Abstract

The invention concerns a twinned kitchen furniture system (10), in particular to be wall-mounted with or without bottom support, comprising lower, upper and hanging cupboards (18, 30), shelves (23) and special zone elements, and fixing elements and a base (15). A wall-mounting system (34, 45, 48, 29, 14) fixes the twin-assembled lower, upper and hanging cupboards, and the shelves (23), at a certain distance relative to a wall (13), and transfers the load taken from the wall (11) and/or from the base (15) system independent of the lower cupboards (18). In the space between the cupboards and the wall is located part of a door-rail system (29, 65, 66, 67, 69, 70) required for the complete vertical opening of the doors (27) above the work top (22).

Description

DESCRIPTION

Kitchen furniture system in cheek construction, especially for unconditional and / or conditional wall mounting

The invention relates to a kitchen furniture system in cheek construction, in particular for unconditional and / or conditional wall mounting, with lower, upper and wall cupboards, shelves and elements for special areas as well as fastening elements and bases.

Systems with z. B. lower, upper and wall cabinets and special areas for a stove as well as with wheelchair accessible areas for wheelchairs and also with areas for sinks etc. in individual construction are known. That is, these individual kitchen system elements, which are manufactured in individual construction, are generally complete, that is to say provided with base, side, back, front and top elements. However, this has one

Numerous disadvantages result. Thus, these elements initially require a high volume of transport and packaging, furthermore the side walls are doubled when system elements meet, which for this reason is often also made of different material qualities. Furthermore, a kitchen furniture system in individual construction proves to be not very flexible with regard to the use of space on site, because e.g. B. all elements have a flat contact area and can therefore not cut corners. Also, all elements usually protrude up to an available wall, the unevenness of which must then be covered with decorative strips. Such kitchen furniture systems are therefore not suitable to solve the object of the present invention satisfactorily.

The object of the present invention is to provide a kitchen furniture system in a cheek design, in particular for unconditional and / or conditional wall mounting, which ensures volume-saving transport, ensures an individual, also subsequent possibility of variation, optically and functionally an equalization of cabinet and Shelf elements, has a simple possibility of adaptation to walls available for assembly and eliminates a risk of injury due to the upper cabinet doors being opened.

This object is achieved in that a system for wall mounting the cheek-built lower, upper and wall cabinets and shelves at a distance from a wall and the Lastab protrusion in the wall and / or in a system independent of the base cabinets of bases initiates, the distance taking up the part of a door rail system for fully vertical opening of the doors above a work surface.

As stated, the present invention relates inter alia to a completely and / or partially wall-mounted kitchen furniture system in a cheek construction. Conditionally wall-mounted means that the cheeks are hung in wall rails, but that they rest directly or indirectly on a plinth and the vertical load transfer itself is only carried out via the plinth. The construction parts of the wall suspension and also the counterweights of the sliding door system are behind one consistently existing system wall, which is defined or formed by furniture rear walls and the panel areas. It is only broken through in the area of the movable shelves.

This construction is characterized in particular by the fact that the cheek construction is not an individual construction and as such is advantageous in the kitchen area compared to the known prior art. The individual parts can therefore be delivered on pallets, which can massively reduce the transport and packaging volume. In the known design, there is always a doubling of the side walls of the furniture. With the cheek construction, this leads to material savings and to a continuous outer and inner material quality. The base behind the invention leads to the visual impression of freedom from the base. The rear wall clearance to be provided according to the invention can be advantageous for warping installations or the like. be used. The vertically movable shelves make unfavorably located storage spaces easily accessible. The conception of different worktop depths with simultaneous integration of the past worktop areas in a shelf area that can be covered with doors means that space is used very well, with great variability. The top-mounted cupboard knees, which can be covered by doors, are an advantage because they are both available as work surfaces and can be good parking spaces for ready-to-use devices that can be easily pulled forward without height levels and just as easily stowed away again. Due to the vertical sliding doors in the top cabinet area, the annoying and Accident-prone cabinet doors advantageously avoided. Due to different cheek heights, the working heights can be varied widely. Lowered sections of the work surfaces are possible by simply hanging between two cheeks. As well

Special areas for a stove, but also areas that can be driven under, as are particularly advantageous for wheelchairs in general but also for wheelchair users.

