Definitions

  • the connecting devices are used, for example, for guide systems as so-called partial extensions with two guide rails or full extensions with three guide rails, based on an extension unit, with the rails being telescopically movable relative to one another.
  • a sliding element such as a drawer, a storage shelf, a food support or the like is slidably accommodated via exactly two separate, identical structural units of a partial extension or a full extension.
  • the respective structural unit of the pull-out guides is preferably attached to an inside of a furniture body or a housing of a household or kitchen appliance.
  • Connection devices are off for example U.S. 2013/257244 A1 and EP 0 695 523 A1 known.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a connection device for a movable sliding element, a guide system and a piece of furniture or a household appliance that is improved with regard to a technically advantageous connection of the sliding element to a guide.
  • the invention is based on a device for connecting a movable sliding element of a piece of furniture or a household appliance, such as a kitchen appliance, to a guide rail of a guiding system of the piece of furniture or the household appliance, the device being designed to be arranged on the movable sliding element.
  • the connecting device is preferably designed in such a way that it can be fastened to the push element, in particular using a tool.
  • the pushing element can be releasably but securely connected manually to the guide rail in the correct position and can be dismantled again.
  • the core of the invention lies in the fact that the device has a latching arm with a latching element, with the latching element being designed to couple with a latching element, in particular with a latching element of the guide rail, in the arranged state of the device, with the latching arm being present as an elongate element is, wherein the latching arm is connected to the remaining device by two spaced-apart attachment members, in particular by exactly two attachment members, the attachment members being transverse, in particular perpendicular, to a longitudinal extension of the locking arm act on the latching arm, with the attachment elements having a curved shape, with the attachment elements being bent in opposite directions, with the attachment elements being elastic, so that the attachment arm can be moved in the region of the existing attachment element in a direction transverse to the longitudinal extension of the attachment arm and in the direction of the attachment elements is, for example, is relocatable.
  • a longitudinal axis of the elongate element of the locking arm advantageously extends at least approximately parallel to a direction of movement of the pusher element and/or a direction of movement of the guide rail.
  • the guide rail is z. B. a sliding element rail or movement rail of the furniture guide system.
  • the locking arm is preferably connected in one piece to the remaining part of the connecting device via the connecting elements. Accordingly, the latching arm, the connecting elements and the remaining part of the connecting device are preferably designed in one piece, which is advantageous in terms of production technology and economics.
  • the mobility of the latching arm relative to the remaining part of the connecting device transversely to its longitudinal extent is determined by an essentially first or linear movement component.
  • a subordinate second movement component can be a pivoting or rotary movement component, which takes place superimposed on the first linear movement component.
  • the connecting organs implement a mounting in the manner of a pivot bearing point that moves along with a locking arm that pivots about a pivot axis. With the connection organs, an articulation point is provided between the locking arm and the remaining part of the connection device.
  • the two connecting elements represent a type of four-bar arrangement for the movement mounting of the locking arm.
  • the connecting elements form at least two separate articulation points on the locking arm and on the remaining part of the connecting device.
  • an elastic movement or a spring movement is possible, which is nevertheless essentially characterized as a linear movement or as a sliding movement.
  • Exactly one latching element on the latching arm can thus advantageously be sufficient to set up secure coupling or latching with the latching element, which is preferably multi-toothed viewed in the longitudinal direction of the latching arm, in all possible relative positions of pusher element and guide rail.
  • the attachment elements include, for example, a first attachment element, which is connected to the latching arm at a first point, viewed in the longitudinal direction of the latching arm.
  • a second attachment member is connected to the latch arm at a second location as viewed in the longitudinal direction of the latch arm, the second location being further away from the latch member in the longitudinal direction than the first location.
  • the first digit and the second digit are, for example, a few millimeters such. B. about 5 millimeters apart.
  • the total length of the locking arm is about 6 to 8 centimeters, for example. Viewed over its length, the two attachment elements grip the latching arm in the area that is adjacent to a longitudinal center of the latching arm.
  • the latching arm has an operating element which is present at an angle to the remaining elongate element of the latching arm, so that the latching arm can be moved by means of the operating element.
  • the operating element forms a lever arm with respect to the latching arm with a moment effect, so that the latching arm can be moved relative to the remaining connecting device around a bearing point of the latching arm formed with the connecting elements.
  • the latching arm has a partial front longitudinal section on which the latching element is formed.
  • the latching element is preferably present at a free end of the latching arm or of the front partial longitudinal section.
  • the front partial longitudinal section is preferably designed to be essentially straight.
  • the locking arm also has a rear partial longitudinal section, which is preferably also straight and angled to the front partial longitudinal section and includes the operating element. Both partial longitudinal sections preferably have approximately the same length.
  • the two attachment members are preferably connected to the locking arm at the front partial longitudinal section, in particular in the vicinity of the section in which the front and rear partial longitudinal sections meet. This section forms, for example, a bend in the locking arm between the two partial longitudinal sections.
  • At least one additional attachment element can be present or act on the latching arm.
  • the operating element enables easier manual decoupling of the latching arm or latching element from the latching element. Accordingly, the operating element is used to decouple the latching element in order to then immediately move the pushing element away from the guide system.
  • the actual coupling movement of the latching arm takes place during assembly of the sliding element, in particular by an automatic evasive movement of the latching arm during assembly of the sliding element on the respective guide rail, without having to act on the operating element.
  • the latching element is pressed against a section of the latching element during assembly of the thrust element on the guide rail, deviates somewhat elastically as a result and is guided past the latching element up to a pre-latching position and a final assembly position of the thrust element on the guide rail until a coupling or detent set up is.
  • the latching element and the mating section on the latching element are latched with the restoring movement of the latching arm due to the previously elastically deformed connection organs, since these cause a prestressing of the latching arm for a short time due to the deflection.
  • a force to be applied from the outside is required for the neutral position and for the locking element to move past the section of the locking element into the pre-locking and final locking position. This is done by a fitter moving the sliding element with the connecting device attached to it as a whole, correctly aligned to the guide system attached to the furniture, placing it and bringing it into the end position.
  • the angled arrangement of the control element on the locking arm is mechanically advantageous due to a leverage effect on the locking arm, as well as being advantageous for ease of use.
  • a further advantage is characterized in that when the latching arm is positioned, the latching arm moves transversely to its longitudinal extent and/or along its longitudinal extent, in particular parallel to its longitudinal extent, with a movement path transverse to its longitudinal extent being comparatively greater during positioning is, as a distance of movement along its length.
  • the ratio of the movement distance in the transverse direction to a movement distance in the longitudinal direction is maximum in the optimal case or in the longitudinal direction the movement distance is z.
  • the Movement distance in the transverse direction is, for example, 2 to 5 millimeters.
  • In the minimal case of longitudinal movement there is no movement of the latching arm and in particular of the latching element in the longitudinal direction. This means that ideally a pure transverse movement z.
  • B. a transverse sliding movement of the section or the area of the latching arm with the latching member takes place relative to the longitudinal extension of the latching arm or the longitudinal movement is minimal.
  • the locking arm is positioned or moved, for example, by a user engaging in the connecting device, for example when the user acts on the operating element, for example when decoupling or when mounting the sliding element on the guide rail.
  • the latching element is present as a single latching tooth, in particular. Reliable and stable locking is thus achieved with a simple form of the locking element. Based on a given installation space, exactly one ratchet tooth can be made more stable and easier to manufacture than several smaller ratchet teeth.
  • the attachment members are designed essentially as cuboid wall elements.
  • the cuboid shape relates in particular to a contour when viewed from above on the respective surface sides of the attachment organs.

  • a distance between the two connection organs in the longitudinal direction on the locking arm is z. B. about 4 to 6 millimeters.
  • an articulation point of the first attachment element on the rest of the locking arm is at a smaller distance from the attachment element than an articulation point of the second attachment element on the rest of the attachment arm.
  • the connection organs are in the longitudinal extension of the locking arm accordingly preferably offset. A coincident on at least one side of the two attachment organs articulation of the two attachment organs z. B. on the locking arm or on the opposite part of the base component is also conceivable.

  • the first attachment element In the longitudinal direction of the latching arm, the first attachment element has a side directed towards the latching element, which is curved in a concave manner, and correspondingly has a convexly curved opposite side, which faces away from the latching element.
  • the second attachment element In the longitudinal direction of the latching arm, the second attachment element has a side which is directed in the direction of the latching element and extends in a convex curve, and in the direction away from the latching element correspondingly has a concavely curved opposite side. It is also advantageous that the thickness of a connection element decreases in the direction of the locking arm. The decrease in thickness preferably takes place steplessly or continuously over the length of the attachment element.
  • the latching arm and the connecting elements preferably belong to a basic component of the connecting device, which is designed in one piece.
  • the connecting device preferably also comprises an adjusting component which can be detachably attached to the base component and pivoted thereon and has an operating element and a height adjustment element.
  • the extension of a connecting member is oriented obliquely or transversely to the longitudinal direction of the latching arm.
  • One end of a tie is connected to the latch arm and an opposite end of the tie is connected to the remainder of the base member.
  • a wall section of the base component of the connecting device connecting these ends is preferably present between the two ends of the connecting elements facing away from the latching arm.
  • the connecting wall section of the base component is designed in such a way that with an elastic deformation of the connection organs when the latching arm moves or shifts, the wall section behaves at least almost mechanically rigidly or is not significantly elastically deformed. In this way, a fixed mounting of the two connecting elements is realized at their respective ends facing away from the latching arm.
  • the connection elements are accordingly available so elastically that when the locking arm is moved or shifted, the connection elements deform elastically between their ends which act on the locking arm and on the remaining basic component. The deformation occurs when attaching the pusher to the guide rail and when removing the pusher by manual action z. B. a fitter or user.
  • Both the ends of the two attachment elements that act on the remaining basic component and the ends of the attachment elements that engage the locking arm are connected to the remaining basic component and the locking arm over their entire height, i.e. transversely to the longitudinal extension of the locking arm and transverse to the movement or sliding direction of the locking arm tied together.
  • the attachment members preferably have the same height throughout their length.
  • Another advantageous embodiment of the invention results from the thickness of one attachment element being greater than the thickness of the other attachment element.
  • the thickness of a connecting element is to be understood as meaning a material thickness or the thickness over the essential extension or an averaged or average thickness of the connecting element.
  • the first attachment element preferably has a smaller average thickness than the second attachment element, or vice versa.
  • the first connection element has a comparatively small thickness of z. B. 0.5 to 1 millimeter and at its other end a thickness of about 2 millimeters.
  • the second attachment member has a thickness of z. B. about 2 millimeters and at its other end a thickness of about 2.5 to 3 millimeters.
  • the elastic behavior of the two attachment elements differs from one another and can be coordinated with one another in such a way that exactly a desired movement bearing of the latching arm is possible.
  • the connection element with the smaller thickness will elastically deform in a different way or more strongly or earlier than the thicker connection element.
  • the particular curved shape of the attachment organs influences the elastic behavior of the attachment organs and the movement of the latching arm.

