A part of a piece of furniture can be detachably coupled to said driving member. The inventive device further comprises a fluid damper (9) which dampens the retracting movement of the slide (8). Said fluid damper (9, 20) is separated from the displaceable slide (8) and is provided with a stop, against which the slide (8) rests with the aid of a counterstop during the retracting movement.

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Schließ- und/oder Einzugsvorrichtung für bewegbare Möbelteile mit einem federbeaufschlagten verfahrbaren Schlitten, auf dem ein separater Mitnehmer kippbar gelagert ist, mit dem ein Möbelteil lösbar kuppelbar ist, sowie mit einem Fluiddämpfer, der die Einzugsbewegung des Schlittens dämpft.The invention relates to a closing and / or feeding device for movable furniture parts with a spring-loaded movable carriage on which a separate carrier is tiltably mounted, with a furniture part is detachably coupled, and with a fluid damper, which dampens the retraction movement of the carriage.

Eine derartige Schließ- und/oder Einzugsvorrichtung, die bei Schubladen zum Einsatz kommt, ist beispielsweise aus der EP 1 120 066 A2 bekannt. Dabei wird die über den Großteil ihres Auszugsbereiches frei verfahrbare Schublade im hinteren Einzugsbereich von einem Mitnehmer der Einzugsvorrichtung erfasst und sicher in die rückwärtige Endposition gezogen, d.h. geschlossen. Durch einen in die Einzugsvorrichtung integrierten Dämpfer wird dieser letzte Abschnitt der Schließbewegung gedämpft, so dass ein sanfter Schließvorgang ohne Schließgeräusche erzielt wird.Such a closing and / or pulling-in device, which is used in drawers, is known, for example, from EP 1 120 066 A2. In the process, the drawer, which is freely movable over the greater part of its pull-out area, is caught in the rear catchment area by a catch of the draw-in device and securely pulled into the rearward end position, i. closed. By a built-in catcher damper this last section of the closing movement is damped, so that a gentle closing process is achieved without locking noises.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine derartige Schließ- und Einzugsvorrichtung dahingehend zu verbessern, dass der Fluiddämpfer ausschließlich bei der Einschubbewegung der Schublade wirksam ist.The object of the invention is to improve such a closing and retraction device to the effect that the fluid damper is effective only in the insertion movement of the drawer.

Die erfindungsgemäße Aufgabe wird dadurch gelöst, dass der Fluiddämpfer vom verfahrbaren Schlitten getrennt ist und einen Anschlag aufweist, an dem der Schlitten bei der Einzugsbewegung mit einem Gegenanschlag anliegt.The object of the invention is achieved in that the fluid damper is separated from the movable carriage and has a stop on which the carriage rests in the retraction movement with a counter-stop.

Vorteilhaft ist vorgesehen, dass der Fluiddämpfer einen Zylinder und einen darin linear verfahrbaren Kolben umfasst, und dass der Anschlag vom freien Ende einer aus dem Zylinder heraus ragenden Kolbenstange gebildet wird.Advantageously, it is provided that the fluid damper comprises a cylinder and a piston movable linearly therein, and that the stop is formed by the free end of a piston rod projecting out of the cylinder.

Durch die erfindungsgemäße Ausführung wird auch verhindert, dass der Kolben beim Öffnen der Schublade zu schnell bewegt wird und somit Luft in den Zylinder eindringen kann. Außerdem wird die Ausziehbewegung der Schublade nicht gebremst.The inventive design also prevents the piston is moved too quickly when opening the drawer and thus air can penetrate into the cylinder. In addition, the pull-out of the drawer is not slowed down.

Ein weiteres Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung sieht vor, dass der Anschlag vom freien Ende einer Antriebsstange gebildet wird, die bei der Einzugsbewegung des Schlittens einen Rotationsdämpfer aktiviert.A further embodiment of the invention provides that the stop is formed by the free end of a drive rod which activates a rotational damper during the retraction movement of the carriage.

Die erfindungsgemäße Schließ- und/oder Einzugsvorrichtung kann zwar vorteilhaft als Einzugsvorrichtung für Schubladen, aber auch als Schließvorrichtung für Türflügel eingesetzt werden. Auch im letzteren Fall ist der Türflügel über den Großteil seines Öffnungsweges frei verschwenkbar und wird erst dann, wenn er beim Schließvorgang in die Nähe seiner Schließstellung kommt, von der Schließvorrichtung erfaßt und sicher geschlossen.Although the closing and / or feeding device according to the invention can be used advantageously as a collection device for drawers, but also as a closing device for door leaves. Also in the latter case, the door is free to pivot over most of its opening travel and only when it comes to the closing operation in the vicinity of its closed position, detected by the locking device and securely closed.