As already stated, the system is a wall-mounted cheek construction with load transfer into the wall or in a long-ago, height and length adjustable plinth. The kitchen furniture system essentially consists of a system for wall mounting, a plinth bench, under-table bolsters with different depths, a work surface, counter-top bolsters, tall cabinet bolsters with different heights and depths, rear wall and panel systems with wall-mounted cabinet bolsters, functional elements, shelves, doors for the under-table area and doors for the table area.

The further advantageous and / or inventive features of the kitchen furniture system according to the application are first described on the basis of the essential ones

Design features discussed and then using their use in the system.

It is advantageously provided that a wall rail fastened to the wall with a base plate extended upwards and downwards towards the wall to form fastening flanges and a C-profile pointing towards the system, in which slot nuts to be inserted laterally with a central threaded bore are arranged, for receiving of the threaded bolt of a screw with which an adjustment hook provided with vertical elongated holes is screwed, the fastening flanges having through openings for wall screw connections. The wall rail is one of the individual parts of the construction elements. It essentially has the shape of a C-profile with a base plate that is expanded to form fastening flanges. The C-shaped chamber is used to accommodate slot nuts for fastening the adjustment hooks.

Advantageously, it is provided that the wall rail has two grooves in the longitudinal direction in its contact surface facing the adjustment hook, which grooves serve to accommodate webs of spacers which are provided between the wall rail and adjustment hook and in

Place the area of the threaded bolts on these. When attaching the adjustment hooks, if necessary, spacer disks, preferably plastic injection-molded parts, can be inserted between the wall profile, preferably an aluminum extruded profile, and adjustment hooks, which are accommodated in the area of the threaded bolts. Two grooves are formed in the bearing surface of the wall profile facing the spacer, into which corresponding webs of the spacers engage. If the wall is extremely uneven, the wall rails can be underlaid with spacers such as wedges.

It is advantageously provided that the adjusting hook has a rectangular plate which extends in the longitudinal direction of the rail, has at its lower edge an elongated hook which extends away from the rail and extends upwards for receiving a hook of a fastening element and the plate in its lateral side Areas two vertically extending Has elongated holes and the hook is designed such that the elongated holes are accessible. The adjustment hook consists of a plate with an upward hook and two laterally extending, elongated holes. With the elongated holes possible Höhendi references can be compensated so that no vertical loads are introduced into the wall rail. The upward hook area serves to receive a counter-rotating hook of the fastening element or part.

It is advantageously provided that a fastening element is provided between the cheeks and the adjustment hook, which has a U-shaped housing, and on a leg in its lower region via a inserted plate with a threaded hole holding a hook which engages in the adjustment hook and in its upper area on the same leg in a weld nut carries a threaded rod with a plastic plate pointing to the adjustment hook, openings in the U-legs and guide flange are provided for connection to a horizontal hollow profile and the cheeks. The fastening element consists of a substantially U-shaped housing, which is provided in its upper part with a weld nut attached to a U-leg for receiving a threaded rod. The threaded rod is used to counter the fine adjustment and has a plastic plate at the end for better clamping. In the lower part it contains devices for receiving a horizontally running hollow profile, namely openings in the U-legs and guide flanges in the base. The hollow profile carries a downward hook at one end Hook in the adjustment hook. At its other end, a plate with a threaded bore is inserted, with the aid of which it can run back and forth on a rotatable but non-adjustable threaded bolt or rod for fine adjustment of the wall distance.

