element.
