Description

State of the art

In the furniture sector, furniture is known which has a drawer which can be moved relative to a body, a drawer front component being attached to drawer side parts via a drawer front connecting device. The drawer front is preferably detachably or interchangeably attachable to the two drawer side parts.

Fastening the drawer front to the drawer side parts in the area of the front end faces of the two drawer side parts, in particular if the fronts are heavy or large, requires skill or is often difficult. In addition, high forces must be absorbed by the connecting device in the connected state.

Previous drawer front connecting devices are also complicated to manufacture or have many parts and require a comparatively large free space on the two drawer side parts, so that satisfactory solutions are not available for all drawer designs.

Object and advantages of the invention

The object of the present invention is to provide an improved drawer front connecting device of the type described in the introduction, in particular with regard to an economically advantageous production and a simplified assembly situation when assembling a drawer front for differently designed drawer side parts.

This task is solved by the independent claims.

The dependent claims address practical and advantageous developments of the invention.

Object and advantages of the invention

The invention is based on a drawer front connecting device for connecting a drawer front to a drawer side part, comprising a front connector that can be attached to the drawer side part and a hanging component that can be attached to the drawer front, the hanging component being attachable to the front connector, in order to establish a connection state of the drawer front with the drawer side part to set up. The hanging component and the front connector are preferably releasably pluggable, which is advantageously done without tools.

Since a drawer generally comprises two identical drawer side parts, two drawer side parts or a left and a right drawer side part are assumed below in relation to the assembly of the drawer front. A drawer front connecting device according to the invention is present on each of the two drawer side parts.

The drawer front can accordingly be connected to the two drawer side parts or to the remaining part of the drawer via two identical or corresponding drawer front connecting devices. Correspondingly, two suspension components are attached to the drawer front, which belong to the two or the left-hand and the right-hand drawer front connecting device.

The front connector is coordinated in such a way that it can be accommodated in a front area of the drawer side part, preferably sunk, to a front level predetermined by the side part front edges. On the drawer side part, for. B. a matching recording with a recording area available. The front connector and the hanging component preferably each consist of a metal material or are preferably each formed as a sheet metal component. This is compared to e.g. B. casting trained component advantageous. The front connector is designed in particular for attachment to a drawer side part designed as a hollow chamber frame or from a bent sheet metal component.

The front connector and the hanging component preferably have an at least approximately the same height, for example a height of approximately 50 millimeters. This also drawer fronts with a comparatively low height of less than z. B. 15-20 centimeters operable.

The width of the hanging component is, for example, approximately 15 to 20 millimeters and the width of the front connector is only a few millimeters less, for example. B. between 12 and 17 millimeters.

Preferably, are at least one part of a total height of the hanging component or z. B. in a vertically upper region and a vertically lower region of the hanging component two projecting flanks or hanging component flanks are present. The hanging component flanks are spaced at an angle to a base surface of the hanging component in the width direction or are formed opposite one another thereon. The flanks protrude in particular from the base in one direction to the front connector.

In the height between the upper and the lower hook-in component flanks, there are preferably no sections of the front connector that protrude on the back of the hook-in component or only very slightly. This is advantageous for the compact connection with the front connector and in terms of material savings.

