Description

Frame for a drawer The invention relates to a frame for a drawer according to the preamble of claim 1.

A frame of the generic type is known from DE 10 2010 060 722 A1. The frame disclosed here has as a functional means a connection fitting which is mounted with a base portion on a Zargenadapter a frame of a drawer or is formed thereon. In this case, a manually operable release lever is articulated to a locking lever and the base portion and extends into a space in the Zargenadapter so that it is manually operable in the free space by a user. The frame has proven itself in practice, but requires a relatively large width.

To realize a frame with a narrower design, a structure with an inner shell and an outer shell is useful. The invention therefore has the task of further developing this frame in terms of a structure that offers the possibility of realizing a variety of optically and / or functionally different Zargenvarianten in a simple manner.

The invention solves this problem by the subject matter of claim 1 and further provides a drawer for a piece of furniture with one or more frames according to one of the claims related thereto. Advantageous embodiments of the invention can be found in the dependent claims.

According to claim 1, the following object is provided: A frame for a drawer with a bottom and at least one such frame, wherein the frame has an inner shell and an outer shell attached to the outer shell, characterized in that a vertically upper contact area or a gap between the outer shell and the inner shell is covered by a cover strip. This cover strip offers the benefit of a decorative strip or toolbar, the advantage that with her in a simple manner further optical and functional variants of the frame or on frames can be provided without the structure of the frame must be changed fundamentally. Thus, different colored and / or differently shaped cover strips can be provided to change the design of the frame upwards in a simple manner customizable and / or to realize essays or the like. On the frame in a simple manner. The decorative strip complements the inner shell and the outer shell to a bowl, which can also be called a three-part design. According to a variant can be provided in an optically and haptically advantageous manner that the cover vertically upwards covers the edges of the outer shell and the inner shell.

It can then be provided according to an advantageous development that

- The outer shell and the inner shell with one or two sliding guides are guided relative to each other displaceable, and

the one or at least one of the at least two sliding guides has one or more guide elements (e) arranged between the outer shell and the inner shell.

For such a construction, the cover strips of claim 1 are particularly well - but not only - suitable. In this case, furthermore, one of the sliding guides can be designed as an upper sliding guide and the at least one other of the sliding guides as at least one lower sliding guide between the inner shell and the outer shell, and at least the upper sliding guide and / or the at least one lower sliding guide can be one or more has a plurality of arranged between the outer shell and the inner shell guide elements / have. In this way, it becomes possible to easily form sliding guides adapted to the respective structural conditions between an inner shell and an outer shell. For example, on inner and outer shells made of steel sliding guides can not be formed directly between the inner and the outer shell or only with great design effort. The guide elements provided on the respective sliding guide make this sample learned in a simple way. For this purpose, it is advantageous to fasten the guide elements in each case to the inner shell or the outer shell, preferably releasably fastened, so that the respectively corresponding component outer shell or inner shell can slide along them. The frame preferably has a kind of elongated housing in the manner of a shell, at least with an outer shell and an inner shell, between which a cavity is formed, which is easily accessible in this way.

The term sliding guide means that a first element is displaceably guided on a second element and thereby slides directly or indirectly on this. The sliding guide can be formed for example by a web of an element which slides on two or three sides, for example in a corner region or in a guide groove of a corresponding element. The guide groove may be formed directly in the inner shell or the outer shell or in another, attached thereto guide element.

It is structurally particularly simple and cheap, if one or more of the upper guide elements is integrally formed with the cover strip / are. For in this way two functions - cover and sliding guide - are advantageously integrated into one component. According to another variant but can also be provided that the cover strip is arranged or fixed to one or more of the upper guide elements, in particular slidably disposed. Thus, the cover strip and one or more of the guide elements are integrally formed as an integral unit or assembled into a unit. It is simple and inexpensive if the cover strip is formed as a one-piece element. On the other hand, a particularly large number of variants is particularly easy to implement if the cover strip is designed in several pieces.

