Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein bewegbares Möbelteil, insbesondere eine Schublade, mit einer zwischen einer Rückwand und einer Frontblende angeordneten Relingstange, wobei die Relingstange über ein drehbares Verstellorgan an der Frontblende angebracht ist und sich durch Drehen des Verstellorgans die Frontblende neigt.The invention relates to a movable furniture part, in particular a drawer, with a arranged between a rear wall and a front panel railing rail, wherein the rail rod is mounted on a rotatable adjusting member on the front panel and tilts by rotating the adjusting member, the front panel.

Derartige bewegbare Möbelteile bzw. Schubladen sind bereits bekannt und dienen vor allem der Anpassung und Einstellung der Frontblenden von mehreren übereinander oder nebeneinander angeordneten Schubladen in einem oder mehreren Möbelkorpussen. Diese Einstellungen werden vor allem beim Einbauen des Möbels durchgeführt, um die Fluchtlinie der Möbelvorderseite möglichst einheitlich zu gestalten und ästhetischen Ansprüchen gerecht zu werden.Such movable furniture parts or drawers are already known and are mainly used to adjust and adjust the front panels of several superimposed or juxtaposed drawers in one or more furniture carcasses. These settings are mainly carried out when installing the furniture to make the alignment of the furniture front as uniform as possible and meet aesthetic requirements.

Die aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Schriften DE 90 01 486 U1 , DE 195 07 322 U1 und DE 198 30 740 A1 betreffen Möbelauszüge mit einer Frontblende, die mit einer Relingstange durch ein drehbares (mit einem Gewinde versehenes) Verstellorgan (Verbindungshülse 16 in der DE 90 01 486 U1 , Verstellmutter 4 in der DE 295 07 322 U1 , Einstellmutter 16 in der DE 198 30 740 A1 ) verbunden und durch Drehen des Verstellorgans über ein Gewinde in ihrer Neigung einstellbar ist. Die AT 387 894 B zeigt und beschreibt eine Einstellung der Neigung der Frontblende durch Drehen der Reling in einem Rechtsgewinde und einem Linksgewinde. Die DE 38 19 512 C1 zeigt im Ausführungsbeispiel nach der Fig. 9 eine Einstellung der Neigung bei Regalen durch Drehen eines Verstellorgans (Position 47) mit einem Rechtsgewinde und einem Linksgewinde.The writings known from the prior art DE 90 01 486 U1 . DE 195 07 322 U1 and DE 198 30 740 A1 refer to furniture drawer with a front panel with a rail rod by a rotatable (threaded) adjusting member (connecting sleeve 16 in the DE 90 01 486 U1 , Adjusting nut 4 in the DE 295 07 322 U1 , Adjusting nut 16 in the DE 198 30 740 A1 ) Is connected and adjustable by turning the adjusting member via a thread in its inclination. The AT 387 894 B shows and describes an adjustment of the inclination of the front panel by turning the rail in a right-hand thread and a left-hand thread. The DE 38 19 512 C1 shows in the embodiment of the Fig. 9 an adjustment of the inclination for shelves by turning an adjusting element (item 47) with a right-hand thread and a left-hand thread.

Aus der deutschen Gebrauchsmusterschrift mit der Nummer 89 12 349 ist dazu eine Schubladenreling bekannt, bei der ein Schraubelement an der Frontblende eingehängt und mit der Reling über ein Gewinde verbunden ist. Durch Drehen dieses Schraubelements verändert sich der Abstand zwischen Rückwand und Frontblende, wodurch sich die Frontblende gegenüber der restlichen Schublade neigt. Nachteilig dabei ist, dass das Schraubelement an der Frontblende lediglich eingehängt ist und nur durch eine zurückgeschobene Hülse relativ fix mit der Frontblende verbindbar ist.From the German utility model with the number 89 12 349 a drawer rail is known, in which a screw is hung on the front panel and connected to the rail via a thread. Turning this screw changes the distance between the rear panel and the front panel, causing the front panel to tilt relative to the rest of the drawer. The disadvantage here is that the screw is only hung on the front panel and only by a pushed back sleeve is relatively fixed to the front panel connectable.

Die Aufgabe der Erfindung liegt nun darin, eine gegenüber dem Stand der Technik vereinfachte und verbesserte Verstellmöglichkeit der Neigung einer Frontblende einer Schublade anzugeben.The object of the invention is therefore to provide a comparison with the prior art simplified and improved adjustment of the inclination of a front panel of a drawer.