The essence of the invention is that the front connector has an upper ramp and a lower ramp, the ramps being spaced apart in a vertical direction of the front connector, the upper ramp comprising an upper elongated support surface and the lower ramp comprising a lower elongated support surface, so that in a final assembly state of the hanging component on the front connector, the upper supporting surface serves to support an upper supporting section on the hanging component and the lower supporting surface serves to support a lower supporting section on the hanging component, the upper supporting section along the upper one being used to connect the drawer front to the drawer side part The ramp can be slid downwards and the lower support section can be slid down the lower ramp until the final assembly state of the hanging component on the front connector is reached, with a hanging contour on the front connector in the area I the lower ramp and with a raised section on the hanging component in the area of the lower supporting section, so that in a pre-assembly position the hanging component is hooked onto the front connector in such a way that the lower supporting section and the raised section are supported on the hanging contour, the hanging component with the upper one Support section is spaced from the front connector in the area of the upper ramp, and the suspension contour is coordinated such that in the preassembly position at least the elevation section is in contact with the suspension contour in such a way that the lower support section is secured against slipping down along the lower ramp. In the pre-assembly position, both the lower support section and the elevation section preferably come to bear against the hanging contour. The elevation section is preferably coordinated such that a positioning of the hanging component and front connector, in particular laterally or in the width direction of the drawer front, is achieved in a guided manner. In practice, when moving the drawer front, a section of the raised section is guided along a counter section on the hanging contour, e.g. B. in the millimeter range until the exact or necessary for the pre-assembly position of the drawer front on the drawer side parts is reached. For this purpose, the elevation section and the hanging contour are also designed and additionally for the self-supporting support of the drawer front on the drawer side parts in the exact pre-assembly position then achieved. The advantage is that installation is easier for the fitter, especially with comparatively large and / or heavy drawer fronts.

The pre-assembly position enables a statically determined mounting or support of the drawer front on the drawer side parts. It is advantageous that the weight of the drawer front means that the hook connection is highly stable in a self-acting manner. No additional force introduction or clamping in the mechanism is advantageously required in order to stabilize or secure the preassembly position.

The drawer front is preferably supported in several places on the remaining parts of the drawer in the self-locking preassembly position. On the one hand, support is provided via the hanging component fastened to the drawer front, in that the lower support section and the raised section with the hanging contour lie against the front connector, and on the other hand, by a section of the inside of the drawer front, the section below the hanging component being present on a counter section , preferably at an end front edge of the drawer side part on which the front connector is attached. This prevents the drawer front from sliding down and / or tipping away.

In the pre-assembly position, the hanging component remains stationary and thus the drawer front on the drawer side parts with the respective front connector. The drawer front is oriented obliquely to the vertically aligned front connector or to the vertical end face of the drawer side parts. If the drawer front is at an angle, the upper part of the drawer front or the upper support section is away from the upper ramp. The self-holding rest position of the drawer front in the pre-assembly position is based in particular on the effect of gravity or the weight of the drawer front acting on the hanging component. The opposing forces or moments are provided on the furniture or the furniture body which is firmly on the floor.

The front connector preferably has at least two connector plates aligned in parallel and interconnected, which are spaced apart in a width direction of the front connector. The connector plates are preferably symmetrical, in particular mirror-symmetrical to a mirror plane between the two connector plates.

The two connector plates of the front connector are preferably firmly connected to one another, for example by a rivet or a Clinch connection or screwed or welded together.

It is advantageous if the hanging contour has a contour section which is designed to match the hanging component in such a way that, starting from the preassembly position, the hanging component can be moved towards the front connector with its upper end, with up to a contact of the upper support section with the front connector lower support section is secured against slipping down along the lower ramp by the lower support section and / or the elevation section abutting the contour section of the suspension contour. This makes assembly easier. The fuse is preferably retained at least until the upper support section reaches the upper ramp. In particular, the contour section forms a bearing or a pivot bearing for the hanging component on the front connector for a relative movement of the hanging component on the front connector, and thus for the drawer front on the rest of the drawer in relation to the preassembly position. After the drawer front has been attached to the two drawer side parts, that is to say in the preassembly position, the fitter can let go of the drawer front, which rests stably, which is particularly advantageous in the case of a comparatively heavy drawer front. The drawer front remains aligned and supported on the rest of the drawer. As a rule, the drawer front is mounted with the drawer fixed to a furniture body via rail guides.