In den gezeigten Ausführungsbeispielen ist die Schließ- und/oder Einzugsvorrichtung 1 an der Tragschiene 2 einer Ausziehführungsgarnitur gelagert. Die Tragschiene 2 ist in herkömmlicher Art und Weise an eine Seitenwand eines Möbelkorpusses zu befestigen. Am hinteren Ende einer ladenseitigen Ausziehschiene 3 ist der Arretierteil befestigt, der einen nach unten ragenden Mitnehmerzapfen 6 aufweist.In the exemplary embodiments shown, the closing and / or pulling-in device 1 is mounted on the mounting rail 2 of a pull-out guide fitting. The mounting rail 2 is in a conventional manner to a side wall of a furniture body to Fasten. At the rear end of a loading-side pull-out rail 3, the locking part is fastened, which has a downwardly projecting driving pin 6.

Die Schließ- und/oder Einzugsvorrichtung 1 weist ein Gehäuse 7 auf, das auf einem Horizontalsteg der Tragschiene 2 verankert ist.The closing and / or intake device 1 has a housing 7 which is anchored on a horizontal web of the support rail 2.

Im Gehäuse 7 ist ein Schlitten 8 linear verfahrbar angeordnet, auf dem ein Mitnehmer 12 kippbar gelagert ist. Der Mitnehmer 12 ist über einen Zapfen 13 am Schlitten 8 gelagert, und weist einen Vorsprung 24 auf, mittels dem er in einer Führungsbahn des Gehäuses 7 geführt ist.In the housing 7, a carriage 8 is arranged linearly movable, on which a driver 12 is tiltably mounted. The driver 12 is mounted on a slide 13 on the carriage 8, and has a projection 24, by means of which it is guided in a guide track of the housing 7.

Zwei Federn 14 sind an einem Verankerungsteil 15 verankert und greifen am Schlitten 8 an. Die Federn 14 sind als Zugfedern ausgeführt. Der Verankerungsteil 15 ist in Montagelage vom Gehäuse 7 distanziert, ist jedoch ein komplementärer Teil des Gehäuses 7. Der Abstand des Verankerungsteiles 15 vom Gehäuse 7 bestimmt die Spannung der Federn 14.Two springs 14 are anchored to an anchoring part 15 and engage the carriage 8. The springs 14 are designed as tension springs. The anchoring part 15 is spaced in the mounting position of the housing 7, but is a complementary part of the housing 7. The distance of the anchoring part 15 from the housing 7 determines the tension of the springs fourteenth

In der in den Fig. 2 bis 5 gezeigten Stellung ist die erfindungsgemäße Schließ- und/oder Einzugsvorrichtung 1 in der Bereitschaftsstellung. Wird die Schublade geschlossen und die Ausziehschiene 3 nach hinten bewegt, so rastet der Mitnehmerzapfen 6 in der Kerbe 16 des Mitnehmers 12 ein und beginnt den Mitnehmer 12 aus seiner in der Fig. 3 gezeigten Arretierstellung heraus zu drehen. Sobald sich der Vorsprung 4 des Mitnehmers 12 in der Führungsbahn des Gehäuses 7 befindet, ziehen die Federn 14 den Schlitten 8 mit dem Mitnehmer 12 nach hinten, wodurch die Schublade in die voll eingezogene Stellung gebracht wird. Im gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel ist die Schließ- und/oder Einzugsvorrichtung 1 auf der ortsfesten Tragschiene 2 angeordnet und der Mitnehmerzapfen 6 an der ladenseitigen Ausziehschiene 3. Die umgekehrte Anordnung, d.h. die Schließ- und/oder Einzugsvorrichtung 1 an der Ausziehschiene 3 und der Mitnehmerzapfen 6 an der Tragschiene 2, wäre ebenfalls möglich.In the position shown in FIGS. 2 to 5, the closing and / or pulling device 1 according to the invention is in the ready position. When the drawer is closed and the pull-out rail 3 is moved backwards, the driving pin 6 engages in the notch 16 of the driver 12 and begins to rotate the driver 12 out of its locking position shown in FIG. 3. As soon as the projection 4 of the driver 12 is in the guideway of the housing 7, pull the springs 14, the carriage 8 with the driver 12 to the rear, whereby the drawer is brought into the fully retracted position. In the embodiment shown, the closing and / or retraction device 1 is arranged on the fixed support rail 2 and the driving pin 6 on the loading side pull-out 3. The reverse arrangement, i. the closing and / or retraction device 1 on the pull-out rail 3 and the driving pin 6 on the mounting rail 2, would also be possible.

Weiters ist ein Fluiddämpfer 9 vorgesehen, der unmittelbar im Gehäuse 7 ausgebildet oder wie im gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel neben dem Gehäuse 7 angeordnet sein kann.Furthermore, a fluid damper 9 is provided, which may be formed directly in the housing 7 or arranged in the embodiment shown next to the housing 7.

