Definitions

  • Devices for moving a furniture part that is mounted on a furniture body of a piece of furniture.
  • guide means of the device are provided with at least one swivel arm for swiveling the furniture part, with which the furniture part can be moved from a closed position to an open position of the furniture part relative to the furniture body and back when the device is installed.
  • Such a device has, for example, a base unit with a base plate on which the guide means act in such a way that a pivot axis about which the at least one pivot arm can be pivoted is transverse to a base plate plane spanned by the base plate.
  • the devices are, for example, furniture fittings such as flap or top flap fittings. In modern furniture, a particularly space-saving and visually appealing accommodation of the movement device is desired. As a rule, the pivotable furniture part is accommodated on a furniture body via two comparable units of the movement device.
  • Such a device is, for example, from DE 20 2017 101255 U1 known.
  • WO 2017/177247 discloses a device for moving a piece of furniture.
  • the object of the present invention is to improve a device for moving a furniture part movably accommodated on a furniture body with guide means for pivoting the furniture part, in particular with regard to an aesthetically pleasing appearance of the device on the furniture.
  • the invention is based on a device for moving a furniture part accommodated on a furniture body of a piece of furniture, with guide means of the device being provided with at least one swivel arm for swiveling the furniture part, with which, when the device is installed, the furniture part can be moved from a closed position into an open position of the furniture part relative to the furniture body and can be moved back, the device having a base unit with a base plate, on which the guide means act in such a way that a pivot axis, about which the at least one pivot arm can be pivoted, is transverse to a base plate plane spanned by the base plate, and wherein there is a housing member of the base unit opposite to the base plate.
  • the device is designed in particular as a swivel fitting for flaps or top flaps on wall units.
  • the device comprises the base unit on the carcass side, the guide means with a swivel arm arrangement, preferably with an energy accumulator and/or a damping arrangement, and a mounting unit on the flap side.
  • the base unit has an inner area which results from the distance between the base plate and the housing element that can be placed on it like a housing plate, with the base plate and the housing element preferably being aligned parallel to one another.
  • the components of the moving device must be designed to be sufficiently stable.
  • a force support with the force accumulator for the opening movement or the damping arrangement for the damped closing movement of the furniture part is provided.
  • a cover element for covering the housing element on the outside, with connecting means being designed in such a way that the cover element can be attached to and removed from the housing element without tools.
  • a visual or design element is provided with the cover element, which serves the main purpose of determining the external appearance of the device on the piece of furniture.
  • one surface side of the base unit or the housing element is at least almost completely, preferably completely, covered by the attached cover element. Since the device is regularly used in a material recess of the furniture body, such as a recess present on the inside of a side wall of the furniture body, the cover element, when attached, extends parallel to the areas that enclose the material recess, for example an inside of the furniture body side wall.
  • the attached cover is matched to the remaining part of the device or the Base unit that the attached cover is flush retractable on the furniture body or the inside of the furniture body side wall.
  • the outer shape or the basic shape or the surface shape of the cover element corresponds to the housing element or the surface side of the base unit, which is formed opposite the base plate.
  • the cover element covers the base unit or the housing element, in particular at the edge, in an exactly closing manner.
  • the connecting means on the cover element are not visible or not recognizable on the outwardly directed side, which points outwards when attached.
  • the visible outside of the cover element forms a completely closed or flat or contour-free surface.
  • the cover element is preferably a thin plate-like component with a constant thickness of, for example, 0.5 to 3 millimeters thick.
  • the cover element is preferably made of a metal material or a plastic material or a composite material comprising different materials. If necessary, the cover element can include a design cover layer or a decorative surface.
  • the connecting means are designed as latching means which comprise an engaging section and an opening for latching the cover element to the housing element, with the engaging section protruding on the inside of the covering element protruding into the opening on the housing element and engaging behind an opening section of the opening for latching.
  • a secure and simple locking of the cover element on the housing element can thus be set up.
  • Protruding on the inside of the cover element means that the engaging section protrudes beyond a flat main surface of the inside of the cover element.
  • the opening is on Housing element configured, for example, as a material-free hole or as a recess or indentation, which may also have a material recess.
  • the opening on the housing element is precisely matched to the engaging section.
  • the opening fits, for example, the engaging portion in the attached state of the cover member.
  • the engagement section is advantageously in contact with the opening section. Comparatively high holding forces can thus be realized for holding the cover element on the housing element. In addition, a vibration-free and exact positioning of the covering element is possible when it is attached to the housing element.
  • the core of the invention lies in the fact that the opening section, which engages behind the engagement section for latching, is designed to be resilient.
  • a retaining clip is an element that is easy to produce and compact, with which high retaining forces can be set up.
  • the engagement section is designed as a bent web section. Since it is often technically and economically advantageous to produce the cover element from a plate material such as a metal material or a sheet metal material, the engaging section can advantageously be produced by bending a web section. A comparatively thin web or sheet metal section can be brought into a wide variety of shapes quickly and easily. The design of the engaging section, which can have exactly one bend or can have a plurality of bends at different angles and directions, is therefore varied or variable possible.
  • the engaging section comprises a foot section adjoining the cover element on the inside, wherein a head section, which is larger in external dimensions than the foot section, adjoins the foot section.
  • the rear grip enables a high connection or latching force, while at the same time a simple attachment movement or a simple threading movement of the cover element on the housing element is possible.
  • the back grip is z. B. can be set up with a shoulder between the foot section and the head section.
  • the engaging section on the cover element extends, for example, through the opening on the housing element, in the direction of the housing element to behind the opening or protruding into the intermediate region between the base plate and the housing element that follows behind it.
  • the opening advantageously has a uniform opening width. This can be produced advantageously.
  • the opening is preferably z. B. square or rectangular or square. Alternatively, a circular or differently shaped opening is conceivable.
  • a further advantage results from the fact that the opening has areas with different opening widths.
  • the opening is z. B. designed as an elongated hole, which has a partial length to the remaining partial length expanded width or larger opening width over a partial length of the elongated hole.
  • the opening may be keyhole shaped.
  • the opening section, which engages behind the engagement section for latching is of rigid design.
  • a force absorption point can thus be provided with the opening or the opening section, which prevents an unintentional release of the engaging section reaching behind from the latching with the opening.
  • the rigid opening portion is formed by an edge of the opening, for example a sheet metal edge of a cutout in the sheet metal housing member.
  • the opening section which the engagement section engages behind for latching, is designed to be resilient. It is thus possible for the cover element to be attached or latched in and released, in particular by a force which acts against the spring force provided by the resilient opening section. A desired connecting force of the cover element on the housing element can thus be specified. Because when the cover element is attached, the resilient opening section presses against the associated section of the engagement section, as a result of which a connection or latching force acts permanently to hold the cover element on the housing element.
  • the opening section also automatically resumes its spring-back initial position as soon as the opposing force to the spring force of the spring-loaded opening section is no longer effective. This is the case when the engaging portion is no longer in contact with the opening or the opening portion, ie in particular when the cover element is removed from the housing element.
  • the resilient opening section comprises a spring element.
  • the strength of the spring characteristic or the spring force that can be provided can thus be provided exactly or in the desired manner.
  • the spring element can also consist of a suitable spring material which differs from the material of the housing element. If necessary, a ready-to-use spring element can advantageously be used.
  • the spring element includes z. B. a bar spring, which extends between opposite edges of the opening and is fixed there in each case and can rebound over its length between the bearing points at the edges.
  • the invention also extends to a piece of furniture with a furniture body and a movable furniture part accommodated thereon with a device according to one of the configurations described above.
  • the furniture is, for example, a cupboard with a furniture flap such as a wall cupboard with a top flap.
  • the device is designed, for example, as a furniture or flap or top flap fitting.
  • the piece of furniture comprises two similar pivoting or flap fitting units for providing the same pivoting kinematics for the furniture flap, with the two fitting units being effective between the furniture body and the furniture flap.
  • the respective base unit of the two fitting units is attached to the furniture body.
  • the respective assembly unit of the two fitting units is attached to the furniture part or the flap, for example on the inside on a right-hand side edge or on a left-hand side edge of the furniture flap.
  • the swivel arm arrangement acts between the base unit and the mounting unit, with one end engaging the base unit and another end engaging the mounting unit, preferably in each case in an articulated manner.
  • the swing arm assembly has preferably on each fitting unit a multi-joint with several pivot arms connected in an articulated manner.
  • FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of a piece of furniture according to the invention or a wall cabinet 1 with a box-shaped furniture body 2 and a furniture part accommodated thereon, which is designed as a panel-like top flap 3 , which is shown in an open position relative to the furniture body 2 .