According to a variant, the cover strip is T-shaped in cross-section and has a horizontal leg and a vertical leg. Thus, the functions attachment - eg by locking the longitudinal leg of another element of the frame - and cover - by the transverse leg - very easy to combine. But it can also be provided that the cover strip in the transverse is F-shaped and has a horizontal leg and two vertical legs. The second transverse leg can then act as a side cover. Otherwise, the function is preferably as in the illustrated T-shape. It is then at least expedient and advantageous if the horizontal leg of the cover strip is designed as a cover leg, which covers not only a gap or contact area but also a receiving channel of the frame upwards.

It may also be expediently provided that the one vertical leg of the cover strip is designed as a cover leg, which covers the receiving channel of the frame to one side.

For the realization of various variants of cover strips can also be provided that the cover strip has a strip base for attachment to the frame, which is provided with an upper receiving leg, on which a cover strip or a toolbar or a functional element is placed. Embodiments of these features will be explained below with reference to the figures.

According to a preferred - but not mandatory - variant is realized with the at least two sliding guides only a linearly limited mobility of the outer shell relative to the inner shell, as this is already sufficient in the rule to provide sufficient access to the interior space between the inner shell and the To ensure outer shell.

Now advantageous embodiments of frames will now be explained, for which the cover strips are particularly suitable.

First, it is expedient and advantageous - although not mandatory - according to a further variant, if the outer shell and / or the inner shell of one or more steel elements, in particular steel sheets, are formed. The invention is not limited thereto but also for inner and outer shells made of other materials, such as light metal, especially aluminum, in principle well suited. Steel sheets can not be pressed as they are on extruded Forming webs in a simple way webs or grooves. Therefore, the guide elements are particularly advantageous here.

To realize good sliding properties and to give the guide elements in a simple way a suitable geometry and shape, it is advantageous if the guide elements are made of plastic.

Structurally, it is advantageous if one of the sliding guides is designed as an upper sliding guide and the at least one other of the sliding guides is designed as at least one lower sliding guide between the inner shell and the outer shell and that at least the upper sliding guide and / or the at least one lower sliding guides each having one or more def between the outer shell and the inner shell arranged guide elements. The terms "top" and "bottom" refer to a vertical direction in an installed position of the frame on a drawer on a relative to the drawer bottom closer - lower - installation position and on a further spaced from this drawer bottom upper mounting position.

It is advantageous if the guide elements are each arranged in a receiving channel formed between the inner shell and the outer shell. Preferably, the receiving channel is formed from at least three or four walls, wherein at least one wall projects beyond the guide elements in their height. Particularly preferably, two walls which are approximately parallel to one another in vertical alignment with the drawer bottom have the same height. In this way, the guide elements are well protected and visually concealed (with respect to the position of use of the drawer with a frame according to the invention on a piece of furniture) of the outer shell and the inner shell in the respective receiving channel. This channel is concealed towards the top, preferably completely or substantially entirely by the cover strip.

It is expedient - although not mandatory - if two of the walls of the at least one receiving channel are formed by the inner shell and if one of the walls of the receiving channel is formed by the outer shell. In doing so, If it is necessary to attach the upper guide elements to the inner shell, so that the outer shell is guided on the upper guide elements.

It is also advantageous if the guide elements are respectively secured to the inner shell or to the outer shell and if the respectively corresponding element - the outer shell or the inner shell - has a guide groove formed corresponding to the guide groove, in the region of the outer shell or the inner shell on the or the guide elements is slidably guided. According to a further variant of the invention, it is provided that the frame has two different lower sliding guides between the inner shell and the outer shell and that both of the lower sliding guides each have one or more of the arranged between the outer shell and the inner shell guide elements. For in each case a limited mobility can be realized in the lower region between the inner shell and the outer shell, which is sufficient to allow access to functional elements in the interior space between the inner shell and the outer shell. Moreover, it is thus possible to position the outer shell and the inner shell very precisely relative to one another.

It is conceivable that the guide elements of the sliding guides are respectively attached to the inner shell and / or to the outer shell.

It is structurally simple and advantageous if the guide elements engage displaceably in a guide groove of the respective corresponding element of the outer shell or inner shell.