Die Verbindungsvorrichtungen sind beispielsweise für Führungssysteme als sogenannte Teilauszüge mit zwei Führungsschienen oder Vollauszüge mit drei Führungsschienen, bezogen auf eine Auszug-Baueinheit, im Einsatz, wobei die Schienen zueinander teleskopartig bewegbar sind.The connecting devices are used, for example, for guide systems as so-called partial extensions with two guide rails or full extensions with three guide rails, based on an extension unit, with the rails being telescopically movable relative to one another.

In der Regel ist ein Schubelement wie beispielsweise eine Schublade, ein Ablageboden, ein Gargutträger oder dergleichen über genau zwei separate, gleichartige Baueinheiten eines Teilauszugs oder eines Vollauszugs verschieblich aufgenommen. Die jeweilige Baueinheit der Auszugführungen ist vorzugsweise an einer Innenseite eines Möbelkorpus oder eines Gehäuses eines Haushalts- bzw.

Aufgabe und Vorteile der ErfindungObject and advantages of the invention

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, eine Verbindungsvorrichtung für ein bewegbares Schubelement, ein Führungssystem und ein Möbel oder ein Haushaltsgerät im Hinblick auf eine technisch vorteilhafte Verbindung des Schubelements mit einer Führung verbessert bereitzustellen.The object of the present invention is to provide a connection device for a movable sliding element, a guide system and a piece of furniture or a household appliance that is improved with regard to a technically advantageous connection of the sliding element to a guide.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch den unabhängigen Anspruch gelöst.This object is solved by the independent claim.

In den abhängigen Ansprüchen sind zweckmäßige und vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung aufgezeigt.Expedient and advantageous developments of the invention are shown in the dependent claims.

Die Erfindung geht aus von einer Vorrichtung zum Verbinden eines bewegbaren Schubelements eines Möbels oder eines Haushaltsgeräts, wie zum Beispiel ein Küchengerät, mit einer Führungsschiene eines Führungssystems des Möbels oder des Haushaltsgeräts, wobei die Vorrichtung dazu ausgebildet ist, am bewegbaren Schubelement angeordnet zu werden. Vorzugsweise ist die Verbindungsvorrichtung derart ausgebildet, insbesondere mit einem Werkzeug an dem Schubelement befestigt zu werden. Im am Schubelement angebrachten Zustand der Verbindungsvorrichtung ist das Schubelement lösbar aber gesichert mit der Führungsschiene positionsrichtig manuell verbindbar und wieder demontierbar.The invention is based on a device for connecting a movable sliding element of a piece of furniture or a household appliance, such as a kitchen appliance, to a guide rail of a guiding system of the piece of furniture or the household appliance, the device being designed to be arranged on the movable sliding element. The connecting device is preferably designed in such a way that it can be fastened to the push element, in particular using a tool. When the connecting device is attached to the pushing element, the pushing element can be releasably but securely connected manually to the guide rail in the correct position and can be dismantled again.

Der Kern der Erfindung liegt darin, dass die Vorrichtung einen Rastarm mit einem Rastorgan aufweist, wobei im angeordneten Zustand der Vorrichtung das Rastorgan dazu ausgebildet ist, mit einem Rastelement, insbesondere mit einem Rastelement der Führungsschiene, zu koppeln, wobei der Rastarm als längliches Element vorhanden ist, wobei der Rastarm durch zwei voneinander beabstandete Anbindungsorgane mit der verbleibenden Vorrichtung verbunden ist, insbesondere durch genau zwei Anbindungsorgane, wobei die Anbindungsorgane quer, insbesondere senkrecht, zu einer Längserstreckung des Rastarms am Rastarm angreifen, wobei die Anbindungsorgane eine gebogene Form aufweisen, wobei die Anbindungsorgane gegensinning gebogen vorhanden sind, wobei die Anbindungsorgane elastisch vorhanden sind, so dass der Rastarm im Bereich des vorhandenen Rastorgans in einer Richtung quer zur Längserstreckung des Rastarms und in Richtung der Anbindungsorgane bewegbar ist, zum Beispiel verschieblich ist.The core of the invention lies in the fact that the device has a latching arm with a latching element, with the latching element being designed to couple with a latching element, in particular with a latching element of the guide rail, in the arranged state of the device, with the latching arm being present as an elongate element is, wherein the latching arm is connected to the remaining device by two spaced-apart attachment members, in particular by exactly two attachment members, the attachment members being transverse, in particular perpendicular, to a longitudinal extension of the locking arm act on the latching arm, with the attachment elements having a curved shape, with the attachment elements being bent in opposite directions, with the attachment elements being elastic, so that the attachment arm can be moved in the region of the existing attachment element in a direction transverse to the longitudinal extension of the attachment arm and in the direction of the attachment elements is, for example, is relocatable.

Im angeordneten Zustand der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung erstreckt sich eine Längsachse des länglichen Elements des Rastarms vorteilhafterweise zumindest annähernd parallel zu einer Bewegungsrichtung des Schubelements und/oder einer Bewegungsrichtung der Führungsschiene. Die Führungsschiene ist z. B. eine Schubelementschiene bzw. Bewegungsschiene des Möbel-Führungssystems.In the arranged state of the device according to the invention, a longitudinal axis of the elongate element of the locking arm advantageously extends at least approximately parallel to a direction of movement of the pusher element and/or a direction of movement of the guide rail. The guide rail is z. B. a sliding element rail or movement rail of the furniture guide system.

Vorzugsweise ist der Rastarm einstückig über die Anbindungsorgane mit dem verbleibenden Teil der Verbindungsvorrichtung verbunden. Demgemäß sind der Rastarm, die Anbindungsorgane und der verbleibende Teil der Verbindungsvorrichtung vorzugsweise einstückig ausgebildet, was herstellungstechnisch bzw. wirtschaftlich vorteilhaft ist. Die Bewegbarkeit des Rastarms zum verbleibenden Teil der Verbindungsvorrichtung quer zu seiner Längserstreckung ist durch eine im Wesentlichen erste bzw. lineare Bewegungskomponente bestimmt. Eine untergeordnete zweite Bewegungskomponente kann eine Schwenk- bzw. Drehbewegungskomponente sein, welche mit der ersten linearen Bewegungskomponente überlagernd stattfindet. Die Anbindungsorgane realisieren eine Lagerung in der Art einer sich mitbewegenden Schwenklagerstelle eines um eine Schwenkachse schwenkenden Rastarms. Mit den Anbindungsorganen ist eine Gelenkstelle zwischen dem Rastarm und dem verbleibenden Teil der Verbindungsvorrichtung bereitgestellt.The locking arm is preferably connected in one piece to the remaining part of the connecting device via the connecting elements. Accordingly, the latching arm, the connecting elements and the remaining part of the connecting device are preferably designed in one piece, which is advantageous in terms of production technology and economics. The mobility of the latching arm relative to the remaining part of the connecting device transversely to its longitudinal extent is determined by an essentially first or linear movement component. A subordinate second movement component can be a pivoting or rotary movement component, which takes place superimposed on the first linear movement component. The connecting organs implement a mounting in the manner of a pivot bearing point that moves along with a locking arm that pivots about a pivot axis. With the connection organs, an articulation point is provided between the locking arm and the remaining part of the connection device.

Die beiden Anbindungsorgane stellen eine Art Viergelenkanordnung zur Bewegungslagerung des Rastarms dar. Vorzugsweise sind mit den Anbindungsorganen zumindest zwei voneinander getrennte Anlenkpunkte am Rastarm und an dem verbleibenden Teil der Verbindungsvorrichtung ausgebildet. Mit der einstückigen Ausbildung des Rastarms am verbleibenden Teil der Verbindungsvorrichtung über die Anbindungsorgane ist eine elastische Bewegung bzw. eine Federbewegung möglich, welche trotzdem im Wesentlichen als lineare Bewegung bzw. als Schiebebewegung charakterisiert ist. Vorteilhafterweise kann mit den vergleichsweise einfach ausbildbaren Anbindungsorganen auf ein zur verbleibenden Vorrichtung zusätzliches bzw. separates Bauteil wie z. B. ein linear wirkendes Federelement, das die elastische Bewegung des Rastorgans bewirkt, oder auf eine vergleichsweise komplexe Gelenkanordnung verzichtet werden.The two connecting elements represent a type of four-bar arrangement for the movement mounting of the locking arm. Preferably, the connecting elements form at least two separate articulation points on the locking arm and on the remaining part of the connecting device. With Due to the one-piece design of the locking arm on the remaining part of the connecting device via the connecting elements, an elastic movement or a spring movement is possible, which is nevertheless essentially characterized as a linear movement or as a sliding movement. Advantageously, with the relatively easy to form connection organs on a remaining device additional or separate component such. B. a linearly acting spring element that causes the elastic movement of the locking member, or dispensed with a comparatively complex joint arrangement.

Andererseits wird trotz der einstückigen Anbindungsorgane im Wesentlichen keine Schwenkbewegung bereitgestellt, sondern eine Schiebebewegung des Rastorgans, was im Hinblick auf eine sichere Verbindung in unterschiedlichen Verbindungspositionen in seitlicher Richtung des Schubelements betrachtet vorteilhaft ist. Denn die Verbindung von Rastorgan und Rastelement muss einen in der Praxis regelmäßig auftretenden Toleranzausgleich ermöglichen. Die sichere Verbindung bzw. Kopplung von Schubelement und Führungsschiene durch das richtige Rasten von Rastorgan und Rastelement wird immer erreicht, auch dann, wenn in Richtung quer zur Längserstreckung des Rastarms bzw. seitlich eine geringfügige Abweichung von einer idealen Position des Schubelements und/oder der Führungsschiene auftritt, was in der Praxis durch z. B. Montagetoleranzen bedingt sein kann.On the other hand, despite the one-piece connecting elements, essentially no pivoting movement is provided, but rather a sliding movement of the latching element, which is advantageous with regard to a secure connection in different connection positions in the lateral direction of the sliding element. This is because the connection between the latching element and the latching element must enable tolerance compensation, which occurs regularly in practice. The secure connection or coupling of the pusher element and guide rail is always achieved by the correct locking of the locking member and locking element, even if there is a slight deviation from an ideal position of the pusher element and/or the guide rail in the direction transverse to the longitudinal extent of the locking arm or laterally occurs, which in practice by z. B. may be due to assembly tolerances.

Vorteilhafterweise kann somit am Rastarm genau ein Rastorgan ausreichend sein, um eine sichere Kopplung bzw. Verrastung mit dem in Längsrichtung des Rastarms betrachtet vorzugsweise mehrfach gezahntem Rastelement einzurichten, in sämtlichen möglichen Relativpositionen von Schubelement und Führungsschiene.Exactly one latching element on the latching arm can thus advantageously be sufficient to set up secure coupling or latching with the latching element, which is preferably multi-toothed viewed in the longitudinal direction of the latching arm, in all possible relative positions of pusher element and guide rail.