Im Ausführungsbeispiel nach den Fig. 1 bis 6 ist der Fluiddämpfer 9 als Lineardämpfer ausgeführt, mit einem Zylinder 10 und einem darin verfahrbaren Kolben, der mit einer Kolbenstange 11 versehen ist. Das freie Ende der Kolbenstange 11 dient als Anschlag für den Schlitten 8. Der Schlitten 8 weist einen seitlich auskragenden Vorsprung 17 auf, der als Gegenanschlag dient. Erfindungswesentlich ist, dass die Kolbenstange 11 nicht am Schlitten 8 angelenkt ist, sondern nur während der Dämpfung am Schlitten 8 bzw. am Vorsprung 17 des Schlittens 8 anliegt. In der Ausgangsposition, d.h. wenn sich der Schlitten 8 mit dem Mitnehmer 12 in der Bereitschaftsposition befindet, kann das freie Ende der Kolbenstange 11 bereits am Vorsprung 17 anliegen oder sich im geringen Abstand von diesem befinden.In the embodiment according to FIGS. 1 to 6, the fluid damper 9 is designed as a linear damper, with a cylinder 10 and a piston movable therein, which is provided with a piston rod 11. The free end of the piston rod 11 serves as a stop for the carriage 8. The carriage 8 has a laterally projecting projection 17 which serves as a counter-stop. Is essential to the invention that the piston rod 11 is not hinged to the carriage 8, but only during damping on the carriage 8 and the projection 17 of the carriage 8 rests. In the starting position, i. when the carriage 8 is in the standby position with the driver 12, the free end of the piston rod 11 may already rest against the projection 17 or be located at a small distance therefrom.

Wesentlich ist, dass beim Öffnen der Schublade, d.h. wenn der Schlitten 8 mit dem Mitnehmer 12 nach vorne bewegt wird, die Kolbenstange 11 nicht vom Schlitten 8 mitgezogen wird. Der Vorsprung 17 des Schlittens 8 hebt vom freien Ende der Kolbenstange 11 ab und der Kolben der Dämpfeinrichtung wird beispielsweise von einer im Zylinder 10 befindlichen Feder mit einer wesentlich geringeren Geschwindigkeit als der Schlitten 8 wieder in die Bereitschaftsstellung bewegt. Auf diese Weise wird verhindert, dass Luft in den Zylinder 10 eintreten kann, was insbesondere dann von Bedeutung ist, wenn das Dämpfungsfluid eine Flüssigkeit, beispielsweise ein Öl ist.It is essential that when opening the drawer, i. when the carriage 8 is moved forward with the driver 12, the piston rod 11 is not pulled along by the carriage 8. The projection 17 of the carriage 8 lifts off from the free end of the piston rod 11 and the piston of the damping device is moved, for example by a spring 10 located in the cylinder at a much lower speed than the carriage 8 back into the ready position. In this way it is prevented that air can enter the cylinder 10, which is particularly important when the damping fluid is a liquid, such as an oil.

Im Ausführungsbeispiel nach der Fig. 7 ist der Fluiddämpfer als Rotationsdämpfer 20 ausgebildet, mit einem Ritzel 18, das mit einer Zahnstange 19 kämmt. Die Zahnstange 19 dient in diesem Ausführungsbeispiel als Antriebsstange für den Rotationsdämpfer 20 und ersetzt somit die Kolbenstange 11 des vorangehend beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispiels. Das freie Ende der Zahnstange 19 liegt bei der Dämpfung wiederum am vom Vorsprung 17 gebildeten Gegenanschlag des Schlittens 8 an.In the embodiment of FIG. 7, the fluid damper is designed as a rotary damper 20, with a pinion 18 which meshes with a rack 19. The rack 19 is used in this embodiment as a drive rod for the rotary damper 20 and thus replaces the piston rod 11 of the embodiment described above. The free end of the rack 19 is in turn at the counter-stop formed by the projection 17 of the carriage 8 at the damping.

Beim Öffnen der Schublade hebt dieser Vorsprung 17 vom freien Ende der Zahnstange 19 ab, sodass der Rotationsdämpfer 20 beim Öffnen der Schublade durch den Schlitten 8 nicht beaufschlagt wird. Es ist eine Feder 21 vorgesehen, die die Zahnstange 19 unabhängig von der Bewegung des Schlittens 8 und des Mitnehmers 12 in die Bereitschaftsstellung bewegt.When opening the drawer, this projection 17 lifts off from the free end of the rack 19, so that the rotary damper 20 is not acted upon by the carriage 8 when the drawer is opened. There is a spring 21 is provided, which moves the rack 19 regardless of the movement of the carriage 8 and the driver 12 in the standby position.