  • the upper flap fitting 9 has a first fitting unit 10 on the side wall 4 and a second fitting unit 11 on the side wall 5, which are constructed in the same way but for the functionally correct arrangement on the respective side wall 4 or 5 in relation to the side.
  • Each fitting unit 10 and 11 comprises a base unit 12, guide means 13 with a swivel arm arrangement 14 and a mounting unit 15.
  • the base unit 12 is connected to the mounting unit 15 via a number of articulated swivel arms of the swivel arm arrangement 14, which is fixed to an inside of the top flap 3 is fixed countersunk in a material recess.
  • the guide means 13 have an energy accumulator 21 to support the opening movement of the upper flap 3 into the open position and a damping device 22 for a dampened closing movement of the upper flap 3 into the closed position (see Fig. 4 ).
  • the force accumulator 21 has no effect on the swivel arm arrangement 14 , since the three coil springs of the force accumulator 21 , for example, are not attached to an engagement element that is present on the side of the swivel arm arrangement 14 .
  • the base unit 12 is preferably formed from a sheet metal component and comprises a planar, flat or thin base plate 16 and a flat, thin housing element 17 opposite the base plate 16 (see Fig. 4 ), for example a housing plate.

  • the width of the end section 19 designed as an attachable component corresponds to a usual width a of the side wall 4 of 16 millimeters.
  • the total width or thickness of the fitting units 10 and 11 is approximately 12 millimeters, so that accordingly the respective material recess in the side walls 4 and 5 is also approximately 12 millimeters deep, which a residual base thickness of the side walls 4, 5 in the area of the respective material recess results in approximately 4 millimeters.
  • the cover element 18 is then brought into engagement with its upper area on the housing element 17, with the lower area of the cover element 18 finally being pivoted towards the housing element 17 according to the movement arrow P2, pivoted about the point of engagement of the cover element 18 on the housing element 17 previously set up at the top.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, eine Vorrichtung zum Bewegen eines an einem Möbelkorpus bewegbar aufgenommenen Möbelteils mit Führungsmitteln zum Schwenken des Möbelteils zu verbessern, insbesondere im Hinblick auf ein ästhetisch ansprechendes Äußeres der Vorrichtung am Möbel.The object of the present invention is to improve a device for moving a furniture part movably accommodated on a furniture body with guide means for pivoting the furniture part, in particular with regard to an aesthetically pleasing appearance of the device on the furniture.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch die unabhängigen Ansprüche gelöst.This object is solved by the independent claims.

Die abhängigen Ansprüche betreffen vorteilhafte und zweckmäßige Weiterbildungen der Erfindung.The dependent claims relate to advantageous and expedient developments of the invention.

Die Erfindung geht aus von einer Vorrichtung zur Bewegung eines an einem Möbelkorpus eines Möbels aufgenommenen Möbelteils, wobei Führungsmittel der Vorrichtung mit zumindest einem Schwenkarm zum Schwenken des Möbelteils vorgesehen sind, mit welchen bei montierter Vorrichtung das Möbelteil aus einer Schließposition in eine Offenposition des Möbelteils relativ zum Möbelkorpus und zurück bewegbar ist, wobei die Vorrichtung eine Basiseinheit mit einer Grundplatte aufweist, an welcher die Führungsmittel derart angreifen, dass eine Schwenkachse, um welche der zumindest eine Schwenkarm schwenkbar ist, quer zu einer von der Grundplatte aufgespannten Grundplatten-Ebene steht, und wobei ein Gehäuseelement der Basiseinheit gegenüberliegend zur Grundplatte vorhanden ist.The invention is based on a device for moving a furniture part accommodated on a furniture body of a piece of furniture, with guide means of the device being provided with at least one swivel arm for swiveling the furniture part, with which, when the device is installed, the furniture part can be moved from a closed position into an open position of the furniture part relative to the furniture body and can be moved back, the device having a base unit with a base plate, on which the guide means act in such a way that a pivot axis, about which the at least one pivot arm can be pivoted, is transverse to a base plate plane spanned by the base plate, and wherein there is a housing member of the base unit opposite to the base plate.

Die Vorrichtung ist insbesondere als ein Schwenkbeschlag für Klappen bzw. Oberklappen an Oberschränken ausgebildet. Die Vorrichtung umfasst insbesondere die korpusseitige Basiseinheit, die Führungsmittel mit einer SchwenkarmAnordnung, vorzugsweise mit einem Kraftspeicher und/oder einer Dämpfanordnung, und eine klappenseitige Montageeinheit. Die Basiseinheit weist einen Innenbereich auf, der sich durch den Abstand zwischen der Grundplatte und dem daran aufsetzbaren Gehäuseelement wie eine Gehäuseplatte ergibt, wobei die Grundplatte und das Gehäuseelement vorzugsweise parallel zueinander ausgerichtet sind.The device is designed in particular as a swivel fitting for flaps or top flaps on wall units. In particular, the device comprises the base unit on the carcass side, the guide means with a swivel arm arrangement, preferably with an energy accumulator and/or a damping arrangement, and a mounting unit on the flap side. The base unit has an inner area which results from the distance between the base plate and the housing element that can be placed on it like a housing plate, with the base plate and the housing element preferably being aligned parallel to one another.

Bei größeren zu bewegenden Möbelklappen müssen die Bauteile der Bewegungsvorrichtung ausreichend stabil ausgestaltet sein.In the case of larger furniture flaps to be moved, the components of the moving device must be designed to be sufficiently stable.