The lower support section and / or the elevation section are supported such that the lower support section cannot slide down the lower ramp. It is advantageous that the lower support section is already positioned immediately adjacent to or close to the lower ramp. Only a release state has to be reached in which the downward slide then takes place automatically. This only requires a comparatively small adjustment movement of the drawer front, e.g. a pivoting and / or lifting movement of the drawer front until the position in the release state is reached, so that the suspension component with the lower support section comes out of the support position on the contour section and can slide down along the lower ramp when the release state is reached. Simultaneously with the release state of the lower support section, the upper support section comes to the point of the upper ramp at which the upper support section slides down along the upper ramp. The slides take place automatically or with weight support without the intervention of the fitter.

It is also advantageous that the suspension contour has a contour section, the contour section being upstream of the lower ramp, based on an insertion direction of the lower support section on the lower ramp. The upstream contour section preferably has sections with different spatial orientations. The contour section has in particular a section on which the lower support section rests supported in the preassembly position and / or a vertical section, for. B. a vertically aligned, frontal portion on the front connector, on which the elevation portion is only in the horizontal direction. With the upcoming elevation section, the drawer front is secured against swinging down or away from the drawer side parts. In the preassembly position, the elevation section is supported on the upstream contour section or on the upstream contour section, the elevation section comes into contact with the hanging component. The hanging contour or the contour section preferably provides a two-point support for the lower support section on the one hand and the elevation section on the other hand. The upstream contour section preferably comprises a partial area of a front, in particular upright or vertical, front or narrow side of the front connector or the at least one connector plate of the front connector. This part of the contour section is preferably adjoined by a further part of the contour section, which runs inwards from the end face and extends to the beginning of the lower ramp.

According to a preferred variant, it is advantageous for the suspension contour to have a contour section which is provided with a depression which serves to support the lower support section in the preassembly position.

This ensures a stable attachment of the drawer front to the drawer side parts in the pre-assembly position. With the recess, the correct position of the lower support section on the contour section is promoted in the pre-assembly position and an unwanted removal of the lower support section from this position is made more difficult because resistance due to the recess has to be overcome for this. In particular, in addition to the support point for the elevation section, the depression also generates a suitably coordinated support point for supporting the lower support section in the template position. In particular, the contour section serves to support the lower support section on the underside and to support the elevation section. The contour section is preferably located in front of the lower ramp, viewed in the insertion direction when the lower support section is brought up to the lower ramp. The lower ramp preferably adjoins the contour section in the insertion direction, preferably adjoins the Immediately deepen the lower ramp. As soon as the lower support section leaves the depression in the insertion direction, the lower support section can slide down along the lower ramp.

The contour section is designed in particular as an upwardly open depression to adjacent areas. The depression is preferably matched to the outer shape or size of the lower support section. The depression is concave or z. B. trough-like in a convex or cylindrical outer shape of the lower support section.

The contour section is preferably matched to the lower support section in such a way that in the preassembly position in which the lower support section is supported on the contour section or the recess, a pivoting or rotating bearing of the lower support section is set up on the front connector. With the swivel bearing, the hanging component and thus the drawer front, starting from the pre-assembly position, with its upper part spaced apart from the drawer side parts can be swiveled in the direction of the front connector or towards the front end of the two drawer side parts. The respective upper support section of the hanging components thus comes into contact with the upper ramp of the associated front connector on the respective drawer side part. Subsequently, the upper and thus the lower support section on the respective associated ramp can slide down until the drawer front is in the final assembly state of the drawer.

The contour section is preferably designed to match the lower support section and the elevation section such that when the drawer front is pivoted upwards, the elevation section has the effect that the hanging component is displaced upwards and the entire drawer front is thus raised slightly, for example in the millimeter range. This takes place to such an extent that the upper support section reaches the beginning of the upper ramp or possibly comes into contact beforehand with a run-up slope which continues the upper support section upwards until the upper ramp is reached.