According to a further variant, it is provided that one or more sliding and / or positioning means for fastening and / or positioning the attachment element "cover strip" are formed on one or more of the upper guide elements , It is particularly advantageous if, in the context of realizing the multiple function, sliding guide means are formed on one or more of the upper guide elements, on which the cover strip is displaceably guided with corresponding sliding guide means. Thus, the upper guide elements are advantageously used both for the function of the sliding guide between the inner and the outer shell and for the realization of further frame variants with the cover strip, with which, for example, other colors or shapes can be realized on the frame. It is further advantageous and practical if on the upper guide elements

Sliding guide means are formed, on which the cover strip is guided displaceably with corresponding sliding guide means. Thus, two sliding guides are formed simultaneously on the upper guide rails. These are on the one hand the sliding guide between the inner and outer shell and on the other hand a sliding guide for the cover strip relative to one of the elements inner and outer shell.

It is structurally simple if the corresponding sliding guide means in their interaction form a tongue-and-groove sliding guide.

It is structurally expedient and advantageous if one type of the lower guide elements is fixed to the inner shell and is guided displaceably directly or indirectly on the outer shell and if the other type of lower guide elements is fixed to the outer shell and directly or indirectly against the inner shell. is slidably guided.

With regard to the assembly of the guide elements, it is also advantageous if at least a part of the lower and / or the upper guide elements is latchingly fixed to the inner shell or the outer shell.

The upper and lower guide elements may each be the same or different. It is then advantageous if the upper and / or the lower guide elements are attached to the inner shell or the outer shell as a whole. However, it is also advantageous embodiments conceivable in which a part of the guide elements on the inner shell and a part of the guide elements are fixed to the outer shell.

It can be realized in particular frames in which the inner shell and / or the outer shell, preferably made of sheet steel, together form a substantially rectangular in cross section body whose maximum width B _{3 is} less than 15 mm.

Further advantageous embodiments of the invention can be found in the dependent claims.

Fig. 1 shows a trained as a cabinet furniture 2 furniture. The cabinet furniture 2 has a furniture body 3. In the furniture body 3 three drawers 4, 5 are used here - purely by way of example. The drawers 4, 5 are guided displaceably in the furniture body 3, so that each of the drawers 4, 5 each pulled out of the furniture body 3 in an open position and again pushed out of this into a closed position. The drawer 5 shown in Fig. 2a and b has a front panel 6a, which is exemplified here as a relatively high front panel 6a. The drawer 5 also has two side frames - hereinafter also referred to as frames 1 - on. The frames 1 are preferably constructed in each case two shells. The frame has a kind of elongated housing in the manner of a shell with an outer shell 1 1 and an inner shell 10.

In this case, the outer shell 1 1 is held on the inner shell 10 and relative to this displaceable. Preferably, the outer shell is limited slidably held on the inner shell. The inner shell 10 includes with the outer shell 1 1 each have a narrow cavity. The concept of the inner shell 10 and the outer shell 1 1 does not mean that they must be constructed in one piece. The inner shell 10 and the outer shell 1 1 can in turn be composed of several elements such as metal strips, so that these metal strips in interaction the inner shell and the outer shell 10, 1 1 form. The drawer 5 also has a rear wall 12a and a drawer bottom 12b. Preferably - but not necessarily - the outer shell 1 1 and the inner shell 10 made of sheet metal, in particular made of sheet steel. But they can also consist of other materials. Preferably, the inner shell 10 and the outer shell 1 1 are each made in one piece or in several pieces from one or more sheets, in particular made of steel, which are converted in sections by forming. have been formed and where appropriate recesses and the like. By punching, cutting or the like. Are formed.

It is further preferred if the outer shell 1 1 and the inner shell 10 form a frame with a relatively small, ie "narrow" width which is (preferably perpendicular to FIG. 3 a) less than 15 mm, in particular narrower than 12 mm With such narrow frames 1, the invention can be used advantageously.