Dies wird beim erfindungsgemäßen bewegbaren Möbelteil dadurch erreicht, dass sich beim Drehen des Verstellorgans sowohl der Abstand des Verstellorgans zur Frontblende als auch zur Relingstange verstellt. Anders ausgedrückt verstellen sich beim Drehen des Verstellorgans sowohl die Frontblende als auch die Relingstange relativ zum Verstellorgan. Dies ermöglicht eine effektivere Verstellung, da schon bei einer halben Umdrehung des Verstellorgans dieselbe Längsverstellung erreicht wird, die bei einer Ausführung wie im Stand der Technik eine ganze Umdrehung des Schraubelements benötigt.This is achieved in the movable furniture part according to the invention characterized in that adjusts both the distance of the adjusting member to the front panel and the rail rail when turning the adjusting. In other words, when turning the adjustment both the front panel and the rail bar adjusted relative to the adjusting. This allows a more effective adjustment, since even with half a revolution of the adjusting the same longitudinal adjustment is achieved, which requires an entire revolution of the screw in an embodiment as in the prior art.

Gemäß einem bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiel kann vorgesehen sein, dass das Verstellorgan über jeweils ein Gewinde mit der Frontblende und der Relingstange verbunden ist, wobei ein Gewinde ein Rechtsgewinde ist und das andere ein Linksgewinde ist. Somit wird durch Drehen des Verstellorgans, dessen Drehachse parallel zur Reling ausgerichtet ist, die gesamte Länge der Reling entsprechend verändert. Zudem ist durch die Verschraubung eine bessere Fixierung als durch Einhängung gewährleistet.According to a preferred embodiment it can be provided that the adjusting member is connected via a respective thread with the front panel and the rail rail, wherein a thread is a right-hand thread and the other is a left-hand thread. Thus, by rotating the adjusting member whose axis of rotation is aligned parallel to the rail, the entire length of the rail changed accordingly. In addition, a better fixation than by hooking is ensured by the screw.

Die Frontblende an sich und die Relingstange können zwar das entsprechende Gegengewinde für das Verstellorgan aufweisen, jedoch ist es vorteilhaft, wenn einerseits das Gewinde für die Frontblende an einem Frontblendenbefestigungselement ausgebildet ist, welches vorzugsweise durch eine Spreizverbindung mit der Frontblende verbunden ist, und andererseits das Gewinde für die Relingstange in einem Verbindungselement ausgebildet ist, welches vorzugsweise durch eine Pressverbindung mit der Relingstange verbunden ist. Die Spreizverbindung kann dabei in Form eines Dübels, der in der Frontblende fixiert ist, ausgeführt sein.Although the front panel itself and the railing bar may have the corresponding mating thread for the adjusting member, however, it is advantageous if, on the one hand, the thread for the front panel is formed on a front panel mounting member, which is preferably connected by an expansion with the front panel, and on the other hand, the thread is formed for the rail rod in a connecting element, which is preferably connected by a press connection with the rail rail. The expansion joint can be designed in the form of a dowel which is fixed in the front panel.

Bevorzugt kann weiters vorgesehen sein, dass das Verstellorgan ein Außen- und ein Innengewinde aufweist. Hierbei greift das Außengewinde des Verstellorgans in das Gegengewinde in der Relingstange bzw. in deren Verbindungselement ein während das Innengewinde des Verstellorgans das entsprechende Gegengewinde des Frontblendenbefestigungselements umgreift.Preferably, it can further be provided that the adjusting member has an outer and an inner thread. Here, the external thread of the adjusting engages in the mating thread in the rail rod or in the connecting element while the internal thread of the adjusting member engages around the corresponding mating thread of the front panel mounting member.

Eine alternative Ausführungsvariante kann vorsehen, dass das Verstellorgan zwei Führungsschlitze aufweist, in die jeweils ein Führungszapfen einerseits des Frontblendenbefestigungselements und andererseits des Verbindungselements eingreift, sodass sich bei Drehung des Verstellorgans dessen Abstand zur Frontblende und zur Relingstange ändert.An alternative embodiment variant may provide that the adjusting member has two guide slots, in each of which a guide pin on the one hand of the front panel mounting member and on the other hand of the connecting element engages, so that upon rotation of the adjusting its distance to the front panel and the rail rod changes.