Another advantageous modification is characterized in that the hanging contour has a contour section with a leading edge of the front connector, the leading edge extending in a width direction of the front connector. The leading edge, which is formed, for example, by a component edge of the front connector, is preferably present between a region of the suspension contour, which is in front of the lower ramp, and a vertical end face of the front connector. The leading edge is preferably a front edge on the front connector. In the area of the leading edge, the elevation section is supported in the template position. From there, the elevation section moves tangentially upwards, while the hanging component is pivoted towards the front connector or the drawer front against the drawer side parts. The swivel bearing encompasses the lower support section on the suspension contour. When swiveling up, the drawer front is lifted up relative to the front connector or the drawer side parts, in accordance with the movement of the elevation section on the leading edge upwards. The hanging contour is coordinated so that the elevation section is raised so far that the maximum elevation is determined when the leading edge is reached. When the leading edge is overcome, the elevation section can move inwards in the direction of the lower ramp. The lower support section on the lower ramp thus slants downward and at the same time or identically the upper support section along the upper ramp, since the upper support section also reaches the top or foremost position of the upper ramp in a coordinated manner. From this moment on, the downward sliding takes place automatically, with the drawer front reaching the final assembly position at the end of the sliding movement. This is predefined by the inside of the drawer front abutting the front sides of the drawer side parts.

The extent of the leading edge is preferably predetermined by a width dimension of the front connector. If the front connector comprises two connector plates, a guide edge for the elevation section is preferably present on each connector plate in accordance with the width of the connector plate, with an associated elevation section belonging to each connector plate or to each guide edge of the respective connector plate. Then the elevation section preferably also comprises two elevation subsections.

Another advantage is realized in that a run-up slope of the upper ramp is arranged upstream for guiding the upper support section in the direction of the upper ramp. The inclination of the run-up slope is preferably oriented at an angle to the inclination of the upper ramp in the direction of travel. Thus, at the end of the swiveling-in movement of the drawer front from the hanging or pre-assembly position, it is guided in a precisely supported manner and at the same time is displaced upwards to an upper end of the upper ramp. For this, the run-up slope leads to the beginning of the upper ramp, with the opposite slope to the slope of the ramp. Viewed from the side, the ramp and the ramp slope form an angular shape or a saddle roof shape, with the ramp one roof side and the ramp slope the other roof side forms up to a highest point or up to a vertex line in the contact area of the ramp with the ramp. When the drawer front is swung open, the upper support section slides slightly along the run-up slope up to the apex line and then automatically slides or slides down along the upper ramp. Simultaneously with the sliding of the upper support section downwards, the lower support section also slides down along the lower ramp until the final assembly position of the hanging component on the front connector or the drawer front is reached on the remaining part of the drawer.

The hanging contour advantageously has a first contour section and a second contour section, the first contour section serving to support the lower support section in the preassembly position and the second contour section serving to support the elevation section in the preassembly position, the first and second contour sections being oriented differently in space . The second contour section is preferably designed as a guide edge which extends in its length in the width direction of the front connector. A first stop against movement in a first stop direction can be provided with the first contour section and a second stop against movement in a second stop direction with the second contour section. For example, in the pre-assembly position, the lower support section is supported in the height direction of the front connector or downward on the first contour section and the elevation section is supported in a depth direction of the front connector or horizontally in the direction of the front of the front connector.

The first and the second contour section are, for example, contiguous or adjacent. Both contour sections are preferably formed by a narrow side of the front connector, or in the case of two connector plates by a part of the respective narrow or front side.

According to an advantageous embodiment, the suspension contour has a first contour section and a second contour section, the first contour section serving to support the lower support section in the preassembly position and the second contour section serving to support the elevation section in the preassembly position, the first and second contour sections in the depth direction of the front connector are spaced apart. A double or double support of the hanging component on the front connector and thus the drawer front on the drawer side part is thus advantageously realized in the template position. The second contour section is preferably designed as a guide edge which extends in its length in the width direction of the front connector. Since two drawer side parts each interact with a hanging component, the suspended drawer front is supported on the remaining drawer on the left drawer side by a two-point bearing and supported on the right drawer side by another two-point bearing in the same or identical manner. The first and second contour sections are preferably offset from one another in the depth direction of the front connector and in the width direction of the front connector.