Bei bekannten Anordnungen ist es unter anderem nachteilig, dass eine Mehrzahl von Rastorganen bzw. eine komplexe Kontur des Rastorgans notwendig ist, um mit einer Rastkontur z. B. führungsschienenseitig zusammenzuwirken, die notwendigerweise eine Mehrzahl von verschiedenen Rastpositionen bereitstellt. Außerdem nimmt die Rast- bzw. Haltequalität der einrichtbaren Verrastung bei solchen Anordnungen bei Abweichungen von einer idealen Relativposition von Schubelement und Führungsschiene in seitlicher Richtung merklich ab. Denn bei bekannten Anordnungen verändert sich bei einer Schwenkbewegung eines Rastarms mit einem Rastorgan mit zunehmend größerer Schwenk-Auslenkungen des Rastarms eine Ausrichtung des Rastorgans relativ zum fest an der Führungsschiene vorhandenen Rastelement. Die Folge ist ein zunehmend schlechteres Ineinandergreifen bzw. Verrasten der miteinander koppelnden Abschnitte. Die Koppelqualität nimmt beim Stand der Technik mit zunehmender Schwenk-Auslenkung des Rastorgans ab. Dieser Nachteil wird erfindungsgemäß überwunden.In known arrangements, it is disadvantageous, among other things, that a plurality of latching elements or a complex contour of the latching element is necessary in order to achieve z. B. interact on the guide rail side, which necessarily provides a plurality of different locking positions. In addition, the latching or holding quality of the latching that can be set up in such arrangements decreases markedly in the lateral direction in the event of deviations from an ideal relative position of the pushing element and the guide rail. This is because in known arrangements, during a pivoting movement of a latching arm with a latching member, the alignment of the latching member relative to the latching element fixed to the guide rail changes as the pivoting deflection of the latching arm increases. The consequence is an increasingly poor interlocking or latching of the mutually coupling sections. In the prior art, the coupling quality decreases with increasing pivot deflection of the latching element. This disadvantage is overcome according to the invention.

Die Anbindungsorgane umfassen zum Beispiel ein erstes Anbindungsorgan, das an einer ersten Stelle in Längsrichtung des Rastarms betrachtet mit dem Rastarm verbunden ist. Ein zweites Anbindungsorgan ist in Längsrichtung des Rastarms betrachtet mit dem Rastarm an einer zweiten Stelle verbunden, wobei die zweite Stelle in Längsrichtung weiter weg vom Rastorgan liegt als die erste Stelle. Die erste Stelle und die zweite Stelle sind zum Beispiel über wenige Millimeter wie z. B. circa 5 Millimeter voneinander beabstandet. Die Gesamtlänge des Rastarms beträgt zum Beispiel circa 6 bis 8 Zentimeter. Die beiden Anbindungsorgane greifen am Rastarm über dessen Länge betrachtet im Bereich an, der benachbart zu einer Längsmitte des Rastarms vorhanden ist.The attachment elements include, for example, a first attachment element, which is connected to the latching arm at a first point, viewed in the longitudinal direction of the latching arm. A second attachment member is connected to the latch arm at a second location as viewed in the longitudinal direction of the latch arm, the second location being further away from the latch member in the longitudinal direction than the first location. The first digit and the second digit are, for example, a few millimeters such. B. about 5 millimeters apart. The total length of the locking arm is about 6 to 8 centimeters, for example. Viewed over its length, the two attachment elements grip the latching arm in the area that is adjacent to a longitudinal center of the latching arm.

Weiter ist es Vorteilhaft, dass der Rastarm ein Bedienelement aufweist, welches zum verbleibenden länglichen Element des Rastarms abgewinkelt vorhanden ist, so dass der Rastarm mittels des Bedienelements bewegbar ist. Das Bedienelement bildet einen Hebelarm bezüglich des Rastarms mit einer Momentenwirkung, so dass der Rastarm relativ zur verbleibenden Verbindungsvorrichtung um eine mit den Anbindungsorganen gebildete Lagerstelle des Rastarms bewegbar ist. Vorzugsweise weist der Rastarm einen vorderen Teillängsabschnitt auf, an dem das Rastorgan ausgebildet ist. Das Rastorgan ist vorzugsweise an einem freien Ende des Rastarms bzw. des vorderen Teillängsabschnitts vorhanden. Der vordere Teillängsabschnitt ist bevorzugt im Wesentlichen gerade gestaltet. Der Rastarm weist außerdem einen hinteren Teillängsabschnitt auf, der vorzugsweise ebenfalls gerade und abgewinkelt zum vorderen Teillängsabschnitt ausgerichtet ist und das Bedienelement umfasst. Beide Teillängsabschnitte weisen vorzugsweise etwa die gleiche Länge auf. Die beiden Anbindungsorgane sind vorzugsweise am vorderen Teillängsabschnitt verbunden mit dem Rastarm, insbesondere in der Nähe des Abschnitts, in welchem der vordere und der hintere Teillängsabschnitt zusammentreffen. Dieser Abschnitt bildet zum Beispiel eine zwischen den beiden Teillängsabschnitten vorhandene Abwinkelung des Rastarms.It is also advantageous that the latching arm has an operating element which is present at an angle to the remaining elongate element of the latching arm, so that the latching arm can be moved by means of the operating element. The operating element forms a lever arm with respect to the latching arm with a moment effect, so that the latching arm can be moved relative to the remaining connecting device around a bearing point of the latching arm formed with the connecting elements. Preferably the latching arm has a partial front longitudinal section on which the latching element is formed. The latching element is preferably present at a free end of the latching arm or of the front partial longitudinal section. The front partial longitudinal section is preferably designed to be essentially straight. The locking arm also has a rear partial longitudinal section, which is preferably also straight and angled to the front partial longitudinal section and includes the operating element. Both partial longitudinal sections preferably have approximately the same length. The two attachment members are preferably connected to the locking arm at the front partial longitudinal section, in particular in the vicinity of the section in which the front and rear partial longitudinal sections meet. This section forms, for example, a bend in the locking arm between the two partial longitudinal sections.

Grundsätzlich kann zusätzlich zu den zwei Anbindungsorganen zumindest ein weiteres Anbindungsorgan vorhanden sein bzw. am Rastarm angreifen.In principle, in addition to the two attachment elements, at least one additional attachment element can be present or act on the latching arm.

Das Bedienelement ermöglicht ein erleichtertes manuelles Entkoppeln des Rastarms bzw. des Rastorgans vom Rastelement. Das Bedienelement dient demgemäß dem Entkoppeln des Rastorgans, um unmittelbar anschließend das Schubelement vom Führungssystem wegzubewegen.The operating element enables easier manual decoupling of the latching arm or latching element from the latching element. Accordingly, the operating element is used to decouple the latching element in order to then immediately move the pushing element away from the guide system.

Demgegenüber erfolgt bei der Montage des Schubelements die eigentliche Koppelbewegung des Rastarms insbesondere durch eine selbsttätige Ausweichbewegung des Rastarms bei der Montage des Schubelements an der jeweiligen Führungsschiene, ohne dass auf das Bedienelement eingewirkt werden muss. Denn das Rastorgan wird bei der Montage des Schubelements an der Führungsschiene gegen einen Abschnitt des Rastelements gedrückt, weicht dadurch etwas elastisch aus und wird bis zu einer Vorraststellung und zu einer Endmontagestellung des Schubelements an der Führungsschiene so weit am Rastelement vorbeigeführt, bis eine Kopplung bzw. Rastung eingerichtet ist. Die Verrastung von Rastorgan und dem Gegenabschnitt am Rastelement erfolgt mit der Rückstellbewegung des Rastarms aufgrund der zuvor elastisch verformten Anbindungsorgane, da diese durch das Ausweichen kurzzeitig eine Vorspannung des Rastarms bewirken. Für die Ausweichbewegung des Rastarms aus einer Grund-bzw. Neutralstellung und das Vorbeibewegen des Rastorgans an dem Abschnitt des Rastelements bis in die Vorrast- und End-Raststellung ist eine von außen aufzubringende Kraft nötig. Dies geschieht indem ein Monteur das Schubelement mit der daran angebrachten Verbindungsvorrichtung als Ganzes an das am Möbel angebrachte Führungssystem richtig ausgerichtet heranbewegt, aufsetzt und in die Endstellung bringt. In aller Regel sind zwei Führungsschienen jeweils einer rechten und einer linken Baueinheit des Führungssystems am Möbel bzw. an dem Haushaltsgerät bzw. deren gegenüberliegenden Seitenwänden vorhanden. Zur Montage werden die jeweiligen Führungsschienen am Möbel bzw. Haushaltsgerät herausgeschoben, so dass das Aufsetzen des Schubelements an den Führungsschienen möglich ist.In contrast, the actual coupling movement of the latching arm takes place during assembly of the sliding element, in particular by an automatic evasive movement of the latching arm during assembly of the sliding element on the respective guide rail, without having to act on the operating element. This is because the latching element is pressed against a section of the latching element during assembly of the thrust element on the guide rail, deviates somewhat elastically as a result and is guided past the latching element up to a pre-latching position and a final assembly position of the thrust element on the guide rail until a coupling or detent set up is. The latching element and the mating section on the latching element are latched with the restoring movement of the latching arm due to the previously elastically deformed connection organs, since these cause a prestressing of the latching arm for a short time due to the deflection. For the evasive movement of the locking arm from a basic or. A force to be applied from the outside is required for the neutral position and for the locking element to move past the section of the locking element into the pre-locking and final locking position. This is done by a fitter moving the sliding element with the connecting device attached to it as a whole, correctly aligned to the guide system attached to the furniture, placing it and bringing it into the end position. As a rule, there are two guide rails, one on the right and one on the left of the guide system, on the piece of furniture or on the household appliance or on their opposite side walls. For assembly, the respective guide rails are pushed out on the piece of furniture or household appliance, so that the sliding element can be placed on the guide rails.

Die abgewinkelte Anordnung des Bedienelements am Rastarm ist mechanisch aufgrund einer Hebelwirkung auf den Rastarm vorteilhaft, wie auch für eine leichte Bedienbarkeit vorteilhaft.The angled arrangement of the control element on the locking arm is mechanically advantageous due to a leverage effect on the locking arm, as well as being advantageous for ease of use.

Ein weiterer Vorteil zeichnet sich dadurch aus, dass bei einer Positionierung des Rastarms der Rastarm sowohl eine Bewegung quer zu seiner Längserstreckung und/oder entlang seiner Längserstreckung, insbesondere parallel zu seiner Längserstreckung, durchführt, wobei bei einer Positionierung eine Bewegungsstrecke quer zu seiner Längserstreckung vergleichsweise größer ist, als eine Bewegungsstrecke längs zu seiner Längserstreckung. Bei der betrachteten Ausweichbewegung des Rastarms bei der Montage wird das Verhältnis der Bewegungsstrecke in Querrichtung zu einer Bewegungsstrecke in Längsrichtung im optimalen Fall maximal bzw. in Längsrichtung beträgt die Bewegungsstrecke z. B. Null Millimeter. Die Bewegungsstrecke in Querrichtung beträgt zum Beispiel 2 bis 5 Millimeter. Im Minimalfall der Längsbewegung findet keine Bewegung des Rastarms und insbesondere des Rastorgans in Längsrichtung statt. Dies bedeutet, dass idealerweise eine reine Querbewegung z. B. eine Quer-Schiebebewegung des Abschnitts bzw. des Bereichs des Rastarms mit dem Rastorgan relativ zur Längserstreckung des Rastarms stattfindet bzw. die Längsbewegung minimal wird.A further advantage is characterized in that when the latching arm is positioned, the latching arm moves transversely to its longitudinal extent and/or along its longitudinal extent, in particular parallel to its longitudinal extent, with a movement path transverse to its longitudinal extent being comparatively greater during positioning is, as a distance of movement along its length. In the case of the considered evasive movement of the locking arm during assembly, the ratio of the movement distance in the transverse direction to a movement distance in the longitudinal direction is maximum in the optimal case or in the longitudinal direction the movement distance is z. B. Zero millimeters. The Movement distance in the transverse direction is, for example, 2 to 5 millimeters. In the minimal case of longitudinal movement, there is no movement of the latching arm and in particular of the latching element in the longitudinal direction. This means that ideally a pure transverse movement z. B. a transverse sliding movement of the section or the area of the latching arm with the latching member takes place relative to the longitudinal extension of the latching arm or the longitudinal movement is minimal.