Für einen hohen Bedienkomfort ist insbesondere eine Kraftunterstützung mit dem Kraftspeicher für die Öffnungsbewegung bzw. die Dämpfanordnung zur gedämpften Schließbewegung des Möbelteils vorgesehen.For a high level of operating comfort, in particular a force support with the force accumulator for the opening movement or the damping arrangement for the damped closing movement of the furniture part is provided.

Erfindungsgemäß ist ein Abdeckelement zur außenseitigen Abdeckung des Gehäuseelements vorhanden, wobei Verbindungsmittel derart ausgebildet sind, dass das Abdeckelement an dem Gehäuseelement werkzeuglos anbringbar und abnehmbar ist. Mit dem Abdeckelement wird ein Sicht- bzw. Designelement bereitgestellt, das dem Hauptzweck dient, das äußere Erscheinungsbild der Vorrichtung am Möbel zu bestimmen. Mit den Verbindungsmitteln ist es vorteilhaft möglich, auf einfache Weise bzw. mit wenigen Handgriffen und ohne Hilfsmittel, wie einem Werkzeug, das Abdeckelement an der Vorrichtung bzw. dem Gehäuseelement anzubringen und gegebenenfalls wieder abzunehmen. Auch ein Austausch des Abdeckelements gegen ein anderes Abdeckelement ist schnell und unkompliziert möglich. Beispielsweise ist es auch möglich, ein Abdeckelement aus einer Mehrzahl von im Erscheinungsbild verschiedenen aber ansonsten gleichen Abdeckelementen auszuwählen und an der Vorrichtung bzw. dem Gehäuseelement manuell anzubringen.According to the invention, there is a cover element for covering the housing element on the outside, with connecting means being designed in such a way that the cover element can be attached to and removed from the housing element without tools. A visual or design element is provided with the cover element, which serves the main purpose of determining the external appearance of the device on the piece of furniture. With the connecting means, it is advantageously possible to attach the cover element to the device or the housing element and, if necessary, to remove it again in a simple manner or with a few manipulations and without aids such as a tool. The cover element can also be exchanged for another cover element quickly and easily. For example, it is also possible to select a cover element from a plurality of cover elements that differ in appearance but are otherwise identical and to attach it manually to the device or the housing element.

Bei montierter Vorrichtung am Möbel ist eine Flächenseite der Basiseinheit bzw. des Gehäuseelements vom angebrachten Abdeckelement zumindest nahezu vollständig vorzugsweise komplett abgedeckt. Da die Vorrichtung regelmäßig in einer Materialausnehmung des Möbelkorpus wie einer innenseitig an einer Seitenwand des Möbelkorpus vorhandenen Ausnehmung eingesetzt ist, erstreckt sich das Abdeckelement im angebrachten Zustand parallel zu den Bereichen, welche die Materialausnehmung umschließen also zum Beispiel eine Innenseite der Möbelkorpus-Seitenwand.When the device is mounted on the piece of furniture, one surface side of the base unit or the housing element is at least almost completely, preferably completely, covered by the attached cover element. Since the device is regularly used in a material recess of the furniture body, such as a recess present on the inside of a side wall of the furniture body, the cover element, when attached, extends parallel to the areas that enclose the material recess, for example an inside of the furniture body side wall.

Vorzugsweise ist das angebrachte Abdeckelement so abgestimmt auf den verbleibenden Teil der Vorrichtung bzw. der Basiseinheit, dass das angebrachte Abdeckelement bündig versenkbar ist am Möbelkorpus bzw. der Innenseite der Möbelkorpus-Seitenwand.Preferably, the attached cover is matched to the remaining part of the device or the Base unit that the attached cover is flush retractable on the furniture body or the inside of the furniture body side wall.

Das Abdeckelement entspricht in der Außenform bzw. in der Grundform bzw. in der Flächenform dem Gehäuseelement bzw. der Flächenseite der Basiseinheit, welche gegenüber der Grundplatte sich ausbildet. Das Abdeckelement deckt die Basiseinheit bzw. das Gehäuseelement insbesondere randseitig exakt abschließend ab.The outer shape or the basic shape or the surface shape of the cover element corresponds to the housing element or the surface side of the base unit, which is formed opposite the base plate. The cover element covers the base unit or the housing element, in particular at the edge, in an exactly closing manner.

Vorzugsweise sind die Verbindungsmittel am Abdeckelement auf der nach außen gerichteten Seite, die im angebrachten Zustand nach außen zeigt, nicht ersichtlich bzw. nicht erkennbar. Im einfachen Fall bildet die sichtbare Außenseite des Abdeckelements eine komplett geschlossene bzw. ebene bzw. konturfreie Fläche.Preferably, the connecting means on the cover element are not visible or not recognizable on the outwardly directed side, which points outwards when attached. In the simplest case, the visible outside of the cover element forms a completely closed or flat or contour-free surface.

Das Abdeckelement ist vorzugsweise ein dünnes plattenartiges Bauteil mit gleichbleibender Dicke von zum Beispiel 0,5 bis 3 Millimeter Dicke. Das Abdeckelement besteht vorzugsweise aus einem Metallmaterial oder einem Kunststoffmaterial oder einem Verbundmaterial umfassend verschiedene Materialien. Gegebenenfalls kann das Abdeckelement eine Design-Deckschicht bzw. eine Dekoroberfläche umfassen.The cover element is preferably a thin plate-like component with a constant thickness of, for example, 0.5 to 3 millimeters thick. The cover element is preferably made of a metal material or a plastic material or a composite material comprising different materials. If necessary, the cover element can include a design cover layer or a decorative surface.

Erfindungsgemäß sind die Verbindungsmittel als Rastmittel ausgebildet, die einen Eingreifabschnitt und eine Öffnung zur Verrastung des Abdeckelements mit dem Gehäuseelement umfassen, wobei zur Verrastung der innseitig an dem Abdeckelement vorstehende Eingreifabschnitt an der Öffnung an dem Gehäuseelement hineinragt und einen Öffnungsabschnitt der Öffnung hintergreift.According to the invention, the connecting means are designed as latching means which comprise an engaging section and an opening for latching the cover element to the housing element, with the engaging section protruding on the inside of the covering element protruding into the opening on the housing element and engaging behind an opening section of the opening for latching.

Damit kann eine sichere und einfache Verrastung des Abdeckelements am Gehäuseelement eingerichtet werden. Innenseitig am Abdeckelement vorstehend bedeutet, dass der Eingreifabschnitt über eine ebene Hauptfläche der Innenseite des Abdeckelements übersteht. Die Öffnung ist am Gehäuseelement zum Beispiel als materialfreies Loch oder als Vertiefung bzw. Eindellung ausgestaltet, die gegebenenfalls zusätzlich eine Materialaussparung besitzt.A secure and simple locking of the cover element on the housing element can thus be set up. Protruding on the inside of the cover element means that the engaging section protrudes beyond a flat main surface of the inside of the cover element. The opening is on Housing element configured, for example, as a material-free hole or as a recess or indentation, which may also have a material recess.