An advantage is such that the hanging contour is designed such that in the preassembly position the hanging component is supported on the front connector via a contact with the lower support section and via a contact with the elevation section and via a contact with a further component section of the hanging component. The further component section on the suspension component is advantageously an edge of the suspension component running in the width direction of the suspension component, e.g. B. a lower edge of the hanging component.

This enables an even more stable pre-assembly position that is particularly effectively secured against swiveling away. The support is carried out in the manner of a triple or three-point support. Alternatively, the third or further contact can be set up during assembly by contacting the drawer front on the respective drawer side parts.

It is also advantageous if the elevation section comprises two elevation sections separated in the width direction of the hanging component by a distance. This makes the pre-assembly or hanging position of the drawer front even easier and more stable to set up.

The two elevation sections are preferably configured on the inside of opposing side flanks of the suspension component, preferably in alignment with one another. It is also advantageous if the two elevation sections each have a flat or blunt end face. The longitudinal axes of the elevation sections are preferably parallel to the longitudinal axis of the lower support section.

The two elevation sections are preferably present in alignment with one another. Opposing free ends of the two elevation sections each have a preferably flat or blunt end face. In between there is a material-free area. The opposite survey sections are z. B. formed as a stud stub. The two elevation sections are preferably towards the rear towards a base side of the suspension component offset and offset upwards with respect to the lower support section.

The invention also relates to a drawer with a drawer front and a drawer side part, a drawer front connecting device according to one of the designs described above being provided.

The actuator 24th reaches for this across openings in the outer housing which are matched to it 20th , the inner casing 21 , the two connector plates 26 , 27 and the sliding element 31 .

The two connector plates 26 , 27 are aligned parallel to each other and in a width direction B of the front connector 22 over a distance a (s. 5 ) spaced apart from one another over the predominant extent and firmly connected to one another by elements not shown in concrete terms, such as, for example, two transverse bolts. In the upper area of the front connector 22 is a plate-shaped spacer 64 with the width a between the connector plates 26 and 27 available. The longitudinal axes 32 the elements or the cross bolt are in 4th indicated by dashed lines, each element with its two ends on the associated connector plate 26 respectively. 27 is firmly connected. The two elements are preferably parallel in the width direction B or in particular parallel to the bearing element 30th aligned.

In a height direction H of the front connector 22 spaced from each other are an upper ramp 33 and a lower ramp 34 on the front connector 22 available. The level ramps 33 , 34 are in a depth direction T of the front connector 22 slanted and towards or away from a front 35 of the front connector 22 sloping towards the back or towards a back 36 of the front connector 22 sloping.

A level El of the upper ramp 33 is parallel to a plane E2 the lower ramp 34 (see 6 ).

The top ramp 33 has an upper narrow side 33a the first connector plate 26 and an upper narrow side 33b the second connector plate 27 on. The narrow sides 33a and 33b lie in the common spanned room level El.

The lower ramp points accordingly 34 a lower narrow side 34a the first connector plate 26 and a lower narrow side 34b the second connector plate 27 on. The narrow sides 34a and 34b lie in the common spanned room level E2 , which is parallel to the room plane El.

The top two narrow sides 33a and 33b are at a distance a from each other in the width direction B spaced, as well as the two lower narrow sides 34a and 34b .

The top two narrow sides 33a , 33b form a two-lane support 39 for the upper support section 37 of the hanging component 25th and the two lower narrow sides 34a and 34b form a two-lane support 40 for the lower support section 38 of the hanging component 25th .

The support sections 37 and 38 are preferably the same or identical. The support sections are preferred 37 , 38 formed as a pin-like or elongated components, here for example each as a pin or bolt with a concave or cylindrical outer shape. Other shapes such as B. a polygonal outer shape of the support sections 37 , 38 are possible.