It is advantageously provided that the width of the hook of the fastening element is substantially less than the distance between the screws of the adjusting hook, so that displacement is possible without having to unhook the fastening element and at the same time the screws are accessible. Adjustment hooks and fasteners are coordinated so that the hook of the fastener can be moved on the wider counterpart of the adjustment hook according to the requirements of the assembly. The screws of the adjustment hook serve as a stop. If the sliding area is insufficient, the adjustment hook must be readjusted with its screws, but the fastening element must not slide out of the hook area. The fastening element is attached directly to the side of the cheek in the under-table area. In the table area, the cheek is provided with a multifunctional profile that over

Fastening grooves for the fastener has.

It is advantageously provided that the fastening element is laterally attached to a cheek in the under-table area and above in the upper-table area

Fastening grooves with a multi-function profile, and that the multi-function profile is designed to receive a fixing rail for matching the on-table and under-table grids. Furthermore, a Fixing rail for cheek grids can be provided. It is a small rail that is inserted in the lower end of the multifunctional profile or element and that ensures that the table grid and the table grid match.

It is advantageously provided that a plurality of vertically running multifunctional profiles are provided which, in the case of a rectangular cross section, each have two guide grooves with a circular cross section and / or a swallowtail-shaped groove on two opposite sides and one of the other sides has a T-shaped groove for receiving the fixing rail has and the fourth side is open to receive a cheek or closed with a row of holes for carriers. The multi-function profile is mounted on top and wall cabinets, as well as on tall cabinets in the vicinity with top or wall cabinets and panel areas in the counter area on the narrow wall side of the cheeks. It serves to accommodate the guiding element for counterweights and vertical sliding doors. For this purpose, two guide grooves are provided on each side. A dovetail-shaped chamber is provided on each side for assembly. It can also be used to hold a displaceable or insertable form-locking part, which is used either in the case of the coupling of multifunctional profiles or for alignment, that is to say the alignment of the positions of the under-table and on-table cheek.

It is also used to fasten panels, both in connection with a cheek and, with the function of a minimal cheek, within panel areas. Also for fastening brackets in which the panels are hung become. A closed variant of the profile can be selected for this.

It is advantageously provided that a depth adjuster for the vertical alignment of the cheek edge is mounted laterally on cheeks or on the multifunctional profile, which has a sheet metal housing with a receptacle for a threaded bolt, which is slotted at one end and a plate and a slide-on spacer shoe at the other end Has plastic. The depth adjuster is an adjustable spacer for the vertical alignment of the cheek edge. It consists of a sheet metal housing with a holder for a threaded rod or bolt. The threaded rod is slotted at one end and carries a pressure distribution plate and a push-on plastic spacer on the other end. The depth adjuster is mounted on the side of the cheeks or on the multi-function profile with and without the cheek, behind the rear wall. It is required for all cheeks for under-counter, top cupboard, wall cupboard, tall cupboard and for the multifunctional profile in the panel area. The depth adjuster can be readjusted at any time.

It is advantageously provided that the rear walls are connected approximately in the middle in the vertical direction in two parts via a film hinge of a plastic profile with stop legs, the film hinge facing the wall connecting two U-shaped profile sections which accommodate the rear wall edges and a flange facing the furniture as a stop and The latching leg is extended. Different variants are now conceivable with regard to the rear wall. First, a revisable or removable rear wall. For The assembly and possible repairs of the door counterweights and the mobile shelves is a removable rear wall of advantage. This can be done according to the invention by a rear wall with a central joint. The rear wall is divided into two, at least in the areas where a revision may be necessary, and connected in the middle to a stop leg by means of a film hinge of a plastic profile. This vertically running hinge allows the rear wall to be folded in one direction, for example towards the room side, while preventing it from being folded in the other direction by the stop leg. The stop leg conceals the middle joint at the same time. This rear wall can be inserted in its groove between the top and bottom shelf in a slightly folded state, a stop on the multifunctional profile being useful and then brought into the flat position and thus fixed with shelves. Securing with grendel bolts above and below is also conceivable. The back wall must have a slight oversize and spread against the cheeks. If at the

Mounting eccentrics only after inserting the rear wall, this rear wall can ensure the perpendicularity.