Weiteren alternative Beispiele solcher von konstruktiven Ausführungen wären z.B. das Vorsehen von Keilflächen am Verstellorgan, die bei Drehung sowohl die Relingstange als auch die Frontblende wegdrückt/zusammenzieht oder sich verjüngende, im Verstellorgan innen liegende Keilflächen, die die Relingstange und die Frontblende bei Drehung zurück drängen. Weiters wäre es möglich, innengeführte Seile oder Ähnliches vorzusehen, die bei Drehung des Verstellorgans über einen die Seile angreifenden Zapfen gespannt oder entlastet werden, wodurch eine beidseitige Verstellung erfolgt. Alternativ könnten auch Bänder vorgesehen sein, die bei Drehung verdrillt werden und somit beidseitig den Abstand verkürzen. Weitere könnten elastische Teile eine Verstellung ermöglichen, die bei Drehung zusammen gedrückt bzw. beidseitig verdrängt werden.Other alternative examples of such constructive designs would be e.g. the provision of wedge surfaces on the adjusting member, which pushes away on rotation both the rail rod and the front panel / contracts or tapered, in the adjusting organ inside wedge surfaces, which push the rail rail and the front panel on rotation back. Furthermore, it would be possible to provide internally guided ropes or the like, which are stretched or relieved upon rotation of the adjusting device via a pin engaging the ropes, whereby a two-sided adjustment takes place. Alternatively, bands could be provided which are twisted when rotated and thus shorten the distance on both sides. Further elastic parts could allow an adjustment, which are pressed together upon rotation or displaced on both sides.

Ein weiteres Ausführungsbeispiel kann vorsehen, dass das Verstellorgan als eine Art Verstellzylinder, vorzugsweise mit einer Rändelung an seiner Umfangsfläche, ausgebildet ist. Die Rändelung dient dabei vor allem der besseren Handhabung der Verstellung.A further embodiment may provide that the adjusting member is designed as a kind of adjusting cylinder, preferably with a knurling on its peripheral surface. The knurling serves mainly the better handling of the adjustment.

Gemäß einem weiteren Ausführungsbeispiel kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Relingstange über ein Schnappverbindungselement mit der Rückwand verbunden ist und, dass das Verstellorgan durch eine verschiebbare Abdeckkappe abgedeckt ist. Die Abdeckkappe dient dabei dem besseren optischen Eindruck und dem Schutz des kompletten Verstellmechanismus.According to a further embodiment, it can be provided that the rail rod is connected via a snap connection element with the rear wall and that the adjusting member is covered by a sliding cap. The cap serves the better visual impression and the protection of the complete adjustment mechanism.

Ein weiteres Ausführungsbeispiel kann vorsehen, dass wie an sich bekannt unterhalb der Relingstange die Frontblende und die Rückwand über eine Zarge verbunden sind, wobei sich durch Drehen des Verstellorgans die Frontblende neigt und diese Frontblendenneigung durch eine in oder an einem Verbindungselement zwischen Frontblende und Zarge angeordnete Feder ausgleichbar ist. Dadurch werden möglicherweise auftretende Spannungen bei zu starker Neigung verhindert, die ansonsten vor allem die Verbindungsbereiche zwischen Zarge und Frontblende beschädigen könnten. Durch diese Ausführung kann auch ein keilförmiger Spalt zwischen Frontblende und Zarge entsprechend der Neigung entstehen.A further embodiment may provide that as known per se below the rail rod, the front panel and the rear wall are connected via a frame, wherein the front panel tilts by turning the adjustment and this front panel inclination by a arranged in or on a connecting element between the front panel and frame spring is compensable. This will be possibly occurring stresses at excessive inclination prevented, which otherwise could damage especially the connecting areas between the frame and front panel. Through this design, a wedge-shaped gap between the front panel and frame can also be created according to the inclination.

Schutz wird auch begehrt für ein Möbel mit einem bewegbaren Möbelteil nach einem der Ansprüche 1 bis 10.Protection is also desired for a piece of furniture with a movable furniture part according to one of claims 1 to 10.

In Fig. 1 und 2 ist ein Möbel 15 dargestellt, welches einen Möbelkorpus 16 mit drei darin geführten Schubladen 1 zeigt. Im Detailausschnitt E ist dabei die Neigung von zwei Frontblenden 3 ersichtlich, die gegenüber der Ausrichtung der Zarge 12 und des Möbelkorpus 16 geneigt sind. Dies führt zu einer schuppenartigen Optik der Frontblenden 3 des Möbels 15. Diese Neigung wird durch einen erfindungsgemäßen Verstellmechanismus erreicht bzw. kann durch diesen ausgeglichen werden.In Fig. 1 and 2 a piece of furniture 15 is shown, which shows a furniture body 16 with three drawers 1 guided therein. In the detail E is the inclination of two front panels 3 can be seen, which are inclined relative to the orientation of the frame 12 and the furniture body 16. This leads to a scale-like appearance of the front panels 3 of the furniture 15. This tendency is achieved by an adjusting mechanism according to the invention or can be compensated by this.