As explained in more detail below, slipping when connecting the drawer front 15 with the drawer side panels 17th , 18th the upper support section 37 along the top two narrow sides 33a , 33b the support 39 diagonally downwards in the direction of sliding R (see 10th ). The lower support section slides accordingly or simultaneously 38 along the two lower narrow sides 34a , 34b the support 40 when connecting the drawer front 15 with the drawer side panels 17th , 18th diagonally downwards in the direction of sliding R or something in the depth direction T and down against the height direction H . The sliding movement is due to the weight of the drawer front 15 supported.

The successive steps when assembling the drawer front 15 on the rest of the drawer 2nd or the two drawer side parts 17th , 18th are based on the 6 to 11 explained.

The drawer front 15 with the attached components 25th is inclined obliquely to the vertical, which is parallel to the height direction H runs, with the lower area of the drawer front 15 ahead of the drawer side panels 17th , 18th with the respective front connectors 22 introduced. In the first step, it is important that the fitter pulls the drawer front 15 handles so that the lower support section 38 to the respective lower ramp 34 or in the area of the lower ramp 34 existing hanging contour 50 is introduced (s. 6 ).

In addition, the interaction of the suspension component is particularly important 25th with the associated front connector 22 on the drawer side part 17th received, with the same for the other suspension component 25th on the drawer front 15 and the other drawer side part 18th with the existing front connector 22 applies.

Accordingly, the lower support section 38 in the area of the lower ramp 34 on the hanging contour 50 with the contour section 51 (see 5 ) in the vicinity of the lower ramp 34 on the front connector 22 introduced. The upper support section 37 is due to the oblique orientation of the Drawer front 15 further away from the upper ramp 33 (see 6 ).

The lower ramp 34 is by a slit-shaped cutout 52 in the connector plates 26 and 27 educated. This is the lower ramp 34 to the front 35 of the front connector 22 open so the lower support section 38 in the laterally aligned cutouts 52 is threadable. The drawer front 15 comes with the lower end of the inside 15a in the area of a lower front edge 17b of the drawer side part 17th in contact (see 7 ).

Then the drawer front 15 slightly lowered, against the height direction H . The support section sits 38 in the recess 54 on. This ensures correct spatial alignment of the drawer front 15 on the drawer side panels 17th , 18th favored. The support section 38 is in particular aligned so that the longitudinal axis of the support section 38 runs horizontally.

The lower support section 38 comes with further lowering or moving the drawer front 15 towards an end 53 the lower ramp 34 on one of the lower ramps 34 upstream deepening 54 the hanging contour 50 in supportive contact. The deepening 54 is, for example, due to a trough-like dent on the respective narrow side of the two connector plates 26 , 27 educated. At the same time, the survey sections arrive 56 , 57 at the leading edge 61 or slightly below on a support surface of the contour section 51 the hanging contour 50 in Appendix. This supports the drawer front 15 in a self-holding rest position or in a pre-assembly position of the drawer front 15 on the drawer side panels 17th , 18th from. The lower support section comes 38 and the two survey subsections 56 , 57 in a supporting system on the front connector 22 and the inside 15a the drawer front 15 in a supporting system on the drawer side parts 17th , 18th . The drawer front 15 therefore does not have to be held in the pre-assembly position from outside or by a fitter.

Then the drawer front 15 in the direction R3 or swiveled into the vertical orientation by pressing against a front of the drawer front 15 with a force F (see 9 ).

The swivel movement in the direction R3 takes place around a swivel axis S caused by the contact of the lower support section 38 at or in the area of the recess 54 is specified, with the course of the pivoting of the drawer front 15 in the direction R3 the contact point shifts somewhat and the lower support section 38 moves out of the depression towards the lower ramp 34 what in 8th and 9 can be seen. 8th shows the moment of transition of the support section 38 from the deepening 38 to the ramp 34 . With the pivoting, the two are at the leading edge 61 adjacent sections of the survey 56 , 57 tangential or above around the leading edge 61 led, this being a slight lifting of the drawer front 15 upwards or in the height direction H causes. The inside 15a the drawer front 15 meanwhile remains in contact with the front of the drawer side parts 17th respectively. 18th .