It is advantageously provided that for the removal of the

Back walls Back walls with a smaller width and height than the clear dimension are used and these are kept in intermediate layers which complement the short dimension and limit the rear walls towards the wall, the intermediate layer being provided on one or two or three or four of the rear wall sides. In the variant of an insert rear wall, a rear wall is provided which is 3 to 4 mm narrower than the clear dimension between the cheeks with a lower height. At the level of In the intended position of the insert rear wall, an intermediate layer is provided on both sides, between which the rear wall cut with a slight oversize compared to the clear dimension between the intermediate layers is pressed. This will when the

Back wall prevents scratching the cheeks and the back wall can be removed if necessary. Instead of an intermediate layer on both sides, the wall of the multifunctional profile, which in this case protrudes from the cheek, can also be used for this purpose. A variant of the multi-function profile can be provided with a stop leg for inserting the rear wall.

The above constructional elements according to the application are described below with reference to an assembly description of a kitchen system according to the invention, the features of which according to the application are set out in the claims from claim 12.

To assemble the under-table area, the wall rails are first fixed with inserted adjustment hooks, the wall distance of the adjustment hooks is roughly adjusted with spacers, the first adjustment hook is fixed and the plinth is set up and aligned. The further assembly takes place continuously. Then the first under-table cheek is hooked into the first adjustment hook, aligned and secured by means of a counter. Then the underbody is first placed on the base and attached to the first cheek with eccentric connectors. Then the rear wall is brought into position and stands on the sub-floor. Now the second adjustment hook is brought into position at the distance specified by the grid provided and fixed with its screws at a roughly adjusted wall distance. Then the next cheek is hung in, pushed as far as it will go onto the underbody and rear wall and fastened to the underbody with the eccentrics or eccentric connectors. Now the top shelf is inserted and tightened to both cheeks with eccentric connectors. Now this first unit is adjusted exactly, if necessary the lock screw of the first cheek is loosened again. Finally, the counter screw of the second cheek is tightened.

The cheek is attached using a fastener attached to the side of the cheek. It is hooked in with a hook that is finely adjustable in depth, which is fixed by a counter screw after fine adjustment. This fine adjustment in depth generally only takes place when some units have been set up, but before the door is installed. To do this, the counter screws must be loosened. The entire under-table area is fully assembled in the same way. For each unit, the underbody and rear wall are first installed, then the next cheek is hung in, positioned and finally fixed after installing the top floor. The adjustment hooks should be positioned, adjusted and fixed immediately after installing the wall rail. A correction of their position is possible at any time. Then the worktops are attached.

The assembly of the On the table area, but in contrast to the under table area, the rear wall is only used after the cheeks belonging to the respective unit and the top panel have been installed. After assembling the cheeks and the top panel, the door counterweights are screwed onto their brackets.

The back wall consists of a plate that is undersized compared to the furniture cross-section. A vertically running aluminum U-profile is slidably slid on both sides, the legs of which are provided with continuous screws. The area of the screws is left blank in the rear panel. In addition, the rear wall includes a further U-profile of the same dimension, which is initially placed in the rear wall area on the worktop, with its ends coming to rest on both sides in the grooves provided for the rear wall. Now the rear wall with its collapsed side aluminum profiles is placed in the U-profile. Then the side profiles are pushed apart so that their legs engage in the side grooves of the cheeks. In this position, the side legs of the profiles are braced against each other with the help of their screws. The gap resulting from the upper undersize is then covered with a glare profile introduced from above. In two variants of the invention, two other forms of removable rear walls can be provided for revision purposes.