In Fig. 2b, the outer shell 1 1 of the operator of the drawer 5 seen from left frame 1 of the drawer 5 is not shown and the inner shell 10 of the operator of the drawer 5 seen from right frame 1 is not shown. At each of the frames 1 a plurality of functional devices are arranged, which are arranged substantially in the space between the outer shell 1 1 and the inner shell 10. These functional devices include, for example, one or more locking devices and one or more fastening elements. Thus, the drawer in the region of each of the two frames 1 at least one, here in each case two connecting fittings 7a, 7b, with which each of the front panel 6a can be fastened to the frame.

For this purpose, the front panel 6a per connection fitting 7a, 7b is connected via a support device 8 respectively to a corresponding locking device 9a, 9b on the corresponding frame 1 on the left or right or connected in the mounted state.

The drawer 4 with lower front panel 6b is constructed analogously to the drawer 5 with high front panel 6a. Differences between the two drawers 4, 5 exist in particular in the height of the front panel 6a and 6b (and possibly the rear wall) and, consequently, in the height of the frames 1, which are executed in the drawer 4 with low front panel 6b correspondingly lower. Consequently, the frames 1 of the drawer 4 with lower front panel 6b each have only one locking device 9a or 9b.

In order to realize access to the functional element or elements which are arranged completely or partially in the intermediate space between the inner shell 10 and the outer shell 11, it is advantageous if the inner shell 10 is mounted relative to the outer shell 10. ßenschale 1 1 displaceable, preferably limited sliding, is. (For illustrative purposes, see already for example Fig. 1 6).

According to a preferred embodiment, the outer shell 1 1 is designed in one piece. The outer shell 1 1 also has an outer wall portion 13 which essentially or completely forms the visible outer wall of the frame 10 on the outer wall / side facing away from the drawer bottom 12 b. Towards the rear wall 12a, the inner shell 11 is shorter here by its width B than the outer shell 11.

Preferably, a lower edge 14 of this outer wall portion 13 is bent by 180 ° to the inner shell 10 out. A groove-like lower guide groove 15 is formed on the outer shell 11 (FIG. 3b).

Preferably, furthermore, an upper edge 16 of this outer wall section 13 is also bent over the inner shell 10 by a total of approximately 180 °, so that a groove-like upper guide groove 17 is also formed.

The upper edge 1 6 also preferably forms a resiliently acting bend 19, which extends from the cover strip section 18 down. Thus, the upper edge 1 6 forms with the cover strip portion 18 and the bend 19 together the upper groove-like guide groove 17 on the outer shell 1 1. According to a preferred embodiment, the inner shell 10 is configured in two pieces. But it can also be configured in one piece or consist of more than two sheets (not shown here). Here, the inner shell 10 has an inner wall portion 20 and a container rail 21 fixed to the inner wall portion 20 with one or more attachment points, the points being made by joining methods such as riveting, clinching or welding. On the container rail 21 is / are u.a. one or more of the above-explained functional elements set. It increases the stability of the respective frame 1 and simplifies the assembly.

The inner wall section 20 is used inter alia, the frame 1 to the inside - so the drawer bottom 12b out - optically cover The upper edge 22 of the inner wall portion 20 (and here also the container rail) - see Fig. 3b - is bent outwards or to the outer shell 1 1 way that it is below the upper guide groove 17 and there is a support leg 23 in the manner of a Traverse trains. Between the support leg 23 and the inner and outer shell 10, 1 1 thus an upper receiving channel K1 is formed to the upper edge region.

The support leg 23 is used here for attachment of one or more first - upper - guide elements (s) 24. These are arranged in the upper receiving channel K1 and are there well protected and visually hidden. On them slides the outer shell 1 1. They therefore form with the outer shell 1 1 a first, upper sliding guide S1 (see Fig. 3b).

Preferably, a plurality of the upper guide elements 24 in a row spaced from each other on the support leg 23 of the inner shell 10 are distributed. The support leg 23 and an adjoining wall portion of the inner shell 10 form two of the walls of the upper receiving channel K1. Two other walls of this receiving channel K1 forms the outer shell 1 1. The upper receiving channel K1 is thus formed closed all around. The upper guide elements 24 are thus not visible in their installed position on a drawer from the outside.

