Definitions

• the present invention relates to an actuator with at least one actuator for moving a movable furniture part and with a locking device for inhibiting a movement of the actuator.
• the invention relates to a piece of furniture with at least one actuator of the type to be described.
• Such actuators are in particular attached to the furniture body of a piece of furniture, wherein the actuator is provided for moving a highly movable flap.
• Object of the present invention is to propose an actuator of the type mentioned, which allows a controlled movement of the actuator.
• the locking device comprises a arranged in or on the actuator lock, which can be unlocked to enable the movement of the actuator by a key.
• the lock can be unlocked, as well as - if appropriate - locked.
• the actuator is pre-assembled in or on the furniture and the movement of the actuator is to be inhibited in the closed position of the movable furniture part, so it may be beneficial to provide a passage opening on the furniture, the insertion of the key from a position outside the furniture position in the on or in the actuator arranged lock allowed.
• a non-contact key lock system may include, for example, an electronic data record and / or a non-contact RFID transponder.
• the proposed locking device with the lock and the key is used as a mounting safeguard for the "empty" actuator, ie no movable furniture part - in particular a highly movable furniture flap - is mounted on the actuator for moving a furniture flap mounted on the pivotally mounted actuator (in particular on an actuating arm) between a vertical position closing a cabinet compartment in a furniture carcass and an upwardly moved open position
• the torque acting on the actuator can be selectively adjusted to the weight of the furniture flap to be moved, ie with heavy furniture flaps, a relatively high torque must be provided as a preload force for the actuator arm ppe is hinged, so there is considerable danger that the actuator arm rocket through the acting spring device massively in the opening direction, thereby injuring the assembly personnel.
• the spring device acts on the actuator - preferably pivotable about a horizontal axis - in the opening direction, there is a considerable risk of injury by non-mounted flap by an upwardly deflecting actuator.
• the locking device with the lock and the key the actuator can be locked in its fully open position.
• the actuator can therefore not be moved against the biasing force of the spring device due to the lock. In this way, a trouble-free installation of the flap on the locked in the fully open position actuator is possible.
• the key is secured by a releasable holding device on or in the actuator and that the releasable holding device releases the key until the assembly of the flap on the actuator.
• the lock release key is available only when the flap has been properly mounted on the actuator. Namely, the flap is securely attached to the actuator, so is the danger of an upward aus theden actuator largely banned. Only after the flap assembly releasable holding device releases the key, after which the locking device unlocked and then the actuator is freely movable between a closed position and an open position.
• the key unlocks the locking device only as long as the key is inserted in the lock.
• the actuator is freely movable only with a key inserted in the lock. If the key is removed from the lock, the locking device can automatically block movement of the actuator.
• the actuator usually has a power train, which in the simplest case comprises the actuator and the spring device acting on the actuator.
• the locking device locks at least one element of this power train, so the spring device and / or the actuator.
• the power train has an acting between the spring device and the actuator transmission mechanism (either a lever mechanism and / or a transmission), wherein at least one element of the transmission mechanism can be locked by the locking device.
• the locking device has at least one locking element, by which the element of the power train relative to a plexfesten part - preferably the housing of the actuator - is lockable. It may be advantageous if the locking element is movable by the key from a locking the element of the power train position into a release position in which the locking element is unlocked from the element of the power train.

• a locking device 7, which locks the intermediate lever 6 in the illustrated embodiment and inhibits it from pivoting about the rotation axis S.
• the actuator 5 in the form of the actuating arm 5a in its fully open position can be locked.
• This locking device 7 is therefore part of a mounting safeguard for the "empty" actuating arm 5a, which means that no furniture flap is hinged in.
• the actuator 5 in the form of the actuating arm 5a has a fastening device 8 for releasable connection to a (not shown) flap-side fitting part, whereby a furniture flap with the actuator arm 5a is connectable.
• the key 9, which is necessary for unlocking the locking device 7, can not be removed when the flap is not mounted.
• the key 9 can only be released from the fastening device 8 if a flap is properly connected to the fastening device 8. Only after the flap assembly on the actuator arm 5a, the key 9 is released and then the locking device 7 can be supplied, whereby the lock is releasable and the actuating arm 5a between the closed position and the open position is pivotable.

• the spring device 3 presses on a spring bearing 10 against the intermediate lever 6, wherein the position of the spring bearing 10 relative to the intermediate lever 6 by a setting device 11 is variably adjustable. In this way, the force of the spring device 3 can be selectively adjusted to the flap still to be attached.
• the locking device 7 comprises a lock 7a into which the key 9 can be inserted after assembly of the flap (at right angles to the drawing plane), whereby the locking element 7c of the locking device 7 can be unlocked by the intermediate lever 6. If the locking element 7c is released from the intermediate lever 6, the actuating arm 5a can also be moved unhindered again.

• a fastening element 8 associated with the retaining element 15 with a displaceably mounted actuating element 15a, which is provided for applying the coupling part 14a.
• the movable, peg-shaped adjusting element 15a is namely pressed in the assembly of the flap 12 in the direction of the arrow Y, whereby the coupling part 14a moves about the axis 14c and a release of the locking element 9a of the key 9 takes place.
