Definitions

  • the invention relates to a fitting for a corner cabinet, in particular Kitchen corner cabinet, for holding shelves, with one Rotating column to be rotated in the corner cabinet, on which an upper one and a lower carrying device for the corner cupboard door in the longitudinal direction of the rotating column at a distance from each other are arranged.
  • a fitting of this type installed in a corner cabinet forms together with those held by him Shelves and the door a rotatable in the corner cabinet Carousel.
  • the door is regularly one double-leaf door.
  • the support devices two support arms each assigned to one of the door leaves, so that the two door leaves each with one of the support arms upper support and one of the support arms of the lower support are connected.
  • the connection is made via a pivotable about an axis parallel to the rotating column on the respective Support arm seated support part to which the door leaf is screwed or is attached in any other way.
  • the support devices are relatively far from the rotating column from. This results in a transport from the hardware manufacturer relatively much to the furniture factory and storage Fitting assembly taking up space.
  • the present invention is therefore based on the object to create a fitting of the type mentioned that on smaller space can be transported and stored.
  • the fitting can thus be in a collapsed state, so to speak transported and / or stored.
  • the assembled fitting on the support devices is provided with bearing holes for pivoting the serve to be attached to the door wings. To this ensures that the bearing holes are relative to each other are precisely aligned. To be aligned precisely the door panels attached to the supporting parts at the furniture manufacturer held. Before making the bearing holes, the fitting as a whole, i.e. including the rotating column.