The upper support section 37 approaches with the pivoting of the drawer front 15 in the direction R3 one of the ramp 33 upstream bevel 58 at.

The lower support section 38 hits when leaving the deepening 54 on the nose-like projection 29b of the sprung locking element 29 , with the projection 29b in the neckline 52 protrudes. Under the weight of the drawer front 15 becomes the lead 29b from the lower support section 38 against the spring force of the spring 28 pushed away so that the lower support section 38 along or on the lower ramp 34 diagonally downwards in the direction of sliding R can slip. The upper support section 38 reached diagonally upwards along the run-up slope after the guided movement 58 the upper ramp 33 and glides along or on the upper ramp 33 diagonally downwards in the direction of sliding R . The top two narrow sides 33a , 33b the upper ramp 33 provide a two-lane upper support surface or a two-lane guideway for the upper support section 37 ready. The survey subsections 56 , 57 are over the leading edge 61 get out and are contact-free from the hanging contour 50 in the area of the cutout 52 .

According to the ramps 33 , 34 is the drawer front 15 specified a downward movement. The sliding movement takes place automatically due to the weight of the drawer front 15 and / or supported by the fitter.

The lower support section 38 slides on the lower ramp 34 or on the two lower narrow sides 34a , 34b , which also has a two-lane lower support surface or two-lane guideway for the lower support section 38 provide.

The connecting movement of the hanging components 25th relative to the front connectors 22 and thus the drawer front 15 towards the front of the two drawer side parts 17th , 18th is not through one for example at the top Support section 37 and / or for example the lower support section 38 acting stop limits what in particular 11 clarifies what is going in the sliding direction R of the upper support section 37 and the lower support section 38 behind the support sections 37 and 38 the associated ramp 33 respectively. 34 extends a little further or the respective upper narrow sides 33a , 33b and the respective lower narrow sides 34a , 34b . Rather, the aforementioned sliding or connecting movement is mechanically limited in that the inside 15a the drawer front 15 on the respective narrow strip-shaped end face of the drawer side parts 17th and 18th pending. It is advantageous that the narrow front end of the drawer side part 17th and the narrow front end of the drawer side part 18th lie in adjacent parallel spatial levels. In the connected state with the drawer front attached 15 on the drawer side panels 17th , 18th according to 11 is the front of the drawer side panel 17th in a z. B. Line contact with the inside 15a the drawer front 15 .

Upon reaching the connection status according to 11 is with the locking organ 29 or with the lead 29b a locking device to secure the drawer front 15 on the drawer side panels 17th , 18th furnished. The head start 29b of the locking organ 29 at the lower support section 38 on one side or on the back with the force of the spring 28 resiliently pressed into contact, so that the lower support section 38 not unintentionally up along the ramp 34 is movable or is secured, that is secured against movement in the opposite direction to the sliding direction R .

The ramp 58 is two-lane and includes a first ramp 59 and a second lead track 60 . The first lead track 59 is through a portion of the narrow side of the first connector plate 26 and the second lead track 60 is through a portion of the narrow side of the second connector plate 27 educated. The slope of the curb 59 is identical to the slope of the run-up track 60 and against the slope of the upper ramp 33 .

When swiveling the drawer front up 15 to the drawer side panels 17th , 18th it is possible that the upper support section 37 first the ramp 58 reached and then when the front of the drawer is pivoted further 15 diagonally upwards along the ramp 58 to be led. At the same time, the drawer front remains 15 supported at the bottom on the contour section 50 what about the lower support section 38 and the two survey subsections 56 and 57 he follows.