Eine Positionierung bzw. Bewegung des Rastarms erfolgt beispielsweise durch einen Eingriff eines Nutzers auf die Verbindungsvorrichtung, zum Beispiel, wenn dieser auf das Bedienelement einwirkt beispielsweise beim Entkoppeln, oder bei der Montage des Schubelements an der Führungsschiene.The locking arm is positioned or moved, for example, by a user engaging in the connecting device, for example when the user acts on the operating element, for example when decoupling or when mounting the sliding element on the guide rail.

Auch von Vorteil ist es, dass das Rastorgan als ein insbesondere einziger Rastzahn vorhanden ist. Damit wird mit einer einfachen Form des Rastorgans eine zuverlässige und stabile Rastung erreicht. Bezogen auf einen gegebenen Bauraum kann genau ein Rastzahn stabiler gestaltet und einfacher hergestellt werden, als mehrere kleinere Rastzähne.It is also advantageous that the latching element is present as a single latching tooth, in particular. Reliable and stable locking is thus achieved with a simple form of the locking element. Based on a given installation space, exactly one ratchet tooth can be made more stable and easier to manufacture than several smaller ratchet teeth.

Eine vorteilhafte Modifikation der Erfindung ist dadurch gegeben, dass die Anbindungsorgane im Wesentlichen als quaderförmige Wandelemente ausgebildet sind. Die Quaderform bezieht sich insbesondere auf eine Kontur bei Draufsicht auf jeweilige Flächenseiten der Anbindungsorgane. Jedes der zwei Anbindungsorgane weist eine vergleichsweise geringe Dicke quer zur Länge des Anbindungsorgans auf, z. B. ein erstes Anbindungsorgan eine Dicke von circa 0,5 bis 1 Millimeter und ein zweites Anbindungsorgan z. B. circa 2 Millimeter. Ein Abstand zwischen den beiden Anbindungsorganen in Längsrichtung am Rastarm beträgt z. B. circa 4 bis 6 Millimeter. Eine Anlenkstelle des ersten Anbindungsorgans am restlichen Rastarm weist in Längsrichtung des Rastarms betrachtet einen geringeren Abstand zum Rastorgan auf als eine Anlenkstelle des zweiten Anbindungsorgans am restlichen Rastarm. Die Anbindungsorgane sind in Längserstreckung des Rastarms demgemäß vorzugsweise versetzt. Eine auf zumindest einer Seite der beiden Anbindungsorgane zusammenfallende Anlenkung der beiden Anbindungsorgane z. B. am Rastarm oder am gegenüberliegenden Teil des Grundbauteils ist ebenfalls denkbar.An advantageous modification of the invention is given by the fact that the attachment members are designed essentially as cuboid wall elements. The cuboid shape relates in particular to a contour when viewed from above on the respective surface sides of the attachment organs. Each of the two attachment members has a comparatively small thickness across the length of the attachment member, e.g. B. a first attachment member has a thickness of about 0.5 to 1 millimeter and a second attachment member z. B. about 2 millimeters. A distance between the two connection organs in the longitudinal direction on the locking arm is z. B. about 4 to 6 millimeters. Viewed in the longitudinal direction of the locking arm, an articulation point of the first attachment element on the rest of the locking arm is at a smaller distance from the attachment element than an articulation point of the second attachment element on the rest of the attachment arm. The connection organs are in the longitudinal extension of the locking arm accordingly preferably offset. A coincident on at least one side of the two attachment organs articulation of the two attachment organs z. B. on the locking arm or on the opposite part of the base component is also conceivable.

Das Anbindungsorgan ist zum Beispiel streifenartig oder beispielsweise plättchenartig oder lamellenartig ausgestaltet. Die Anbindungsorgane weisen jeweils eine gebogene Form auf, die zueinander gegensinnig gebogen sind. Ein Anbindungsorgan ist beispielsweise als ein wandartiger, dünner Stegabschnitt gestaltet.The attachment element is designed, for example, in a strip-like manner or, for example, in a plate-like or lamellar manner. The connection organs each have a curved shape, which are bent in opposite directions to one another. A connection element is designed, for example, as a wall-like, thin web section.

Das erste Anbindungsorgan weist in Längsrichtung des Rastarms eine zum Rastorgan gerichtete Seite auf, die konkav gebogen verläuft und entsprechend eine konvex gebogene gegenüberliegende Seite, die vom Rastorgan abgewandt ist.In the longitudinal direction of the latching arm, the first attachment element has a side directed towards the latching element, which is curved in a concave manner, and correspondingly has a convexly curved opposite side, which faces away from the latching element.

Das zweite Anbindungsorgan weist in Längsrichtung des Rastarms eine in Richtung zum Rastorgan gerichtete Seite auf, die konvex gebogen verläuft und in Richtung weg vom Rastorgan entsprechend eine konkav gebogene gegenüberliegende Seite. Auch von Vorteil ist es, dass eine Dicke eines Anbindungsorgans in Richtung Rastarm abnimmt. Die Dicken-Abnahme erfolgt vorzugsweise stufenlos bzw. kontinuierlich über die Länge des Anbindungsorgans.In the longitudinal direction of the latching arm, the second attachment element has a side which is directed in the direction of the latching element and extends in a convex curve, and in the direction away from the latching element correspondingly has a concavely curved opposite side. It is also advantageous that the thickness of a connection element decreases in the direction of the locking arm. The decrease in thickness preferably takes place steplessly or continuously over the length of the attachment element.

Der Rastarm und die Anbindungsorgane gehören vorzugsweise zu einem Grundbauteil der Verbindungsvorrichtung, das einstückig ausgebildet ist. Die Verbindungsvorrichtung umfasst vorzugsweise außerdem ein am Grundbauteil lösbar ansteckbares und daran schwenkbares Stellbauteil mit einem Bedienelement und einem Höhenverstellelement.The latching arm and the connecting elements preferably belong to a basic component of the connecting device, which is designed in one piece. The connecting device preferably also comprises an adjusting component which can be detachably attached to the base component and pivoted thereon and has an operating element and a height adjustment element.

Ein Anbindungsorgan ist in seiner Erstreckung schräg oder quer ausgerichtet zur Längsrichtung des Rastarms.The extension of a connecting member is oriented obliquely or transversely to the longitudinal direction of the latching arm.

Ein Ende eines Anbindungsorgans ist am Rastarm verbunden und ein gegenüberliegendes Ende des Anbindungsorgans ist am verbleibenden Teil des Grundbauteils verbunden.One end of a tie is connected to the latch arm and an opposite end of the tie is connected to the remainder of the base member.

Zwischen den beiden dem Rastarm abgewandten Enden der Anbindungsorgane ist vorzugsweise ein diese Enden verbindender Wandabschnitt des Grundbauteils der Verbindungsvorrichtung vorhanden. Der verbindende Wandabschnitt des Grundbauteils ist so ausgebildet, dass bei einer elastischen Verformung der Anbindungsorgane, wenn der Rastarm sich bewegt bzw. verschiebt, sich der Wandabschnitt zumindest nahezu mechanisch starr verhält bzw. sich nicht wesentlich elastisch verformt. Damit wird eine Fest-Lagerung der beiden Anbindungsorgane an ihrem jeweiligen dem Rastarm abgewandten Ende realisiert. Die Anbindungsorgane sind demgemäß so elastisch vorhanden, dass beim Bewegen bzw. Verschieben des Rastarms die Anbindungsorgane sich jeweils zwischen ihren am Rastarm angreifenden und am verbleibenden Grundbauteil angreifenden Enden elastisch verformen. Die Verformung erfolgt beim Anbringen des Schubelements an der Führungsschiene und beim Abnehmen des Schubelements durch manuelles Einwirken z. B. eines Monteurs oder Nutzers.A wall section of the base component of the connecting device connecting these ends is preferably present between the two ends of the connecting elements facing away from the latching arm. The connecting wall section of the base component is designed in such a way that with an elastic deformation of the connection organs when the latching arm moves or shifts, the wall section behaves at least almost mechanically rigidly or is not significantly elastically deformed. In this way, a fixed mounting of the two connecting elements is realized at their respective ends facing away from the latching arm. The connection elements are accordingly available so elastically that when the locking arm is moved or shifted, the connection elements deform elastically between their ends which act on the locking arm and on the remaining basic component. The deformation occurs when attaching the pusher to the guide rail and when removing the pusher by manual action z. B. a fitter or user.

Sowohl die am verbleibenden Grundbauteil angreifenden Enden der beiden Anbindungsorgane als auch die am Rastarm verbunden angreifenden Enden der Anbindungsorgane sind über ihre gesamte Höhe, also quer zur Längserstreckung des Rastarms und quer zur Bewegungs- bzw. Schieberichtung des Rastarms, mit dem verbleibenden Grundbauteil und dem Rastarm verbunden. Die Anbindungsorgane weisen über ihre Länge vorzugsweise eine durchgehend gleiche Höhe auf.Both the ends of the two attachment elements that act on the remaining basic component and the ends of the attachment elements that engage the locking arm are connected to the remaining basic component and the locking arm over their entire height, i.e. transversely to the longitudinal extension of the locking arm and transverse to the movement or sliding direction of the locking arm tied together. The attachment members preferably have the same height throughout their length.

Eine andere Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ergibt sich dadurch, dass eine Dicke eines Anbindungsorgans größer ist, als eine Dicke des weiteren Anbindungsorgans. Unter der Dicke eines Anbindungsorgans ist eine Materialdicke bzw. die Dicke über die wesentliche Erstreckung bzw. eine gemittelte bzw. mittlere Dicke des Anbindungsorgans zu verstehen.Another advantageous embodiment of the invention results from the thickness of one attachment element being greater than the thickness of the other attachment element. The thickness of a connecting element is to be understood as meaning a material thickness or the thickness over the essential extension or an averaged or average thickness of the connecting element.

Das erste Anbindungsorgan besitzt vorzugsweise eine geringere mittlere Dicke als das zweite Anbindungsorgan oder umgekehrt.The first attachment element preferably has a smaller average thickness than the second attachment element, or vice versa.

Vorzugsweise weist das erste Anbindungsorgan an seinem mit dem Rastarm verbundenen Ende eine vergleichsweise geringe Dicke von z. B. 0,5 bis 1 Millimeter auf und an seinem anderen Ende eine Dicke von circa 2 Millimeter.Preferably, the first connection element has a comparatively small thickness of z. B. 0.5 to 1 millimeter and at its other end a thickness of about 2 millimeters.

