Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for use in connection with a "soft" opening and later a “soft” closing of a drawer in a furniture body, and where one or more rails are mounted between the drawer and the furniture body and parallel to the longitudinal direction of the drawer, said rails optionally being mounted with ball bearings in between said rails.
  • the aspect of the invention is to provide a device of the above type, and which is very simple, and which can be used for both opening and closing the respective drawer.
  • the device according to the invention is characterised in that it comprises a single, oblong housing provided with a longitudinal open slot and a first end member and a sec- ond end member, said housing being mounted in connection with the furniture body or on a rail secured thereon, and where a longitudinally displaceable damper cylinder is mounted in said housing, said damper cylinder comprising a piston with a piston rod, said piston being provided with at least one auxiliary valve, and where a first end part of the damper cylinder - and which is free of the piston rod - has an abutment face against which a first offsetable pin member- which is mounted substantially at the rear end of the drawer or on a longitudinally displaceable rail- is adapted to directly or indirectly abut during the opening of the drawer, while a second offsetable pin member, which is mounted substantially at the front end of the drawer - is adapted to directly or indirectly abut a third end part mounted on the outermost end of the piston rod, when the drawer is displaced towards the closed position thereof, the end
  • the second pin member of the drawer reaches and abuts the third end part (the outmost end) of the piston rod during the inward movement of the drawer (i.e. when the drawer subsequently is to be closed).
  • the above third end part and the piston rod and the damper cylinder as a whole are displaced in the longitudinal direction of the housing until the first end part of the damper cylinder abuts the first end member of the housing.
  • the third end part of the piston rod is pushed further into abutment against the second end part of the damper cylinder. Fluid, which is present on the other side of the piston, then flows through the auxiliary valve(s) back to the first side of the piston.
  • the device is structurally very simple - and particularly more simple than the prior art, where separate devices are used for opening and closing the drawer, respectively.
  • the housing provided with the longitudinal open slot may have a substantially U-shaped cross-section, where the upper ends of the free sections of the U are led a little towards each other in order to render said slot relatively narrow, and the damper cylinder may be displaced axially in the housing by means of the pin members, via the upper slot in the housing and a slot-opening in each of the above end members, abutting the above end parts on the damper cylinder and moving the latter.
  • the damper cylinder complete with piston and piston rod may be moved in the housing in a particularly reliable way.
  • each of the free sections in the U may be double sections corresponding to the side walls of the housing being double. In this way, a particularly advantageous structure of the housing is obtained.
  • the bottom wall in the U-shaped cross-section of the housing may be curved and have the cavity facing upwards, and a plurality of small ribs may be provided between the bottom wall and the outermost wall in each of the mentioned double walls in order to stiffen the housing. In this way, a particularly simple and strong structure of the housing is obtained.
  • the damper cylinder and the mentioned third end part may have a total length constituting at least 75% of the length of the housing. In this way, a particularly advantageous structure of the device is obtained.
  • a first pressure spring may be mounted in the damper cylinder between the piston and the mentioned first end part.
  • the piston rod on the piston may be pushed relatively far out of the damper cylinder in the relatively short period where the damper cylinder (in connection with the closing of the drawer) is without con- tact to the first pin member and the second pin member.
  • a second pressure spring or tension spring may be mounted in the damper cylinder according to the invention between the piston and the mentioned second end part. This has proven to be particularly advantageous in practice.
  • At least two channels may be arranged in the piston of the damper cylinder, said channels being provided with auxiliary valves, for instance in the form of flap valves, for dampening the fluid flow through the respective channels.
  • auxiliary valves for instance in the form of flap valves
  • a radial stop member extending through the longitudinal slot may be provided on or at the first end part or the third end part of the damper cylinder or on or at both positions against which stop member the first pin member and/or the second pin member may abut so as to provide an axial movement of the damper cylinder and optionally the third end part thereof.
  • a device may be mounted in connection to the drawer and the furniture body for automatically ending the closing movement of the drawer, a third pin member mounted on the drawer - or on the rail of the drawer - engaging a second tilt-able rocker during the inward movement of the drawer, said rocker being connected either directly or indirectly by means of a tension spring secured on the housing.