Die Öffnung an dem Gehäuseelement ist auf den Eingreifabschnitt exakt abgestimmt. Die Öffnung nimmt zum Beispiel den Eingreifabschnitt im angebrachten Zustand des Abdeckelements passend auf.The opening on the housing element is precisely matched to the engaging section. The opening fits, for example, the engaging portion in the attached state of the cover member.

Vorteilhaft ist bei angebrachtem Abdeckelement der Eingreifabschnitt mit dem Öffnungsabschnitt in Kontakt. Damit lassen sich vergleichsweise hohe Haltekräfte realisieren zum Halten des Abdeckelements an dem Gehäuseelement. Außerdem ist eine vibrationsfreie und exakte Positionierung des Abdeckelements im angebrachten Zustand am Gehäuseelement möglich.When the cover element is attached, the engagement section is advantageously in contact with the opening section. Comparatively high holding forces can thus be realized for holding the cover element on the housing element. In addition, a vibration-free and exact positioning of the covering element is possible when it is attached to the housing element.

Der Kern der Erfindung liegt darin, dass der Öffnungsabschnitt, welcher der Eingriffabschnitt zur Verrastung hintergreift, federnd ausgebildet ist.The core of the invention lies in the fact that the opening section, which engages behind the engagement section for latching, is designed to be resilient.

Eine andere vorteilhafte Modifikation der Erfindung ergibt sich dadurch, dass der Eingreifabschnitt als Halteklammer ausgebildet ist. Eine Halteklammer ist ein einfach herstellbares und kompakt bauendes Element, mit dem hohe Haltekräfte einrichtbar sind.Another advantageous modification of the invention results from the fact that the engaging portion is designed as a retaining clip. A retaining clip is an element that is easy to produce and compact, with which high retaining forces can be set up.

Es ist überdies vorteilhaft, dass der Eingreifabschnitt als umgebogener Stegabschnitt ausgebildet ist. Da es häufig technisch und wirtschaftlich vorteilhaft ist, das Abdeckelement aus einem Plattenmaterial wie einem Metallmaterial bzw. einem Blechmaterial herzustellen, ist der Eingreifabschnitt vorteilhaft durch Biegen eines Stegabschnitts herstellbar. Ein vergleichsweise dünner Steg- bzw. Blechabschnitt, kann schnell und unkompliziert in unterschiedlichste Formen gebracht werden. Die Ausgestaltung des Eingreifabschnitts, der genau eine Umbiegung aufweisen kann oder mehrere Umbiegungen in verschiedenen Winkeln und Richtungen aufweisen kann, ist dadurch auf vielfältige Weise bzw. variabel möglich.It is also advantageous that the engagement section is designed as a bent web section. Since it is often technically and economically advantageous to produce the cover element from a plate material such as a metal material or a sheet metal material, the engaging section can advantageously be produced by bending a web section. A comparatively thin web or sheet metal section can be brought into a wide variety of shapes quickly and easily. The design of the engaging section, which can have exactly one bend or can have a plurality of bends at different angles and directions, is therefore varied or variable possible.

Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Variante der Erfindung umfasst der Eingreifabschnitt einen innenseitig an dem Abdeckelement anschließenden Fußabschnitt, wobei sich ein in der Außenabmessung zum Fußabschnitt größerer Kopfabschnitt an den Fußabschnitt anschließt.According to an advantageous variant of the invention, the engaging section comprises a foot section adjoining the cover element on the inside, wherein a head section, which is larger in external dimensions than the foot section, adjoins the foot section.

Mit dem Eingreifabschnitt ist eine hintergreifende Verbindung vorteilhaft bzw. einfach realisierbar. Der Hintergriff ermöglicht eine hohe Verbindungs- bzw. Verrastungskraft, wobei gleichzeitig eine einfache Anbringbewegung bzw. eine einfache Einfädelbewegung des Abdeckelements an dem Gehäuseelement möglich ist.With the engagement section, a connection that engages behind is advantageous or can be implemented easily. The rear grip enables a high connection or latching force, while at the same time a simple attachment movement or a simple threading movement of the cover element on the housing element is possible.

Der Hintergriff ist z. B. mit einem Absatz zwischen dem Fußabschnitt und dem Kopfabschnitt einrichtbar. Der Eingreifabschnitt am Abdeckelement reicht im angebrachten Zustand zum Beispiel durch die Öffnung an dem Gehäuseelement, in Richtung zum Gehäuseelement hin bis hinter die Öffnung bzw. hineinragend in den dahinter anschließenden Zwischenbereich zwischen der Grundplatte und dem Gehäuseelement.The back grip is z. B. can be set up with a shoulder between the foot section and the head section. In the attached state, the engaging section on the cover element extends, for example, through the opening on the housing element, in the direction of the housing element to behind the opening or protruding into the intermediate region between the base plate and the housing element that follows behind it.

Vorteilhaft weist die Öffnung eine einheitliche Öffnungsbreite auf. Dies ist vorteilhaft herstellbar. Die Öffnung ist vorzugsweise z. B. viereckförmig bzw. rechteckig oder quadratisch. Alternativ ist eine kreisförmige oder anders geformte Öffnung denkbar.The opening advantageously has a uniform opening width. This can be produced advantageously. The opening is preferably z. B. square or rectangular or square. Alternatively, a circular or differently shaped opening is conceivable.

Ein weiterer Vorteil ergibt sich dadurch, dass die Öffnung Bereiche mit unterschiedlicher Öffnungsbreite aufweist.A further advantage results from the fact that the opening has areas with different opening widths.

Damit lässt sich eine exakte Positionierung des Abdeckelements und eine hohe Haltekraft des an der Öffnung angreifenden Eingreifabschnitts an der Öffnung erreichen. Die Öffnung ist z. B. als Langloch ausgebildet, das über eine Teillänge des Langlochs eine zur verbleibenden Teillänge erweiterte Breite bzw. größere Öffnungsbreite aufweist. Die Öffnung kann zum Beispiel schlüssellochförmig sein.Exact positioning of the cover element and a high holding force of the engagement section engaging on the opening can thus be achieved at the opening. The opening is z. B. designed as an elongated hole, which has a partial length to the remaining partial length expanded width or larger opening width over a partial length of the elongated hole. For example, the opening may be keyhole shaped.

Weiter ist es von Vorteil, dass der Öffnungsabschnitt, welcher der Eingreifabschnitt zur Verrastung hintergreift, starr ausgebildet ist.Furthermore, it is advantageous that the opening section, which engages behind the engagement section for latching, is of rigid design.

Damit kann mit der Öffnung bzw. dem Öffnungsabschnitt eine Kraftaufnahmestelle bereitgestellt werden, welche ein unbeabsichtigtes Lösen des hintergreifenden Eingreifabschnitts aus der Verrastung mit der Öffnung ausschließt. Vorzugsweise ist der starre Öffnungsabschnitt von einem Rand der Öffnung gebildet, zum Beispiel ein Blechrand eines Ausschnitts in dem aus Blech gebildeten Gehäuseelements.A force absorption point can thus be provided with the opening or the opening section, which prevents an unintentional release of the engaging section reaching behind from the latching with the opening. Preferably, the rigid opening portion is formed by an edge of the opening, for example a sheet metal edge of a cutout in the sheet metal housing member.