In the case of an arrangement over a corner, de installation of the under-table area in the corner is started, with a corner profile being provided for receiving the furniture rear wall, which is fastened between the upper and lower floors. The table area is assembled in the opposite direction, i.e. its assembly begins on the outside and ends in the corner, because any tolerance deviations in the corner can be compensated for with a fitting piece, while a kitchen cabinet element is usually provided as the end for kitchen units running over corners which no compensation is possible. Such tolerances to be compensated for in the corner can build up in particular if the open area is constructed with a different grid than the lower table area.

The wall attachment does not take any vertical

Loads and has no function for height adjustment. In the case of conditional wall mounting, it only serves to hold against horizontal loads, i.e. the tilting moment. The vertical loads are diverted via the plinth, over which the

Height adjustment is done. The wall attachment is based on two wall rails, one of which is attached just below the worktop, and the other at the height of the upper system edge. The rails are mounted directly on the wall, whereby extreme unevenness can be compensated for by intermediate layers. With the unconditional wall mounting without a plinth, the vertical loads can also be diverted into the wall.

Adjustment hooks for attaching the cheeks are attached to the wall rail, which also have the function of roughly compensating for uneven walls and deviations in the solid angle. You will be using two to two screws attached sliding blocks in the chamber of the wall rails inserted from the side. The rough adjustment is carried out with the help of spacers which are hung on the screw shafts between the adjustment hook and the wall rail. These adjustment hooks are brought into position and fixed with the two screws, whereby the spacers are clamped. Height adjustment is possible using two elongated holes. The cheeks are fastened to the cheeks during further assembly

Adjustment hook. The wall rails are always installed in such a way that any forgotten adjustment hooks can still be inserted laterally from the side.

To set up the cheeks and to divert the vertical loads, a continuous plinth with two rows of adjustable feet is provided in the entire area of the kitchen unit if the wall is attached conditionally. The entire height adjustment is carried out on the plinth. When this is complete, the plinth is the ideal assembly level. The cheeks are then placed with their underside on the plinth. The plinth can stand directly on the wall or in front of the wall. This does not matter for further assembly. Different base depths are also possible. After adjustment, the plinth can be fixed to the wall.

The base area can be used completely for base drawers, base pedestals or the like. In this case the distance between the adjustable feet can be increased. Guide elements for plinth drawers or other plinth uses can be attached to the plinth. If no other use is intended, the plinth is closed off with a plinth facing the room. A closing part is placed under the cheek for the side closure.

The cheek is fastened with the help of a fastening element attached to the side of the cheek in the under-table area, which engages with a hook pointing downwards into the hook of the adjusting hook pointing upwards. This downward-facing hook is attached to an adjustable slider to compensate for uneven walls and can be fixed with a lower screw. If necessary, the fine adjustment is made after creating a series of units. The fasteners are in the middle position and are first installed and locked. The counter must then be released to adjust.

The table cheeks have a different structure. A multifunctional profile is attached to the narrow side of the wall. Whose functions are the guide func ion for the counterweights, inclusion of a positive locking element or a stop part for the

Positioning of the table cheek, side mounting of the fastening element, with wall cupboards also of the depth adjuster and λron light elements in the panel area. The cheeks must be aligned vertically after hanging. At least the first cheek of a row must be aligned with a spirit level. The right angle required for the door systems to function is achieved by aligning the first cheek with additive coupling the other units with the help of the fixed shelves as spacers at least over a few units. To fix this angle, the underbody can be screwed to the plinth. In one variant, an adjustment of this angle with a special fitting on the base bench is also conceivable. In the other direction, each cheek must be aligned with a spirit level. A depth adjuster is used for alignment, which is supported on the wall with a threaded rod with a plate and spacer. This setting can be readjusted at any time.

Compared to conventional kitchens, the work surface generally extends to the back wall of the table area. When the doors are open, this area can then be used as a general work area or also as a storage area assigned to the work area but which can be separated with the doors. This is particularly useful for larger kitchen appliances, e.g. Coffee machine, universal food processor, mixer, deep fryer or the like While this type of use in conventional kitchens only with special furniture, e.g. Blind cabinets is possible, it can be used anywhere in the kitchen according to the invention, provided that a table cabinet is available.