The guide elements 24 may be fixed in the receiving channel K1, for example, with screws or rivets and / or locking means or the like. Preferred - because simple and straightforward - is a fastening with at least one latching hook 40 or a plurality of latching hooks, which engages in a latching recess 41 of the support leg 23 and / or the container rail 21 (FIGS. 3b and 3c).

The upper (and also the other) guide elements 24 each form Gleitele- elements, wherein according to Fig. 3b, the upper guide elements engage directly in the upper guide groove 17 of the displaceable outer shell 1 1. Here, the resilient leg is laterally resiliently against the guide elements 24. In this way, the outer shell 1 1 in the upper region in a simple manner on the guide elements 24 of the inner shell 10 is guided well and safely displaced. It is the first - upper - sliding guide S1 between the outer shell 1 1 and the inner shell 10 is formed. Since the bend 19 is preferably designed as a resilient leg, which laterally engages in a lateral recess 24a of the upper guide elements 24 resiliently, a particularly good fit of the outer shell 11 is realized in this area on the guide elements 24. In this way, a device for lifting-off the outer shell 11 from the inner shell 10 is also realized in a simple manner.

The lift-off can also be implemented constructively in other ways.

This one or more upper guide elements 24, 24 "(and 50) preferably consists of a plastic, the latter also applies to even further guide elements 25a, 25b to be explained - Guided to the inner shell 10 toward further guide elements 25 a, b relative to the inner shell 10 slidably.

In this area located further below, at least one further sliding guide S2 is formed between the inner shell 10 and the outer shell 11. Preferably, even two further lower slide guides S2 and S3 are provided (FIGS. 3b and 5a).

It is conceivable to provide only one type of lower guide elements. According to the illustrated figures, however, two different types of lower guide elements are provided, which are designated in the drawings with 25a and 25b and which are each optimally adapted to the tasks and geometries in the region of the two lower sliding guides S2, S3 or adapted.

The first lower guide elements 25a are preferably fixed to the lower guide groove 15 by a forming process on the outer shell 11, preferably in such a way that no visible traces are left from the outside of the joining process. They serve as combined guiding and fixing elements and also serve to hold the outer shell 1 1 on the inner shell 10. The lower middle guide elements 25a engage with a vertically oriented guide leg 26b immovably fixed in the lower groove 15 of the outer shell 1 1. According to FIG. 3c, four of these first lower guide elements 25a are provided by way of example. They preferably have a T-shape in section (see FIGS. 10 and 11). The preassembled guide elements 25a on the outer shell 1 1 carry after placing the inner shell 10 with a horizontally oriented leg 26a a horizontally oriented cross member 27 of the inner shell 10. This limits a lower receiving channel K2 for the lower guide elements 25a, b upwards. The one more wall of this receiving channel K2 is formed by the outer shell 1 1 and the other of the inner shell 10. Since the middle lower guide elements 25a are fastened to the outer shell 11, the actual sliding guide S2 is formed on these guide elements 25a towards the inner shell 10, here on the container rail 21.

The lower middle guide elements 25a are thus advantageously arranged between the inner shell 10 and the outer shell 1 1 and are hidden there and well protected. At least one of the middle (first lower) guide elements 25 a, which are fixed to the outer shell, has a spring element 30 -, which is designed to engage in a displacement of the outer shell 1 1 relative to the inner shell in a window or the like. The inner shell, to fix the outer shell 1 1 relative to the inner shell 10 releasably in a final assembly position, which can be solved only in special cases such as a maintenance case. Here, the spring element 30, in particular a leaf spring, to a locking lug 31, which engages with a displacement of the outer shell 1 1 latching in a window of the inner shell (see Fig. 10 to 12).

There are also two outer guide elements 25b - see FIGS. 4 to 8 - provided, which are respectively provided in the end region (ie front panel and the rear wall) of the frame 1.

These outer guide elements 25b in particular stabilize the outer end regions of the frame in the end region of the inner shell 10 and the outer shell 11. They are also arranged in the lower receiving channel K2. But they are fixed to the inner shell 10 and the outer shell 1 1 is relative to them / on them displaceable. The outer guide elements 25b preferably each have a locking means such as a latching hook 28 which is attached to a corresponding locking means - for example, on a window 29 of the inner shell 10 is / are.