Erfindungsgemäß ist der Öffnungsabschnitt, welcher der Eingreifabschnitt zur Verrastung hintergreift, federnd ausgebildet. Damit ist ein Anbringen bzw. ein Einrasten und ein Lösen des Abdeckelements insbesondere durch eine Kraft möglich, welche gegen die von dem federnden Öffnungsabschnitt bereitgestellte Federkraft wirkt. Damit kann eine gewünschte Verbindungskraft des Abdeckelements an dem Gehäuseelement vorgegeben werden. Denn bei angebrachtem Abdeckelement drückt der federnde Öffnungsabschnitt gegen den dazugehörigen Abschnitt des Eingreifabschnitts, wodurch dauerhaft eine Verbindungs- bzw. Rastkraft zum Festhalten des Abdeckelements am Gehäuseelement wirkt.According to the invention, the opening section, which the engagement section engages behind for latching, is designed to be resilient. It is thus possible for the cover element to be attached or latched in and released, in particular by a force which acts against the spring force provided by the resilient opening section. A desired connecting force of the cover element on the housing element can thus be specified. Because when the cover element is attached, the resilient opening section presses against the associated section of the engagement section, as a result of which a connection or latching force acts permanently to hold the cover element on the housing element.

Mit dem federnden Verhalten des federnden Öffnungsabschnitts nimmt der Öffnungsabschnitt außerdem selbsttätig wieder seine zurückgefederte Ausgangsstellung ein, sobald die Gegenkraft zur Federkraft des federnden Öffnungsabschnitts nicht mehr wirkt. Dies ist der Fall, wenn der Eingreifabschnitt nicht mehr in Kontakt ist an der Öffnung bzw. dem Öffnungsabschnitt, also insbesondere dann, wenn das Abdeckelement vom Gehäuseelement abgenommen ist.With the resilient behavior of the resilient opening section, the opening section also automatically resumes its spring-back initial position as soon as the opposing force to the spring force of the spring-loaded opening section is no longer effective. This is the case when the engaging portion is no longer in contact with the opening or the opening portion, ie in particular when the cover element is removed from the housing element.

Erfindungsgemäß ist es auch, dass der federnd ausgebildete Öffnungsabschnitt ein Federelement umfasst.It is also according to the invention that the resilient opening section comprises a spring element.

Damit kann die Federcharakteristik bzw. die bereitstellbare Federkraft in ihrer Stärke exakt bzw. auf gewünschte Weise bereitgestellt werden.The strength of the spring characteristic or the spring force that can be provided can thus be provided exactly or in the desired manner.

Das Federelement kann außerdem aus einem geeigneten Federmaterial bestehen, das sich vom Material des Gehäuseelements unterscheidet. Gegebenenfalls kann vorteilhaft ein fertig zur Verfügung stehendes Federelement verwendet werden.The spring element can also consist of a suitable spring material which differs from the material of the housing element. If necessary, a ready-to-use spring element can advantageously be used.

Das Federelement umfasst z. B. eine Stabfeder, die sich zwischen gegenüberliegenden Rändern der Öffnung erstreckt und dort jeweils fixiert ist und über ihre Länge zwischen den Lagerpunkten an den Rändern ausfedern kann.The spring element includes z. B. a bar spring, which extends between opposite edges of the opening and is fixed there in each case and can rebound over its length between the bearing points at the edges.

Die Erfindung erstreckt sich außerdem auf ein Möbel mit einem Möbelkorpus und einem daran aufgenommenen bewegbaren Möbelteil mit einer Vorrichtung nach einem der vorhergehend beschriebenen Ausbildungen.The invention also extends to a piece of furniture with a furniture body and a movable furniture part accommodated thereon with a device according to one of the configurations described above.

Das Möbel ist zum Beispiel ein Schrankmöbel mit einer Möbelklappe wie ein Oberschrank mit einer Oberklappe. Die Vorrichtung ist beispielsweise als Möbel- bzw. Klappen- bzw. Oberklappenbeschlag ausgebildet.The furniture is, for example, a cupboard with a furniture flap such as a wall cupboard with a top flap. The device is designed, for example, as a furniture or flap or top flap fitting.

In der Regel umfasst das Möbel zwei gleichartige Schwenk- bzw. Klappenbeschlag-Einheiten zum Bereitstellen einer seitengleichen Verschwenk-Kinematik der Möbelklappe, wobei die beiden Beschlag-Einheiten zwischen dem Möbelkorpus und der Möbelklappe wirksam sind. Die jeweilige Basiseinheit der beiden Beschlag-Einheiten ist am Möbelkorpus befestigt. Die jeweilige Montageeinheit der beiden Beschlag-Einheiten ist am Möbelteil bzw. der Klappe befestigt zum Beispiel innenseitig an einem rechten Seitenrand bzw. an einem linken Seitenrand der Möbelklappe. Zwischen der Basiseinheit und der Montageeinheit wirkt die Schwenkarmanordnung, mit einem Ende angreifend an der Basiseinheit und einem anderen Ende angreifend an der Montageeinheit, vorzugsweise jeweils gelenkig angreifend. Die Schwenkarm-Anordnung weist vorzugsweise an jeder Beschlageinheit ein Mehrgelenk mit mehreren gelenkig verbundenen Schwenkarmen auf.As a rule, the piece of furniture comprises two similar pivoting or flap fitting units for providing the same pivoting kinematics for the furniture flap, with the two fitting units being effective between the furniture body and the furniture flap. The respective base unit of the two fitting units is attached to the furniture body. The respective assembly unit of the two fitting units is attached to the furniture part or the flap, for example on the inside on a right-hand side edge or on a left-hand side edge of the furniture flap. The swivel arm arrangement acts between the base unit and the mounting unit, with one end engaging the base unit and another end engaging the mounting unit, preferably in each case in an articulated manner. The swing arm assembly has preferably on each fitting unit a multi-joint with several pivot arms connected in an articulated manner.

The base unit 12 is connected to the mounting unit 15 via a number of articulated swivel arms of the swivel arm arrangement 14, which is fixed to an inside of the top flap 3 is fixed countersunk in a material recess.

Außerdem weisen die Führungsmittel 13 einen Kraftspeicher 21 zur Unterstützung der Öffnungsbewegung der Oberklappe 3 in die Offenstellung und eine Dämpfervorrichtung 22 für eine gedämpfte Schließbewegung der Oberklappe 3 in die Schließstellung auf (s. Fig. 4). In den betreffenden Figuren 4, 7, 11 und 12 ist der Kraftspeicher 21 ohne Wirkung auf die Schwenkarm-Anordnung 14, da die hier beispielhaft drei Schraubenfedern des Kraftspeichers 21 nicht eingehängt sind an einem Eingriffelement, das auf der Seite der SchwenkarmAnordnung 14 vorhanden ist.In addition, the guide means 13 have an energy accumulator 21 to support the opening movement of the upper flap 3 into the open position and a damping device 22 for a dampened closing movement of the upper flap 3 into the closed position (see Fig. 4 ). In the concerned figures 4 , 7 , 11 and 12 If the force accumulator 21 has no effect on the swivel arm arrangement 14 , since the three coil springs of the force accumulator 21 , for example, are not attached to an engagement element that is present on the side of the swivel arm arrangement 14 .