Vorzugsweise weist das zweite Anbindungsorgan an seinem mit dem Rastarm verbundenen Ende eine Dicke von z. B. circa 2 Millimeter auf und an seinem anderen Ende eine Dicke von circa 2,5 bis 3 Millimeter.Preferably, the second attachment member has a thickness of z. B. about 2 millimeters and at its other end a thickness of about 2.5 to 3 millimeters.

Mit der jeweiligen Dicke und/oder der Form der Anbindungsorgane ist insbesondere das elastische Verhalten der beiden Anbindungsorgane untereinander verschieden und derart aufeinander abstimmbar, dass exakt eine gewünschte Bewegungslagerung des Rastarms möglich ist. Bei einer Krafteinwirkung von außen auf den Rastarm, die zu einer Bewegung des Rastarms relativ zum verbleibenden Teil des Grundbauteils führt, wird das Anbindungsorgan mit der geringeren Dicke sich in einer anderen Weise bzw. stärker bzw. früher elastisch verformen, als das dickere Anbindungsorgan. Neben der Dicke der Anbindungsorgane beeinflusst die jeweilige insbesondere gebogene Form der Anbindungsorgane das elastische Verhalten der Anbindungsorgane bzw. die Bewegung des Rastarms.With the respective thickness and/or the shape of the attachment elements, in particular the elastic behavior of the two attachment elements differs from one another and can be coordinated with one another in such a way that exactly a desired movement bearing of the latching arm is possible. When an external force is applied to the latching arm, which causes the latching arm to move relative to the remaining part of the base component, the connection element with the smaller thickness will elastically deform in a different way or more strongly or earlier than the thicker connection element. In addition to the thickness of the attachment organs, the particular curved shape of the attachment organs influences the elastic behavior of the attachment organs and the movement of the latching arm.

Von Vorteil ist es überdies, dass die Vorrichtung ein Rastelement aufweist, welches als von der verbleibenden Vorrichtung separates, einzelnes Bauteil vorhanden ist, wobei das Rastelement ein Anbringelement aufweist, wobei das Anbringelement dazu ausgebildet ist, das Rastelement an eine Stirnseite einer Führungsschiene anzuordnen, wobei das Rastelement dazu ausgebildet ist, im angeordneten Zustand der Vorrichtung mit dem Rastorgan der Vorrichtung zu verrasten.It is also advantageous that the device has a latching element which is present as a separate, individual component from the remaining device, with the latching element having an attachment element, with the attachment element being designed to arrange the latching element on an end face of a guide rail, with the latching element is designed to latch with the latching element of the device when the device is in the arranged state.

Vorzugsweise umfasst die Verbindungsvorrichtung zum einen das Hauptteil mit dem Grundbauteil und dem Stellbauteil, die beispielsweise miteinander zusammengesteckt sind, für dessen Anbringung an dem Schubelement, insbesondere im Bereich einer Schubelement-Unterseite, und zum anderen das Rastelement, das an der Führungsschiene vormontierbar ist. Das an der Stirnseite der Führungsschiene vorzugsweise ansteckbare Rastelement, zum Beispiel aus einem Kunststoffmaterial, bildet im angebrachten Zustand an der Führungsschiene außerdem im Bereich der Führungsschienen-Stirnseite einen Eingreifabschnitt, an dem im passend zusammenwirkenden Verbindungszustand des Hauptteils und des Rastelements Eingreifmittel am Grundbauteil eingreifen. Der Eingreifabschnitt und die Eingreifmittel sind so abgestimmt, dass beim Erreichen des verrasteten Zustands und im Rastzustand von Rastorgan und Rastelement die Eingreifmittel in einer Höhenrichtung und/oder in einer quer dazu verlaufenden Seitenrichtung der Verbindungsvorrichtung ein Spiel ermöglicht ist, zwischen den Eingreifmitteln und Anschlägen des Eingreifabschnitts.Preferably, the connecting device comprises on the one hand Main part with the base component and the adjusting component, which are plugged together, for example, for its attachment to the pusher element, in particular in the area of a pusher element underside, and on the other hand the locking element, which can be preassembled on the guide rail. The latching element, which can preferably be attached to the end face of the guide rail and is made of a plastic material, for example, when attached to the guide rail also forms an engagement section in the area of the end face of the guide rail, on which engaging means on the base component engage when the main part and the latching element are in a matingly interacting connected state. The engagement section and the engagement means are coordinated in such a way that when the latched state is reached and the latching element and latching element are in the latched state, the engagement means allow play in a vertical direction and/or in a lateral direction of the connecting device running transversely thereto, between the engagement means and stops of the engagement section .

Damit ist ein seitliches Spiel und/oder ein Spiel in Höhenrichtung des mit der Vorrichtung an der Führungsschiene angebrachten Schubelements möglich.This allows lateral play and/or play in the vertical direction of the pusher element attached to the guide rail with the device.

Außerdem wird eine Vorrichtung zum Verbinden eines bewegbaren Schubelements eines Möbels oder eines Haushaltsgerätes, wie zum Beispiel ein Küchengerät, mit einer Führungsschiene eines Führungssystems des Möbels oder des Haushaltsgeräts vorgeschlagen. Erfindungsgemäß weißt die Vorrichtung Federmittel auf, wobei die Federmittel derart vorhanden sind, so dass im angeordneten Zustand der Vorrichtung am Schubelement die Kopplung des Rastorgans mit dem Rastelement in einer Richtung entlang der Längserstreckung des Rastarms vorgespannt vorhanden ist. Die Federmittel sind vorzugsweise am Rastelement als z. B. zwei elastisch ausweichbare Federstege gebildet.In addition, a device for connecting a movable sliding element of a piece of furniture or a household appliance, such as a kitchen appliance, to a guide rail of a guide system of the piece of furniture or the household appliance is proposed. According to the invention, the device has spring means, the spring means being present in such a way that when the device is arranged on the push element, the coupling of the latching element with the latching element is pretensioned in a direction along the longitudinal extent of the latching arm. The spring means are preferably on the locking element as z. B. formed two elastically deflectable spring bars.

Vorteilhafterweise ist durch die Federmittel ein Toleranzausgleich möglich, insbesondere ein Abstandsausgleich zwischen einer Frontseite des Schubelements und einer Stirnseite der Führungsschiene realisiert. In der Praxis können z. B. fertigungsbedingt geringe Abweichungen von einem Ideal-Montagezustand des Schubelements an der Führungsschiene auftreten, so dass im geringen Millimeterbereich unterschiedliche Abstände von betreffenden Abschnitten möglich sind. Derartige Abweichungen lassen sich durch die Federmittel ausgleichen, so dass eine spielfreie Verbindung ohne unerwünschte Vibrationen im Nutzzustand bzw. eine Montage ohne Klemmung möglich ist.Advantageously, by the spring means Tolerance compensation possible, in particular a distance compensation between a front side of the pusher and a front side of the guide rail realized. In practice z. B. production-related slight deviations from an ideal assembly state of the pusher element on the guide rail occur, so that different distances from relevant sections are possible in the small millimeter range. Such deviations can be compensated for by the spring means, so that a play-free connection without undesired vibrations when in use or assembly without clamping is possible.

Des Weiteren wird ein Führungssystem zur Bewegungsführung eines Schubelements eines Möbels oder eines Haushaltgeräts, wie zum Beispiel ein Küchengerät, vorgeschlagen, mit einer Führungsschiene, welche dem Schubelement zuordenbar ist, wobei eine Vorrichtung nach einer der oben genannten Ausbildungen vorhanden ist.Furthermore, a guide system for guiding the movement of a pusher element of a piece of furniture or a household appliance, such as a kitchen appliance, is proposed, with a guide rail that can be assigned to the pusher element, with a device according to one of the above-mentioned configurations being present.

Die Erfindung erstreckt sich außerdem auf ein Möbel oder Haushaltsgerät mit einem Führungssystem gemäß der vorgenannten Art. Damit lassen sich an dem Möbel bzw. Haushaltsgerät die genannten Vorteile verwirklichen.The invention also extends to a piece of furniture or a household appliance with a guide system of the aforementioned type. The advantages mentioned can thus be realized on the piece of furniture or household appliance.

Für sich entsprechende Elemente unterschiedlicher Ausführungsbeispiele sind nachfolgend teilweise die gleichen Bezugszeichen verwendet.In some cases, the same reference symbols are used below for corresponding elements of different exemplary embodiments.

Figur 1 zeigt stark schematisiert ein erfindungsgemäßes Möbel 1 in einem Nutzzustand mit einem hohlen quaderförmigen Möbelkorpus 2 und einem als Schublade 3 ausgebildeten Schubelement, wobei die Schublade 3 am Möbelkorpus 2 verschieblich aufgenommenen ist. Der Möbelkorpus 2 umfasst zwei gegenüberliegende vertikale Seitenwände 4 und 5, zwischen denen die Schublade 3 über ein erfindungsgemäßes Führungssystem mit teleskopierbaren Führungsmitteln bzw. einem ersten Schienen-Vollauszug 6 und einen zweiten Schienen-Vollauszug 7 aus einem im Inneren des Möbelkorpus 2 untergebrachten Zustand in horizontaler Richtung aus dem Möbelkorpus 2 gemäß P1 herausziehbar und in entgegengesetzter Richtung gemäß P2 hineinschiebbar ist. In Fig. 1 ist die Schublade 3 im maximal bzw. vollständig aus dem Inneren des Möbelkorpus 2 herausbewegten Zustand gezeigt. Damit lässt sich nahezu ungehindert von oben auf das Stauvolumen der Schublade 3 zugreifen. figure 1 1 shows a highly schematized piece of furniture 1 according to the invention in a used state with a hollow cuboid furniture body 2 and a sliding element designed as a drawer 3 , the drawer 3 being slidably accommodated on the furniture body 2 . The furniture body 2 comprises two opposite vertical side walls 4 and 5, between which the drawer 3 can be moved horizontally via a guide system according to the invention with telescoping guide means or a first fully-extended rail 6 and a second fully-extended rail 7 from a position housed in the interior of the furniture body 2 Can be pulled out of the furniture body 2 according to P1 and pushed in in the opposite direction according to P2. In 1 the drawer 3 is shown in the maximum or complete state moved out of the interior of the furniture body 2 . This allows almost unhindered access to the storage volume of the drawer 3 from above.

Wenn die Schublade 3 anstelle der Schienen-Vollauszüge 6, 7 jeweils ein Schienen-Teilauszug verwendet, lässt sich die Schublade 3 im maximal weit herausbewegten Zustand nicht so weit aus dem Inneren des Möbelkorpus 2 in Richtung P1 herausbewegen, wie dies mit den Schienen-Vollauszüge 6, 7 gemäß der Darstellung in Fig. 1 möglich ist. Das Frontelement 12 ist dann näher zur offenen vorderen Seite des Möbelkorpus 2 als dies bei der Schublade 3 gemäß Fig. 1 gezeigt ist.If the drawer 3 uses a partial extension rail instead of the full extension rails 6, 7, the drawer 3 cannot be moved as far out of the interior of the furniture carcass 2 in direction P1 when it has been moved as far as possible, as is the case with the full extension rails 6, 7 as shown in 1 is possible. The front element 12 is then closer to the open front side of the furniture body 2 than is the case with the drawer 3 according to FIG 1 is shown.