Also, the two outer lower guide elements 25a, b are preferably formed in section approximately T-shaped, so that three legs 26a, b, c are formed on them.

The horizontal leg 26a has the latching hook 28 and is fixed to the inner shell 10, specifically in a recess U-shaped receptacle 47 formed in the end region of the inner shell 10. The lower vertical leg 26b, in contrast, engages vertically upwards open guide groove 15 of the outer shell 1 1 and is guided there displaceable.

(Short) vertical webs 32 of the guide elements 25b engage in slots 33 of the traverse 27 of the inner shell 10 and thus additionally secure the edge region of the frame against a pulling apart of the outer shell 1 1 and the inner shell 10 (see in particular also Fig. 5b).

The lower vertical leg 26b of these outer guide elements 25b, which form a second type of lower guide elements engages in the lower guide groove 15 of the outer shell 1 1 a. In this way, the third lower sliding guide S3 is easily formed. Although the two sliding guides S2 and S3 allow only a limited displaceability corresponding to the distance between the two guide element 25a, b of different types. However, this is sufficient to realize access to the functional devices described in the interior between the inner shell 10 and the outer shell 1 1 (see again Fig. 16). Overall, with the two types of lower guide elements 25a and 25b thus two different lower sliding guides S2, S3 formed between the outer shell 1 1 and the inner shell 10, which allow at least a limited displacement up to a striking of the guide elements 25a, b to each other.

The first guide elements 25a are preferably fixed to the outer shell 11 at their guide groove by means of a deforming method, preferably that the joining process on the opposite side of the outer shell "outside" leaves no visible traces.

According to FIG. 3c, four of the middle guide elements 25a of the first design are provided by way of example. Furthermore, two of the outer guide elements 25b of the second type are provided, which are each provided in the end region (ie, toward the front panel and toward the rear wall) of the frame 1. These outer guide elements 25b in particular stabilize the outer end regions between the inner shell 10 and the outer shell 11. The outer guide elements 25b preferably each have a latching means such as a latching hook 28 which is attached to a corresponding latching means - for example on a window 29 here on the (continuous or sectionally provided) guide groove 15 of the outer shell 10 is / are

All lower guide elements 25a, b are preferably formed in an approximately T-shaped section, so that three legs 26a, b, c are formed on them, which can engage in corresponding grooves of the outer shell 1 1 and or the inner shell 10.

According to a variant - see Fig. 13 ff - is provided on the shell of the frame 1, a further component. This device is a cover strip 35-A.

This cover strip 35-A closes here in the mounted state, the inner shell 10 to the outer shell 1 1 optically, replacing the upper horizontal web 18 of the outer sen 1 1. Towards the rear wall 12a, the cover strip is provided with a recess (with the width B of the rear wall 12a).

The cover strip 35-A has the advantage, in the manner of a decorative strip, that it can easily provide further optical and functional variants of the frame or frames, without the structure of the frame having to be fundamentally changed. Thus, differently colored and / or differently shaped cover strips 35-A can be provided in order to be able to change the design of the frame upwards in a simple manner for each individual customer and / or in order to be able to easily realize attachments or the like on the frame. The decorative strip complements the inner shell 10 and the outer shell 1 1 with respect to FIG. 3 (two-part shell) to a shell to be called also in three parts. In this case, it may be provided that the upper edge 16 of the outer shell 1 1 is still converted into a kind of guide groove 17, but to a narrower upper guide groove 17, in which first upper guide webs 36 of the upper guide elements 24 'engage. Further guide webs 37a, b on the upper guide elements 24 'can be formed on the upper guide elements 24', in which one or more webs 39 of the cover strip 35-A can engage, so that it is also displaceably guided on the inner shell 10. The guide webs 37a, b may also be resilient, so that they move vertically to the drawer bottom, with a sliding of the web 39. The guide webs may also form a kind of dovetail guide groove 38 and the web 39 may be formed like a dovetail. The guide elements 24 'advantageously take on a double function for guiding both the outer shell 11 relative to the inner shell 10 and also for guiding the cover strip 35-A on the outer shell 11 or on the inner shell 10.