This requires a special door system in the table area, which consists of two vertical sliding doors with counterweights one behind the other.

This change in usage allocation assumes, among other things, that different worktop depths are required. In many cases the usual depth of 600 mm is not necessary, then the more distant one can Area can be assigned to another use. Furthermore, if the full working surface depth is required, you can either use the niches of the top cabinets or choose a wall cabinet, or provide a wider working surface. However, it is also possible to choose a larger working surface depth when using the top cupboard, e.g. this combination in conjunction with the vertical sliding doors, which are unproblematic for the working surface, provides great flexibility for the working surface, whereby jumps in the front edge can still be avoided.

In certain functional areas, the work surface can be provided with cutouts or openings. This is especially true in the shelf area above the table. There is the option for vertically movable shelves, which then allow better use of the area behind.

The table area is in principle independent of the grid of the under table area. For design reasons, however, an attempt can be made to continue the lower cheeks at the top. Top cabinets are shelves, the area of use of which extends from the worktop upwards. They are closed off by two vertically running sliding doors and their lowest level is the worktop, except when using mobile shelves. The top cabinet cheeks are provided with a multifunctional profile. A special case of

Top cabinets are those with a movable shelf.

Wall cabinets correspond to conventional wall cabinets. They also consist of in the wall construction of the cheeks, which end halfway above the work surface. The worktop is then always available in full depth and is not interrupted by cheeks in these areas. The doors of the wall cupboards are conventional. In areas with wall cabinets, the multifunctional profile must run through to the work surface or it can be pushed. There is a panel area under the wall cabinet.

Panel areas are table areas without cupboards. Panels with suitable surfaces as visible and functional surfaces are located on the same level as the rear walls of the furniture. They are either connected to the multifunctional profile assigned to a cheek or hung in special panel profiles or cheeks, the profile representing a minimal cheek. In addition to the remaining function of fastening panel supports, the special panel profiles have a vertical row of holes on their side facing the room

Hooking of support systems through the panel butt joint. Since this use is not possible on a cheek, these profiles are provided approx. 15 to 30 cm next to the cheeks delimiting the panel zone.

There are basically two corner solutions in the under-table area: the normal corner corresponds to the arrangement of conventional corner cupboards. It consists of two side-by-side cheeks, the location of which defines an underbody and an upper floor and a corner profile that is clamped between the upper and lower floor. The corner areas can be assembled as individual items as part of the continuous assembly of the overall system, but it is also possible to assemble corner furniture and then put on the plinth.

The second corner solution corresponds to the conventional corner with a blind side, which then usually serves either to accommodate semi-circular corner carousels or other special corner uses.

These two solutions are also available in the table area. They are supplemented by two more, the blind corner and the panel corner with and without a cabinet. This

Corner solutions are available as add-on and hanging sinks. The structure of the normal corner cabinet corresponds to that of the lower corner cabinet, the depth of which corresponds to that of the table cabinets. With different widths, their selection depends on the depth ratios in the corner. The corner with a blind side also corresponds to the counterpart under the table. Due to the shallow depth, the blind area is not suitable for mechanical corner solutions, but for storing objects that are rarely needed.

The third corner solution is the blind corner, in which two table cabinets are connected with a corner profile, so that outside use of the corner is excluded. This solution is suitable for installing corner fireplaces and air ducts if necessary.

Finally, a fourth corner solution is the corner with a one-sided or two-sided panel area. Here the vanity unit can run into the corner.

Tall cabinet areas differ from the other areas in that there is no worktop. The cheeks are attached to the top wall rail. The Further assembly is carried out in the same way as for the under table area. They are equipped with a solid floor at about half the height. The last wall unit, which is often the end of the system, can be connected to the plinth, for example, via the underbody. this is a

Measure that can be taken on both sides of each kitchenette or at both ends of each plinth.