Der innen an der Seitenwand 4 angeschraubte Schienen-Vollauszug 6 befindet sich gegenüber auf gleicher vertikaler Höhe zu dem an der Seitenwand 5 angeschraubten in Figur 1 verdeckten Schienen-Vollauszug 7, welcher gestrichelt angedeutet ist.The full extension rail 6 screwed to the inside of the side wall 4 is located opposite at the same vertical height as the one screwed to the side wall 5 figure 1 concealed rail full extension 7, which is indicated by dashed lines.

Im Möbelkorpus 2 ist oberhalb der Schublade 3 eine über Schienen-Vollauszüge 8 und 9 entsprechend geführte weitere Schublade unterbringbar, die in Figur 1 nicht dargestellt ist.In the furniture body 2, above the drawer 3, another drawer can be accommodated, which is guided accordingly via full extension rails 8 and 9, which in figure 1 is not shown.

Die Schublade 3 weist gegenüberliegende Schubladen-Seitenwände 10, 11 auf, welche jeweils eine aufgebaute Hohlkammerzarge umfasst. Außerdem umfasst die Schublade 3 ein Frontelement 12, eine dazu in horizontaler Richtung gegenüberliegende Rückwand 13 und einen horizontal sich erstreckenden Schubladenboden 14, welcher an die Schubladen-Seitenwände 10, 11, das Frontelement 12 und die Rückwand 13 heranreicht bzw. mit diesen verbunden ist.The drawer 3 has opposite drawer side walls 10, 11, each of which includes a built-up hollow chamber frame. In addition, the drawer 3 comprises a front element 12, a rear wall 13 lying horizontally opposite thereto and a horizontally extending drawer bottom 14, which reaches up to the drawer side walls 10, 11, the front element 12 and the rear wall 13 or is connected to them.

Die Figuren 2 und 3 zeigen keine Unterflur Schubelement-Verbindung mit erfindungsgemäßer Verbindungsvorrichtung im Bereich einer Korpus-Seitenwand 5, sondern eine Hohlkammerzargen-Verbindung im Ausschnitt einer Schublade 3 mit einem Schubladenboden 14 und einer als Hohlkammerzarge 15 ausgebildeten Schubladen-Seitenwand 11 und einer Rückwand 13. Die Schublade 3 ist über zwei Baueinheiten eines erfindungsgemäßen Führungssystems am Möbelkorpus 2 bzw. über einen erfindungsgemäßen Schienen-Vollauszug 16 an der Seitenwand 5 und auf gleiche Weise über eine weitere Hohlkammerzarge der Schublade 3 an der in Fig. 2 nicht ersichtlichen Seitenwand 4 aufgenommen. An der Seitenwand 4 erfolgt die Aufnahme über eine weitere Baueinheit bzw. einen weiteren erfindungsgemäßen Vollauszug, womit die Schublade 3 linear horizontal in die Richtungen P1 und P2 verschieblich ist.The Figures 2 and 3 do not show an underfloor sliding element connection with a connection device according to the invention in the area of a body side wall 5, but rather a hollow chamber frame connection in the cutout of a drawer 3 with a drawer base 14 and a drawer side wall 11 designed as a hollow chamber frame 15 and a rear wall 13. The drawer 3 is via two structural units of a guide system according to the invention on the furniture body 2 or via a full extension rail 16 according to the invention on the side wall 5 and in the same way via a further hollow chamber frame of the drawer 3 on the in 2 not visible side wall 4 was added. On the side wall 4, the recording takes place via a further structural unit or a further full extension according to the invention, with which the drawer 3 can be displaced linearly and horizontally in the directions P1 and P2.

Die Hohlkammerzarge 15 aus vorzugsweise einem gebogenen Blechmaterial weist ein äußeres Gehäuse 15a und eine Innenstruktur 15b auf, so dass der Vollauszug 16 im Innenvolumen der Hohlkammerzarge 15 versenkt unterbringbar ist. An einer Innenseite der Hohlkammerzarge 15 in deren unterem Abschnitt ist diese zur Aufnahme eines Längsrandes des Schubladenbodens 14 ausgebildet.The hollow chamber frame 15 preferably made of a bent sheet metal material has an outer housing 15a and an inner structure 15b, so that the full extension 16 can be accommodated countersunk in the inner volume of the hollow chamber frame 15. On an inner side of the hollow chamber frame 15 in its lower section, this is designed to accommodate a longitudinal edge of the drawer bottom 14 .

Der als eine Baueinheit des Führungssystems gebildete erfindungsgemäße Vollauszug 16 umfasst drei zueinander teleskopierbare Führungsschienen bzw. eine Korpusschiene 17, eine Mittelschiene 18 und eine Schubelementschiene 19.The full extension 16 according to the invention, which is formed as a structural unit of the runner system, comprises three mutually telescoping guide rails or a body rail 17, a middle rail 18 and a sliding element rail 19.

Die Mittelschiene 18 ist als Hohlprofil ausgebildet.The middle rail 18 is designed as a hollow profile.

Ein zu bewegendes Schubelement wie die Schublade 3 wird mit der Schubelementschiene 19 gekoppelt bzw. verbunden, zum Beispiel an der Hohlkammerzarge 15 fixiert, wohingegen die Korpusschiene mit dem feststehenden Teil des Möbels verbunden wird. Wenn der Vollauszug 16 als Unterflurführung verwendet wird, stützt sich eine Unterseite eines Schubelements bzw. dessen Boden auf einer Oberseite 19a der Schubelementschiene 19 ab. Ein am hinteren Ende der Schubelementschiene 19 nach oben abstehendes Hakenelement 19b bildet einen Anschlag für einen Abschnitt einer rückwärtige Außenseite des Schubelements, wobei zur genauen Positionierung ein parallel zur Oberseite 19a abgewinkelter Abschnitt des Hakenelement 19b in eine passend vorbereitete Vertiefung in der rückwärtige Außenseite des Schubelements eingreift. Damit ist in Fig. 4 auch der auf den Nutzzustand hintere Bereich des Vollauszugs 16 festgelegt, in Fig. 4 auf der linken Seite, bzw. ein im Nutzzustand vorderer Bereich des Vollauszugs 16 festgelegt, in Fig. 4 auf der rechten Seite. Eine im Nutzzustand des Vollauszugs 16 horizontale lineare Schieberichtung 30 der Schienen 18 und 19 nach vorne bzw. nach hinten ist in Fig. 4 durch einen Doppelpfeil angedeutet.A sliding element to be moved, such as the drawer 3, is coupled or connected to the sliding element rail 19, for example fixed to the hollow chamber frame 15, whereas the body rail is connected to the stationary part of the furniture. If the full extension 16 is used as an underfloor guide, an underside of a sliding element or its floor is supported on an upper side 19a of the sliding element rail 19 . A hook element 19b protruding upwards at the rear end of the push element rail 19 forms a stop for a section of a rear outside of the push element, with a section of the hook element 19b angled parallel to the upper side 19a engaging in a suitably prepared recess in the rear outside of the push element for precise positioning . That's in 4 the rear area of the full extension 16 is also specified for the use state, in 4 on the left side, or a front area of the full extension 16 when in use 4 on the right side. A horizontal linear sliding direction 30 of the rails 18 and 19 forwards or backwards when the full extension 16 is in use is in 4 indicated by a double arrow.

Außerdem umfasst der Vollauszug 16 einen ersten bzw. unteren Laufwagen 20 mit daran angeordneten Lagerkörpern, wobei der Laufwagen 20 zwischen der Korpusschiene 17 und der Mittelschiene 18 für eine lastübertragende Relativbewegung der Schienen 17, 18 wirkt.In addition, the full extension 16 includes a first or lower carriage 20 with bearing bodies arranged thereon, the carriage 20 acting between the body rail 17 and the middle rail 18 for a load-transmitting relative movement of the rails 17, 18.

Weiter umfasst der Vollauszug 16 einen zweiten bzw. oberen Laufwagen 21 mit daran angeordneten Lagerkörpern, wobei der Laufwagen 21 zwischen der Mittelschiene 18 und der Schubelementschiene 19 für eine lastübertragende Relativbewegung der Schienen 18, 19 wirkt.The full extension 16 also includes a second or upper carriage 21 with bearing bodies arranged thereon, the carriage 21 acting between the middle rail 18 and the push element rail 19 for a load-transmitting relative movement of the rails 18, 19.

An einer vertikal stehenden, nach innen zeigenden Schmalseite eines Schienenkörpers 31 der Korpusschiene 17 sind Stifte 32 vorhanden, über welche ein Bewegungsmechanismus 22 des Vollauszugs 16, zum Beispiel zum Ausstoßen und/oder Einziehen der Schublade 3, anbringbar ist.Pins 32 are present on a vertical, inward-pointing narrow side of a rail body 31 of the carcass rail 17, via which a movement mechanism 22 of the full extension 16, for example for ejecting and/or retracting the drawer 3, can be attached.

Zur Korpusschiene 17 gehören zwei L-förmige Befestigungselemente 33 und 34, wobei die Befestigungselemente 33 und 34 zur Befestigung bzw. Fixierung des Vollauszugs 16 an einer Innenseite der Seitenwand eines Korpus dienen, wie der Innenseite 5a der Seitenwand 5 des Möbelkorpus 2 des Möbels 1.Two L-shaped fastening elements 33 and 34 belong to the cabinet rail 17, with the fastening elements 33 and 34 serving to fasten or fix the full extension 16 to an inside of the side wall of a cabinet, such as the inside 5a of the side wall 5 of the cabinet body 2 of the cabinet 1.

Im Ausführungsbeispiel gemäß Fig. 3 weisen die Befestigungselemente 33 und 34 einen in der Breite stark verkürzten horizontalen Schenkel mit der Breite B0 auf. Damit kann ein Abstand der Außenseite der Hohlkammerzarge 15 zu einer Innenseite 5a der Seitenwand 5 minimiert werden, was ein Aufnahmevolumen der Schublade 3 maximiert.In the embodiment according to 3 the fastening elements 33 and 34 have a horizontal leg with the width B0 that is greatly shortened in width. A distance between the outside of the hollow chamber frame 15 and an inside 5a of the side wall 5 can thus be minimized, which maximizes the capacity of the drawer 3 .

Die Führungsschienen 17, 18, 19 bestehen bevorzugt aus einem Blechmaterial, welches ausgehend vom flachen Blechmaterial beispielsweise durch ein Stanz- und Biegeverfahren zum Endprodukt der jeweiligen Führungsschiene umgeformt ist.The guide rails 17, 18, 19 preferably consist of a sheet metal material which, starting from the flat sheet material, is formed into the end product of the respective guide rail, for example by a stamping and bending process.

Zur Begrenzung einer auf die Mittelschiene 18 bezogenen Relativbewegung des unteren Laufwagens 20 und des oberen Laufwagens 21 in Längserstreckung der Mittelschiene 18 gemäß einer zentralen Längsachse S (s.