Die Basiseinheit 12 ist vorzugsweise aus einem Blechbauteil gebildet und umfasst eine ebene, flache bzw. dünne Grundplatte 16 und ein zur Grundplatte 16 gegenüberliegende flaches dünnes Gehäuseelement 17 (s. Fig. 4), zum Beispiel eine Gehäuseplatte. Das Gehäuseelement 17 ist gemäß Fig. 1 und 2 mit einem Abdeckelement 18 bzw. einer Abdeckplatte abgedeckt.The base unit 12 is preferably formed from a sheet metal component and comprises a planar, flat or thin base plate 16 and a flat, thin housing element 17 opposite the base plate 16 (see Fig. 4 ), for example a housing plate. The housing element 17 is according to Figures 1 and 2 covered with a cover element 18 or a cover plate.

Außerdem ist stirnseitig an der Basiseinheit 12 ein Stirnabschnitt 19 vorhanden, dessen Außenseite quer zur Ebene der Grundplatte 16 ausgerichtet ist. Durch eine rechteckförmige Aussparung 20 in dem Stirnabschnitt 19 greifen die betreffenden Schwenkarme der Schwenkarm-Anordnung 14. Die Breite des als Ansteckbauteil ausgebildeten Stirnabschnitts 19 entspricht einer üblichen Breite a der Seitenwand 4 von 16 Millimetern. Die Gesamtbreite bzw. Dicke der Beschlageinheiten 10 und 11 beträgt circa 12 Millimeter, so dass demgemäß die jeweilige Materialaussparung in den Seitenwänden 4 und 5 eine Tiefe von ebenfalls circa 12 Millimeter beträgt, womit sich eine Restbodenstärke der Seitenwände 4, 5 im Bereich der jeweiligen Materialaussparung zu circa 4 Millimeter ergibt.In addition, on the front side of the base unit 12 there is a front section 19 whose outside is aligned transversely to the base plate 16 level. The relevant pivoting arms of the pivoting arm arrangement 14 reach through a rectangular recess 20 in the end section 19. The width of the end section 19 designed as an attachable component corresponds to a usual width a of the side wall 4 of 16 millimeters. The total width or thickness of the fitting units 10 and 11 is approximately 12 millimeters, so that accordingly the respective material recess in the side walls 4 and 5 is also approximately 12 millimeters deep, which a residual base thickness of the side walls 4, 5 in the area of the respective material recess results in approximately 4 millimeters.

In Fig. 3, welche die Beschlageinheit 10 am Möbelkorpus 2 ohne das Möbelteil bzw. ohne die Oberklappe 3 darstellt, ist angedeutet, wie das Abdeckelement 18 an der fertig an der Seitenwand 4 montierten Basiseinheit 12 (ohne Stirnabschnitt 19) manuell anbringbar ist. Hierfür wird das Abdeckelement 18 in der zum Gehäuseelement 17 stimmigen Ausrichtung, wobei ein oberer Rand des Abdeckelements 18 oben positioniert ist und eine flächige Innenseite 18a des Abdeckelements 18 zum Gehäuseelement 17 zeigend, an das Gehäuseelement 17 gemäß Bewegungspfeil P1 heranbewegt. Dies erfolgt, indem das Abdeckelement 18 zur Vertikalen etwas geneigt ist bzw. mit dem der obere Rand des Abdeckelements 18 zu einem oberen Rand des Gehäuseelements 17 hin geneigt ist, was Fig. 3 verdeutlicht. Dann wird das Abdeckelement 18 mit seinem oberen Bereich am Gehäuseelement 17 in Eingriff gebracht, wobei schließlich der untere Bereich des Abdeckelements 18 gemäß Bewegungspfeil P2 an das Gehäuseelement 17 herangeschwenkt wird, verschwenkt um die zuvor oben eingerichtete Stelle des Eingriffs des Abdeckelements 18 am Gehäuseelement 17. Mit dem Ende des Heranschwenkens in Richtung P2, wenn der untere Bereich des Abdeckelements 18 mit dem Gehäuseelement 17 in Kontakt gelangt, wird der untere Bereich des Abdeckelements 18 am Gehäuseelement 17 ebenfalls in Eingriff gebracht wird, was unter einer Verrastung geschieht.In 3 , which shows the fitting unit 10 on the furniture body 2 without the furniture part or without the top flap 3, it is indicated how the cover element 18 can be attached manually to the base unit 12 (without end section 19) that is already mounted on the side wall 4. For this purpose, the covering element 18 is moved towards the housing element 17 according to movement arrow P1 in the alignment consistent with the housing element 17, with an upper edge of the covering element 18 being positioned at the top and a flat inner side 18a of the covering element 18 pointing towards the housing element 17. This is done in that the cover element 18 is slightly inclined to the vertical or with which the upper edge of the cover element 18 is inclined toward an upper edge of the housing element 17, which 3 clarified. The cover element 18 is then brought into engagement with its upper area on the housing element 17, with the lower area of the cover element 18 finally being pivoted towards the housing element 17 according to the movement arrow P2, pivoted about the point of engagement of the cover element 18 on the housing element 17 previously set up at the top. At the end of the pivoting in the direction P2, when the lower portion of the cover member 18 comes into contact with the case member 17, the lower portion of the cover member 18 is also engaged with the case member 17, which occurs under snapping.

Die vorbeschriebene Anbringung des Abdeckelements 18 am Gehäuseelement 17 erfolgt mit nachfolgend näher erläuterten Verbindungsmitteln.The above-described attachment of the cover element 18 to the housing element 17 takes place with connecting means explained in more detail below.

Die Verbindungsmittel umfassen obere Rastmittel 23 und untere Rastmittel 24.The connecting means comprise upper latching means 23 and lower latching means 24.