In the under-table area, single-leaf or double-leaf swing doors are provided. The inlay solution is required so that the cheeks remain visible. This has a high-quality appearance. This also applies to the doors of wall cupboards and tall cupboards.

Swing doors would be unsuitable for the top cabinets because they would always require a free area of the workplaces to be opened. According to the invention, this problem is solved by vertical sliding doors with counterweights. Because these sliding doors must overlap in the closed position and because the lower handle area of the lower one, because of the risk of injury, must not be covered by the upper door, a dead area is created halfway up the shelf. In order to make this area easily accessible, the vertical doors are designed in such a way that the entire door package can extend upwards beyond the top edge of the system so that the otherwise dead area is exposed.

The doors run on the side of the integrated guide profiles. They are connected by wire ropes to counterweights, which in turn are connected via roller boxes lying on the cheeks Guide grooves of the multifunctional profiles on the back of the cheek run. The door frames and the counterweights are screwed onto brackets which are pressed together with the wire ropes, the pressing area also being the guide element. The base of the

Sliding doors is a metal frame. This will be sent to the above Screwed on holder. The door panels are clipped onto the frame with commercially available parts. If glass doors are selected, the clip fittings are glued to the glass.

In the stove area, the working height can be reduced compared to other areas. To do this, the stove installation surface is installed at the desired height between the adjacent cheeks. Alternatively, a half-height cheek can be selected, which extends to the lower edge of the stove unit. This can then be made of a different material and also continue the cheeks in this other material.

In addition to a sink conventionally used in the work surface, a special element can also be placed on the cheek construction. This must either be in a wall cabinet area or in front of a top cabinet. The sink area cannot lie in a cabinet knee. Conventional coupling elements can be used.

Intermediate individual pieces of furniture, eg separate cupboards, can be placed between two cheeks in a panel area that leads down to the floor. But it is also possible to interrupt the system for a single piece of furniture. Further preferred embodiments of the invention result from the subclaims. An embodiment of the present invention will be explained in more detail with reference to a drawing. It shows:

Kitchen furniture system 10 stands on a height-adjustable pedestal bench 15 set back from the wall 11, which is facing away from the wall 11 with a panel 16 and absorbs all vertical loads (to a certain extent attached to the wall), provided that the wall fastenings 13 enable this, which in the present description describes the Case is, but can of course also be designed differently. On the pedestal bench 15, the underfloor 17 of a base cabinet 18, which projects far to the front, rests on the wall 11 with a

Back wall 19 is closed, has locking components 20 on the opposite side and upper floor parts 21, which form a support for a worktop 22.

The worktop 22 supports a rear wall 19 of an add-on cabinet, which has insert shelves 23 and an upper shelf 24 which is connected to the upper edge of the rear wall 19 via an angle element 25. The top floor 24 thus creates space for a roller box 26 for deflecting ropes 66 which are fastened on the one hand to an upper and lower vertically adjustable door 27 and on the other hand to counterweights 28 for the upper and lower door 27 which run vertically in a multifunction rail 29 between the rear wall 19 and the wall 11 are guided therein. FIG. 2 again shows a system section through the kitchen furniture system 10, as already shown in FIG. 1, but with a different area above the worktop 22. It should also be noted that the base cabinet 18 as a locking component 20

Can have swing doors, as well as sliding shutters, etc. The space between the rear cabinet wall 19 and wall 11 can be used advantageously for electrical supply lines or water pipes. The area above the worktop 22 has a panel or rear wall 19 and above it a wall cabinet 30 which has its own rear wall 19, which in turn is equipped with a wall fastening 13 and a depth adjuster 14. The wall cabinet 30 also has a top shelf 24 and swing doors 20 or the like in a conventional design. For the rest, reference is made to the description of FIG. 1.

Fig. 3 corresponds to Fig. 1, so that reference is made to the corresponding description. In the area above the worktop 22 there is only one panel as the rear wall 19, which is arranged, for example, with an insert 23 between the cheeks 33 (not shown) of the table area.