Fig. 5 zeigt das Möbel 1 gemäß Fig. 1 ohne einen von vorne gesehen linken Teilbereich von unten bzw. in Unteransicht mit der in Richtung P1 ausgefahrenen Schublade 3. An dem Schienen-Vollauszug 7, der als Vollauszug 16 gemäß Figur 4 ausgestaltet ist, wirkt eine beispielhafte erfindungsgemäße Verbindungsvorrichtung 37. Die Verbindungsvorrichtung 37 dient zu einer Schubelement-Höheneinstellung und zur Verrastung der Schublade 3 an der jeweiligen Schubelementschiene 19 der Schienen-Vollauszüge 6 bzw. 7, die am Möbelkorpus 2 angeschraubt sind. figure 5 shows the piece of furniture 1 according to FIG 1 without a left partial area seen from the front from below or in a view from below with the drawer 3 extended in direction P1 figure 4 is configured, an exemplary connecting device 37 according to the invention acts. The connecting device 37 serves to adjust the height of the sliding element and to latch the drawer 3 to the respective sliding element rail 19 of the full extension rails 6 or 7, which are screwed to the furniture body 2.

An dem zur Bewegung der Schublade 3 nötigen und in Fig. 5 nicht gezeigten Schienen-Vollauszug 6, der ebenfalls entsprechend dem Vollauszug 16 aus Figur 4 ausgestaltet ist, wirkt demgemäß eine entsprechende erfindungsgemäße Verbindungsvorrichtung 37.On the necessary to move the drawer 3 and in figure 5 not shown rail full extension 6, which also corresponds to the full extension 16 from figure 4 is designed, a corresponding connection device 37 according to the invention acts accordingly.

Die Komponenten der Verbindungsvorrichtung 37 bestehen bevorzugt aus einem Kunststoffmaterial. Fig. 6 zeigt allein den vollständig zusammengeschobenen Schienen-Vollauszug 6 von oben mit funktionsrichtig daran angeordneter gekoppelter und verrasteter Verbindungsvorrichtung 37. Die Schublade 3 stützt sich demgemäß mit einem jeweils seitlichen Teil der Unterseite des Schubladenbodens 14 auf den beiden Schienen-Vollauszügen 6 und 7 bzw. auf der jeweiligen Oberseite 19a der Schubelementschiene 19 ab.The components of the connecting device 37 are preferably made of a plastic material. 6 shows only the fully extended rail 6 from above with the functionally correctly arranged, coupled and latched connecting device 37. The drawer 3 is accordingly supported with a lateral part of the underside of the drawer base 14 on the two full extension rails 6 and 7 or on the respective top 19a of Push element rail 19 from.

Ein Hauptteil 39 der Verbindungsvorrichtung 37 ist unten an der Schublade 3 bzw. an einer Unterseite des Schubladenbodens 14 im Bereich eines vorderen Boden-Eckbereichs angeschraubt, beispielsweise mit Schraubmitteln wie zwei Schrauben 38, die durch vorbereitete Öffnungen in dem Hauptteil 39 greifen und unterseitig im Schubladenboden 14 eingeschraubt sind. Eine Befestigung des Hauptteils 39 rückseitig am Frontelement 12 ist ebenfalls möglich.A main part 39 of the connecting device 37 is screwed to the bottom of the drawer 3 or to an underside of the drawer base 14 in the area of a front corner area of the base, for example with screwing means such as two screws 38 which engage through prepared openings in the main part 39 and on the underside in the drawer base 14 are screwed in. Fastening the main part 39 to the rear of the front element 12 is also possible.

Die Verbindungsvorrichtung 37 umfasst neben dem Hauptteil 39 ein Rastelement 40, wobei das Hauptteil 39 und das Rastelement 40 zwei separate Bauteile sind.In addition to the main part 39, the connecting device 37 comprises a latching element 40, with the main part 39 and the latching element 40 being two separate components.

Das Hauptteil 39 dient zur Befestigung an dem Schubelement bzw. an der Schublade 3 und das Rastelement 40 wird an der Schubelementschiene 19 an deren vorderer Stirnseite fest aufgesteckt bzw. befestigt (s. Fig. 9, 10).The main part 39 is used for attachment to the sliding element or to the drawer 3 and the locking element 40 is firmly attached or fastened to the sliding element rail 19 on the front end thereof (see Fig. Figures 9, 10 ).

Die Verbindungsvorrichtung 37 weist am Hauptteil 39 einen zu verbleibenden Abschnitten des Hauptteils 39 bewegbaren Rastarm 41 mit einem Rastorgan 42 auf. Das Rastorgan 42 ist vorzugsweise als Rastzahn bzw. mit einer zahnartigen Kontur ausgebildet.The connecting device 37 has on the main part 39 a latching arm 41 with a latching element 42 which can be moved towards the remaining sections of the main part 39 . The locking element 42 is preferably designed as a locking tooth or with a tooth-like contour.

Der Rastarm 41 unterteilt sich in einen vorderen Armabschnitt 41a und eine hinteren Armabschnitt 41b sind. Die beiden Armabschnitte 41a, 41b sind jeweils im Wesentlichen gerade ausgebildet und auf die Länge des Rastarms 41 bezogen in einem mittleren Abschnitt mit einer Abwinklung 43 versehen, so dass die beiden Armabschnitte 41a, 41b abgewinkelt zueinander ausgerichtet sind.The locking arm 41 is divided into a front arm section 41a and a rear arm section 41b. The two arm sections 41a, 41b are each essentially straight and, based on the length of the locking arm 41, are provided with a bend 43 in a central section, so that the two arm sections 41a, 41b are aligned at an angle to one another.

In der gemäß Figur 7 dargestellten Grundstellung des Hauptteils 39 steht der vordere Armabschnitt 41a so, dass das Rastorgan 42 in einen Aufnahmebereich AB des Hauptteils 39 hineinragt, in welchem das vordere Ende der jeweiligen Schubelementschiene 19 im verbundenen Zustand von Schublade 3 und dem dazugehörigen Schienen-Vollauszug vorhanden ist.In accordance with figure 7 shown basic position of the main part 39 is the front arm portion 41a so that the locking member 42 protrudes into a receiving area AB of the main part 39, in which the front end of the respective Sliding element rail 19 is present in the connected state of drawer 3 and the associated rail full extension.

Der hintere Armabschnitt 41b erstreckt sich vom Aufnahmebereich AB weg. Der Rastarm 41 ist allein über zwei steg- bzw. armartige Anbindungsorgane 44 und 45 am restlichen Teil des Hauptteils 39 angebunden, wobei die Anbindungsorgane 44 und 45 auf der Innenseite des vorderen Armabschnitt 41a nahe der Abwinkelung 43 ausgebildet sind.The rear arm portion 41b extends away from the receiving area AB. The latching arm 41 is connected to the remaining part of the main part 39 solely via two web-like or arm-like connecting elements 44 and 45 , the connecting elements 44 and 45 being formed on the inside of the front arm section 41a near the bend 43 .

Das erste Anbindungsorgan 44 ist näher zum Rastorgan 42 gelegen als das zweite Anbindungsorgan 45. Beide Anbindungsorgane 44 und 45 sind elastisch verformbar, was eine Einrast- und Entrast-Bewegung des Rastarms 41 an dem Rastelement 40 ermöglicht. Dabei findet eine Bewegung des vorderen Endes des Rastarms 41 bzw. des vorderen Armabschnitts 41a mit dem Rastorgan 42 in Richtung P3 und P4 bzw. quer zur Längserstreckung LE des Rastarms 41 und in Richtung der Anbindungsorgan 44, 45 statt.The first attachment element 44 is located closer to the latching element 42 than the second attachment element 45. Both attachment elements 44 and 45 are elastically deformable, which allows the latching arm 41 to latch and unlatch on the latching element 40. The front end of the locking arm 41 or the front arm section 41a with the locking element 42 moves in the direction P3 and P4 or transversely to the longitudinal extension LE of the locking arm 41 and in the direction of the connection element 44, 45.

Für die gewünschte Kinematik weist das erste Anbindungsorgan 44 eine entsprechende Ausgestaltung und Dimensionierung auf, mit einer geringere Dicke am mit dem Rastarm 41 verbundenen Ende und einer größeren Dicke mit einem gegenüberliegenden Ende, das mit einer starren Wand 53 des Hauptteils 39 verbunden ist.For the desired kinematics, the first attachment element 44 has an appropriate configuration and dimensions, with a smaller thickness at the end connected to the locking arm 41 and a greater thickness at an opposite end connected to a rigid wall 53 of the main part 39 .

Die Ausrichtung des ersten Anbindungsorgans 44 ist schräg zur Längserstreckung LE des Rastarms 41. Die Stelle der Verbindung des ersten Anbindungsorgans 44 an der starren Wand 53 liegt in Längserstreckung LE näher zum Rastorgan 42 als die Stelle der Verbindung des ersten Anbindungsorgans 44 an dem Rastarm 42. Das erste Anbindungsorgan 44 ist im Grundzustand gemäß Fig. 7, also ohne Krafteinwirkung von außen, vergleichsweise schwach gebogen gestaltet mit einer zum Rastorgan 42 gerichteten Seite, die leicht konkav gestaltet ist. Die gegenüberliegende Seite des ersten Anbindungsorgans 44 ist entsprechend leicht konvex gebogen gestaltet.The orientation of the first attachment element 44 is oblique to the longitudinal extent LE of the latching arm 41. The point at which the first attachment element 44 is connected to the rigid wall 53 is closer to the latching element 42 in the longitudinal extent LE than the point at which the first attachment element 44 is connected to the latching arm 42. The first attachment member 44 is in the basic state according to 7 , ie without external force, designed comparatively slightly curved with a side directed towards the latching element 42, which is designed slightly concave. The opposite side of the first attachment element 44 is correspondingly slightly convexly curved.

Das weitere für die elastische Ausweichbewegung des Rastarms 41 vorhandene zweite Anbindungsorgan 45 ist am Rastarm 41 etwas weiter weg gelegen von dem Ende des Rastarms 41, welches das Rastorgan 42 aufweist. Das Anbindungsorgan 45 hat eine etwas größere Dicke als das erste Anbindungsorgan 44. Außerdem ist das Anbindungsorgan 45 auf der in Richtung des Rastorgans 42 gerichteten Seite konvex gebogen. Die gegenüberliegende Seite des Anbindungsorgans 45 ist entsprechend konkav gebogen.The further second attachment element 45 present for the elastic evasive movement of the latching arm 41 is located on the latching arm 41 somewhat further away from the end of the latching arm 41 which has the latching element 42 . The attachment element 45 has a slightly greater thickness than the first attachment element 44. In addition, the attachment element 45 is convexly curved on the side directed in the direction of the latching element 42. The opposite side of the attachment member 45 is correspondingly concave.