Die oberen Rastmittel 23 umfassen einen zweiteiligen Eingreifabschnitt 25 am Abdeckelement 18 und eine Öffnung 26 am Gehäuseelement 17 zur Einrichtung einer Verrastung des Abdeckelements 18 am Gehäuseelement 17. Die Öffnung 26 umfasst zwei gleiche Rechtecköffnungen 29, 30. Der Eingreifabschnitt 25 umfasst einen ersten Stegabschnitt 27 und einen zweiten Stegabschnitt 28, wobei die beiden Stegabschnitte 27, 28 im oberen Randbereich auf der Innenseite 18a des Abdeckelements 18 vorhanden bzw. befestigt sind. Die beiden Stegabschnitte 27, 28 sind von einem oberen Rand des Abdeckelements 18 gleich weit nach unten versetzt und in Richtung des Randverlaufs des oberen Randes voneinander beabstandet. Die Stegabschnitte 27, 28 sind identisch und jeweils als zweifach umgebogene Blechstreifen gebildet mit einem nach oben offenen L-förmigen Absatz an der Innenseite 18a. Der Stegabschnitt 27 greift mit seinem L-förmigen Absatz durch die erste Rechtecköffnung 29 im Gehäuseelement 17 und der Stegabschnitt 28 greift mit seinem L-förmigen Absatz durch die zweite Rechtecköffnung 30 im Gehäuseelement 17, die zur Rechtecköffnung 29 identisch ist. Die Rechtecköffnungen 29 und 30 stellen mit ihren Öffnungsrändern jeweils einen starren Öffnungsabschnitt bereit, an dem der jeweilige Stegabschnitt 27 bzw. 28 im Verrastungszustand hintergreift. Damit ist eine Verrastung des Abdeckelements 18 oben am Gehäuseelement 17 einrichtbar durch das Ansetzen gemäß P1. Die Verrastung ermöglicht das oben beschriebene Heranschwenken des Abdeckelements 18 gemäß Pfeil P2 und ein Wegschwenken entgegen P2.The upper latching means 23 comprise a two-part engagement section 25 on the cover element 18 and an opening 26 on the housing element 17 for establishing a latching of the cover element 18 on the housing element 17. The opening 26 comprises two identical rectangular openings 29, 30. The engaging section 25 comprises a first web section 27 and a second web section 28, the two web sections 27, 28 being present or attached in the upper edge region on the inside 18a of the cover element 18. The two web sections 27, 28 are offset from an upper edge of the cover element 18 the same distance down and spaced apart in the direction of the edge profile of the upper edge. The web sections 27, 28 are identical and each formed as a twice bent sheet metal strip with an upwardly open L-shaped shoulder on the inside 18a. The web section 27 reaches with its L-shaped shoulder through the first rectangular opening 29 in the housing element 17 and the web section 28 reaches with its L-shaped shoulder through the second rectangular opening 30 in the housing element 17 which is identical to the rectangular opening 29 . The rectangular openings 29 and 30 each provide a rigid opening section with their opening edges, on which the respective web section 27 or 28 engages behind in the latched state. This means that the cover element 18 can be latched on top of the housing element 17 by attaching it according to P1. The latching allows the cover element 18 to be pivoted in accordance with arrow P2 and pivoted away in the opposite direction to P2, as described above.

Eine weitere Verrastung des Abdeckelements 18 mit den unteren Rastmitteln 24 bzw. an dessen unterem Bereich mit einem Bereich unten am Gehäuseelement 17 ist mit einem Eingreifabschnitt 31 jeweils mit einem umgebogenen Stegabschnitt 32 und 33 am Abdeckelement 18 einerseits und am Gehäuseelement 17 andererseits mit einer Öffnung 34 umfassend Rechtecköffnungen 35, 36 und jeweils einem federnden Öffnungsabschnitt 37, 38 einrichtbar (s. Fig. 4, 6). Die federnden Öffnungsabschnitte 37, 38 sind vorzugsweise als dünne Stabfedern aus einem Federstahl ausgestaltet.A further latching of the cover element 18 with the lower latching means 24 or in its lower region with a region below on the housing element 17 is provided with an engaging section 31, each with a bent web section 32 and 33 on the cover element 18 on the one hand and on the housing element 17 on the other hand with an opening 34 comprising rectangular openings 35, 36 and one resilient opening section 37, 38 each (see Fig. Figures 4, 6 ). The resilient opening sections 37, 38 are preferably designed as thin bar springs made of spring steel.

Am Ende der Heranschwenk-Bewegung des Abdeckelements 18 gemäß P2 kommt gleichzeitig jeweils der Stegabschnitten 32, 33 an dem dazugehörigen federnden Öffnungsabschnitt 37, 38 in Anlage. Der Stegabschnitt 32 drückt dabei mit einer schrägen vorderen Flanke 32a gegen den federnden Öffnungsabschnitt 37, der aufgrund einer von einer Person aufgebrachten Andrückkraft des Abdeckelements 18 in Richtung des Gehäuseelements 17 etwas elastisch, quer zur Längsrichtung des federnden Öffnungsabschnitts 37 sich verbiegt, bis der Stegabschnitt 32, mit einem unteren Rand der Flanke 32a, am Öffnungsabschnitt 37 vorbeikommt und hinter diesem verrastet. Dabei federt der Öffnungsabschnitt 37 zurück und kommt an einer weiteren bzw. hinteren schrägen Flanke 32b des Stegabschnitts 32 zur verrastenden Anlage. Das Abdeckelement 18 wird dabei im letzten Montageschritt quasi geringfügig an das Gehäuseelement 17 herangezogen, wobei die Flanke 32b hinter den Stabfedern einschnappt. Dabei drückt der federnde Öffnungsabschnitt 37 bzw. die Stabfeder den Stegabschnitt 32 nach innen zum Gehäuseelement 17 hin.At the end of the pivoting movement of the cover element 18 according to P2, the web sections 32, 33 come into contact with the associated resilient opening section 37, 38 at the same time. The web section 32 presses with a sloping front flank 32a against the resilient opening section 37, which, due to a pressing force applied by a person on the cover element 18 in the direction of the housing element 17, bends somewhat elastically, transversely to the longitudinal direction of the resilient opening section 37, until the web section 32, with a lower edge of the flank 32a , passes the opening section 37 and locks behind it. The opening section 37 springs back and comes to rest against a further or rear oblique flank 32b of the web section 32 in a latching manner. In the last assembly step, the cover element 18 is pulled almost slightly against the housing element 17, with the flank 32b snapping in behind the rod springs. The resilient opening section 37 or the bar spring presses the web section 32 inwards towards the housing element 17 .

Auf entsprechende Weise verrastet der Stegabschnitt 33 an der Rechtecköffnung 36 mit dem federnden Öffnungsabschnitt 38 bzw. der Stabfeder.In a corresponding manner, the web section 33 latches at the rectangular opening 36 with the resilient opening section 38 or the rod spring.

Im Verrastungszustand des Abdeckelements 18 liegt die Innenseite 18 des Abdeckelements 18 vorzugsweise flächig auf einer Außenseite des Gehäuseelements 17.In the latched state of the cover element 18, the inner side 18 of the cover element 18 preferably lies flat on an outer side of the housing element 17.

Ein Abnehmen des verrasteten Abdeckelements 18 von dem Gehäuseelement 17 erfolgt auf entsprechende Weise aber in umgekehrter Reihenfolge der beschriebenen Montageschritte. Die parallel zur Ebene der Innenseite 18 sich erstreckende als Stabfedern ausgebildete Öffnungsabschnitte 37, 38 sind beidseitig der jeweiligen Rechtecköffnung 35, 36 in jeweils zwei Lagernasen mit inneren Lagernasen 39 und äußeren Lagernasen 40 durchgreifend gelagert. Die Lagernasen 39, 40 weisen hierzu passende Durchgangsöffnungen auf. Die Enden der Stabfedern sind außerhalb der äußeren Lagernasen 40 winklig umgebogen, so dass die Stabfedern in axialer Richtung gesichert sind.The latched cover element 18 is removed from the housing element 17 in a corresponding manner but in the reverse order of the assembly steps described. The opening sections 37, 38, which extend parallel to the plane of the inner side 18 and are designed as bar springs, are mounted on both sides of the respective rectangular opening 35, 36 in two bearing lugs with inner bearing lugs 39 and outer bearing lugs 40. The bearing lugs 39, 40 have suitable through-openings for this purpose. The ends of the bar springs are bent at an angle outside of the outer bearing lugs 40 so that the bar springs are secured in the axial direction.