The guide elements 24 and 24 'each have a base, on which one or more of the guide webs (36, 37a, 37b) are formed.

It is advantageous if the inner shell 10 is constructed identical to the embodiment of FIGS. 1 to 12, except for the guide elements 24 ', so that virtually all by exchanging the upper guide elements 24 against the other guide elements 24' and providing the other outer shell 1 1 and the cover 35 further variants can be provided on frames or can be converted to such.

Even after the variant of FIG. 19, a cover strip 35-B is provided on the shell of the frame 1. After this are (in deviation to FIG. 13) one or more upper guide elements 24 formed integrally with the cover strip 35-B.

For this purpose, the cover strip 35-B has a covering leg 50 which covers the receiving channel K1. The cover strip 35-B also has a foot 51 connected to the cover leg 50. This foot 51 is here U-shaped and has two longitudinal legs 52, 53 and a transverse leg 54. The one of the Longitudinal leg 52 is connected to the covering leg 50 and the other longitudinal leg 52 engages in the groove 17 as the upper sliding guide.

The cover strip 35-B - and also the other variants of cover strips described in this document - can or can be produced in various ways. They may be formed as an injection molded part or as a casting or as a cut piece of an extruded profile. They can also be made of a variety of materials, in particular plastic or light metal.

The solution of Fig. 19 is less expensive than that of FIG. 13, but which allows an even greater variety of designs.

FIGS. 20a-d also show a further variant of a cover strip 35-C. This cover strip 35-C is similar in terms of the manner of their assembly of the cover strip 35-A of FIG. 13th

The cover strip 35-C closes in the assembled state, the inner shell 10 to the outer shell 1 1 optically replaced and thus here at least the upper horizontal web 18 of the outer shell 1 first Towards the rear wall 12a, the cover strip is provided with a recess (with the width B of the rear wall 12a).

The cover strip 35-C offers the manner of a decorative strip the advantage that with her in a simple manner further optical and functional variants of the frame or on frames can be provided without the structure of the frame must be fundamentally changed.

Between the cover strip 35-C and guide elements 24 in turn a fastening is formed. This can be designed as a dovetail guide, which allows a displacement in Zargenlängsrichtung and / or a clipping vertically to the Zargenlängsrichtung the cover strip 35-C on the guide elements 24.

The cover strip 35-C itself is designed in several parts. According to FIG. 2, a bar base 60 is provided for attachment to the guide elements 24. The strip base 60 is formed here in cross-section T-shaped and has a lower here perpendicular mounting foot 61 and an upper here horizontal recording leg 62. The receiving leg 62 is designed such that a cover strip 63 can be placed on it. This cover strip 63 is actually visible from the outside element. The cover strip 63 can in turn be coated with a cover film 64 (FIG. 20c), for example with a self-adhesive cover film 64. An attachment is formed between the cover strip 63 and the horizontal receiving leg 62. This attachment may comprise an adhesive film 65, preferably a double-sided adhesive strip 65, which is arranged between the receiving leg 62 and the cover strip 63. Thus, the cover strip 63 can be attached to the horizontal receiving leg 62 in a simple and compact manner. However, other types of attachment of the cover strip 63 to the horizontal receiving leg 62 are conceivable, so snap-in connections or the like.

This chosen structure ensured by the multi-part particularly numerous ways to provide with simple means various variants of this cover strips 35-C to give the respective frame a preferred appearance. The bar base 60 is not changed. The different variants can be realized solely by preselection or possibly a change of the cover strip 63.

Thus, the cover strip 63 may be rectangular in cross-section as shown. However, it can also have a wide variety of other cross-sections, such as an upwardly rounded cross-section (not shown). In addition, the cover strip 63 may again consist of a variety of materials, especially those which would be less suitable for attachment directly to the frame, but which offer a particularly attractive appearance. According to a variant, the cover strip 63 then consists of a wood material or a wood substitute material. But it can also be made of a plastic or metal or for example consist of ceramic.