  • Fig. 1 is a perspective and schematic view of an embodiment of a device according to the invention, and which is mounted on rails in connection with a non-depicted drawer, which can be pulled out from and pushed into a non-depicted furniture body; the device is shown in a position corresponding to the drawer being in a closed position,
  • Fig. 2 is the same in connection with the drawer being pulled out, and the damper cyl- inder is not in contact with any pin member;
  • Fig. 3 is the same, the front pin member (arranged at the rear end of the drawer) abutting the damper cylinder and having pushed the latter to the left in the figure;
  • Fig. 4 is the same, the rear pin member (arranged at the outermost end of the drawer) having pushed the damper cylinder and its end part positioned at the end of the piston rod all the way to the right end of the figure; the drawer being closed in this position,
  • Fig. 5 is a cross-sectional view of an embodiment of the housing used according to the invention
  • Fig. 6 is a longitudinal sectional view of an embodiment of the damper cylinder provided with a coil spring
  • Fig. 7 is a housing in which a damper cylinder provided with abutting members for the pin members is mounted axially displaceably
  • the device 14 shown in Fig. 1 comprises a housing 1 connected to rail 2 mounted on a non-depicted furniture body.
  • Said rail 2 is mounted inside in the furniture body by means of fittings 40 as well as fittings of a similar kind mounted on the rail 2 and arranged further to the right but not visible in the figure.
  • one or more extra rails 3 and 4 are mounted in a parallel manner.
  • the rails 2, 3 and 4 can slide in relation to each other, and optionally ball bearings are provided between the rails to advance the mentioned smooth movement of the rails.
  • the housing 1 shown in Fig. 1 is partly open, said housing being provided with an oblong slot extending from one side of the housing to the other.
  • An end member is arranged at each of the ends of the housing 1 in such a manner that a first end member 7a is mounted at the right end of the housing and an end member 7b is mounted at the left end of the housing.
  • a longitudinally displaceable damper cylinder 9 is mounted which comprises a piston 8 provided with one or more adjustment valves 37, 38 - cf. Fig. 6.
  • the piston 8 is provided with a piston rod 10, which - cf. Fig. 1 - extends through a left end part 11 in the damper cylinder 9.
  • a third end part 12 is mounted (Fig. 1 ), which has an end surface also arranged within the housing 1. The damper cylinder is thus enclosed in the housing, but can together with its piston rod 10 and the third end part 12 be longitudinally displaced in the hous- ing.
  • the displacement of the damper cylinder 9 towards the left end of the housing 1 can be provided by - cf. Fig. 3 - a first pin member 15 abutting the right end part 9b of the damper cylinder 9 by means of the displacement of a rail 3.
  • the damper cylinder 9 and the third end part 12 thereof can be displaced towards the right (i.e. when the drawer is closed) by means of the first pin member 15, cf. Fig. 1 (the first pin member 15 can then as shown abut the third end part 12 of the damper cylinder 1).
  • each of the free sections of the substantially U-shaped cross- section of the housing 1 can be shaped as double sections corresponding to the side walls of the housing 1 being double, cf. the walls 23a' and 23b' as well as 24a' and 24b'.
  • a bottom wall 26 in the cross-sectional U-shaped housing is curved and the cavity thereof is facing upwards.
  • the damper cylinder 9 and the mentioned end part 12 can have a total length of at least 75% the length of the housing 1.
  • a pressure spring 29 can be mounted in the damper cylinder 9 - between the piston 8 and the first end part 9b; however it is also possible to mount a pressure spring 39 in the damper cylinder 9 between the piston 8 and an opposite second end part 9a in the cylinder 9.
  • At least two channels 31 , 32 can be provided the in piston 8 in the damper cylinder 9, one or more adjustment valves, for instance in the form of flap valves 37 and 38, being mounted in said channels.
  • the flap valves serve to dampen the fluid flow through the channels 31 and 32, a fluid being present in the space on each side of the piston, said fluid being preferably in the form of liquid, particularly water.
  • the device according to the invention works in the following manner:
  • the one end part 7a or 7b (possibly both end parts) in the housing 1 can be free of the slot-like opening 7a' and 7b', respectively.
  • the one end or the third end part 12 (or both) of the damper cylinder can be provided with a radial stop member 41 extending out through the longitudinal slot 28 against which member
  • piston rod 10 in certain cases can be led through the piston 8 and extend into the space between the piston 8 and the end part 9b.
  • a device 43 can be mounted in connection with the drawer and the furniture body, for instance on the rail 2, for automatically ending the closing movement of the drawer.
  • a separate, but non-depicted, third pin member arranged on rails 4 reaches the device 43 during the closing of the drawer, said pin member engages a second tilt-able rocker 46 arranged in the device 43.
  • Said rocker 46 is affected by a non-visible tension spring secured on a second housing 47.
  • the invention can be varied in many ways without deviating from the scope of the pre- sent invention.