Eine nicht zur Erfindung gehörende Beschlageinheit 10 zeigen die Figuren 7 bis 10. Die Verbindungsmittel sind auch hier als Rastmittel ausgestaltet, mit einem innen an einem Abdeckelement 41 vorstehend ausgebildeten Eingreifabschnitt, der vier pilzkopfförmige, untereinander identische Rastköpfe 42-45 umfasst. Die Rastköpfe 42-45 weisen zwei im oberen Bereich des Abdeckelements 41 positionierte Rastköpfe 42 und 43 und zwei im unteren Bereich des Abdeckelements 41 positionierte Rastköpfe 44 und 45 auf. Die beiden oberen Rastköpfe 42, 43 liegen in Richtung des Randverlaufs des Abdeckelements 41 etwas weiter voneinander beabstandet als die beiden unteren Rastköpfe 44, 45.Show a fitting unit 10 not belonging to the invention the Figures 7 to 10 . Here, too, the connecting means are designed as latching means, with an engaging section which protrudes on the inside of a cover element 41 and comprises four mushroom-shaped latching heads 42-45 which are identical to one another. The locking heads 42-45 have two locking heads 42 and 43 positioned in the upper area of the covering element 41 and two locking heads 44 and 45 positioned in the lower area of the covering element 41. The two upper latching heads 42, 43 are somewhat further apart from one another in the direction of the edge profile of the cover element 41 than the two lower latching heads 44, 45.

Entsprechend weist ein Gehäuseelement 46 der Beschlageinheit 10 ebenfalls Rastmittel der Verbindungsmittel auf, welche zu dem Eingreifabschnitt bzw. den Rastköpfen 42-45 passende Öffnungen 47-50 umfasst. Die in der Platte des Gehäuseelements 46 materialaussparenden vier Öffnungen 47-50 sind jeweils in quer ausgerichteter Schlüssellochform ausgebildet. Die Schlüssellochform weist einen Kreisbereich 51 und einen Langlochbereich 52 auf, die miteinander verbunden sind. Die Öffnungen 47-50 weisen entsprechend zwei obere Öffnungen 47,48 und zwei untere Öffnungen 49, 50 auf. Im jeweiligen Zusammenspiel der einander zugeordneten Rastköpfe 42-45 einerseits mit den Öffnungen 47-50 andererseits kann das Abdeckelement 41 an das gemeinsam mit der Basiseinheit 12 am Möbelkorpus 2 angebrachte Gehäuseelement 46 lösbar und werkzeuglos auf einfache Weise befestigt werden. Zunächst wird das zumindest annähernd parallel zum ausgerichtete Abdeckelement 41 mit seiner Innenseite voraus und in richtiger Ausrichtung mit dem oberen Rand obenliegend gemäß dem Pfeil P3 so an das Gehäuseelement 46 heranbewegt, dass die vier Rastköpfe 42-45 in den Kreisbereich der jeweils zugehörigen Öffnung 47-50 so weit eintaucht, bis ein zu einem Schaftabschnitt 54 der Rastköpfe 42-45 durchmessergrößerer vorderer Kopfabschnitt 53 des jeweiligen Rastkopfs 42-45 hinter dem jeweiligen Kreisbereich 51 vorhanden ist. Dann liegt die flächige Innenseite des Abdeckelements 41 an der flächigen Außenseite des Gehäuseelements 46 an. Im nächsten Montageschritt wird das Abdeckelement in Richtung gemäß dem Pfeil P4 (s. Fig. 7) bzw. zum Stirnabschnitt 19 an der Basiseinheit 12 verschoben. Dabei gelangt jeweils der Schaftabschnitt 54 der Rastköpfe 42-45 in den dazugehörigen Langlochbereich 52 der jeweiligen Öffnung 47-50. Die zylindrischen Schaftabschnitte 54 weisen einen Durchmesser auf, der geringfügig kleiner ist als die Breite des Langlochbereichs 52, so dass am Ende der Montage des Abdeckelements 41 der jeweilige Schaftabschnitt 54 an den gegenüberliegenden Rändern des dazugehörigen Langlochbereichs 52 und einem abgerundeten Ende 52a des Langlochbereichs 52 berührend in Anlage kommt.Correspondingly, a housing element 46 of the fitting unit 10 also has latching means of the connecting means, which includes openings 47-50 that match the engagement section or the latching heads 42-45. The four openings 47-50 material-saving in the plate of the housing member 46 are each formed in a transversely oriented keyhole shape. The keyhole shape has a circular area 51 and an elongated hole area 52 which are connected to one another. The openings 47-50 have two upper openings 47,48 and two lower openings 49,50, respectively. In the respective interaction of the associated latching heads 42-45 on the one hand and the openings 47-50 on the other hand, the cover element 41 can be detachably attached to the housing element 46 attached to the furniture body 2 together with the base unit 12 and without tools in a simple manner. First, the cover element 41, which is aligned at least approximately parallel to the cover element 41 with its inner side first and in the correct alignment with the upper edge on top, is moved towards the housing element 46 according to the arrow P3 in such a way that the four locking heads 42-45 move into the circular area of the respective associated opening 47- 50 dips in until a front head section 53 of the respective locking head 42-45 with a larger diameter than a shank section 54 of the locking heads 42-45 is present behind the respective circular area 51. Then the flat inside of the cover element 41 is in contact with the flat outside of the housing element 46 . In the next assembly step, the cover in the direction according to the Arrow P4 (see 7 ) or to the end section 19 on the base unit 12. The shank section 54 of the locking heads 42-45 reaches the associated elongated hole area 52 of the respective opening 47-50. The cylindrical shank sections 54 have a diameter that is slightly smaller than the width of the elongated hole area 52, so that when the cover element 41 is installed, the respective shank section 54 touches the opposite edges of the associated elongated hole area 52 and a rounded end 52a of the elongated hole area 52 comes into plant.

Das Abdeckelement 41 deckt dann das Gehäuseelement 46 und einen umgebogenen Rand des vorne an der Basiseinheit 12 vorhandenen Stirnabschnitts 19 auf der Innenseite der Seitenwände 4, 5 komplett ab.The cover element 41 then completely covers the housing element 46 and a bent edge of the end section 19 present at the front of the base unit 12 on the inside of the side walls 4, 5.

Die Demontage des Abdeckelements 41 vom Gehäuseelement 46 erfolgt in umgekehrter Reihenfolge der beschriebenen Montageschritte ebenfalls in wenigen Handgriffen.The cover element 41 is removed from the housing element 46 in the reverse order of the assembly steps described, also in a few simple steps.