Other variants of cover strips 35 are characterized in that the respective cover strip 35 is used to realize one or more other functions. Variants of this embodiment are shown in FIGS. 21 to 23.

A first of the variants illustrate FIGS. 21 a - g. According to FIG. 21 a - g (see in particular FIG. 21 c), it is provided to provide a cover strip 35-D with a first guide means 70 onto which a top section te 71 with a corresponding second guide means 72 can be placed. The cover strip 35-D is basically similar to the cover strip 35 of FIG. 13 formed and arranged analogously to the frame. However, it has the first guide means 70. The first guide means 70 can be configured as a groove or a web in the main extension direction of the strips 35-D and 71 and the corresponding second guide means 72 on the top strip 71 corresponding to the first guide means 70 as a web or groove. Together, these two guide means form a sliding guide. On the top strip, a functional element can be attached or it can be directly molded to this.

According to Fig. 21, the functional element is placed on the top strip 71. As further illustrated in FIG. 21, the functional element may be designed as a top drawer 73. The attachment drawer is then preferably connected to two side walls 100, each with one of the base strips 71, which can each be placed on one of the two side frames of a drawer. If the frame length of the attachment drawer is smaller than that of the frame on which it is placed, it can be moved limited to these two frames.

The attachment drawer may be integrally formed with the baseboards in a simple configuration and e.g. Made of plastic. This embodiment is not shown here. But it can also be designed in several parts and a total - in particular in terms of the frames - be constructed as the drawer on which it is placed. He is then shorter than the lower drawer only in its direction of movement or insertion direction. These variants are shown in FIGS. 21 a) to g). In this way, the top drawer 73 is optically well matched to the drawer on which is placed.

It can also be advantageously provided that the top strip 71 engages below in the frame 100 of the attachment drawer 73, for example, clamped and / or locked. The attachment drawer has two side frames 100, each in this way on the lower frames of the lower "main drawers" 4 are attached. It may also preferably have a bottom 101, a rear wall 102 and a front panel 103 (FIG. 21 e).

Also, Fig. 22 a) shows a side view of a portion of a drawer with a frame with a structure with inner shell, outer shell and a cover strip 35-E, on which a drawer inner insert 74 is formed as a functional element. The cover strip is formed substantially like that of FIG. 13 and can be mounted here like this on the frame. The drawer inner insert 74 adjoins the cover strip 35-E laterally. It can be molded to these. Preferably, in each case one of the cover strips 35-E is formed on both sides of the drawer inner insert. The two cover strips 35-E may be formed integrally with the drawer inner insert 74. The drawer inner liner 74 may be configured to be placed in a vertical landing movement in the drawer. But it can also be provided that he can then be pivoted together with one in its final position. Such a configuration is shown in FIG. 23.

The drawer inner insert 74 is in each case easy to install. He may have one or more interior classification means. For example, have one or more walls 75 which divide it into compartments 76.

According to FIG. 24, the attachment strip 35-F has an F-shape with two vertical legs 85, 86 and a horizontal leg 87. The horizontal leg 87 forms towards the top of the actual optical termination of the frame. The one vertical leg 86 is used for fixing to one of the plurality of guide elements 24, as described, for example, to FIG. 13. As already discussed, the attachment strip 35-A shown in Fig. 13 has a T-shape. In the exemplary embodiment of FIG. 24, this T-shape is supplemented by the second vertical leg 86. The further vertical leg 86 of the top strip 35-F directly replaces an upper portion of the inner wall, in particular the inner shell 10, the frame, so that in a simple way again with this vertical leg an upper receiving channel K1 forms substantially - except for column - circumferences - is concluded. According to Fig. 25, the attachment strip 35-G is again F-shaped. Her two vertical legs 88, 89 are arranged on the frame. An upper sliding guide is not provided or is realized completely independently of the attachment strip 35-G with guide elements, not shown here. The top strip 35-G can on the frame 1 different - for example, adhesive or latching - be attached. It forms an attractive upper optical termination of the frame 1. It in turn has an F-shape with two vertical legs 88, 89 and the horizontal leg 87, wherein the two vertical legs 88, 89 are directed downward towards the frame and can rest on this.