In Fig. 3 ist das bewegbare Möbelteil bzw. die Schublade 1 dargestellt, welche zumindest aus einer Rückwand 2, einer Frontblende 3, der Schubladenzarge 12 mit Schubladenboden 18 und zwei Relingstangen 4 mit Abdeckkappe 11 besteht.In Fig. 3 the movable furniture part or the drawer 1 is shown, which consists of at least a rear wall 2, a front panel 3, the drawer 12 with drawer bottom 18 and two railing rods 4 with cap 11.

In Fig. 4 ist eine Reling 19 dargestellt, bei welcher die Relingstange 4, die Abdeckkappe 11, das Frontblendenbefestigungselement 7 und das Schnappverbindungselement 10 ersichtlich sind.In Fig. 4 a rail 19 is shown, in which the railing bar 4, the cap 11, the front panel mounting member 7 and the snap connector 10 are visible.

In Fig. 5 ist die Reling 19 explosionsartig dargestellt, wobei der Verstellungsmechanismus in Form eines Verstellorgans 5 in Verbindung mit dem Verbindungselement 8 und dem Frontblendenbefestigungselement 7 erkennbar ist. Das Außengewinde 6a des Verstellorgans 5 ist dabei mit dem Gegengewinde 6b des Verbindungselements 8 verbindbar während das Innengewinde 6c in Verbindung mit dem Gegengewinde 6d des Frontblendenbefestigungselements 7 ausgebildet ist. Nach Einführen des Verbindungselements 8 in die Relingstange 4 werden diese vorzugsweise durch Pressung verbunden. Die Relingstange 4 kann aus einem Stahlprofil in Form eines gebogenen Vierkantrohrs gebildet sein, wobei sowohl das Verbindungselement 8 als auch das Schnappverbindungselement 10 durch eine Pressverbindung mit der Relingstange 4 zusammengefügt werden können. Das Schnappverbindungselement 10 greift vorzugsweise seitlich in die Rückwand 2 ein. Das Verstellorgan 5 selbst weist eine Rändelung 9 zur besseren Handhabbarkeit auf. Zusätzlich ist am Verstellorgan 5 eine Schlüsselweite 20 zur Verstellung bzw. Verdrehung des Verstellorgans 5 mittels entsprechenden Werkzeugs (z. B. Gabelschlüssel) ausgebildet.In Fig. 5 the rail 19 is exploded, wherein the adjustment mechanism in the form of an adjusting member 5 in connection with the connecting element 8 and the front panel mounting member 7 can be seen. The external thread 6a of the adjusting member 5 is connected to the mating thread 6b of the connecting element 8 while the internal thread 6c is formed in connection with the mating thread 6d of the front panel fastening element 7. After insertion of the connecting element 8 in the rail rod 4, these are preferably connected by pressing. The rail 4 may be formed from a steel profile in the form of a bent square tube, wherein both the connecting element 8 and the snap connection element 10 can be joined by a press connection with the rail 4 rail. The snap connection element 10 preferably engages laterally in the rear wall 2. The adjusting member 5 itself has a knurling 9 for better handling. In addition, on the adjusting member 5, a wrench 20 is formed for adjusting or rotating the adjusting member 5 by means of appropriate tools (eg fork wrench).

Die Fig. 6 und 7 zeigen vergleichend Seitenansichten einer Schublade 1, wobei die zurückgeschobene Abdeckkappe 11 jeweils den Blick auf den Verstellmechanismus zulässt. Im Detail A ist dabei der Abstand X zwischen Verstellorgan 5 und Frontblenden-befestigungselement 7 sowie Relingstange 4 erkennbar. Nach erfolgter Drehung (Detail D) verändert sich dieser Abstand X beidseitig. Unter Vorraussetzung einer vergleichbaren Gewindesteigung wird bei einer halben Umdrehung des Verstellorgans 5 dabei bereits die gleiche Längenveränderung erreicht wie beim Stand der Technik durch eine komplette Umdrehung.The Fig. 6 and 7 show comparative side views of a drawer 1, wherein the pushed back cover 11 each allows the view of the adjustment. In detail A is the distance X between the adjusting member 5 and front panel mounting element 7 and railing bar 4 can be seen. After rotation (detail D), this distance X changes on both sides. Under the assumption of a comparable thread pitch, the same change in length is already achieved in half a revolution of the adjusting member 5 as in the prior art by a complete revolution.

