Definitions

• the present invention relates to an arrangement comprising:
• At least one furniture hinge having a first fitting part for attachment to a first furniture part, a second fitting part for attachment to a second furniture part, and at least one hinge axis via which the first fitting part and the second fitting part are articulated to one another , and
• At least one cover through which a gap formed between the first fitting part and the second fitting part can be covered at least in sections.
• the invention also relates to a piece of furniture with a furniture body and at least two furniture parts that can be moved relative to the furniture body, the at least two furniture parts being articulated to one another by at least one furniture hinge of the arrangement of the type to be described.
• WO 2018/204945 A1 discloses a furniture hinge for the articulated connection of two door leaves, wherein a gap formed between the door leaves can be covered by a cover.
• the furniture hinge has a bearing body with guides into which the cover can be pushed or snapped on for attachment to the furniture hinge.
• a disadvantage of this construction is that the assembly and disassembly of the cover on the furniture hinge are relatively complex. This is because the cover must be fixed to the bearing body with a relatively large clamping force so that the cover does not lower itself in an assembled state. On the one hand, this makes it more difficult to assemble the cover on the bearing body, and on the other hand, the cover can only be loosened again with considerable manual effort due to the great clamping force.
• the object of the present invention is to provide an arrangement of the type mentioned at the beginning while avoiding the disadvantages discussed above, the assembly and disassembly of the cover on the furniture hinge to be simplified. This is achieved according to the invention by the features of claim 1. Further embodiments of the invention are defined in the dependent claims.