Das Verformungsverhalten der beiden Anbindungsorgane 44 und 45 an der Verbindungsvorrichtung 37 ist so abgestimmt, dass z. B. bei einer Krafteinwirkung K von außen an einem Bedienelement 46 des Armabschnitts 41b, der Rastarm 41 sich so bewegt, dass der Bereich des Rastarms 41, an welchem das Rastorgan 42 vorhanden ist, eine zumindest nahezu lineare Bewegung quer zur Längserstreckung LE des Rastarms bzw. in Richtung P3 ausführt. Die Bewegung des Rastorgans 42 in Richtung P3 erfolgt auch bei der weiter unten beschriebenen Montage. Bei einem teilweisen Ablassen oder bei einem Wegfall der von außen wirkenden Kraft K auf das Bedienelement 46 oder das Rastorgan 42 stellt sich der Rastarm 41 auf entsprechende Weise zurück. Demgemäß bewegt sich der vordere Endbereich des Rastarms 41, an welchem das Rastorgan vorhanden ist, linear in Richtung P4 zurück. Dies erfolgt durch die elastische Vorspannung der beiden Anbindungsorgane 44, 45.The deformation behavior of the two attachment members 44 and 45 on the connecting device 37 is adjusted so that z. B. when an external force K is applied to an operating element 46 of the arm section 41b, the latching arm 41 moves in such a way that the region of the latching arm 41 on which the latching element 42 is present moves at least almost linearly transversely to the longitudinal extension LE of the latching arm or .runs towards P3. The movement of the latching element 42 in direction P3 also takes place in the assembly described further below. In the event of a partial release or if the force K acting from the outside on the operating element 46 or the latching element 42 ceases, the latching arm 41 resets itself in a corresponding manner. Accordingly, the front end portion of the latch arm 41 on which the latch member is provided linearly moves back in the direction P4. This is done by the elastic pretensioning of the two connecting elements 44, 45.

Figur 9 und 10 zeigt das vordere Ende der Schubelementschiene 19 von oben (Fig. 9) und von unten mit dem Rastelement 40, das vorzugsweise aus Kunststoff besteht, welches an der metallischen Schubelementschiene 19 aufgesteckt und dort verrastet vorhanden ist. Zur Verrastung weist das Rastelement 40 neben weiteren Rastabschnitten beispielsweise eine geringfügig elastisch ausweichbare Rastnase 47 auf, welche im angeordneten Zustand in eine passende Ausnehmung 48 in dem die Oberseite 19a bildenden Steg der Schubelementschiene 19 eingreift und verrastet. Das Rastelement 40 ist damit am stirnseitigen vorderen Ende der Schubelementschiene 19 befestigt. Figure 9 and 10 shows the front end of the sliding element rail 19 from above ( 9 ) and from below with the latching element 40, which is preferably made of plastic, which is attached to the metallic pusher element rail 19 and latched there. For latching, the latching element 40 has, in addition to further latching sections, for example a slightly elastically deflectable latching lug 47 which, in the arranged state, engages and latches in a suitable recess 48 in the web of the sliding element rail 19 forming the upper side 19a. The latching element 40 is thus at the front end of the sliding element rail 19 fastened.

Im angeordneten Zustand des Rastelements 40 umgreift dieses die Stirnseite der Schubelementschiene 19 und mit einer Abwinklung 50 des Rastelements 40 einen vorderen Endabschnitt einer Seitenwand 19c der Schubelementschiene 19. Die Abwinklung 50 weist eine rechtwinklig zur Seitenwand 19c ausgerichtete und zu dieser vorstehenden Anschlagfläche 51 auf. Des Weiteren weist die Abwinklung 50 auf einer Außenseite, die im Anbringzustand parallel zur Seitenwand 19c versetzt ist, eine seitliche Einkerbung 52 auf, die für ein passendes Ineinandergreifen mit dem Rastorgan 42 ausgestaltet ist.When the locking element 40 is in the arranged state, it encloses the end face of the pusher element rail 19 and, with a bend 50 of the locking element 40, a front end section of a side wall 19c of the pusher element rail 19. The bend 50 has a stop surface 51 which is aligned at right angles to the side wall 19c and protrudes from it. Furthermore, the bend 50 has a lateral notch 52 on an outer side, which in the mounted state is offset parallel to the side wall 19c, which is designed for mating engagement with the locking member 42.

Das Verbinden und Lösen eines Schubelements bzw. der Schublade 3 mit bzw. von einer Führungsschiene bzw. der Schubelementschiene 19, wobei Fig. 5 den fertigen Verbindungszustand auf einer Seite des Schubladenbodens 14 zeigt, ist anhand der Fig. 11 bis 14 näher erläutert, in denen die Schublade 3 mit dem Schubladenboden 14 nicht dargestellt sind.The connection and release of a pusher element or the drawer 3 with or from a guide rail or the pusher element rail 19, wherein figure 5 shows the finished connection state on one side of the drawer bottom 14 is based on the Figures 11 to 14 explained in more detail, in which the drawer 3 with the drawer bottom 14 are not shown.

Fig.11 zeigt die Grundstellung der Verbindungsvorrichtung 37, in welcher das Rastorgan 42 mit Rastkanten 42a, 42b in den Aufnahmebereich AB etwas hineinsteht. Fig.11 shows the basic position of the connecting device 37, in which the latching element 42 with latching edges 42a, 42b protrudes somewhat into the receiving area AB.

Nach dem Aufsetzen des hinteren Teils der Schublade 3 bzw. des Schubladenbodens 14 auf die beiden am Möbelkorpus 2 herausstehenden bzw. vorne überstehende Schubelementschienen 19 der Schienen-Vollauszüge 6, 7, wird die Schublade 3 in Richtung P2 bzw. P5 verschoben und vorne abgesenkt, bis die beiden Verbindungsvorrichtungen 37 sich dem vorderen Ende der Schubelementschienen 19 nähern. Nachfolgend wird das Zusammenspiel auf einer Seite auf der Unterseite des Schubladenbodens 14 erläutert. Auf der anderen Seite findet simultan ein entsprechendes Zusammenspiel statt.After the rear part of the drawer 3 or the drawer bottom 14 has been placed on the two sliding element rails 19 of the full extension rails 6, 7 that protrude or protrude at the front of the furniture body 2, the drawer 3 is pushed in the direction of P2 or P5 and lowered at the front. until the two connecting devices 37 approach the front end of the pusher rails 19. The interaction on one side on the underside of the drawer base 14 is explained below. On the other hand, a corresponding interaction takes place simultaneously.

Bei dem Schieben der Schublade 3 in Richtung P5 kommt eine schräge Anlauffläche 49 am Rastelement 40 in passenden Flächenkontakt zu der schrägen Rastflanke 42a am Rastorgan 42. Dabei weicht der Rastarm 41 unter elastischer Verformung der Anbindungsorgane 44, 45 etwas in Richtung P3 aus, womit beim weiteren Einschieben in Richtung P5 das ausgelenkte Rastorgan 42 an einer Seitenfläche 50a der Abwinklung 50 entlanggleitet, bis das Rastorgan 42 in die Einkerbung 52 aufgrund der vorgespannten Anbindungsorgane 44, 45 federnd einrastet. Es ist eine Vorraststellung gemäß Fig. 12 erreicht. Damit ist eine Vorpositionierung der Schublade 3 am Möbelkorpus 2 beidseitig an den Vollauszügen eingerichtet. Die damit eingerichtete Verrastung des Rastorgans 42 verhindert ein Abnehmen der Schublade 3 von der Schubelementschiene 19 durch Herausziehen in Richtung entgegen P5, denn die Rastflanke 42b wird an einer Fläche 52a quer zur Längserstreckung (s. Fig. 10) der Einkerbung 52 blockiert.When pushing the drawer 3 in the direction of P5 comes a sloping contact surface 49 on latching element 40 in matching surface contact with the sloping latching flank 42a on latching element 42. The latching arm 41 deviates slightly in direction P3 under elastic deformation of the connecting elements 44, 45, whereby the deflected latching element 42 on a Side surface 50a of the bend 50 slides along until the locking element 42 snaps resiliently into the notch 52 due to the pretensioned connection elements 44, 45. It is a pre-locked position according to 12 reached. A pre-positioning of the drawer 3 on the furniture carcass 2 is thus set up on the full extensions on both sides. The latching of the latching element 42 thus set up prevents the drawer 3 from being removed from the sliding element rail 19 by being pulled out in the opposite direction to P5, because the latching flank 42b is attached to a surface 52a transversely to the longitudinal extension (see Fig. 10 ) of notch 52 is blocked.

Wird nun die Schublade 3 um wenige Millimeter weiter in Richtung P5 geschoben, weicht der Rastarm 41 weiter in Richtung P3 aus, da eine weitere schräg zur Längserstreckung stehende Fläche 52b der Einkerbung 52 gegen die Rastflanke 42a drückt.If the drawer 3 is now pushed a few millimeters further in direction P5, the latching arm 41 deviates further in direction P3, since another surface 52b of the notch 52 which is inclined to the longitudinal extension presses against the latching flank 42a.

Am Ende der Fläche 52b kommt der vorgespannte Rastarm 41 mit dem Rastorgan 42 frei von der Einkerbung 52 und der vorgespannte Rastarm 41 rastet in Richtung P4 (s. Fig. 13) mit seiner Rastflanke 42b an der Anschlagfläche 51 ein. Die Verbindungsvorrichtung 37 ist an der Schubelementschiene 19 verrastet. Am Rastelement 40 sind Federmittel 54, 55 als zwei nach innen zum Aufnahmebereich AB vorstehende federnde Arme vorhanden und ein starres Stiftelement 56, das in eine passende Öffnung 57 stirnseitig im Rastelement 40 mit Spiel eingreift. Im verrasteten Zustand gemäß Fig. 13 drücken die Federmittel 54, 55 gegen das Rastelement 40, so dass ein Längenausgleich bereitgestellt ist. Dabei steht die Anschlagfläche 51 andrückend an der Rastflanke 42b an.At the end of surface 52b, the prestressed latching arm 41 with the latching element 42 comes free of the notch 52 and the prestressed latching arm 41 latches in direction P4 (see Fig. 13 ) with its latching edge 42b on the stop surface 51. The connecting device 37 is latched to the sliding element rail 19 . The locking element 40 has spring means 54, 55 in the form of two resilient arms projecting inwards towards the receiving area AB and a rigid pin element 56 which engages in a suitable opening 57 on the end face in the locking element 40 with play. In the locked state according to 13 press the spring means 54, 55 against the locking element 40, so that a length compensation is provided. The stop surface 51 presses against the latching flank 42b.

Zum Lösen der Verrastung drückt eine Person auf das Bedienelement 46 mit der Kraft K, womit der Rastarm 41 im Bereich des Rastorgans 42 linear bzw. schiebend in Richtung P3 ausweicht und die Verrastung gelöst ist. Die Schublade 3 ist frei von dem Rastelement 40, wenn beide Verbindungsvorrichtungen 37 gleichzeitig gemäß Fig. 14 betätigt sind und kann vorne angehoben und von der Schubelementschiene 19 abgehoben werden.To release the latch, a person presses on the Operating element 46 with the force K, with which the latching arm 41 in the region of the latching member 42 deviates in a linear or sliding manner in the direction of P3 and the latching is released. The drawer 3 is free of the locking element 40 when both connecting devices 37 according to the same time 14 are actuated and can be raised at the front and lifted off the sliding element rail 19.