Aus Fig. 8 ist hierzu erkennbar, dass durch falsche Einstellungen, zu kurze Reling 19 oder sonstige Unsachmäßigkeiten eine starke Neigung der Frontblende auftritt. Dadurch können starke Spannungen in den Verbindungsbereichen der einzelnen Teile der Schublade 1 auftreten. Um dieser starken Beanspruchung bzw. Überdehnung vorzubeugen, ist im Verbindungselement 13 zwischen Frontblende 3 und Zarge 12 eine Feder 14 angeordnet, welche eine Neigung der Zarge 12 gegenüber einen an der Frontblende 3 angebrachten Frontbeschlag (nicht ersichtlich) erlaubt. Dies bedingt einen Spalt 17 zwischen Frontblende 3 und Zarge 12.Out Fig. 8 It can be seen that due to incorrect settings, too short railing 19 or other inaccuracies a strong inclination of the front panel occurs. As a result, strong stresses in the connecting regions of the individual parts of the drawer 1 may occur. To prevent this heavy stress or overstretching is in the connecting element 13 between the front panel 3 and frame 12th a spring 14 is arranged, which allows an inclination of the frame 12 relative to a mounted on the front panel 3 front fitting (not visible). This requires a gap 17 between the front panel 3 and frame 12th

Fig. 9 zeigt eine (im Gegensatz zu Fig. 8) korrigierte bzw. angepasste Neigung der Frontblende 3 einer Schublade 1. Fig. 9 shows one (as opposed to Fig. 8 ) corrected or adapted inclination of the front panel 3 of a drawer. 1

In Fig. 10 ist eine Ausführungsvariante mit Doppelreling dargestellt, die auf jeder Seite der Schublade 1 zwei übereinander angeordnete verstellbare Relingen 19 zeigt.In Fig. 10 a variant embodiment is shown with double rail, which shows two superimposed adjustable railings 19 on each side of the drawer 1.

Fig. 11 zeigt eine schematische Seitenansicht eines alternativen, vorzugsweise mit einem Aufsteckspalt versehenen Verstellorgans 5 mit zwei schräg im Verstellorgan 5 ausgebildeten Führungsschlitzen 20. In diesen Führungsschlitzen 20 ist einerseits der Führungszapfen 21 des Frontblendenbefestigungselements 7 und andererseits der Führungszapfen 21 des Verbindungselements 8 geführt. In Fig. 12 ist dazu der schematische Querschnitt abgebildet. Bei Drehung des Verstellorgans 5 im Uhrzeigersinn bewegt sich der Führungszapfen 21 im schrägen Führungsschlitz 20, wodurch sich der Abstand zwischen Verstellorgan 5 und Frontblendenbefestigungselement 7 bzw. Verbindungselement 8 ändert. Dementsprechend zeigt die Fig. 13 den sich beidseitig verändernden Abstand X zwischen Verstellorgan und Frontblende bzw. Schubkasten. In Fig. 14 ist im Querschnitt die Lage des Verstellorgans 5 nach Verdrehung abgebildet. Fig. 11 shows a schematic side view of an alternative, preferably provided with a Aufsteckspalt adjusting 5 with two obliquely formed in the adjusting member 5 guide slots 20. In these guide slots 20 on the one hand, the guide pin 21 of the front panel mounting member 7 and on the other hand, the guide pin 21 of the connecting element 8 out. In Fig. 12 For this purpose, the schematic cross-section is shown. Upon rotation of the adjusting member 5 in the clockwise direction, the guide pin 21 moves in the oblique guide slot 20, whereby the distance between the adjusting member 5 and front panel mounting member 7 and connecting element 8 changes. Accordingly, the shows Fig. 13 the mutually changing distance X between adjusting and front panel or drawer. In Fig. 14 is shown in cross-section, the position of the adjusting member 5 after rotation.

Somit zeigt diese Erfindung eine kompakte, stabile und unkomplizierte Längenverstellmöglichkeit einer Reling für eine Schublade, um die Frontblendenneigung einstellen zu können, wenn die Ausrichtung der Blende zum Schubkasten, die Ausrichtung des Schubkastens zur Möbelkorpusvorderseite oder die Ausrichtung von Frontblenden mehrerer Schubladen zueinander nicht parallel bzw. nicht fluchtend ist, um insbesondere die optischen Eigenschaften zu verbessern (Vermeidung schuppenähnlich angeordneter Frontblenden).Thus, this invention shows a compact, stable and uncomplicated Längenverstellmöglichkeit a rail for a drawer to adjust the front panel tilt when the orientation of the panel to the drawer, the orientation of the drawer to the furniture body front or the alignment of front panel of several drawers to each other not parallel or is not aligned, in particular to improve the optical properties (avoiding scale-like arranged front panels).
